October 31, 2008 at 9:35 pm | In surrogacy | 6 Comments

enough of this horrid waiting. I’ll tell you.

I’m going to embark on another surrogacy for the same couple. A ’sibling project’, in surrogacy lingo.  I’ve been waiting for it to be all official and whatnot before posting about it.  Let me now bore you to tears with the deets.

First though, I’ll try to bring all the details together so you truly get the gist of it all.  So, the first part of this epic post will discuss my marriage. Imagine you’re a single gal, and you basically answer only to yourself. Neither good nor bad, just is what it is.  Now, you’ve married a man and you must now, apparently, answer to him. He’s also going to be your “guide” and (allegedly) with good intentions tell you what’s wrong with you.  He’ll tell you how you don’t clean the house the correct way, or fix dinner the right way. You don’t do this, you don’t do that, you do this wrong and that wrong. You don’t cook the way his MOTHER did, or clean the way his GRANDMOTHER did.

Basically, you’re flawed and he’s perfect and you only need to ask him to verify that. On top of that his mother and sister (who, lucky you, only live five minutes away), are nuts. It’s a small town with plenty of narrow minded hypocrites to make you stab yourself in the eyeball.

Eventually you begin to wish you could convince someone to drive over your legs many times. Instead, you attempt to get this man to stop laughing at the size of your ass. So, to recap, you go from single, happy go lucky gal, to married chick whose husband makes fun of her ass and forces you to live in a small backwoods town full of crazy people. Think ‘Deliverance’.  Yeah, you start to lose it.

So major husband/wife unpleasantness began to unfold. At some point there’s quite a bit of ugliness. I won’t keep you in suspense any longer, it works out fine. See, at some point you have to realize husband has totally unrealistic and borderline insane expectations. And when he gets out of hand you tell him to “go fuck himself”. You remember you’re fine, you’re not crazy, and your house is no messier than anybody elses.

Ok, so, during uglier period of this husband/wife event (the entire ordeal did cover several years), we also were in the midst of surrogacy.  Do not misunderstand, this is very important. At no time did the surrogacy spark any issues. I’m sure the hormones weren’t likely helping. But the surrogacy merely coincided with the marital rifting.

Now, let’s move forward approximately eleven months after I delivered my surro baby. Let’s call her Belle. (And for simplicity sake , let’s call the parents of Belle, Raz and Yoss.) Raz emailed me to tell me they wanted to do another surrogacy with me. I actually had an idea what Man would say, so I just forwarded Raz’s email to him.. hoping her heartfelt words would move him. No. He’s not heartless, but let’s remember, at the time of the surrogacy we were having icky marriage stuffs. So I’m assuming he just naturally associated that with  future surrogacy and had a very bad feeling.

No was no and I couldn’t say anything to change it. We had a fight about it, sort of but no was no. It’s not like hiding that new pair of shoes under the bed.  Eventually he’d notice if I’d gone on and done the surrogacy without his consent. Like, I’m sure being pregnant would have likely tipped him off.

The next four or so months I would make a comment about it and he’d just ignore it or groan or just give me “that” look. You know the one that says “bring it up again and I’ll beat you with a baseball bat”. That’s a typical husband look, right? Anyway, I even tried to convince myself I really didn’t want to do another surrogacy. I tried to convince myself he was right. I tried. I failed.

About two weeks ago, I just couldn’t take it anymore and decided to bring the subject up to him again. I picked a day that he was off from work, but somehow managed to never find just the right moment. Until around 10 o’clock that evening when I’d worked myself up so much I had an anxiety attack. I fucking swear to god, I thought I was having a heart attack. Literally. I started breathing really hard, my chest was hurting, I kept saying to myself “holy shit my left arm hurts TOO, I’m going to DIE!”  I was getting dizzy, sweaty. It was hilarious… LATER.  Anyway I look at him and said something like “omg, I just had an anxiety attack because I’ve been wanting to talk to you about the surrogacy”.

“No.”

Ok, so fuck you. I ignored him for a week. I mean, I didn’t just nearly die then drop it. We “discussed” it. “No.”  I explained that this surrogacy would not play out the same as the last because none of the same circumstances are present. I explained how important this was to me. I made some half-assed joke about him being able to get the Harley Davidson he’s been wanting. “No.”

Then I brought it up again the other day. I don’t honestly know what I said. Maybe I flashed him some tit. I don’t remember.  He did say he’d been thinking about it that week. Then he just said, “Yes”.

“Yes.”

