If I Keep Up Like This, I May Go Blind

So I can't stop touching myself. Is that weird?

Perhaps a little backstory is necessary here. I got a new sweater a couple weeks ago, and wore it for the first time today. It is the softest thing ever. It feels like I have skinned a newborn baby lamb and wrapped myself in its snuggly goodness. Not that I really know what that feels like, as I've only done it once, and that was for initiation into that club, and I was a little woozy from having drunk all that sacrificial blood, but I digress. This sweater is so soft and warm and fuzzy that I just want to roll up into a ball and cuddle myself. I have turned into a full-fledged autophile. I keep stroking my arms as I walk down the hall. People look at you weird when you do that, did you know? They aren't used to people petting themselves. And caressing and nuzzling and fondling and feeling themselves. But get used to it, folks. I'm wearing this sweater and luxuriating in it until it falls to tatters in my hands, after which I will use the pieces to make a...a...well, a something that I can carry around and continue to cuddle.

Who sung that song back in the 80's (it was a chick on vocals) that went all, "Everytime I think abooooout you I touch myself"?

Funny, but sounds a bit narcissistic to me... maybe you should invite others to enjoy the experience and to pet your sweater.

I am wearing one that is much softer – you are welcome to come over and do the same while I have it on ; )

Haha, that's great. If anything they will mistake you for being over-confident. I do the same thing with my arms as I rub them all the time because I like how they feel. Well all the girls at work think I am confident.

So hey, the sweater just helps you out if anything.

Yep, the Divinyls. The singer's name was Christina Amphlett...and now I see a renewed effort by AMG. Now, that's a good idea for a music video - AMG petting her sweater. :) You'll be rich! Filthy rich! Woo!

You've gut guts, AMG. I expected that all the comments above mine would be 'but I'd touch you, save you the trouble.' And, 'Come here, my pet.' And 'it's only wrong to touch yourself if you don't let me watch.' Etc.

I really can't believe I'm having to supply the cheap pickup-line comments. What else? Uh...

Oh, I have something soft you could touch, but it might not stay soft...

Or, 'Let me feel, I need proof.'

Oh, and, 'You don't have to go blind to touch my face.'

What else?

But then, I'm the geek that approached girls in 8th grade, dropping to a knee in the lunch room and shouting, 'I love you, marry me and have my baby!' To a girl I'd never exchanged a word with. More than one girl, come to think of it.

I haven't been able to stop touching myself either in over 18 years regardless of what sweater I wear!

Peace

i'm totally showing my cheap roots... but i saw a similar material sweater at Costco and just stayed there feeling it and rubbing it against my face until my husband finished shopping. but did he get the hint? Noooooo.

I had one like that and I ran out and tried to get another, but no luck. Then I was a good mom and gave it to my daughter who had been lusting after it. The sacrifices we make for our kids... sheesh!

I say go for it, touch yourself!
