I would always choose Netflix over the club. And I like research. Laura and Luna speak to me on a deep level.
Looking at Eye Spy at work and managed to stop myself right before I yelled “where the f*** is the dildo?!” out loud.
SAME
That idea for a playlist is really, really cool! And i really like that it has “This is Me,” the first Demi song I ever bought on itunes, on it.
Dear Chelsey,
Thank you for this fortnight’s A+ Bee! I enjoyed it thoroughly, but wtf Laura, get your act together.
Love,
Sally
WTF Laura
LAURA AND LUNA
That dildo is sneaky.
I live on a boat named Luna. I feel this is relevant.
@janell Yo fellow boat dweller! ::fistbump::
btw Did you know that Janell is the name of a boat-maker in the UK?
::fistbump:: I had no idea! And I’m even learning how to build/restore boats in the UK right now.
okay, so clearly Laura has to convince Luna that the classified ad is for an erotic third for “that new sex thing.” This yields Liza (a redhead, obvs), who ends up stopping the encounter partway through because they clearly only have eyes for each other/are using her to make each other jealous. Meanwhile, Luna has already been doing some research on ethical non-monogamy because she thinks that is what Laura wants, but Laura tearfully admits that, like Shane, she wants a traditional relationship but can’t seem to stop herself from sabotaging it.
And then I guess they go to real therapy?
Which Tarot-deck was used, it looks beautiful?
Hey @blanche! It’s the Wildwood Tarot, illustrated by Will Worthington. It’s a beauty – it’s all about nature, ancient ritual, human connection to the earth and elements, and follows the ‘wheel of the year’ system of seasons and celebrations.
Sounds like just my kind of deck!
EYE SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYES
I loved the eye spy. Defs support having more of those in future issues!
Yay Whitney and apple picking! I miss my TC Straddlers.
I love the playlist!! And also the tarot reading…I’ve recently wanted to set shit on fire, maybe this explains it?
Also, I can’t find the dildo in the eye-spy and if that isn’t the epitome of my sex life right now, I don’t know what is
