The rope class went really well. Hysteria was packed. The best part was that everyone came prepared to learn. They followed instructions well, weren't afraid to speak up if they needed an assist, and had a lot of fun with it. Even the people who came solo were able to get some practice in. We covered everything I'd outlined in the class description, and a few people who stayed late got to learn a couple of additional rope tricks.
The next class will be Dec 6 at Hysteria and will be on spanking. |

We had a fun CBT lesson today for Miss Narcisse, a new apprentice at Pavlovia. We covered a number of C&B restraints, predicament C&B bondage, urethral play, impact, clips and a little bit of hot wax play. Miss Arcadya joined in to help teach and the three of us had a blast for a couple of hours with a very gracious and funny volunteer practice bottom. |

|
|
|
|
I'll be out in Minnesota Sept 4-8 (or so) for the Pony Play Championships, teaching a couple of classes. Or are they workshops? What's the difference? I do like there to be as much hands-on participation as is safely possible when I teach. Anyway. I'll be doing that, there, then. Pavlovia will be closed during that week. |
|
|
|
|
Miss Arcadya is graduating from her apprenticeship this Sunday, August 24. We'll be having her Skank Mitzvah at 2pm at Cafe Netherworld on that day and Fred Norman will be coming to present her with a flogger. His are the best. Come help us celebrate! |

We're having a big fetish party this Friday to celebrate the end of a great year at our dungeon. DenverFetish d0t c0m for info |

Dominate is a verb. Dominant is an adjective. A verb shows action: I will dominate him. A noun is a person, place or thing: I am a dominant.
I am not a dominate female. I am a dominant female. I am also a snarky grammar whore. I'm OK with that. |
|
|
|
|
If you've no-showed us for a video shoot in the past, you will not be considered as a model at any other time. Video shoots require a lot of coordination and setting up and if one person doesn't show up, all that time and effort is wasted. We won't invest it on your behalf a second time if you've blown it the first time. |

Thunder was tremendous, exhausting fun. I worked my butt off on dungeon setup crew and I also got to do a 4-way scene where I topped three people. That was intense and mind-blowing and unbelievably fun. |
|
|
|
|
We're not going to be taking any sessions this coming weekend, Friday through Sunday. Most of Pavlovia will be at Thunder in the Mountains volunteering our butts off helping with the conference, as well as going to workshops and the play parties. |

A couple of days ago, I took my 'little girl' (an adult male) to see Kit Kittredge. Afterwards, I bought her a big popup book about fairies. Then we went to the Doll Museum. We were both in street clothing the whole time and we didn't do any actual playing, but it had the feeling of a scene nonetheless.
Yesterday, I did some rope bondage on someone I hadn't seen before. I also tested out a new, extremely thin cane on him. I like people who like stingy implements and who appreciate rope skills. |

Lady Kenyon of Pavlovia is teaching a class on play piercing at The Sanctuary tonight. |
|

I was in San Francisco last week and got a new singletail at Stormy Leather. It's braided rubber. Haven't had a chance to try it out on anyone yet. I anticipate instant marks. |
|
|
|
|
We had a great in-house training on fire play and cupping today. We made fire wands with dowels and skewers everyone got to keep the wand they made. One of the stunt bottoms got to get some practice in, too, and was a great sport for the blood play part of the cupping lesson. |

Israel-san's Eros ad went up on Friday and he got his first session on Monday. He's the first male pro dominant in Colorado and he's very skilled as well as being great at making people comfortable with him. He gets this glow when he tops that lasts for hours. His eyes are just lit up and his skin radiates. It's an amazing thing to be around. |
|
|
|
|
The party last night at Tabu was amazing. I think the highlight for me was having one woman tied up from shoulders to ankles and picking her up by the ropes and tossing her around. I was sitting on a chair at one point and was able to reach up to where she was standing and haul her off her feet and down over my lap. That was SO much fun! |
|
|
|
|
I took a crossdresser shopping for shoes and lingerie a couple of days ago. I won't shop again at the one store we have that caters primarily to crossdressers, so we went to the Fascinations store in Glendale, next to Shotgun Willies. They carry shoes in larger sizes. We ended up getting a pair of shiny black Mary Janes in a 12, as well as some seamed stockings and a matching garter/thong and bra set in an extra large. The staff there was fantastic: they were very professional and helpful and made the sissy with me comfortable, which was a pleasant surprise for him. He was expecting to be embarassed about trying on shoes and lingerie there, but the staff was superb. I'm definitely going to be taking crossdressers there again. |
|
|
|
|
I wicked my Sinagpore cane last night in anticipation of playing today. I wanted it nice and limber so it wouldn't crack. It's over 4' long and about as thick as my index finger, possibly as thick as my thumb. The sound it makes when it cuts through the air makes my heart flutter and the sound it makes when it lands makes me swoon, and that's just the aural impact. Looks like I'll have to wait for another day to use it, though. *&#@ no-shows! |
|
|
|
|
I'll be doing a Toybag Tour (Show and Tell for kinky grownups) for Gateway at the DenverSanctuary this Saturday March 22. I use a lot of things most people would never consider using for S&M play. This'll be a good night to come get your brain tickled. |

