Oh, yeah, to add insult to injury, we had just finally gotten internet hooked up at our new place on Wednesday. Last night (Thursday, 1 day after getting internet), hubby was playing on the computer looking up YouTube videos on Internet Explorer (I use Firefox), he suddenly says "there a virus alert, what should I do?" I immediately said, "Don't click on anything" because we had recently gotten an alert from work that there are a lot of viruses going around that look like security alerts but are actually viruses. Plus, I had one about a year ago at work that looked exactly like Microsoft Security Suite. Well, guess what? That was what was popping up. It was too late. He didn't click on anything, but neither had I a year ago but still the virus worked it's way in to the computers within seconds. Every few seconds it would pop up with a security alert. It wouldn't let me run a virus scan either. Last year, the IT guy was able to run some virus software and it was fine. This time I was on my own because it was a home. I knew I shoulda bought a security program when I was picking up the router! Stupid! Anyway, this time it was also popping up Internet Explorer about every 5-15 minutes and going to either viagra.com, porno.org, or adult.com. I tried running the outdated virus program (Symantec that hadn't been updated in a long time since we hadn't had internet). Nope. Then I figured out that I could get it to run by opening up My Computer, right clicking C drive and then check for viruses. Well, after running for nearly 80 minutes, not even 1 risk was identified. I had tried downloading McAfee, but it wouldn't let me run the install file once I got it saved to the computer. So, I finally gave up after about 2 hours of fiddling. I downloaded the McAfee file at work as well as free program, so hopefully, I can get it off there tonight. By the time I shut down last night, it wasn't letting me get on the internet at all. It said that it couldn't find a connection even though the Wireless Connections dialog box said it was a great signal and connected. I was able to trick it into letting me open the McAfee file by taking the battery out of the laptop and then turning back on and clicking on McAfee as soon as I saw it (wouldn't turn off by going through Start). But, then the McAfee installer said it couldn't get an internet connection. That's when I went to bed. I also saw about trying to restart in safe mode by hitting F8 or whatever.

Heh, had to smile at that. Don't worry, the dog didn't get a beating. I just explained that he was the bane of my existence. He didn't seem to understand as he kept putting his bouncy ball at my feet and looking eagerly for it to be thrown. He's actually a pretty good dog, but for whatever reason, he chose that moment to become Satan, lol. I did contact UPS through their website to see if there was any way to get some reimbursement for what was ruined (without mentioning specific items , just price) because this would have been totally avoided had the delivery person used some common sense and put it where the dog couldn't get it. Like 100 feet away by the mailbox, or even just 30 feet away at the other end of the carport. Or on the counter by the door in the garage.

You may or may not know that I won the $100 prize in the recent contest. I was so excited. I ordered Chester Cheeky and the Impulse Jack Rabbit along with the Climax Bursts Toy Cleaner. I was surprised to see the arrival date as today as I chose the economy 8+ day shipping and was expecting it later. Needless to say, I was popping my seams to get home and try it out. I had thrown in the Jack Rabbit because it was the daily deal that day and was a super price. However, I was much much more excited about the Chester Cheeky. It looked so cute, rechargable and waterproof, yeah! Well, I saw that they listed it as left in garage. We have a carport attached to a small old garage, so we park in the carport and go through the garage to get in. I didn't see the box when I was walking in, so once I put my purse and pizza away, I went to see if they left it outside someplace weird. Well, our dog happens to be tied up near the door so that he can get in under the carport for shelter. The UPS person apparently left the garage door open enough for him to get in or just leaned it against the garage door where the dog can easily get at it. The dog totally destroyed the box! I found the charging port first, which looked fine except packed with snow. Then I found the Climax Burst, which has a hole popped in it near the top but otherwise okay. Then I found the Impulse Jack Rabbit under part of the shipping box, and the corner of the Jack Rabbit box was torn but the toy was totally fine. Then I finally find Chester Cheeky in the snow with tooth marks all over and tears in the soft rubbery part! Also, totally packed with snow around the joystick. I'm afraid to even test the Chester Cheeky because it probably has snow jammed into the workings, which I can kind of see through a particularly large tear. I am so mad at the dog for tearing up the box but mainly the delivery guy who obviously left it in a dangerous spot. At the very least, the dog might have peed on it, he doesn't have any idea what kind of behavior the dog has. Besides that, a total waste of the money! Yeah, I only paid for $68 of the total bill, which would cover about the Jack Rabbit and Climax Bursts with a little to spare for the Chester Cheeky (given the half-off price of the Jack Rabbit), but then that whole $100 was wasted! I just don't know what to do. I am so frustrated I can't even think! Sorry to vent, everyone!

