My company recognizes Good Friday as a holiday, so I was off. It didn't really feel like a day off because I had scheduled an electrician to come install a bathroom fan and an outside electrical outlet, so I was kind of stuck around the house in the morning waiting for him to call and confirm what time he'd be coming. I was also waiting for a glass guy to come out and replace my windshield, which developed a huge crack along the bottom after getting hit by gravel from a truck. (Luckily my insurance paid for that, and I have a 0 deductible, so that was nice.)
The electrician pissed me off because when I scheduled the job, he'd assured me that he would be able to get the work done on that day. When I talked to him Friday morning, and he told me he was running behind because he hadn't been able to work the past two days, he still talked about the job as something that he'd be able to come in and finish, though it would be later that afternoon. After waiting all day, a different guy finally showed up around 4:00, but he was just there to look at what I wanted and give me an estimate. He said they'd contact me to schedule the job at a later time! I wasted a whole day waiting for them and as far as I was concerned, I was no closer to getting the job done than I'd been before.
I've called another electrician to come give me an estimate, and if he can get me scheduled for sometime this week I'm going to have him do it instead of the other guy. If the first electrician had just told me Friday morning that he was too behind and would have to get at the job sometime next week, I would have been okay with that. But to string me along thinking everything would be done that day just pissed me off!
The wife wasn't off on Friday, so I had the morning to myself. And as of Friday morning, I'm no longer "master of my domain."
I'd done well with the no LAP/JO for two weeks, and probably could have gone without it on Friday. But being home alone, horny and with plenty of time on my hands, it was just too tempting. And also thinking through how long it would likely be before I was home alone again in the morning (which is really my favorite time for LAP/JO) with time on my hands, I said "fuck it" and went to town.
It. Was. WONDERFUL!
The wife and I had only had sex once during my two week hiatus, but I hadn't felt particularly deprived or anything. But once I started fondling my cock and balls, and pulled up my favorite subreddit (Hotwives), I realized just how much I'd been missing it. I tried to draw it out and really make a morning of it, but after 15 minutes I came hard and was spent!
I don't know where this puts me going forward, but I think I'll try limiting my use of porn to just those times when I'm already horny and have time to enjoy a good self-loving session or when the wife and I want to watch it together to enhance our lovemaking. I will still enjoy reading the adventures, both real and imagined, that my favorite bloggers write about, and if there are pictures attached that's fine. In my mind that different than me actively going to tumblr or reddit and looking specifically for images to get me off; that's what I intend to limit. As with many things, it seems to be more enjoyable for me in moderation instead of just when it's a daily, steady diet of it.
The wife surprised me with morning sex on Saturday, which is always nice. We romped about for a good while, really enjoying being alone in the house and not having any schedule to keep. Afterwards we went to the gym and had an early workout (another early workout), then got some breakfast before going shopping. Later we went by the niece's new apartment to have lunch with her and her brother (the nephew who recently got out of jail) and had a nice time with them. I hope he can manage to keep on the right track this time, and maybe the niece will be able to help. She did tell me she'd kick his ass out if he started going back to his old ways, and I fully support her on that.
The wife and I enjoyed a few drinks Saturday night after dinner (leftover spaghetti from the day before, plus salad), and it was just a quiet night at home. No sex, as we were both too tired and ready for bed by 10:30 or so.
After lunch with the parents today I plan to get out and mow the lawn and do some other yard work. If anything more exciting than that happens I'll update this post later to indicate that, but don't hold your breath, lol.
Can you send me the link to that Subreddit? I'm totally new to the whole Reddit thing after listening to a great interview with Alexis O'Hanion, one of the creators of Reddit.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you about service people stringing you along. Jerks! Why not just be honest and say you are backed up. I wouldn't use that guy again.
