Stiletto Diaries

Has anyone seen my writing mojo??? I’m considering putting up some ‘Missing’ posters and offering a reward.

I’m still Twittering actively, and recently I’ve started using TwitPic to share photos. Take a look here to see the boots I got over the weekend, the fire wands I made, and a shot of my boobs from above.

Life has been…full, and wonderful, and busy! Deja stayed with us all weekend. She and I went to a shoe party and I got a fabulous and sexy pair of boots. We also put together our costume for Halloween and plotted out our plans for the coming weekend. Jack and I are going to The Sex Show on Saturday, and I have volunteered to bottom for Deja in the dungeon for a little while, so that she can do some demonstrations on me. Then she’s staying the night at our place and we’re going to a kinky Halloween party on Sunday.

V got home yesterday, and it’s been wonderful having her back. We missed her terribly. She and I watched Run Fat Boy Run last night, and what a really great movie. We laughed really hard, and it was very inspiring.

I’m hopeful that I can pick up my laptop today, and then I think I’ll just put up a summary of the time my friend was here, along with some photos and leave it at that. I hate it when I feel as though too much time has passed between an event and blogging about it. At any rate, there WILL be posts and there will be pictures. Of course I’ll get to that after I’ve spent at least an hour cuddling my laptop and apologizing for all of the times I took it for granted or went to bed angry after taking out my frustration on it’s delicate keyboard.

I’ve decided to participate in NaNoWriMo, although on my own terms and not necessarily those set forth by the official website. I’m crap at writing fiction, so rather I plan to pound out 2,000 words of non-fiction per day, every day in the month of November. At the end I will have a rough draft of the book I’ve been talking about writing for ages. Likely I shall post the odd excerpt here on my blog for your perusal during the writing process.

With all of the play parties and kink events happening over the next three weeks, I am certain I shall have plenty of fun and sexy stories to share. Plus I’ll have a proper laptop on which to write them

One of the most unfortunate aspects of blogging, at least for me, is during periods when I have little going on, there is always plenty of time for writing.  When my life is filled with excitement and adventure, I generally lack time and inclination for blogging completely.

Recently, I’ve only been able to schedule myself snippets of time, early in the morning, in which to write.  Sadly, I often end up staring blankly at this ‘Write Post’ screen, searching for the right inspiration.

I’ve always blogged when I felt the desire to do so.  In the past I could be potentially found tapping out words on my laptop at any time in a 24 hour period.  I’ve written in the middle of the night, on airplanes, at picnic tables in the middle of nowhere, during sunrise, and sunset, and every hour between.

Lately though, I just haven’t had the time.  There just seems to be so much going on, so many interesting things to do, I don’t feel like sitting in front of my computer for hours.  Not only the blog has been lacking, but my online friendships have too.  I’ve reduced or completely eliminated regular communication with most of the people I keep in touch with via the internet.  It’s unfortunate, but I’m just really enjoying being more active, working on getting my house set up exactly the way I want it, and spending time with my kids, my husband, and my friends.

Speaking of the house, it’s coming along marvelously.  V has been helping me sort through everything we had ’stored’ in the basement and in the garage, which was basically everything that hasn’t been vital to survival during the past year.  We’ve uncovered boxes of memorabilia from high school, containers of toys we forgot that we had (much to the delight of the young ones) and every manner of knick knack and oddity you can imagine.

Thankfully there is a yahoo community called FreeCycle here, which allows you to post unwanted items, for free, so that other people can take them.  It’s the most wonderful service ever!  We gave our crib away to a young couple who are expecting a somewhat unplanned babe, and it felt really, really good to know that they love that crib just as much as we did.  They really needed it, and I was happy to give it to them.  People take all sorts of things that you would never imagine them wanting!  I’ve freecycled a box of random cleaning supplies, used bike helmets, a well-loved gerbil cage, a hideious chair, and even cardboard boxes.  Seriously, if you have stuff to get rid of, look for a FreeCycle group in your area!

