Ahern, Cecelia - The Time of my Life

Story of this book

I got this book as a birthday gift from my flatmate.

Story of this moment 

The title really reflects this moment. I'm having the time of my life. Or am I? It's April Sunday afternoon, the weather behind the window is changing every minute and I'm convinced not to get out of my bed. I took a shower and returned to my bed naked, quickly checked if I got a message from a guy I met just 3 weeks ago on a Tinder date. We are not real Tinder types who want to get laid fast, but the chemistry made it fast for us. I'm looking for love after being hurt so much in the past and I'm still recovering...

I wanted to send him some pics with peeping nipple, just gentle seducing way. But the daylight was too harsh so that I used my book as a shield and let it on my breasts then. I saw that this pic with a book covering my boobs is even more seducing, story-telling, provocative but still tackling imagination and then I started thinking about what people are really doing in their beds. What stories and memories are made there.

While being single for 3 years, recovering from a break up with a guy who I thought I'm gonna spend the rest of my life with, sleeping alone is making me feel like I'm loosing the time of my life...still looking for the ONE guy to spend the rest of my life with. When can I fully enjoy the luxury to spend and create beautiful, not just sexual memories in the bed? When I will hug the person laying next to me with my love and passion, feeling secured, feeling my place under the sun, instead of taking the phone right as soon as I wake up to check "what if" disillusion... "What if I have a new message?", "What if he sent me a pic?", "What if I have a new match?"

Books are sexy, people are sexy, dreaming and being in bed is sexy so why are we so obsessed by digital life, chasing "likes" and "what if" moments, spending hours watching videos on the phone while laying in the bed next to people we've chosen?

Maybe I'm a dreamer and I definitely have a good fantasy to play with... With this website Books&Boobs, I want to inspire people, connect them, exchange stories, moments, pictures...create publicly accepted intimacy. Something beautiful. I imagine that this blog will inspire at least one guy, to turn off his phone and put it on the night stand, look at his unique girlfriend resting in the bed and reading a book, put his hands on her secret spots and tell her how amazing she looks when reading that book...and true intimacy will enter bedrooms once again after being vanished in digital disillusions...

This is the beauty of love...the power which keeps us going...
