Holiday Hookup

red light in winterWhat is it about the holidays that makes singles so dang horny?

Wait, let me guess. They refuse to start a dating relationship, lest they hit it off and have to introduce someone new to the relatives, or be forced to ring in the New Year without a gotta find someone special resolution to make. Add some cold winter nights, and you’re mixing up Dad’s House favorite winter old home remedy.

Sex.

It’s part of the standard issue single parent Holiday Wish Book. Okay, so sex is also a remedy for spring, summer, and fall. You have to admit, it’s a good one!

I hear what you’re saying: “But Dads, you keep saying you’re looking for someone at your same life stage!”

And you’re exactly right. My life stage is this: I’m single. I’m a dad. I’d like to meet someone long term, but in the meantime I wouldn’t mind a hug or a snuggle or even a sexy romp. Call it a craving for physical intimacy.

So how did the holiday play out? I didn’t have my kids on Christmas day, so we celebrated on our own good time the weekend before with my folks, and the day before with gifts. Throughout, I marched to my own drummer (easy to do in a down economy) by refusing to wish for any of the things the commercials told me to wish for. No Black and Decker, no Mercedes with a bow, no Chia pet (priceless humor, that.) I also didn’t longingly pine for the princess of my dreams to manifest in my life.

I put my flirting radar into red light mode.

Did my sexy Christmas wish come true?

Let’s just say my red light gave Rudolf’s nose a run for the money. And I can’t say I went cold.

Gotta love mistletoe. Does it work year-round?

  1. No Mercedes? No Lexus? Well that right there might be the problem. :)

    justrun´s last blog post..It’s just coincidence that it’s the end of the year

  2. Tell me about it: What IS it about the holidays? I’m feelin’ it, too.

    You know I want more details, Dad’s House….

    single mom seeking´s last blog post..Guess who’s coming to visit for the New Year?

  3. Well, you can’t just leave us out in the cold like that, DH! But glad you kept warm all the same ;)

  4. Good for you Dads! Glad you had a very Merry Christmas suitable for your life stage.

  5. Woohoo!!

    Hooray for the Christmas sex!

    Somethings Santa just can’t bring enough of, right?

    T´s last blog post..A dose of E for my birthday

  6. I’ve never met a mistletoe I didn’t like!

  7. Oh, but the details are all there. I had sex in the backseat of a Mercedes with a woman wearing nothing but a bow. She had a Chia pet bobble head on the dash. As for the Black and Decker… some things are better left to the imagination… (oy!)

  8. I guess its either red light or blue balls . . . .

  9. I am jealous! Pure and simple!

  10. Good God, Dads — you didn’t do it with Rudolph!

    The bigger underlying feeling of sadness for me this season was that The Kid is older and the “magic” of the gifts under the tree part of Christmas is gone (although I truly surprised him with his gift). When I took an early-morning walk with Roxy, I heard the squeals of delight coming from neighbors’ houses, the ones with young kids. I got all misty-eyed!

    And what Santa didn’t give me in way of love and sex, I gave myself … know what I mean?

    Kat Wilder´s last blog post..But I don’t want to do it all myself!

  11. Ugh! I hear ya. Happy Horny Christmas! Glad *someone* got what they wished for! ;)

  12. Gotta love mistletoe…

    I stumbled across a Christmas card that had the “right way to hang mistletoe” (above your head) and the “wrong way to hang mistletoe” (on your crotch). Although maybe the card got it wrong…

  13. Kira, that’s funny.

    Maybe it was my mistletoe cologne… “DH Two”.
    “DH One”, of course, being a BBQ scent.
    Damn Macy’s for not carrying it this year!

    And Jimmy, your comment was really funny. Hall of fame material.

  14. All that and a Chis pet, too? Wow~ good for you, Dad’s!

  15. I don’t even UNDERSTAND the last part of your post, but I guess I can be a little slow sometimes. I just hope it doesn’t mean you went some red light district to get some sex.

    singleworkingmommy´s last blog post..Dang, mang

  16. SWM – no red light districts for me. I sometimes speak and write in riddles. The key phrase: I didn’t go cold. And there were no red lights. Just warmth. (And no reindeer)

  17. I didn’t have sex for a week and a half, including Christmas. And then I had sex last night and this morning. It was AWESOME.
