Natalie: Office Party. Natalie goes to a work party, and hooks up with a hot guy. by Traumseele. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. The office kitchen was somewhat cramped. A wall of microwaves, a couple of fridges, and a counter with two sinks was meant to satisfy the luncheon needs of the two-hundred-odd people who worked at this branch of Rodow-Mills Ltd., the corporation for which Natalie worked in purchasing. She was sat a round table, eating out of a box of noodles she had gotten from a takeout place in the neighborhood. “Are you gonna wear that tonight?”The question came from the short-haired woman seated next to Natalie. Lynn, her best girl friend and confidant at work since a long time back. There wasn't that much contrast between the two, they were very much alike in both looks and manners. Women of medium height, with dark brown hair and eyes, dressed in “business casual” which meant jeans, a blouse, and black leather ankle boots. The main difference between them was in their hair, Natalie's was curly and shoulder-length, while Lynn always kept it short and straight. Lynn also lacked Natalie's prominent breasts, being almost flat chested, something she was sure was a common conversation topic among the guys at work. “Why not?” Natalie responded. “It's an office party. Not like I have any new impressions to make.” It was true. Her job was fairly routine. She knew everybody in her department, and everyone worth knowing outside of it. “Unless you want me to slut up for a night on the town afterwards?” Lynn giggled. “I'm just teasing. You look great as always, Nat.” The short-haired woman took a sip of water from her glass. “I'm just thinking about… you know. I kind of want to hook up with somebody. I haven't done that at work before. Feels like something I should cross off my list at some point, if I had one I mean.” She took another sip. “Don't get me wrong but you're a lot more experienced here than I am. Got any beginner tips?” At first, Natalie felt a bit weirded out by that last comment, but then she realized that Lynn would never judge her for being a “slut” at work, and probably just wanted in on the action. She gave her friend a coy, thoughtful smile. “I don't really know what to say that, Lynn!” she responded with a hearty laugh. Her friend kept sipping water. She seemed nervous, for some mysterious reason. “Come on. You know it's true. I want to be just like you, Nat!” The last bit came out with a heavy dose of sarcasm. “Let's just enjoy the free booze and try to avoid the annoying people. You're gonna be fine. Besides, if one of these polo-wearing golfer guys were to try to steal you away from me, I would probably have to beat him up,” Natalie responded half-jokingly. Lynn was a real cutie, but Natalie just wasn't into women in that way, even though she would often masturbate to them. That was different though, women were just sexier than men. Didn't mean she was gay, not that she had any problem with that. The rest of the working day before the party went by as usual. Natalie sat in her cubicle, sending out purchasing emails and handing invoices over to payments. But mostly, she was just trying to pass time and look busy whenever somebody walked past. She had been to plenty of office parties, at this job and previous ones, and these things just didn't make her nervous anymore. She felt like she could already predict all that was going to happen that night. Free drinks, some speeches from upper management, maybe a forced “team building” activity or two, but most importantly, free drinks. Her friend's comment about her slutty work habits had bothered her a bit. Not because Lynn thought her to be a slut, she knew that she did and that was great, but rather quite the opposite. In truth, she hadn't really been hooking up with any co-workers lately. That was a frequent activity in her mid twenties, but in recent years, the dull routine and general feeling of alienation at the office had pretty much turned off her sexuality completely in that environment. Maybe it was time to live up to her friend's image of her? Not only was it a matter of principle, the prospect was also kind of exciting to her despite where she was at the moment, trapped in a grey cubicle. “Hey Nat, they got a new coffee maker downstairs. You have just got to check it out!” The cheerful voice was Diego, a tall, skinny, good-natured man with short black hair, olive skin, and a constant worried look in his eyes. He had appeared at the entrance to Natalie's cubicle to share some minor news about the office, as he often did. It was a welcome break to the dullness of the average day, she thought. Diego was a nice guy, always happy and helpful, and the two of them had formed a bit of a workplace bond over the last couple of years. Doing small favors for each other here and there, spending breaks together, having coffee. “You know what? I might just do exactly that. Wanna come?” she responded, and Diego's face lit up. She whisked her mug off of her desk, and got up from her chair onto her leather booted feet. Their 2-inch heels made barely any noise as the two of them walked across the wall-to-wall carpet that covered the floor of the cubicle farm, heading for the stairwell. “So… How are things?” Natalie didn't have to specify the “things” she was asking him about. It was a bit of a sensitive topic, so she didn't want to bring it up too directly. Diego had recently gone through a divorce, and was now adjusting to life as a bachelor again. It was difficult, as he had been married for a long time, and his meek, super-nice-guy manners weren't especially suited for living it up as a single in the city, she thought. Nevertheless, the divorce hadn't changed him much, at least not on the surface. He continued to be nice and cheerful, always notifying Natalie of “exciting” new happenings around the office, but she could tell it was bothering him. “Oh you know… Getting used to it. Got everything set up in my new apartment. It's a real bachelor pad, haha. Hey, there's the new coffee maker.” He didn't seem to enjoy the subject matter very much, so Natalie decided not to bring it up again, for now. As Diego had pointed out, they had arrived at the awesome new coffee maker in the downstairs break room. There was nothing special about it at all, as far as Natalie could tell. There was a holder for your mug, and the usual array of buttons for selecting the type of coffee you wanted the thing to fill it up with. It didn't really matter. A cup of coffee with Diego in the break room was always a nice and welcome distraction. They both knew that the “new coffee machine” was just an excuse to spend some idle minutes together, getting away from the daily grind. And so they filled up their cups, and took seats at a small round table. “Looking forward to the party?” Natalie asked, half-sarcastically. Diego was as much a fan of mandatory corporate fun as anybody else, she knew, and he especially didn't like big booze-fuelled parties. They made him feel anxious, he had confided in her once. “You know me,” he responded casually, taking a big sip of coffee. “I'm the party animal around here.” He put the cup down with a somewhat dejected smile, as if part of him wished for that statement to be true. “I'll stick around for a drink, make sure management notices my attendance, and then sneak out at my first opportunity before things get too rowdy. Got plenty of things to set up in my new place, anyway.” Diego looked wistful, and Natalie felt pity for him. It got worse when he tried to cover up his anxiety with a forced smile. Maybe she could convince him to stay, even help him find somebody to hook up with? Lynn was certainly in the mood, but Natalie had no idea whether he was her type or not. She didn't really know anything about her dating history, though Lynn knew all about hers, somehow. Besides, convincing him to stay at a loud, booze-drenched office party would be about as easy as convincing water to stop being wet. She dismissed the idea. A few hours later, the party kicked off. Most off the staff had gathered in the lobby for an exciting speech about the branch's promising future by their local chief of operations, and Natalie was already tipsy from the welcome drink. Something fruity, with booze in it. She didn't bother to find out more details. A delivery driver had dropped off boxes of pizzas and assorted snacks, which had been opened and left on a counter. A transparent fridge had been stocked to the brim with bottles of beer and wine, and a makeshift “bar” had been set up in the corner of the lobby for mixing cocktails. There, one could find the usual assortment of rum, gin, vodka, various mixers, and more. It would be her next stop when the speech was over, Natalie decided. When the half-hearted applause died down and the music started, she made her way over to the cocktail bar. There was no use being sober at an occasion like this one, so it was time to get herself a gin & tonic, or something equally strong. A small group of people with the same idea had gathered nearby. Thankfully, Lynn was also there, and so Natalie snuck up on her and embraced her from behind. “Hey there sexy,” she said, jokingly imitating a deep, masculine voice, as her arms wrapped around Lynn from behind, meeting just below her chest. Lucky girl, she never had to wear a bra, Natalie thought, as her own breasts burrowed themselves into her girl friend's back. A startled Lynn let out an exhasperated sigh, grabbing on to Natalie's arms as if to tear them off of her, but stopping right as her fingers grasped around them, holding them in place. “Oh hi there,” she responded, turning her head to give Natalie a playful peck on the cheek, after which she wrestled herself free. “Booze?” she asked. “Booze,” Natalie replied matter-of-factly. The two friends walked up to the bar, picking out a couple of sizeable plastic cups, and filled them both up with gin and tonic. Getting too sloshed too early at an office party was always a bad idea, so they kept the gin-to-tonic ratio low enough to still give them a decent buzz. “Talked to any hot guys yet?” Lynn asked eagerly. “Not yet… Need to get in the mood first. This office has a habit of drying me up like a desert down there.” Lynn giggled. “I know what you mean.” She took a big sip of her drink. “Unless you have any leads for me?” Natalie asked her friend, who got a strained look on her cute little face. “Yeah right. That means I won't get you all to myself,” she responded jokingly, with a flirtatious raising of her eyebrows. Her friend seemed to blush after that. “Shit Nat, I gotta go powder my nose. I'll find you in a bit,” Lynn said, and scurried off. Knowing the habits of some of her co-workers, “powder my nose” could be meant both literally and figuratively. Natalie walked around the office idly for a bit, stopping for small talk here and there, getting a glass of wine from the lobby, trying to figure out some kind of game plan. The booze did a good job at staving off the worst oh her anxiety, not to mention the general weird atmosphere of “forced fun” that office parties tended to have. Still, she found it difficult to loosen up, and seemed to have lost track of Lynn's whereabouts. She found her friend just outside the main entrance to the building, where people would go for fresh air, and others would go to ruin their experience with cigarette smoke. Natalie was not a fan of tobacco, and thankfully, her friend was in the former group. “Hey Nat! Come here! This is uh… Well, shit.” Her friend seemed to have forgotten the name of the handsome man standing next to her, whose presence Natalie had just noticed. He was about an inch taller than her in her boots, his head topped by slick dark brown hair, and a thin beard that accentuated his chiseled facial features. His broad shoulders were clad in a modest black dress shirt, and on his legs he was wearing a pair of jeans and black leather loafers. The man smiled, his face lighting up as he extended his right arm, inviting Natalie to a handshake. “I'm Konstantin. You must be Natalie I presume? Lynn here won't stop talking about you!” “Oh, it's all true,” she said with a laugh as she shook his hand. “Nice to meet you, Konstantin.” He was so hot. Natalie normally liked her men to be a few inches taller, but there was something about the way their eyes met almost level as he gave her his bright smile, full of confidence. His handshake had been gentle, almost romantic somehow. Natalie could feel herself starting to melt a bit. Well done, Lynn. The three of them made some small talk out in the fresh evening air, with drinks in their hands. Konstantin worked in sales, and was often out on client calls, which was probably why they hadn't met at work before. After a little while, Lynn excused herself and went inside, leaving the two of them alone in the midst of small groups of chattering, drunk coworkers. Natalie found herself at a loss for words. It wasn't typical of her. This hot guy was just beaming with confidence, something she would usually try to take down a notch or two, but he was so nice and considerate at the same time. He was filling in all the silences with questions about Natalie, seeming genuinely curious about her, and she answered as well as she could with brief statements while she tried to think of what to do next. “Do you dance?” she asked somewhat awkwardly, as the music inside got louder. “Love to!” Konstantin responded, still smiling. “Shall we?” The floor of the lobby had been cleared up, and the “office DJ” was running some tacky playlist on her laptop. It didn't matter so much. Natalie had two left feet when it came to dancing, and tried to focus on not making a fool out of herself as she tried to make subtle rhythmic moves. Konstantin seemed like a fish in water on the dancefloor. He didn't do anything extravagant, simply moving his body to the music as if it was second nature to him, constantly beaming with that hot smile of his. As the night went on, the dancefloor got more crowded, and Natalie got tipsier. She and Konstantin had been moving closer to each other the whole time, and by now, they were just inches away from each other. Anyone who glanced their way could see what was going on, but Natalie didn't care. People hooked up in the office all the time, and it's not like she had some virtuous reputation to maintain. She put her arm around his neck and leaned forward to whisper in his ear. “Let's get out of here. My place isn't far.” Over Konstantin's shoulder, she could see Lynn standing in the corner of the Lobby, nursing her drink. Natalie felt a little bit guilty about ditching her friend, but the look of approval on Lynn's face eased her worries. She leaned back, raising her eyebrows and looking into Konstantin's light brown eyes with intent. He was biting his lip. His hand found hers, and they walked outside. The air was electric as the pair stood in Natalie's dark apartment hallway. Natalie had just closed the door behind them, and was staring at Konstantin's silhouette as he took off his shoes, letting the outline of his hard body become clearer as her own eyes adjutsed to the lack of lighting. She pulled off her own boots, and stood on the floor in her ankle socks, anticipating this man's next move. It came suddenly. With force, he lifted her arms above her head, pressing them against the wall and kissing her passionately. She let out a surprised but excited moan, and tried to grab his head before realizing that her arms were trapped. He let go of her arms and let his ands explore her body all over, clumsily finding their way under her tucked-in blouse, caressing her naked body underneath all the way up to her bra-covered breasts. He squeezed them and dug his fingers under the fabric, trying to find her no doubt rock hard nipples. Natalie kept her arms above her head in the dark hallway, letting Konstantin explore her body at his leisure. He was pressed up against her, hard, grinding away. The bulge between his legs rubbed against her clit through layers of jeans and underwear, but it was enough to make her want more. She wanted him inside of her, badly now. Right then, Konstantin stopped, and took a step back. Natalie felt very confused. Was he teasing her? She wouldn't have any of that, not tonight. Flustered, she groped the wall, searching for the light switch. Her dark eyes squinted as light flooded the previously dark apartment. Konstantin stood before her, his face glistening with sweat and saliva from their sloppy kisses. He was sucking his lower lip in, hard, while giving her a puzzled look. What was he doing? “Natalie I… I have kind of a thing I want to do with you, if you don't mind,” he said after hesitating for many long seconds. The thing had better be to fuck her silly until she passed out from orgasmic pleasure, she thought, giving him a sly and expectant look. A nervous look washed over his face, as he continued hesitating. Natalie stepped forward, grabbing Konstantin by the hairs at the back of his head gently. She licked her lips and said, “tell me what you want to do to me,” hoping that the command would dispel his nervousness and hesitation. “I… You're so hot,” he said, pausing for another few seconds, caressing the side of Natalie's body up and down. “I'm going to cum in literal seconds if we fuck. Never been good at lasting long. So… I want to do that. I want to cum inside of you, and then eat my cum out of your pussy. It's… kind of my fetish.” Natalie interrupted him with another sloppy kiss before he could get too lost in his own thoughts. She had never tried that before, and at the moment, she was hot and horny enough to try just about anything. As long as it meant getting some dick in her. She unzipped his pants and dug his throbbing member out of his boxers. It wasn't the biggest one she'd ever held, but it was firm and already leaking precum. Her pussy was screaming to be filled up, so she unzipped her own jeans, and resumed her previous position, back against the wall with her hands above her head. Konstantin didn't seem to need any further approval. Within a second, he was back to ravishing her, kissing her neck, hands going all over the place. Her blouse became unbuttoned, and her bra unclasped, while her pants and wet panties slid down to her ankles. She moaned and reached down for his erect cock, jerking it faster and faster. He put one of his legs in between hers, spreading them apart as far as the elasticity of the pants around her ankles would allow for. They shared another sloppy kiss, tongues twirling around each other, as his cock slid easily up and all the way into Natalie's eager, dripping wet pussy. She could feel it bottom as her throbbing clit pressed against his hard pelvis, tickled by his recently trimmed pubic hairs. With his hands firmly grabbing her hips, Konstantin started fucking her, making sure her pussy got to feel the whole length of his cock, as he slammed hard against her clit with each thrust. Natalie gasped continuously, mimicking the rhythm of his thrusts. Their foreheads were touching, and they made intense eye contact. As he had promised, Konstantin's orgasm came quickly, after ten or so thrusts. His face scrunched up, and he grunted loudly, as his throbbing cock spilled load after load of hot cum into Natalie's pussy. She instinctively felt a bit disappointed, as she usually did when her partner came well before she was anywhere close herself. But then, she remembered the rest of his promise, and waited excitedly for his orgasm to subside. When it did, he pulled his dick out out of her, carefully replacing it with a hand, making sure to not let his seed spill out of her too much. Some of it was already dripping down her naked legs. She was a proper mess. Teary eyed, and with saliva glistening around her mouth. Her blouse was fully unbuttoned, and her unclasped bra was hanging around her neck like an albatross from an old poem. Konstantin's face was beaming. This was clearly his favorite part. Natalie didn't bother adjusting anything about herself in her current state. She simply kicked her pants and panties to the side, strode on sock-clad feet into the living room, blouse and bra still clinging to her upper body, and lied down with her back half on the couch, legs spread as wide as she could manage, a hand holding the hot cum inside her pussy. She motioned for Konstantin to get down between her legs and get to work, as he had promised. He wasted no time. Within seconds, he was on his knees between her glistening legs, lapping away at Natalie's cum drenched pussy with his eager tongue, making sure not to waste a drop of his own cum or her plentiful juices that it had mixed with. “Oh fuck,” Natalie exclaimed without even thinking. This was so hot. Maybe she should make all guys clean her out like this if they wanted to cum inside her? She finally knew why guys liked to put their fingers in her mouth after rubbing her pussy. Konstantin was, if possible, enjoying himself even more than she was. He was going wild, moaning and grunting, kissing the inside of her thighs and leaving big hickeys when he wasn't pressing his tongue between her pussy lips, making sure not to miss a single drop. With the way Natalie's juices were flowing, he would never be finished. That was fine, she could do this all night. She was pinching and tweaking her nipples hard, moaning like the slut she loved to be, when she almost passed out from a jolt of pleasure emanating from her clit. Konstantin had sucked it into his mouth like a vacuum, and was skilfully flicking his tongue against it in just the right rhythm. Natalie lost her breath as she started squirming, her body contorting on its own, legs wrapping around Konstantin's neck to force his face into her. Her thighs were pressed together so tightly that she was sure that he was suffocating, but that was a price she was willing to pay. The orgasm washed over her like a tsunami. It was so intense. Her thighs squeezed up so hard that she was scared of accidentally killing Konstantin. Waves of pleasure conquered her body as she lost control. She squirmed around, starting to glide off the couch as her juices flowed, giving Konstantin more and more cum, even though it wasn't his own. She came to, lying on the floor, a naked, quivering mess. Above her was the hot guy from the office party. His face was beaming again, almost looking proud of what he had done. by Traumseele for Literotica.

