TMI Tuesday

From the vaults:

1) What was the last fantasy you thought about while masturbating?

 A giant gangbang.  Actually, more like a swinger party, but with plenty of guys for me.  I fantasize about having maybe five guys to myself, but being in a room with a bunch of other people who are all fucking, swapping partners, etc.  Sometimes it's just me and Sveta with a bunch of guys, who go back and forth between us filling available slots (so to speak).  Sometimes I invite other people to my party.  But I want at least three guys to myself at all times.

2) Do you think about fantasies while playing with your partner?

Yes.  Sometimes we talk about them.  It's usually not anything concrete, maybe just some ideas of how it would be awesome if a guy showed up and started plowing me while I was eating her out, etc.

3) If the sex isn’t that great do you find your mind wanders? If yes, to what?

Depends on the quality of sex.  If I'm bored but the sex is okay, I might think about fantasies, just to keep in the flow, get off, etc.  But if the sex is really blah, I might start thinking about totally unsexy things, which can get me into trouble.  It usually hinges on whether I expect to orgasm.  If it doesn't seem like that's going to happen, unsexy thoughts are definitely going to come to mind.  If I think I might be able to squeeze one out, I just think of sexy things, since clearly I need some help.

4) Have you ever thought about a previous partner while with another?

All the damn time.  It doesn't happen much with partners who are long-term, but I'll be fucking a guy and thinking about some other casual encounter frequently.  Or about Sveta.  Or my family.  It's either to help me along or it's because I'm bored.  Yes, I get bored with sex.  You wouldn't think that, but it does happen, and it's okay.  Even things we enjoy a lot can be boring sometimes.  If I'm not in the right headspace, sex can be dull as dishwater.

5) What is the biggest turn-off thought that has barged into your head at the wrong moment?

Bills.  Or deadlines.  Pretty much anything from non-sexual life can ruin my mojo.  I can get it back, but sometimes it totally kills any hope I have of getting off (and that happens more now than it used to because getting off is more of a chore).  Good sex, it doesn't happen, but if the sex is mediocre, I'll find myself, as I said, paying bills in my head or something and I just dry up.  I try not to let on, but it usually means I'm not asking for seconds.

TMI Tuesday

From the vaults.  I'm going to answer some of these as if I didn't have medical issues because most of them are still true, albeit more difficult.

1. What is the best way you like to be brought to orgasm?

The best way?  I have shattering orgasms from DP.  I think penetration really helps my O.  I used to be able to cum from penetration alone, no help required.  These days, help is required, but penetration improves things.  That's why God made toys so girl-on-girl doesn't have to be just clit stim.

2. What is the best way to make you orgasm quickly?

Quickly, clit stimulation.  That usually gets me off the quickest.  But it's worth it to incorporate other things because the orgasms are better.

3. What is the typical or usual way that a lover chooses to bring you to orgasm?

For guys, penetration.  Yes, I do get head and yes I do get tongue Os, but with guys I cum with them inside me a vast majority of the time.  I prefer oral to lead up to the orgasm that I'm going to have with him fucking me, rather than being the orgasm and then him fucking me without me cumming.  Although if I cum from head and then cum again from penetration, that's fine by me.

With the ladies, even though I love toys and so forth, by and large it's oral combined with some fingering.  No complaints about that at all; I love oral and fingering.  Toys are for times when there's enough time and space for toys.  These days, I get more toy action, and more tribbing than I ever did before I met Sveta, but still I think the good old lips-and-finger gives me more Os than anything else.

4. After a night of sexy play, how do you like to end the evening?

If we mean "sexy play" as in sex, then I like to close out with cuddling in the afterglow.  If we mean "sexy play" as in foreplay, then I want to end the evening with sex, please, then afterglow cuddling.

5. Have you ever been given a “happy ending” from a professional (e.g., Tantric massage) or at an erotic massage parlor?

I haven't.  I've actually thought about it because of my medical issues, but the money is scarce at the moment.  If I were to go for this, it would be a real professional who specializes in women with issues orgasming, not just some random person.

