Kiddo, Fly's son whom I've been parenting for almost 7 years, calls me by my first name, or sometimes introduces me as his "semi-stepmom." He reeeeeaaaally wants Fly and I to get married (I don't know how we've managed to raise such a little republican), and his carrot is that I can't be a real...

Happy Birthday to Me! Yesterday was my 35th birthday! Every year since we've been together, Fly has brought me breakfast berries in bed for my birthday. Yesterday, he served me raspberries and strawberries at 7 AM, and wished me a happy birthday as he went to work and I rolled back over to...

I like Fly to shower first, and if the encounter was in his bed, I want him to change the sheets, or we'll go to my bed. Fly doesn't care as much, but I usually do him the courtesy of washing up. Both of us often pounce on each other after having sex with others. I don't see it as...

I think my problem is that it feels like you're focused on the sexual part of girlfriend as a relationship label. I don't see how it's any different than wife - I think most people assume men fuck their wives, and vice versa (regardless if that's actually the case), but I don't know that you'd...

All is pretty quiet in Jenny-land. I've almost gotten all the plants I bought planted, and am so excited for the garden this year. This is the first time since I was a little girl that I have an actual (albeit small) garden, and not just growing things in containers. Being outside with the cats...

I think it's weird that you equate "girlfriend" with "sex." Do you think the 4-year-old will think of sex when she hears "girlfriend?" Would you feel differently if a monogamous person was introducing their long-term girlfriend to a child? When I became serious with Fly, and especially moved in...

Instead of a unity candle, my niece and her husband each poured a different color sand into a bottle at the same time, so it all co-mingled. Then I, as the officiant, popped the cork in. It was supposed to be a symbol that although they remain themselves, separate people (by using different...

Yes, this is why I'm having a hard time keeping up with my blog. Moonlight and I have been together for just shy of a year, Punk and I are going on two, and Fly and I have more than seven. There's not really a ton of NRE anymore, and we seem to have gotten most of the poly kinks worked out, so...

What a lovely place to be in. I'm happy for you! :)

Congratulations!! :)

Interest and availability, mostly. Sometimes it depends on who is hosting/organizing/attending the event - if it's people Fly knows and enjoys, I might take him even if the type of event is more up Moonlight's alley, and vice versa. Also, if it's the type of event where some quality time might...

I don't mean this is in a condescending way, but you are so young! I had my first real relationship (and lost my virginity) when I was 27. Talk about a late bloomer! :rolleyes: I was nerdy and goofy my whole life, and just one of the guys, and it wasn't until I grew up and became comfortable...

Hidey ho, beautiful people. Just to get the most important news out first - our chickens laid their first egg! We don't know who the culprit was, Tildy or Buffy, but it was small and brown and beautiful and delicious. :) The last weekend in April I spend 4 days with Moonlight near Lake Chelan...

Things are going okay these days. Fly and I are having a bit of a rough time, but that seems to cycle through our relationship every couple years, so I'm just holding on and hoping to get through it again. It makes me sad, though, because I feel a little lonely and lost, and it's bleeding into...

Happy anniversary to the both of you!!:)

I seem to be a bit in the minority here, as I absolutely want sex when I'm having a conflict with a partner. I think something about being touched, sharing that energy, centers and calms me, reminds me that I am loved and desired. In fact, years ago when Fly tried to break up with me (I just...

Aren't they? I never realized chickens could be so lovely! I'm such a nerd, I go out to the coop and sing to them, and they peep back at me. I'm so in love with them! :p It really is! I sort of don't know what to do with myself with all this bliss! :) Aw, thanks!

All you need is love...doo do do do doooooo Such a lovely, lovely weekend. Thursday night, I went over to Punk's house to hang out for a few hours. We spent a lot of time talking and cuddling, which was absolutely wonderful. He's been having a rough time with his own poly life, his partners...

Hooray Annabel!! Everything sounds amazing, and I am so so happy for you. I was reading your post and my officemate asked me why I was grinning like a fool. :D

Busy busy week for me! We finally went and got our chickens last night! I'm in love. :p Fly is kind of irritated with me, because we know that when they get older and stop laying, we'll probably eat them. With this in mind, we agreed to name them things like "Drumstick," "Noodle," or...