I will never shop at Studio Lites again. I've been ripped off twice in a row and that's enough. I've shopped there for 12 years and I'm done. I will be giving CJs Leather as much business as I can. They can make or repair any leather garment or item you've got. |
|
|
|
|
I appear to have developed a new bondage interest: escape artists. I was at a play party Saturday night and had someone in a tie and he asked to get himself out of it. I didn't think it was possible, so I sat back to watch him fail miserably. It took him about half an hour or more, but he worked at it and eventually got out of the ropes. I'm looking forward to more challenges to my ties. |

|
|
|

I had lunch with my RACK Room studio mate Themistokles and his girl Kamasushi the other day. I never realized before that her and my hair color is almost an exact match and totally undyed. They introduced me to Korean BBQ, which was fun. The place was right next door to a Fascinations branch, so we got to go toy shopping after. What toys does he NOT have? He has a bigger collection than me. I did get a rope bondage book by Two Knotty Boys and some nifty pink nipple clamps for our sissy salon, though. |
|
|
|
|
That was the best New Year's Eve party I think I've ever been to, if I do say so myself. And I do. The new space is perfect! |
|
|
|
|
I've gotten to play twice at our new space so far. It's weird, having all my toys spread out over such a huge space. Weird, but so very good. I'm looking forward to being able to play a LOT on NYE. |
|
|
|
|
I was beginning to think it'd never happen, but Pavlovia's new 3,000 square foot dungeon is now ready for sessions. Our crossdressing salon and clinic won't be ready for probably another month, but we have 8-9 other play areas that are good to go. |
|
|
|
|
Thanks to everyone who's offered to be a stunt bottom for Pavlovia's novice dominants. We've got plenty of people now for them to practice on. The training sessions are going fantastically well. |
|
|
|
|
I'm looking for some male bottoms/masochists that can be available some weekday afternoons for training sessions for two new members of Pavlovia, a male and a female. If you're comfortable with having a male top learn and practice BDSM techniques on you, please contact me. |

And in our free time, we'll be working on our new space and seeing clients. Where's my massage slave? I'm going to need her! |
|
|
|
|
Tonight (Saturday Oct 6) I'll be at the Sanctuary demonstrating electroplay goodies with the unbelievably well-equipped Themistokles. I anticipate learning a lot from him. He has some amazing stuff he makes himself, as well as a huge collection of electroplay toys he's bought. |

Monday Sept 3 - 8th Annual Goodwill BBQ at Congress Park from 1-5pm. Free to leather community but donations accepted. |
|
|
|
|
I'll be in Minnesota Sept 7-9 for the Pony Play Championships conference. I'll be teaching several classes there, as well as getting to ride Trigger the Human Equine for the first time. I'm definitely getting video of that! - - - On Saturday, Sept. 8 Pavlovia (minus me) will be appearing at the Master and Servant after hours fetish party at the Sanctuary. |
|
|
|
|
Pavlovia will be appearing at the Victorian and Fetish Ball on October 27. We'll be performing as well as playing in the VIP dungeon all night. |

We got a bajillion new toys from the vendor fair at Thunder, including another TENs unit. Haven't even had a chance to try them all out yet. |
|
|
|
|
DenverBound is putting on a shibari minicon in October and I'm on a lineup of three presenters. One of the other two is Jay Wiseman. I can't believe I'll be on the same lineup as Jay Wiseman. I die. I believe I'll be teaching cupping. |