6. Tell us about something you tried to end? Did you go cold turkey? Did you succeed? Was it a happy ending?

I quit smoking cold turkey.  It pretty much took, although I backslid a few times because of stress in the following years.  But I quit and didn't smoke for a long time, not just a couple of days.  Then after I'd backslid a few times, I still didn't pick it up and start buying packs of cigarettes; I would bum them off of people when going got particularly tough, or in social situations.  And then I finally hit the point where smoking made me feel disgusted with myself, and I quit smoking the cigarette I was smoking at the time in mid puff and never looked back.   I think I've had three cigarettes since, and that was years ago.  Now I vape (yes, I know, I know, but I don't really care) but that's actually because my doctor recommended nicotine for some issues I have, and I didn't want to go back to smoking and patches and gum are expensive.  But I didn't quit by vaping.  That's a whole different habit.

So I guess that was fairly happy.

I also quit caffeine cold turkey when I went to college because I wanted to save it for when I really needed it.  It had stopped doing anything for me.  But I didn't really quit because I wanted to quit as much as I quit because I wanted caffeine to start working again.  It sort of worked.  Now, I can have a cup of coffee and it will keep me from falling asleep at the wheel in the morning if I have to go somewhere.  And I have coffee and tea when I feel like having it.  So I don't think this really counts.

Bonus: Do you like to give erotic “happy endings”? Tell us about your technique.

I think handjobs are wasteful.  If I'm going to give someone a "happy ending" I'd much prefer to do something they can't do better to themselves.  Seriously ladies, stop giving handjobs.  Unless you're a kid and you don't want to do anything more, a handjob is just masturbation that you're probably not as good at as they are.  Most guys are pretty good at getting themselves off, and while yes, they may enjoy the idea of someone else stroking their cock for them, they'll enjoy someone sucking that cock more, and they'll enjoy someone taking their pussy and slipping it down over that cock even more.  If you're going to give your guy a handjob, just tell him, "Okay, rather than just jerking you off, I'm going to let you lie back and I'll do all the work and we'll fuck, okay sweetie?"  Unless he's got a handjob fetish, he's probably not going to refuse.

I know this position isn't a popular one, but I have never courted popularity.

TMI Gameshow

From the vaults:

1. The Price is Right:
What is the right price to make you have sex with a total a total stranger?

Depends on the stranger.  If I'm attracted to them, the price would be shockingly low, to the point where simply coming up to me and saying, "Hey, wanna fuck?" might do it.  If I'm not, there would be negotiations.  With a guy, I could price myself quite reasonably, with maybe some upcharges for premium services.  With a lady... unfortunately, I have a harder time here, because women to whom I'm not attracted tend to turn me off completely.  I'm sure a price could still be reached, but it would probably be more.  Sorry ladies.  But I think $1000 would probably get me to have lackluster one-time sex with pretty much anyone, if we're putting a ceiling on it.  I'm pricing myself out of the market there I know, but it's lower than a lot of people's price, I would imagine.

That said, I'm not looking for johns.  And if I were, I would definitely have to have right of refusal.  And condoms would be worn.  And kissing might not happen.  The price for those rules to be waved would be much, much higher.

But who am I kidding: I fuck plenty of people for free, so I'm not looking to change my business model to premium.

2. Make Me Laugh:
What part of your naked body when touched, makes you laugh?

The underside of my breasts is sometimes really ticklish.  Ditto the fold between ass and thigh.  But I can be pretty ticklish all over.

3. Family Feud:
What act could you do or thing could you say that would really upset your significant other?

"I never really loved you."  That's pretty easy.  As far as something I could do, maybe force her to do something she really didn't want to do.  Seriously, we're talking nuclear option here though.  I wouldn't do either of these things, not because I don't want to upset anyone, but because they're both horrible.

4. Supermarket Sweep:
You’ve been set free in a sex toy market that includes small items (e.g. condoms, vibrators) to large items (e.g. Sybians, spanking benches) and everything in between. What 5 items will you put in your shopping cart?

I've always wanted a Sybian.  Plus, if it were free, even if I didn't want to keep it, I'd pick one up just to give it a shot.  I'd probably go really expensive.  A really high-priced vibe or two.  Something for anal play which is out of my price range, although I don't have a definite pick.  Basically, I'd find the most expensive things I've always wanted to try and get 5 of them.  I'm poor.  Can you tell?

5. The Dating Game (Blind Date, UK version; Perfect Match, Australian version).
Part I – There are 3 contestants to which you will pose your questions. Will your contestants be of your opposite sex, your same sex, or a mix?

