Leaving on a Jet Plane

I know it’s not a very original title but deal with it. So tomorrow I leave on my first corporate trip. I have never had to travel for work before and oddly enough I’m on the fence about if I’m looking forward to it or not.

For the most part, I’ve been working for the same company for the last 9 years. I’ve had many different positions in that time but this is the first time they’ve asked me to travel more then an hour away. On one hand I am excited to get to see another part of the company and the country. Over the past few years I have made friends with people all over the country and I’m hoping that my corporate travels will give me the opportunity to meet a few of them.

On the other hand I’ve never done this before. Which isn’t a reason that would keep me from going, (I am an adventurous person) it’s just that looking at my itinerary it seems I am going to be bored more often then not. I have quite a bit of down time. Now I will probably take some time to see the city and check out the night life but some of my down time will not allow me to leave. Oh well we’ll see what happens.

I didn’t tell any of my friends in the destination city that I would be coming in. I figure for my first trip I’ll just focus on my work and getting to know the new processes. Plus since I have to travel with other co-workers it may be difficult to explain how I know some of these people.

I’m hoping that in the future Mrs Cardz will be able to travel with me. Certainly, not all the time but it would be nice to extend my stay in some of these cities into a long weekend and check out the local clubs and parties and meet up with friends we have never seen.

Perhaps this trip will give me some more time to write on this blog. Who knows?

When Night Becomes Day

Before we got married my wife and I had a group of friends that were always looking towards the net step in life. We all graduated from highschool together, went to college, met our “soulmates”, graduated college, started our careers, married our “soulmates”, had kids…..Whoa Whoa Whoa back up a second.

This is where Mrs. Cardz and I started to pull away from that gang. We realized that although this line of thinking was the “social norm”, it just wasn’t for us. We spent so much time looking to the future and the next “step” in our life that we realized we were letting life pass us by. Now that’s not so say we are against kids. If fact we may find ourselves working on turning our “Two of a Kind” into a “Full House” soon but it’s been a few years.

We’ve taken the time to branch out, learn new things and enjoy life. Where as the other six couples five couples have all settled down and now have toddlers a plenty running around we’ve been cruising parties and bars, dancing, and flirting; Learning more about ourselves and the world around us. That’s not to say our old friends didn’t enjoy a party or bar on occasion but more often then not everyone was home by midnight and the big parties were only twice a year. (Halloween and New Years)

Over the past few years we have found a whole new life, one that thrives and hides in the twilight. At the time when our previous friends would be heading home we have found that others are just getting started. There are times, whole weekends where we barely see the sun light. Where we race home battling Evil Grey, the hazy time before the sun breaches the horizon. Where the sky is not totally dark but the day has not yet begun. Big parties happen almost every week. And events we once considered exciting can not hold a candle to what we know today.

Society has no power when a person casts no shadow. We are all just beings. Nomadic creatures searching for life after dusk. Hand in hand we navigate the darkness and the warm life that feeds it. Our future is always on our minds however we rarely let it control our actions. This is the way we live and we’d have it no other way.

But I gotta, Kn-kn-kn-know What-what's Your Fan-ta-ta-sy

I once heard the question “If you live a lifestyle that allows you to experience your fantasies do you ever run out of things to fantasize about?” My answer to this is quite the opposite of what one would expect. Not only do you not run out of fantasies, I have more fantasies now then I did three years ago.

This lifestyle affords me the opportunity to see and do things I never would have imagined had I not seen or heard them first hand. With these new ideas in my head I am cable to morph and play with the scenario and come up with multitudes of new sexy and fun dreams.

A fellow newbie podcaster, wildflower (http://wildflowerthewildside.blogspot.com) listed out the experiences she has had and those fantasies that she would like to experience. Sort of like a sexual promiscuous bucket list. We’ll call it a Slut List. (For those who have not yet read “The Ethical Slut”. 1) GO READ IT and 2) Slut is a term of endearment) Anyway on to my Slut List:

- Threesomes, Foursomes and More-somes

Mrs. Cardz was the first real sexual partner I had ever had. Meaning before her I had done some soft play with other girls but not oral or penetrative intercourse. It wasn’t until after we got married that we started to explore our sexuality both with ourselves and other people. Since then we have had threesomes both MFM and FFM in many forms and fashions. Although there is one I would still like to try. I would love to see Mrs. Cardz give me head while being fucked by another guy doggie style. We’ve done this the other way around where I fucked her but I’d like to watch her face while she gets some in her favorite position. I’d also love to just watch Mrs Cardz in a FMF threesome. Get to see the whole thing from an outsider’s perspective. Like my own little porno.

