I was forcibly reminded of how very dependent I have become upon free Google services this week.
On one Blogger-focused blog, I read that Google is replacing the Google Friend Connect service (which lets a user follow a specific blog) with Google+ Circles, which means a user follows everything Google-related by another user. As the post notes, a follower might only be interested in the one blog... and not everything else. So, that sucks.
Then, on March 13, I signed into Google Reader (as I do every day) and received the warning that the service would be gone come July. That also sucks. In addition to the blogs that I follow via GFC, I subscribe to many other sites' feeds... and use Google Reader for all of them. Even the third-party applications that I use to read feeds depend upon Google Reader.
So, if you wonder why I stopped loving you via GFC, it is not a lack of love. I just moved my feed subscriptions from GFC/Reader to a third-party application... that I hope does not also disappear soon.

Hiatus Through April
Hi all!
Regular readers may have noticed that Week Bi Week has not been updating weekly lately. My focus has just been elsewhere recently.
So, I might as well take a planned and announced hiatus, rather than continue with my current unplanned one that leaves you dangling. Please check back in April, when I expect to be happy to narrate sexy goodness or blather on relationships again.
I look forward to seeing you again in six weeks! Thanks!

Kiss Me While I Cum
With BG below me, I rode his mouth while I sucked his cock. His mouth felt so good to my cunt and I enjoyed licking and stroking his shaft. SwingBot leaned over and joined me; we shared BG's cocks between our mouths.
SwingBot then got himself a toy and lube. As he prepared himself for his intended target, my excitement for things to come made me redouble my efforts on BG's cock. Not only did I want everything to go smoothly, but the anticipation increased my already high level of horniness. SwingBot handed me the condom and lube, which I applied to BG's erection with enthusiasm.
SwingBot then straddled BG's hips and carefully lowered himself down. BG responded to the mounting, thrusting best he could in his pinned position while also continuing his oral attentions to me. I shifted my torso around indecisively as I realized that I was not short enough to stay in place on BG's face and suck SwingBot's cock while he rode BG's. I decided to keep getting cunnilingus while nibbling and licking at SwingBot's sides.
I stroked SwingBot's cock while he fucked his ass with BG's. SwingBot warned us that he would not last long, and I offered encouraging tugs into my rhythm. With his ass and cock both stimulated, he came hard into my hands.
After a clean-up, BG moved to a different position on the bed and I moved onto him. We replaced the condom with a new one and I replaced SwingBot in straddling BG. Spent, SwingBot opted to leave the room as we finished. Before he left, though, he and I kissed. SwingBot kissing me deeply while BG fucked me hard -- and while the image of SwingBot riding BG to his own climax fresh in my head -- was unbelievably, indescribably, and unforgettably hot.

Clear Communication
While preparing a dog dinner Saturday night, I asked SwingBot, "What do non-monogamy and owning dogs have in common?"
Without hesitation, he replied, "You run into a lot of bitches."
After a zinger like that, my serious thoughts felt like a real letdown.
However, to be serious, I have been thinking a lot about communication lately. Good communication really is key in relationships.
In non-monogamy, whether through some form of polyamory, swinging, or a hybrid, addressing each partner's wants, needs, and expectations is crucial for the health of the relationships. Each partner needs to be able to say, "I feel this," and, "I need that." While not everyone is going to have every want or need fulfilled every time -- which would be impossible -- the channels of communication must be open.
Dogs cannot speak Human and humans cannot speak Dog. Even the best dog trainers still make educated guesses about what dogs say. History, research, and observation can give useful insights, but people still ultimately must guess. Some canine requests are very obvious; the dog scratching at the door and whining probably wants to go outside. Some may be less obvious, particularly to the layperson, like the dog who wags his tail while in a stressful situation; not all wagging tails indicate joy.
Likewise, a human cannot explain complicated concepts, like moving or that rough play is okay with this person and not with that person. Instead, to clearly communicate human wants to a dog, the human must determine each step required to elicit a desired behavior. A human cannot tell a dog, "I want you to put your toys away." Instead, the human must train the dog a simple command (or multiple simple commands) to go to some particular toy, get that toy, and put it in a designated spot... and then repeat that same instruction for each dog toy. With extremely advanced training (that the average dog owner is highly unlikely to bother doing), a dog might eventually be able to learn one command or one series of commands to perform an entire toy clean up... but that takes extremely advanced training on the human's part, and is all based on small, individual steps.
The need to communicate everything in non-monogamy and to break down each desired act into simple and clear instruction for dogs really make good communication training for all relationships... with pets, romantic partners, sex partners, BDSM partners, friends, coworkers, clients, customers...
Even in traditional relationships that follow societal norms, it is unfair to assume that the others involved can read one's mind or just follow societal guidelines. After all, if we are all unique individuals, then our thoughts, desires, and expectations ought to vary, too. Instead, we need to consider what we want, what simple steps are required to get there, and convey those desires and the action plan.
One of my desires is that I quit posting such long and "thoughtful" discussions and opt for more fun posts instead. I just need to figure out the simple steps required to get there. Any suggestions?

