Today is day seventeen of Lion’s wait. If anything, he’s getting hornier. I don’t know if it has anything to do with the cage or not. He was doing pretty well before the cage arrived. My guess is that it has more to do with us snuggling and touching beforehand. Tying his balls, Icy Hot and even those lesser tiny clothespins may help, but I think Lion is just in a super horny phase. I’m certainly not complaining. I love it when my weenie is very hard.

It takes almost no time to get him to the edge. Every little move seems to make him gasp. I don’t think I’ve gotten him close enough to be in danger of giving him a ruined orgasm, but he’s certainly having fun. Sometimes he tells me ahead of time that I have a horny Lion. Sometimes he lets me find out for myself. Either way, I’m happy.

I’m not sure if I don’t push him far enough to get to the bucking stage or if he’s just not horny enough. He tenses his pelvis and that sort of thrusts up in the air, but it’s not like bucking. That’s more urgent. I wonder if he’s holding back from bucking. I don’t mind it. I might have to make a few adjustments to accommodate it. I don’t want to risk biting or scraping him with my teeth. From time to time, I do pretend to nibble on him but I don’t try to do damage. If we hurt my weenie, we might not be able to play with him. That’s no good.

At some point, Lion might lose his horniness. He’ll hit a plateau where it will be a little more difficult to get him excited. At least, that’s what’s happened in the past. I’m not sure if we’re at that point or not. If we’re past it already, maybe it won’t happen. Maybe it’s yet to come. Whether it happens or not, we’ll press on. I don’t think Lion’s done waiting just yet. If Lion wants to wait 45 days, so be it. (He hasn’t told me if he has a wait time in mind.) Maybe I’ll even make him wait 46 days just to be cantankerous.

Sometimes Lion is wimpy. Things that shouldn’t hurt him too much send him into orbit. It usually happens when I swat his balls. I understand they are sensitive, but even little love taps make him wince a lot. Last night, I decided to do the tiny clothespins. Then I decided I’d go for the lesser tiny clothespins. They’re slightly bigger and I don’t think they have quite the bite of the nasty little fuckers. At least I didn’t think they did.

After I unlocked him and he had all pieces of the cage off, I made sure he was hard and moaning a bit before I put the first clothespin on. Granted, I didn’t warn him, but he jumped and asked what the hell I was doing. The hell I was doing was pinching the edge of the head of my weenie. I don’t think I need to warn him or tell him what I’m doing. I usually do but I didn’t this time. I’m not sure we’ve ever discussed the need to warn him. If he was blindfolded he wouldn’t know. Anyway, the lesser tiny clothespins seem to be as bad as the tiny ones. Maybe he was just wimpy last night. If I try again in a few days he may be more able to handle them. It’s sort of a crap shoot.

Once I decided he wasn’t able to take the less than tiny clothespins anywhere, I tried pinching him with my fingertips. I thought maybe he could handle that better than a clothespin. He did a little better but he still was not having any of it. What could I do? I gave up.

I suppose I could institute a rule that if Lion can’t handle whatever I want to do to him, he forfeits any sex for the day/night. That would be a 4.0 move. The truth is, sometimes he’s just not in the mood for certain things. Who’s to say he wouldn’t have been fine with Icy Hot or figging? For that reason, I don’t think I should punish him for not wanting a certain thing. When he reads this he’ll probably say I should. It’s not like I had my heart set on the lesser tiny clothes pins. I just figured it was something different to do. If he had asked for a butt plug, I could have done a butt plug. I do take requests although, I admit, sometimes I’m not in the mood to do certain things.

Since there was no rule, I continued on to edge Lion orally. It was day fifteen and I left him panting and needing a few minutes to compose himself. The same thing will happen tonight, assuming both of us are ready, willing and able. For the record, I don’t have a date or length of time in mind. I’m not sure if it would be better or worse to announce that he has to make it to October 3. We had scheduled orgasms for a while. As I recall, they didn’t always work out. On one hand, he’d have something to look forward to. On the other hand, if he has no date in mind, every day might be orgasm day. I’d think the latter would be preferable.

Tonight’s the night. Is it? Maybe. Maybe not.

We started off okay. Our team looked a bit better than last year. They were still in the game after the first quarter. Lion was taking his swats with the rubber paddle. And then our team started playing like they had last year. Into the second quarter they were doing pretty bad with very few bright spots and Lion was snoozing. Just before halftime, there was a score. I decided to let Lion snooze. I could swat him when he woke up.

Initially, I thought we’d play at half time. We could have paused the game at any time, but half time seemed like a logical break in the action. However, it was getting late and Lion was already snoozing. He woke up briefly, asked if someone had scored, said he was too tired to do anything and went back to sleep. No big deal. We can play Spankball when our team plays next weekend. I don’t see the need to play it with every game we watch.

I’d be more concerned with his snoozing if it weren’t for the smoke in our area. We’re used to sleeping with the window open and sometimes we have the fan or air conditioner on. It hasn’t been very warm around here with the smoke cover but having air moving helps. Of course, it’s better when it’s fresh air. There hasn’t been much fresh air in over a week. That makes it difficult to sleep. I’m hoping we’ll do better tonight.

We now have a magnetic white board in the bedroom for keeping track of how many days Lion has been waiting. I figured he’d just write the number, but he bought refrigerator magnet numbers. I haven’t really looked to see what the highest number is that I can create. I did tease him that he had the right numbers to do 365. [Lion comments — There are enough numbers to to to 9,999] I really don’t know how long I’ll make him wait. I also don’t know how long he wants to wait. He must have a number in mind. Or maybe he just knows he wants to wait longer than fourteen days which has been the longest I normally make him wait if I want to push him. So far he’s up to fifteen. The longest he’s ever waited is twenty-eight days. He’s halfway there.

It’s difficult to tell if Lion is horny because he’s just horny or because of the cage. It could be a little of both. I enticed him more last night by tying his balls up tightly. He loves that. And then I edged him to the point that he couldn’t move at first when I was done with him. I like that. He’s already hinting today that he wants to be unlocked.

Tonight is the first game of the season for our NY Giants. We didn’t play our football spanking game yesterday. I was saving it for tonight. Added to the regular two swats for each point scored, there are swats added for a Giants fumble if they don’t recover and for each interception that’s our players’ fault. Of course, these are subjective things, but I don’t want to swat him if the other team makes a really good play that results in an interception. It’s not always our player’s fault that turnovers happen. On the other hand, when our quarterback throws to a spot where there are no players other than the opposing team, there’s no excuse for that.

Lion has absolutely no control over any of these things. He doesn’t play football. It’s just a game we came up with to make things interesting. Lion’s butt gets a workout and I get practice swatting. Win-win. It also celebrates the return of football which is very exciting. It’s really the only sport we watch and we miss it when it’s gone.

Depending on what time we start watching the game (we record it so we can watch when it’s convenient and we can zip through commercials), we’ll either stop after the first quarter or at halftime for fun time. He was easier to get to the edge the other night when we played Spankball the first night of football. Clearly that helps him. I think any attention helps him.

I bet Lion is hoping for a low scoring game tonight. With two swats per point plus a swat for some errors, his buns might be very red by halftime.
