I'm not a professional writer...I'm not a professional anything....well I may be considered a professional Adam fan....too bad that's not a real job that comes with benefits and a paycheck. Oh the possibilities :) But the thing is I would love to be a professional writer. I love to write and I think I'm pretty good at it. I write part-time for an online site called The Content Authority and it's great. I make a little bit of extra money and get to write about a wide variety of topics ranging from the best brand of adult diapers to finding real estate in Zephyr Hills, Florida. Seriously. It's good practice but the instructions are pretty strict and once I'm paid for the content it is published in places I never get to see and I'm not credited as the author. When I write from a creative place it seems I can only write in the mornings when I have ample time and lately I haven't been inspired OR had that ample time at the same time. Ha. That sounds like an excuse but it's really true.

SO......I'm going to try to just write in my blog and try to get the creative juices flowing or something like that. If you read it great, please leave some comments. If you don't read it that's OK too.

Morning

I've been sick for the past week. I was seriously ill on Thursday and Friday and had to muster up a tremendous amount of 'get up and go' to make myself go to work.....miserable and sleep deprived but I survived the workweek and I'm taking it super easy this weekend so that I can be well for next week. I've definitely noticed that it's a lot harder to shake off these minor illnesses and keep up with life's daily responsibilities when you get older. Oye!

Last night I slept pretty good. I went to sleep with my bedroom TV on VH1. Early morning I found myself gently awakened by a familiar tune....it was Adam singing 'Better Than I Know Myself'. For some reason I looked at my phone...hmmm nope it wasn't coming from my phone. Then I rolled over and looked at the TV. His video was playing on VH1. Smile :) Snuggle into my covers and fall back to sleep.

Sauli's Travel Woes

Poor Sauli! What a horrible thing to happen. I can't even imagine. I've only flown cross-country a couple of times (including connecting flights in horrible airports) and it's quite exhausting and uncomfortable even when things go smoothly....middle seat anyone?

I'm glad that Sauli is being independent and traveling on his own in the US. I think that's important for him and for their relationship. I get lambasted by some Glamberts every time I mention this wild idea but I will continue to stand by my opinion. In my wildest romantic dreams I cannot fathom a long-lasting relationship out of Sauli being a 'kept man' with no personal passions or endeavors. I think that storyline works great in romantic novels but not so much in real-life relationships. Adam said they are working to find a balance and trying to give each other space and that's a good thing. I feel very strongly that Sauli himself is probably adamant about the fact that he do his own thing sometimes and not tag along all the while when Adam is traveling for work. As we've seen he can fly in and be with Adam when time permits. And sometimes he stays home and does his own things. Ultimately it will be Sauli who has to make the most compromise and sacrifice and I have the utmost respect for him for that. I'm excited to see how they manage their relationship as Adam's chapter 2 progresses. Personally I hope he can come along on tour from time to time just for the full experience and I hope he isn't intimidated by the Glamberts LOL. Also so he can keep Adam feeling happy and ~satisfied so he doesn't get lonely or stressed out. But so is the life of a rockstar....it is tour buses and dressing rooms and lonely nights in hotel rooms. This is Adam...this is what he was meant to do and it's a fire inside him and whether or not Sauli is physically with him they always have their emotional connection to sustain them.

Anyway...sorry to get off on that tangent :) Back to Sauli's travel nightmare....it's nice that he was put up in that lovely hotel for the night and I'm sure the upgrade to first class was nice but that's not apt compensation for what he was put through. I saw a website someone posted on Twitter that explains the way passengers are to be compensated and it's very specific in dollars and cents as in he is due to be financially compensated for the value of his ticket times three! I hope he pursues this. I know I would.

I'm glad he finally made it home to LA and Mr. Lambert was quite upset by the incident but now that Adam is home I'm sure they are "laughing bout it". I find it kind of funny that the first time Sauli spends the night in the US somewhere other than LA, NY or Vegas without Adam is in freaking Minnesota. It's also kind of ironic....OOFTA!!

I love Sauli's writing. He's a great story-teller and I love the way his writing is often laced with ire and sarcasm. Although he's been living in the US continuously since July he did live the rest of his life in Finland and the US is apparently quite different. I don't expect the stories of wonderment, awe and 'what the fuck?' to end anytime soon.