Random choice.  There are three or I'd pick an equal distribution.  Obviously they'd all have to want to fuck me; I don't want gay guys or straight gals.  But let whomever is running the show pick the genders.

Part II – What are 3 questions you would ask the contestants?

"Who won the World Series in 1943?"  That's to weed out any Jerry spies.

No, seriously, I have no idea.  Um...

"How about we forget this stupid game show idea and you can all go to town on me right now?"  Why pick just one?

Bonus: TMI Tuesday Cash Cab (several International versions) – Unsuspecting taxi passengers hail a cab and suddenly find themselves on a TV game show. While on the cab ride you must do specific acts ordered by your cab driver in order to win cash and get the full free cab ride to your destination.

The TMI Taxi has just picked you up. How much cash will you win? At which level will you stop the cab, end the ride, and be dumped at the curb?

Level 1: Flash passers-by either by lifting your shirt or mooning them – $20 (all cash prize amounts are USD)
Level 2: Dry hump another passenger in the cab with you (remember the camera is recording) – $50
Level 3: French kiss the cab driver for 1 minute – $75
Level 4: Have sex, in the cab, with the other passenger who is a complete stranger and…
– if you are gay/lesbian the stranger is heterosexual
– if you are heterosexual the stranger is your same sex
– if you are bisexual you are just having fun *wink*
Cash prize $1000

I'd love to say that I'd go all the way.  But I'm actually pretty shy in real life.  Still, I'd definitely flash the world for $20 (I've done it for less).  And dry-humping someone for $50 seems reasonable, if perhaps a bit under-priced since it's on camera.  Frenching the driver... if we stop driving so I don't cause him to have an accident, seems okay.  But then the last one... I said my price was $1000, and that had nothing to do with this question.  But my price for on-camera sex is probably higher than that.  Still, if I weren't given time to think about this ahead of time and were just picked up by this cab... I don't know.  The other passenger would have to get some input into this, because even though I'm definitely bi, I'm not raping someone for $1000.  Seems like I'd walk away with $145 here.  The rest of it I could deal with, but porn in the back of a cab with a total stranger... might be worth more to me, despite my definite desire for $1000.

The phrasing of the first option (if you're homosexual, the other person is hetero) implies that... well, I'm not sure what it implies.  It should probably say that if you're gay, the other person is the opposite gender, the one to whom you're not attracted.  Because otherwise, I don't give a damn.  If I were a complete lesbian and had to have sex with a straight girl for $1000, it wouldn't change the price vs. having sex with another lesbian.  Unless it means that you've got to rape this poor hetero person, in which case I'm not only calling a halt to it but putting my knee through the driver's nose and breaking all the expensive equipment.  Because fuck that.

Vitamins

This title is just a bad joke.

So I needed a little Vitamin D, in a big bad way.  I'm not proud.  I don't get cock as often as I'd like by a long shot, and while I have toys and a hot young thing just dying to please me, sometimes I just need a cock.

Fortunately, I pretty much have a standing invitation at Kate's house, and Liam is always happy to oblige.  He's getting it in the ass daily and it makes him incredibly horny, so horny that his mother isn't able to meet his needs.  He's jerking off, poor thing.  He and Kevin have managed to hold off on returning the favor, because Kevin's ass is still not ready for a big cock, and while Liam isn't a horse or anything, he's got one bigger than Kevin can take.

I've told Liam that the solution is for him to find a nice girl his own age, but he hasn't had any luck.  He's a bit socially awkward, and I don't think that fucking his mother has made it any easier.  She has, to her credit, been very supportive of the idea of him getting some in his own bracket, so to speak.  I wasn't sure how she'd take that, but she said she's okay with it, and until it actually happens I don't know that we'll know for sure how she'll actually react.  Liam is worried about it.  I told him that I was there for him for support in his efforts.  Whether that means he comes to me with the news first and I break it to her or whether it means something else entirely, I'm there for him.

So when Kate called and asked if I would be willing to spend the night at her house to keep an eye on things, make sure the place doesn't burn down, etc. while she dealt with something out of town, I was happy to oblige.  I wasn't able to get there until late, later than I wanted because I was sure that everyone would be sleepy by that point.  But it was a weekend night so I hoped, and anyway I could get some in the morning if that's how it shook out.

