1. Chris - In the middle of some pretty good foreplay, Chris asked me how many men I've been with. Hello! I can't help get the feeling that when one partner asks another this question men use addition and women opt for subtraction. I'm should be happy he limited the question to men.

To lighten the gravity of the question I said, "hold on, let me get my spread-sheet." That went over well. Finally, I said, "maybe 15 or 20." I shaved a few off. It sounds high, I know, but I am thirty. If you think about it, if you start having sex at eighteen and are now thirty, 20 partners is less than two a year.

Afterwards, the question angered me. I would never think to ask that question of him. And I didn't.

2. I caught Steve surfing for some porn. I say caught, but it's not like that bothers me. Ever notice how porn is a multi-billion dollar industry but you can't find too many people who own up to looking at it.

I sat down with him for awhile. He was looking at some amateur sites. So, what's the deal with these damn beaver shots. Yikes! There was shot after shot of nothing but pussy. Do most men like that kind of thing? I just don't get it; at all. I suppose I'm not the market for that type of thing but it just looks so uninspired. I'm not talking about a naked women with her pussy exposed, I'm talking about the camera being about 4 inches from nothing but her Hoo-Ha. And let me tell you, some of those Hoo-Ha's looked nasty.

3. Speaking of Steve, he recently bought me a piece of lingerie. As many of you may know, I adore lingerie. Currently, I'm very fond of the boy-shorts look. Merrywidows are also a favorite when I feel like going all out. If I'm up for the effort, I really like the classic garterbelt/stockings/bustier look. I think most of you know where my taste in lingerie trends.

I recently bought this.I fell in love with the pattern, style and color. I did not get the fan.

I had to have this one for the lovely color.

I don't have this particular item. It is a style I like but I prefer it in black.

So, knowing this,Steve buys me this.

Not the same exact thing, mind. I couldn't find a picture of the same exact thing. It's just hideous, isn't it? I couldn't even hide my revulsion when I opened the package. Steve, as always took it in stride. But lord, it's ugly. It will have to meet with an accident in a few days. Sorry, sweetie.

We all have momentary taste lapses. I remember buying a dress at Filene's one time, for a wedding. I tried it on and thought it looked great. Got home, tried it on....It looked like something my Grandmother would have worn. It was like I had a style stroke. Luckily, no permanent damage was done.

Off to the refrigerator for some Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk. It's just what the doctor ordered.

Sorry, I'm sounding bitchy tonight. This too, shall pass.
