I'll start by apologizing that this post was not up Friday morning. I spent Thursday night in the Emergency Room and when I got home at 5am on Friday, blog posting was the second thing on my mind - after sleeping. My apologies.
I want to give a HUGE shout out to all of my twitter friends who answered my questions about appendicitis early Thursday morning and then spent the next 36 hours wondering where the heck I was and asking each other if I was okay. In the end, I turned out to be the best kind of sick and will tell you all about it tomorrow. I sincerely appreciate the kindness of people who have never met me in person. Next time someone asks me what the point of Twitter is, I will tell them, THAT IS THE POINT.
In happier news, I am THRILLED to tell you that BLOGGING DANGEROUSLY has been nominated for TWO Blog Competitions! The first is the 2010 Blogger's Choice award for Best Blog of All Time! Please vote for me here.
The second is the BLOGLUXE awards where I was nominated in FOUR categories: including Funniest, Guilty Pleasure, Most Provocative and Most Inspiring. Thank you for voting!
And seriously, I really appreciate the nominations. Thank you.
This weekly wrap up is tough because it seems like last week was 100 days ago instead of just 7. It's hard enough doing this when I haven't spent part of the last week hanging out with a meth addict and a 1/2 blind guy but this week the sleep deprivation has taken it's toll. So I'm turning the stage over to you guys (we all know that's why you're here.) Here we go:
On the post, Summer Sexstice:
Bravo to you! I also like random-household-furnishings-sex. Ie...kitchen counter, dining room chair, back of the couch...etc! Its exciting cuz there's the naughty factor, plus the "what-if-we-get-caught" factor. I'm sure ur husband was thrilled also.

Kit: I'm taking notes.. dining room chair, back of the couch... got it. I'll keep you posted!
Whew! Close call! My husband would never take the chance of being caught by the kids...or at least, not unless I got him a little drunk. In which case he'd be so loud he'd be guaranteed to wake the children.

Kit: My husband is never louder than I am - at least not until the charlie horse takes over his calves!
Can barely fit the pots and pans in my tiny ass kitchen, much less a nooky island. JEALOUS!
And, um, maybe Sextice is a US thing? You'll have to enlighten those of us from Down Under :)signed, reality_chick
Kit: Sextice is not a US thing - it's something I completely made up as an excuse to have hot summer sex but Down Under you have an EVEN better reason to celebrate the Winter Sextice because you're not sweating all over each other this time of year. Call it 4th of July Sex (since you won't be distracted by bon fires and fireworks) and have your own celebration!
I need to salute the power of Summer Sexstice! The last few days have been mind blowing -- life-altering, even -- including today's not-apocryphal-after-all morning workout. Mrs. D doesn't read your blog, so I don't know if it's coincidence, old Druid magic, or me channeling the power of your blog, but holy mother of Christ!
I LITERALLY can not thank you enough. And if you find that I'm not commenting as often as usual, then please understand that I have a very good reason.

Kit: This comment thrilled me to my bits! I'm so TRULY happy that my blog is helping other people have more sex. Really, that is TOTALLY FREAKING AWESOME!

On the post, Overheard:
We love men... we love them a lot. Tell your husband we love men so much we could even eat a whole one :)
signed, Paxochka
Kit: Really, he wouldn't be concerned with you eating a whole one, just the part he offered until he was done. Of course, mentioning eating him would probably have me completely forgiven.
::dies:: best conversation EVER.
signed, Midgey
Kit: We have these conversations all the time with it usually leading to one or the other of us trying to prove to the other that we don't hate the other gender. Thus all the sex.

On the post, Genetics 101:
NHL loves to sit on the couch and play with himself. We usually gently tell him to stop. (We don't want to teach him that touching himself is wrong... just that it's not something you do in public.) My wife is convinced that he's learned it from someone but I don't know who. He couldn't have learned it from her and our three year old can't play with himself through his pull-up. Who does that leave? *whistles innocently*

Kit: This reminds ME of the time I told my co-worker that my husband was a stay at home dad and that I had 2 sons (daughters had not yet arrived) and he looked at me and burst out laughing and said, "You're going to come home and they'll all be watching SportsCenter in their Underwear." Of course, it's totally happened regardless of the addition of two daughters! (my husband just wears Champion shorts.)

On the post, Ten Things that have made me Laugh Lately:
I guess as long as YOU'RE not having to use the magnifying glass to find the "wenis" it's all good.
signed, thenextmartha
Kit: Oh sometimes it's fun to grab the magnifying glass and jump under the sheets to see what I can "find."
okay, #4 made me laugh so hard i shot diet dr pepper out my nose. Totally worth it! I love your stories :) I look forward to reading your blog every afternoon. Thanks again for making my day!
signed, Heather
Kit: I love it when you people snarf. It's horribly wrong of my I know but I would rather GOOGLE Analytics tracked SNARFS than Page Views. It seems more telling. I'm evil like that.
HAHAHAHA You have awesome kids! I especially love your 3yo!
signed, Dramaindc
Kit: She is unbelievable. She sashays and struts and can wither you with a look. She has that native confidence that people are SO jealous of and she's always had it. I wish I had half her confidence.

On the post, Writing Assignment:
A little aside here that I am terribly terrible about giving credit where credit is due when it comes to recognizing people who have inspired me - not because I don't WANT to but because I have a terrible, terrible memory for names and faces particularly during #wineparty. But I do have to say that two weeks ago during wineparty some more-sober-than-they-should-have-been folks started haiku-ing into the #wineparty stream and completely intimidating me because Haiku has always scared me. Usually it's because it's in japanese :) but mostly because the cleverest haiku-ers tend to go sideways with the final 7 syllables and then I'm all "Huh? Could you use more words and tell me what you're trying to say?" but, of course they don't.
Anyway, the haiku during #wineparty was very fun and very simple and it seemed like a perfect writing assignment! Apparently you agreed because we had massive audience participation.
THANK YOU.
Let's have an orgy
the solstices got me really horny
everyone can join-d H-Arza
Faithful friend, is she. Buzzing like a bumblebee. Brings Kit to her knees.
signed, sylvester_33
Kit: You know what, you have to read them. If I picked the best ones I'd have to reprint them all.
Click here to read them yourselves. They're awesome.
So thank you again for all of the well wishes. More info on my health scare turned sitcom tomorrow - including why my pee is the color of Easter Egg Dye (or Orange Fanta, take your pick.)
Thank you again for the comment love. It makes my day, every time I get an email alert that someone has left a comment.
Thank you for the blog award nominations. Remember, vote as often as you'd like here and here. :)
Have a great week.
I feel like the WORST friend ever. I adore you and somehow I missed your being sick. I'm terrible and should be shot.
Love will make up for this, right?