Kate had already left, and I came in to a seemingly empty house, until I heard grunts from the boys' room.  Liam and Kevin were in there on Kevin's bed, going at it like only two teens can.  I'm not a woman who loves hanging around gay men and I don't watch gay porn or get into gay erotica, but it is incredibly hot to see two brothers fucking.  Kevin had his hands on Liam's hips, his cock buried in his brother's asshole, and Liam's cock was hard as a rock.

"Don't let me interrupt you," I said, grinning.  They grinned back and kept going until Liam said, "Um, Lexi, would you mind sucking me off or something?  I'm just really hard..."

"You'll have enough to give me a proper welcome afterward?" I asked, mock-sternly.

"Yeah!" he said.  "As much as you want.  But Kevin was getting antsy waiting for you, and I already let him suck me off once..."

But I didn't get a chance to do what I really wanted, which was to suck Liam off while Kevin fucked him, because Kevin said, "Hang on, I'm gonna cum," and then came in Liam's ass.  "Sorry," he said after he finished.  "I couldn't hold off."

"That's okay sweetie," I said.  "Just means that Liam doesn't have to settle for a blowjob."

"You want us to leave you alone?" asked Liam, reaching back and wiping a little cum off on his finger, which he then licked clean.  Goddamn these boys are getting positively kinky.  I love it.  I worry when I'm not there, but when I'm in the moment, it's a rush.

"Yeah, I'm getting sleepy," said Kevin.

So Liam and I went to the big bedroom.  He and his mom sleep there pretty much every night, which is... maybe not the greatest thing in the world as far as her being able to let him go.  Speaking of people who probably should be looking for partners their own age... but that's a bridge to cross when we come to it.

I was in my work clothes, but they came off quickly, and I lay back and let Liam mount me immediately.  No foreplay necessary; I just needed cock.  I had been moist all evening anticipating.

He didn't last long, but his balls were probably swollen to the point of pain, and anyway I knew I was going to get another, more thorough going over as soon as he recovered.  God, feeling the torrents of jizz spurt into me was wonderful.  You just can't get that with a toy.  And being assfucked makes Liam's volume go through the roof, so it felt like gallons (although I'm sure it was just a teaspoon or two; physiology isn't magical).  It was forceful and wet and warm and it was delivered deep inside me.  No complaints.

He ate me out, licking up his own cum, which I also never get tired of, and then kept going until I was humming, the little twinges of pain easy enough to ignore.  No orgasm, not yet; I wanted him inside me if I was going to go off.

I sucked him hard again, easily; the boy gets hard at the drop of a hat.  Then he lay back and I rode him, giving his hands access to anything he wanted, tweaking nipples and stroking thighs.  Grinding down on him rubbed his pubic bone into my clit, and I was getting closer and closer until finally I wrapped myself around him, kissing him deeply, and ground out an orgasm.  It was rough and messy and at some point during the process he came too, but I didn't feel it because I was chasing the O.  Managed to draw it out to a decent length, for me these days anyway.

Then he fell asleep.  I was still on top of him, his cock and cum and all our mutual juices still slipping from my pussy, and he fell asleep.  I lay there on top of him and just felt warm and cuddled for a bit, but not the way I feel with Sveta or with Dad or Mike or some of my other lovers.  He's too young.  I don't feel safe in his arms.  That's okay; I'm not expecting it, and I don't feel unsafe, but the dynamic is different.  Maybe some day, when he gains some confidence, he'll be able to take a more dominant role, but right now that's not him.

But I wanted a dominant cuddle.  I wanted to be held and frankly I wanted to be told what to do, how to do it, not be the teacher.  I got a bit depressed and got off him and spent several hours not being able to sleep.

He woke up at a certain point and sleepily began stroking me, and I wasn't in the mood for it.  I shut him down.  I think it hurt his feelings a little, but he didn't complain, and he was half-asleep anyway.  I felt guilty about it, and when he woke up again I rolled to him and kissed him and let him convince me to have some groggy, middle-of-the-night sex, which was slow and in no danger of getting me off, but which I accepted because I still wanted him, even if I wanted him to be totally different.  Not the first time I've loved the one I'm with, and I'm sure it won't be the last.

