Last week, I decided to catch up with some of our favorite bloggers; Keekah and the OPL Quad. I had a whole update written out, too, but I decided to finish it some other time. The last month would literally take hours to put in one whole post. I’ve been neglectful of our blog. =( It surely makes me sad. So, Keekah and the OPL Quad have been doing, um, what do you call them… memes, I suppose. Admittedly, I’m being a total copycat. But it seems like doing those things would remind me to write more in between specific days.
Theus and I WERE going to do a Curious as a Cat Monday, but ah, we took a look at this week’s question and we were stumped. I think Mondays are more mindless, in my opinion. The day is long, the rest of the week looks daunting. So, we decided to skip doing any special Monday blog thing. However, we’re going to do TMI Tuesday and Half-Nekkid Thursday from now on.
For TMI Tuesday, I am hoping all four of us will compose individual answers to the questions in one entry. For Half-Nekkid Thursday, I really enjoy the concept that it doesn’t have to be entirely sexual or vulgar/completely exposed. Plus, it’s preferrable that the faces don’t show. So, we want to do a whole theme of favorites. Each photo each Thursday would reveal a favorite part on our lover’s body. For example, I could reveal a favorite body part that I enjoy on Turtle. Next Thursday, it’s someone else’s turn to choose which lover and which favorite body part of theirs on that lover to reveal. A story would be included for each of those.
As a more recent update…
I would like to say that we had a fantastic weekend. The scheduling for our quad to work is supposed to consist of this: 1] One Group Night, which is a group gathering that includes the four of us and usually the kids. It could involve going out for pizza, going to the mall together, or just all-night movie and cuddling night. Usually it’s just a Movie Night for the four of us. The usual rule for this is no sex. 2] One Switch Night, which is when two primary dyads switch partners. Usually, Turtle stops by my place which is on her way from work to home and she stays the night with Bear. As soon as she gets to my place, I take her car on the rest of the way to their house and meet up with Theus there.
However, this weekend turned out a little differently. On Friday, Turtle took both me and Bear up to their house. They had plans to go into town and wanted to use her car. So they dropped me off with Theus, who has his truck anyway. Saturday, Bear and Turtle were comfortable enough with each other to want another switch night. That night, Theus and I didn’t have the kids, so we were able to go out.
Then Sunday evening, we had our group/movie night. We ended up staying that night, too, all four of us, at their house. I woke up this morning when Theus went to work, kissed him, and sent him off, then I went back to sleep. Then a few hours later, we got up with Turtle and she took us home on the way to work. Bear was able to get his things and our truck for work. It was comfortable and peaceful. Turtle and I agreed that we wanted more of this. Theus concurred.
However, we understood Bear’s need for routine and home. All of his things, including his computer, movies, work clothes, my truck, and our bed, are here at home. He also wants his private, alone time with me. This is acceptable and what he needs. Our goal is always to keep the whole group balanced and happy with everything. Go at the pace of the slowest.
As of now, I’m totally thrilled. It’s snowing hardcore. My house is still warm. I hear sounds of keyboard and mouse clattering as Bear plays his computer game. Our pug is snoring. I’m fuzzy inside from daydreams of the future and from the happiness of our recent weekend. I just finished chatting it up with Theus on msn. It’s time for our alone (just us two) movie night; the Bear and I.
