So Friday … Apparently Raef mentioned something at lunch on Friday about some wives being untamable. A relatively benign statement, until, that is, he turned to my husband and said with a wink “isn’t that right?” It’s not as though that aspect of our marriage isn’t common knowledge at my husband’s office. The problem is that when Raef brings it up it makes everyone else who’s present feel like they then have a license to openly discuss the topic with my husband- which invariably means lots and lots of questions. Most of the people my husband works with genuinely like and care for him, so I’m fairly confident that there’s never any animus on their part. It’s simply natural for people to be inquisitive about such an erotically charged and quasi-taboo lifestyle. Personally, I get it. But being the focal point for that particular line of questioning generally always makes my husband extremely uncomfortable. And Friday was no exception. According to Raef (who, quite characteristically, exhibited not an ounce of remorse on our call yesterday), it all started out innocently enough with a couple of questions about how I find my lovers. But apparently it took a quick turn for the worse when one of the administrative assistants in their group, Kim, asked my husband if it was true that I prefer bulls (yes, she used that exact term) who are super well endowed, and then, not even bothering to wait for his response, immediately followed up with “how does it feel seeing her with men like that?” Raef was laughing into his phone as he delivered that last line. But he said that he quickly intervened on hubby’s behalf when he sensed his reluctance to field that particular question. And I’m not going to lie, his answer was surprisingly insightful. He told the group that hubby has zero reason to ever feel insecure about our marriage, because he fulfills 95% of my needs. It’s just that one little 5% area where hubby needs a lending hand (he chuckled over the phone when he said it). But when Kim chimed in with “lending dick, you mean,” and everyone laughed, that was when Raef said that he could see my husband’s temples start to throb. According to Raef, Chrissy immediately chimed in by telling Kim to shut the hell up. He said that he thought I might find that particular fact interesting. Then he abruptly switched gears and asked if I wanted to come over tomorrow afternoon to watch Green Bay lose to New Orleans. I told him that sounded like a fabulous idea, but only if he was willing to put his money where his mouth is. I suggested a straight up $1,000 bet on the game. His counter proposal was $1k to me if the Pack wins, and a three way with me and Jessica if they lose. I laughed and conceded factoring in the spread for an awesome wager like that one. I also said I was having lunch with Jessica at the club today, and that I’d ask her if she was up for a little gambling. On the Chrissy front, I have my flight and room booked for this coming weekend. The trick is going to be figuring out how to keep my kids from blowing my cover with hubby. I decided the best call is to tell my hubby on Thursday that I have an emergency trip to the U.K. this weekend. That should do the trick quite nicely, I think. Incidentally, my texting with Darius has led to a super hot installment to the Jamarcus story that should be up within the next day or so. For some reason, thinking about my son’s coach and his perfect BBC gets me into a super creative mindset 😊