We’ve also been putting a lot of effort into eating better and exercising.  The bike that Jack bought me for my birthday already has more than a few miles on it, and our fridge looks like we shop exclusively at farmer’s markets.  V and I have been experimenting with recipes and cooking to keep things interesting, so we don’t get bored of all the vegetables.  We bike ride as often as we can (before the weather gets too cold) or we workout together in the basement.

There is the most beautiful bike path, not far from my house, which we rode down just the other day.  I didn’t bring my good camera, so I had to use the Blackberry to snap a few pictures, but these should give you an idea anyway.

The sunlight was filtering through the leaves of the trees, and it was a warm day, perfect for bike riding.  I plan to take a walk down there once the leaves are really turning, with my camera, so that I can get some autumn photos of all those gorgeous trees.

Now that both of my kids are in school (one of them every day and the other 2-3 days a week) Jack and I have decided to have regular lunch dates during the week, in order to take advantage of my kid-free time.  He works some distance away, but there are plenty of great restaurants in the area, so I can drive over and meet him in the middle of the day, and we can spend some time together.

I have company coming out from Alberta at the beginning of October for almost a week.  I haven’t seen this particular friend since April, so I’m greatly anticipating her visit, and the opportunity to show her around the GTA.  She’s not in-the-know about our lifestyle, so it will be all vanilla activities, but it doesn’t matter to me, I love a good wine tasting and touring Niagara Falls, etc.

Tomorrow night is Blue Man Group with Jack, and we may end up going to the Toronto Zoo this weekend before fall really sets in.  The Great Barrier Reef has exhibits set up right now, and touching a sting-ray is on my list, so I am hoping to manage that one during our visit.

I have no plans to stop blogging any time in the foreseeable future, but I do need to continue devoting more time to actually living my life rather than writing about it.

I’ve started three or four blog posts this week. I wanted to share our adventures of last week, and then I wanted to let you know what is going on with us. Each post felt forced, unnatural, and not genuinely me at all.

My desire to write is still strong, but for the moment, the right words just won’t come.

I hadn’t wanted to let on much about our plans for the summer, but at this point, I think it needs to be clarified before I can make any headway working through my current thoughts. I am writing this at a picnic table in Alberta, beneath a shade of trees, under the warm sunshine. The kids and I have made the trek out west to visit with family, while Jack remains back home in Ontario until next week.

We’ve had a great time here thus far. I got to feed a giraffe at the Calgary Zoo, and my family owns a heap of lake front property, where I am currently staying. Hot afternoons spent swimming, followed by fishing at sunset and evening walks by the water. My son caught his first fish, and it was a big one. Probably close to ten pounds. He was thrilled, but terrified, and insisted that I throw it back lest it might ‘get him’.

It’s so peaceful here, far from civilization. I drive to the community store with the windows down and it’s just like I never left the country. There are birds everywhere, and yesterday afternoon a family of skunks sauntered across the lawn like they owned the place. You have no idea how adorable baby skunks are until you’ve seen one in real life.

There were two young deer, probably last springs babies, who were hanging out near the garage here. We got so close I could almost reach out and touch them, before they bounded off into the trees in search of less crowded surroundings.

I’ve been taking a fair amount of time for myself out here. Last night us adults took the big boat out, while the sun set over the lake. Some of them fished, while I stretched out with my book and basked in the fading glow of the day. It was wonderful really, so quiet, only interrupted by playful snippets of conversation. I hadn’t realized how much I missed my family until I got back here.

The separation has been straining for Jack and I. In the days leading up to my departure, we squabbled several times. Since I’ve been here, we’ve had one pretty substantial fight, which carried on all day via text message, only to explode that evening via several phone calls. The day ended with apologies and tears (mostly on my part since I was actually in the wrong). I’d practically ruined his day out with Mz. F which left me feeling guilt-ridden and embarrassed.

