Rayne — Fri, 20 Jul 2012 13:37:23 +0000

I used to be a lame…rhymes with duck. No, really. It’s true. I was ashamed of my interest in sex, and I thought the boys I was with were, too, so I did everything I could to act like a) I didn’t know what I was doing and b) I wasn’t enjoying it. Until one [...]

Helping Your Sick Partner Can Go A Long Way

Rayne — Fri, 15 Jun 2012 13:15:28 +0000

So, I'm sick. I went to bed with a migraine so sharp I almost asked M to take me to the hospital. If you know anything about me at all, you know that I'll avoid going to the doctor at all costs, so that, in and of itself, is proof I'm feeling pretty crappy. Add to that the facts that I'm ridiculously irritable, and all I've done all day since getting the things I had to do for work finished is lay on our giant beanbag with the kitten (I'm a workaholic), and you start to understand just how bad I feel.