I literally beat the pants off someone last night at the Master & Servants after hours party. The fly was already undone (made it easier for cock and ball bondage) and I used the flogger to nudge them down little by little til they were around his ankles. A high heel hooked around the waistband took the boxers the rest of the way down. |
|
|
|
|
Boulderites: Fascinations has Achella floggers for about 1/4 of what they cost at most Denver stores that carry them. Pavlovia will be at the Boulder Fascinations store on Friday, July 13 from 7-10pm demonstrating beginner-level BDSM techniques. This is a great opportunity for couples and newbies to learn to spice things up safely and to get some high-quality dungeon toys at a very good price. |
|
|
|
|
I've been nominated for a position on the board of directors for Leathermagick, a leather community resource that raises funds and distributes them to members of the leather community (and their families) who are in need. I accepted the nomination and I'll likely be serving as the Volunteer Coordinator for the group. |

The graduation party was a blast! We had it catered and I surprised the grads with Fred Norman, a master flogger maker who came to the party. Each grad got to pick out a flogger and got a thorough explanation of how each was made and how to care for them. I also honored Miss D, my first apprentice and my collared submissive, who received her own flogger. They bought me a surprise, too: a hydraulic exam chair. The grads got each other gifts as well, and afterwards we had a great play party. Miss Bandita did one of the hottest scenes I've seen in awhile, tying two gorgeous young men together and tormenting them. Miss Venom did a couple of sizzling scenes herself, which made me blush to watch. I gave my own Miss D a heavy corporal scene. She asked for lots of marks and she got them.---- We're going to have to have another party like that very soon. |
|
|
|
|
Keep an eye out at all Fascinations locations in Colorado over the next two weeks: there'll be banners and posters and flyers at every Colorado location advertising Pavlovia's in-store demo on Friday, July 13 at the Boulder location. This fun, educational event will be free and open to the public and is a great opportunity to learn correct ways to use the kinky toys that are sold at the store. They have fantastic deals on Achella floggers. |
|
|
|
|
The apprentices of Pavlovia are graduating July 1 and I'm throwing a party for them to honor their year of training, working, performing, volunteering and helping me teach at the demos, workshops and other events we've done. If you've been with us on our journey (you know, actually met with us in person and gotten to know Alethea, Bandita and Venom), message me about participating in this celebration. |
|
|
|
|
Pavlovia is appearing at Tabu tonight for Caliente, a women-only fetish event in celebration of Pridefest. We'll be in the VIP dungeon all night long doing perverted and wonderful things to all the hot, kinky women. Doors open at 8pm, tix are $18 at door. |
|
|
|
|
I'm working on learning the takatekote or shibari box tie. It's an upper body tie that forms the basis for suspension bondage, so I'm making sure I get it right before I ask the nawashi (shibari master) to help me learn to progress to the next steps. Getting it wrong is easy. Getting it right is a whole 'nother thing! |
|
|
|
|
Exciting news for Pavlovia, my house of domination: we're going to be doing an in-store demo/class for Fascinations, the sex toy superstore. We'll be covering topics of interest to the kink-curious: bondage, sensual spankings, hot wax play, sensory deprivation and more. This is a great opportunity for us and we're all very excited about it! |
|
|
|
|
Just about all the Pavlovians are registered for ThunderintheMountains, Denver's biggest fetish lifestyle event. It's not til July, but we're already preparing, planning scenes, deciding what dungeon furniture to loan to the conference, shopping for new outfits, getting our volunteer assignments and so on. It'll be Miss Venom & Miss Bandita's first Thunder, Miss D's second (she was my first apprentice) and my fifth (or sixth?). |

June 9 - Another after-hours fetish party at the Sanctuary. Pavlovia Denver will be working the party again, showing off techniques and introducing newbies to more of the fun. This is an invitation-only party, so if we've met and you're interested, message me to get your name added to the guest list. |
|
|
|
|
Starting at 9pm on Friday, June 8, the Enclave is hosting "A Taste of Leather" with (from their announcement) "the Best of the Best in the Colorado community" running stations to give attendees samplings of various forms of play. I'll be there running one of the stations with assistance from two or more of Pavlovia Denver's finest. Also from the announcement: "This event is being sponsored by WICK'D, but is NOT a WICK'D night! The proceeds will go to the Enclave legal defense fund. The customary $15 door fee will be charged for the mixer. Tickets will be purchased at the door to experience the stations. They will be $3.00 each, or 4 tickets for $10.00. Each station will charge one ticket for the taste. These will be short samples, not lengthy sessions. If you wish to feel more than just a 5 minute or so taste, you can always buy more tickets. <grin>". This is a great opportunity for non-members to check out the club as well as to experience different kinds of play and to meet like-minded people in your community. |