The man smiled, his face lighting up as he extended his right arm, inviting Natalie to a handshake. “I'm Konstantin. You must be Natalie I presume? Lynn here won't stop talking about you!” “Oh, it's all true,” she said with a laugh as she shook his hand. “Nice to meet you, Konstantin.” He was so hot. Natalie normally liked her men to be a few inches taller, but there was something about the way their eyes met almost level as he gave her his bright smile, full of confidence. His handshake had been gentle, almost romantic somehow. Natalie could feel herself starting to melt a bit. Well done, Lynn. The three of them made some small talk out in the fresh evening air, with drinks in their hands. Konstantin worked in sales, and was often out on client calls, which was probably why they hadn't met at work before. After a little while, Lynn excused herself and went inside, leaving the two of them alone in the midst of small groups of chattering, drunk coworkers. Natalie found herself at a loss for words. It wasn't typical of her. This hot guy was just beaming with confidence, something she would usually try to take down a notch or two, but he was so nice and considerate at the same time. He was filling in all the silences with questions about Natalie, seeming genuinely curious about her, and she answered as well as she could with brief statements while she tried to think of what to do next. “Do you dance?” she asked somewhat awkwardly, as the music inside got louder. “Love to!” Konstantin responded, still smiling. “Shall we?” The floor of the lobby had been cleared up, and the “office DJ” was running some tacky playlist on her laptop. It didn't matter so much. Natalie had two left feet when it came to dancing, and tried to focus on not making a fool out of herself as she tried to make subtle rhythmic moves. Konstantin seemed like a fish in water on the dancefloor. He didn't do anything extravagant, simply moving his body to the music as if it was second nature to him, constantly beaming with that hot smile of his. As the night went on, the dancefloor got more crowded, and Natalie got tipsier. She and Konstantin had been moving closer to each other the whole time, and by now, they were just inches away from each other. Anyone who glanced their way could see what was going on, but Natalie didn't care. People hooked up in the office all the time, and it's not like she had some virtuous reputation to maintain. She put her arm around his neck and leaned forward to whisper in his ear. “Let's get out of here. My place isn't far.” Over Konstantin's shoulder, she could see Lynn standing in the corner of the Lobby, nursing her drink. Natalie felt a little bit guilty about ditching her friend, but the look of approval on Lynn's face eased her worries. She leaned back, raising her eyebrows and looking into Konstantin's light brown eyes with intent. He was biting his lip. His hand found hers, and they walked outside. The air was electric as the pair stood in Natalie's dark apartment hallway. Natalie had just closed the door behind them, and was staring at Konstantin's silhouette as he took off his shoes, letting the outline of his hard body become clearer as her own eyes adjutsed to the lack of lighting. She pulled off her own boots, and stood on the floor in her ankle socks, anticipating this man's next move. It came suddenly. With force, he lifted her arms above her head, pressing them against the wall and kissing her passionately. She let out a surprised but excited moan, and tried to grab his head before realizing that her arms were trapped. He let go of her arms and let his ands explore her body all over, clumsily finding their way under her tucked-in blouse, caressing her naked body underneath all the way up to her bra-covered breasts. He squeezed them and dug his fingers under the fabric, trying to find her no doubt rock hard nipples. Natalie kept her arms above her head in the dark hallway, letting Konstantin explore her body at his leisure. He was pressed up against her, hard, grinding away. The bulge between his legs rubbed against her clit through layers of jeans and underwear, but it was enough to make her want more. She wanted him inside of her, badly now. Right then, Konstantin stopped, and took a step back. Natalie felt very confused. Was he teasing her? She wouldn't have any of that, not tonight. Flustered, she groped the wall, searching for the light switch. Her dark eyes squinted as light flooded the previously dark apartment. Konstantin stood before her, his face glistening with sweat and saliva from their sloppy kisses. He was sucking his lower lip in, hard, while giving her a puzzled look. What was he doing? “Natalie I… I have kind of a thing I want to do with you, if you don't mind,” he said after hesitating for many long seconds. The thing had better be to fuck her silly until she passed out from orgasmic pleasure, she thought, giving him a sly and expectant look. A nervous look washed over his face, as he continued hesitating. Natalie stepped forward, grabbing Konstantin by the hairs at the back of his head gently. She licked her lips and said, “tell me what you want to do to me,” hoping that the command would dispel his nervousness and hesitation. “I… You're so hot,” he said, pausing for another few seconds, caressing the side of Natalie's body up and down. “I'm going to cum in literal seconds if we fuck. Never been good at lasting long. So… I want to do that. I want to cum inside of you, and then eat my cum out of your pussy. It's… kind of my fetish.” Natalie interrupted him with another sloppy kiss before he could get too lost in his own thoughts. She had never tried that before, and at the moment, she was hot and horny enough to try just about anything. As long as it meant getting some dick in her. She unzipped his pants and dug his throbbing member out of his boxers. It wasn't the biggest one she'd ever held, but it was firm and already leaking precum. Her pussy was screaming to be filled up, so she unzipped her own jeans, and resumed her previous position, back against the wall with her hands above her head. Konstantin didn't seem to need any further approval. Within a second, he was back to ravishing her, kissing her neck, hands going all over the place. Her blouse became unbuttoned, and her bra unclasped, while her pants and wet panties slid down to her ankles. She moaned and reached down for his erect cock, jerking it faster and faster. He put one of his legs in between hers, spreading them apart as far as the elasticity of the pants around her ankles would allow for. They shared another sloppy kiss, tongues twirling around each other, as his cock slid easily up and all the way into Natalie's eager, dripping wet pussy. She could feel it bottom as her throbbing clit pressed against his hard pelvis, tickled by his recently trimmed pubic hairs. With his hands firmly grabbing her hips, Konstantin started fucking her, making sure her pussy got to feel the whole length of his cock, as he slammed hard against her clit with each thrust. Natalie gasped continuously, mimicking the rhythm of his thrusts. Their foreheads were touching, and they made intense eye contact. As he had promised, Konstantin's orgasm came quickly, after ten or so thrusts. His face scrunched up, and he grunted loudly, as his throbbing cock spilled load after load of hot cum into Natalie's pussy. She instinctively felt a bit disappointed, as she usually did when her partner came well before she was anywhere close herself. But then, she remembered the rest of his promise, and waited excitedly for his orgasm to subside. When it did, he pulled his dick out out of her, carefully replacing it with a hand, making sure to not let his seed spill out of her too much. Some of it was already dripping down her naked legs. She was a proper mess. Teary eyed, and with saliva glistening around her mouth. Her blouse was fully unbuttoned, and her unclasped bra was hanging around her neck like an albatross from an old poem. Konstantin's face was beaming. This was clearly his favorite part. Natalie didn't bother adjusting anything about herself in her current state. She simply kicked her pants and panties to the side, strode on sock-clad feet into the living room, blouse and bra still clinging to her upper body, and lied down with her back half on the couch, legs spread as wide as she could manage, a hand holding the hot cum inside her pussy. She motioned for Konstantin to get down between her legs and get to work, as he had promised. He wasted no time. Within seconds, he was on his knees between her glistening legs, lapping away at Natalie's cum drenched pussy with his eager tongue, making sure not to waste a drop of his own cum or her plentiful juices that it had mixed with. “Oh fuck,” Natalie exclaimed without even thinking. This was so hot. Maybe she should make all guys clean her out like this if they wanted to cum inside her? She finally knew why guys liked to put their fingers in her mouth after rubbing her pussy. Konstantin was, if possible, enjoying himself even more than she was. He was going wild, moaning and grunting, kissing the inside of her thighs and leaving big hickeys when he wasn't pressing his tongue between her pussy lips, making sure not to miss a single drop. With the way Natalie's juices were flowing, he would never be finished. That was fine, she could do this all night. She was pinching and tweaking her nipples hard, moaning like the slut she loved to be, when she almost passed out from a jolt of pleasure emanating from her clit. Konstantin had sucked it into his mouth like a vacuum, and was skilfully flicking his tongue against it in just the right rhythm. Natalie lost her breath as she started squirming, her body contorting on its own, legs wrapping around Konstantin's neck to force his face into her. Her thighs were pressed together so tightly that she was sure that he was suffocating, but that was a price she was willing to pay. The orgasm washed over her like a tsunami. It was so intense. Her thighs squeezed up so hard that she was scared of accidentally killing Konstantin. Waves of pleasure conquered her body as she lost control. She squirmed around, starting to glide off the couch as her juices flowed, giving Konstantin more and more cum, even though it wasn't his own. She came to, lying on the floor, a naked, quivering mess. Above her was the hot guy from the office party. His face was beaming again, almost looking proud of what he had done. by Traumseele for Literotica.

