Lovers Lane a seXual entry
For all you visual people, sorry no pictures today. And that's a shame since this entry is seXual in nature. You all will just have to be satisfied with my descriptive writing.
The whole thing started with my friend Sharon ( not her real name). Recently Sharon and I have done a few things together that have caused people to question our sexuality. The first thing we did was go to The Sybaris, a hotel for lovers only, so that she could book a room for her and her husband Wayne's ( not his real name ) anniversary.
The first thing I noticed there was a thing called the Wedge. The Wedge is a giant pillow shaped like a wedge. Let me just say, you can buy a wedge pillow for twenty bucks at Walmart and use it for things like reading in bed etc... This Wedge however, was around $100.00 and used for sexual purposes. Person one lays on the wedge so that person two has good angles to " do" person one.
I'll be the first to admit that although I am 49 years old, I am very immature when it comes to sex. So the first thing I do is laugh. Then I say loudly, " Sharon, check out this way too expensive wedge". " How stupid is this ? " Just use regular pillows for free. " Sharon turns beet red because she is very innocent and sheltered and it took a lot for her to even book the Sybaris. She says " uh huh." So then, not letting it go, I say, " No seriously, do NOT let Wayne buy this wedge, you could just lay on your stomach like the girl in the picture is doing, with regular pillows. "$100.00, wow, what a rip off, really Sharon, trust me, you be creative, your already dropping enough money here." I am pretty sure that although I mentioned Wayne a few times, the clerk still thought we were a couple. Which was fine by me since I am gay friendly.
After the whole Sybaris thing, Sharon and I are very comfortable with people thinking we are lesbians, which is a good thing, since when she took me house hunting, the realtor definitely thought we were a couple. Even though I made it clear the house would be just for me, she kept trying to figure out what Sharon had to do with it. She finally decided I wanted to live near Sharon and we just let her think whatever she wanted.
Now that Sharon and I are an unofficial couple, and she has spent a night at the Sybaris with Wayne, ( they didn't buy the wedge), she has decided I am her go to girl for all things sexual.
So she calls me yesterday to inform me that Lovers Lane, the nearby sex store is having a fifty percent off sale and wonders if I want to go with her. I am totally up for it, one because I need a distraction from the fact that expunge brought the skanky, weathered, lady friend, over that morning, and second, because I am fun.
" Can I bring my camera?" I ask. She says no because she has not taken a shower, but I know that's not why. I decide it will still be fun, even if I can't take pictures.
The first thing Sharon and I do is head over to the dildo/vibrator section even though neither of us are planning on buying one. This is mostly because the place is really busy, and no one is in this section.
I am prepared to get rid of any pushy clerk, since the last time I was there a couple years ago, they were VERY forward and really tried to sell me on huge vibrators and other expensive toys. And even though I made it clear I wasn't interested, they still pushed.
Fortunately for us, this time, they are busy with "real" customers, who are not immature and not sheltered or shy.
Personally, I am shocked at peoples openness. The sales clerks were discussing orgasms and penetration with people, like you would discuss the virtues of a new car. It's just very disconcerting when one is laughing about a giant Afro - American Whooper with Balls, and you hear right next to you " This is guaranteed to give her wonderful orgasms if used correctly." And the customer looks fascinated and not at all embarrassed.
While we are talking about how the testicles didn't seem to be a necessary component to the Afro -American Whooper with Balls fake penis, I get a call. It just happens to be my friend and my kid's former choir director, Tom ( not his real name). " OMG, it's Tom, I am totally telling him how you dragged me here" I say to Sharon. Tom seems taken aback when I tell him Sharon and I are at Lovers Lane looking at Whoopers. He also seems to be confused as to why they are open on New Years Day, why they are having a sale, and more importantly why we are there." Even though I practically yell into the phone that Sharon is actually holding the African American Whooper, as we speak, he still seems confused as to why we are there and asks if " isn't Sharon Lutheran?", which she confirmed as being the case. Apparently, Lutherans are not usually shopping for a fake black penis, or anything similar to one.
After it is made clear that Tom is NOT interested in how Sharon won't buy Wayne a little leather skirt covering for his wee wee ( I told you I'm immature), I get off the phone.
I am annoyed that I don't have my camera, since I want Sharon to take a picture of me playing on the swing, with stirrups, apparatus, that is hanging in the middle of the store. I'm not sure how to use it, or what it's for, but it looks kind of fun, and definitely profile picture worthy.
I almost bought some oils that had pheromones in them, but we couldn't figure out if they were meant to attract males or females. Although as I said, I am gay friendly, I didn't want to waste five bucks on something that would have women swarming all over me. Besides, I thought they smelled horrible and didn't understand how they could make one a "sexual magnet." Sharon agreed. The most I would attract with the oils would be a mangy dog, and that would be pushing it.
Sharon ended up getting some good, smelling, massage oils, which Tom pointed out could be bought at a non sex store. However, he seems to have missed the whole sale aspect and the fact that looking at giant Afro - American, Whoopers with Balls is the only way to start the New Year off.
Some people don't know what they're missing.

shocking! I'm shocked, I tell you!
Haha. That picture would have been hilarious. Next time you should sneak the camera in & ask a clerk to take the picture since Sharon is going to be acting like she doesn't know you.
I would definitely be the Sharon in this situation, just thinking about being in her shoes with you saying such things makes me blush.