PavloviaDenver has a full color, full page out in the latest issue of DDI (Dominance Directory International) and it looks fannnntastic! We've got more bookings from it than ever! |

Mummification & sensory dep. I was talking today to a client of mine who's been seeing me for a few months. She gave me some feedback about our last session, telling me how the effects went on far past the time we were together. -- For our last session, I did a full body wrap (black vet wrap - flexible, breathable, self-adhesive, doesn't stick to body hair: God's gift) on her with a little added sensory deprivation in the form of a headwrap and some earphones. She'd really enjoyed our first session with her on my modular, padded suspension table, so I put her back on that after I'd gotten her partially wrapped up. I finished wrapping her up after she was on the table, tucked a lovely thick blanket under her feet and around her body, and dimmed the lights. I sat with her the entire time, keeping my hand on her body most of the time, and keeping the platform swaying just enough to add to her trancey, floaty feeling. Sometimes I'd make the platform sway side-to-side and sometimes I'd make it sway back-and-forth. Every time I gently shifted the direction or rhythm, she'd giggle a moment, then go back to her quiet, deep breathing. She could just barely hear the music (I might've been playing a Tom Waits cd) through the headphones and was completely blissed out in her swaying cocoon. About midway through, she felt my hand shift on her body over the blanket and murmured that she felt so cared for. That was exactly what I was going for, too. -- She told me today that she kept that state of deep tranquility and relaxation well into the next day, til late afternoon. I love knowing that I can do that for someone and give them such a healing experience. (This was written with the express permission of the client) |

Party Monster is going to be HUGE tonight. DJ Keoki, James St. James and Amanda Lepore are just a few big names on the long list of celebs we'll be sharing a stage with. Me and all the other dommes of Pavlovia are going to knock their glittery little socks off. -- EDIT -- The party was fantabulous. We did our balloon/blowgun act and we rocked it. Combining S&M with performance art is the biggest rush ever. |
|
|
|
|
Two of my house dommes at PavloviaDenver - Miss Bandita and Miss Venom - earned Heartsaver CPR certification in April. We're also receiving private shibari lessons for our whole house of domination, and our ropework is becoming more beautiful as well being a highly effective form of bondage. We keep raising the bar for professional standards of domination in Denver so our scenes will always be safe as well as hot. |
|
|
|
|
Upcoming events I'm working: May 12, Master & Servant after hours party. May 27, Medieval Feast and Play Party fundraiser for LeatherMagick at the Sanctuary. June 8, Leather Carnival fundraiser at the Enclave to benefit Leathermagick and the Enclaves legal defense fund. |
|
|
|

I need a male bottom who can take some heavy CBT for a training session for two of my apprentices. We'd need you for a couple of hours this Sunday 4/29 or next Sunday (whatever that date is) in the evening. You should have experience receiving heavy CBT and be sober and healthy. |

I've done a couple of speaking engagements at CU Denver this month. One was for a polisci class panel discussion on the topic of sexual minorities and civil rights. The other was for a human sexuality class. Both went very well and I've been asked to serve on the Speakers Bureau for the campus, which is a great honor. |
|
|
|
|
I'll be at DomConLA and not checking msgs or email from April 5-9. |
|
|
|
|
The Sanctuary was fun tonight. I wasn't volunteering, for a change, and I got to play a little and get out my voyeuristic ya yas. |
|