Speaking of Mz. F, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to you my dear. I acknowledge that I was selfish and inconsiderate of you on Saturday night. I apologize, and I would like to make amends by acting my age and leaving Jack to have fun with you for the remainder of your time in Ontario with him.

While being out at the lake is lovely, I don’t have internet access here. I am going to be able to access a wireless network this evening, long enough to get this posted and to check e-mail. I have to drive several miles from our cabin in order to make a phone call, never mind get online. We plan to spend the weekend here, so if I am slow to approve comments, forgive me. I may be out here into next week, since the kids and I are so enjoying it.

I’ve been texting with Varick, who has been unexpectedly sweet. Last night he told me he wishes I were there, and that he misses me. Naturally it thrills me to no end.

At some point, I would still like to tell you about the fire play adventure, and our night out at Goodhandy’s. It’ll just have to wait until I am feeling more like myself.

I won’t declare an official hiatus from the blog, but it will be sparse until into August. More developments will be posted as I am able.

Apparently one of the plugins I added yesterday also allows for the display of Gravatars, which is a globally recognized avatar that will show up by your name when you comment with the e-mail address attached to it.  Many WordPress blogs and Blogger blogs will display gravatars.

It’s super easy to get one, and you can keep a bunch of different ones on file over at Gravatar. Com which allows you to manage them easily.  The sign up process basically requires only your e-mail address and a password, and you’re set!  They allow you to crop/re-size any image for use as a gravatar.  You can keep multiple images in your account and change them as often as you wish.

While this isn’t vital information, I thought it was worth mentioning.  I’m just getting to know more about WordPress and some of the interesting features it has, so I thought I’d share with readers, particularly those who comment regularly, in case they were interested in adding an image to their names

Since no one found my chocolate butthole link worthy of comments or LULZ, I’ll just bore you with some more blog housekeeping items!  So there!

First, I’ve decided that in an effort to be more accessible to readers, I would get an MSN Messenger account for use with this blog.  MSN is marvelous in that you can use pretty much any e-mail address to sign up for this service, so you can add me to your contacts list using my regular contact information, which is stilettodiaries at gmail dot com.  Feel free to add me if you like.  I am going to make a point of being online there as often as I am able, for chat, to answer questions, or have group discussions.

Second, I’ve been browsing around some other blogs, and I’m wondering how you guys would feel about the ability to leave voice comments here?  Is it something you would use?  There is a service that provides voice commenting for free, and basically how it works is that you record your comment via the mic on your computer.  Apparently I can also use Skype for call-in comments (I know very little about Skype, feel free to educate me if you wish).  Do you think it would be worth it to bother?  Can I see a show of hands?  How about just vote in the poll then

Also, I’ve discovered another blogging tool called Skribit, which enables you to put a box in your sidebar where readers can suggest topics they would like you to write about, and readers who would like to see content that has already been suggested can add their ‘me too’ by voting for the proposed topic.  What do you think of that?

Really the goal here is to make Stiletto Diaries more user friendly and perhaps a little more ‘interactive’.  I don’t want to go adding a bunch of stuff that my readers think is crappy, cluttersome, or useless.  I would really, really love to hear at least a few opinions on some of these proposed add-ons.  You guys have been really great with some of my past questions, so I’m hoping for more of the same

Also, if you just want me to stop dicking around and stick to writing more ‘interesting’ content, feel free to say that as well in the comments section, LOL.

Added:  I have also installed some plugins for comments.  You will now have the option to subscribe to comments.  I now have the option of replying to your comment directly (your comment will post with my reply underneath) so hopefully this will result in more discussion/interaction on the comment boards

Added II: Really I should not post until I am done tweaking.  Anyway, I’ve also added a plugin that allows you to reply directly to other commenters.  The replies will be posted in a thread, so that commenters have have discussions with each other more efficiently.  Enjoy!

Good Morning Peeps!