Adam's Promo

Wow! Adam's promo trip back East was a whirlwind. So many appearances and performances. So many Glamberts got to meet Adam. Congrats to you all! Now that Adam is back home and the album delay is 'official' I wonder what's next? It seems risky to lose his momentum. I guess we will find out. I'm hoping for a new single to drop soon. I guess for now he needs a few days to rest up and the Glamberts need a few days to catch up :)

Good Eats

Yesterday I made a double batch of this great semi-homemade soup recipe that I made up. Now I have a whole crock full of it for later today. Yummy.




Until next time....have a great Sunday and feel free to leave me a comment below. While I appreciate that everyone has an opinion and you are certainly within your rights to disagree with mine please don't leave rude comments on my blog.

Thank You.

PS: I'm in the process of getting the soup recipe published on Yahoo and I will tweet the link when it is available.

 

To Berlin with Love

Moving from my other VOX blog...originally published on May 23rd, 2010.

Adam was roused from a light sleep by the feeling that someone was staring at him. He looked to his left, across the aisle to see Tommy Joe quickly snap his eyes shut. Adam smiled to himself and closed his eyes....remembering...

The London show in Heaven the night before was fantastic. The crowd was very fired up and Adam, his band and dancers really felt the love. Afterwards, the whole crew went to a club to celebrate. Tommy Joe lost track of his water to alcohol ratio and quickly became inebriated. Ever valiant, Adam took on the role of caretaker for drunk Tommy. He held him steady while they waited for their cab and Tommy wrapped his arms around Adam and held on tight. Back at the hotel Adam walked Tommy to his room, took off his boots and his jacket and helped him into bed. Adam pulled the covers up to Tommy's chin and tucked him in snugly. "Thank You" Tommy whispered. "Sure honey! That's what friends are for! Get some sleep doll we have an early flight." Adam bent down and kissed Tommy on the tip of his nose. Adam gazed at Tommy for a second, smiling to himself at how cute he looked, then turned to leave. "Adam...wait...Adam, I love you man...I really do." "I love you too Glitterbaby...nite-nite".

Adam was jolted as the plane touched down. He glanced over at Tommy, "Yay Berlin!" "What happens in Berlin stays in Berlin" Tommy joked. "So how are you feeling tequilla eyes?" Adam flashed Tommy a knowing smile and gave him a little wink. Tommy became a little flushed, whipped out his shades and slid them onto his face. "I'm locked and loaded and ready to roll!"

When the gang arrived at their hotel it was around 9pm. They had an early appearance on a television show so Monte suggested they all have dinner together before hitting the hay. "You guys go ahead, I'm really tired and really wired, I think I'll just order something and eat in my room." Adam excused himself and bid them all good-night. Once in his suite Adam went through his normal short stay unpacking ritual, changed into some comfy clothes and called room service. He ordered some whiskey, some water and a steak salad. Adam situated himself on the bed, propped up on some pillows and got the TV remote to check out the movies that were available. He set Avatar to start in 30 minutes and closed his eyes. Lying perfectly still he began some deep breathing, in through the nose and out through the mouth, slowly. Just as Adam began to feel relaxed there was a knock at his door. The waiter let himself into the room calling out "Room service?". "Come on in" Adam said without opening his eyes. The waiter rolled the serving cart into the room and began to set up Adam's dinner on the table. When he was done he stood at the side of the bed and asked Adam if he needed anything else. "No. I think I'm good. Thank you very much." Adam reached for his wallet on the bedside table and handed the waiter a fifty dollar bill. "Thank you sir" the waiter said as he bowed and turned to leave. "Could you put out the do not disturb sign on my door please?" Adam asked. "Yes, of course, sir. Have a good evening".

Adam sat down at the table and poured himself a whiskey. He took a long drink and savored the slight burn as the smooth liquid went slowly down his throat. "Mmmmmm". Adam began eating his salad as his movie started. Two bites in he heard another knock at his door. Feeling slightly annoyed Adam went to see who it was. When he opened the door he was pleasantly surprised to see Tommy. "Hi!" Tommy said "Want some company?" "Sure! I have steak and whiskey...wanna share it with me?" "Cool...two of my favorite things" Tommy said as he shut the door behind him. Adam noticed Tommy was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, "Did you not go to dinner with the gang?" "Nah...not really in the mood for noise and crowd tonight". "I hear ya buddy". Adam poured Tommy a whiskey and they had a little toast. "To Berlin!" Adam said as he raised his glass in the air to meet Tommy's. Adam collected a nice bite of salad with a juicy piece of steak onto the fork and offered it to Tommy. Tommy wrapped his lips around the fork and slid the food off slowly, gazing naughtily into Adam's eyes. "Mmmmm...that's really good". Adam and Tommy ate the salad, taking turns giving each other bites and sipping on their whiskey while they watched Avatar. Adam smiled broadly at Tommy, "Check my teeth?" "They're good" Tommy said and showed Adam his own teeth for inspection. "You're good too doll" Adam said.