In the morning, I hadn't really slept and he was bright-eyed and bushy tailed, so I basically told him he could do whatever he wanted as long as I didn't have to participate too actively.  What he wanted, I'm pleased to say, was to eat me out, pussy and asshole, for a heroic length of time, to the point where I wanted to stop him and tell him that he didn't have to worry so much about my pleasure.  But it worked.  It was a very nice way to wake up, and when he asked, almost shyly, "Lexi, do you mind if I stick it in your butt?" I laughed, got on my knees, and spread my cheeks to give him a good look.

God, assfucking with a cock... it's different than a toy.  I can't really explain how; obviously it's different, but it's different in a different way than toys and cocks in the pussy is.  It's slightly... easier, maybe?  It has more give than rubber?  I don't know, I just know that all the toys in the world wouldn't make me give up men.  Liam has a way to go to be the best lover; his technique is still fairly basic, mostly because he hasn't had enough different partners to show him all the different and magical ways a woman can be given pleasure.  It's mostly in and out, and he seems to forget about anything but thrusting when he gets closer.  But he's good for an amateur.  And I'm a forgiving lover, particularly with the young.

He came after a respectable period, then we went to get breakfast and make sure Kevin was awake.  He was; he had been up for longer than we had, and looked better-rested.  Liam didn't even ask; he just started sucking Kevin's cock, and then when they both were hard (insatiable, I swear, and I don't blame Kate for not being able to keep up with them) Liam asked, "Do you want to do a sandwich?"

"For breakfast?"  I was pretty sure what he meant, but I wanted to have a bit of fun.

"No.  Come on, don't be dumb.  I meant do you want me to fuck you and then Kevin can fuck me?"

"Do you do that with your mom?"

"Sometimes.  But not a lot.  It's really fun.  You should try it."  Kevin looked as enthusiastic as Liam.

Which is how I wound up on my back with two boys between my legs, Liam's cock inside me and twitching every time his brother thrust.  I even kissed Kevin, who didn't seem to mind, and my hands were on his butt as it pressed down into Liam.  It was indeed "really fun."  Kevin didn't last as long as Liam, but then it was his first of the day, and he contented himself with sticking his hand down between us and stroking Liam's balls as Liam sped up and then spent inside me.  And again, it was a delicious load, warm and strong.

Kate showed up after lunch to find Liam going at me again.  "Thank God, wear him out a little," she laughed.  She wanted me to stay, but I had to head back to work for another evening gig, so I cleaned up a little and then big my farewells.  I both wanted to stay and didn't.  I wanted to because I could keep getting fucked, but I didn't because I was still feeling that emptiness which had hit me overnight, and I also felt guilty for not having apologized to Liam for being short with him.  Also, I really just wanted to go home and go to sleep, because I was really tired at that point.  But instead I had to serve my time before I could do that, and then of course I couldn't sleep again.

TMI Tuesday

From the archives (seriously, go visit the TMI Tuesday blog because I am not trying to steal credit for anything but my answers, which were given to me on several golden plates by angels):

1. Do you prefer your lover:

a) fresh from the bath and perfumed?
b) fresh from the bath without perfume?
c) clean but not right from the tub or shower?
d) slightly sweaty (or musky)?

I don't like perfume very much, although some are better than others.  I'd say clean is good, either fresh from bathing or not.  I don't have a preference between B and C.

2. Do you maintain your body for sex with respect to facial hair, body hair, pubic hair, fingernails or toenails?

I maintain my body hair because I don't like stubble and I feel less feminine if I get hairy.  I know, I'm buying into the patriarchy, but there it is.  I also think smooth is sexy, so yeah, the body hair issue is probably at least somewhat sexual.  My pubes come and go as they please these days.  I used to be much more rigorous, but lately I trim more often than I shave.  That's largely for sexy reasons, but neatness feels more comfortable.  I'm obsessive about my nails, and they get both cleaned and clipped regularly.  There's a very, very small part of the fingernails which is a sex thing, because fingering people with ragged nails can get ugly, but mostly it's because I'm OCD, and I use that term advisedly.  I am not, "Oh, I'm such a neat freak, I must be OCD," OCD.  I am, "Imbalances in my brain chemistry coupled with psychological issues I don't understand make me obsessive about some things for no reason, even if I'm not as severely handicapped by it as some people," OCD.  Kids, please use "anal retentive" instead.  It's more fun to say and no one believes Freud any more so you're not crazy-shaming people.

