In our ten year relationship, one thing Dan and I have encountered time and again is our tendency to lapse into a state of testiness and grumpiness if we don’t have sex often enough. And by often enough, I don’t mean something unrealistic like twice a day, or even every day or every other day. But generally we do our best to make time for each other 2-4 times per week 1. This month was just nuts, between his hunting trip at the end of November, decorating for Christmas, doing last minute shopping, working, my period and other girly parts issues, and then Christmas itself. By last night we were both kind of snappish, and as we lay here in bed talking and getting ready to fall asleep, I mentally threw myself into Let’s Have Sex mode. It worked out well, seeing as how at the time Dan was rubbing my shoulders, arms, sides, legs… not exactly sexual but definitely with an underlying sexual desire/intent.
And today? I feel SO much better. Dan went to work this morning, and I slept like the dead (a common occurrence since switching to a Tempur-Pedic Cloud pillow 2), so I didn’t get the opportunity to gauge his mood, but I’m sure he’s in a good one. 
In other news, today is my baby brother’s 13th birthday. I gave him a penguin-themed board game and a copy of Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edition. I need to get un-lazy and go out to the grocery store if I have any intention of making triple chocolate chip pancakes for dinner. I’m dressed, my hair is done and my makeup is on, but I just don’t feel like going anywhere at the moment. Eh. I’ll do some work and watch some TV and then head out this afternoon.
P.S. I’m digging the footnotes plugin, FD Footnotes, that I just installed. Hopefully this’ll cut down on my abuse of parentheses.
Haha, I can totally relate.
I love that footnotes plugin. I am thinking about installing it, too.
I am in love with your new layout. I think it’s my favourite ever.
I love the footnotes and the new layout!
