So this weekend the CollarMe administrators removed two pieces of artwork from my profile.   Artwork that I created.   They say that they were copyrighted by someone else.   How FUCKED up is that?!?!?

I would *very much* like to find an age-appropriate dominant lady.   No twenty-somethings!! 

I'm looking for something that has potential ...

Something that I can build on ...

something that will last.

This picture really pushes my buttons:

Receiving corporal punishment while locked up would be a very powerful experience.

Feeling very thankful these days.  My life is full of love and goodness, and for that I'm extremely thankful!!

Last week I ordered a Curve chastity device.   After reading articles about and seeing photos of chastity devices for several months, it will very interesting to actually wear one. 

       I realize that there are some men here who send either cut-and-paste messages or one-liner greetings  to Dommes, and I realize how disrespectful that is, and how tiresome it must be.  I have never done that, and wouldn't consider doing it. 

      What I used to do is write a 3-4 paragraph message, with at least of half of it written specifically for that Domme.   I used to put a lot of time and effort into those messages.   And you know what?   They were very, very rarely answered ... or even acknowledged.  

      I know, I know:  Many women here get lots of messages every week, and I understand that it not reasonable to expect responses all the time, or even half the time.    But to have the vast majority of my messages not answered in any way is very discouraging.   Demoralizing, even.

      I always made sure that my messages were respectful and informative.  I would have really appreciated a quick "Thank you for contacting me, but I am not interested at this time due to (whatever reason)".    But no.   Nothing.   Complete blow-off.

      I am sure that there are many, many men here who have had the same experience.

      So now I write half a dozen well-composed sentences and ask the Domme to read my profile.  I always close with something like "I'd be happy to answer any questions or supply any additional information.   I look forward to communicating with you."

Have you seen Karen Finney on TV?  She's on MSNBC sometimes.  She is a former Democratic Party communications director.   She's a big, tall woman.    She has beautiful, tawny skin and incredible dark, flashing eyes.   She has a real way about her.  An air of authority.   I can totally imagine her in a Female-Led relationship !

The other day I found a video online entitled "Amber Olsen - Disciplinarian."   Ms. Olsen looks to be in her mid/late 20's at the time.   You don't normally think of women her age as being confident and authentic disciplinarians, but she certain seems to be.    A very intense video!

I can finally say that there some things to be cheerful about happening in my life these days.  

One of them is that today, I'm going to Phoenix to spend some time with my friends & family.

Finally coming out of the dark & difficult times, I think.

Its been a very challenging year.   I've suffered many losses and set-backs, of both financial and personal natures,  in the last 9 months.

If its really true that whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, then I am going to emerge from these tough times with the power of Hercules.

I think there's a 'bot' that's creating new profiles on CM.   There are a ton of twenty-something "dommes" coming on to this site that have one pic of a beautiful young woman. 

Yeah, RIGHT.

This last domme certainly had some issues!  She was very good at blocking and misdirection, so my spidey sense didn't go off at first.   But ultimately I was able to discern that she didn't really like men.
