There are some "no"s on this list I plan to turn into "yes"es for you... :P

[joreth]

Oh really? You think so? Which ones?

[tacit.livejournal.com]

#10, definitely. #37 might be fun, especially in combination with #10. #94 is interesting, too.

I'm not really sure how it's possible to make someone dizzy simply from kissing. I've gotten dizzy while kissing in the shower, but that's because the heat and humidity made me black out - a symptom of my low blood pressure.

It's the lust, not oxygen deprivation, what does it. :)
