Hopefully, he had his Cake, and ate her too. 😛 ---

I took my husband to [Fogo de Chao](http://www.fogodechao.com/) for his birthday a couple weeks ago and sat with him for 3 hours while he ate all the meat and a whole bottle of wine. I’m serving massive pregnant realness, so the funnest I get right now is decent conversation and trying to keep the minute by minute narration of my weird body happenings to a minimum. I got a “best wife” too, though. ---

Mrs. Cake, you can’t be the best wife because my husband tells me I am. And gracer, I get my husband lingerie for his birthday, in my size 🙂 ---

Well, the (not serious) idea was that there would be a whole blow job, but you would only give half of it. – This was harder than I’d thought. I spent almost 5 minutes trying to come up with the right level of subtlety, and I still blew it. Clearly, I suck at this. ---

Hahaha, I did appreciate it the subtle levels of halves, wholes and doubles, 5 minutes well spent. ---

> [@drewtwo99](#): > > Are blowjobs between married straight couples a relatively rare/special occurrence for most people? Well my experience was with one marriage but yes it was rare. So was any activity by the end. Not for lack of trying on my part. ---

> [@AClockworkMelon](#): > > I become disheartened when I hear that for a lot of men a blowjob is something that they get “for their birthday” or whatever. We might be getting our blowjobs from different kinds of people, **drewtwo** , but I share your sentiment. My wife insists that there’s no such thing as a ‘birthday blowjob’. “And anyway,” she adds, “why would you want to get blowjobs just once a year?” "Hey, " I responded, “I get a birthday dinner, too. But I still get three meals a day every day of the year. The birthday dinner is just _extra-special_.” ---

I used to love going out and having a cappicino for something different to home coffee. So I bought an expensive coffee machine and I could have what I wanted anytime. It was not so special anymore. [Anyway.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2JSUXaY-tw&ob=av2e) ---

> [@ToeJam](#): > > I think you’re doing just fine. 😛 Thanks! Feedback during the process is important. I mean, you don’t want to be too delicate, but you also don’t want to just ram it down anyone’s throat. – Generally, if you pay attention to your audience and are willing to adapt to them, you’ll do fine. Not too much, though, you still need to push them a bit. ---

I dunno, my husband says I am the best wife ever when he gets the surprise blowjob. This usually occurs when he is very stressed and complaining about one thing or another. I just go up, pull it out and get to work. Fun for me, relaxing for him. Birthday sex is more…involved than just a blowjob in our house.