I’m actually looking forward to daily needles in my butt. I’m looking forward to losing my mind waiting for a positive pregnancy test.  There’s much to look forward to. More for them, of course, but at least I get to play a part.

Why do I do this? I don’t do it for the money. It’s far less than you’d think. I don’t do it for someone to gush over me. That makes me uncomfortable actually. Raz and Yoss don’t care. They can’t contain themselves and frankly, I enjoy it that they don’t care.

I do it because it matters. I matter to them, and I’m a part of something very wonderful. I can donate money to a charity until I’m blue. I can crochet blankets for crack babies at the hospital. To ME, that means nothing. Anyone can do that. Not everyone can, nor should they, do this. I can do this. I do this and to me, it means something.

damn chin strap….

October 29, 2008 at 11:11 am | In Musings again | Leave a Comment

I have found it is slightly useful to post about these things as they do serve as a sort of paper trail for issues. (thank you Melanie for the idea).  So in a previous post about the chin strap I ordered and never received: chin strap story , I mentioned I still hadn’t recieved credit for the shipping cost. I mentioned that right? *checks* Yeah, ok. So, Eric said I’d get the credit in 1 to 3 business days. It’s been 6 business days, and NO CREDIT. ARGH.

Now, before I go calling them up and getting no where because I’m being a bitch, I took a deep breath, regrouped and checked this nifty article for advice : Hardballs:How to Mind Control Customer Service Reps .  I only had to make it to step seven before Ginger (the supervisor I got using step four!), said “I just issued the credit right now as we were on the phone”.  Well shit Ginger, I was all set to escalate this bitch to step NINE!

Pa POW.

Meh. Watch it not be in my account by the end of the week. I’m not holding my breath. LOL

it’s not what you think….

October 29, 2008 at 10:50 am | In Internet horrors, Musings again | 1 Comment

honest to God I’m not a pervert. Admittedly, I do Google some questionable topics. (Scat anyone… *takes a moment to bleach eyeballs before proceeding*).  Mostly though, a lot of my internet findings come simply from link hopping. You know, you find a link in one article, that leads to another article. Somewhere on that site you find a link to another site. Etc, etc. More often than not, by the end of the link hopping, you’re far far away from the original topic. That’s how I find things. Somehow I found a blog dedicated to the worst of the worst in Men Seeking ads. Actually I’ve found a few such blogs. These blogs made me curious. Not for a man, but what other nonsense is out there. Well let me tell you, there is MUCH NONSENSE.

Here’s a recent excerpt from an ad on Craigslist:

The bedroom, dimly lit by a few flickering candles. I can feel the heat radiating from your body as you stand in front of me. I grab your hips and pull you to me. We start kissing, lasting several minutes, while our pulse and breathing became heavier. Our lips never part as my hands strip you down in a matter of seconds, as your wandering hands remove my clothes. I lay you down on the bed, still kissing you passionately.

I trace my tongue down your neck, licking and sucking gently as you wrap your arms around my back. I bring my mouth down to your nipples, flicking and teasing them to attention, then moderately sucking on them as you moan in pleasure. My mouth’s next stop is your stomach, kissing and licking its way down to your cleanly shaved mound, where I inhale the sweet smell of your pussy.

I put my hands behind your knees, lift your legs up towards your arms, spreading you wide as it also raises your pussy closer to my mouth. I lightly blow on your wetness, you shudder. I slowly and lightly trace my tongue all the way around your outer lips and the very insides of your legs, teasing you as you quiver in pleasure. After the teasing becomes too much, my tongue finds your hood, and begins gently caressing it up and down, to moans of pleasure escaping your mouth. Your hands are now gripping the sheets and you gasp as my tongue part your lips and slide down to the entrance, then back up to your clit. You are so wet and taste so good.

After several intense orgasms, my tongue’s sole attention is now on your clit as my right middle and ring finger slide into you easily and immediately found your g-spot. As I work them both, you cum and cum again and again and again, your juices coating my face and hand, puddling below your ass. The pleasure overwhelms you, causing your whole body to tense and shake. It becomes too much, you beg me to stop, so I make you cum a few more times just for good measure.

As I finally ease my pleasure grip on your body, my huge cock craves for attention. I sit up, licking your juices off my fingers. You pull my head down to yours and start wildly kissing me again, even though I am still covered in your cum. You reach down between us, finding my hard member. You are still so wet you pull me all the way into you, and my cock bottoms out against your cervix. That was enough for you to cum yet again. I start slow, easing myself in and out of you as we keep kissing. You cum again and again, squeezing me harder and harder. You wrap your arms around me, your lips never leaving mine, and begin moving your hips with mine, still having orgasm after orgasm.