I just wanted to cover a couple of blog-related additions/tweaks I’ve made around here lately

First, you may have noticed a couple of daily posts recently called “A Little Birdie Told You”.  These are daily digests of my Twitter updates.  Why bother having them post every day when they already appear in the sidebar you might wonder?  Well for one because the sidebar only displays the most recent three tweets, so if you aren’t checking the blog several times a day, chances are you’ll miss some.  For another, because I now have my Twitter synced up with my phone, which means I can update it while I am out and about, which will really be more exciting during events like Padme’s trip out here, my nights out at Goodhandy’s, or my drive across the country with V.  Basically, even when I can’t sit down and blog, I can still keep track of what I am doing every day, which should also reduce the number of hiatuses I take here at SD.

The Twitter digests have their own category in the sidebar, under Daily Microblogging

Another interesting feature of adding Twitter to my phone, is that people can send me text messages without me having to give them my cell number.  Basically if you have a Twitter account, simply post a message in your update that begins with @ShastaGibson and it will come straight to my phone, even if we don’t follow each other.  If you don’t have a Twitter account, now it a great time to get one!

There was also that Password Mailing Listpost a couple of days ago, which was basically an explanation of how this password protection system was going to work, and a sign up sheet for people who want access to those posts.  This is working out very well so far.  I’ve done a test run of it, to make sure that the passwords were working for people and that no one could see any of the other e-mail addresses on the incoming messages.  Rest assured that your private information will remain totally confidential, and that you won’t receive any mail from me that is not directly related to a posts on this blog.

I will be posting ‘reminders’ every month or so, for the benefit of new visitors, or readers who didn’t sign up the first time, and who change their mind later on.  If you have already commented to be added, please do not comment again on these future posts regarding the mailing list.  Once is enough :)  The list is already 40 people long, so it will be difficult for me to keep track of who is added and who is not, which means if you sign up twice, don’t complain if you get two e-mails from me that say the same thing, LOL.

I also respectfully request that you not share passwords I send to you with anyone else.  Your significant other is one thing, but I’d prefer that you not send it to friends.  If I discover that too many people are entering the password (Wordpress has internal stats on such things) I will shut down the mailing list and password posts will only be open to immediate, real life friends.  If there is a password post that you think your friends would like to read, encourage them to come and get on the list.  When I send out new passwords, I generally include ‘retro’ passwords as well, for people who may have missed out on them previously.

I think that’s about it for now :)  If you have any feedback you wanna share about the site, navigation, widgets, etc, please feel free to share!  I appreciate thoughts and ideas that might make the blog more functional and easier to use/enjoy.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, Jack and I ended up having to postpone our dinner plans at Susur until later this week.  It was unfortunate, but not nearly the end of the world since we are indeed still going for supper there, we just have to wait a few days longer to do so.  It’s actually worked out for the best because I am getting over a head cold and if I’m going to spend $140 on a meal, I’d like to be able to taste it.

I apologise as well for the password protected entry that I posted some days ago.  I really do not intend to make a habit of such things, because I really enjoy being able to share parts of my life with all of you.  That said, there were times over the past 2.5 years when I was unable to blog about particular people or topics due to the sensitive nature of the circumstances or individuals.  This was distressing to me, because at the end of the day, blogging is something I do for myself, to work through thoughts or feelings, or even to keep an accurate recounting of events.  Jack and I often refer back on the blog where there is discussion about a certain time or place and we can’t remember what or when, we’ve even used it to figure out who was driving the vehicle when one of those pesky photo radar speeding tickets arrived in the mail.  Perhaps this doesn’t mean much to anyone who doesn’t blog, but for me being unable to retell certain feelings or events due to people in my life who would read it means that there were a lot of really important words I never managed to type out. 

