Peas Please

Sometimes its just worth the pain.  Being up all night with crying children just sucks.  Whether they are sick or teething or just suffering from separation, no sleep does not make Momma happy.  I have had my share of sleepless nights...everytime I am about to fall asleep I hear the call.  A few times I tried to pretend that the cries would silence themselves and go away and let me sleep in peace.  But thats just the delusional thinking of a desperate woman right there.  Those nights and the days that follow are miserable. 

However, there are most certainly exceptions.  My friends and I have learned that bliss can follow a sleepless night too.  Its totally worth it when you have been up all night having sex.  Skinned knees aka rugburn, bruises on backs from a gear shift being in the way, sore muscles from a vigorous session, and of course oversexing of the nether regions that make walking or sitting or just about anything a bit ouchy.  Thats when I reach for my bag of frozen peas.  They make a perfect ice pack for my lady bits.  I dont actually plan on eating the peas when I buy them, its just for emergencies.

The debriefing of the nights shananigans are also a must because the delirium produced by such an evening results in many forms of stupid, that really must be capitalized on.  An example of this is as follows.  After a yummy, nourishing and chatty brunch with a girlfriend, I offer to take her home.  Of course there was a cute boy from the night before being talked about all during brunch.  So I am driving through Old Town and there is like a stop sign at almost every corner.  I realize that I have to stop and do the thing where you put your arm out in front of the passenger since you are stopping pretty quick.  I try to verbalize what is going on and this is what comes out of my mouth...."wow...good thing I used my....stopping powers" and the second its out of my mouth we start to die laughing.  I mean really, who forgets the word "brakes"?  Well a sleep deprived woman who has been up all night having sex, thats who.  I actually had to pull over we were laughing so hard.  Been laughing about that for days. 

Yes, it hurts so good and we love it.  Put that big stupid grin on my face.  Keep us up all night and as long as there are orgasms involved with the no sleeping, bring it on.  And pass the peas please.
