Free Book Friday (with a side of Funny)
A FRIDAY FUNNY
He grasped me, firmly but gently just above my elbow, and guided me into a room. His room. Then he quietly shut the door and we were alone.
He approached me soundlessly from behind and spoke in a low, reassuring voice close to my ear. “Just relax.”
Without warning, he reached down, and I felt his strong, calloused hands start at my ankles, gently probing, moving upward along my calves, slowly but steadily. My breath caught in my throat. I knew I should be afraid, but somehow I didn’t care. His touch was so experienced, so sure.
When his hands moved up onto my thighs, I gave a slight shudder, and partly closed my eyes. My pulse was pounding.
I felt his knowing fingers caress my abdomen, my ribcage. And then, as he cupped my firm, full breasts in his hands, I inhaled sharply.
Probing, searching, knowing what he wanted, he brought his hands to my shoulders, slid them down my tingling spine and into my panties.
Although I knew nothing about this man, I felt oddly trusting and expectant.
This is a man, I thought. A man used to taking charge.
A man not used to taking No for an answer.
A man who would tell me what he wanted.
A man who would look into my soul and say…
“Okay, ma’am, you can board your flight now.”

I think it would be funny to see a kitty inside a large hamster ball, running along side the hamsters…lol
FBF, I’d love to win the book.

Hey, Mary—welcome back! It’s been a while since you’ve popped in to hang with us.
And it’s more like a kitteh inside a ball running *after* the hamsters instead of along side them. :ROFL

Okay, I have a confession… I kind of like tramp stamps. Depends on the tattoo, of course, but I’d probably get one myself if I weren’t such a baby about the needle part. :crying

Oh Heidi…my 77yo auntie just got one put on her ankle…a black kitteh! Next year when we go to NY we are going to have a tattoo party and we’re all gonna get one!! Im still deciding on mine…Im thinking maybe a ball of yarn with some knitting needles…
but it will not be a tramp stamp or a “ho-tag”.
and yes liquor will be involved! hahahahaha

Happy FBF day!! I have so many allergies that my allergist told me to never get a tattoo.

Heidi says:
That’s my fear, actually. Took a year & a half for my last ear piercing to heal up, so I have huge fear of what would happen to me w/ a tattoo. I’d probably lose a leg! :scared