Yes, I could have kept them as separate word documents or even written them in my paper journal, but for some reason that just never materialized.  Would it have under different circumstances?  Had I been able to blog about it more openly would I have gotten around to really doing so?  Maybe, maybe not.  The point is that the option wasn’t always there, and now that I have moved (to Wordpress publishing tools with paid hosting) I have a way to write what is on my mind and sometimes keep it to myself.  I don’t do this to exclude everyone, and if you feel strongly enough about reading it you’re welcome to e-mail me about getting a password.  I promise I won’t do it often, since that’s not what this site is about, but I can’t promise I’ll never take advantage of that particular option.

On to more interesting tales now that I’ve cleared that up

Last night Nia and I went to another Sex Party at Goodhandy’s.  We met up with her playmate, who clearly needs a name I’m thinking, before we went to the bar, since things never really get going until after 10pm.  Before I continue lets come up with something to call said female friend…hmmm…Flavia.  Makes me think of flavour, which I’m sure she has since Nia spends so much time between her legs.  Hee Hee

So Nia and Flavia and myself arrived at Goodhandy’s and were immediately greeted by Todd, who remarked that now the party could really get started (since the party girls had arrived!  Woot!).  We got drinks and he encouraged us to go and watch the two very attractive young male models/porn stars who were masturbating on either side of the stage.  Being quite keen to encourage them we did just that.  An ex-boyfriend of Nia’s from years and years ago also decided to join us on our night out, although I’m not going to bother giving him a name at this point, so we’ll just call him Nia’s ex.  The four of us sat and chatted, and enjoyed our drinks, us girls frequently gazing at the naked eye candy on stage.  While we were sitting there the lovely couple whom I played with at the last party came in to the club.  They saw me right away and came over to give me hugs and say hello.  She was wearing this very hot corset and I remarked on how fabulous she looked.  I was hopeful that they would be inclined to play again later in the evening but I didn’t want to be pushy.  We agreed to run into each other again later, and off they went.

Meanwhile Flavia and Nia and the ex-boyfriend decided to kick off the spontaneous orgy, or at least a very hot and public threesome for the enjoyment of the crowd.  Some of the males who were watching got a little close, and had to be asked to back off a bit, but nobody had to be thrown out.  Todd is particularly protective of anyone who chooses to play and asked me to let him know immediately if anyone was being bothersome to our group.  In fact throughout the night the bouncers approached me several times to ensure that none of us were being harassed.  It really adds to the atmosphere when you know that you can be comfortable and that the staff there take their jobs very seriously when it comes to ensuring that everyone is well behaved.

One of the male models, who had since put on at least some of his clothes, approached me and introduced himself.  He was really, really attractive, and I was very tempted to accept his invitation to get naked with him.  As much as I wanted to say yes, especially when he asked so charmingly in that yummy accent of his, I politely declined.  Don’t ask me why, I just wasn’t in the right state of mind I suppose, and having intercourse with strange men is not generally a service I provide, no matter how gorgeous they are.

He wasn’t the only one I turned down.  Another of the regular models/porn stars, who was clearly drunk, approached me as well, introducing himself and asking if I wanted to play with him.  I let him kiss me a little before I said no.  Even though he was adorable I don’t like to fuck drunk boys, especially as I said above, drunk boys I don’t know.

The male half of the couple I mentioned early happened to be standing next to me at the bar sometime later in the evening, and leaned over to ask me a question.  The conversation went like this:

Him: So my girlfriend wants to know if we’re going to have Round 2 tonight?

Me: I don’t really know that it’s up to me actually (meaning it was up to them) but I am pretty sure I wouldn’t say no.

Him: Alright, I’ll tell her that

Then I smiled and returned to my friends, expecting to see them sometime shortly thereafter.

Unfortunately I didn’t, although they caught up to me as they were leaving, and after giving me hugs she remarked that she hoped I could play next time.  Confused I said that I could have played, but had assumed they didn’t want to.  He seemed surprised and asked me to clarify what I had said at the bar.  When I told him that I’d meant to imply it was up to them, there were groans of disappointment all around.  We had a bit of a laugh about it, although clearly we were all quite sad that the miscommunication had prevented a good time for all.