I would go faster, sending you into a frenzy of orgasms, then slow back down to long, slow, powerful orgasms, sometimes driving all the way into you and pausing, making my cock throb against your cervix which would make you cum again, squeezing my cock. This all becomes too much for me to bear, we are going slow and passionately kissing yet again, when you whisper into my ear telling me to cum for you, deep inside you, and you tighten your muscles and clamp down on me. I tell you to cum with me, and you do as I drove all the way into you, into your cervix, pulse, throb, and flood you with my hot cum. We both SCREAM in pleasure for what seems like an eternity. My tensed body finally gives out, I wrap my arms around your body and lay down on top of you, my head lying on your neck.

And this is just the first time, there’s several more hours of pleasure after this! Please understand I am not looking just for sex, I want a LTR with a woman that loves sex just as much as I do. Just doesn’t seem to be very many women out there like that. And the uptight, unimaginitive women looking in the LTR section keep flagging my post.

A little about me: SWM, incredibly smart, charming, highly independent, 5′9″ 165lb average\athletic body, shaved black hair and brownish-green eyes. I have a good job, my own place, and live alone. I am a real person and not some BS website, so if I sound even remotely interesting please send me a message.

You: SWF, petite to average, sorry, no BBW’s please. Must be attractive, intelligent, and able to hold a conversation. Lets see if the sparks fly. Your pic will get mine, SO SEND A PIC! If you don’t I probably won’t respond.

Allegedly, a guy wrote this. I know this to be true for a number of reasons. First, the ad is titled “m4w”. Now, I’m not quite up on the lingo, but I’m pretty sure that’s related to the gender. Secondly, who, other than a man, would write about a woman having, (I estimated here, having no idea precisely how many a “frenzy of orgasms” is), roughly 22 orgasms.  Who? you ask… a man that’s never BEEN with a woman, that’s who.

My clitoris laughed out loud when I read this ad.  Look, I enjoy an orgasm as much as anybody. However, I’m quite positive I’d be either dead, severely dehydrated, or at the very least, suffering from temporary paralysis after an evening of such rigorous activity.  He never mentioned water breaks, bathroom breaks, or breaks for stretching.  Is a paramedic standing by for this?  Maybe she’s already hooked up to IV fluids.

I think what we’re not seeing is the truth of this ad. This isn’t an ad for a long lasting relationship complete with hours of hollywood sex scenes. This is REALLY an ad for a man with a fetish for ancient chinese torture.  Unless he’s got a gallon of Astroglide, there’s NO WAY that womans hoo hah is staying that wet for that much activity. Even prostitutes take a breather. Maybe he rigged the garden hose up and angled it towards her va-jay-jay.

And the part about “my cock bottoms out against your cervix“…  Dude, wtf? Is that the hot new sex slang nowadays? I really don’t think you know a whole lot about that cervix.  I don’t want anything bottoming out in or around me. I can’t help but think if diarrhea at that term.

The blurb about your “huge cock“, a nice touch.  Anybody that writes this kind of fairy tale is probably not packing anything huge. A gut maybe, but not a cock. I’m envisioning World of Warcraft on pause while he stops long enough to type up this gem.

So his one personality types this story about clitoris and cervix abuse, then the other personality takes over mid ad and types “I am not just looking for sex, …”.  I’m sad for this man, and his mother who’s still washing his laundry.

chin strap please….

First let me get the gloat out of the way. My son (who just turned 8 this month) played football for the first time this season.  Our county hosts a little leage for kids up until they go to high school. He could have played last year but I was confused on the age requirement and frankly didn’t want him to. Anywho, this year was a go.

What I didn’t realize was just how expensive this would be. I paid $150 just to register him. JUST TO REGISTER. Then there was a deposit for concession stand duty. In the event I didn’t fulfill my duty, they cashed my check. That was $20. I got that back. Then the $50 fund raiser deposit. Don’t sell your fundraiser tickets? They cash your check.  Then the equipment deposit. I don’t remember how much that was.  Then I paid something else I don’t remember. Then they wanted everyone to contribute a case of bottled water. I somehow never remembered to do that.  Bought two pair of socks. Bought a practice jersey and girdle. They through the belt in for free. Nice.

Those things did not cover the mouth guard. Although, he may have been given a freebie, but of course he didn’t like it. So had to buy a new one. And a new chin strap. And another new girdle. And of course the cleats. And another practice jersey. And then another mouth guard. Then he wanted another chin strap.

