My favourite post from last week is from an sexcellent blog (see what I did there?), which when I first came across (no pun intended), actually thought was just for the ladies of the blogosphere, but have since changed my mind; or maybe have just turned into a pervert. Either way, this hilarious post is a collection of true stories about instances of bad sex.
BadSex Week, Day 5: Bad Sex All Over the Damn Place –
In Bed With Married Women
“‘Working from home’. It’s a great lark and a wonder of the modern age.
But I feel the envelope has not been pushed out far enough.
I want to work for an employer who not only allows me to ‘work from home’ but also – more importantly – allows me to ‘home from work’”
I’m a big fan of WFH (working from home), and I couldn’t help laughing at Steve’s idea of “homing from work.” I would fully support, and even vote for any political party that offers this in their manifesto. The whole idea could change the British workplace forever – well done Steve.
Please drop by this week’s blogs, and if you’ve enjoyed their posts, maybe leave a comment.
“I thought, okay. That's fine. We've been drinking and he's probably nervous. Whatever. I don't want to make him feel bad with one of the cliché comments you make at a time like that. So I got up to use the bathroom and when I sat on the toilet, a sad little bit of something dripped out of me.”
In Bed With Married Woman author Jill Hamilton, describes herself as “an excessively curious writer from Southern California,” and her work has appeared in Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, Mad magazine, Time Out New York, Games, and the Los Angeles Times. I can’t recommend her blog and writings enough, and know that you will love her work so please go and have a look.
Secondhand – Life With Coffee Spoons
“My book did not come from the romanticised version of NY that nestles in my head and periodically whispers to me that I absolutely must visit Manhattan and must, I simply must, rent a loft with curious brick walls.”
The beautiful smell of stationary, old and new, is a subject close to my heart. When I was a teenager I was banned for life from all the stationers in Farnborough, and all the local book shops, for my unsavoury habit of sniffing paper, and books (honestly!). I grew up thinking that people just didn’t understand my addiction, but have recently discovered that there is a plethora of other book sniffers, including Life with Coffee Spoons author; Rachel Handley who tells a lovely tale about a book she ordered from the version of New York, that dwells in her head.

Thanks Dicky, you have now officially become my very favorite (brit translation for you: "favourite") melancholy miserablist.
