Sensuality

Yes, it's been a while...my bad!

One of my absolute favourite things to do with Alex is to sleep with her.

And yes, I mean SLEEP.

There have been several times over the past several weeks, I have stayed at her place or she at mine for the evening. And while, yes, the [insert euphamism] is always wonderful, having her head in the crook of my shoulder while we both drift off to sleep is amazingly sensual. When one of us rolls over or changes position, the other compensates and moves to adjust so that we're still snuggling and comfortable.

And waking up next to her is just a joy.

Of course, recently, it's been wake up with the alarm at 7:15 and then jump in the shower and go to work. Not nearly as pleasurable as, say, waking up without the alarm at 9:00 and then lazily talking about what we should do with our day for the next hour or so. But really, either way is wonderful...Alex next to me being the first thing I see in the morning...

This assumes that Galahad or Gwenevyre (Alex's dogs) don't decide that I taste like bacon and begin to lick my foot to wake me up. ;)

I have proposed that one of these days when we both have time off, we should stay up late watching movies and then sleep very late, wake up, order Chinese and eat it in bed.

The sensuality of it all is something I hope I never take for granted.
