Straitjacket

Bjarni's finally coming home from America on Saturday and we're going to spend the holiday here with his family in Iceland, which I'm very much looking forward to. Although, seems Icelanders don't drink on Christmas Day, this'll be my first sober Christmas since I was 12.

I'm especially looking forward to spending some three-dimensional time with my cariad again – there's only so much that MSN can do for us, hey. Although, Bjarni has upgraded me to something called "Skype Sex" now, which—given that I'm a bit frigid—mostly finds me hiding under the bed, peeking out every so often to see if there's anything interesting going on.

I'm tempted to demand he wear something really, really uncomfortable for his entire journey back over here, like a leather thong, or a straitjacket perhaps. Just like when I went to visit him last month and he suggested I travel "in a really short skirt and no knickers", so that he could "have his way with me" as soon as I landed in Cali.

Um, a short skirt and no knickers on a transatlantic flight? As if! I find flying stressful enough as it is, thanks, without having to worry about my Britney bulging out.

  2. You should get him to wear one of those donkey thongs. You can get them on eBay and they're very uncomfortable to wear under clothing.

    So I hear.

  4. If you want Bjarni to be really uncomfortable why not make HIM wear the short skirt and no knickers on the flight home?

  5. Yes, instant messaging is a bit special like that, isn't it? Then you actually arrive at the airport and it's all polite 'hi, how was your flight?'-ing and worrying about how rubbish your hair looks. Or maybe that's just me.

  6. Exactly Patroclus! That's how I am too.

    Swearing lady, I put "bulging" into thesaurus.com before posting to see if there was a better word, but "billowing" and "sagging" worked even less.

    I'm afraid of what would happen should I suggest the skirt-sans-knickers combo to Bjarni, actually.

  7. Yes, if he wanted you to endure a bulging Britney, then he should have to wear leather (I bet "pleather" would be even more uncomfortable). You should at least suggest it.

    As my parents stopped drinking when they found Jesus, all holidays are booze-free. It's very hard. I've taken two days off after Christmas to do a little catching up.

  9. no drink on christmas - you'll never cope. Maybe you could hide a bottle of whiskey in the donkey thong and take secret sips when necessary.

  10. Why didn't you drink when you were 12?

    Was the snow so heavy that year that no booze could be brought in? I shudder at the thought of that happening this year.

  11. Hey baby, would you mind wearing a short skirt and no knickers to meet me at the airport? And heels?

    That would be great.

    Thanks!

  12. I think it's called an arab strap, kav. And there's a Scottish band named after it. I think they're called Arab Strap, or is it Belle & Sebastian? One or the other.

  14. For Bjarni's flight might I suggest the Men's long Victorian corset available at Stormy Leathers right there in S.F.
    That'll learn him.

  17. I am very upset that Skype Sex has no Welsh-language option...

    Also, in my day, young lady, we had to use a phone for long-distance sexin'. Kids these days with their fancy cybersex...

  18. GO with the thong.

    Not only is it uncomfortable, but it raises a lot of disturbing questions. ;)

  19. Welsh language option? Skype sex? I don't use the sound actually. I'm too shy. So I just keep MSN open too.

    Although I haven't figured out how to turn the microphone off yet, so Bjarni's always like, "pfft! I can hear you typing!"

  26. Happy new year to you too Isabella! And Thusday, I blonked again. Sorry but I was in lo-tech Snowdonia and then even lower-techier Ireland.

    Knudsen, I'm not sure what you mean? Am confused.
