I haven’t had a great deal of time for blogging over the past few days, mainly due to the fact that all of my computer time has been spent sorting, organizing, and cleaning out the documents and images on my laptop. Jack recently earned a sizable bonus at his job, and generously gave me his [...]

I wish I had something fantastic to write, but last week was primarily spent doing my best to get over a sinus/chest cold, which I have now passed on to Aiden it seems. Jack was away on business during the end of the week, and spent the weekend in Banff with P. They had a [...]

December has arrived, and with it, our first *real* snowfall. Quite suitable I suppose. While I don’t always post a wish list at Christmas time, this year I thought surfing for gift ideas for myself and others might put me in more of a holiday mood. Books: To Love, To Obey, To Serve The Ethical [...]

Having just returned from spending four awesome days out in Vancouver, I’m reluctant to settle back into the daily demands of ‘normal life’ but settle back in I must. Details and photos of the trip are pending, but I don’t have the time or inclination to upload the pictures and relate all of the stories [...]

I know I’ve been away a long time, but I’m getting back on the blogging wagon by posting a review of one of my recent favorites. It has less to do with sex toys and more to do with having fun and getting down to it with your partner(s)! The Position Of The Day Playbook [...]

We had a fairly quiet weekend here at Chez Gibson. On Saturday morning V was so kind as to watch the children so that Jack and I could go out for brunch. We decided to drive to Mississuga to have dim sum at one of our favorite places. The food was great, we both had [...]

I don’t bruise easily. This is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, I rarely have to give up wearing tank tops (which are a staple of my wardrobe) nor do I have to explain unusual markings to friends, family, or children. On the other hand, the moon-shaped red welts which had graced my [...]

After the interesting adventure that was Friday night, I was really looking forward to Saturday afternoon and spending some more time with Varick. I arrived at Deja’s before he did, which gave her and I some time to talk. I filled her in on the incident with the police officer and she had a good [...]

Thanks to a good blogger buddy of mine, my attention was drawn to this incredible article on polyamory over a Freaksexual. I’d never been over to that particular blog before, but I’m certainly glad I found it. Check it out, it’s very well written.

It’s not often I am lucky enough to be asked to review a book. In fact, to date it’s only happened twice. This particular book is very special to me because I got to read it before it was available to the public (the very first edition) and because the author and I have become [...]

The first of the five new books I am reading this year was Anatomy Of Love: A Natural History Of Mating, Marriage, And Why We Stray By Helen Fisher. I’ll tell ya, this book is a S-L-O-W read. Normally I can breeze through a book of it’s size in a week or two, but this [...]

Recently there was a pretty good article published in an Edmonton magazine, about polyamory. Take A Peek! Considering how mostly-conservative this province is, I was pleased to see it. It’s not very long, and my only disappointment is that they only interviewed one family. Perhaps they couldn’t find anyone else who wanted to take part, [...]

I love to read. I think it’s one of my top five favorite things to do. Every time people ask me what I want for Christmas or my birthday, I usually ask for a gift card from a book store. Or when I want to spoil myself a little, I usually treat myself to a [...]

Sadly breakups seem to be going around lately. Here’s a little blurb from one of my new favorite sites, on the topic of breakups. Now It’s Time To Say Goodbye Now dear readers, what do you think makes a breakup ‘good’ or ‘bad’? Is there ever really such a thing as mutual breakups? Or is [...]

A sort of interesting little blurb about polyamory. I like the parts where she says that having an affair or being gay is more socially acceptable than having more than one love. LUST LIFE Polyamory By Stephanie Sellars

Is the Pursuit of Happiness Valid or Merely Self-Serving? A college professor who attended one of my lectures labeled the pursuit of happiness trivial, self-indulgent and self-serving. I don’t know what his experiences may have been but I have noted that when people are happy, they are much more loving, supportive and available to themselves [...]

O, the wonderful darling that she is, sent me a fantastic gift on Saturday evening after her date with Jack. She gifted me with a copy of Story Of O by Pauline Reage. I know, I can’t even call myself a proper submissive for not having already read it Anyway, I devoured the book, reading [...]

I just came across a truly fantastic bit of writing on the subject of poly over at Ducky’s blog. Please, GO READ IT! On Love, Relationships, and the Future I need to add this man to my links list immediately, he know what he’s talking about, and his new v-ish thing is doing it the [...]

I may be a little late for spring cleaning, LOL, but there are a few modifications happening on this blog that I wanted to announce. First of all, since I started this place, I have had it set up so that every post shows up on the main page. That way people could just scroll [...]

In all the recent ups and downs I have forgotten to post notices about my column. Yes I am still writing it, they have not revoked my poly card just because I have been terrible at it thus far. Here are the last two editions for your enjoyment: Fighting Fair Advanced Scheduling 101 Links to [...]
