Some days, you’re so damned busy you feel like you haven’t even had a chance to take a deep breath, much less eat something or actually taste your coffee. I had a day like that today. From the second I got out of bed until nearly dinner time I was non stop busy.
And the thing is, working at a computer busy is totally different than a physically demanding job that is busy. The people around you don’t really realize you’re busy and they think it’s not as hard as being physically busy and…
It’s all in the brain, man. Your brain is busy and it’s stressful and feels a lot more disorganized and crazy than physical work ever did to me.
So, anyhow. I was insane busy today and when I finally stopped and looked at the clock and realized it was almost five and I hadn’t eaten and I was feeling like shit, I hit the pause button.
The imaginary pause button, but still. I turned in my chair, looked at Taylor and was like… Dude. Wanna go get something to eat? He must have been hungry, too, cuz he got up immediately and out the door we went. Had ourselves a nice fish fry. Ate at a table instead of my desk. We had… gasp!… conversation while we ate.
And it made me realize we just do not do that often enough. Pause and really take some time that involves nothing else but us, good food, talk and laughter. One of us has always got our noses buried in something or other.
I think the world in general is too like that these days. I mean, I’ve always been bad. If I wasn’t actively doing something I was reading. Buried in a book, oblivious to the world. I still read a lot but I also find myself puttering around on twitter or facebook or fetlife or playing bejeweled or some other computer game. I rarely even watch movies anymore cuz they’re not “active” enough, they require sitting still and focusing for a long period of time. And it seems like, since my job means I bop all over the computer all day, between SexIs and EF and EC and mail and facebook and twitter and skype and… gah!, I’m never still! In my brain, I mean. So after work, it’s really hard to…
Pause.
Which means it’s been an eternity since I truly settled down and felt relaxed, especially since I’ve had no sex to wear me out and haven’t been able to have a bath. Those are my normal outlets and they’ve been absent these past three weeks since the biopsy/LEEP.
So I guess what I’m babbling about it the fact that, though it was short lived, the dinner break tonight was fabulous.
But now I’m craving needle play.
Wait. What?
How did we go from dinner to needles? Heh. I read a great article about it today and my mind has been on the “high” it induces and how relaxing that high is and all this talk about pausing and relaxing makes me desperately want some more of that feeling I had at dinner only multiplied by 72 gazillion…
See? I make sense.

Awhile back I decided I was going to do a little comparison. I wanted to determine exactly which felt better to me, Vixen Vixskin or Tantus 02 silicones.
