Confessions of A Naughty Girl

The Longest Streak

I just came home from a cookie decorating party (don't get me started). One of my co-workers was there, and every time someone would put private parts on a gingerbread boy (okay, I admit, I was the only person making pervy cookies, but whatever), she would look away and mutter something about how we don't know how long it's been.

Which got me thinking...how long is a single person expected to go without action? And what, exactly, constitutes "action"? Is it holding hands? Making out? Sex? Anal beads? I mean, honestly. I would assume that most people's unit of measure is sex, because it's pretty stupid to talk about how long it's been since you've gotten some feel up action or something. I always wonder how long it really is when people say they've gone a "long time".

Currently, I am at...hmm, sixteen days, or something like that. I do not think this is a long time. I mean, it's not yesterday, which sucks, but I was unfortunately under the influence last time (okay, barely coherent), which also sucks, because it's hard to feel like it hasn't been a long time when you can barely remember the last time, you know? I think my longest streak ever has been five months, and that felt like f*cking eternity. At that point, you don't even feel human anymore. Someone eventually touches you and you either don't know what to do with them or just have an O right then and there.

So what is a "long time"? I'm interested to hear thoughts on this, particularly those of readers who make self-claims about Cal Ripken-like streaks.