“We’ve been talking about you for the past 29 days!” he remarked, smiling but obviously a tad frustrated over the entire situation.  I reassured them, her in particular, that I had certainly not intended to reject that and that certainly I had been eager to play.  Turns out neither of us wanted to be pushy about anything, and in the process, had missed out.

She gave me her number and I promised that I would make my very best effort to attend the next party that they are able to come to as well (which unfortunately isn’t until the end of June, due to other life commitments they have).  We wished each other a good night and they left, followed shortly by the four of us.  Nia was staying in Toronto with Flavia, and I assumed her ex was as well, so I bid them farewell and drove home to my husband, falling into bed exhausted sometime around 4am.

The entire way home I stewed with annoyance over the missed opportunity, and debated in my head the proper thing to do at this juncture.  She gave me her cell number, which I didn’t ask for, she offered.  I really want to call her in a day or two and apologise again for the miscommunication, and assure her that I wasn’t rejecting them.  Then I kind of want to ask if they ever play away from Goodhandy’s?  Like could we all meet up for coffee or something and maybe get to know each other better?

Advice please!  I have no idea what the best course of action is in this situation.  I really, really want to see them again, since I find both of them very attractive (now that I had a chance to get a good look at him).  To any couples out there who are swingers or poly, what would you like a girl you are clearly interested in to do if she and you were in this situation?  The future of my interaction with them, and thus the potential for more hot stories about our fun, depends on you.

Today was a day for relaxation and recovery.  Jack took the kids and I into Mississauga to go to the new Earl’s restaurant that just opened there.  Earl’s was one of our all time favorite places back in Alberta, so we were very excited to hear that one was being opened in Square One Mall this month.

Before we had dinner Jack indulged me with a shopping spree at Lush.  I picked up a couple of small chunks of Ice Blue and Sea Vegetable soaps, which I have heard are good for dreads, so that I could try them both and see which one I like better.  After some more browsing I decided to pick up a couple of their massage bars, which I haven’t had the opportunity to try yet.  When you buy two of them you get a free tin to keep them in, so I went with Wiccy Magic Muscles (for all those sore spots after hitting the gym) and Fever, for those sensual massages I sometimes give to Jack before bed.  Yum!  The girls who worked there recommended I try the Mask Of Magnamintywhen I enquired about trying something new for my skin.  I wouldn’t say that I am prone to breakouts all the time, but I certainly notice them more before my period, so this is apparently just the treatment to have on hand for those times.  No visit to Lush is complete without picking up some bath bombs for the mammoth tub we have.  This time I picked up a Sex Bomb(so good, one of my favs) a couple of Waving Not Drowning and an All That Jaz.  I had to pry myself out of there before I really got out of hand, but I was very pleased when I left with my bag of goodies.

Dinner was really yummy, and afterwards we took the young ones for ice cream.  It was actually a really nice way to end the weekend.  I think I’m going to have a nice hot shower before crawling into bed tonight, since I’ve spent to much time writing about the weekend, and eaten up all the time I had intended to use for having a bath.

This week I am hitting the gym every day, and Thursday night is Susur.  I’m planning to call that nice couple once you guys give me some feedback on how to handle that conversation :P  Or even if you don’t, LOL, since I don’t want to miss out again.  Should be a fairly quiet week overall, and I’ll keep you posted on developments for next weekend!

It’s been a week…a week without posting.

I suppose I should have predicted that I wouldn’t have much time to blog with a ton of life responsibilities piling down the pipe at me like some sort of twisted avalanche.

Really I’ve not minded that much, except I miss blogging, and chatting, and generally having a life that does not involve drilling holes in things and rewiring light fixtures and painting and staining and sanding and attaching things to every manner of surface found in this dwelling.

Today I sorted through our CD collection, and I discovered that Jack is secretly a 40 year old lesbian. Seriously.

As V once said (with a smirk) “Jack is the only straight guy I know who would ever utter the words ‘You know, I really like Celine Dion’ and actually mean it.”