In the case of more-somes, I love it when everyone is crowded together on one bed. I don’t care how cramped it is. It’s the aura or atmosphere that is intensely erotic in that situation. I’d like to have more play sessions like that.

I’d also like to have a Five-some. FMFMF. I’d like to have two couples and a unicorn. Throw all five people on a bed and pass the unicorn between us. Just sounds like a hot time for all.

-Location, Location, Location

There are a few places I would like to have sex. Some swinging some I’d rather have just me and my wife. The places I would like to have sex with my wife include a movie theater, in a sex swing, on the roof of a building (which is strange since I’m afraid of heights), and on the desk in my office.

There is something about the office sex fantasy. Might have something to do with screwing someone in the place I get screwed everyday. I’m joking. I truly think I have this fantasy because I spend more then 40some hours a week behind that desk. And some times it helps pass the time if

I eroticize the situation. Which includes my wife sauntering in a long trench coat, closing the door, drawing the blinds, opening the coat and she’s wearing some sexy lingerie…..mmmmm….oh yeah back to typing.

A few places I would like to swing at are a hot tub, a car, and an inflatable moon bounce. Both the hot tub and car I’ve sex with Mrs. Cardz in but I think it would be fun to fit two couples on in the front seat and one in the back and just have fun with the new environment. Mrs. Cardz and I are both fans of hot tubs and although we did some playing in the hot tub in Desire it was much too large to get a good mood. I’d like to get 3 or 4 couples in like a 10 person hot tub all just doing their thing.

The last location I listed was an inflatable moon bounce. Now this may seem strange to you however one of my best friends and favorite play partners had a fantasy of playing on a trampoline last year. I was more then happy to assist her in fulfilling that dream. We had a great time. Although we did find some complications that we think will be rectified in a moon bounce. So this summer we’re renting one for our joint birthday party. (More details as they arrive)

-Just Great Ideas

A few fantasies I have that don’t fit into either of the other categories include: Getting a dual blow job from two women in schoolgirl outfits. I went to catholic school all my life but I never really appreciated the schoolgirl outfit until I joined the lifestyle. Where as I have ALWAYS appreciated the dually blow. Put the two together and that’s one HoT fantasy.

Mrs. Cardz and I have not yet tried anal sex. I’d like to give it a go to see what it’s like. Although something tells me it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. (No Pun Intended) On the other hand it could be REALLY HoT. Only one way to find out.

I do have to agree with wildflower on one fantasy. The idea of taking a stripper home one night sounds really HoT! Figure you go to the club see her dancing. Like most people you lust after her. Which in essence is her intended goal but in the end you get the satisfaction of knowing she truly wants you as well. Sounds both gratifying and sexy.

And Lastly there are a few couples in this lifestyle that we have grown close to but have just not had the opportunity to play with yet. We’re hoping that one day soon the stars aline, the clothes come off, and the fun ensues.

Hope these ideas give you something to fantasize about and like I said this list will be adjusted and change over time. I’ll check in on it from time to time and keep you posted.

Questionable Question and Answer Sites

I was brought up in a house which taught me to be courteous and chivalrous. (Which is one of the reasons Mrs Cardz and I met.) It is because of this upbringing that whenever I get the opportunity I like to help people. When I was bored at work or done what I was doing online I used to troll a few question/answer sites to see if I could lend someone some advice. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to do so. However, the other day I was running an enormous query and had some time to spare so I figured I check back in with these sites. What I found made me sick to my stomach.

There were more then a few questions from men and women that, although they varied greatly in wording, can be summed up into these four categories

“My spouse is talking to another woman/man should I be jealous?”

“My spouse no longer wants to have sex. Should I leave them?”

“My spouse wants to try BDSM/Anal/a threesome/etc. They’re Sick!”

“My spouse cheated on me. Should I get a divorce?”