Natalie: Office Party. Natalie goes to a work party, and hooks up with a hot guy.by Traumseele. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories.The office kitchen was somewhat cramped. A wall of microwaves, a couple of fridges, and a counter with two sinks was meant to satisfy the luncheon needs of the two-hundred-odd people who worked at this branch of Rodow-Mills Ltd., the corporation for which Natalie worked in purchasing. She was sat a round table, eating out of a box of noodles she had gotten from a takeout place in the neighborhood.“Are you gonna wear that tonight?”The question came from the short-haired woman seated next to Natalie. Lynn, her best girl friend and confidant at work since a long time back. There wasn't that much contrast between the two, they were very much alike in both looks and manners. Women of medium height, with dark brown hair and eyes, dressed in “business casual” which meant jeans, a blouse, and black leather ankle boots. The main difference between them was in their hair, Natalie's was curly and shoulder-length, while Lynn always kept it short and straight. Lynn also lacked Natalie's prominent breasts, being almost flat chested, something she was sure was a common conversation topic among the guys at work.“Why not?” Natalie responded. “It's an office party. Not like I have any new impressions to make.” It was true. Her job was fairly routine. She knew everybody in her department, and everyone worth knowing outside of it. “Unless you want me to slut up for a night on the town afterwards?”Lynn giggled. “I'm just teasing. You look great as always, Nat.” The short-haired woman took a sip of water from her glass. “I'm just thinking about… you know. I kind of want to hook up with somebody. I haven't done that at work before. Feels like something I should cross off my list at some point, if I had one I mean.” She took another sip. “Don't get me wrong but you're a lot more experienced here than I am. Got any beginner tips?”At first, Natalie felt a bit weirded out by that last comment, but then she realized that Lynn would never judge her for being a “slut” at work, and probably just wanted in on the action. She gave her friend a coy, thoughtful smile. “I don't really know what to say that, Lynn!” she responded with a hearty laugh.Her friend kept sipping water. She seemed nervous, for some mysterious reason. “Come on. You know it's true. I want to be just like you, Nat!” The last bit came out with a heavy dose of sarcasm.“Let's just enjoy the free booze and try to avoid the annoying people. You're gonna be fine. Besides, if one of these polo-wearing golfer guys were to try to steal you away from me, I would probably have to beat him up,” Natalie responded half-jokingly. Lynn was a real cutie, but Natalie just wasn't into women in that way, even though she would often masturbate to them. That was different though, women were just sexier than men. Didn't mean she was gay, not that she had any problem with that.The rest of the working day before the party went by as usual. Natalie sat in her cubicle, sending out purchasing emails and handing invoices over to payments. But mostly, she was just trying to pass time and look busy whenever somebody walked past. She had been to plenty of office parties, at this job and previous ones, and these things just didn't make her nervous anymore. She felt like she could already predict all that was going to happen that night. Free drinks, some speeches from upper management, maybe a forced “team building” activity or two, but most importantly, free drinks.Her friend's comment about her slutty work habits had bothered her a bit. Not because Lynn thought her to be a slut, she knew that she did and that was great, but rather quite the opposite. In truth, she hadn't really been hooking up with any co-workers lately. That was a frequent activity in her mid twenties, but in recent years, the dull routine and general feeling of alienation at the office had pretty much turned off her sexuality completely in that environment. Maybe it was time to live up to her friend's image of her? Not only was it a matter of principle, the prospect was also kind of exciting to her despite where she was at the moment, trapped in a grey cubicle.“Hey Nat, they got a new coffee maker downstairs. You have just got to check it out!”The cheerful voice was Diego, a tall, skinny, good-natured man with short black hair, olive skin, and a constant worried look in his eyes. He had appeared at the entrance to Natalie's cubicle to share some minor news about the office, as he often did. It was a welcome break to the dullness of the average day, she thought. Diego was a nice guy, always happy and helpful, and the two of them had formed a bit of a workplace bond over the last couple of years. Doing small favors for each other here and there, spending breaks together, having coffee.“You know what? I might just do exactly that. Wanna come?” she responded, and Diego's face lit up. She whisked her mug off of her desk, and got up from her chair onto her leather booted feet. Their 2-inch heels made barely any noise as the two of them walked across the wall-to-wall carpet that covered the floor of the cubicle farm, heading for the stairwell.“So… How are things?” Natalie didn't have to specify the “things” she was asking him about. It was a bit of a sensitive topic, so she didn't want to bring it up too directly. Diego had recently gone through a divorce, and was now adjusting to life as a bachelor again. It was difficult, as he had been married for a long time, and his meek, super-nice-guy manners weren't especially suited for living it up as a single in the city, she thought. Nevertheless, the divorce hadn't changed him much, at least not on the surface. He continued to be nice and cheerful, always notifying Natalie of “exciting” new happenings around the office, but she could tell it was bothering him.“Oh you know… Getting used to it. Got everything set up in my new apartment. It's a real bachelor pad, haha. Hey, there's the new coffee maker.” He didn't seem to enjoy the subject matter very much, so Natalie decided not to bring it up again, for now.As Diego had pointed out, they had arrived at the awesome new coffee maker in the downstairs break room. There was nothing special about it at all, as far as Natalie could tell. There was a holder for your mug, and the usual array of buttons for selecting the type of coffee you wanted the thing to fill it up with. It didn't really matter. A cup of coffee with Diego in the break room was always a nice and welcome distraction. They both knew that the “new coffee machine” was just an excuse to spend some idle minutes together, getting away from the daily grind. And so they filled up their cups, and took seats at a small round table.“Looking forward to the party?” Natalie asked, half-sarcastically. Diego was as much a fan of mandatory corporate fun as anybody else, she knew, and he especially didn't like big booze-fuelled parties. They made him feel anxious, he had confided in her once.“You know me,” he responded casually, taking a big sip of coffee. “I'm the party animal around here.” He put the cup down with a somewhat dejected smile, as if part of him wished for that statement to be true. “I'll stick around for a drink, make sure management notices my attendance, and then sneak out at my first opportunity before things get too rowdy. Got plenty of things to set up in my new place, anyway.”Diego looked wistful, and Natalie felt pity for him. It got worse when he tried to cover up his anxiety with a forced smile. Maybe she could convince him to stay, even help him find somebody to hook up with? Lynn was certainly in the mood, but Natalie had no idea whether he was her type or not. She didn't really know anything about her dating history, though Lynn knew all about hers, somehow. Besides, convincing him to stay at a loud, booze-drenched office party would be about as easy as convincing water to stop being wet. She dismissed the idea.A few hours later, the party kicked off. Most off the staff had gathered in the lobby for an exciting speech about the branch's promising future by their local chief of operations, and Natalie was already tipsy from the welcome drink. Something fruity, with booze in it. She didn't bother to find out more details.A delivery driver had dropped off boxes of pizzas and assorted snacks, which had been opened and left on a counter. A transparent fridge had been stocked to the brim with bottles of beer and wine, and a makeshift “bar” had been set up in the corner of the lobby for mixing cocktails. There, one could find the usual assortment of rum, gin, vodka, various mixers, and more. It would be her next stop when the speech was over, Natalie decided.When the half-hearted applause died down and the music started, she made her way over to the cocktail bar. There was no use being sober at an occasion like this one, so it was time to get herself a gin & tonic, or something equally strong. A small group of people with the same idea had gathered nearby. Thankfully, Lynn was also there, and so Natalie snuck up on her and embraced her from behind.“Hey there sexy,” she said, jokingly imitating a deep, masculine voice, as her arms wrapped around Lynn from behind, meeting just below her chest. Lucky girl, she never had to wear a bra, Natalie thought, as her own breasts burrowed themselves into her girl friend's back.A startled Lynn let out an exhasperated sigh, grabbing on to Natalie's arms as if to tear them off of her, but stopping right as her fingers grasped around them, holding them in place. “Oh hi there,” she responded, turning her head to give Natalie a playful peck on the cheek, after which she wrestled herself free. “Booze?” she asked.“Booze,” Natalie replied matter-of-factly.The two friends walked up to the bar, picking out a couple of sizeable plastic cups, and filled them both up with gin and tonic. Getting too sloshed too early at an office party was always a bad idea, so they kept the gin-to-tonic ratio low enough to still give them a decent buzz.“Talked to any hot guys yet?” Lynn asked eagerly.“Not yet… Need to get in the mood first. This office has a habit of drying me up like a desert down there.”Lynn giggled. “I know what you mean.” She took a big sip of her drink.“Unless you have any leads for me?” Natalie asked her friend, who got a strained look on her cute little face.“Yeah right. That means I won't get you all to myself,” she responded jokingly, with a flirtatious raising of her eyebrows. Her friend seemed to blush after that.“Shit Nat, I gotta go powder my nose. I'll find you in a bit,” Lynn said, and scurried off. Knowing the habits of some of her co-workers, “powder my nose” could be meant both literally and figuratively.Natalie walked around the office idly for a bit, stopping for small talk here and there, getting a glass of wine from the lobby, trying to figure out some kind of game plan. The booze did a good job at staving off the worst oh her anxiety, not to mention the general weird atmosphere of “forced fun” that office parties tended to have. Still, she found it difficult to loosen up, and seemed to have lost track of Lynn's whereabouts.She found her friend just outside the main entrance to the building, where people would go for fresh air, and others would go to ruin their experience with cigarette smoke. Natalie was not a fan of tobacco, and thankfully, her friend was in the former group.“Hey Nat! Come here! This is uh… Well, shit.” Her friend seemed to have forgotten the name of the handsome man standing next to her, whose presence Natalie had just noticed. He was about an inch taller than her in her boots, his head topped by slick dark brown hair, and a thin beard that accentuated his chiseled facial features. His broad shoulders were clad in a modest black dress shirt, and on his legs he was wearing a pair of jeans and black leather loafers.The man smiled, his face lighting up as he extended his right arm, inviting Natalie to a handshake. “I'm Konstantin. You must be Natalie I presume? Lynn here won't stop talking about you!”“Oh, it's all true,” she said with a laugh as she shook his hand. “Nice to meet you, Konstantin.” He was so hot. Natalie normally liked her men to be a few inches taller, but there was something about the way their eyes met almost level as he gave her his bright smile, full of confidence.

She knew everybody in her department, and everyone worth knowing outside of it. “Unless you want me to slut up for a night on the town afterwards?”Lynn giggled. “I'm just teasing. You look great as always, Nat.” The short-haired woman took a sip of water from her glass. “I'm just thinking about… you know. I kind of want to hook up with somebody. I haven't done that at work before. Feels like something I should cross off my list at some point, if I had one I mean.” She took another sip. “Don't get me wrong but you're a lot more experienced here than I am. Got any beginner tips?”At first, Natalie felt a bit weirded out by that last comment, but then she realized that Lynn would never judge her for being a “slut” at work, and probably just wanted in on the action. She gave her friend a coy, thoughtful smile. “I don't really know what to say that, Lynn!” she responded with a hearty laugh.Her friend kept sipping water. She seemed nervous, for some mysterious reason. “Come on. You know it's true. I want to be just like you, Nat!” The last bit came out with a heavy dose of sarcasm.“Let's just enjoy the free booze and try to avoid the annoying people. You're gonna be fine. Besides, if one of these polo-wearing golfer guys were to try to steal you away from me, I would probably have to beat him up,” Natalie responded half-jokingly. Lynn was a real cutie, but Natalie just wasn't into women in that way, even though she would often masturbate to them. That was different though, women were just sexier than men. Didn't mean she was gay, not that she had any problem with that.The rest of the working day before the party went by as usual. Natalie sat in her cubicle, sending out purchasing emails and handing invoices over to payments. But mostly, she was just trying to pass time and look busy whenever somebody walked past. She had been to plenty of office parties, at this job and previous ones, and these things just didn't make her nervous anymore. She felt like she could already predict all that was going to happen that night. Free drinks, some speeches from upper management, maybe a forced “team building” activity or two, but most importantly, free drinks.Her friend's comment about her slutty work habits had bothered her a bit. Not because Lynn thought her to be a slut, she knew that she did and that was great, but rather quite the opposite. In truth, she hadn't really been hooking up with any co-workers lately. That was a frequent activity in her mid twenties, but in recent years, the dull routine and general feeling of alienation at the office had pretty much turned off her sexuality completely in that environment. Maybe it was time to live up to her friend's image of her? Not only was it a matter of principle, the prospect was also kind of exciting to her despite where she was at the moment, trapped in a grey cubicle.“Hey Nat, they got a new coffee maker downstairs. You have just got to check it out!”The cheerful voice was Diego, a tall, skinny, good-natured man with short black hair, olive skin, and a constant worried look in his eyes. He had appeared at the entrance to Natalie's cubicle to share some minor news about the office, as he often did. It was a welcome break to the dullness of the average day, she thought. Diego was a nice guy, always happy and helpful, and the two of them had formed a bit of a workplace bond over the last couple of years. Doing small favors for each other here and there, spending breaks together, having coffee.“You know what? I might just do exactly that. Wanna come?” she responded, and Diego's face lit up. She whisked her mug off of her desk, and got up from her chair onto her leather booted feet. Their 2-inch heels made barely any noise as the two of them walked across the wall-to-wall carpet that covered the floor of the cubicle farm, heading for the stairwell.“So… How are things?” Natalie didn't have to specify the “things” she was asking him about. It was a bit of a sensitive topic, so she didn't want to bring it up too directly. Diego had recently gone through a divorce, and was now adjusting to life as a bachelor again. It was difficult, as he had been married for a long time, and his meek, super-nice-guy manners weren't especially suited for living it up as a single in the city, she thought. Nevertheless, the divorce hadn't changed him much, at least not on the surface. He continued to be nice and cheerful, always notifying Natalie of “exciting” new happenings around the office, but she could tell it was bothering him.“Oh you know… Getting used to it. Got everything set up in my new apartment. It's a real bachelor pad, haha. Hey, there's the new coffee maker.” He didn't seem to enjoy the subject matter very much, so Natalie decided not to bring it up again, for now.As Diego had pointed out, they had arrived at the awesome new coffee maker in the downstairs break room. There was nothing special about it at all, as far as Natalie could tell. There was a holder for your mug, and the usual array of buttons for selecting the type of coffee you wanted the thing to fill it up with. It didn't really matter. A cup of coffee with Diego in the break room was always a nice and welcome distraction. They both knew that the “new coffee machine” was just an excuse to spend some idle minutes together, getting away from the daily grind. And so they filled up their cups, and took seats at a small round table.