Celebrate Cinco De Mayo

Today is Cinco De Mayo which is Mexican Independence Day.  Much like our July 4th in the United States this holiday hold much importance to the people that have Mexican roots.  Since, Mexico is one of our closest neighbors why should we not celebrate with them.  Go all out today and celebrate. Whip up some wonderful Mexican dishes, play some mariachi music, and have fun dancing together.  Together you can make this Cinco De Mayo and every one going forward a fun and festive day even if you don't have any ties to Mexico.

Make Laundry Day, Fun Day

There is nothing more mundane than doing the laundry.  For starters you are never finished as soon as you get it all done you realize that the clothes you are wearing are ready to go into the wash at the end of the day. So unless you are doing your laundry naked you still have laundry to do.  As a couple however you can take this chore and add a little zest to it.  Working together you can get it done and put away faster and enjoy doing with these simple little additions.  Try so music put on some music and both of you dance around as you fold and put away the articles together.  Another option could be to get a movie and while enjoying the movie together put the laundry in front of you to fold.  Make a game of it pretend the washing machine and dryer are basketball goals and the clothes are the basketball and see how far way you can get and still throw the laundry into the machine.  While laundry isn't most couples choice of the way to spend time together you can chance it up an make it fun.  Oh and if you want to make sure you get all the laundry done why not do it naked, together!

One final note if you go to the laundry mat they kind of frown on you being naked while you do your laundry :-o

Sexual Healing Day in Washington DC

On this day in History 1973, Washington, D.C. declared it Marvin Gaye Day.  Maybe the government of this country actually knew how much sexual healing was needed.  Far and away the song Sexual Healing  by Marvin Gaye is one of the most sexy songs ever created.  Why not download a copy of this song and listen to it with your lover and see what happens.  Listening to the smooth voice of Marvin and the beat of the music might just allow the two of you to have a little sexual healing yourself.

Royal Wedding One Year Ago

Last year T-Mobile celebrated the Royal Wedding a little differently :)  

This kind of a party - filled with laughter, letting go, and being real - 

should last throughout all of our relationships.   

Isn't it time we put it back in place.  Sing, dance, laugh! 

Have a great time with your friends AND your partner.