In almost EVERY case there were people who jumped right to telling the person to get a divorce. These are people who don’t know the entire story. People who don’t realize that what they are telling this person to do could drastically change the person’s life. Now I hope that the person with questions will consider all routes before making any rash decisions but it kills me to think that there are people out there taking this advice to heart.

What bothers me, just as much as people actually acting on this advice, is the responses others (including myself) get when we come out as being swingers or have questions about the lifestyle. More often then not when a debate about swinging arises the first volley sent by the opposition (which includes many of these “advisors”) is “What about your wedding vows?”

Perhaps I was too awe-struck by the beauty of the then “soon to be” Mrs Cardz that I missed that part of the ceremony. However I am pretty sure that my wedding vows and those vows that I’ve heard at the dozens of weddings I’ve gone to went something like this.

"I, _______, take you, ________, for my lawful wedded wife/husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until death do us part."

I don’t remember EVER saying we will only experience attraction to each other, I promise to never talk to another person of the opposite sex in anything but a formal manner, or even I will never have sex with anyone else but you.

I do remember saying that this vow is for the entirety of my life. That regardless of what financial, emotional, personal, or physical issues we may encounter I will be there to work them out with you. An amendment was never added to that statement that said if I become jealous because you look or talk to another person or if we can not fulfill each other’s needs this binding promise is void and we will go our separate ways. I’m sure if there was such a clause a red flag would have gone off.

My advice to every one of these people both advice seeker and advice giver is to talk to their partner. Communication has NEVER been a bad thing. Assumptions, rash decisions, and miscommunication rarely lead to good outcomes.

If something your spouse is doing makes you jealous first ask yourself what about it triggers this emotion then talk to your partner. Explain to them that you feel uncomfortable and that you may need to be reassured that you are the only person for them.

If your partner has wants or needs either in or out of the bedroom that you are unsure about talk to them. Find out what it is that they want and why they want to do it. If you still have an issue with the idea, offer an alternative or a way that you can slowly and easily work your way up to your partner’s desires. Your counterpart will be grateful that you are showing an interest in what it is that they want.

And finally on the subject of cheating. If your spouse cheats on you it could be because of one of a million reasons. The only way to find out exactly why is to talk to them. Getting angry and filing for divorce is only going to leave you alone and with unanswered questions. Wouldn’t it be easier and more beneficial if you both swallowed your pride, sat down, and talked about what happened and how to fix it?

That’s just my two cents. Consider it advice for the questions you may never have asked on one of these sites.

One Being Many Personalities (Part Two)

The last two parts of my personality that I’d like to talk about revolve around two of my favorite subjects. Religion and Sex. Someone once told me that on the first date you should never discuss politics, religion, or sex. Well I never really stuck to that. Avoiding politics is easy. I HATE Politics. But Religion and Sex are two of my favorite conversations. Notice I said con-ver-sations. I don’t preach to people about my beliefs and I don’t want to be preached to. I won’t try to change you if you don’t try and change me. That’s not to say that I don’t like a bit of a debate here and there just don’t expect me to convert to whichever mystical being or abstinence program you believe in. With that in mind here are my thoughts.

The Pastafarian. I am agnostic in nature. I believe that there is some sort of higher power out there I just don’t know what the fuck it is. I was in Catholic school for 13 years. I listened in their classes, I followed their rules, and I even took part in their ceremonies. But all throughout my years I have never felt like I belonged there. Christianity just didn’t answer the questions I had; placing too much stock in the idea that if you didn’t believe you were weak.

I also find quite a bit of hypocrisy in it all. Turn the other cheek but stone them if they don’t believe. I look beyond the sins of some of the clergy and realize that some of the most heinous crimes committed have been in the name of someone’s god. Why? Millions if not Billions have died because someone believed that their god wanted them to “cleanse the nonbelievers”. It’s ridiculous.

However it is hard not to believe in a greater power when you stand atop a mountain you had just spent hours climbing and see the vast beauty that is the world. Blue skies, white clouds, all cast off the greens and browns of a landscape. There is a balance and beauty there that nature itself could not do on it’s own.

