Trading Up
Trading Up Remember how I wrote about buying a new vibe a month or so ago? Yeah. I'm allergic to it (don't ask how I came to realize this). So it turns out that I need to buy yet ANOTHER toy to tide me over and this time, I went back to the pros at Eden Fantasys. I've purchased stuff from there before and been quite happy with it (until I wore it out from constant use, lol). In fact, the first fleshlight I bought for THAT GUY was purchased from their website as well. To date, I think it's still his favorite . Going back to the toy shop and purchasing one in person as I did last time might seem like the easier solution, but here's the thing: the advanced search functions on the website make it so much easier to narrow down my selection. Hypo-allergenic, waterproof, a safety rating of 8+ (which denotes how good it is at not retaining bacteria), a vibration rating of 4 (out of five- I'm not mixing paint ya know), multi-speed with easy to use controls, and I do pay close attention to the user ratings. This time I decided to invest in a Lelo- it has all the requirements I listed above and, while it does cost a bit more, the hundreds of detailed user ratings assure me that it'll be well worth the cost. As it turns out, I'm also getting a free vibrating cock ring as a gift with purchase. Not sure exactly who i'll give it to, though. . This probably sounds like a pitch to visit the website, but hey- when you find something that works, you get excited, right? So do you folks prefer to buy in person or over the web? Do you see a benefit in one method over the other? Anyone have a Lelo and NOT love it? And a few other sundry administrative items of note: Planning for the Midwest Blogger Bash 2013 is underway! The dates are Thursday, May 2nd- Sunday May 5th. Come for one day, or for all four days! The hotel has been booked- a Marriott in Downtown Chicago with indoor pool and hot tub, en suite kitchens and free breakfast, for $179-$189 per night depending on room type. More details to follow, but some ideas in the hopper are a private burlesque/stripper dance class for the ladies and our lingerie photo shoot as well. Lastly: I want to thank everyone once more for participating in our First Annual Perv Olympics! My guest-hosts did a fantastic job with coordinating their respective events- they have my eternal respect and gratitude. I also have to throw out a HUGE thanks to KellyMissBHaven for creating and distributing the bling to all the winners. Her efforts really made this event stand out and gave the winners the kudos they earned! The winner of the final event, [post 2979474], will be posted tonight. Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday! When it comes to sex, I need a STRONG connection. Otherwise, the page just keeps buffering and takes FOREVER to load... |

Well, that confirms it - my summer next year will be travelling all over hell's half-acre to attend blogger bashes. Lasttrainhome37 just added notice of a possible winter bash in Winnipeg. Now that one - I HAVE to attend. Looks like the new job and retirement are "off the table". I may be broke, and in debt, but how can you pass up over 7 weeks of holidays a year ? ? ? Looks like this gal will be living on soup all year. Got any good recipes for home-made? I know you do. Check out my profile or and become a "watcher" of my blog FMAOPLS,to learn more about me, and for intelligent, lively, smartassy and fun discussion, with a little irreverence thrown in. "Like" or comment on my photos, and I promise I'll add more. Thanks.

If I have to drive across 3 Provinces and 2 states, and sleep in my car, I will be there for May. Now, all I have to do is quit smoking and find a 2nd job. MMMM - 2013 - Chicago, DC, Canada Trois, and Seattle. What's a poor girl to do?

A story for you (from a previous blog post) ... Talking about side-splittingly scary, here's one from my "Sex Toys And Safira Do Not Mix -- Adult Supervision Required" annals ... I saw a toy in November of 2007 that completely entranced me, but I still didn't bite the bullet (*snickerdoodle*) and purchase it until several months later. When I noted the purple penis and back portion really up-close-and-personally I thought, "No fecking way are THOSE going into me!" So I promptly removed THAT part and concentrated on the two bullets underneath. Flash forward to a gloriously beautiful summer day when I am working from home, alone. The day is winding-down, and I am revving-up ... in a mood for some play time with no partner in sight. I fetch the bullets and begin my ministrations ... LOVELY! Until ... I hear one of my roommates coming home! OH GOD (and NOT in a good way)! No problem ... EXCEPT the toy will NOT shut-off, and it falls on a very sensitive area while I'm fidgeting with it! OH ... MY ... GAWD! Half hysterical that I will be caught in a climatic shout of joy as well as the other half being concerned that my sex toy has been possessed by gremlins, I fight through my fear and pleasure to pry open the top in order to get to the batteries, which I rip-out and throw to the floor ... one-by-one. The damn toy DID NOT shut-off until the third (and last) battery was completely out. At which point, I breathed a sigh of relief ... just as my roomie walks in and hollers up to me, "I am so fucking hot! How was your day?" I looked balefully at the toy on the floor as I gathered my wits and replied, "I'll be down in a minute. I need a cigarette." And that's all she wrote ... (And that's just ONE example of things that have gone horribly, gut-splittingly funny awry when I've tried using a toy that's not human. *giggle*) This is my blog - [blog _Safira]. There are many like it, but this one is mine. RECOMMENDED READING: A F F The Only Site For Me

I stopped buying toys in sex shops when another male customer told me I had a nice ass. And I won't shop online because I can't give my credit card number out and leave a paper trail for the people who are trying to prevent my Presidential run in 2016. Instead I wait patiently for someone to buy me something sordid for my birthday. It's coming up, you know...

i went with something leloesque the last time i bought and am happy with it, or she is happy with it i guess is proper. alright may it is.

I don't have one but I no a few women who have a Lelo and swear by it. If I wasn't such a cheapskate, I'd probably check it pout myself. I say got for it and let us know if it's as good as everyone says it is. As for the Chicago Bach, *cough* what are the chances of having it the week of May 20th instead? I *really* want to come and I'll probably be teaching that week. If you do it that week instead I'll not only be done with school but I'll be able to bring my shiny new diploma. (oh who am I kidding, I'll figure out some way to get there!)

I had to go check out the Lelo website and loved their line of toys. I have a new toy choice for Christmas. When the Viking returns we want to have a couples vibe and I love their version of the rabbit. I'll let you know how I like it when we get them. I prefer to buy online as the stores just never have the variety I want. Plus I don't have to go any where and they are delivered to my door. We will be in Italy or moving to Italy by May so no way we could make it. I'm sure I'll miss lots of Bashes in the next few years with us being overseas. Hopefully, we will find the alternative lifestyle community over there to enjoy. Kisses, LA

I gotta ask. How did you realize you were allergic?

I've not got the luxury of a vibrating cock-ring. Mine is just a ravishing blue magnetic joy ring that's what it says on the pack

Okay...I have never actually bought any sex toys...they have always been gifts from lovers and have given me a lot of pleasure!!!! ~~Anais Nin~~

The tentative dates are now engraved on my calendar and I have already put in for leave Does that give you a clue on if I'll be there or not? If you need help holler! I can do a heck of a lot with a computer in front of me "You've seen my descent, Now watch my rising!" - Rumi Some women are lost in the fire. Some women are forged from it - Michele K.