I realize that in the realm of fantasy and roleplay, some people lose sight of the fact that there are actual people at the other end of the computer connection. They want what they want and they want it to be easy, convenient, and exactly what they want. And if they decide they want it from another person, it doesn't always matter whether that person is offering it or not.
If you don't want a session with a pro domme, don't approach one. If you don't like the fact that we're not available 24/7 for free to give you exactly what you want, no strings attached, that's not for lack of us communicating very, very clearly about the ways we are available. Getting angry and insulting is grossly immature. Save yourself some trouble and us all the nasty attitude and try reading a profile for a change and seeing if your wants and needs genuinely match up with the wants and needs of the person whose profile you're reading. If not, move on.
Don't want to be a client? Not a problem. Don't want to be in videos? Not a problem. Want to be a service slave but don't have the required references and experience? That's a problem. Want something we're not offering, on your terms? That's a problem.
Your inability to read and comprehend clearly-written English does not entitle you to be abuse or a cyberstalker. Your disillusionment does not entitle you to be abusive. Grow up and move on. |

|
|
I'm attending DomConLA April 5-8. I'll be presenting a workshop on Needle Play, Suturing, Stapling and, if there's enough time, Saline. Am lining up practice bottoms so dommes can get hands-on experience with these materials. |
|
|
|
|
I'll be performing at KinkAnEvent (d0t c0m) on March 18 at Spa Audio Therapy. Fetish Diva Midori and Kumi will be performing, as well as a number of other acts. I'll be running the playroom with my apprentices, the Dommes of PavloviaDenver. Tix for the event are available for presale at Raves, Fashionation and Hysteria, and will also be available day of show. Contact me with any questions |
|

Miss Venom and I will be doing demos this weekend at the Sex and So Much More show at the Colorado Convention Center. The Denver Sanctuary/Gateway Denver are hosting the dungeon, and community members will be presenting demonstrations all weekend in the dungeon. Ron Jeremy and Jenna Jameson are appearing at the convention as well. |
|
|
|
|
Upcoming weekend: Doing a Toybag Tour for Gateway on Friday. Performing at Heartbreakers Fetish Ball in Ft Collins on Sunday 2/11. And, as always, video shoots and sessions. |
|
|
|
|
I'm swamped right now by offers from people who'd like to be in videos. If you have experience as a bottom, if you send me an email with your name and a photo (not a nude photo, either: one with your face), and you are not just looking for a free session, you'll stand a better chance of being invited. Shooting dates/times are limited and people with high pain tolerances or other unique characteristics will be invited to be filmed ahead of other applicants. |

The dangers of having a live-in sissy maid: They get days off. On those days off, you may wither up and die from waiting for them to bring you your morning tea. You may go into shock at seeing dishes in the sink. You wonder if the mail's come yet and you have to go and actually look. Yourself. You also can't let the dog out the bedroom door and have him reappear a few minutes later, tail wagging and bladder suddenly empty. You'll wonder if your mojo is broken when you don't have your little pink non-winged (may have to fix that) fairy appearing every now and then to ask, "Is there anything I can get for you?" Ditto on the mojo when you speak a command into the air and NOTHING HAPPENS. The bathtub does not automatically fill itself with exactly the right amount and temperature of water. I have had to turn on dungeon lights and heat MYSELF. And if you want to go anywhere, you have to drive yourself and then carry your own shopping and unpack it and everything. If I break a nail, I'm going to lose it, I swear. |
|
|
|
|
I have a new live-in sissy maid for a few months. I'm looking forward to learning a more formal style of Ds. |
|
|
|
|
Set up a Yahoo Group for PavloviaDenver, my house of domination. Schedules for myself, Miss Alethea, Miss Bandita and Miss Venom will be regularly posted on there for those wanting sessions. A website for Pavlovia Denver d-o-t c-o-m is on the way. |

NYE - went to a swinger's BDSM-themed party and did shibari on a _ton_ of people. |
|
|
|
|
We're shooting a smoking fetish video today with Miss Alethea as the top. Play party tonight! |
|
|
|
|
After months of intensive, formal training, my apprentices are ready to start seeing submissives for sessions. Bandita did her first session yesterday and LOVED it. |
|
|
|
|
Did a violet wand demo for WICK'D last night. Got to do some zapping on several people, including my lovely demo bottom, Musesa, and I also got to light quite a few people on fire, which is always a good time. |
|
|
|
|
I'm now volunteering as a Gatekeeper (host) for Denver Gateway, as well as volunteering at the Sanctuary on the nights when the Catherine Wheel Academy meets.- - -
Apprentice training continues to go very well. Miss Bandita is turning out to be the true sadist of the group. She's also exploring shibari on her own and is making rapid progress. Miss Venom seems to be the most versatile and sensual of all three. Miss Alethea seems to be the most intuitive, which is a key trait for a dominant to possess. She's also the most verbal, which is no easy feat, as the other two are also highly intelligent and articulate. I'm really enjoying the way their individual styles are developing. |
|
|
|