They took the whiskey and moved over to the bed to watch the rest of the movie. They propped up on a million pillows and Adam turned off the lights. Only the light from the TV flickered in the room. "This is nice" Adam smiled at Tommy. "Yes it is" Tommy said. Sometime later Adam awoke to find Tommy snuggled close to him, his head nestled in Adam's underarm, sleeping, with a very peaceful look on his face. Tommy's hand was lying on Adam's stomach, one leg draped across Adam's. He tried hard to remain still so as not to wake Tommy. He just wanted to look at him for a while.

Adam contemplated what this all meant in terms of their relationship. The chemistry between he and Tommy was undeniable from the moment they met but over the past few months they had developed a very close friendship and a real connection. Whether or not Tommy is straight, gay or bi doesn't even matter to Adam because the bond is there, the attraction is there and there's no denying it. Adam has known this for a while but chose to lay back and let fate take the reins. He had no idea what would happen or if anything would happen and he liked that feeling of being suspended in anticipation and the freedom to just let it happen. His hopes that Tommy would eventually broach the subject were apparently coming to fruition tonight.

Adam realized he was stroking Tommy's hair and felt Tommy's hand begin to move on his stomach. Gliding slowly Tommy's fingers gingerly slid underneath Adam's t-shirt. Adam felt the goosebumps rise up on his skin at Tommy's gentle touch. His breath caught in his throat and he felt a rush through his veins! Adam decided to remain passive and let Tommy explore. There was not a sound in the room as the movie had ended. Adam could only hear Tommy's breathing get heavier as his fingers stroked Adam's skin. A finger brushed across Adam's nipple and a gasp escaped his lips. "Tommy" he whispered, his lips in Tommy's hair "Baby....that feels so good". Tommy did not speak and did not look up. Adam could feel Tommy getting hard against his leg as his fingers slid slowly across the waist of Adam's pants. Adam's own erection was growing and he shivered at the thought of Tommy touching his cock. He wanted Tommy to look at him, he needed to see his eyes! He kissed Tommy's hair and moved down to his forehead gently kissing and trying to direct Tommy's face towards him. "Baby can you look at me?" Adam spoke sweetly and softly. Tommy's hand suddenly stopped stroking and reached towards Adam's face. Adam took Tommy's hand into his and brought it to his lips. Adam kissed the tips of Tommy's fingers and slid them across his wet lips. When Adam slid his tongue in between Tommy's fingers he looked up, locking his gaze upon Adam's. Tommy watched as Adam slid his tongue up and down his fingers and slowly sucked each one into his mouth. Tommy's mouth moved closer and closer, involuntarily drawn to Adam's. Their eyes were locked upon each other's as Adam worked his oral magic on Tommy's virgin hand. Tommy was breathing heavily and suddenly pulled his hand from Adam's grasp. Adams lips were red and shiny and Tommy slid his fingers across them while biting his own lip. Adam knew that Tommy was curious. Adam knew that Tommy wanted to kiss him. But Adam knew that Tommy was tormented and confused.

