I never really knew just how life-saving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation could be. By all means, I shouldn't be feeling nearly as pissy over the course of this vacation as I am. The atmosphere is sublime, the circumstances are almost surreally beautiful in some ways, and I'm about as spoiled and as pampered as I could possibly hope to be. But, in many other ways, I feel as though I'm being seriously left in the lurch. My husband, Darren, has spent the entirety of this week-long getaway talking business on his cell phone.

My new girlfriend is about to unleash a side of myself that's wilder than I've ever before seen. I'm just a little bit late to the party when it comes to my sexuality. Growing up, I was what you might call a closeted lesbian, and it took entering into college to break me out of my shell as far as that was concerned. I suppose I should be considered a fully grown adult now, but my squeamishness when it comes to sexual matters has remained largely intact for some time now.

Lately, I just can't seem to sit still. I squirm constantly in my seat as I wait at the doctor's office, unable to clear my head and feeling constantly as though I'm under scrutiny from those around me. For instance, there is this woman sitting across from me with her girlfriend, staring at me, and instantly my mind begins to reel, fantasizing about the three of us making love, even despite the fact that I've always considered myself as straight as a damn arrow.

My friend, Venus, might just be the most beautiful girl in the world. The two of us have known one another since middle school, and for the longest time I've had an intense crush on her. But here's the thing - she doesn't even know I'm a lesbian. Now the two of us are in college together, sharing a dorm room. Both of us compete on our school's swim team, and I'm tormented by the sight of her perfect body moving so gracefully through the water.

When I first arrived at my mother's reception, I never imagined that I would meet the most attractive man I had ever seen - dark hair, piercing eyes, and a lazy, confident smile.... There was no way I could resist him. I certainly never imagined that I would be having mind blowing sex with him in the art gallery upstairs. I never, ever imagined that my mother would make an announcement on that very same night that she had gotten married to his father. Of course, I was devastated. I could certainly never be sexually involved with my stepbrother....

I'm lying in bed one night, staring up at the ceiling, unable to sleep from anxiety. In a few hours, I'll be starting my new job at a successful company, and I'm concerned that my first day there could either make or break me. Soon, however, I find myself drifting off to sleep, and when I do, I have quite the Freudian nightmare. For whatever reason, I have the strangest dream of becoming intimate with my new boss, Mr. Jones, right in the middle of my new office, and I wake up screaming and soaked with sweat. And other fluids....

My doctor is about to perform a physical unlike any other I've had.... My name is Ashley, and I'm sitting in the waiting room.

The nurse and the doctor both take turns examining me. Very, very thoroughly.... Before long, I'm asked to strip nude for a more careful inspection.

Being a single mother is not an easy task. I thought when I got married that things would stick, and that I'd married the man of my dreams. I didn't expect to be running around on my own with two kids trying to get them to and from day care and practices, and all sorts of different things.