I'd start with a smaller vibe (diameter of 1 inh or less) and work up from there. Personally, I didn't like the smaller vibes (short yes, thin no) and jumped right to the 1.5 inchers and up. However, whatever size you start with, load up with lube. No matter how turned on you might be, lube is always a good idea with toys.

I can relate, Moonstar. Although I've only ever gotten boxes from TT (love that they are totally without identifiers), I have had those bubble envelopes from a certain other online toy company, one just a couple weeks ago. At first I had the unpleasant surprise and disconcerting feeling that everyone had to have known exactly what I was getting based on the shape. Once I got to thinking though, I realized that it was unlikely that anyone would have bothered to feel it like I did nor would have guessed what it was unless they were sick minded like me, lol. It's good to know that it's a possibility and that I could request a box if I was truly concerned about it. Thankfully, I've never even seen our delivery person (so I've only lived here for 3 weeks, lol), and I don't have any curious kids or other family members who might get the package other than hubby. I hope this experience doesn't put you off. I do have to say that I've ordered from several online sources, and TT really is the only one I've been truly impressed with as far as discretion and customer service. Plus, the site is quite attractive.

I agree with Mikayla's suggestion. If you look at the bottom of the toy descriptions, there is usually a listing of the dimensions of the toy (in a pinkish, purplish color text). I'd shoot for an insertable length of 4-6" with a diameter of less than 1.25". I usually start with lower vibes and don't place them right on the clit because it does feel too intense. You can also try playing with them by having panties or even pants/skirt between her and the vibe to lessen that intensity.

So we're finally getting out of this old trailer we have been renting from hubby's parents. They kept saying how great of shape it was in, and yeah, at first it seemed okay. But that was because the guy and wife were using it as a cabin, so there wasn't the wear and tear of everyday living. Then in-laws used it for like 6 months to a year while building their current house. So, yeah, decent shape for a 25+ year old trailer house. But when we were living in it constantly for 3 years, it got to show it's real age and was contantly getting something else to fix. Plus, moving it twice didn't help. So it's been leaking from the roof, and God knows how much mold is in the place. It is sooooo dusty too! I dust and within hours there is a faint covering of dust. I don't know how it gets so dusty. So, it's been a big problem for my already bad allergies and asthma, and I think it's been exacerbating my skin condition too (ichthyosis). In addition to that, hubby who has never been sick with allergies and rarely even got colds or anything has had chronic sinus symptoms for over the last year and has had problems with what we believe to be allergies (can't get him to consistently take Claritin or Zyrtec, oh, no!). So when the in-laws announced that they were putting their house up for sale again (second time in 2 years) and again we would have to be kicked out so they could live in the trailer, I decided to start looking for a new place, whether renting or buying. After about 10 months of looking, hubby finally conceeded that we had to get out of there not matter what his parents did. I found a little place on the lake for half the rent we were paying. It's really cute and in great shape (built in 1948), and the landlord is allowing us to install laundry hookups and will reimburse us for that. It's perfect! We have been slowly going through things and moving bits at a time, and hopefully, next week hubby can get some help to move the big stuff so we can truly move in and get out of that health-hazard trailer.

Hehe! Maybe I'll have to go down during the Black Friday sale and get me one of those. I think it's cool. And yes, nice boobs!

So I recently got the Layaspot which was listed in Meaghan's favorites under Staff REcommendations, and I couldn't be happier! I was kinda skeptical about the less than traditional shape of the thing, but I like the variation in intensity. The first setting is so low that even the most skittish newbie could handle it, and then it goes all the way up to super nova for those of us who like a really strong vibe. And I have to say that the programs are actually pretty good. Normally, I don't care for those programmed settings where they pulse at various rates, but these were different enough and strong enough that it was interesting for me. I love that it's not quite so sexual-looking as most other vibrators, so I wouldn't be quite so nervous about it getting left out. Heck, I even used it once for a sore neck because hubby wasn' available for a neck rub. Worked pretty good, actually. Can't complain about the orgasms, either. I just love new toys, don't you?

