This & That

Latest & Greatest News in My Life

I’m still alive & kicking – well kinda!

Haven’t been around much online lately, real life’s been getting in the way of my cyberlife. I haven’t even logged in to Twitter lately to see what everyone’s been up to & whats going on in the world… I know it’s sacrilegious!!

But I managed to get my left and right feet completely confused and missed the bottom step as I walked out of the supermarket. I went ‘SPLAT’ like a starfish all over the footpath, groceries everywhere, coke bottles exploding and bread getting squashed. I’m sure it would’ve been a total sight.

According to the incredibly rude and dis-interested Doctor I didn’t manage to break or fracture anything, but the girls don’t agree. My Ankle has swollen up and looks somewhat like a squashed football, turning various shades of purple & blue. If only I had a camera and could show you – It’s kinda pretty in an ugly kind of way.

Anyway I think I may have mentioned a possible new FWB on twitter about a week ago. He’s actually quite sweet and nice, just a shame he doesn’t live closer. I met him online a few months ago, we got along well. He has great taste in music, is laid back and cruisey and there’s no doubt we’d hang out as friends all the time if he lived near by. Anyway a month or so after I met him, long before I could get my act together to go meet him some other woman snapped him up – my timing always sucks!! lol

Now another month or two later she spat him back out all chewed up and broken hearted.  Some women fucking piss me off – I know not all relationships work out, but what she did really stinks. Waking up one morning to say ‘I don’t love you anymore’ and then showing him the door. Oh well, her fucking loss I guess.

It’s neither the deep seeded kind of connection I felt when I first met -B, but I doubt I’d ever feel quite that way about anyone else (There’s a huge long back story that started when I was 14 that made the whole thing with -B special) yet he makes me smile and laugh and feel somewhat special. But here’s the crux, I don’t want enough of a relationship to call anything committed, yet at the same time I know I’m never going to be able to just have totally anonymous sex with someone I’ve just barely met. Christ after months of fucking -B I never quite managed to let go and be as sexually uninhibited as I actually am, so can’t see it happening in a situation without any kind of emotional investment. Being insecure and having low self esteem coupled with I guess a negative self image can be quite inhibiting to ones sexual freedom.

I won’t be going anywhere for the next week or so due to my ankle & X taking the car just to be spiteful (Yet another massive fight with X last weekend) so I’ve got time to get to know him a little better and maybe even a chance to consult -B. Although I never let go physically with him, I can tell that guy anything, he’s like a rock sometimes. So that’s about it. I busted my ankle and am stuck high & dry & horny, hopefully this situation will resolve itself…..and soon.

The Australian Designed and Owned Sex Toy

When I first discovered the BeBe I was so ecstatic. I’d finally found an Australian Designed Toy created by Australian Women. If you haven’t already noticed I’m kind of passionate about both Australia and Sex Toys, so it was a total Win for me.

Add to that the fact that the lovely ladies behind the very beautiful BeBe are from Thirroul, a place very close to my heart and I just started jumping for joy inside– for those that know the Southern Sydney area I grew up in “the shire” and have been to ‘the gong’ more times than I ever could count.

When the lovely Kristine & Lisa, the inspirational pair of women behind the BeBe said they would send me one for review I was over the moon!

In order to give you a fair review I must admit I already had love for their Baby even before I laid eyes on her. But that love simply deepened after I got to play with her. See I call my BeBe ‘her’… I really do love her

Her Beauty starts with the packaging & presentation of the toy. It comes gift wrapped with a book mark – which asks are you really interested in reading? No I want to play with my toy! lol.