Adam took Tommy's hand into his and snaked their fingers together, intertwined. "Tommy, babe, tell me what you want" Adam whispered, their lips just inches apart. Finally Tommy spoke, in a quiet, breathy whisper "I want....I want....." he struggled to get the words out, "I want this..." and brushed his lips against Adam's. Sparks flew between them...instant electricity! "I want...this" Tommy said again, louder this time and kissed Adam gently, lingering just a second, their eyes still locked upon each other's. "Oh God Adam...I want....this" Tommy kissed him again and Adam felt Tommy's tongue brush his lips. "Damn..." Adam thought to himself...he was having a hard time maintaining his composure at this point and his cock was pulsating in his pants. "Do you want to kiss me baby?" Adam asked taking Tommy's face into his hands.  "Oh God I want to kiss you so fucking bad!" Tommys lips were flush with Adam's and suddenly he was climbing on top of Adam, straddling him. "Fuck..." Adam said just as Tommy's tongue slid into his mouth. Adam melted into the kiss which was long and hard and wet and ravenous! Groans and moans escaped both mens' mouths as their tongues explored and danced together. Tommy's body was writhing on top of Adam's, his ass pressing on Adam's rock hard cock. Adam reached around and grabbed Tommy's ass and pressed him down hard. A jagged moan emanated from Tommy's mouth, still wide open, pressed hard against Adam's mouth. Adam could feel Tommy's cock pressing on his stomach. Finally Tommy slid his lips down Adam's neck and began to gently suck, breathing heavily into Adam's ear. "Oh shit baby I'm going to fucking come" Adam leaned his head back, offering up his throat to Tommy's mouth. Tommy pulled Adam's shirt off over his head and began to lick and suck his beautiful neck. "Oh God Adam" Tommy spoke into Adam's skin "I want you to come....I want to make you come....I want you to come all over me....I've fantasized about it!" "Fuck...are you sure?" Adam didn't know why he was asking that question because he was pretty damn sure Tommy was sure and he knew he was damn sure too! "Yes...God yes...I'm sure!"

Tommy slid off of Adam and sat back for a second. Breathing hard, both speechless their eyes locked together. "There's no going back..." Tommy leaned over and kissed Adam's stomach, swirling his tongue in Adam's navel and gliding it slowly downwards. "Can we take these off?" Tommy whispered into Adam's skin, tugging at the waist of the pajama pants Adam was wearing. Adam lifted up and pulled his pants down to his knees, Tommy pulled them off and threw them on the floor. Tommy just stared, his mouth trying to form some words, Adam now lying fully naked in front of him. "Adam...you're so beautiful...oh my God!" Adam pulled Tommy to him and kissed him again, softly and gently. Tommy pulled off and his lips found Adam's ear "I don't know how.....I want to make you come...how do I do it?" Tommy whispered, sounding distressed and shaking, his hand gliding down touching Adam's chest, his stomach, then his thigh..."Just do what you know...do what feels comfortable....it's me baby, I'm not going to judge you" Adam said in a reassuring tone that instantly set Tommy at ease. "Just touch me baby." Adam gently guided Tommy's hand to his cock and began to assist in stroking it. Together they stroked Adam's cock while Adam kissed and stroked Tommy's hair. "Mmmmm....baby you're doing good" Adam whispered. Soon Adam let Tommy take over. He raised his hands above his head and grabbed ahold of the headboard and began to move his hips in rhythm with Tommy's strokes. Adam bit his lip as he watched Tommy's hand move up and down his cock. "Oh fuck yes baby, you're doing damn good!" Adam began to sense the feeling of Tommy's hot breath on his cock and noticed that Tommy was inching his mouth closer and closer...."Oh my God if his mouth touches my cock I'm going to explode" Adam thought to himself. "I want to taste you Adam...I want to so bad" Tommy said and looked up into Adam's eyes in search of approval. "Oh God..." was all Adam could say. Tommy's strokes and Adam's hips were in perfect sync....suddenly Adam felt Tommy's warm, wet lips brush the head of his cock. "Yes baby...oh God yes that's good".  Adam knew it was not going to be long until he came. This was way too hot! He wanted it to last forever but he knew he couldn't hold out much longer! Tommy's strokes were getting faster, his lips tighter as he was taking in more of Adam's cock each time he went down. Tommy was moaning with Adam's cock in his mouth. "Oh shit...oh baby I'm going to come!!" Adam had to resist the urge to straight up fuck Tommy's mouth it felt so damn good. Tommy pulled off just long enough to say "Come for me...please come for me!!!" Tommy plunged Adam's cock into his mouth and stroked harder and faster, covering the entire length of Adam's cock with his mouth and his hand. Tight, slick, hot, wet....Adam's mind was spinning!!! "Oh fuck yes baby I'm going to come!!" He held tight to the headboard and arched his back one last time. "Ohhhh I'm coming...oh FUUUUCK!!!!" Tommy pulled off just at that moment and let Adam's come spray his lips and face then he licked and sucked as Adam fucked into his mouth repeatedly until his orgasm was spent.