Wow, I am soooo on your side Mikayla. Yeah, I know there are times that I'm just "not into it" but I can't help getting in the mood when hubby looks at my a certain way or starts kissing my neck, whatever. And I almost always end up not regretting it and really enjoying myself. Yes, I've gained quite a bit of weight since we got married, and I do feel self-conscious about it. BUT, hubby loves me and doesn't care. He's just as horny as when we were dating, and I love him and care for him and am aroused by him even though he too has gained a bit of weight. I'm thinking that she has some issues that she's not admitting to. Maybe it's self-consciousness, maybe she just doesn't love him anymore, maybe it's something else entirely. But, it sounds like she's not even trying. There are times that I just go through the motions and pretend to be enjoying myself just to "get it over with" but even then I find that I am as into it as if I had been aroused from the very start. Most of the time, it's just a mindset thing, and once I push myself into sex mode, I'm there. I'm so there. It's not often for me, but maybe it is all the time for her. Maybe she's stressing about what the kids are doing, how they're gonna pay bills, whatever, but she's certainly not thinking about how her husband feels when she rejects him like that. There's give and take in every relationship, and she needs to understand that.

It's true to an extent. There's no body attacked to the fake penis, so of course there is going to be differences there. Also, you are completely controlling all the action with a fake penis, so you can go as slow, hard, fast, deep, etc. as you want/need. That said, there are many new toys that have the feel of a real penis, so the part that actually goes in is pretty dang close. The hardness and feel of the "skin" is going to be really, really close, so I don't know that it's going to make so much of a difference that only toys will feel good and real penises won't. My guess is that you are more comfortable controlling how much you are penetrated, which allows your vaginal muscles to relax, and you get more turned on which also allows you to open up more. Plus, you are working with someone who knows just how to turn you on and pleasure you--YOU! It wouldn't surprise me that the ex hurt you with penetration since he didn't turn you on properly, and you likely got even more nervous the more times this happened. Sounds like he was a real winner. Forget him and practice pleasuring yourself so that when you do get a nice guy you know how to guide him to your sweet spots.

Neva mind! Got it.

Hrrrm, I still can't get into my PMs or send them, and I know I've got 188 posts! I haven't been on much lately, so I might be clicking the wrong thing...

I guess the biggest one would be my vampire fantasies. I love the idea of vampires, sexy, mysterious, mischeivious, and totally dangerous. But, I'd be totally turned off if anything like that actually happened. The biting would hurt too much, the danger would be too scary. Of course, there's lots of 'little' fantasies that I'd never want to happen. Y'know, the ones where you see a guy or girl and wonder what they'd be like in bed. Or maybe what your best friend is like naked. Or how hot it would be to have a threesome. Like it was already said before, most of these fantasies would ruin the trust between me and my hubby. Besides, they wouldn't be nearly as exiting as what I come up with in my head.

It totally depends for me. Sometimes nothing more than the previous wetness. I've never actually "squirted" before, so I don't know how I am for that. But, sometimes I get a bit of whitish thin secretions after. Same consistency as my natural lubrication, just slightly whitish. Sometimes I just get really wet. It seems to have to do with how much water/liquids I've consumed that day. If I've been bad and not drunk much, I'm fairly dry. If I was good and drank a lot, I'm pretty wet.

Oh, lord, one of my fantasies...Still haven't been tied up yet, but working on it, lol. I'd want to also be blindfolded, way hot. Perhaps some music too, low volume. I'd want to be teased until I practically cry. I usually get too ticklish and squirm away, but I love it. This way, there's no escape... I totally want this whip and to be teased with it, but not actually whipped. Just light smacks and tickles. I'd want really light teasing touches everywhere, especially my arms and stomach, so sensitive. Or my back if I was stomach down. Definitely some oral! And just about everything else...

Oh yes! old sweat=disgust. Clean, new sweat=HOT! Mmm, love that new crotch smell...

Yeah, I would recommend only, ONLY, using warming or tingling products that are specially made for genital or anal area use, such as the Durex Play Tingling. I can also vouch for the intense sensation that brought. It was too much for hubby and I to use at first. We both felt that it was too intense. After a while, we were able to start using it again, but we only use it very occasionally. Anything like Ben Gay, Icy Hot, etc, should NEVER be used on the genitals or anal areas. Not only will it hurt like crazy, you could be overdosing as was said earlier. You could apply it above the buttocks on the lower back, but be very, very careful to not accidentally get it on the genitals, anus, eyes, etc.