“Looking forward to the party?” Natalie asked, half-sarcastically. Diego was as much a fan of mandatory corporate fun as anybody else, she knew, and he especially didn't like big booze-fuelled parties. They made him feel anxious, he had confided in her once.“You know me,” he responded casually, taking a big sip of coffee. “I'm the party animal around here.” He put the cup down with a somewhat dejected smile, as if part of him wished for that statement to be true. “I'll stick around for a drink, make sure management notices my attendance, and then sneak out at my first opportunity before things get too rowdy. Got plenty of things to set up in my new place, anyway.”Diego looked wistful, and Natalie felt pity for him. It got worse when he tried to cover up his anxiety with a forced smile. Maybe she could convince him to stay, even help him find somebody to hook up with? Lynn was certainly in the mood, but Natalie had no idea whether he was her type or not. She didn't really know anything about her dating history, though Lynn knew all about hers, somehow. Besides, convincing him to stay at a loud, booze-drenched office party would be about as easy as convincing water to stop being wet. She dismissed the idea.A few hours later, the party kicked off. Most off the staff had gathered in the lobby for an exciting speech about the branch's promising future by their local chief of operations, and Natalie was already tipsy from the welcome drink. Something fruity, with booze in it. She didn't bother to find out more details.A delivery driver had dropped off boxes of pizzas and assorted snacks, which had been opened and left on a counter. A transparent fridge had been stocked to the brim with bottles of beer and wine, and a makeshift “bar” had been set up in the corner of the lobby for mixing cocktails. There, one could find the usual assortment of rum, gin, vodka, various mixers, and more. It would be her next stop when the speech was over, Natalie decided.When the half-hearted applause died down and the music started, she made her way over to the cocktail bar. There was no use being sober at an occasion like this one, so it was time to get herself a gin & tonic, or something equally strong. A small group of people with the same idea had gathered nearby. Thankfully, Lynn was also there, and so Natalie snuck up on her and embraced her from behind.“Hey there sexy,” she said, jokingly imitating a deep, masculine voice, as her arms wrapped around Lynn from behind, meeting just below her chest. Lucky girl, she never had to wear a bra, Natalie thought, as her own breasts burrowed themselves into her girl friend's back.A startled Lynn let out an exhasperated sigh, grabbing on to Natalie's arms as if to tear them off of her, but stopping right as her fingers grasped around them, holding them in place. “Oh hi there,” she responded, turning her head to give Natalie a playful peck on the cheek, after which she wrestled herself free. “Booze?” she asked.“Booze,” Natalie replied matter-of-factly.The two friends walked up to the bar, picking out a couple of sizeable plastic cups, and filled them both up with gin and tonic. Getting too sloshed too early at an office party was always a bad idea, so they kept the gin-to-tonic ratio low enough to still give them a decent buzz.“Talked to any hot guys yet?” Lynn asked eagerly.“Not yet… Need to get in the mood first. This office has a habit of drying me up like a desert down there.”Lynn giggled. “I know what you mean.” She took a big sip of her drink.“Unless you have any leads for me?” Natalie asked her friend, who got a strained look on her cute little face.“Yeah right. That means I won't get you all to myself,” she responded jokingly, with a flirtatious raising of her eyebrows. Her friend seemed to blush after that.“Shit Nat, I gotta go powder my nose. I'll find you in a bit,” Lynn said, and scurried off. Knowing the habits of some of her co-workers, “powder my nose” could be meant both literally and figuratively.Natalie walked around the office idly for a bit, stopping for small talk here and there, getting a glass of wine from the lobby, trying to figure out some kind of game plan. The booze did a good job at staving off the worst oh her anxiety, not to mention the general weird atmosphere of “forced fun” that office parties tended to have. Still, she found it difficult to loosen up, and seemed to have lost track of Lynn's whereabouts.She found her friend just outside the main entrance to the building, where people would go for fresh air, and others would go to ruin their experience with cigarette smoke. Natalie was not a fan of tobacco, and thankfully, her friend was in the former group.“Hey Nat! Come here! This is uh… Well, shit.” Her friend seemed to have forgotten the name of the handsome man standing next to her, whose presence Natalie had just noticed. He was about an inch taller than her in her boots, his head topped by slick dark brown hair, and a thin beard that accentuated his chiseled facial features. His broad shoulders were clad in a modest black dress shirt, and on his legs he was wearing a pair of jeans and black leather loafers.The man smiled, his face lighting up as he extended his right arm, inviting Natalie to a handshake. “I'm Konstantin. You must be Natalie I presume? Lynn here won't stop talking about you!”“Oh, it's all true,” she said with a laugh as she shook his hand. “Nice to meet you, Konstantin.” He was so hot. Natalie normally liked her men to be a few inches taller, but there was something about the way their eyes met almost level as he gave her his bright smile, full of confidence. His handshake had been gentle, almost romantic somehow. Natalie could feel herself starting to melt a bit. Well done, Lynn.The three of them made some small talk out in the fresh evening air, with drinks in their hands. Konstantin worked in sales, and was often out on client calls, which was probably why they hadn't met at work before. After a little while, Lynn excused herself and went inside, leaving the two of them alone in the midst of small groups of chattering, drunk coworkers.Natalie found herself at a loss for words. It wasn't typical of her. This hot guy was just beaming with confidence, something she would usually try to take down a notch or two, but he was so nice and considerate at the same time. He was filling in all the silences with questions about Natalie, seeming genuinely curious about her, and she answered as well as she could with brief statements while she tried to think of what to do next.“Do you dance?” she asked somewhat awkwardly, as the music inside got louder.“Love to!” Konstantin responded, still smiling. “Shall we?”The floor of the lobby had been cleared up, and the “office DJ” was running some tacky playlist on her laptop. It didn't matter so much. Natalie had two left feet when it came to dancing, and tried to focus on not making a fool out of herself as she tried to make subtle rhythmic moves. Konstantin seemed like a fish in water on the dancefloor. He didn't do anything extravagant, simply moving his body to the music as if it was second nature to him, constantly beaming with that hot smile of his.As the night went on, the dancefloor got more crowded, and Natalie got tipsier. She and Konstantin had been moving closer to each other the whole time, and by now, they were just inches away from each other. Anyone who glanced their way could see what was going on, but Natalie didn't care. People hooked up in the office all the time, and it's not like she had some virtuous reputation to maintain. She put her arm around his neck and leaned forward to whisper in his ear.“Let's get out of here. My place isn't far.”Over Konstantin's shoulder, she could see Lynn standing in the corner of the Lobby, nursing her drink. Natalie felt a little bit guilty about ditching her friend, but the look of approval on Lynn's face eased her worries.She leaned back, raising her eyebrows and looking into Konstantin's light brown eyes with intent. He was biting his lip. His hand found hers, and they walked outside.The air was electric as the pair stood in Natalie's dark apartment hallway. Natalie had just closed the door behind them, and was staring at Konstantin's silhouette as he took off his shoes, letting the outline of his hard body become clearer as her own eyes adjutsed to the lack of lighting. She pulled off her own boots, and stood on the floor in her ankle socks, anticipating this man's next move.It came suddenly. With force, he lifted her arms above her head, pressing them against the wall and kissing her passionately. She let out a surprised but excited moan, and tried to grab his head before realizing that her arms were trapped. He let go of her arms and let his ands explore her body all over, clumsily finding their way under her tucked-in blouse, caressing her naked body underneath all the way up to her bra-covered breasts. He squeezed them and dug his fingers under the fabric, trying to find her no doubt rock hard nipples.Natalie kept her arms above her head in the dark hallway, letting Konstantin explore her body at his leisure. He was pressed up against her, hard, grinding away. The bulge between his legs rubbed against her clit through layers of jeans and underwear, but it was enough to make her want more. She wanted him inside of her, badly now.Right then, Konstantin stopped, and took a step back. Natalie felt very confused. Was he teasing her? She wouldn't have any of that, not tonight. Flustered, she groped the wall, searching for the light switch.Her dark eyes squinted as light flooded the previously dark apartment. Konstantin stood before her, his face glistening with sweat and saliva from their sloppy kisses. He was sucking his lower lip in, hard, while giving her a puzzled look. What was he doing?“Natalie I… I have kind of a thing I want to do with you, if you don't mind,” he said after hesitating for many long seconds. The thing had better be to fuck her silly until she passed out from orgasmic pleasure, she thought, giving him a sly and expectant look. A nervous look washed over his face, as he continued hesitating.Natalie stepped forward, grabbing Konstantin by the hairs at the back of his head gently. She licked her lips and said, “tell me what you want to do to me,” hoping that the command would dispel his nervousness and hesitation.“I… You're so hot,” he said, pausing for another few seconds, caressing the side of Natalie's body up and down. “I'm going to cum in literal seconds if we fuck. Never been good at lasting long. So… I want to do that. I want to cum inside of you, and then eat my cum out of your pussy. It's… kind of my fetish.”Natalie interrupted him with another sloppy kiss before he could get too lost in his own thoughts. She had never tried that before, and at the moment, she was hot and horny enough to try just about anything. As long as it meant getting some dick in her. She unzipped his pants and dug his throbbing member out of his boxers. It wasn't the biggest one she'd ever held, but it was firm and already leaking precum. Her pussy was screaming to be filled up, so she unzipped her own jeans, and resumed her previous position, back against the wall with her hands above her head.Konstantin didn't seem to need any further approval. Within a second, he was back to ravishing her, kissing her neck, hands going all over the place. Her blouse became unbuttoned, and her bra unclasped, while her pants and wet panties slid down to her ankles. She moaned and reached down for his erect cock, jerking it faster and faster.He put one of his legs in between hers, spreading them apart as far as the elasticity of the pants around her ankles would allow for. They shared another sloppy kiss, tongues twirling around each other, as his cock slid easily up and all the way into Natalie's eager, dripping wet pussy. She could feel it bottom as her throbbing clit pressed against his hard pelvis, tickled by his recently trimmed pubic hairs.With his hands firmly grabbing her hips, Konstantin started fucking her, making sure her pussy got to feel the whole length of his cock, as he slammed hard against her clit with each thrust. Natalie gasped continuously, mimicking the rhythm of his thrusts. Their foreheads were touching, and they made intense eye contact.As he had promised, Konstantin's orgasm came quickly, after ten or so thrusts. His face scrunched up, and he grunted loudly, as his throbbing cock spilled load after load of hot cum into Natalie's pussy. She instinctively felt a bit disappointed, as she usually did when her partner came well before she was anywhere close herself. But then, she remembered the rest of his promise, and waited excitedly for his orgasm to subside.When it did, he pulled his dick out out of her, carefully replacing it with a hand, making sure to not let his seed spill out of her too much. Some of it was already dripping down her naked legs. She was a proper mess. Teary eyed, and with saliva glistening around her mouth. Her blouse was fully unbuttoned, and her unclasped bra was hanging around her neck like an albatross from an old poem. Konstantin's face was beaming. This was clearly his favorite part.Natalie didn't bother adjusting anything about herself in her current state. She simply kicked her pants and panties to the side, strode on sock-clad feet into the living room, blouse and bra still clinging to her upper body, and lied down with her back half on the couch, legs spread as wide as she could manage, a hand holding the hot cum inside her pussy. She motioned for Konstantin to get down between her legs and get to work, as he had promised.He wasted no time. Within seconds, he was on his knees between her glistening legs, lapping away at Natalie's cum drenched pussy with his eager tongue, making sure not to waste a drop of his own cum or her plentiful juices that it had mixed with. “Oh fuck,” Natalie exclaimed without even thinking. This was so hot. Maybe she should make all guys clean her out like this if they wanted to cum inside her? She finally knew why guys liked to put their fingers in her mouth after rubbing her pussy.Konstantin was, if possible, enjoying himself even more than she was. He was going wild, moaning and grunting, kissing the inside of her thighs and leaving big hickeys when he wasn't pressing his tongue between her pussy lips, making sure not to miss a single drop. With the way Natalie's juices were flowing, he would never be finished. That was fine, she could do this all night.She was pinching and tweaking her nipples hard, moaning like the slut she loved to be, when she almost passed out from a jolt of pleasure emanating from her clit. Konstantin had sucked it into his mouth like a vacuum, and was skilfully flicking his tongue against it in just the right rhythm. Natalie lost her breath as she started squirming, her body contorting on its own, legs wrapping around Konstantin's neck to force his face into her. Her thighs were pressed together so tightly that she was sure that he was suffocating, but that was a price she was willing to pay.The orgasm washed over her like a tsunami. It was so intense. Her thighs squeezed up so hard that she was scared of accidentally killing Konstantin. Waves of pleasure conquered her body as she lost control. She squirmed around, starting to glide off the couch as her juices flowed, giving Konstantin more and more cum, even though it wasn't his own.She came to, lying on the floor, a naked, quivering mess. Above her was the hot guy from the office party. His face was beaming again, almost looking proud of what he had done.by Traumseele for Literotica.

FRIDAY WRAP: Boeing's teary CEO, St. Paul's all-female city council, Bill Ackman's plea for sympathy, Gen-Z missed COP, and SBUX “ethical” sourcing

Beautiful Blu Birds,  It wasn't easy for me to sit down and record today's episode. Teary eyes and a grateful heart over here.  I had a lot of resistance and got to move through many layers of attachment, identity and not wishing to dishonor a creation that has - and continues to - genuinely impact people's lives in a positive way. You have all played such a huge role in my life, and I feel like we have become a community. In over 122 episodes I have poured my heart and soul into the vastness of the internet, and the gifts I have received from doing so are boundless.  When I sit down and truly ask myself what it is that I need in this phase of my life, the answer is not to be more visible and continue to share online, but to cultivate something so rich within my being that can only be found in silence - to no longer feed any instant gratification.  The answer is to create art as an extension of my being, and to birth it into the world from a place of gentle persistence. To truly walk the path of devotion through consistency and focus over time.  So, this is not a goodbye. This is merely a “I'll see you later.” And in the meantime, please always remember to carry beauty, love and unity on your wings and that the Divinity, the magic and everything you're looking for, is already inside of you. I love you with my whole heart. You beautiful magnificent, enchantingly rich, Blu bird. See you soon I love you,  Blu   P.s.

