Biting My Tongue

One of the interesting things I've noticed about being a substitute teacher is that I'm often invisible to the regular faculty. This allows me to indulge my pure nosiness by being a fly on the wall to the occasionally interesting conversations.   Today, some of the teachers were discussing the Halloween parties they attended over the weekend. One of them complained about how, "wild and completely immature," the fellow guests were at the party she attended. "Except for me and my friend who

Nocturnal Observations

My dog has developed a Pavlovian response to the removal of my clothes. He runs to my side of the bed and barks at my night stand, upon which sits the bag of Dingo Bones. These treats are employed whenever Mr. Sweet and I are rocking the casbah. Needless to say, Der Houndt was quite put out when Mommy got undressed and actually climbed into bed to go to sleep.   After a friend helped me test drive her Hitatchi Magic Wand, I simply had to get one for myself. It arrived today, and it was

Half Magic Doubled

For the past several months, Mr. Sweet's and my luck in the lifestyle could best be described as Half Magic .   We had a date scheduled with some great new friends with whom we'd been trying too hook up for a few months. All of us were eagerly looking forward to a night of great food (to be cooked by the guys), fun conversation, and hot sex. It had been so long since Mr. Sweet and I had a successful swinger date that I was more than a little nervous.   Thankfully, I had nothi

Final Countdown

It's official. In 32 days, my hubby will begin his special assignment in Washington, D.C. He'll be there every Monday to Thursday (returning Friday morning) for four months.   To say that I am unhappy about this assignment would be an understatement--especially since it's voluntary. I know he wouldn't have accepted it if he didn't think it would be helpful to his career and to the organization as a whole. And it's for that reason I have to put on my big girl panties and deal.   There i

Like, Oh My God, It’s a Murder Mystery!

It’s the 25-year class reunion for the Westinburg High Class of 1985. It’s Retro Night, and everyone is dressed in their best 80’s fashion to celebrate the good ole’ days. But the good ole’ days weren’t always good, because one Westinburger has been murdered! Can the alumni figure out who the murderer is before another one bites the dust?   That's right, folks, I've finally finished writing the "script" for our next murder mystery party. We secured the venue today, and I'm really starting t

Friends without benefits

I guess sometimes we have to learn things the hard way. I had become close friends with a playmate. It was strictly a best-friends-with-benefits thing. But due to recent drama-filled events, we've had to change that status.   Some of our other friends (who were unfortunate bystanders to the incident in question) have advised me to simply walk away. Alas, I lack the ability to turn my back on a friend. While he reacted poorly in the situation, I can understand why he felt the way he did.

Say Goodbye to the Summer

The kids have already returned to school (for a measly three days), but Labor Day weekend always seems to signal the official end to the summer.   Ours has gone by in blur. Friday night, Mr. Sweet played poker with our friends, while I hung out with the other wives. Saturday was our son's birthday party, which was an all-day deal. Sunday we went to our daughter's game (she cheers for a youth football league) and visited my mom.   Today, we spent some time doing post-party cleanup and ta

Oh What a Night

Foreword: Names have been changed to protect the not-so-innocent.   Wow. All I can say is WOW.   The party we attended last night was well underway by the time we arrived. As soon as we got out of the car, Jessica and Roger came running out to greet us. Apparently, they had really missed us and were thrilled to see us. We were very glad to see them too, but slightly surprised at their enthusiasm. Ariel & Eric were right behind them, also quite happy to say hello. They're one of the

Pickled Liver, Anyone?

This was certainly one of the busier weekends we’ve had this summer, but it was also one of the most fun. Friday night we went to a hibatchi restaurant to see a friend’s band play. We had a great meal, and a lovely time with friends—old and new. Drink of choice: Jack and Coke.   On Saturday, we attended the birthday party of our neighbor’s daughter. Most of the family and friends are from New York, and they are a hoot to hang out with. We had to drag the kids kicking and screaming home

Mother Nature Versus Lady Luck

Well, it appears I've managed to piss off both of these ladies recently. As I posted in my last blog entry, I missed out on some playtime last Saturday due to my being biologically inconvenienced. Well, it seems that wasn't enough for me. My period not only decided to stick around for twice the normal amount of time, the flow pattern (sorry, that's the nicest way I know to put it) was really off, too. As this was the second month in a row I've had this issue, I've decided to call the doc. S

Lady in Waiting

We are planning to attend a house party on Saturday, as are some of our newer acquaintances. This would be the perfect opportunity for us to get back in the game, so to speak. The typical pre-party flirting has begun, and I’d actually begun to get excited about the party. Evidently, I’m due for a karmic kick in the pants, because I got my period on Tuesday (almost a week early).   My excitement has deflated like a leaky air mattress. I’m trying not to give up all hope, since there is a sl

Weight a Minute . . .

After discovering the need to adjust Der Houndt’s harness, I decided to weigh him. This required me to step on the scale with and without the pup. I was shocked to discover that I am now at my highest non-pregnant weight again. This put me in kind of a funk, as I had started trying to exercise and eat better a few weeks ago.   Before the funk could fully set in, a couple gentlemen I met at the house party we attended last month started to chat me up. It felt really good to realize that n

The Mis-adventures of Wonder Wife

I decided to play dress up tonight for my honey and stuffed myself into my red satin corset, lacy blue panties, white stripper boots, and Wonder Woman cape. (Yes, I know Wonder Woman didn’t wear a cape, but they sell them for $5.00 at Six Flags Great Adventure and I bought one on a lark.) Oh yes, and let’s not forget a gold bangle bracelet on each wrist.   After pictures were taken, Wonder Wife took her favorite thug into custody, intent on using her powers of seduction to fight for truth,

The Lazy River

Over the last week or so, Mr. Sweet and I have talked about the changes in our lifestyle pace since we began. We started off on the roaring rapids, with loads of opportunities coming our way. We then settled into more of a patio boat pace. We were moving along with a steady group of friends, hooking up when time allowed. Then we were dry docked for awhile, due to my mom’s illness. (She’s doing MUCH better now, by the way). We tried restarting the motor on the patio boat, but it just wasn’t

Girls on trampolines

Saturday night Mr.Sweet and I attended a house party which promised to be a great time. Several of the “old gang” from our favorite Meet & Greet (now disbanded) were set to attend, as well as some new (to us) folks.   We arrived early, as the hosts are close friends and we were in charge of transporting some of the refreshments and party supplies. This gave us plenty of time to relax and greet our friends and the other guests.   To help get the party started, I volunteered to join th
