OH HAI INTERNETZ. I’m just here, doing my thing. Not much else you need to know. Y’all keep being terrific.
(updated 04.05.12)
I’m all those things below. But more than anything, I’m all right. However I am today, however I’ll be tomorrow – I’m all right.
(updated 10.12.11)
I’m still Anisa. Still married (but more shakily than before). Still a mother of two (unless you count dead babies, then the number goes up). I still work (but I’m increasingly less-satisfied with it every day). I still want sex a lot. We probably fuck more than the average couple married over 10 years with 2 kids.
Due to lots of things adding up, I’m infinitely more bitter, depressed, and probably far less sexy than I used to be (if I ever really was sexy). Bear with me, I’m working on it. This guy is my friend, and you should get to know him, too.
Version 1:
I am Anisa, a wife of nearly ten years and a mother of two. I work outside the home. In recent months our marriage went through a shift… when once I could care less about sex and my husband was constantly angry and frustrated, I now want sex more than he does. Marriage might seem to kill off the sex drive, but in our case it merely put it on hold for a while. Sex is better now that it’s ever been. Here is where I explore all of this and how we enjoy our new and deeper intimacy.
I’m sure you have all kinds of folks giving you feedback, etc. And I’m sure some random comment from afar isn’t that important, but I’m compelled to let you know I appreciate your blog. It helps me see things perhaps from my better half’s perspective. You’re clearly something special, regardless of how you feel about yourself. And that’s why I’m writing – no matter what, it doesn’t matter what others think. Do what’s right for YOU. And then your family.
I swear, sometimes I see my wife in your comments. A lot. Keep up the wonderful perspective (please).
Wow. Just… wow. Thanks, Joel. What you have to say is lovely, and truly, deeply appreciated. Look forward to having you along.
Sure missing the updates. Hope all is well…
I have nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award. Check out my site to get more info

I appreciate your honesty here. We have been married for 10 years and I think the sex drive has increased this past year. There is something about bringing the beauty of intimacy into the open that is stimulating and sexy. I use my blog as a way to give praise to my partner and almost to worship in a sense. Good work. I look forward to reading your posts

Dear Darling or Bro: Because you have been generous enough to expose some raw, tender, or embarrassing side of your physical, intellectual, or aesthetic being, I have nominated you for the coveted TMI Blogger Award. Look here ( http://theoblack.wordpress.com/2012/03/31/i-got-your-tmi-right-here/ ) for the applicable rules. (Excuse the form-letter, but I have to post a bunch of these.)
TMI Award headed your way, Lady A! I was hit with it, and you’re now in my sights! xoxoxo
Whew, it’s so reassuring to read about other ‘real’ people out there not too dissimilar to myself… I look forward to exploring your blog more, but as another mother-of-two living boys (four if you count those not with us), married 8 years but together for many more, and really starting to explore more sexually now – no more bloody contraceptive pill suppressing my sex drive, and the wonderful trust built between us over the years opening up new doors. I also know those rough times… damn life is never all sweet… but hoping you’re doing more than just all right soon (though I know sometimes that’s more than enough). Hugs x
Nominated you for One Lovely Blog award. Hope to see you writing again soon!!