@NikBv - I know, I am risque, but it had to be written
@DiscordInTheGarden - ha ha, yeah, poor Sharon but whatever it was her idea.
Oh in these times of economic hardship it is HEARTWARMING to see that SOME AMERICANS are willing to WORK THEIR ASSES OFF ON JANUARY 1 TRYING TO MAKE AN HONEST DOLLAR.
Besides, as I always say, a dirty mind is a terrible thing to wash...
As for Bible thumper Tom, you might want to tell him that Sharon and Wayne just want to do what the good Lord and Lutheran synod said to do and BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY.....and that they are POLITICALLY CORRECT AND INTEGRATED as far as their toys are concerned.
@forwhomthebelsentolls - HA HA, Tom's not really a Bible thumper, I think he was being funny, albiet, confused. However, he might point out that Sharon won't be mulitplying any more any time soon and that massage oils might not be needed to procreate.
I enjoyed this. Does that make me weird? LOL Great post!
Kathi
There is a local shop here in the sticks that sells similar items. They also sell fancy lingerie too. Cindy, the woman who owns the shop, and I have become friends since her expertise on vintage looking stockings, corsets, etc. She is also a distributor for my calendars, especially since her merchandise is used in the calendars.
She is very professional and makes here customers, mostly women, feel comfortable buying there. But, I have to admit, there's that little immature part of me that notices what the other customers of the female persuasion are buying. Not wanting to hurt Cindy's business, I've refrained from saying "Hey, if you want to try that on I'll give you a man's opinion."
@Still_groovy - Kathi, I'm shocked by your pun. "Huge Props" hahaha
Sometimes I kill myself.
Looks like no more book clubs but sex shop reviews....
Interesting post I'll give you that, good luck with the move.
roflmao!
Been there, done that, got the t-shirts and own all the above mentioned sex toys too, including the sling, which is harder to get into when you are past 60! After 12 years of marriage you kind of get over it all though.
Happy New Year!
@Still_groovy - Thanks, yes you are weird but I'm the one who wrote it so... who's the weird one.
@BB61 - Oh please be imature at the place, then write about it. Also, keep up your farm I need to fertalize.
@PPhilip - No, I can do both
@ElevenStones - Thanks!!!! Always like to be " interesting"
Hope the move turns out well myself.
@lacemagicke - please expain the sling and what it is for ? Also, you have the Afro American Whooper? Are the tesicles nessasary? If so, why?
@BB61 - You just kill me too.
@momofjenmatt - Sling is like "swing"and moves the same way, get the picture? Don't own the "whopper" but have seen many. No reason for testicles other than it's made that way and some people prefer realistic looking items for their toys.
Used to sell sex toys years ago and gave many a lecture on their uses to 'newbies' too. Also gave many lectures on safe sex and the care and cleaning of sex toys too: always use condoms on them and always wash and/or sterilize them after use even it was only used by you. This includes body parts!!
@lacemagicke - ahhhh, interesting.
Lol.
@cokebottlefigure - : )
ROFL that was gold
Ahahaha, sounds like you started off the New Year exactly how you're supposed to.
(I would have taken random pictures anyway.)
@ShimmerBodyCream - Thanks
@Pandiie_Bear - I actually forgot the camera, or I would have.
@momofjenmatt - Aw! Oh well, at least you have memories and the ability to blog about it so humorously. ;3
First off I have to tell you that there is a street close to me that is named Lover's Lane and I will forever think of you and a whopper every time I see it now!
You said the saleman from another visit was "pushing" the vibrators? Hmmm....interesting sales approach!
I remember my first visit to a toy store and I knew NOTHING about most things in there, but I had gone with a female friend who knew (and probably has used) about most of the things. A lot made me giggle so she finally said "I will tell you when we leave" when I asked questions about things! I was like a giggling teen!
@Low_Mom - yeah maybe next time I'll be cooler.
ROTFL the funniest thing I ever did was go to a sex toy store with my best friend and her sister - shopping for things for her sister's bachelorette party. Except... her sister is a Muslim. Hard core. Black head covering that goes to the floor, the whole works. DO YOU KNOW how many bizarre looks one gets when dressed like that, in a sex store? Not to mention, standing next to a girl wearing a star of david necklace (which makes everyone assume I'm Jewish, which I'm not, but I don't want to blog in your comments anymore than I already have).
I actually have only been to a sex store once when I was taking a friend who was discovering her independence (sexual and otherwise) and the task was to get her a vibrator. She ended up getting the teeniest tiniest one, but you have to start somewhere, right? My husband is the one who is more interested in and does the purchasing of sex toys. Isn't he sweet? (-:
@radicalramblings - Are you in a gang? The star of David is a gang sign too. OMG, about the Muslim girl ha ha, can't imagine.
I'm trying to remember what Martin Luther said about Whoopers when he nailed that note on the church door...
I chuckled all the way through this. Those sex stores are a hoot, and you obviously have a great sense of the absurd. I'm glad your lady friend (but not that kind of friend!) can stand up to it!
@CuriousGeorgina - @Bad_Dogma - Thanks for the comments. Sorry so late getting back. Dogma where have you been? And Georgina, absurd is my life, I have to appreciate it.
Whenever I think of dildoes, I think of cacti.
@twoberry - ouch
Your article is written very content, All of the projects look great! you make it look so simple to make this purse that I'll have to try it myself! Thanks!