A little over a year ago I discovered a “religion” (some call a mock-ligion) that spoke to me as a concerned citizen and smart-ass. Pastfarianism is sarcastic look faith. (www.venganza.org) It’s constituents are on a mission to keep other religions from taking over our society. Intellegent Design should not be taught in science class. Yes I know I said I believe in a higher power however my beliefs are not based on some form of tangible evidence that Science requires. Just because a public or government agency places a menorah outside of their building does not mean they are required to place a Christmas Tree there as well. If a member of that agency wishes to do so then that is their choice but you as a person can not drive by their building, be offended, and demand they do so. If you’re offended look the other way or better yet take a different route next time.

RAmen!

Ok getting off my agnostic soapbox and pulling out my next one.

The Swinger. Yes you read it correctly. (This is where I will lose a lot of readers and gain a whole new demographic.) My wife and I are swingers. It is true that we enjoy playgrounds and the occasional baseball game but that is not what I am referring to. In this case I am saying that my wife and I enjoy having sexual interaction with other people outside of the two of us.

*GASP**SHOCK**HORROR* *DAMNATION*

We’ve heard them all. In a nut shell I will lay it out for you. My wife and I have been together for a dozen years. When we got married we were the only person we had had intercourse with was each other and we were very happy with that. If either of us wanted to go back to that lifestyle we would be very happy still. We have always had an openly expressed and adventurous sex life, both of us affording our relationship the ability to experience all the fantasies we desired. Why go through life if you can’t live it.

In school we were both very goal oriented forgoing parties and events to focus on our studies or careers. After we got married we both longed for wilder times. We had no desire to settle down and have kids just yet. We have a great house and both have great careers. We were established and now wanted to enjoy the world.

Almost 3 years ago we found ourselves pushing boundaries we had never thought of pushing, all the while pushing them together hand in hand. In a story I may or may not tell in the future we found ourselves joining a lifestyle we didn’t know existed. Despite the overall outcome of these events we found we really enjoyed the experience and it had brought us even close then we had been before.

A few months and a ton of research later we decided to try a new experience. And in a move which many would consider jumping in head first we took a trip to a resort catered towards members of the nudist and swinger lifestyles. Over that time we had also decided to become what is known as “soft swap swingers”. This means that when “playing” with another couple we can do anything but penetrative intercourse. Kissing, fingering, oral, all are on the table however only my cock can go in my wife’s pussy and rightfully so it can not go in any other pussy. Basically we have foreplay with the other couple then fuck our own spouses. This is not to say that we didn’t enjoy “full swapping’ our first time. We just wanted to take a step back and try everything one step at a time.

We met many GREAT couples on that trip and found we had more in common with them then friends we had known for many years. Because most of these people lived in other parts of the world we were only able to keep in touch via the internet. We still consider some of those people our closest friends.

We got caught up in our day to day life however we fed on that experience and used it as sexual energy and fantasy fodder for months. Over the course of which we did get to attend a local party with a couple we had met on vacation but we stayed with them all night. Month’s later we needed a night out desperately and decided to go out to a party on our own. We had a great time and met a lot of cool people but were still a bit shy. The next morning we met a couple at breakfast and instantly became the best of friends. They have taught us a lot about the lifestyle and helped us learn a lot about ourselves.

Since then we have met many couples that we hang out with all the time. We have found people of a similar mindset that just “get us”. We don’t always play. In fact I’d say less then half the time we see these people does any form of extra-marital activity happen. We just enjoy being together.

If you’ve read this far then I know you are not OVERLY offended by anything I said and I will let you know this. This blog will not be a pedestal for me to stand on and preach about my beliefs on any one subject including Religion and Sex. I will be talking about many things that go on in my day to day life. It is true that these topics will come up because they are part of my day to day life and a part of who I am.

Hope you’ve enjoyed so far. I know I have.

RAmen and great Sex To You

One Being Many Personalities

A little bit about myself. Like I said in “Props to the Penguin” there are many aspects to my being. Unlike the character in Comedity I don’t feel each is it’s own entity. Rather each is a card in the deck that is my being. Some of these cardz include me being… a husband, a friend, a brother, a son, a lover, a fighter, a nice guy, an American, a worker, a flirt, a free-thinker, a wise-ass, a contact juggler, a romantic, a fan, a leader, a Pastafarian, a traveler, a pirate, a swinger, a reader, a writer, a designer, a planner, a regular guy. I’m just your average Jack.

I figure I’ll just pick out a few of those labels and expound on them a bit. Hopefully give you a better idea of what makes me, me.

