Friday Night, Vol 4: The Power of Azzura

I wear Clinique's Happy most of the time (even though I own more than forty perfumes), but when I'm going on a date, I prefer the number one man-eating perfume out there: Azzura. This stuff is powerful. No man can resist it. And when it's strategically sprayed in certain spots -- spots you know he will nuzzle and caress -- it's even more powerful.

Such was my evening last night. Azzura not only roused him, it drove Him MAD. Azzura was delicately sprayed on the inside of my thighs, the back of my neck, both wrists; I placed a gentle dab on my cupid's bow. I took a Kleenex and sprayed it with this magical scent and wiped it across my breast. I even used a spritz it in my freshly-blowdried hair.  I then stood in front of a fan and let the air diffuse the intensity of the scent, so that I didn't go out smelling like a perfumery. (I don't recommend this amount unless you do the fan trick). What was left was a delicately scented woman, squeezing her thighs together throughout the whole evening.

I could have fucked Him. I wanted to. Really wanted to. But it would have only frustrated me. I'd be on the blog two days later, regretting it. However, third base and a half was reached. It took all the strength in my body not to head for home base, and He knew it. He tried to take me there, with his promise of multiple orgasms and how he could hold off from climaxing for hours. Swoon.

Composed I stayed.

Barely.

I did spend the night at his condo; a nice downtown bachelor pad with a great view. He wanted to make love with the lights out, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. I wanted to as well, but Good Girl Promise, remember? Instead, we set up camp in front of the windows, where we sipped the driest Cabernet Sauvignon, kissed, and talked about...of all things, work. 

Two and a half glasses of wine later, I was on my tummy, the spaghetti straps of my dress pulled down for a much-needed massage from him. His hands felt amazing. "Can I be honest with you," he said, while massaging me.

I moaned.

"Your perfume is driving me crazy."

"I'm not wearing any perfume," I lied. "That's just my shower gel." I think he bought it. I think the scent was just delicate enough for the lie to go over.

We kissed for a while, and he suckled my nipples. He tried to head downtown, but I stopped him...reluctantly. He asked me if I was sure; I said yes. We laid together watching the city, cuddled, breathing the scent of fermented grapes into each other's face. He put on 95.5 WMUA and we fell asleep to jazz.

We both didn't wake up until noon, where we headed to Ann Sather for breakfast.

I'd say things went well.

Now I'm home, ready to take a hot bath, order in some Chinese. Then...I await His call.

The game begins.

Tick-Tock

So there I was, standing in line at Walgreens, a bottle of orange juice and a box with the acronym e.p.t. stenciled across it in my hands. The orange juice is there to make me feel better. This is no big deal; just a city girl buying orange juice and a pregnancy test. There's an old white-haired lady behind me with a tube of KY Jelly and tampons. Okay.... In front of me is a middle-aged man, looking jolly with chubby red cheeks. "Hurry up," he barks to cashier, "I left my car running." Well, so much for jolly. It was my turn. I manage to stop my hand from shaking long enough to put my things on the counter and pry my wallet from my handbag. I paid and fled. Jan's waiting in the lobby of my apartment building, chatting up my doorman. When he spots me he frowns. "Oh, look at you, honey," he says while hugging me. "C'mon, baby, let's get this over with." I smile, comforted by his genuine concern. When Jan's being comfort, his acc...

Broiling Alive

Some of you might not be aware of this but Chicago has morphed into the fiery pits of Hell, with atrocious sunburned feet to boot. See, this is why I hate summer, for this exact reason. Why do people insist on wearing flip flops in the sun? I can't tell you how many hundreds of sunburned feet I witnessed just last week alone. Jan managed to drag Diana and me to the beach on Sunday, where we both proceeded to bake and die immediately. Jan didn't care -- he was busy working on his "sex tan." You know, the kind where there's a dramatic tan line around the hips. The Swedes sure know how to tan, don't they? you would think with them being Nordic that they would just burn to a crisp, but no -- golden brown goodness all the time. This weekend, Diana's apartment was a cooling center. We conked out with old Glamours and iced raspberry-lemon tea. I don't know why Diana is afraid to throw away magazines. I swear there is a 1997 issue of Glamour with some supe...

Comfort Food

For lunch, I treated myself to a delicious T-bone steak, medium rare, and buttery mashed potatoes seasoned with kosher salt. There's nothing better in this world than buttery mashed potatoes seasoned with kosher salt. Comfort food, if you will. I needed that steak today like I need oxygen. It was pertinent to my survival; pertinent to my keeping my job.  Eating the steak today reminded me of how I've used comfort foods to get me through tough periods.  Breaking up with Michael: Macaroni and cheese. From scratch. I made  béchamel sauce and used several cheeses. I'd make a big pot and use chicken and broccoli to make it even more comforting. It was a glass of Riesling, mac and cheese, and a journal that got me through those tough weeks.  Losing a BIG Account: Meatloaf and mashed potato sandwiches. It was my first year at the firm and this was THE account to get, and I blew it. I ordered this sandwich two weeks in a row for dinner.  When Sister Attempted Suicide: ...