I agreed to these things because the first chin strap was honestly useless. The first mouthguard was too big. The second mouthguard was too small. The second chin strap was pinching him during excercises. They’re relatively minor purchases so, we agreed.

Well all was just fine until I tried to purchase the replacement chin strap. I ordered from an online vendor that was in my state so I’m thinking, “great, fast ship”. No. I ordered a YOUTH chin strap. I received an ADULT chin strap and a different brand. Not once, mind you, but TWICE. Yes, I returned it and they shipped out “the correct one” and received the exact same thing again. By this time my son is very disappointed. So I contacted them, again, for a return label. Period. Do not send me anymore chin straps.

I was pissed but figured I’d just order somewhere else. Roughly two weeks later I check my bank account and they’d only credited me for the price of the item, not the shipping charge of $6.95. Now, if they had shipped me the correct item and I decided to return it for some reason, then fine, I owe shipping. But I never received my order. So basically I paid them to send me the wrong thing.

Forgive me if I don’t get a tingle out of that.  So I called again today for the second time about it and “Eric” was going to submit the form again. Thanks Eric, that’d be great. The part that gets me, when I called about the second incorrect item, I never got so much as a “sorry”. Nothing. *shrugs*

They’ve lost a customer, and it’s a shame too, my son is damn good at football. He just turned 8 and was one of the two quarterbacks. Only TWO quarterbacks, and he was one. Yeah, that’s right. He kicks some baseball ass too. :) )

missed it…

I’m totally letting ‘New Friend’ opportunities slip by. Like, just now, a telemarketer called. I should have asked her who her favorite author is. Or does she enjoy computer magazines?  Dude I need to get out of the box. Metaphorically. I don’t literally lay in a box, like this guy  Bill in the Box

blech….

I have a cold. Well, if you ask Man, I have a cold. I’m fine. If you ask ME, I have malaria and likely won’t make it through the week.  Nonetheless, my nose is stuffy, my head feels like it is filled with cotton and I’m now a mouth breather. Blech.

So let’s make with the blogging.  Today, being sick and using that as an excuse to do nothing, I read a blog today. Let me digress here a minute. When I was a mere buddling of a woman, 13 years young, I had a best friend IN HIGH SCHOOL. How cool was I. Well, obviously I was just born cool, but being a kid with a best friend in high school… dude… seriously my shit was golden.  Yeah. That’s right.

Anywho, she schooled me in the finer points of adolescence.  Like smoking and boys. lol We partook in many shenanigans. Things I still recall fondly. Midnight walks through my neighborhood… back when you could do that at 13 minus the kidnapping and subsequent rape and left for dead scenario.  She was cool and I was all the more cooler for associating with her and being a part of her life.  What she found so entertaining in me I’ll never know, maybe at 13 I was a good listener. Maybe I offered logical advice. Traits I still have today.

Whatever the case, I’ll always remember her and those years. In fact, my thirteenth birthday was spent with her spending the night and us sneaking up to my neighbors house. At the time “John” was currently hosting his cousin (I think), Stephan. Now, maybe I was a bit naive at 13, and they played on that or this is true, but Stephan insisted that his name was pronounced “Steph-ahn”. Like, how gay is that. I didn’t believe him. I still think he was yanking my chain.  Whatever, I still remember that. I remember more but suffice it to say, I like to think of that night as my bonafide induction into teenageville.  Let the mood swings and hilarity ensue.

So, as it happens with a lot of high school relationships, we lost touch. We did catch up briefly a few years back.  However, life resumed and roads went in different directions.  Vastly different than the friend that “dumped” me not long after high school. I mean jesus, it’s one thing to lose touch, it’s another to just… nevermind, I’m digressing while digressing. That could potentially cause an embolism.

Anywho, one of us found the other via Myspace.  Today, I found her blog. So I read it. Not like I was distracted by cleaning the house or laundry or anything. Uh, hello, SICK DAY. The fact I have no job is irrelevant.  Not like Man pays me for vacation or personal leave.  I might have had a point that I was leading up to here, but if so, it’s escaped me now.  At any rate, It’s a good blog. I enjoy reading blogs and getting a peeping toms’ view into someones life.  It’s even more fun to read the blog of a long lost friend. Except for the exclusion of a few pertinent details, I’m all caught up now. And she didn’t even have to lose a days work, or even pay for the long distance call. Blogs rock.

Sadly, this was the highlight of my day. Not that her blog sucks, just that the discovery of a friends blog was the most riveting thing I did today.