Sunday, November 5: I'll be performing at Stripped & Whipped at Club Static in Ft Collins. Doors open at 9. |
|
|
|

I presented a workshop at RioGrandeLeather over the weekend. The title was "Elastic Materials for Bondage and Fiendish Fun". I took two of my apprentices and a sissy slut down with me. I did an amazing water bondage scene in the hot tub and a saline infusion on the sissy slut in the dungeon. I'd been wanting to do both of those for a couple of years, and it was great to be able to fulfill those fantasies. |
|
|
|
|
I've got videos up on Clips4Sale now. Categories are Female domination, spanking, tickling and humiliation. |
|
|
|
|
Two of my apprentices got caning training Friday night. They took to it very well, making no mistakes and leaving their practice bottoms very, very happy. |
|
|
|
|
I've taken on three apprentices. They're all college students and all slim, brunette, sober, lovely, highly intelligent and extremely kinky. Two are switches and one is domme-only. All will be available for supervised sessions for the time being. They each did some research on me before approaching me, knowing that they were going to want training from the best. They're definitely getting that! |
|
|
|
|
Three Legs Good play party tonight at my house. Thought I'd do a mixed-gender thing for a change. Maybe the next one should be mixed-up gender as the theme. |
|

Sept 23, Pueblo BDSM group - Presenting a workshop on needle play and surgical stapling play. Event is not open to the public. |
|
|
|
|
September 2 at the Enclave: I'm doing a demo on fire cupping and suction cupping for PEP. Doors open at 7:30. Must be an Enclave member, PEP member or guest to attend. |
|
|
|
|
I'm doing a Sidewalk Sex Clinic with Annie Sprinkle, former porn star and prostitute turned activist and performance artist. Event will be during the day on Wednesday, September 20 on Auraria Campus' quad. Students will be welcome to approach Annie Sprinkle, myself and two other sexperts to ask advice on sexual matters. Event is sponsored by a womens student group on campus to promote Take Back the Night awareness. |

Hosted a fantastic women-only play party at my house last night. Was packed with kinky women doing freaky things. Got me all jazzed up! |
|
|
|
|
I'll be performing tonight - Thursday, August 17 - at MystiqueErotique(.com), a women-only fetish party at Tabu. |
|
|
|
|
I'll be in NYC August 9-14. I'm teaching a workshop - Fun with Surgical Stapling (for temporary body art, sensation play and predicament bondage) - on August 12 at Purple Passion, as well as teaching a couple of private advanced technique workshops. I'll be using a few different dungeons in Manhattan for professional sessions, so check with me ahead of time so I can reserve dates.
I have two hot, new female apprentices now. One is 19, the other is 21. Both are slender, very pretty, highly intelligent brunettes who'd been actively seeking formal training for some time. They've been training with me for about a month now, and are fast learners and I have every reason to believe they'll become excellent dominants. For the time being, they're only available for supervised sessions and have learned quite a bit of bondage and corporal play techniques so far.
I'm attending Thunder in the Mountains again this year. Looking forward to the medical play workshops. I'm DMing this year for the first time, which means I get to be an officially-sanctioned voyeur. Yay!

My apprentice, who has been my primary female play partner, occasional coworker, performance partner and model for photos and videos for the past year, is moving away from Denver. I'm frequently asked to take on new apprentices, but I only take on one at a time. Since I'm without one at the moment, I'll be keeping my eyes open for another. My last apprentice was practically perfect in every way, but I've had worse luck with others. As a result, I'll be asking my next apprentice to sign a contract defining the terms of the apprenticeship. This isn't a relationship I'll take on casually and I'm not interested in giving new girls a crash course in the professional side. Think carefully before inquiring. |
|
|
|
|
May 21 performance - finally decided what I'll be doing and my girl is excited about bottoming for it. Now I just need to perfect a new skill: hitting targets with a blowgun.
|
|
|
|
|
Performing May 21 at Club Static in Ft Collins. Haven't decided what I'll be doing yet. |
|
|
|
|
Performed 3/25 at Scarlet Ranch. The crowd loved the violet wand and were a lot of fun to interact with.
The 3/23 show at Tabu (Mystique Erotique) was fantastic. The dungeon was packed and the stapling fashion show I did went off without a hitch. |
|
|
|
|
Performing 3/23/06 at Mystique Erotique, a women-only fetish show. I'll be doing Wardrobe Staples for the fashion show and violet wand and fire play in the dungeon.
The event will be at Tabu nightclub above Diamond Cabaret.
|
|
|
|
|
Performing at Club Static in Ft Collins on 2/12, 10pm. I'll be doing an anti-romance/kill Cupid scene as well as a couple of others. Other performers will be doing shibari and body decoration with hot wax. |
|
|
|
|
YAY! Suspension frame installed today. Now I get to start learning all the ways I'll be able to use it.
Also got a NT device made for me recently. It's wicked. |
|
|
|
|
The new inversion rack is FUN. It's a bit clunky, but the legs spread out and it's been modified in other ways for kinky purposes. It may even be good for my back. |
|
|
|
|
Still no suspension rack, but I got a pillory table today. It's a horizontal/flat pillory that's also a dinner table.
I should be getting an inversion rack over the weekend. |
|
|
|
|
Seems like I've been waiting forever for my new suspension frame to be installed. The new room is ready for it, but the frame is somewhere in the ether. |
|