A husband. Yes I am a married man. I have been with my wife for almost 12 years now. She is the love of my life and I absolutely adore her. I believe that relationships take time and effort. They need to be built and nurtured. That being said I do believe in love at first site. Perhaps it’s the way I was raised but I have always known that when I met the person for me I would know it. And that’s exactly how it happened. I met the woman that would one day be my wife purely by accident. I wasn’t looking for her but I found her. And I knew right away that we would be great together. Yes our relationship would take work and yes we would argue on occasion but I knew the moment I saw her that we had the spark that would overcome all adversity.

A brother, A son. I am the oldest of four kids. Two boys and two girls. All within a few years of each other and born to parents who, at the time, were considered a little too young to be parents. For the most part I get along with my siblings although at times they can be a handful. My parents…well…they will forever be teenagers. They are hippies without the long hair and drugs. They love everything and everyone but no one near as fiercely as they love each other. They are crazy about each other. It would be sickening to see their public displays of affection (PDAs) and to hear them flirting but I’ve become immune to it. Even more so when I consider how my wife and I do the same thing.

I read a book last year where the main character explains how there are actually vampires in the world. No not the classical nocturnal, pale skin, and fangs. The real life vampires are people who feed off energy. Each having a specific emotion that fuels them. Comedians are the easiest to explain. A comedian vampire loves laughter. He loves to see people smile and hear them laugh. A single laugh could sustain them better then any food or drink.

With that in mind my parents are vampires of love. They feed off of the energy of their friends and family around them. My parents have more people who refer to them as “Mom” and “Dad” then the Bradys and Waltons combined. Almost every friend my siblings and I had called my parents Mom and Dad. They were welcomed into our home as if they were born with our surname and most tended to enjoy it there more then their own house. If you were friend you were family. With all the rights and privileges that came with it.

It is with that in mind that I believe that my parents shaped who I am today. (Even though they may never know it.) More to come on that later.

A fighter. I have always been a fan of the fighting arts, anything from knights in armor to muscular men with boxing gloves. They all interested me. I am by no means an aggressive guy. I’m actually more of a passivist. I don’t like confrontation however I enjoy the grace and power that some of these “martial arts” embody. I have studied many forms of fighting. Many of which I have taken with my wife. She being a History Major (and a redhead LOL) shares my passion for war and fighting. We have trained in archery, sword fighting, staff fighting, wrestling and even karate; earning our black belts in the spring of 2009. Like I said we are not overly aggressive we just enjoy the grace and power of these art forms.

That being said it is not uncommon for her and I to match skills at any random occasion. Our favorite arena, and I can’t explain why, used to be Blockbuster video, a video rental chain in our area. Almost every Friday you could find us at one of the local Blockbusters dropping into neutral bows and matching strike for strike. More then a few displays have been the casualty of our stupidity.

I think I’ll stop there for now. I have one or two more that I want to talk about however they are the more controversial sides of my life and I’ll need more time to explain them.

Props to the Penguin

I used to read a webcomic called Comedity which is written by a gentleman named Garth Cameron Graham (http://www.comedity.com). This comic is one of my ALL TIME favorites. Garth is a genius. In my eyes he was able to capture and draw everything going on in my head. He was able to visually portray how I view all of the many facets of my being. In Comedity the main character also named Garth (Coincidence? I think not) has what can only be explained as a counsel in his head. His “head” contains a long table in a dark room where each nuance of his psyche has a seat. Why a dark room you ask? In the tangible version of his comic (i.e. Comedity Volume 1 the book) Garth explains that the room is dark to keep you from seeing how dirty his mind really is. Another reason I loved that comic. Never was the comic blatantly raunchy. However as I read it I related to the character in such a way that I knew some of the dirty thoughts that Garth spoke of.

I bring this all up as a point of reference. I have always seen the many facets of my personality as having their own “presence”. Even years before I stumbled upon Comedity I thought this way. However Garth and I differ in two ways.

One, Garth’s personas can be independent of one another. It is not rare to see “the Ninja” or “Cool Guy” take control of physical Garth controlling his every action. I am too much of a “thinker” to allow that to happen. My mind is constantly running and flowing. I tend to think of my facets as playing cardz or pieces on a chess board. Some if not all are present at all times but only one or a few are active in my next move. This whole concept will explain itself as I write more.

