All I Want For Christmas

“All I Want For Christmas Is You”
I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas
Is you
I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don’t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won’t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas Day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby
Oh I won’t ask for much this Christmas
I won’t even wish for snow
And I’m just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won’t make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won’t even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
‘Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You Baby
Oh all the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children’s
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won’t you bring me the one I really need?
Won’t you please bring my baby to me?
Oh I don’t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I’m asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby

First Blogiversary!

Same Sassy Girl is passing a major milestone today – one year of blogging.  Wow!  How can this integral part of my life be only one year old?!

I had no idea when I started this blog experiment I’d reveal all this strange and wonderful stuff.  Or that I’d still be doing it a year later.  I look at every post and think… “can I do this?”  I almost stopped in February during the Big Blog Disappearances, and again recently when playing with a military man became a hot spot to be.  I am half-excited and half-terrified every time I hit “Publish,” but telling my story seems worth it – remembering, recording, trying to make sense of it and sharing it.  I work so hard to entertain Philip and keep the connection open.  Now I want to do the same with you!

I am astonished I have kept the blog a secret. It is strange not to share what I consider a major accomplishment with my real life friends and family, and to share so many feelings with you and none of the usual facts!   There are many of you I trust, but it’s simpler to stay anonymous.

This blog has led me to so many other fabulous blogs!  I’ve learned so much about life, love, great sex, and myself.  I’ve connected with so many wonderful bloggers and other readers.  Thirty-three members.  Over 30,000 hits.  Over 550 posts.  Even a Liebster award!  Whee!

I’m still writing!  Wow!!  And you are still here reading!  Wow!!!  Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

As the handsome and talented Ryan Beaumont of “The Ashley Madison Adventures of a Regular Guy Gone Bad” put it so beautifully in his two-year blogiversary post today, I’d better get back out there and live my life so I have more to write about!

Hugs with groping!

Phil: Well good morning to you too. Great football yesterday. Have visiting bigwigs today, always fun. I skipped the Mark Harmon thing. Chose to use the time to hang Christmas lights. The guys tell me he and Gary Sineese were very friendly, ate with them, posed for pictures, the recruits had a blast. Christmas party was great, bigwigs party was extraordinary. Packed house full of local mayors, who’s-who of the military here, very nice affair, the band concert was spectacular and then I got to watch the taped football game. I avoided my phone so I had no idea about the game which made it great fun. 

Got my coffee, did my morning exercises and ready to go for the week. The command Christmas party is Friday and then the Army/Navy game party on Saturday, Christmas Cantata on Sunday. 

Got a family issue.  Gotta do something.  Ah well. Enjoy the day and have a fabulous week!
8:32 am
Good morning! Another oddly warm day in the 50s. Off to work, then the first gathering for a new project.  I’m in charge of snacks and getting them socializing, as about half are new. Have fun w/ the visitors!
8:42 am
What’s up w/ the family?  I’ll pray for a better path soon. Be careful… Tough to balance. If I can help you or them, say so.
1:49 pm
Phil: It is tough.  Hopefully we will figure things out.
2:02 pm
Should have known you’d have a good plan. You are a good man… reminds me of my dad!

2:03 pm
Phil: I try. ðŸ™‚
3:39 pm
Two things about reading the blogs…
1) They make me want you more. Didn’t think that was even possible! But the yearning thing is FIERCE today. I have all these new ideas I want to try… with you. And your 1000 miles away. ARRGH!
2) The food analogy – I was starving when you found me. You showed me lobster and steak and lots of amazing meals. I was so satisfied! And now I find out there are ways to make meals even better. Different spices, new combinations – get my drift? I want to try them all…w/ you. Find out what your tastes are.. and…oh, man. Excuse me. I have to go to my bunk!
12:12 am
Oh, what a fun evening! The project meeting was amazing. Such talent in the room! And they really got into it. I enjoyed it. Hope you had a nice evening.



Sassy Answers: What is Tumblr?

Hiya, Readers!

It’s time to take a break from Phillip and SassyLand for another strange and wonderful edition of Sassy Answers, where I answer a question from one of you!