3:[2:24] Okay, I will stop with that. But yeah, so Anna Gasteier, Height 5 '5", born May 4th, 1967.She was a political brat. She was born in Washington, D .C.To her mom, an artist, and her dad was a political lobbyist who later went on to become the mayor of New Mexico City, the mayor of the New Mexico City of Corrales.She grew up on Capitol Hill, and one of her friends growing up was Jimmy Carter's daughter Amy.[3:03] For much of her childhood, she actually wore an eye patch, and she has said that she believes that influenced her to become a comedian, because, you know, all of ourgrowing up as a kid with the health thing, a lot of the times, that's how we react to it. I know I did.That's how I dealt with my epilepsy.Now, she later attended Northwestern University as a music major and graduated from Northwestern University of Communications with a Bachelor in Speech, Theatre,and Performance Studies.While at Northwestern, she was part of Paul Worshauer's improv comedy Meow before going on to join the Groundlings.Before getting into acting, she worked as a temp, switchboard operator, and a hostess, like many people having to toil away in those really crummy jobs before hitting theirbig break.She is a trained violinist and a singer who draws heavily from jazz influences.She even has recorded a Christmas album called Sugar and Booze, because let's honest, that is the core of Christmas.The joy of man and sugar and booze.[4:30] She's a trained violinist and a singer drawing heavily from jazz influences.In fact, she has even recorded a Christmas album called Sugar and Booze, because what says Christmas more than sugar and booze?And, you know, family strife.She has 86 acting roles, three producer roles, and two writing roles.She's a former groundling who performed in small roles in Seinfeld, Party of Five, Frasier, and many more roles as a working actor.Her first acting role was actually, you know, talk about starting at the top, she was a patron of a soup restaurant on the show Seinfeld.[5:23] After leaving SNL, she actually found success on Broadway way, and has had starring roles in Wicked and the Three Penny Opera, as well as a voice actor on showsincluding Bob's Burgers.She's also published a cookbook called Cooking with Anagasteyer, Recipes and Delicious Dishes Celebrating the Season.That really sounds like something that would come in a sweaty ball sack.Now, she's said her favorite spices are cinnamon and smoked paprika, and as a philanthropist, she has done work to support Broadway Cares, Equity Fights AIDS, andhelped support Planned Parenthood.Track 4:[6:33] Yes, J .D. Matt, that was awesome. Thank you so much.Today, we are talking about a wonderful cast member from the late 90s and early 2000s.And my guest today, I have the honor of welcoming my favorite news anchor in the United States, my friend, someone who's witnessed me do hours of karaoke in a wholelifetime ago.I want to welcome Nicole Brady to the podcast. Nicole, How are you?I'm great, Tom. Thank you. You are my favorite radio slash podcast broadcaster of all time from the days when we used to toss to you for traffic in Albuquerque.[7:17] Yes. And now moving up doing way more fun things, I guess, getting to talk about Saturday Night Live.I love talking to SNL. I love doing traffic too.Back in the day, in the mid 2000s, Nicole was a news anchor in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and I did traffic for a radio station, so I would do traffic for the TV station, andwe had a lot of fun times, as much fun as you could have at 6 a .m.Talking about the traffic on television, but it was a great time, I loved those days. Yes, it was.It's crazy to think how long it's been.Sometimes it seems like a different lifetime ago, like you said, and then we're both still involved in it, And I know you were always really into broadcasting and comedyand so was I and so I'm glad we're both still talking about this stuff.This is wonderful. It's all coming together. You have to remind me.What was your go -to song when we would go to karaoke?Oh, good. Great question. Did I have a go -to?God, my husband, as you remember, certainly would have had. He brought the house down. His go -to.[8:27] What do I like? I don't know. No, gosh, Tom, you put me on the spot.I was all prepared to talk about SNL and not my own karaoke history.Oh, I did Marvin Gaye. I think you had the privilege of watching me do Marvin Gaye and probably Careless Whisper, Total Eclipse of the Heart.Maybe I have a memory of that. Yes, yes.Those are good ones. Yes. No, my husband used to like to do I'm Just a Gigolo.I don't know if you remember that one. Yep, that's right. He always liked that.We did a good David Lee Roth.Yeah, yeah, the David Lee Roth version.Yes, I know we would do some duets. I think sometimes we used to like to do the Pogues Fairytale of New York.Yeah. Deep cut for karaoke. I think people appreciated that.[9:15] Yeah. So, uh, got to get. We have I have not been in a like publicly performed karaoke in a while now.We've done some at home, but, you know, we've got kids. Because they are getting into it, so.Yeah, I think I'm retired as well. Yeah, you're retired. I don't want to.My wife hasn't seen that side of me, so I don't want to, like, embarrass her too much out in public. Oh, I know.It's one of… Yes. It was before we were recording, like, every moment of our lives all the time, so sometimes that's a good thing. Exactly.[9:44] And so I know you're a big comedy fan. Yes.We've talked a lot of comedy in the past, and I want to know, like, what's your history with watching Saturday Night Live?I started watching Saturday Night Live in 1992 when I was about 12, and I know that because it was the election year.And so it was when Dana Carvey was doing George Bush and Ross Perot, and Phil Hartman was doing Bill Clinton, and they would have their debates on TV.And my parents were fans of SNL, and I guess that was the year they just felt I was old enough and would let me stay up to watch it.But I specifically remember it being that year because of the election.So sometime around that 92 season, I would have started watching it and just loved it.I mean, never missed it ever since.As a child, at least through the 90s, I would never miss it.From there on, I remember that season would have been, you know, like we said, Dana Carvey and Wayne's World and Mike Myers and.[10:51] You I think Adam Sandler and Chris Farley and David Spade and those guys were getting in there in those years.So those are kind of some of my favorite, favorite years.And then of course, I think at some point in the 90s, you could probably start watching all the old episodes on Comedy Central when that came out.So then I went back and watched the old ones from the 80s and 70s and have pretty much watched it ever since.But the 90s, I was so excited when you told me that I would get to talk about it on a gas dyer because that was like the time that, you know, such an impressionable time inlife. And those were always my favorites.Yeah, people around were about the same age and people around our general age range.Yeah, that was those were our cast, the Dana Carvey, Mike Myers, Phil Hartman, Comedy Central and VH1 used to show.Yeah, it was both of them. Yeah. So like, so we got a, we were lucky enough to go be able to go back and watch from the 70s and on on those two networks.Yeah, yeah, that was great.[11:56] Similar experiences, like I said as a lot of people in our general age rate age range do and I believe you've done a little sketch And improv, but I remember whatgoing to watch you and Albuquerque do a little bit Another thing that yeah, so I've retired from that.But yes, okay We did Brian my husband and I took improv classes in Albuquerque together and then performed a little bit Yeah, I it was not the best but I always admit.[12:26] Some of those guys, some of the people we worked with were awesome and hilarious and they still perform in Albuquerque at the Box Theater.So for your listeners there, they're amazing and awesome.And so we continue to go watch them a lot. But we have since sort of retired from that.But of course I always really appreciated the difficulty of improv or sketch comedy and how difficult it is to make it funny.So, I've always loved, you know, whenever we've gone to New York, Chicago, LA, we go to the improv clubs, we go to the Ground League, Second City, where most ofthe SNL casts have come from. I mean, we love all that stuff.Yeah. I mean, as someone who's dipped your toe in that, try to put it in perspective.Like what does it take to make sketches work at such a high level like Anna did and other SNL performers did? Like, what all goes into that from your perspective?[13:18] That's a great question. From my limited perspective on that, I always love it when I watch an SNL sketch that I can feel was something that someone just sort ofimprovised or came up with and then they just ran with it.And sometimes I feel like the best sketches are the ones that are kind of goofy.They don't really seem grounded in anything topical or like an idea that someone wrote down on paper, but rather more of just sort of someone just getting up there andacting.And maybe it started as a sketch they were trying, but it ran with something and went some other direction.[13:58] And I feel like I'm sure that has to happen all the time, I'm sure.So, you know, the writers are obviously extremely important to the show, but I also think that sometimes just those characters and those actors can probably just take someof those sketches in different directions.So both are really important. I think writing good comedy is way more difficult than I would even know because that timing, it's just so hard to nail.And I think we all know there are some really awful SNL sketches in the history of the show that just do not work. That's the fun of being an SNL fan, though I think a lotof times it's seeing the bad ones because there's plenty.It's hard, yeah. But then there are brilliant ones that stay with us forever.I don't know if you're like me, I always like the ones at the end of the show, like the 10 to 1 sketches, just the oddball, let's try this out and see if it sticks.Those are always a lot of my go -to SNL sketches for the weirdo ones.Sometimes those were the best in the whole episode because they were just like the end of the show, almost got cut probably.[15:02] Sometimes those are the gems. Yeah, definitely. So it's our topic today is on a gas tire.She was on the show from 1996 to 2002 that was an era that immediately followed a time when the show was actually in genuine trouble Season 20 the show was introuble, They always use the headline like Saturday Night Dead, but this is a time when that was almost gonna come true I think the humor Nicole was a little more crass.Maybe not as clever before Ana got there.Ana got there in season 22, so maybe a season before Ana got there, they were starting to whip themselves into shape a little bit.But it was honestly like very much a boys club at SNL around that time.And she's often grouped with Sherry Oteri and Molly Shannon for good reason. They were great.So I mean, how cool was it from your perspective to be able to see like such talented women help to get the show back on good footing? Thank you for watching.[15:59] Yeah, that's a great question and something I thought about a lot preparing for this.I don't know that I would have appreciated it as much as a teenager watching it.But you know, now looking back over even more time, I mean, wow.So by the time Anna Gasteyer was on the show, it had already been on for over 20 years.It's been even longer now since she was a cast member on that, or just as long.And so, when you look over all that history now, you can still really only point to, I mean, such a small group of women versus the group of men who would have gainedfame and be household names from that show. And there are a lot more women now.But she was really, like you said, Anna Gasteyer, Cheri O'Teary, Molly Shannon were kind of the first ones in the 90s.They had had, you know, really only a few before that, that I think I even looked through the history and there was one season where I think Julia Sweeney was the onlymain player and not a featured player, but one of the main cast members. She's the only woman.[17:02] And so, and there were always women in there, featured players, things like that.But just to kind of go from those, like you said, that boys club of maybe Adam Sandler, David Spade, Chris Farley, those guys who were kind of, you know, taking theshow in a different direction, like you said, to this newer era of really, really great actors and tight, you know, tight sketches and characters and more equal balance betweenthe actors, more of an ensemble, I guess you'd say.That was pretty cool. And it's definitely noticeable now if you were to go back and look through those years again, how remarkable that change was from kind of the guyswho wanted to be the funniest person, you know, Adam Sandler, Chris Farley, David Spade, they were stand -ups, they were hilarious.I mean, I loved those years, don't get me wrong.But then you get into the years where it's not the people, but it's the sketches that you remember. It's the delicious dish, the NPR sketch with Ana Gasteyer, or thecheerleaders, or Molly Shannon as...[18:12] Mary Catherine Gallagher, yes. So you have those years that come in, and it's more about these sketches.And Will Ferrell, as brilliant and amazing as he is, I think I've read other people say this, too.I mean, it was all about the sketch partner there, too, and he always made whoever he was with look amazing, too.And so it was never really about him being this standout star from that era, even though, in hindsight, he was.He was absolutely one of the most brilliant stars ever come from the show, but everyone looked good during those years.[18:47] And I think the women, you know, it was really the first time in a long time you'd seen fully female -led sketches, in some of those instances that I mentioned withthe NPR ladies there, or some of Anna Gastera's characters that we'll talk about more when she did The View, where she would play different characters on that, and SherryOtero was Barbara Walters.And so you really we started to see a lot more women -led sketches during that time.Yeah, that was such a pivotal point as far as that goes. We had Jan Hooks.She was probably the most memorable a few years before then, but even she, like that perspective, she wasn't always able to, or maybe allowed, I don't know, but she didn'talways give the perspective quite like Anna and Sherry and Molly did.Jan Hooks served different roles in a lot of sketches. A good example, I think, of that trio ago.And that dynamic to me was there was a sketch from October of 98.The three of them played hosts on MSNBC.They were discussing the Hillary and Bill Clinton's marriage.And it went from like a semi -serious news program to a slumber party.Do you think Hillary Clinton is pretty?She is definitely pretty. Oh, come on, that left -wing feminist propaganda.She's not that cute. She has a very pretty face.Sharon hmm well not to sound like the president or anything, but it really depends on how you define pretty I mean.[20:14] She's not like model pretty you know But like on a scale of one to ten if one was like the crypt keeper and ten was like Jennifer Love Hewitt I'd say she's like a youknow like a sixth or a seventh.Oh come on Yeah, I think Hillary's the kind of pretty where like if you didn't know her she wouldn't catch your eye But if she was your friend you'd be like oh, she's totallypretty You know?[20:36] Something like that you might see in the late 70s with Gilda and Jane and Lorraine Newman, but something like that we hadn't seen.To me, we hadn't seen something like that in a long time. Lucy Lawless was playing a legal expert who got in on the fun.So just to see that perspective of like, we're serious news people.Now it's a slumber party because that's, you know, that was commentary on how the Clinton scandal was being covered around that time. And that was just such a greatexample to me of that perspective and how the three of them played really well together.I loved seeing some, revisiting some of the commentary on Bill Clinton that they had during that time. That was fun.So we could get into some of those sketches and characters.What's like maybe the first, one of the first ones that comes to your mind when you're thinking of Anna Gasteyer?A couple. I mean, one of the first ones that comes to mind is the, I mean, I loved Delicious Dish NPR, they nailed that so well and I remember, because I would drive toschool at that time, so I do remember listening to NPR and they were so spot on with how those hosts talked.Now, Terry, the days are getting longer and the mercury is rising.It sure is, Margaret Jo, and that can only mean one thing, summer. summer.[22:02] Now, one of my favorite things about summer is that you can have your meals outside.That is neat. Yeah, it's fun Because it's warm it's warm outside.Yeah Summer's my favorite season same here because it's hotter than the rest of the year Yeah, it sure is. It's neat, isn't it? It's fun.It's neat. It's neat Good timing Compared to how most of us listen to the radio and the shock jocks and whoever that you listen to the radio You know back back then andstill today to some extent.I don't really was part of a morning zoo myself Kind of a little bit on ko BFM.I was yeah exactly part of something like that Exactly you have that stuff and then and then so NPR was just so different and they just nailed that and even you know Theywere so funny with their soft -spoken and their comments to each other and just it's hilarious. It's hilarious.They just were so spot -on and and then of course they had just the funniest topics and guests I mean the sweaty balls with Alec Baldwin is a Christmas classic.Tell us about your balls Pete.Well over at Seasons Eatings we have balls for every taste. Popcorn balls, cheese balls, rum balls, you name it.Wow. My mouth's watering just thinking about those balls.[23:28] It's been years since I've seen any balls.Would you like to see my balls now? Yeah. Whip them out.That just is one of those that's in pop culture now that's, you know, if you say that term, people know what you're talking about. Usually.And, um, and then they, you know, I watched, I rewatched an episode with John Goodman on there that, um, that cracked me up.Uh, so the guests that they would get on what they would get the hosts, hosts to do in there.So funny. Uh, so I, I loved that one. Something about the delicious dish.What really stood out to me was just how it takes a lot of confidence to do something so quiet to do material that quiet. Like, it was very quiet, understated, even before allthe innuendo would start.Like, with the sweaty balls, Alec Baldwin didn't get on screen for like two and a half minutes.