Update to Sex Everyday: FAIL

Yup, that'd be me.  The one who says her husband isn't home but 2-3 days per week.  He got home Friday night just before midnight and left at 4:30 this morning, so really home just Saturday and Sunday.  We joked about it yesterday.....but deep down I think MH knew I'd never keep this up.  However, I thought I'd at least make it through a weekend!  LOL!

On the flip side, I made it through an AMAZING book if anyone needs any recommendations for a good read!  I read until about 11:30 last night and Todd slept.  Stick out tongue

Re: Update to Sex Everyday: FAIL

  • Good try Amy!  What book did you read?
  • I read The Help by Kathryn Stockett.  It was very good - I had close to 200 pages to go when I crawled into bed last night and could NOT put it down until I finished.

    I'm reading this right now!! I really like it, too (but have been too exhausted at night to get very far with it).

  • Oh well.  It was a nice thought.  And there's nothing stopping you from getting back on that horse next weekend!  (Er...no pun intended).

    Thanks for the book rec too.

  • You're still better than the rest of us... at least you entertained the idea.

    This is terrible to admit, but I will. My husband is also out of town frequently. I imagine this awesome welcome home sex. I get all cute and ready and look forward to my sexy man coming home. Okay, here's the terrible part... sometimes, I just feel let down. He comes in scruffy and frumpy. I feel bad. I should love him no matter what... and, I do... but, somehow love and desire aren't equal. The desire part is much higher if he has showered and shaved... and doesn't eat onion rings at the airport.

    LMAO - I totally understand!!!!!  This is almost every week when Todd gets home!

  • LMAO - serious candidate for the funniest post title ever.  :)

    You tell Todd though that you'd better get a decent amount before you head off to Rome - otherwise those Italian men might just be too tempting...

    Ha....love it!  Yeah, MH doesn't understand why I don't want to make out with him immediately after he gets home after he's worked 13 hours and ate a polish sausage and fries for dinner.......

    *hangs head* This happens to us too, but um, the other way around. Poor DH will try to be all romantic and sexy and whatnot, and there I am with legs that haven't been shaved for a week and a half, burping like a mofo (wtf is it with pregnancy and gas?), and just wanting to sleep. You've got to give it to him for trying!

    Yep.  It's also the other way around for us.  MH will get all showered and shaved and minty and will wear something he knows I love, but there I am...hairy legs and all wearing jammies from last night that have pizza sauce splotched on them.  (Which is why I try harder when we're on vacay).
