I have to admit, this was kinda funny.

I feel a little bad for snickering, but I remind myself that (1) it was Cranky's very own idea* to go into Come As You Are and (2) at least I didn't compound her embarrassment by asking for info on my own behalf, partly because (3) she had blenched a few days previously when I enthusiastically suggested that I might.

Really, though, it's kind of pitiful that I'm 31 and single and don't own one sex toy of any variety.

*Selective memory strikes. Cranky reminds me that we passed it and I said "Hey, didn't you want to go in there?" and gently hustled her inside ("Aw, c'mon!") when she said "NO NO NO I CHANGED MY MIND ACK SEX TOYS NOOO!" But what are friends for if not to push your boundaries occasionally?

If I was free at all this weekend, I would help you remedy that in a jiffy... I am after all the go-to girl for sex toys.

that's what I was thinking! do you have a suggested starter kit?

I'll see what I can put together for you... gimme a few.

Well... let's see.

It all depends on what you are looking for. Just a vibe? Then maybe something like this is what you are looking for.

If it's a dual fun type thing, vibe/dildo.. maybe something like this minus the freaky samurai guy inside. Or maybe something like this... which is kinda like the one that I have (lots of fun that Betty).

If you are looking for a simple dildo, you have more choices that I could even give you. Check out Toys in Babeland or Good Vibrations. They both have info on all sorts of fun stuff.

Thank you so much! I think I'll wait until I'm not at work to check out the links... I'm skirting the fringe of the appropriate use policy as it is. ;)

Hehehe, tell that to the boss who walked in to see a giant dildo on my screen ;D

No. Comment.

OK, that made me giggle as well. Poor Cranky. :)

I -so- do not have anything to say right now.

:D Sorry to hear that. I probably should've stuck a warning on this post -- it's not what people have come to expect of me...

No, don't get me wrong -- I don't mind at all. My mind is just completely frozen over with totally unsuitable-for-public-viewing, ungentlemanly ideas. ;-)

And, yeah, there was a small shock factor, but life is fun like that.

Don't feel bad. You see, the way it works is that there is a certain number of sex toys that each family should own. In your case, your dear cousin Mike has more than done his part to meet this measure by filled up an entire bag with such paraphernalia, thus rendering YOU not responsible for meeting the familial sex toy quota. Now, if you want to contribute to the total you are more than welcome to, but it is not a problem that you have not done so until now.

aaaaaaa!

there are things I'm not sure I wanted to know about Mike's sex life... I remember when he was born!

but aside from that, I like this explanation.

Heh, well then I guess it's a good thing that I didn't describe in detail the time that he procured said bag and proceeded to show me a bunch of restraints and then slowly removed a very long dildo-type-thing out of it (I believe the main motivation being to make me blush).. ;P


That was mean spirited. I apologize. I don't want to scar you for life, or anything..

Tooo Laaaaate. *sob* *mental steel wool* Are you around on the weekend at all to make it up to me?

Also, I apologize on behalf of my little cousin. Clearly I didn't bring him up right.

Of COURSE I'm going to see you while you're here! I mean, I haven't seen you since February and that just isn't right.

What's your schedule like? I have a supper-time party on Saturday and that's all I have planned as of now. When are you free? And what prompted this trip?

Unrelated to sex toys, I'm afraid

Hello there... I saw a comment of yours on [livejournal.com profile] misia's recent post, and my eye caught on the word "Toronto". And then I sneaked a peek at your user info and saw that not only do we share some friends (do you know [livejournal.com profile] ipanicked in person? 'cause that would just be freaky...), but also a fair number of interests. So, if you don't object, I'd like to add you to my FL. I'm always looking to meet new and interesting people in this city :)

Hi and welcome! I'm always happy to meet new people! I don't know [livejournal.com profile] ipanicked in person, but we've been quiet members of each others' Friends list for quite a while now.

Heh. Okay, I'm slightly less freaked now ;) I've been friends with him for, erm, eight years or something now. He sang at my wedding. I was sitting here wondering if I might actually have met you at some point and just not known it.

How long have you been in Toronto? It's been a year and a half since [livejournal.com profile] forthright and I moved from Montreal, which is still hard to believe.

I grew up in Toronto (mostly) and most of my family lives here, but I went to McGill and then spent 6 years working in Montreal. I've been back since August (the time, it does fly!).

re [livejournal.com profile] ipanicked: that WOULD have been weird. I do know [livejournal.com profile] emjayne in person (although we met through LJ).

Ah, I went to McGill for my undergrad, then hung around and got an MA at Concordia, and then hung around and worked a bit more, until [livejournal.com profile] forthright finished up his PhD and we could finally move. I loved many things about the city, but I find that I like Toronto much more - though that's probably largely a side-effect of having a nicer apartment in a nicer neighbourhood with better jobs for both of us here. If I could just import my friends from Montreal, it'd be perfect :)

I only encountered [livejournal.com profile] emjayne on LJ after I moved away from Montreal, so I've never had the chance to meet her, unfortunately.