[24:25] And sometimes that's an entire sketch. So, Anna and Molly Shannon had to carry the sketch with an understated, quiet kind of tone.And that takes a lot of skill. That takes a lot of confidence in the material and the performance to not shout something from the rooftops like that. Does that make sense?I 100 % agree. I mean, when you watch those again, you realize how just, yeah, it's not, it doesn't come out, and it is slow. They're longer sketches.And I don't know what the average time for sketches, if it has grown shorter or longer or whatever over time, but just to let something just kind of settle in like that and relyon the characters, I mean, And that must have been a lot of trust that the show, that the producers, that Lorne Michaels had in those actors because, I mean, they werebeloved.I mean, people loved SNL at that time for Molly Shannon and Sherry O 'Terry and Anna Gasteyer.I mean, the women were a huge part of the show's success at the time.And so I think they hit on something at that time where just being funny and kind of doing pop culture references and things like that really, really just worked at the time.[25:40] Yeah, and even though the material is quiet like what stood out to me too about watching Anna perform a little subtle thing I guess that she Made the sketch work.She doesn't play it as bored.Even though the material is quiet. You never think that she's bored Talking in the sketch like her facial expression is key.She knew the right tone to carry She always has like a smile like an excited smile on her face, even though her delivery is very dry I don't know if you know this, but thereare a lot of different kinds of ice.You're absolutely right. There's cubed ice. Crushed ice. Cracked ice. Shaved ice.Shaved ice. I didn't know ice could grow a beard.[26:28] That's funny.[26:32] Did you just think of that right now? No, I thought of it last night and wrote it down.If she broke in this in these sketches, they would die like they wouldn't work Like there's some sketches where it's fun to see them break something like this It would justtotally ruin all the comedy So that's something about honest performance that just struck me rewatching these was just she carried the perfect perfect tone I don't know thatshe ever broke that I remember seeing I mean and yeah, you know, I I don't know that that group really was known for that, but I mean, they took it seriously to the extentthat, I mean, it was hilarious.They were zany and wild and out there, but in the performance of it, it was all business there, and just great acting and comedic timing and really getting into thosecharacters.I mean, I you know, it's fun because I can't even I just can't even picture on a gas tower ever Breaking up or laughing during a sketch and oh not really Jimmy Fallon'sdepartment in Horatio that was kind that started a lot with Jimmy Fallon for sure, Yeah, yeah You know and but you know, no one was gonna be the one who's throwing itoff kind of in those cases and so yeah, you're right like that would have just to laugh or just throw something else in would have thrown off that sketch, but.[27:59] Sketches just classic good time.Yeah, good times good time So, so yeah delicious dish awesome.What's what's the other what's another one that you're gonna mention?So, you know, so much of Anna Gasteyer is like a duo, obviously, so pairing her with Will Ferrell for the cult.When life's little emergencies come at you, try a little CPR, cardiopulmonary refunctation.One, two, three, four.[28:45] I mean.[28:49] That was when I was in school still. And so you had the Bobby Culp and Marty, Bobby and Marty Culp coming on and doing school assemblies, playing theseridiculous songs, committing to it fully.Now that's kind of what I meant to say earlier is they just committed so fully that that's really what I meant when I say serious.They were just so committed to those characters.And it was hysterical. I loved those sketches when they would come on and I think some of it was being a high school student at the time and being able to relate to theseridiculous adults coming on stage to talk about.Drugs or things and singing these ridiculous songs.You know, I think Ana Gaster actually has a very nice voice in real life.She's a great singer, you know, she's a trained singer.I think she did Wicked and she's done like musicals like on stage.Yeah, okay. She's very, very good. And I think the sketches partly worked because she's such a good singer.[29:56] Probably, probably. People kind of added to it. You know, you can exactly.It's not horrible to listen to, by any means.It's just funny, because they're just so out there and wild.And I love that one, because with both Anna Gasteyer and Will Ferrell, I just feel like they work together so well.They might have played off each other so well.[30:22] You know, again, I imagine there was probably some improv in a lot of the rehearsals for those.Yeah, I think so. The two of them and Paula Pell helped them write this.So I think the three of them did a lot of improv there at the office and yeah, what a fun, fun sketch.I used to perk up, like when these would come on, I just always wondered what songs they would sing.Yes, exactly. During the medley, like, yeah, what are we going to get?A lot of the times it was like a, yeah, it was a hip hop song with subjective lyrics, Baby Got Back, something like that, which I think was one of our karaoke songs to behonest with you. So it kind of fits, but.Yeah, that sounds about right. Yeah, exactly, those great 90s songs.[31:02] So, you know, that was amazing. I loved her as Martha Stewart and Celine Dion, so we can talk about both of those.I mean, so obviously we talked about some pairings that she had as a solo kind of performer.Obviously, Anna Gasteyer could hold a whole sketch on her own.I recently, I was reading in getting ready for this that I just googled on a guest star, Martha Stewart, hoping to find a clip.And of course I did, but I was reading that she credited the topless Martha Stewart Thanksgiving clip with preserving her job there.She said in an interview that that was when she knew she wouldn't get fired from the show because it just was such a hit. And it was.That has come up in a lot of the holiday specials, of course, over the years.So it's one of the sketches that I'm a Martha Stewart impressions, and it cracks me up every time.Hi there, I'm Martha Stewart.It's my favorite time of year.[32:08] Sleigh rides, caroling, and waffle, these are just some of the things that remind us all of Christmas.She's so deadpan in a way, and dry, like you said, similar to some of her other characters, but just hilarious with, you know, just a black bar over her top there.[32:33] And yeah, the whole thing, it's just so brave.And she's just, you know, really out there bearing all on her own out there.But Martha Stewart was brilliant.Again, kind of like NPR, it just nailed the...Absurdity of of her in some ways of that that character of having this homemaker like that on tv kind of and so that was that i just always loved martha stewart around thattime martha stewart that was before she went to prison yes so she wasn't she was just thought it's just kind of cookie cutter no pun intended uh boring kind of lady on tv sothat's where a lot of the comedy and then afterward, she has a little more, she's best friends with Snoop Dogg now, and she's been in jail.But back then, in 1997 or 98, she had just this square, dry persona. So, it was even funnier.Back then, everybody saw Martha Stewart topless with a black bar covering her, and it was like such an opposite of how we viewed Martha Stewart.Oh, yeah. Scandalous, kind of. Yeah, exactly.And that shoulder shimmy at the end that she does. She's like the perfect like capper to that sketch. It was wonderful.She had two other really good ones that I liked.[33:50] If anybody hasn't seen these, go look them up. It's a St. Patrick's Day sketch with when she played Martha Stewart. It was like a little edgier persona.Again, in that St. Patrick's Day sketch, it's kind of played against type as far as what we know about Martha Stewart.Kind of reveal the sort of dark personality underneath all of that.There's a Halloween sketch that's really funny. she's giving tips on pranks.[34:41] Smell. Eggs are a great way to make a lasting impression. A robin's egg splatters in a prism of harvest colors.And apparently it has to do with, like she mentions her ex -husband and there's a lot of like funny bitterness, something unhinged underneath the surface that Anna does agood job I think of letting out in small bits.I think to me too, Nicole, when I see really good comedic actors, like Phil Hartman used to do this really well, is where he would play it straight and have a straightdelivery, but you can tell there was something really unhinged below the surface.Is that something that you've noticed with some sketch performers?Yes, I think you're right.They are not letting on how ridiculous this could get, I think, in some ways. I think you're right.That in the Martha Stewart example, exactly.She's still... she's committed to playing it so...Straight and of course when in Saturday Night Live as when they bring back characters as they do over the years we've seen so many recurring characters so you have topush it a little further each time and make it a little different each time and so I think in those later sketches, when it got darker or just sillier you still have to stay fullycommitted.[36:02] To just kind of the seriousness of the character and it just makes it funnier.So I certainly think that that's true, especially of those recurring characters on the show.Yeah. The character that she played really big though, and we were going to talk about, was Celine Dion. Yes.Which I loved her as Celine Dion because that was when Titanic came out.And that song, My Heart Will Go On, was everywhere.You could not escape it. And she was, and so, you know, people had a love -hate relationship with Celine Dion.And she was hilarious. I mean, you know, the accent wasn't exactly spot on, but it was just, it was just hilarious.You look beautiful, and I can't believe your album has sold 10 million copies.Actually, it was only three million. Oh, that's right! My album has sold 10 million copies!I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Would you do the honor of singing me one of your It songs?I would be happy to. Hey, what about me? Oh, I'm so sorry, Shaina!Would you do me the honor of listening to Mariah sing?[37:17] Total caricature in that case, and just probably one of the bigger, like you said, more zany roles that she did was Celine Dion, on and just, I am the best singer in thewhole world.I mean, she just made it bigger and better and I always loved it when she would do that one.Something I love about impressions, you may agree, is to me it's not enough to sound like the person exactly.That's fine, it's more of like a parlor trick or something to sound exactly like someone. There needs to be a viewpoint, a take about that person.And I think Ana Gasteyer had one here with Celine Dion, the bragging about herself, often in like a passive aggressive sort of way.[38:04] And liking the spotlight on her, pushing Mariah Carey, played by Shari O 'Kerry away from her.I think Ana really found a take on Celine Dion and not just a, here's an impression of Celine Dion. Yes.Yeah, absolutely. That's such a great point about impressions.Because it is impressive when someone can do a really spot -on voice.I could watch the greats, Dana Carvey, do impressions all day.Not that he doesn't also do a take. I mean, he does. But some of the funnier ones are the ones that are not, you know, they don't necessarily look like the person exactly.They're not dead on, but they just take it and run with it.And yeah, she definitely hit on that sort of love -hate relationship that we had with Celine Dion. Yeah, you had to be there in the 90s to get that fool like Celine DionEverywhere as you mentioned.Yes In our faces all the time. I don't know if you had a chance to Rewatch any of the Cinder Calhoun sketches. That was an interesting one the Lilith Faire stand -up.Yeah Yeah, so when did you discover that you were funny?Um, actually, uh, it's funny story I was backstage with Tracy Chapman at the random acts of kindness tour a couple years back And she was kind of down, sort of in anemotional K -hole of sorts, you know.[39:31] And I really wanted to lift her spirit, so we decided to, you know, just take a ride down to the juice tent.[39:38] And so we get in her car, and I just turned to her and said, You got a fast car.[39:48] We practically peed our pants, we were laughing so hard. That was not one that I knew her as well for, and so that was kind of fun.I watched that, the one she did with Sarah McLaughlin, and you know, but again, it was very 90s during that era of female musicians, Lilith Fair.[40:12] It takes you back to those years, definitely, with like, you know, Lisa Loeb and the style that of so many of those 90s singers that was really fun to reminisce about.Yeah, her pronunciation of like Latino and Latina, just like the real kind of try hard sort of thing that we saw in the 90s that Sarah McLachlan won.It's like a Thanksgiving song. It's like a, I don't know, semi Thanksgiving classic on SNL, based it in blood. Yes.It's just such a -[41:23] Yeah, such a good take on that type of person. Yeah, that political stance that was popular and yeah, exactly.It was very true to the time.Did you get a chance to watch the sketch that I sent you for a specific reason?It was the Miami News Morning Edition one? Yes, I did.Alright, so this was one where it was in season 27, Anna Gasteyer was in and she plays a news anchor along with Will Ferrell and some stuff goes wrong in the studio.So I'm curious like watching this sketch as a news anchor, how would you handle some of this stuff?So like one of the things is at first they start with no chairs.So they're just like super short behind the news desk.Like what would happen if you just showed up to work and there's like no chair behind the desk? I don't know.I don't know that we often show up with no chairs, but they're all over the place. But different people sit in them so they're down really low or they're up really high.We definitely have that problem where you can't adjust it and so we're there trying to bounce on the chair to get it to go down because it's been raised all the way up.Someone's doing a countdown for you, you have like five seconds and you're still trying to adjust the chair. Yeah, and I'm sitting there trying to get my chair down.[42:38] I mean honestly, this is not a story that would entertain I'm sure most of your listeners, but we have had the biggest battle over chairs in the newsroom I'm currentlyin that I won't even get into it.It became a thing where we were on the mornings, we kept seeing these emails back and forth between some of the talent in the daytime and the chairs, complaining aboutthe chairs and the guy who's in charge of the chairs working to get better chairs and we just laughed like what is the problem?Just get us some chairs that work.[43:10] It really is ridiculous.Is some of the things that are so true to a real newsroom, whenever SNL has made fun of news, and I love when they make fun of news, of course, they are dead on with somuch of it.I mean, so much is kind of a cliche that the anchors have egos.[43:36] And what's going on when you're not supposed to be on camera, when you think you're not on camera, but the camera pops up.And so in that, in that, when you sent me the nine news morning morning show, it's just like that.It's like, it's like people who are trying to be really friendly because it's a morning show as you and you, you, you were part of a morning show, you know how it is. Andyou're trying to just kind of.Keep things, you know, happy and then things are going wrong, like the tape goes wrong.And you have to think that's kind of the some of the origins of Ron Burgundy with Will Ferrell. Yeah, that's a good point.Wow, I didn't even think of that. That's probably like a really good point.I mean, I've heard he based it on an actual old anchor in, you know, somewhere where he lived growing up.And I'm sure there were many inspirations. But, You know, you start to see in those old 90s news sketches that hint of Will Ferrell, that arrogance and…, Jim Collins Therewas that wake up and smile where it basically turned into Lord of the Flies because the teleprompter went out. Lauren Ruffin Exactly.[44:41] The teleprompter, you know, the tape guy's not there. They keep playing the wrong tape.They show Will Ferrell like picking his nose in one spot.I mean, I've been caught on camera where you think it's supposed to go to the other guy and it comes to you and I think I've never been caught picking my nose.Eating a sandwich? I think so. Shana Gasteyer eats a sandwich when she's off camera. Have you ever eaten a sandwich, Nicole?Okay, so yes, I have been caught with food in my mouth.[45:10] So not too many times but I've been caught with having taken a bite of something and it comes back to you sooner than you thought and I honestly I think the lasttime it happened to me.So a few years ago, but I, it wasn't like gum or something where I could just kind of spit it out real quick.I just had to say, I just had to finish chewing it.[45:32] This is great. You're going to go viral one of these days. I know.I know. I guess I sometimes I wonder if they don't go, if no one's calling and complaining, does that mean no one's really watching?I'm sure no one really needed to see me finish chewing and but, but, but no, that all of that stuff really, really happens, you know, and in the real world, you roll with it, andyou don't necessarily comment on it.I love in that particular one, you sent me someone has written lines into on a gas tires copy that she's reading that are not that are just ridiculous.The world's oceans may hold the secret to curing breast cancer.Recent studies at Johns Hopkins University have shown that plankton holds a certain enzyme that makes boobie cancer go bye -bye.So, bye -bye boobie cancer.I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Some very unprofessional writing once again.It just snuck right by me.I would never say boobie cancer. We, we are, we are indeed having a rough time here. It's like a child wrote, wrote the copy.