I'd like to say it's astonishing, the number of people (all males) who want to play with me, but see that I'm professional and decide that they resent having to pay. I have personal slaves and am not interested in taking on more right now. I don't play casually. Nobody is obligated to pay me a single thing to play with me, and I am not obligated to play with anyone, personally OR professionally, just because they want to. Instead of people behaving like adults, though, and understanding that nobody's entitled to anything from another person, I get insults and attitude. If any domme says NO to an applicant for any reason, it's not such a big deal. If someone who's also a professional turns someone down, it's because we're cheap, mercenary, etc. So listen up, guys: I have my hands full with my personal slaves. I am very busy professionally, too. I am not looking for more personal slaves, I am certainly not in the market for a new live-in. If you want to explore some other option, let me know, but flinging attitude at me because you feel entitled and aren't getting what you want isn't going to do either of us any good. |

Had a womens play party at my place last Friday. It was a blast. I got to do some fire play with a cute newbie girl. I've been practicing fire play with wicks (cotton swabs) instead of my violet wand lately, and have been enjoying it a lot. My houseboy really loves it. |

Today's creative writing effort AND my dinner:
Ode to Schtoo
Do you want schtoo? I think you do. Schtoo and you. Woohoo! Schtoo! It's hot, of course, like any schtoo. It's cooked all day: no need to chew. There's onions, peppers, chopped squash, too. And not just any herb will do. Rosemary! Sage! Peppered roux! Chili peppers? Yes, a few. I like zippy, tangy schtoo. Get out a spoon, heck, get out two! There is no imminent lack of schtoo. Invite a friend, invite a crew. Bring a crowd, I'll feed them, too. Everybody likes beef schtoo. Dip in, it's hot, be careful, you. |

Grr. What I thought was a new pedicure slave is not turning out to be reliable. He did really pretty work, too, and was just generally seriously good with his hands. I'm a hands-o-phile, too. Digiphile? Maniphile? Dextraphile? Whatever's the technical term for "sucker for a seriously good pair of hands". Anyway, my toes are two weeks past their use-by date and no fresh toes are in sight. I'm supposed to see someone in a couple of days who wants a trampling scene, but I don't know how much I can enjoy it if I'm looking down (can't put a spike heel through an eye, no sir, not after what happened last time) and seeing chips and rough skin through the sandal straps. Sure, I could hit a salon and pay $50, but they don't even kiss or lick or nibble while they work. What fun is that? |

A friend took me shopping today at a police supply store and an army surplus store. I got a lightup handcuff key at the cop shop, as well as an itty bitty keychain maglite, and I got some other nifty stuff at the surplus store. It's been an expensive day. The lightup handcuff key is something I've wanted for months, and I'd only found disposable versions online. The one I got today, though, is not disposable, so I'll be able to replace batteries when they've worn out. They also had a chapstick-sized pepper sprayer with a keychain loop. I'll save that for another visit. |
|
|
|
|
I've been having an exceptionally good time lately with someone into interesting body mod who's also learning to give a really good pedicure. Playing with him's been recharging my batteries in a big way, and I'm coming up with ideas for new things to do right and left. I've sewn jingle bells on plenty of people, but he's the first one to ask me to do it slowly. This is going to be fun! |