We both like it. When we were first married, I was only on birth control for a month, so I was still the same size I'd been through high school (34C). They pretty much just covered the sides and part of the top of his shaft, but since he's most sensitive on the bottom and head, it was okay. Then I gained about 40 pounds over the next year, and I got to be a 36DD. Now I can't see his cock at all when he's on the downstroke and then suddenly it pops up. I think its great, totally a turn on. Except for the fat of the rest of the body, lol.

I can relate: my hubby didn't much like oral at first either. I agree with ladylove, communicate outside the bedroom. Ask him what he'd like to try with oral, what he didn't like, etc. My hubby hates getting touched lightly, he wants a firm touch but not hard. I always felt bad when he didn't like it, but he didn't really complain. He just said that it didn't do a whole lot for him. He couldn't really say why. That's why we kept trying different methods. It took most of a year before he really started liking oral on him. I'd just suck a little here and there and try different things. I found that drinking more water so that I have more saliva helps (plus it's more healthy for me, lol). He likes it nice and wet and slippery. Also, holding the base with one hand and pumping up and down (no teeth!) really gets him going. His head is so sensitive that it kinda hurts if I lick it or touch it at all! He says my tongue is too rough, at least on that spot. But he does like getting licked along the bottom of the shaft. It goes a lot better, and more progress is made, when you talk openly and nonjudgementally about what is good and what is not so good. Don't take it personally! What's good for me isn't necessarily what is good for hubby, so I need to tell him, guide him and vice versa.

Lol, I just finished "Again and Again" by Susan Johnson, which was good, but it didn't excite me as much as I'd thought it would. It did get me in the mood, I guess, but not as much as my "educational" book. Maybe because it wasn't as detailed in describing the scenes and acts. I too am fairly visual and I like those hardcore closeup shots, so that sort of translates into books where I need that graphic description of what their doing and how it feels, y'know? I'd like to find a book that really gets detailed like the "Art of Sexual Play" was, but more of a novel form rather than educational.

Yeah, something like that is on my wish list. I've read many reviews saying that it is a definite advantage, but should also be used with the addition of lube on any toys, fingers, or cocks that will be joining the fun. And practice, practice, practice! Start slow and small and gradually, and I do mean gradually!, work your way up.

I like watching hubby masturbate. At first, I wasn't too into it, but I would watch. It was just weird that it was okay for me to do that (no sex before marriage, y'all!). Anyway, it didn't take me long to start to enjoy it, and it seems hubby likes to be watched too. Sometimes he'll do it privately if he feels like it. Sometimes we'll masturbate together, watching each other. Suggestion for starting: Do you guys watch porn together? If so, start masturbating yourself, and if he goes to play with you, playfully push his hands to his cock. Or, let him "accidentally" catch you during playtime and he should automatically start getting aroused and playing with himself. Or just talk to him and ask if he'd be willing to try it. The more open the two of you are the better the sex (and everything else).

Elise, you bring up a good point. If I was with hubby, I'd definitely spring for the DVDs. Although, he has a bit of a moral issue with porn, so we really don't have much. It would have to be an educational DVD, which I just got one. We'll see how that goes over, lol. Not that he doesn't enjoy and get aroused by them, he just feels badly that he has watched them because they promote sex before or completely without marriage. Anyway, I guess my preference changes with my mood. If I want some discreet, long period of time stimulation, I'd pick up the book. If I want quick, hardcore results, I'd go for the DVDs.

I was thinking about whether to go with a book or a dvd for my last masturbation romp, and I finally decided to go with a dvd. Unfortunately, it turned out to be rather poorly shot and generally laughable rather than hot. I have only one book with anecdotes of sexual encounters called The Art of Sexual Play, and I can't remember who it's by. I really enjoyed the ideas presented, and the experiences were so incredibly hot that I had to ask whether they were imaginary or actually real, lol. Anyway, I just got my next book, Again and Again, in my last TT order a few days ago. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but I think that I'm leaning towards books as being more stimulating. I find myself more able to get into the scene and let myself get worked up whereas I find myself critiquing the movie acting, actors/actresses, and generally quality of the movie rather than getting turned on. What about you? And what's your favorite book or movie and why?
