A Little Midnight Magic: Initiating Passion While You're Asleep
How to make slumber seductive, and wondering if there is anything more sexy and exciting than the blurred lines between dreams and reality?
Dearest reader,
We’re coming to you from our final week at the beach. After two+ weeks here, we’re finally ready to head back to reality and resume our life at home. We’ve cherished our time here, mostly spent at the beach with a hard seltzer in hand while the kids play and the waves crash over the sand.
We’ve met new friends down here that we hope to see again, we’ve hung out with our family that we hope will come back next summer, and we’ve explored new places, namely restaurants we’ve been meaning to try forever. It’s been a full trip, but like most good things, it’s time it came to an end so that the return to reality is as relaxing as possible as we prepare for school to start back next week.
Speaking of our time here, while we’ve been holed up in our little beach shack, and after taking two months off from doing it, I’ve started documenting our Keep & Deletes for the day again over on our blog. For those who aren’t familiar, every evening, I write down our Keep (the best thing about our day) and our Delete (the worst) in an effort to keep a fresh perspective on life and to remember our days are filled with both good and bad things, and acknowledging those while keeping track of them has the power to change the way we see the world. You can check out our Keep & Delete every evening at PJandThomas.com, and I will start linking them at the bottom of these newsletters.
Today’s issue is a further dive into relationships, marriage, and intimacy, something we’ve enjoyed exploring with this newsletter. It won’t be for everyone, so if you aren’t into sex-positive talk or reading about intimacy between people in a committed relationship, you may want to skip this week. We’re all adults, which makes discussing this topic fun and freeing and not at all taboo. It also feels exciting! Just because we’re getting older or are parents, doesn’t mean we don’t still talk about or engage in sex. So why not? If you have any other topic like this you want us to cover, let us know.
Okay! Let’s get to it
Have You Ever Initiated Sex While You’re Asleep?
The house was still and quiet. We had already said good night and gotten into bed to get some much needed sleep, the worries of the day already starting to fade with the darkening sky outside the window. I laid my head on the pillow, closed my eyes, and felt my mind slowly drift off to sleep, effectively ending a rather long day.
Only it wasn’t the end. Something happened that happens quite frequently in our bedroom, something we take turns doing to each other in the middle of the night.
Something woke me up, or rather, someone woke me up. I found myself first wrapping my arm around PJ, who was asleep on his side, and then scooting my body closer and closer to him. Eventually, and without warning, I was fully up against his back, skin to skin and completely spooning him with nothing but our boxer briefs between us. I felt his warm body and I couldn’t help myself. I was immediately aroused.