So I'm at my friend's birthday party last night, having a fantastic time, hanging out with a bunch of my domme friends and chatting with everyone's subbies. This kid (23) that had offered himself to my friend to serve at the party was distinguishing himself as the most singularly unhelpful service slave in the history of voluntary service slaves. He'd been told when he called to offer himself that he'd be expected to work at keeping things running smoothly, to serve guests by bringing them food/drinks and removing debris, as well as tidying up, doing dishes as needed, and so on. He was not the only service slave there, but he was the only one that was sitting comfortably while guests were standing, eating before others had been served, interrupting conversations with excruciatingly boring and tangential comments. He couldn't complete a task without demanding micromanagement. "What should I do with this steak after I find something to store it in? If it stays here on the counter, it'll go bad." "Where should I put the clean dishes?" And bizarrely, "Do you need a Ryder truck tomorrow?" Every question came in the middle of some task he'd been specifically given, and appeared to necessitate his intruding on a conversation, lounging at feet, and interjecting his own long-winded opinions and experiences. He followed the dommes and a few chosen submissives to the dungeon, and sat watching, questioning and commenting while play was happening. When asked why he wasn't serving or busy elsewhere, he'd mumble a response, and stay where he was, or wander off for a moment, and return almost immediately. He wasn't even on the same floor as the kitchen. He asked repeatedly to be played with and to get a dungeon tour. He needed a handler to direct him from moment to moment, and in the absence of one person taking on the task (and not able to enjoy the party at all), he got on everybody's nerves pretty equally.
All the while, another service slave who hadn't even officially been asked to serve at the party was collecting used dishes, cutlery, glasses, tidying up the buffet, washing and drying dishes and stacking them on the counter if he didn't know where they went. He wasn't asking for praise, applause or acknowledgment. He saw what needed to be done and did it consistently and competently. He didn't call attention to himself and was comfortably unobtrusive. He was given a lengthy break at one point by a switch friend who took him to a comfy couch and made out with him for awhile before sending him back to whatever he was motivated to do. When the evening was done, he sat on another couch with the birthday girl and got cuddled and petted and appreciated while the other guy was quietly told he was high-maintenance (what's that mean, exactly, he asked, and he didn't just mean as it applied to him) and that S&M did not mean Stand and Model.
I could go on and on about the myriad ways he was annoying and complete ineffective, but I think I've communicated the gist. He'd offered to come audition as a domestic service slave at my place and is due in mere minutes, and I do not have the energy to tell him 20 times which side of the sponge to use and whether comet should be rinsed off, so ... I think I'll turn him away if he shows up. Grr. |

My cat thinks she's a dog. She retains a few cat priveleges, but she wags her tail, follows the dog and I on walks, and the rare times she purrs, it's barely audible. Doesn't like tuna or cat treats, either.
Got such an interesting IM earlier from some guy who's made it his mission on earth to 'bust pro dommes looking for johns'. Goodness, what provocative language. His approach to me was some rant about how he'd never pay to see photos on websites, and don't I have any free photos? Clearly, he's just casting his nets widely, hitting an occasional mark with pro dommes who do have pay areas on their sites, cuz mine doesn't have one and if he'd bothered to look, he'd have seen that. People like that remind me (ever so slightly, mind you) of racists who misspell words when they're spraypainting grafitti: It's hard to feel hurt by someone who's that much of a dip, ya know?
Will save ranting about poor misunderstood pro (and lifestyle, dammit!) dommes. If you absolutely must know my thoughts along these lines, we'll have to negotiate some limits before we set up that particular scene.
Speaking of random neural firings, I really need to make friends with someone named Todd so that if he ever asks for a favor that involves me dealing with other entities on his behalf, I can approach those entities and say with utter honesty, "I'm on a mission from Todd." I do have an ex named Todd, but I'd rather not do him any favors. I really want to use that line, but not if it means doing something for him. I'm a reasonable person, and I don't need to get that nutty for the sake of a silly line. I suppose it could work if some friend named Rod needed something done, but I think 'Todd' just adds that little extra bit of silliness I think would work best in that situation. No disrespect to Todds intended. At least, not much. |

Just learned to do subdermal saline injections, catheters and suturing today. Also watched a gastro/nasal tube scene. If you have a chance to attend any demos or workshops by FifthAngel, definitely do. |
