Afternoon Delights
Saturday, March 29, 2008 at 12:03PM | Mr Lady
So, I've been running around my house reading the ingredients on a few things. The Febreeze plug-in air freshener thing? .... Lysol spray?..... The air filter in the furnace?....
Not one of them lists pheromones in the ingredients. Funny, that, because I live in a house with the four horniest people I have ever met.
The middle kid locks the door to the bathroom when he showers, and 30 minutes after he's gone in, when I am praying for having enough hot water left to wash a few dishes, I knock. I tell him to get out already. HE HASN'T EVEN STARTED WASHING HIMSELF. You know and I know and god knows what he was doing.
The toddler can get her legs into this position on the couch, when the mood strikes her, that I have tried in the interests of spicing things up for the mister, only to be laughed at loudly by several of my more important joints, just because she's discovered that her belly ain't the only button she's got.
The oldest one. I can't ever talk about this again. Deals have been struck and I get to remain almost totally blissfully unaware.
I will spare you the content of the nightstand on my husband's side of the bed. I will also spare you the contents of his desk drawer. Let's just say that the children have been threatened under pain of death to never open either. And he has been threatened the same, at least in my presence.
Is there a point here? No. But if I have to suffer through living in a Las Vegas Sex Club, I am totally dragging you all down with me.

Wait? What? NINE year olds do that? I was thinking I had until at least 12 or so before I had to worry about that. Man, ignorance IS bliss.
Oh dear. I don't want my kids to get older.

I think we totally need a photo essay on the contents of the drawers.

all i can say is stock up on tube socks.
hahaha.
i laugh because i choose to not be annoyed with how many times a day I have to say, "Isobel, that doesn't go in there."
Notice you didn't leave any commentary on how you are too busy to give yourself a little sumpin sumpin.

Gulp, NINE?! I'm so ill-prepared.
Nightstands are a scary place indeed.

Yeah, I have no idea how to deal with my sons dealing with their parts... and they do deal with their parts a lot. What am I supposed to do?

Yeah, we do a lot of 'You can do that in private' around here, as Cass likes to wander around downstairs in the morning, both hands comfortably down the front of his Curious George (Oh, the irony!) pyjamas

The boy takes 30 minutes to do it? Sounds like he's doing it all wrong. When flying solo, it's not about the trip but the destination. Why, when the mood strikes, I can be done in a mere... uh, moving right along.
In our house, Ewan (2 yrs) likes to run around naked, holding his "part" and yelling "I touch my coo-coo! I touch my coo-coo!"
Fiona is well known to be able to rock the entire minivan making use of the middle strap of her safety seat. I once went around to her side to get her out at a store and she looked up and said "I'm masturbating. I can't help myself."
Who hasn't felt that way, really?

Trust me when they get to 16 or so the pheromones can be scraped from the walls and ceiling. It is hard for me to imagine 2 of 3 in the shower for more than 60 seconds even though you told me that he is changing physically before your eyes.
And on another note, I would like to thank your readers from the bottom of my heart for signing the Vietnam petition. And I mean the very most bottom of my heart and bigtime.
S.
I SO could not have had a boy.
I couldn't live thinking that he was doing THAT in THERE.
*shudders*

I'm beginning to feel like I'm raising perves here because my girls started way earlier than nine!

My kids don't like sex - so they say. They're not even into romance. My 17 year old says she's not ready to date.
My dogs, however, both male, are total perverts. They're constantly taking a lick of each other's, well, you know. When I come home, they'll take turns jumping up to greet me. Half the time while one's jumping up, the other takes the opportunity to lick the other's genitals. I'm constantly telling them to stop that. Oy!

well, I guess it wouldn't surprise you if I told you that Noah found something long and vibrating in his father's bedside drawer...and then brought it out when his grandparents were at the dinner table! Can anyone say, all eyes to that speck of dust on the floor while Mummy grabs the offending embarrassment and stows it away, higher, MUCH higher????????????

Boys behind closed doors for questionable amounts of time.... check!

You owe me a new laptop because I think I just ruined mine spitting wine out of my nose...
I also live with 3 (4 if you count me, but I don't) very horny humans, 2 extremely primal dogs, and a cat that masterbates entirely too freely. My son's only 6...do NOT want to think about what's going to happen when he's any older. *shudder*
I'm off to research those "hidden compartment" nightstands. I think I could use one or two of those...