[46:42] And he says like, what, what? I wouldn't say, no, I didn't, I don't know who wrote this. I wouldn't say that.And so, so they, they hype, they play up the egos.I mean, obviously, I would like to think most of us real news anchors read our stuff beforehand and would catch anything like that.And some of those would never happen to us, but they love to play up that the anchors are just really people who are there reading a teleprompter and anything that comesup on it.So, no, I… There was also a stray dog in the studio. And the stray dog… What would you do if there was a stray dog that just walked into your shot? Well, there was!Steve Stucker in Albuquerque did have his dogs in the studio. You're right.Did one of them ever go loose? Did you have any problems with those dogs in studio? We had, so a few that I remember, one time one of the, he, those dogs, Steve was adog trainer as well and had his dogs really well trained.But one time, maybe it was a newer one, pooped in front of the news director's office.Right in front of her office, like he knew. And she banned dogs for like the rest of the summer.She said we were going to have the dog days of summer, or the no dog days of summer.And Steve's dogs, who are always there on Fridays, were banned.Of course, in the end he won and they came back. And people love the dogs.[48:07] They were good dogs, but they would sleep. They would just kind of lay down anywhere in the studio.So you'd be walking over to do another shot at another camera and you're stepping over one of them. I don't remember all their names.[48:22] They were well behaved, but Steve would get some other animals and groups to bring on animals sometimes.And I remember a bird that someone brought on once that would not stop squawking and it, it was doing it while we had gone on to the serious news.And this bird is still squawking. I think I might have that on tape somewhere, but it was a, I mean, that was an SNL moment.That was a true, like, there is a bird squawking through our newscast right now and you would have to see it to believe it and I just, yeah, so I'm going to, I'll have to go digup some old stuff and see if I can share some of that.I've gotten old enough now where we can start to share our old stuff and it's funny now and it's not.At the time I remember I was a young, I was still pretty young.I thought it was horrible. I just couldn't believe our serious newscast was being disrupted by this bird.But now I think I would just laugh at it.I love news hijinks and I think SNL captures it so well. Anna was really great in this sketch, how she handled all the disturbances in the studio.Again, season 27, that was episode 12.Everybody should go check that out. But were there any other performances or anything like that, that we kind of glossed over? And Nicole, as far as On a Gas Tire goes?[49:51] I actually had never seen this one live, but I watched her do Dr. Laura.And that was a really funny one that comes up in her Best Of series that you can watch on YouTube.Cedric, hello. Oh, hi, Dr. Laura. I just want to say that I'm honored to talk to you.[50:07] And well, I'm my kid's dad. Appreciate it. Don't have time for it.What's your question? Oh.Well, my new wife's parents. New wife. Hm. New wife. What happened to the old wife, huh?Did we just sort of trade her in for a new model, which started making a knocking sound? Well, actually she died.But my new in -laws are very. I guess we're only concerned with the new wife's parents. I guess when old wifey died, the rest of her family just went down with the ship.What's your question?Um, I was wondering if I should... No, no, no. Wonder is a brand of bread. Don't wonder.Ask. My mother -in -law was actually a big Dr. Laura fan, so I'm pretty familiar with Dr.Laura and her style of advice over the radio.And she was just hilarious, just so mean to the callers.And I thought, wow, that was great. I mean, just again, just taking a current figure in the media and in pop culture that some people would have been, you know, I wouldn'thave probably been aware of her back then, so that's probably why I kind of missed the sketch.But nowadays that just really, that had me cracking up.And then, so yeah, that's another thing. Some of these are funnier on rewatch because now you really process the people in the news at the time and the characters.Like I was saying, I really thought it was hilarious watching The View again and what they said about the Bill Clinton situation with Monica Lewinsky and those things.[51:30] So Anna Gasteyer, I saw she played Joy Behar on The View. She also would play a guest star at times.And so that was really funny. And again, just all female driven.It's just it's the women of the show just carrying the biggest kind of stories of the day that SNL, you know, would have had very high up in the in the show.And and they were just they just nailed it.Yeah, yeah, that was so good. If those events had happened, I think in maybe season 20, like towards the end of the Sandler and Farley years, I don't know that I would trustthem to handle it so well.And with such clever with such clever takes behind it, I think it would have been real heavy handed if they even touched on it at all.And to me, to me, I think we're so just so thankful that we have people like on a gas dire who were on the cast to take on some of this material and some of these people inthe news and in pop culture, like she did and like the rest of the cast did. I think it's for the better.I mean, that transition from the mid 90s to like Anna Gasteyer, Will Ferrell and them, I think it was a transition that was so much for the better.And like, basically, she was part of a cast that saved the show, essentially.Mm -hmm, yeah, absolutely. I mean, as you said, that was one of the years that they were really looking at ending it and feeling it had run its course.[52:54] And that really, like you said, it kind of got them back to tighter sketches.You had said it had become a boys' club, but it had become kind of, you know, a little raunchier maybe, whereas the Anna Gasteyer era of SNL got it back to what I wouldsay was, I mean, in some ways cleaner.There was still a lot of great, like, innuendo. And, I mean, we talked about Martha Stewart topless, like there was, uh, there were great moments like that, that pushed theenvelope.[53:25] In a way that I think was just smarter. It was more intelligent and higher level.And so if it was, if there was a new window, if there was some, some crassness to any of it, it was definitely done in a way more intelligent way.And, and I mean, I think that was a period of time where in those subsequent years you saw Tina Fey come in and new writers, you know, and a female writer.And I mean, Paula Pell had been there, like you said. And, and so you, You did have a lot of great females behind the camera as well that were starting to craft some of thisstuff.But maybe it was those women who really had an influence on how the show's direction started to change.And I think those actors that they had at that time, a lot of them were from the Groundlings. Yeah. I think Anna's a Groundling.Yeah. Yeah. Anna was a Groundling. And Terry O 'Terry, Will Ferrell, I think Chris Kattan. And some of them were from that style where I know it was very, characterswere really important.So they had great characters they could do. Sketch writing was really important, crafting these really good sketches.And so the show just kind of got tighter again to the point where you have these characters that are breaking out and people are dressing up as the cheerleaders forHalloween or doing.[54:50] SNL became sort of that cultural touchstone again, that it has been at times in its history, but not all times.And that was definitely a time. I mean, my late years of high school was a time when everyone I knew knew some of those sketches from SNL. They knew thecheerleaders.They knew the delicious dish. They knew the NPR characters.They knew Molly Shannon as Mary Catherine Gallagher. I mean, everyone knew what was going on on SNL.And you know, an interesting tidbit too that I found was that when Colin Quinn was leaving Weekend Update, Anna Gasteyer and Chris Parnell actually auditioned to bethe new co -anchors on Weekend Update.Tina and Jimmy ultimately got the jobs, but Anna and Chris Parnell actually auditioned.So we almost lived in a world in which Anna Gasteyer was a Weekend Update anchor.I think that would have been pretty natural fit. Could you see Anna doing that?Yes, I think her and Chris Parnell, both, I think together would have been a great team on that.You know, he's kind of similar in that he committed, you know, a lot of dry characters, a lot of straight faced in some ways, but kind of zany underneath and, and thenewscaster worked really well for that because they had to be serious.[56:11] Facing a little bit, but with just this ridiculousness to it all.I think they would have been, that would have been awesome.It's too bad we can't have an alternate world where we saw what that would have looked like, but.They should release the tapes. SNL, release the audition tapes. We need to see them.I would love to see that. Yes, yeah, that would have been awesome.[56:32] But Anna Gastar, I was, you know, it's unfortunate. that I've not seen her subsequent work as much.I know, of course, she was in like Mean Girls, the movie, and was funny in that.She did a lot of like, she really did a lot of just mom roles, the wife in scenes.I mean, SNL has always had the people they had to turn to to be the straight man or the mom, the dad, those characters.And so if you could stand out in those, I felt like that showed some real talent. And she always did.She always, you know, she has a unique look to some extent.I was looking at how old she was when she was on the show, and I think she wouldn't have even been 30 yet when she started, and so early 30s for those years.And I'm thinking, wow, I mean, she could play this range.I think she always seemed maybe a little older than she was, and just could play those roles so well.There are actually another sketch I really enjoyed re -watching that I remembered was this, it's called The Dysfunctional Family.Was it Sarah Michelle Gellar? Was that the name of it? It was Sarah Michelle Gellar. Okay, yeah. Uh -huh.[57:49] And Will Ferrell just gets, you know, just so angry. Will you stop interrupting me?You know? And they're eating really loud with their forks. Yeah, she's the perfect mom in that, too.She is. Did you pick up my dry cleaning? It's not ready until Thursday.I thought you said it would be ready today. No, it's going to be ready Thursday.[58:12] Well, you know I have that meeting tomorrow. Well, I'm sorry.I wish you weren't a liar.I didn't lie, Ted. I just wish you weren't a liar.I wish you wouldn't call me a liar. Don't raise your voice at me.I am not raising my voice.You do not talk to me like that. I hate you. I hate you. I said you don't talk to me like that. I work too hard to deal with these stuff.I work too hard. I am a division manager in charge of 29 people.Shut up, bitch. I drive a Dodge Stratus![58:46] It's hilarious, it just, Will Ferrell alone though couldn't have carried it.It had, you know, it was her reaction and that made it such a perfect sketch because she again, didn't break character, held her own against Will Ferrell, a giant, and thenAnd then the two of them together, they're just so funny because she is kind of apologizing.And then finally it kind of all hell breaks loose. But I mean, it's just so funny.It was just such a perfect example of those sketches that I loved during that time that were really just kind of, you know, it's three people at a dinner table. Yeah, slice oflife.Those are some of my favorites. When you get the one character who's over the top, the others have to, and if they keep it together, I mean, that is just as funny in someways as when you get to see the few where they kind of crack up.But I love just thinking, like, how hard would it be to be in a room with Will Ferrell becoming, unhinged at the dinner table and not just start laughing? And that, yeah.But yeah, those are—that was a really fun one to watch. I just, um, I, I, so kind of backwards to what I was, I, where I was going with that was she, she, she's played some,I know she's been in some roles since.And I think even as show, I do remember that, um, about auto American auto.[1:00:15] Yeah. Yeah. I watched a few episodes. Um, it was pretty funny.I don't know. I just got so busy.I, I, but I would, would like to go back to it, but it had a lot of promise from what I saw.Okay. I'll have to check that out because I've every time that I've seen her in a interview since any any SNL reunions things like that she's awesome I think she is so funnyand and I noticed as I was rewatching Seinfeld recently as I told you I was watching the old 90s I'm really into the 90s nostalgia right now she was in the Snoop Naziepisode.[1:00:51] I had forgotten that too, I recently re -watched the Snoop Nazi episode for another project that I'm working on, but like, yeah, I had to, I was like the LeonardoDiCaprio meme from once upon a time in Hollywood pointing at the TV, like on a gas tire, there she is.That was a fun little treat.It is. It is. So just kind of probably the career beginnings, getting a little guest spot on that, getting and kicked out of the restaurant by the soup Nazi.Yeah. And so, yeah, so that, you know, I think she's had some success since the show and I'm glad for it and I would love to see her more.I would love to see her and Sherry O 'Terry and Molly Shannon reunited somehow. Right?Yeah. Yeah, that would be so much fun. We see Molly Shannon here and there.Sherry O 'Terry's been off the radar quite a bit over the years.Yeah. but that would be so much fun to see them back.Ana came back for the Betty White episode to do Delicious Dish.I thought that was great.Yes, yes, I do, I know. And I loved it when they brought back the old sketches like that in recent years.[1:02:05] That's fun, that's all, honestly, that's still one of my favorite things now, watching SNL is when they bring back someone older.I'm really glad people from all eras still come back on the show and that they'll reprise their old characters that we all remember when they do come back on.Yeah, yeah, I love that too.So now's the point in the show where we kind of, or you kind of summarize as the guest, just a little summary, convincing voters as to why they should consider voting forAnna Gasteyer for the SNL Hall of Fame.I think a lot of it has to do with what we talked about with being a groundbreaking female cast member, coming onto the show after a decade or more of...Male -dominated stars on the show and sketches that usually were centered around maybe the male lead character, where the women were often supporting players.[1:03:09] And so for that reason alone, I mean, just being part of just really, really, when you look at the main cast list from that era, it was those three that we've talkedabout, Onagas, Dyer, Sherry O'Terry, and Molly Shannon, who

This is TRT World's Daily News Brief for Friday, February 10th. *) Rescue teams race to find Türkiye, Syria quake survivors Rescuers were scouring debris nearly 100 hours after a massive earthquake hit Türkiye and Syria. The earthquakes have killed at least 21,000 people in one of the region's worst disasters of a century. In Türkiye, at least 17,674 people have been killed and 72,879 others injured by two strong earthquakes that hit the country's southern provinces earlier this week. The quakes also killed at least 3,377 people in neighbouring Syria. *) Don't lose hope, Türkiye will overcome this disaster: President Erdogan Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has asked his nation not to lose hope as rescuers raced to find more survivors under the rubble following this week's earthquake. Erdogtan on Tuesday declared a three-month-long state of emergency in the 10 provinces hit by the quake.

Change. The modification, the altercation, the altering. Basically something different. Change that you see in yourself and embracing that change. Change is uncomfortable. I like to think change is synonymous with growth. Because growth, it's an evolution. But more importantly, it's a process. And it makes me think of this track, "I Can See The Change" by Celeste. And in it she says, "I can see the change. Come what may, I won't regret today. I can see the change. Feel the pace of everything. Who am I? Teary-eyed? Who are you in your life?" See, we talk about change. We talk about wanting more, but we forget about the process. I've said this before and I'll say it again, "We ask God to grow, and then it starts raining." At what point do you say you want to change and you allow yourself to change? See, we overextend ourselves in different circumstances and different things saying we want to change, basically overselling ourselves and telling these lies over and over again. But what happens when they run out? What happens when you're all cried out? Do you stay the same? Or do you change? She says, "I can see the change better than I ever could before. I am what remains different in the same frame that I was." We have to remember that change starts on the inside and we have to remind ourselves to not get caught up on what's around us. "Don't let what you see make you forget what God said." Just because things haven't esthetically changed immediately that you want it, understand that it has to start with your mind process. So what's going on in the inside? Oftentimes, I feel what stops us from changing is that whole notion of standing out. She goes on to say, "Standing out. Like I need it now. Like a fool does. It doesn't mean I'll adjust..." that's my ellipses. Let the world adjust. A.k.a. be who you are. “What allows a diamond to shine are the multitudes of cuts that have been placed within it.” Cuts of shame. Cuts of mistakes. Cuts of disgrace. Cuts of things that may not show the "perfection" or so we think. But realizing that when we step in the light you are "perfectly imperfect." It also says that you're not afraid to be who you are. Half the time life passes us by because we don't want to be the fool. We don't want to be the one that stands out. But just like I've said before, "a star in the sky, twinkles in the sky at night and amidst all the blackness, it still stands out." So I'm asking you, "Can you see the change?" Better yet, do you want the change? The time is now. To be everything that you've ever wanted to be. Standing out in spite of everything. Just knowing that you can be free. I'ma be the change that I want to see. And I hope you will, too. Alright. That's it for your dose of "Vitamin D."

