Shoes, shoes, shoes ...

Less than a year ago I only had 2 pairs of nice shoes. Well, ok shoes. I had a slightly worn pair of pumps that I bought at a thrift store. And I hade a pair of nice sandals. Both with a low heel.

In addition to that I had 2 pairs of rather nice boots that I got from my mom. Not because she bought them especially for me. But because she bought them without checking that they actually fit. When they didn't ... she gave them to me.

And it didn't bother me. I just couldn't care less that I didn't have a lot of shoes. The only times it DID bother me was those few times that I went out with friends, and had absolutely nothing to put on my feet other than those two pairs of boots.

I thought having lots of shoes was silly and a waste of money.
Shopping for shoes was torture! And a waste of time ...

Besides. Noone really notice what kind of shoes you wear anyways right?

WRONG

My new friend ...

I've got a new friend, I'm going to call him Thumper and he'll be living in my nightstand drawer ... 

A couple of weeks ago, I received my toy from Eden Fantasys. I had gotten a list of sex toys to choose 2-3 of favourites from, and was receiving a toy I've been very curious about. One of those infamous rabbit vibrators! I'd seen them on pictures, I'd heard my girlfriends brag about them, I'd even heard about them in movies and tv-series! And now I was finally going to try one out myself.

The toy I received was called "White heat double delights medium".  There was a larger version, but I chose the medium one since I prefer medium sized toys.

When I went to the post office to collect my package I immediately noticed the size of the box. It was small! The box was anonymous so it didn't neccesarily have to be from Eden Fantasys. However I couldn't recall ordering anything online, so it had to be my rabbit.

As soon as I got in the car I ripped the package open. It hardly weighed anything, and at first it seemed that it only contained grey paper. Underneath the paper though, there was an even smaller box. It contained the famous rabbit, which was small enough to fit in the palm of my hand.

I just HAVE to learn to read through the description of things like this properly! Other things I hadn't noticed was the fact that it's waterproof, and a g-spot stimulator.

Later that that night, after the kids went to sleep, I got the opportunity to test it out. I was surprised over how soft it is. It looks kinda hard on the pictures, but it's soft and smooth.

I had gotten permission from M earlier in the day to test it out and so I did. I didn't expect much, after all ... it's small! Turns out that good things DO come in small packages sometimes.

It felt great! The vibrating bits(bullets?) in both of the heads, plus the "edge" that swirls around the rabbit, really do the trick. Also the fact that it has two heads made me realize why some of my girlfriends swear that the rabbit is the only way to go.

This little toy is the first toy ever that has gotten to live in my nightstand drawer. Also, the small size plus the fact that it's relatively quiet makes it the ideal companion for travel

Toys toys toys ...

I must admit, toys have been a pretty scary thing for me. I've tried several toys over the years, and they've all HURT! So I've never really understood what all the fuzz with toys was about.

Last fall however, a friend suggested that maybe I was allergic to latex? For some idiotic reason, the thought had never occured to me!
I bought some latexfree condoms, and put one of them on one of my dildo's. I was certain that it would still hurt, but it didn't. It actually felt quite good!

However, using a 5$ condom (Yeah, they're that expensive in Norway!) every time I wanted to enjoy myself a bit, just hasn't been an option. So I've been looking into latex free toys.

It's confusing though! Turns out that a silicone toy doesn't neccesarily have to be latex free! If only as little as 10% of the toy consists of silicone, the toy can be labeled as a silicone toy. Which means that it can still contain 90% latex.

So, how do I find out that a toy is latexfree? When most online stores only list them as "Silicone"? Well, you have to find one that actually differs between "Silicone" and "Latex Free"

It doesn't help that I get completely lost every time I wander into an "adult toy store". When I was young (i.e. "when the dinousaurs roamed the earth" *giggles*) there wasn't much of a selection. We had dildo's of varying sizes and colours, and some of them vibrated. That's it!

Now there's dildo's, vibrators, bullets, eggs, rabbits, double dildo's, lots of stuff for anal play ... and the list just continues.

So, in the middle of my rather confused exploration of adult toy stores, I got an e-mail from Eden Fantasys. Would I be interested in testing out some of their products?
At first I was sceptical. Surely this had to be some kind of scam? However, their website looked great, so they were obviously a real buisness. So I answered their e-mail, and agreed to join their program.
After mailing a bit back and forth for a couple of days I received a list over toys I could choose from. And guess what! Since I'd told them about my latex allergy, the good people on Eden Fantasys had sorted out all the toys I couldn't use! So there were only latex free toys to choose from.

A couple of weeks after I answered that e-mail my first toy arrived in the mail. Want to know what it was? Stay tuned, you will find out tomorrow