3. Do you maintain/prepare according to your lover’s preferences?

Yes.  If I know what they are, I make accommodations.  I don't do anything a lover wants, but if Sveta for instance were to decide that she enjoyed a shaved pussy more and she expressed this preference to me, I would take it into account.  One night stands and unexpected lovin' don't get frills, although if someone wanted to wash before sexy times I would be okay with that.

4. Do you have body adornments such as piercings or tattoos for sexual reasons? Does your lover?

I don't have any piercings other than my ears, and I have no tattoos.  I've never been hardcore enough.  As for "my lover," which one?  The tattoos and piercings I've been with over the years have never been explicitly stated for sexual reasons, although clit piercings have got to be at least partially for that, right?  No, I don't know, really.  Sheri has a pierced clit, had a pierced tongue for a while before she got sick of it and let it grow closed, and has tattoos, at least one of which she received in exchange for a long session of butt-fucking, although I don't know if the tattoo itself was for sexual reasons, just the payment was in kind.

5. Do you choose any cosmetics, lubes, condoms or other sexually relevant items according to how they taste? Do you not use them because of the taste?

I'm not in love with Astroglide as a taste.  I don't usually go in for flavors except as a lark.  Basically, I don't lube for just giving head, and if I give head to someone who has been lubed, I don't care about the taste unless it's horrible, which I've not run into.  Most modern lubes don't taste or smell like much of anything to me.  I don't like the taste of latex, so I've never been into dental dams, but I'll grin and bear it and the taste goes away after a bit anyway.

6. Is there a taste or aroma that turns you on or that you can use to turn on your lover?

Me?  I like all kinds of tastes and smells.  The smell of a clean, aroused cunt is very much a turn-on, as is a bit of manly musk (not funk, understand, just that smell that you sometimes get off a guy who's ready to go).  Baby powder turns me on.  That's the strangest one, I think.  Everything else is pretty much either obvious or isn't an automatic turn-on and depends on context.

As far as lovers, the sky's the limit.  I've had lovers be turned on by all sorts of smells.  I once fucked a guy who was a fart-lover, but he was suitably shy about it and only broached the subject after he was fucking my ass and natural things happened. Yes, girls will fart if you fuck them in the ass.  Sorry to bust your bubble.

He didn't just pull out and start sniffing, but when I apologized (because it's natural but still a little embarrassing) he said he didn't mind and actually... well, he liked it.  And he was a decent guy, and I don't judge people's turn-ons if they're honest about them and they're not hurting anyone, so I said I'd be happy to try to make the magic happen again.  He looked like I was giving him Christmas and a birthday all rolled into one.  I guess he was used to being judged.  Hell, he looked thrilled that I didn't kick him out right then and there and asked him about it.

And I admit, while I don't want to smell my own or anyone else's farts in a sexual or other context, I got into it a little.  I spread my ass open and told him to stick his nose right up against my asshole, and then I tried to summon a fart without also accidentally summoning anything else.  Which was harder to do that you'd think.  Finally though, I managed one, and he inhaled it like it was a fine wine, and then grabbed my hips and pressed his nose into my ass forcefully.  He begged me for one more, and after the first the second was easier.  After he inhaled it all, he hopped up and vigorously pounded my ass until more little squeaks were coming unbidden (a sex-fart, like a queef, doesn't smell much and is really just trapped air being pushed out) and then finally unloaded in my ass, then rolled me over and ate out my pussy and ass at the same time until I was cumming like crazy.  All in all, totally worth indulging his fetish.

Bonus: Do you prepare a room for sex–mood music, candles, scent, cleaning it or anything? Tell us about it.

Depends.  If it's a special occasion, sure, I'll prepare, although it's not always the same prep and it's not always those items.  When I've been in a long-term relationship with a man, he's usually the one who does that kind of prep because I enjoy being pampered a little, I confess.  But I'll set the scene for others too.  I don't have a go-to; it's organic and based on what the occasion is or what I have available.  I've never done the romantic movie cliche of strewing rose petals all over the bed because that's in romantic movies for a reason: they don't have to worry about staining the sheets with crushed rose essence.  If you're going to do that, do it in a bathtub (and then make sure the bathtub is big enough to do what you have planned, because most of them aren't).  But I'll certainly light a candle, lower the lights, and lie there naked and waiting for when Sveta gets home.