Natalie: Office Party . Natalie goes to a work party, and hooks up with a hot guy. by Traumseele. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. The office kitchen was somewhat cramped. A wall of microwaves, a couple of fridges, and a counter with two sinks was meant to satisfy the luncheon needs of the two-hundred-odd people who worked at this branch of Rodow-Mills Ltd., the corporation for which Natalie worked in purchasing. She was sat a round table, eating out of a box of noodles she had gotten from a takeout place in the neighborhood.“Are you gonna wear that tonight?”The question came from the short-haired woman seated next to Natalie. Lynn, her best girl friend and confidant at work since a long time back. There wasn't that much contrast between the two, they were very much alike in both looks and manners. Women of medium height, with dark brown hair and eyes, dressed in “business casual” which meant jeans, a blouse, and black leather ankle boots. The main difference between them was in their hair, Natalie's was curly and shoulder-length, while Lynn always kept it short and straight. Lynn also lacked Natalie's prominent breasts, being almost flat chested, something she was sure was a common conversation topic among the guys at work.“Why not?” Natalie responded. “It's an office party. Not like I have any new impressions to make.” It was true. Her job was fairly routine. She knew everybody in her department, and everyone worth knowing outside of it. “Unless you want me to slut up for a night on the town afterwards?”Lynn giggled. “I'm just teasing. You look great as always, Nat.” The short-haired woman took a sip of water from her glass. “I'm just thinking about… you know. I kind of want to hook up with somebody. I haven't done that at work before. Feels like something I should cross off my list at some point, if I had one I mean.” She took another sip. “Don't get me wrong but you're a lot more experienced here than I am. Got any beginner tips?”At first, Natalie felt a bit weirded out by that last comment, but then she realized that Lynn would never judge her for being a “slut” at work, and probably just wanted in on the action. She gave her friend a coy, thoughtful smile. “I don't really know what to say that, Lynn!” she responded with a hearty laugh.Her friend kept sipping water. She seemed nervous, for some mysterious reason. “Come on. You know it's true. I want to be just like you, Nat!” The last bit came out with a heavy dose of sarcasm.“Let's just enjoy the free booze and try to avoid the annoying people. You're gonna be fine. Besides, if one of these polo-wearing golfer guys were to try to steal you away from me, I would probably have to beat him up,” Natalie responded half-jokingly. Lynn was a real cutie, but Natalie just wasn't into women in that way, even though she would often masturbate to them. That was different though, women were just sexier than men. Didn't mean she was gay, not that she had any problem with that.The rest of the working day before the party went by as usual. Natalie sat in her cubicle, sending out purchasing emails and handing invoices over to payments. But mostly, she was just trying to pass time and look busy whenever somebody walked past. She had been to plenty of office parties, at this job and previous ones, and these things just didn't make her nervous anymore. She felt like she could already predict all that was going to happen that night. Free drinks, some speeches from upper management, maybe a forced “team building” activity or two, but most importantly, free drinks.Her friend's comment about her slutty work habits had bothered her a bit. Not because Lynn thought her to be a slut, she knew that she did and that was great, but rather quite the opposite. In truth, she hadn't really been hooking up with any co-workers lately. That was a frequent activity in her mid twenties, but in recent years, the dull routine and general feeling of alienation at the office had pretty much turned off her sexuality completely in that environment. Maybe it was time to live up to her friend's image of her? Not only was it a matter of principle, the prospect was also kind of exciting to her despite where she was at the moment, trapped in a grey cubicle.“Hey Nat, they got a new coffee maker downstairs. You have just got to check it out!”The cheerful voice was Diego, a tall, skinny, good-natured man with short black hair, olive skin, and a constant worried look in his eyes. He had appeared at the entrance to Natalie's cubicle to share some minor news about the office, as he often did. It was a welcome break to the dullness of the average day, she thought. Diego was a nice guy, always happy and helpful, and the two of them had formed a bit of a workplace bond over the last couple of years. Doing small favors for each other here and there, spending breaks together, having coffee.“You know what? I might just do exactly that. Wanna come?” she responded, and Diego's face lit up. She whisked her mug off of her desk, and got up from her chair onto her leather booted feet. Their 2-inch heels made barely any noise as the two of them walked across the wall-to-wall carpet that covered the floor of the cubicle farm, heading for the stairwell.“So… How are things?” Natalie didn't have to specify the “things” she was asking him about. It was a bit of a sensitive topic, so she didn't want to bring it up too directly. Diego had recently gone through a divorce, and was now adjusting to life as a bachelor again. It was difficult, as he had been married for a long time, and his meek, super-nice-guy manners weren't especially suited for living it up as a single in the city, she thought. Nevertheless, the divorce hadn't changed him much, at least not on the surface. He continued to be nice and cheerful, always notifying Natalie of “exciting” new happenings around the office, but she could tell it was bothering him.“Oh you know… Getting used to it. Got everything set up in my new apartment. It's a real bachelor pad, haha. Hey, there's the new coffee maker.” He didn't seem to enjoy the subject matter very much, so Natalie decided not to bring it up again, for now.As Diego had pointed out, they had arrived at the awesome new coffee maker in the downstairs break room. There was nothing special about it at all, as far as Natalie could tell. There was a holder for your mug, and the usual array of buttons for selecting the type of coffee you wanted the thing to fill it up with. It didn't really matter. A cup of coffee with Diego in the break room was always a nice and welcome distraction. They both knew that the “new coffee machine” was just an excuse to spend some idle minutes together, getting away from the daily grind. And so they filled up their cups, and took seats at a small round table.“Looking forward to the party?” Natalie asked, half-sarcastically. Diego was as much a fan of mandatory corporate fun as anybody else, she knew, and he especially didn't like big booze-fuelled parties. They made him feel anxious, he had confided in her once.“You know me,” he responded casually, taking a big sip of coffee. “I'm the party animal around here.” He put the cup down with a somewhat dejected smile, as if part of him wished for that statement to be true. “I'll stick around for a drink, make sure management notices my attendance, and then sneak out at my first opportunity before things get too rowdy. Got plenty of things to set up in my new place, anyway.”Diego looked wistful, and Natalie felt pity for him. It got worse when he tried to cover up his anxiety with a forced smile. Maybe she could convince him to stay, even help him find somebody to hook up with? Lynn was certainly in the mood, but Natalie had no idea whether he was her type or not. She didn't really know anything about her dating history, though Lynn knew all about hers, somehow. Besides, convincing him to stay at a loud, booze-drenched office party would be about as easy as convincing water to stop being wet. She dismissed the idea.A few hours later, the party kicked off. Most off the staff had gathered in the lobby for an exciting speech about the branch's promising future by their local chief of operations, and Natalie was already tipsy from the welcome drink. Something fruity, with booze in it. She didn't bother to find out more details.A delivery driver had dropped off boxes of pizzas and assorted snacks, which had been opened and left on a counter. A transparent fridge had been stocked to the brim with bottles of beer and wine, and a makeshift “bar” had been set up in the corner of the lobby for mixing cocktails. There, one could find the usual assortment of rum, gin, vodka, various mixers, and more. It would be her next stop when the speech was over, Natalie decided.When the half-hearted applause died down and the music started, she made her way over to the cocktail bar. There was no use being sober at an occasion like this one, so it was time to get herself a gin & tonic, or something equally strong. A small group of people with the same idea had gathered nearby. Thankfully, Lynn was also there, and so Natalie snuck up on her and embraced her from behind.“Hey there sexy,” she said, jokingly imitating a deep, masculine voice, as her arms wrapped around Lynn from behind, meeting just below her chest. Lucky girl, she never had to wear a bra, Natalie thought, as her own breasts burrowed themselves into her girl friend's back.A startled Lynn let out an exhasperated sigh, grabbing on to Natalie's arms as if to tear them off of her, but stopping right as her fingers grasped around them, holding them in place. “Oh hi there,” she responded, turning her head to give Natalie a playful peck on the cheek, after which she wrestled herself free. “Booze?” she asked.“Booze,” Natalie replied matter-of-factly.The two friends walked up to the bar, picking out a couple of sizeable plastic cups, and filled them both up with gin and tonic. Getting too sloshed too early at an office party was always a bad idea, so they kept the gin-to-tonic ratio low enough to still give them a decent buzz.“Talked to any hot guys yet?” Lynn asked eagerly.“Not yet… Need to get in the mood first. This office has a habit of drying me up like a desert down there.”Lynn giggled. “I know what you mean.” She took a big sip of her drink.“Unless you have any leads for me?” Natalie asked her friend, who got a strained look on her cute little face.“Yeah right. That means I won't get you all to myself,” she responded jokingly, with a flirtatious raising of her eyebrows. Her friend seemed to blush after that.“Shit Nat, I gotta go powder my nose. I'll find you in a bit,” Lynn said, and scurried off. Knowing the habits of some of her co-workers, “powder my nose” could be meant both literally and figuratively.Natalie walked around the office idly for a bit, stopping for small talk here and there, getting a glass of wine from the lobby, trying to figure out some kind of game plan. The booze did a good job at staving off the worst oh her anxiety, not to mention the general weird atmosphere of “forced fun” that office parties tended to have. Still, she found it difficult to loosen up, and seemed to have lost track of Lynn's whereabouts.She found her friend just outside the main entrance to the building, where people would go for fresh air, and others would go to ruin their experience with cigarette smoke. Natalie was not a fan of tobacco, and thankfully, her friend was in the former group.“Hey Nat! Come here! This is uh… Well, shit.” Her friend seemed to have forgotten the name of the handsome man standing next to her, whose presence Natalie had just noticed. He was about an inch taller than her in her boots, his head topped by slick dark brown hair, and a thin beard that accentuated his chiseled facial features. His broad shoulders were clad in a modest black dress shirt, and on his legs he was wearing a pair of jeans and black leather loafers.The man smiled, his face lighting up as he extended his right arm, inviting Natalie to a handshake. “I'm Konstantin. You must be Natalie I presume? Lynn here won't stop talking about you!”“Oh, it's all true,” she said with a laugh as she shook his hand. “Nice to meet you, Konstantin.” He was so hot. Natalie normally liked her men to be a few inches taller, but there was something about the way their eyes met almost level as he gave her his bright smile, full of confidence. His handshake had been gentle, almost romantic somehow. Natalie could feel herself starting to melt a bit. Well done, Lynn.The three of them made some small talk out in the fresh evening air, with drinks in their hands. Konstantin worked in sales, and was often out on client calls, which was probably why they hadn't met at work before. After a little while, Lynn excused herself and went inside, leaving the two of them alone in the midst of small groups of chattering, drunk coworkers.Natalie found herself at a loss for words. It wasn't typical of her. This hot guy was just beaming with confidence, something she would usually try to take down a notch or two, but he was so nice and considerate at the same time. He was filling in all the silences with questions about Natalie, seeming genuinely curious about her, and she answered as well as she could with brief statements while she tried to think of what to do next.“Do you dance?” she asked somewhat awkwardly, as the music inside got louder.“Love to!” Konstantin responded, still smiling. “Shall we?”The floor of the lobby had been cleared up, and the “office DJ” was running some tacky playlist on her laptop. It didn't matter so much. Natalie had two left feet when it came to dancing, and tried to focus on not making a fool out of herself as she tried to make subtle rhythmic moves. Konstantin seemed like a fish in water on the dancefloor. He didn't do anything extravagant, simply moving his body to the music as if it was second nature to him, constantly beaming with that hot smile of his.As the night went on, the dancefloor got more crowded, and Natalie got tipsier. She and Konstantin had been moving closer to each other the whole time, and by now, they were just inches away from each other. Anyone who glanced their way could see what was going on, but Natalie didn't care. People hooked up in the office all the time, and it's not like she had some virtuous reputation to maintain. She put her arm around his neck and leaned forward to whisper in his ear.“Let's get out of here. My place isn't far.”Over Konstantin's shoulder, she could see Lynn standing in the corner of the Lobby, nursing her drink. Natalie felt a little bit guilty about ditching her friend, but the look of approval on Lynn's face eased her worries.She leaned back, raising her eyebrows and looking into Konstantin's light brown eyes with intent. He was biting his lip. His hand found hers, and they walked outside.The air was electric as the pair stood in Natalie's dark apartment hallway. Natalie had just closed the door behind them, and was staring at Konstantin's silhouette as he took off his shoes, letting the outline of his hard body become clearer as her own eyes adjutsed to the lack of lighting. She pulled off her own boots, and stood on the floor in her ankle socks, anticipating this man's next move.It came suddenly. With force, he lifted her arms above her head, pressing them against the wall and kissing her passionately. She let out a surprised but excited moan, and tried to grab his head before realizing that her arms were trapped. He let go of her arms and let his ands explore her body all over, clumsily finding their way under her tucked-in blouse, caressing her naked body underneath all the way up to her bra-covered breasts. He squeezed them and dug his fingers under the fabric, trying to find her no doubt rock hard nipples.Natalie kept her arms above her head in the dark hallway, letting Konstantin explore her body at his leisure. He was pressed up against her, hard, grinding away. The bulge between his legs rubbed against her clit through layers of jeans and underwear, but it was enough to make her want more. She wanted him inside of her, badly now.Right then, Konstantin stopped, and took a step back. Natalie felt very confused. Was he teasing her? She wouldn't have any of that, not tonight. Flustered, she groped the wall, searching for the light switch.Her dark eyes squinted as light flooded the previously dark apartment. Konstantin stood before her, his face glistening with sweat and saliva from their sloppy kisses. He was sucking his lower lip in, hard, while giving her a puzzled look. What was he doing?“Natalie I… I have kind of a thing I want to do with you, if you don't mind,” he said after hesitating for many long seconds. The thing had better be to fuck her silly until she passed out from orgasmic pleasure, she thought, giving him a sly and expectant look. A nervous look washed over his face, as he continued hesitating.Natalie stepped forward, grabbing Konstantin by the hairs at the back of his head gently. She licked her lips and said, “tell me what you want to do to me,” hoping that the command would dispel his nervousness and hesitation.“I… You're so hot,” he said, pausing for another few seconds, caressing the side of Natalie's body up and down. “I'm going to cum in literal seconds if we fuck. Never been good at lasting long. So… I want to do that. I want to cum inside of you, and then eat my cum out of your pussy. It's… kind of my fetish.”Natalie interrupted him with another sloppy kiss before he could get too lost in his own thoughts. She had never tried that before, and at the moment, she was hot and horny enough to try just about anything. As long as it meant getting some dick in her. She unzipped his pants and dug his throbbing member out of his boxers. It wasn't the biggest one she'd ever held, but it was firm and already leaking precum. Her pussy was screaming to be filled up, so she unzipped her own jeans, and resumed her previous position, back against the wall with her hands above her head.Konstantin didn't seem to need any further approval. Within a second, he was back to ravishing her, kissing her neck, hands going all over the place. Her blouse became unbuttoned, and her bra unclasped, while her pants and wet panties slid down to her ankles. She moaned and reached down for his erect cock, jerking it faster and faster.He put one of his legs in between hers, spreading them apart as far as the elasticity of the pants around her ankles would allow for. They shared another sloppy kiss, tongues twirling around each other, as his cock slid easily up and all the way into Natalie's eager, dripping wet pussy. She could feel it bottom as her throbbing clit pressed against his hard pelvis, tickled by his recently trimmed pubic hairs.With his hands firmly grabbing her hips, Konstantin started fucking her, making sure her pussy got to feel the whole length of his cock, as he slammed hard against her clit with each thrust. Natalie gasped continuously, mimicking the rhythm of his thrusts. Their foreheads were touching, and they made intense eye contact.As he had promised, Konstantin's orgasm came quickly, after ten or so thrusts. His face scrunched up, and he grunted loudly, as his throbbing cock spilled load after load of hot cum into Natalie's pussy. She instinctively felt a bit disappointed, as she usually did when her partner came well before she was anywhere close herself. But then, she remembered the rest of his promise, and waited excitedly for his orgasm to subside.When it did, he pulled his dick out out of her, carefully replacing it with a hand, making sure to not let his seed spill out of her too much. Some of it was already dripping down her naked legs. She was a proper mess. Teary eyed, and with saliva glistening around her mouth. Her blouse was fully unbuttoned, and her unclasped bra was hanging around her neck like an albatross from an old poem. Konstantin's face was beaming. This was clearly his favorite part.Natalie didn't bother adjusting anything about herself in her current state. She simply kicked her pants and panties to the side, strode on sock-clad feet into the living room, blouse and bra still clinging to her upper body, and lied down with her back half on the couch, legs spread as wide as she could manage, a hand holding the hot cum inside her pussy. She motioned for Konstantin to get down between her legs and get to work, as he had promised.He wasted no time. Within seconds, he was on his knees between her glistening legs, lapping away at Natalie's cum drenched pussy with his eager tongue, making sure not to waste a drop of his own cum or her plentiful juices that it had mixed with. “Oh fuck,” Natalie exclaimed without even thinking. This was so hot. Maybe she should make all guys clean her out like this if they wanted to cum inside her? She finally knew why guys liked to put their fingers in her mouth after rubbing her pussy.Konstantin was, if possible, enjoying himself even more than she was. He was going wild, moaning and grunting, kissing the inside of her thighs and leaving big hickeys when he wasn't pressing his tongue between her pussy lips, making sure not to miss a single drop. With the way Natalie's juices were flowing, he would never be finished. That was fine, she could do this all night.She was pinching and tweaking her nipples hard, moaning like the slut she loved to be, when she almost passed out from a jolt of pleasure emanating from her clit. Konstantin had sucked it into his mouth like a vacuum, and was skilfully flicking his tongue against it in just the right rhythm. Natalie lost her breath as she started squirming, her body contorting on its own, legs wrapping around Konstantin's neck to force his face into her. Her thighs were pressed together so tightly that she was sure that he was suffocating, but that was a price she was willing to pay.The orgasm washed over her like a tsunami. It was so intense. Her thighs squeezed up so hard that she was scared of accidentally killing Konstantin. Waves of pleasure conquered her body as she lost control. She squirmed around, starting to glide off the couch as her juices flowed, giving Konstantin more and more cum, even though it wasn't his own.She came to, lying on the floor, a naked, quivering mess. Above her was the hot guy from the office party. His face was beaming again, almost looking proud of what he had done.by Traumseele for Literotica. -