The other way I differ from Garth is, well, Garth is obsessed with Penguins. It is very rare for a Comedity post not to include a Penguin. At first the penguin seemed to be another aspect of Garth’s psyche but as time went on the Penguin began to become more tangible. Eventually evolving into a full-fledged character that many other “tangible characters” (meaning those outside of Garth’s cortex) could interact with. I unlike this genius artist am not obsessed with Penguins. I love Monkeys! LOL! There are many reasons why monkeys play a part in my life and I am sure this will be explained in the near future.

If you’ve read this whole post and are thinking. “Why the Hell did he write this?” My answer is threefold 1) I want to give kudos to a great artist and storyteller b) I want to tell you about a webcomic that is definitely worth reading and may give you a visual comparison to what I write about. And Ω) Because I Can.

A Bit of a Disclaimer

A few things about this blog in know apparent rank or order

1) I can’t spell. No I was not an English major. In fact Spelling and Grammar were my worst subjects. However I do use Microsoft Word in an attempt to reduce the number of my errors. In most cases I am able to catch my spelling mistakes however grammar and syntax blunders are a bit hard to catch.

2) I write pretty much “stream of consciousness”. Which means where my mind goes so does my writing..Ooo SHINY!. What was I saying again. Oh yeah. I will try and stay on point but sometimes it’s more fun this way

3) I am an adult. I expect that anyone who reads this is an adult. I would hope that if you are reading this you are reading from the beginning which includes this disclaimer. I deal with a lot of adult situations. If you are offended by anything I may say on topics like (but not restricted to) sex, cursing, religion, drinking, marriage, and/or sex then I suggest you look for a blog more to your liking. (Yes I know I said sex twice I just felt it should be given extra screen time.) I am not writing this blog because I want to add another mask or card to my deck. I have enough of those. I will not be sugar coating my writing here at all. If that is not to your liking then perhaps this is not the blog for you. If you picked this book up, started reading from the middle, skipped this disclaimer entirely, and subsequently got offended by something I said…well again it’s not my problem

4) Many aspects of my life deal with what some may consider sensitive material. With that in mind I will be changing the names and places of everyone and everywhere involved. This is to cover their ass as much as it is to cover mine. As you read on you’ll understand why I have to do so.

5) And lastly, on the subject of time and updates. I, like any normal person, go through spurts of craziness. I can’t guarantee that I will update this blog every month let alone every week or day. If you enjoy my writings may I suggest using an RSS Reader. This way the moment I update you’ll be notified and you won’t have to waste your time checking back here constantly.

I think that about covers it all. Check back soon. Now that the formalities are out of the way we can get this show moving.

Jack of All Trades Master of None

Having always been a fan of expressing myself through the written word I find myself creating long-winded articles, poems, and even fictional stories to put my thoughts and feelings into some sort of tangible state. Some I find great pride in. Others…not so much.

What becomes even more difficult then creating quality work, is answering the question of who I can show my pieces to. As the title of this post articulates, I am the “Jack of All Trades Master of None”. I dabble in a little bit of EVERYTHING. The issue with this is as I have learned new things, made new acquaintances, and had new experiences over the short span in time that is my life I have acquired what some consider “masks”. Faces and suits that I put on depending on the situation or crowd I am in. Some of these masks I have slowly adopted over time never realizing they were there until some event caused me to ask “Who I am supposed to be?”. Other masks I have donned out of necessity. Something dictated that I needed to hide a piece of myself for one reason or another so I did.

I decided to begin writing this blog in essence to keep myself sane. To show that yes I am one person. I am not insane. I just wear masks.

Now if your reading this and think “Wow this is Dark.” or “This guy is nuts.” Or “I bet this guy has long black hair, wears eyeliner, black nail polish, and writes bad poetry.” Let me set a few things straight. I am typing this with a smile on my face. I look forward to sharing myself and my many personas with the world and you. Also although I do have semi-long hair but it is not black. I don’t wear nail polish. I only wear eye-liner on the rare occasions that I get to dress like a pirate. However sadly I have been known to write some pretty crappy poetry.

With all that in mind if you think mine could be an interesting story then I invite you to tune in and enjoy the craziness that is me. All of me. Every personality I have. From Jack to Ace. From King to Pawn. Should be interesting.
