Happy Anniversary to Us!

Thirteen years.

And what does The Anniversary mean? Why, sex, of course :) And a nice brekkie out at the hotel we stayed at on wedding night #1. And a cheesy moment in the car where I told M. she's the most beautiful woman I know and no one can compare. It's been a nice day.

More details on our Big Date last night:

DtD asked what he'd be expected to ejaculate into because if it was the syringe he'd "need at least a 10 cc, maybe a 20 cc" and "time to practice." I assured him that we'd provide a nice sterile specimen cup.

Then he explained to M. what an uncircumcised penis looks like using the same water snake analogy I'd given when trying to explain the foreskin to her previously.

(Aside: the first time I had to cath an uncircumcised penis I had to ask one of the gay male nurses for help - I had no idea what to do with the thing.)

Also found out that DtD and BF love House of Flying Daggers as much as I do. They proclaimed that Takeshi Kaneshiro (Jin) is "hot".

The continuing contract drama (aka, I'm really starting to hate lawyers):

We got the proposed changes and one provided a "eh, what the hell?" moment which sent us into a panic spiral for part of the afternoon. So I called our boy up and we discussed the details. Turns out his lawyer had misinterpreted what he said. I've realized that contracts need human touch behind them. You can't legislate everything. In this situation there has to be some trust between parties to make things work. I think the contract will finally be signed on Thursday. It feels like this entire exprience has been by the skin of our teeth.

Insemination details:

The earliest we'll insem is Sunday night. We're both working so it will be a stop and drop. If we start Monday it'll be at our house. DtD should call tomorrow to tell us when we can expect the test results back and my job is to discuss HOW we're going to do this.

You see, we have a small house, about 1100 square feet, one story. One bedroom is the sewing room. Another is ours. There's a bathroom in between. We thought about taking a walk but M. thinks I should be being 'prepared' while DtD masturbates. Which leads to the question...WHERE is this going to happen??? We are boy-ignorant so we have NO IDEA how this works. Can he just do IT on the couch? Should we pull out the hide-a-bed?

Any ideas? Suggestions? Your own experiences???

Becoming His Sex Nag:

I also have to tell DtD when he should and should not be having sex. According to our plan, he needs to have sex between now and Thursday. Then NO MORE. That's me, sex nag.

M. is back at work tomorrow and I'm planning to have a fun day being domestic. I swear I'll get back to short snappy posts once all this drama calms down.

Thank you! You give me hope. And it wasn't TMI. It was perfect.

Oooh, I'm so excited for you two! This weekend, yay!

Well, our donor didn't need a bed or anything, when he was at our house he was in the downstairs livingroom sitting on a coffee table in front of the TV (porn flick rented from goodvibes). But your guy might be different.

We also invited our child into our lives with a ceremony. But ours involved our donor and it was before he made his contribution for the month. Very moving and I truly believe that Julia did join us in spirit at that time, and then hung around waiting for the physical stuff to line up. Whatever you four choose to do will be fine.

The problems you're describing with the contract are some of the reasons we chose not to use a lawyer to draft the thing. Lawyers are too scary and too fierce. They're paid to think of the worst possible scenarios despite who the people involved are. I'm glad that you guys are talking things out now and putting the human touch/face to the interaction.

Now, if you can get your donor to do what zuazua's did and put the stuff in the syringe for you that would be wonderful! It would really avoid a lot of the smell issues.

We don't use a catheter just a 5cc oral medicine syringe and He is kind enough to put the semen in the syringe for us.

Our technique:
Place Instead cup in a fluted glass
(He prefers masturbating into the Instead cup over baby food jar)
I think he stays in the living room. Never needed to use the VCR/DVD.

Take cell phone and DP to lobby with a magazine.

Get the call.

Legs up, hips on pillow, no speculum

DP prays, does her thing and leaves me alone because I masturbate faster when alone.

Stay in bed for an hour (overkill but hey). 20 minutes on my back then shift to one side, stomach and then the other side. Orgasm as often as I can.

But hey don't listen to us we're 0 for 3 at home and 0 for 4 at RE
