The past few weeks have been tiring and difficult. Physically and emotionally, the aftermath of Katrina has taken a toll on all parts of my life. There is one part though that has changed in a way I didn't really expect. There has only been one day since we evacuated that my wife and I did not fcuk. I am not talking about the 10 minute quickies, I mean 40 - 60 minute sessions. Even when we were sharing a room with the kids in the hotel, we somehow were able to have a lot of fun. With 10 people staying in my house, sleeping on inflateable mattresses, we with no air conditioning, we thoroughly enjoyed each others company. Only the one day when our youngest child slept with us that we just slept.
Being me, I tend to try and analyze things to satisfy my quest for understanding. At first I was thinking it was the thrill of being caught or atleast being over-heard by those with us. But, we have been caught before and it didn't stop us. ( many years ago we were staying at her parent's house and her father walked right in the bedroom while we were at it and started to talk to us - we didn't stop) Then I was thinking it was some stress relief because of our situation. Not too many natural things can relax you as an orgasm or two.
I think it is something more. During all this time, I felt closer to my wife than I had in years. Not the sex part, but the feel of being happy to still be with her. To still feel alive when I look at her. I was no longer focusing on little pet peaves, I was seeing her for the beauty and the person I fell in love with so long ago.
