I like the feeling of soft tickling. My grandma used to tickle my back when I was at her house with her long fingernails as we watched cartoons. Now I simply adore the sensation of soft caressing tickles. They travel up and down and all around my back, touching just enough into my stomach area to make a breath hitch in my throat because my belly is a tickling zone that makes me laugh and giggle uncontrollably. These tickles sometimes travel up and down my arms and memorize the contours of my hands. They pass over scars and sometimes end up on my legs where I giggle softly when they touch the backs of my knees or the tops of my feet.

And sometimes I tickle those annoying little itches you get on your hands and feet and arms and backs. I tickle them and they tingle and itch and it feels so strange.

I also tickle my lower back, where the skin is soft and sensitive, with the corner of my blanket until the tickling sensation turns in a soft pinpricking pain that tingles through the area. It's nice and strange and I enjoy it oh so much.
