Have you ever held up your hand and said, “Enough.” I have and I said it today. I’m tired and I needed to shut down. I seem to burn the candle at both ends and then I need to recuperate.

Life comes at you fast and I’ve had days to simply streak by me lately at break neck speed. There aren’t enough hours in the day to get everything done. Sometimes we just need to call it quits and regroup.
I keep telling myself if I was better organized things would be better. But no matter how hard I try to organize something always happens to tilt me off course. Like a wind blowing through that takes my sails and turns them in a different direction. And before you know it…I’m behind again.

I’ll keep trying of course. I don’t seem to have a choice. But I swear, sometimes giving up sounds like a wonderful option to me. Did you ever have one of those days?

Just posted to The Nice n’ Naughty Blog my take on looking for love online. I’m for it. lol…but as a little added bonus I wanted to post here about an experience I had with a Robot. You know. One of those programs that supposedly acts like a human and you think you are talking to a human. Well I’ve been told there are programs so good you would never know the difference and that a lot of men and women are easily fooled in chat rooms. This particular experience happened to me while I was working

on a manuscript. I had MySpace IM on and this message popped up and not knowing who it was I accepted the message. Well to make a long story short, I realized rather quickly I was talking to a Bot and didn’t have time to mess with it and closed out the screen, but later it happened again, so I decided to have a little fun…OR DID I? lol…I’m posting the actual conversation below. You’re gonna laugh your ass off!

I’m buying a new computer today. I think. There are so many to choose from. Damn! And should I go lap top or desk top? Another damn! Price? Oh my God. It’s hard to know which price is right for what I’m going to be getting. Went to Best Buy and Staples. At $1,400.00 for something that will be obsolete in a year it should be able to cook and do the laundry! I’m also shopping for a car. My sixteen year old is getting her full license next week. Yep. Get off the road. LOL And I’m shopping for a puppy too. We lost our little Scotty…our mut…our baby over the weekend. We sure do miss him.

I must be different from all other women on the planet. I don’t like to shop. I don’t even pretend to like it. I’d rather have things just materialize out of thin air than to go into any store and deal with rude sales clerks. And more than that…why do these places employ people that know nothing about the product line. No matter who you talk to they always have to go and get someone else to get your answer. I’ve often wondered how far I’d have to go up the chain of command…but usually I just get disgusted with the lack of answers and make a decision without the information I’ve requested. I’m impatient. I’m stubborn. But I’m honest. And to be perfectly honest with you, I’m finished writing now. Till tomorrow…or maybe later tonight if the mood strikes me. May pop back in to tell you about the computer I bought…then again….maybe not.

It’s getting cooler where I live. I love cold weather. Snuggling weather I call it. LOL I’d really like to see some snow this year, but I doubt we’ll get any. I’ve had this fantasy for years now about being snow bound with a stranger. Oh, God. Soooo sexy. And in my fantasy I make it a real blizzard. The kind where everything is paralyzed. The world just stops. No electricity. Only one way to get warm. LOL Alas, I don’t seem to have ever lived out any of my fantasies. I don’t mean I haven’t experimented sexually. I mean a real live honest to goodness fantasy. One with images of your surroundings, complete with dialogue. One that you can replay over and over in your head until you get it just the way you want it. But if I can’t live it, I’ll write about it. Hmmm… writing about my fantasies. They may very well make good short stories to give to all my friends. Not just sit down and think of a plot line, but give you my real honest to goodness fantasies. I’m going to give that some thought.

I’ve encountered a man who is slowly but surely becoming very special to me. Our conversations make me think. Sometimes they make me think too much. Soul searching is not always a good idea. Especially if you find something you don’t like. My problem is this–he’s too good for me. I don’t really deserve his friendship. If he were to discover this website he’d know in a second I was talking about him, but this website is not exactly his cup of tea.

I think our connection is more spiritual than physical. Hell, I know it is. At least for him. He makes me laugh, but more importantly, he makes me cry. There we go with that soul searching again. And my soul is better left untouched.

His words are dark and arousing, tempting to say the least. Not at all sexual. I should leave him alone and let him be. He’s not the kind of man you play games with. He’s real. He’s honest. Far removed from anything I could ever dish out. Too smart. Maybe too smart for his own good. It’s his intellect that pains him after all. Sometimes you shouldn’t think. Sometimes you should just do it. And keep doing it until something else feels better. But he’d never subscribe to such advice. Not him. Everything must have meaning.

There is a Vixen who lives in me. A vamp…a Seductress…a Temptress. Sometimes I feel like I’m in The Garden of Eden holding an apple in my hand. “Take a bite. It won’t hurt a bit.” When in truth, it would change everything. A man can lose his soul to a woman, but a woman simply moves on.

“I see you’re a man with ideals. I guess I’d better be going while you’ve still got them.” Mae West…the original Eve

I received some spam in my email today. The spam filter is on so I don’t know why. I started to just delete, but the subject line intrigued me. “YOU TOO CAN HAVE A BIG DICK!” I stared at that subject line for a few moments and thought. “WTF?” Is this just one more guy coming on to me and offering himself or an ad? Couldn’t help myself. I clicked on it. And right there staring me in the face were several before and after picks of the male species in all their glory! Dicks hanging like bananas from a tree. (Bananas do come from a tree don’t they?) Anyway, I looked my fill and then started to read.