Under the pretty paper that’s tied with a ribbon you will find a very plain looking cardboard box, it truly juxtaposes the stunning jewel hiding within. The BeBe has the most luxurious, creative packaging and storage I’ve ever come across. Designed not only to carry and care for its cargo, but to also be able to sit out in the open without looking like there’s a sex toy hidden within.

storage and packaging for the Beautiful BeBe

The elegantly adorned “Egg” that houses your BeBe opens up to reveal the toy. Nestled gently into its velvet lined container, when you pick up the BeBe she reveals her required 2 AA sized batteries nestled into their own nook. If its visual aspects weren’t delightful enough, there’s that extra sprinkling of joy when you realise you aren’t going to have to go searching for batteries before you can play! It’s these small little elegant touches that give the BeBe its high end look and feel.

The Egg shaped Storage reminds be a little of an Ostrich egg, but with its flat base it can fit into most people’s bedside tables at 13cm long x 6.5cm wide x 6cm high. Mine sits easily into the drawer of my dressing table, nestled amongst my underwear, but she could just as easily sit out in the open as it is so discreet.

Have I said enough about how great the packaging/ storage for the BeBe is? Want to hear about the actual toy itself now?? sorry I just love great storage and packaging!

The BeBe is an external style vibrator, along the lines of the layaspot and other clitoral vibrators, formed from sleek shiny Purple Plastic that is both Phthalate Free & body safe.  Adorned with two simple to use buttons that together form a pretty heart, again form & function creating true beauty.

Be Beautiful Be You

The buttons are both placed and programmed for easy, intuitive use. The BeBe moulds itself to both the curve. of your body and your hand with the controls perfectly aligning with your fingers as you hold it in your hand. To switch the BeBe on you just hold down the two buttons, causing a red light to illuminate around the heart shape of the buttons.

The two buttons are used to increase and decrease the speed and intensity of the vibrations. Unlike other toys you don’t need to keep pressing the buttons to cycle through the vibration patterns and intensities but rather you simply hold down the right button until it reaches the level you desire. It is also simple to decrease the vibrations by pushing the left button. To switch your BeBe off just simply hold down both the buttons for 2 seconds.

This is a function either forgotten or not cared about in a lot of sex toy designs. Often you must cycle through all vibration patterns before being able to switch the toy off, which isn’t something you want to worry about if you get caught whilst you thought the kids were asleep for their afternoon nap, or your flatmate arrives home unexpected etc.

The vibrations range from very soft and hardly there to OMG that feels amazing! The motor is placed in the nose, or tip of the toy creating strong, well focused vibrations. At the same time I found that the vibrations also travel throughout the body of the toy providing very enjoyable stimulation to the entire vulva adding an extra dimension of pleasure on top of the amazing clitoral stimulation. After discovering the joys of using clitoral toys whilst having sex with a partner due to my We Vibe2 I thought I’d give the BeBe a go and found it to be amazing. I’ve always been an external kind of girl, my best and most intense orgasms originate from from my clit so this toy is a perfect addition to my toy box for both solo and partnered play.

Even though she puts out some power packed sensations, she manages to do so without sounding like an electric drill. I could barely hear anything with the covers over me, and is inaudible through a closed door. Making this a great sex toy for those living in dorms or shared houses and especially those with little rug rats running about!!

The BeBe isn’t waterproof, so she shouldn’t be submerged, nor should she be placed under rinning water. Rather use a wash cloth and some warm water & disinfecting soap or disposable toy cleaning wipes. Pop the batteries out and put them to bed along with your BeBe between uses, this will ensure a long life for both your toy and your batteries.

I’m in love with my BeBe, so much so that other toys have been relegated to the box in my cupboard to make room in my dressing table for her. She is Elegantly designed and creates amazing pleasurable sensations, by far out performing some toys created by the big International companies. I’m so Proud that this little Gem is Australian just like me!

The only thing I can fault her on is not being waterproof, but she excels in all other areas I can’t help but forgive her for this single fault. The Girls have done such a great job in designing and creating the BeBe I hope they will be giving her some sibling toys soon!

If you would like your own BeBe, or would like to find out more about this stunning sex toy and the amazing women behind her visit www.lovebeingwoman.com …’because every woman deserves a little pleasure’

Thanks again to Kristine & Lisa for sending me the BeBe to review.
