A Full Nights Sleep

Last night our son went down to sleep in his crib at 10:10 at night. I went to bed at 11:15 about an hour later and curled up with Jason for a cuddle and then some much needed rest. Imagine my shock when I awoke at 8:20 in the morning and my breasts were swollen to easily three times there normal size.

Milk was trickling out of one breast and had pooled under my back and the sternum was filled with the white stuff too. The sheets were soaked and I was chilled from the wet spots that were more than damp.

I woke Jason up and asked him if he had gotten up during the night with the baby. He said no. Jason asked me if I had gotten up to the feed pickle during the night. I pulled back the covers and put his hands on my breasts ... no further explanation was necessary there.

Then Jason said bolt upright, and announced every parents worst fear. "Is he dead?" I chuckled. No, I can hear him cooing in his crib.

We both stared at the clock in our room as we did the math. Our son, who will be 3 months old tomorrow had slept for just over 10 hours straight, without feeding or waking us.

We woke refreshed, recharged and feeling really great. What a memorable day this is.

After being up for an hour Pickle and Jason left for a man day, and I was left at home by myself. You know what I did? I went back to bed for another two hours. What a luxury.

I am starting to come out of the fog that has been the past number of months of new motherhood and serious health issues.

With my PICC line out of my body, the home nurses gone, my infection on the mend and the baby starting to have better hours, my mood is now leveling out and I can see a light at the end of this very long dark tunnel we've been in.

Today has already kicked ass. I am grateful.

Tonight is Sultry our bath house event for couples, and we have plans on fucking like bunnies. Can you say "baby sitter"?

Mockery of the Perfect Penis

So yesterday I made a post about the man who wrote to me about his "perfect penis" and how he has a "gift". I have received numerous responses regarding this letter and they have all been silly and fun.

That post of mine inspired yet another reader to send me this

Hi,

So I’m a relatively attractive almost-28-year-old. I take issue with the recent claim by a relatively attractive 28-year-old, as recounted on your blog, that his penis is perfect. My own phallus has always received positive reviews and I will not ignore a gauntlet thus thrown. If he wishes to engage in a dick-measuring contest with the world, let it hereby be known that he will not be unopposed! The aesthetic qualities of my penis can be substantiated by miscellaneous photography, with and without adhesive googly eyes.

You are also welcome to perform in-person measurements and other examinations and evaluations, as deemed appropriate, pleasant, and/or entertaining.



This is exceptionally funny to me for a variety of reasons.

1. I know the man who wrote me the above email.
2. I have touched the penis of the man above and find it to be noteworthy.
3. I have an actual photo of his penis with googly eyes on it (courtesy of his girlfriend)
4. My friends penis would surely and easily win any contest against yesterdays perfect penis.


Ok, this now concludes me mocking the man who gave me so much to laugh at. Back to regular scheduled programming.

From My In-Box

As you have likely figured out, my email account is one that most people would not want to get near. And for good reason too. People write me about all sorts of personal issues, disclose things they should keep private and ask questions of a very intimate nature.

Most people are clever though and can figure out how to write a request without coming across as egotistical or creepy.

I say "most people" because there is always the exceptions to this rule.

Yesterday a man sent me an email, this is it, in its entirety


Hi, So i am a relatively attractive 28 year old who has become bored with many things in my life. Ever since i started having sex I have been told that I have a gift, some have even said perfect, penis. There are many things in the sexual realm that i stilll haven\'t been a part of and now i feel i am ready to do something more \"adventureous\", i guess would be the word. I don\'t know if this is the place for me, and if not i would appreciate if you could point me in a better direction, but some sort of amateur thing might be what i am looking for. In any event I am interested in your site and what you do and i look forward to further communication....




Now I think I am supposed to in awe of his gift. Because as you can imagine, I've *never* met any other man in life or in email claiming to have a PERFECT PENIS. Wow. Jeez. Really?

I can only presume that this man assumes (incorrectly) that his "supposed" perfect penis, will get him something special at The Lounge.

Yet if he had spent the time to read the Libido Events and Libido Lounge website he would have known that penis attributes are irrelevant to membership and to me personally.

Further if he had read the website he would clearly understand that we are not a porn site, so looking for something "amateurish" with us is also a mistake.

Then he asks me to point him in the right direction. To where? For what? I know nothing about this man.

I digress, I know a little about him. Lets see .... he's a 28 year old man, who has led a boring life and who can use email but not read a website. He has a perfect penis and a gift. He is not ego filled, no not-at-all. And he has found my website and email address, oh lucky me and thinks I will be the one to save him from his sexual boredom.


I guess I can count myself fortunate that there was no attached photo of his appendage to his odd email.

Some days I am torn between deleting such emails and putting my head through a wall.

Welcome to my professional life.

Disease & Infections

Mondays are notoriously for me a long day that I rarely look forward to. However today as a Monday, is an exception. Thus far my day has been filled with joy.

Let me illustrate three reasons why:



1. Someone owes me a substantial chunk of change and has for quite some time. It finally got to the point where asking for the return on the money was futile. I took the matter to court. And the court ordered in my favor - I won.

The company involved was given thirty days to make payment. The thirty days came and went. I contacted them to remind them that they were now in contempt of a court order. An apology was given.

Two weeks ago, I told them if the payment was not here immediately I would take the matter back to court and notify media sources about their business practices.

This morning a call came that the check will be in my hands this week. This is so long over due, and an issue that I am glad to have out of my life.


2. This morning my Infectious Disease Doctor phoned me to say that my latest MRI results were promising. This translates to the fact that my Osteomyletis is much better and has stopped spreading currently. We are not out of the woods yet, it can flare up again as its a disease notorious for recurrence. But since its obvious growth is no longer visible, my PICC line will be removed this week. This news is incredible.

I can not wait to have a shower, it has been almost 7 weeks since my last one. I am so eager to immerse my arm in water and be done with this rigorous treatment regime, as it has taken a serious toll on not just myself, but the whole family too.

3. The baby has been sleeping in his own crib for five nights now, instead of in bed with us. Last night he slept from 9 till 2, then awoke for a feed. Then he slept till 7. This means that more frequent sex will be happening again as we have our bed back. And last nights sex was awesome. Jason *had* some guilt over the baby being in his own crib now, but after the sex happened he soon forgot about his misplaced guilt.


However as with all positives there is usually a negative. I am off to the lab shortly. With having C-Diff as a secondary infection due to my long term antibiotic use, it appears that the baby now has it. This bug is dangerous and apparently difficult to get out of ones system. There is a new prescription awaiting me, though this time an oral dose and it transfers to breast milk at a 20% rate, so we are hoping that it is enough to alleviate the babies symptoms. Because of this infection, I will continue to see the ID doctor.

Tousled


This is Sunday morning in our household. After a day at the Olympics yesterday we are all exhausted today. The Pickle is 12 weeks old today and in a week, will be three months old.