It was an ad for a male enhancer product. The ad claimed that over 700,000 men had tried it to date and all were satisfied. They even offered a money back guarantee! Whoa! I know if I were a man I would be opening my wallet up right now and grabbing that credit card. Like hell! Do men really believe all that crap? Do men really believe that just by taking a couple of pills a day that are supposedly chocked full of minerals and extracts–all natural–that their dicks are going to increase in size by one to four inches. Yes, I said, “one to four inches”. And this ad was thorough too. This wonder drug works with circumcised and uncircumcised dicks. And all it takes is four months of your time, although they recommend six months, and just $299.95.

Their slogan you might ask?

“Be A Sexual Powerhouse In Just a Few Months!”

The ad even posted “real honest to goodness” testimony from satisfied customers.

Bill, from Georgia commented “now I have the confidence to pursue the kind of woman I’ve always dreamed of.”

WTF does that mean? Well it’s quite obvious isn’t it? Evidently some of us women walk around with a great big message tattooed on our forehead that reads:

“I like big dicks.”

Guess Ol’ Bill is having the time of his life!

Basically I guess what I’m trying to say here is, “Men. Don’t fall for this crap. Save your money. If you think it’s not big enough, just up the amp on the tongue!”

…and by the way,

in the event you disregard my advice and do order one of these big dick making drugs, their ad also says they ship them to you discreetly. Wouldn’t want anyone to know what you’re up to now would we?

…and if you are one of those 700,000 men who have tried this product (and there are so many more of these products out there!),

I’d really like to hear about the results of your particular experience. So give me a post here or email me at tessmackall@hotmail.com

Body Language. What a perfectly wonderful term. It’s that body language that tells us when someone is interested isn’t it? Yes, the eyes do it as well…but that lean in and touch his arm with our breasts thing we gals always do should be the biggest clue of all. And how about when we place the palm of our hand flat against their chest? When exactly do they get the message? How much time do they waste before they cut to the chase and get down with it? Some men are slower than others to respond. Not quite as sure of themselves, of course. And there is a lot to be said for taking it slow. Those boys who are just a bit shy have a slow hand. And I do love a man with a slow hand. LOL Soft and easy. Touching every place. Making it last. But those boys with their “cocksure” selves are pretty fine too. Fast hand, lots of fire and energy. Hot, Hard and ohhh so sure! Damn but it’s hard to choose. Which do you prefer, Ladies. Soft, slow and easy or Hot, fast and sure? And guys, which one are you? Do you have a slow hand or a fast hand? Or do you switch off and plan your moves? Oh, God how I love to talk about sex! Makes me hot. Water pleeeaasssseeee!

Last week I was in writing deadline hell and didn’t have the time to write a proper blog (if there is such a thing as a proper blog). So instead I asked you to message me your ideas about sexy items I could offer as a prize in a contest to celebrate the release of my book The Emerald Lady. Ladies want vibrators and men want chocolate. Actually I think women want vibrators cause men aren’t doing their job correctly and men think chocolate is going to fix it. A couple of men even suggested it be strategically placed in order to get “the job” done. Oh, Boys, it’s so sad. I don’t know about the rest of you ladies, but I don’t need a damned thing smeared or drizzled on my body. Just flesh to flesh. And what’s up with the honey? That stuff is stickier than chocolate. And whose gonna wash the sheets? I seriously doubt he would. So men save the sticky stuff, add a whole lot of tongue to your repertoire and take your time. As far as the sexy prize is concerned, I’m just gonna browse the local adult book store in this sleepy little hamlet (apparently not so sleepy, we have the toy store. lol) where I live and see what mischief I can find and what mayhem I ran wreak. I would love to hear your comments ladies on all the sticky stuff. Give me your words! In the meantime, go check out the cover for The Emerald Lady on my MySpace page and if you are so inclined (hint hint), check out my website and click on books/excerpts and read a snippet of a sexy scene. If any of you write erotic poetry, send it to me if you like and if I really like it, I will post it on my erotic poetry page and give you author credit. Presently I have three of mine posted. Give them a read to get an idea as to what I’m looking for. Have a great week! And don’t forget to message me and post your comments.
Wishing you Hot Sultry Southern Nights!

Erotic Fiction That Sizzles!

BLOG ADENDUM: TONGUE PLEEAASSEEE!!!!

I can’t resist adding this. LOL. My friend *Shallow T* just gave me a late entry into the Sexy Gift Ideas. He suggests an inflatable pool with a family size bottle of baby oil! I have to give the man credit. He was concerned about the sheets. lol. And he even made mention of the oil getting into the mattress. Hells bells, ladies. The man likes to play and keep the clean up to a minimum. Now ya’ gotta love that!!!! Kudos to you *T*. And baby oil isn’t sticky. Think I can handle that! Hmmm, made no mention of tongue though, then again I only asked for sexy gift ideas. Hey *T*, How the hell am I gonna ship that to the winner of my contest. You gonna fly it there for me? LOL.