Sinnflut Reality Replacement
Regrettably, my Sinnflut Reality (by Fun Factory) really should be replaced. It still charges and provides different vibration levels and styles... when I can switch through them. I can still turn on the vibrator, but switching to the next level usually turns it off, and has for well over a year now. Managing to successfully bring the vibrator to the desired setting, rather than switch it off, is random and requires many tries. Fighting with a vibrator does not really encourage a sexy mood for masturbation, and I do not even bother including it for partner play anymore.
Since Fun Factory long ago retired the Sinnflut Reality, I played with our other vibrators to see whether one is a suitable replacement. I used to use the Sinnflut Reality alone, thrusting it in and out of my cunt. However, within the last year or two, I finally have discovered the joy of clitoral orgasms. I used to find direct stimulation to the clitoris painful, but now adore it. My current standard method of masturbating is to insert one vaginal toy (vibrator or dildo), insert one anal dildo, and use the Sinnflut Reality on my clitoris. After I reach the desired orgasm, I might remove the two inserted toys and then fuck my cunt a little with the Sinnflut Reality. So, while I need a new clit vibrator, I would prefer for it to also be phallic and appropriately sized.
Still, I reviewed all our vibrators, whatever their size or shape.
We have another Fun Factory vibrator; its name escapes me, but its line is also retired (not surprising; both of these are nine or ten years old), and this one is a battery charged one. The Sinnflut Reality is rechargeable and more powerful than this other, which takes two AA batteries. I already know that this toy just does not have the power to stimulate me the way I want. It is a nice insertable vibrator and worth keeping in that regard, but is no replacement for my Sinnflut Reality.
Our most recent addition to our extensive toy collection is our first Lelo, the Ina 2, a G-Spot and clit vibrator. SwingBot and I played with this toy after we got it and I liked its power. We had some difficulty getting the clit nub to fit comfortably; it kept pressing hard. I assume additional use and adjustment can get the toy to fit my body properly. It did a great job giving me a G-Spot orgasm... but that is only a warm-up orgasm for me, a "tease" orgasm. I have always preferred depth and find the A-Spot orgasm the most fulfilling. For me, this is a good toy for partner play, as a warm-up for vaginal intercourse. I could not fuck myself with this toy, so that option is out. However, applying the larger, insertable portion to my clit while another toy was in my cunt worked okay. So, that might be good enough.
The We-Vibe II is a small vibrator that is partially inserted during intercourse. The vibrator presses against the woman's clit and her G-Spot both, and against the man's penis. SwingBot and I found it uncomfortable with his girth. It worked better with BG, but overall seemed more like a novelty toy than anything else. When I tried it as a possible clit vibrator for masturbating, I wound up mostly rubbing it against my clit and finally tossing it aside and fighting with the Sinnflut Reality until it worked and took care of my needs. So, the We-Vibe II clearly will not work.
I was somewhat surprised to discover that, with all the dildos and bondage gear we have, we have so few vibrators. We have two or three others, but I know that those are not even close to doing the job. Nothing I have is a satisfactory replacement for the Sinnflut Reality.
Do you have a recommendation for a good vibrating dildo to replace my old favorite?
