On the Lighter Side of Romance
One of the most pleasurable parts of having this business is when our readers or customers send us their interesting insights into relationships, struggles or successes in their marriage relationships, and just general observations about our site, our products, and our services.
Just recently we received the letter below from a couple who purchased our Liberator Wedge/Ramp Combo. Expecting their comments to be a general report of how they are enjoying it, we were stopped in our tracks by their letter, which they have given us permission to share.
Our hope is that you will enjoy it as much as we did when we first read it.
You will just love this one...
"As of this morning, The “RAMP” became the latest addition to my 6 year old daughter's First Grade class's "Shapes Museum"!
Our daughter found it behind our bedroom door this morning and was amazed at its size (as big as she was)! As she pondered it, her eyes lit up and she begged us to let her take it to school to add to her class’s collection of shapes they are working on! “It will be the biggest one, Dad!”
My wife was horrified! All she could think of was that someone at the school would eventually read the zipper tag ("Bedroom Adventure Furniture") or try a web search on the LIBERATOR tag name to find out how to get maybe more such "shapes" (and discover the expanded use ideas)!
Not being one to want to disappoint inspiration, I got the idea to remove the plush cover. Well, guess what? NO IDENTIFYING TAGS! Best of all…it was PURPLE...ONE OF THE SCHOOL COLORS!
(Oh, it must have been meant to be!)
Well, I just happened to have the day off that morning and was able to drive my daughter and the RAMP to school (did I mention it must have been meant to be?). My daughter and I delivered the RAMP to her teacher, who was simply amazed at it! “Its, so big, and so many shapes in it! The class will just love it!”
The now innocuous looking item presently stands as a monument to large triangles and rectangles in my daughter’s classroom! Its new official title: "TV Watching Floor Cushion!” We hear the kids could not wait to try it out! And no one is the wiser!
Our only concern now (other than when will the kids give the RAMP back to us!)is if someone decides to ask us where we got it, or where they could get more “TV Floor Pillows” like this! We have decided that should the occasion arise, we will mention the price first! If the interest continues, then we will add some of the other details discreetly. If shock does not set in, and interest does, we will (of course) direct them to your website!
Will the uses never end? Enjoy the laugh, and thanks for a great product! Maybe someday, if we ever use these things for their intended purposes, we will let you know how it goes (then again…maybe not)!"
~ Sincerely yours, C and M, Wisconsin.
No, that's not even their initials! (They made us promise to hide their identity. And for a story this great, I would have named them anything they wanted!)
UPDATE!!!
We have just recently received an update from C & M in Wisconsin. They have graciously said we can share it with you, our readers.
"Well, its been 6 months of "long-time, no-hear" so I decided to drop you a line.
I stopped by the web site again just for a quick snicker at our story. What kills me is that it is such a great gut buster of a story - but there are so few I can tell it to (almost none, by my wife's orders)!!! And for a story guy like me, it is divinely kept secret, because it it KILLING ME not to tell it!
Well, school got out finally and the RAMP has made its way back to our home. Our german daughter (exchange student 17 yrs old) did comment on night at television (when everyone was fighting over who could watch tv with the "pillow") that they do not have such interesting floor furniture in Germany. Discretion prohibited me from correcting her (your website, I am sure, is available!), or from explaining its "alternate" use other than a "TV Watching Floor Pillow" (which, by the way it does work very well as.....also helps camouflage its actual use from the kids. Can't wait for that day when they get older, the lights turn on in their heads, and get totally creeped-out when they realize what else this "floor pillow" has been used for)!
We have been able to break it in a few times and it is quite comfortable and versatile. Without getting into too many specifics, it has added a bit of flavor and intimacy options to our times together. 'C' is not generally a "toys" person, but this has certainly become an interest item for her as well. WE love it!
So there, we did give a testimonial finally on its intended use! Oh, yeah, and by the way...it also worked as well as I predicted it would when sinus problems and allergy attacks flare up with my wife or I!"
Thanks, you two. We appreciate people like you who share life's wonderful and amazing stories!
