Working Late

Lion has been trying to get an agent. He’s been working on query letters and revising his book. He didn’t come out of his office until after 5 yesterday. I was already in the bedroom. I know it’s dangerous to assume, but I assumed it was the day-after-orgasm lack of horniness. Of course, it could have been I’m-in-book-mode lack of horniness. Either way, the early bird special was off the table. We went about our normal evening routine of trying to figure out what to have for dinner, eating and watching TV.

I don’t know what time it was, but I moved over to snuggle. We’d been holding hands on and off. Nothing sexual was going to happen. It was just nice to be close. It’s been cooler here and I don’t mind being under the blankets with him. He’s usually a furnace and it’s too hot to snuggle like that in the summer. He’s usually cold and I’m hot. At this point in the year, we can agree on being under the blankets.

The other day, I set up the box o’fun. I took out anything relating to anal activity since we haven’t done it in a while. I didn’t want to just start pegging him when he wasn’t prepped. There were a few for blindfolding and another choice. I took those out because they always seemed strange to me. I also had a few cards that said, “Lioness choice” or “free choice”. If I knew what to do to begin with, I wouldn’t need the card. And Lion hates when I ask him to choose the activity. I thought it would be nice for him to say, “We haven’t done X in a while.” Nope. It’s all on me.

The problem is that I removed so many cards, there doesn’t seem to be much left. I have the usual clothespins, ball bondage and a few others. What else can I do to him? If I had a larger repertoire, I might not need the box at all. I could just cycle through A, B, C, D, E, F, and then mix them up in a different direction next time around. Sure, I may have tiny clothespins, regular clothespins, and plastic clothespins, but they’re all clothespins. Boring. I have at least four versions of menthol rub, but that’s all the same too. I guess I need to visit Extreme Restraints to get some ideas. It’s not that I need to buy a new toy. We have lots of toys. I just need to figure out what to do with them.