He’ll probably kill me for telling you that by the way, but it’s worth it.

So aside from the house related stuff, there are also a ton of party plans in the works. Due to one of the organizers having a bit of a life crisis, I’ve taken to helping out a lot with getting things done. Since I have a friendly business-type relationship with some of the people over at Happy Hedonist, they have generously helped us with advertising and attracting more guests. Local networking is very important, and so we’ve been very pleased to receive some assistance and sage advice from the site owners when it comes to holding big sex-themed social events.

Also there are all those god damned penis chocolates to make. I think I have like 50 or so done now…

I helped stuff gift bags a few nights ago. Imagine 200 cock rings, 600 condom, and 150 bottles of lubricant all over the place. It was a lot of fun. The guests at this party are going to be spoiled rotten with all of the great stuff they are giving away. I even donated a glass dildo to the cause, as a door prize.

Anyway, I should be asleep, but I wanted you guys to know that I am not dead, or abandoning my blog, or anything else. Just crazy busy. I booked my next appointment for waxing so I’ll let you know if my second experience with the new gal goes as well as the first one did.

Hopefully I can also get some of my reviews caught up. I feel like I’m falling terribly behind on everything that isn’t either involving this party or my house.

Ah well, only a couple more weeks to go and then it should all settle down.

I started to write a post here earlier today, but it just seemed lame and not at all interesting to anyone but myself. So, I deleted it and now I am grasping for something to write because blogging has become something of a ritual for me and when I go too long without it, I start to feel a little crazy. You know, more than I usually do.

Have I mentioned that I haven’t even had a cup of coffee yet today?

Why is that you ask? Well I am out of cream and I just can’t bring myself to pour regular milk into my cup. A very sick child prevented me from simply nipping ’round to the store to get some cream. Then I though “Hmmmm, maybe I could just do without it today…I mean, it’s not like I’m an addict or anything. Not like I’ll curl up in a corner and mumble about organic shade-grown dark roast goodness while I drool and rock back and forth. I can go without coffee…I’ve done it before…for like, 3 hours even, that one time, way back in ‘93 I think it was…” See how bad my sentence structure and grammar were just there? That happens in my brain all the time. I just pretty it up on here for you guys, since my thoughts never include commas or periods.

So, in other words, the day has been ridiculous and mostly useless. I wandered around for a while. Ate some stuff. Collected all of my sex toys from the dressers, bathroom towel bar, under the bed, and from the recesses of my attache case, and piled them up in one place. Then I sorted, bagged, and organized them into the two 31 gallon storage lockers I have for holding such things. Yes, I bag my sex toys. Individually, in re-sealable bags, with labels. IT KEEPS THEM CLEAN OK! Plus some toys will leech color and other chemicals into each other if they are touching, and then there is the degradation of some jelly and rubber toys over time, and you know what, just call me a freak.

Once that was finished I made a couple of phone calls that needed making, and then started fishing for blog post ideas again.

My weekend was crazy busy. Nia and I spent most of it holed up in various parts of the house, doing our best to get more paint on the walls than we did on ourselves, or the ceiling. I am stiff and sore today, but it feels good to finally be making this house more my own. Generic paint colors make me feel so…plain, totally NOT myself.

This seems to be the month of Getting Stuff Done so I likely won’t be blogging as heavily as I sometimes do. Luckily I have a whole pile of reviews waiting to be posted, so you shall not be bored in my quasi absence.

The Peripheral Males are also still on the radar, just no time these days for dates. I’ve promised all of them that I will somehow make some time for coffee or drinks or whatever. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Mr. Latent Dominant Tendencies (not his official blog name, HA HA) works out, even if the others don’t, because I’d really like to have someone to play with and go to kink events with. He seems the best match at this moment, but who knows what he’s like in real life.

I hope everyone has a good week. This has been the longest Monday of my life! Thank the Gods it’s almost over…