Q.  What is Tumblr? 

A.  You never heard of Tumblr?!  Sassy talks to people all along the information superhighway and I am astonished at people who don’t know about Tumblr.  I should not be shocked because I didn’t see one until March, 2011 and I still can’t really explain it to you, but I am going to try!

If you want facts and figures, wander over to wikipedia for some huge numbers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumblr

There are juicy ones such as:

As of August 20, 2012, Tumblr has over 69.4 million blogs and over 29.8 billion total posts. 
As of September 2011, the website receives more than 13 billion views per month. 
As of July 2010, the site receives 25,000 new users each day and 
as of July 2012, 71.6 million posts are created on the site each day. 
An analysis by AddThis of shares through their service in 2011 noted that Tumblr sharing had increased by 1299.5%.

So… usually it’s a bunch of photos.  A photo blog.  Someone picks a topic and looks around the internet for photos of it and posts them.   People re-blog them to their tumblr.  Or they “follow” a tumblr, so whatever new is posted shows up for them to see.

You can google tumblr _____ and find photos of whatever it is!  I tried Edsel and got the link to an Edsel tumblr with lots of old cars.  Then I tried donuts and got….you guessed it… photos of that round breakfast treat!  It’s like Rule 34 of the internet – if you can think of it, there is already a tumblr out there for it.  If you go to https://www.tumblr.com/ it will show you a sample.

This extends into the sexy world as well… whatever you like, whatever your kink, there’s a tumblr with a zillion photos of it.  Many bloggers who share their thoughts in words through blogger also share their favorite photos through tumblr.  Red heads?  (there are seven of them, not counting “gingers”) Being naked in public? (many many)  Cats in the middle of your porn photo?  It’s all out there.

In addition, each photo tells you where it came from, so if you want to see more with a similar theme, click over to that tumblr.  Warning – this leads to hours of clicking from here to there then on to that and way past midnight!

Finally, here are three of my sexy favorites tumblrs to get you started.

Bad Advice, Questionable Tactics” is one man’s eclectic perspective on red heads, beautiful clits, sexy people being nice to each other, dom/subs, and his neighborhood
http://advizortoall.tumblr.com/

Hot pics from Dick-n-Jane” is a married couple’s photos of themselves and other couples or gorgeous singles being very nice to each other, and they have incredible taste in tasteful, arty, erotic images.

And finally the tumblr that got me started down the road to sexy blogging
Sex is not the enemy” which shows real people of all shapes, sizes, colors, and preferences having fun naked!  It links to many tumblrs, so it’s a great place to go to see an amazing sample of what’s out there.

Did you know about them before?  Do you have a favorite or just found a fun one?  Please leave the url in a comment?   Thanks!

Enjoy!

Phil: Yeah that Mark Harmon. Just finished my workout, now for some house cleaning, whip up some food and then off to the bigwig’s for his Holiday open house and to hear the band play their Christmas concert and then football. Gotta tape the games and then have friends coming over to eat and watch. Enjoy your day! 
11:27pm
I have the worst urge to call you!  I am filled with questions about all your fun.  Say more about Mark Harmon?  Was it like he spoke at a big dinner or something smaller?  Did you get to actually talk to him?  What was your impression?  You are so lucky!  How was the football? 
I had a very productive Saturday – met project people, then gas and groceries, cooked a chicken with wild rice stuffing, spinach soufflé, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes and gravy!  The evening went to figuring out my new computer and cleaning up the little messes that the transfer over from the dead one made.
12:15am
Today I got a lot of chores done around here and in between?  Well, I got lost in sex blogs. Can’t believe how many there are! Learning a lot.  But Philip? None of them are as hot as you.  I mean it.  They give me ideas that could keep things interesting, but what you write and my memories are much hotter.  I don’t understand the chemistry we have, but the more I read the more I know how rare it is…you are a very special man! 

Coffee shop

Good morning!  Clear and COLD!  35 brrr!  Getting to know my new computer…thank goodness my employer springs for these things. 
10:35am
Phil: Kids Christmas party, dinner with Mark Harmon, then party with friends!  At the gym sweating now. Have a great day ðŸ™‚
10:36am
Wait.. Mark Harmon?  NCIS Mark Harmon?

I’m off to a coffee shop to meet my gal pal and talk with project people!
