Definition of Asexuality:
Researchers generally define asexuality as the lack of sexual attraction or the lack of sexual interest, but their definitions vary; they may use the term "to refer to individuals with low or absent sexual desire or attractions, low or absent sexual behaviors, exclusively romantic non-sexual partnerships, or a combination of both absent sexual desires and behaviors."

I am an http://www.16personalities.com/infj-personality, astrologer, Level II Reiki, doodler of pictures, writer of words, friend of freaks, and hugger of trees & furry, non-rabid critters.
I'm a sucker for an underdog. And a cleft chin.
I woman wrong most of the time. I ditched 'The Initiation Into The FemaleHiveMind', got drunk on Cuervo, and watched Kingpin instead. That was after I replaced the wax ring on the toilet, and Bedazzled my welding gloves. It was a busy day. My "womaning properly" is sorely lacking as a result.
I feminist wrong most of the time. I don't hate men, or wear Birkenstocks, or want to kill all baby boys at conception, or think -all- men are -all- anything. I think there really is a Patriarchy, Virginia, and I think it hurts both men and women. Apparently, my non-radical views are pretty goddamned radical. Who knew wanting all humans to have the same rights under the law was eroding the very fabric of TEH NATCHERILL ORDUR?
I white privilege wrong a lot of the time, too. Not only do I admit America has a racist system, I work to educate people to that fact, and I work with other people who are trying to find solutions.
I can't even Hippie chick correctly. I smoke the ganja, recycle, compost, dream of living in a Yurt village filled with a family created from friends, have a distinct style of dress (I like to call it eccentric, my son likes to call it What Not To Wear worthy. Pfft.), but still shave my legs & armpits, smoke like a broken stove, and eat copious amounts of meat. Preferably, meat that mooed at one time.
Bacon is its own food group. It is also the most important food group. THESE POINTS ARE NOT UP FOR DEBATE.
I cannot conventional Christian.

All.
Why do they call hipsters hipsters? THEY AREN'T EVEN REMOTELY HIP.
Also? Radishes are the most undervalued vegetable in a salad.

But just as he was going to fire at him, it occurred to him that the wolf might have devoured the grandmother, and that she might still be saved, so he did not fire, but took a pair of scissors, and began to cut open the stomach of the sleeping wolf.
When he had made two snips, he saw the little red riding hood shining, and then he made two snips more, and the little girl sprang out, crying: 'Ah, how frightened I have been! How dark it was inside the wolf.'

Ah, yes. Loving my new apartment.

Cheezus H. Kryst on a glittery fucking graham cracker.


If you send me an email telling me you love me and we've never spoken? I'm going to think you're fucking CREEPY and on some scandalous shit. And don't tell me that it's in my head, it's on YOU for being too goddamned forward when you're weren't fucking invited. BOUNDARIES PEOPLE, GET SOME.

Yeah, no. If you approach a woman with that "ME DOM, YOU SUB, LET'S DO THE DAMN THANG!" attitude before she even knows if you're compatible or trustworthy? You're doing it RONG and are kinda dumb.

Well, not kinda dumb, REALLY dumb.

Just sayin'.

So, yeah. I don't get all these straight men who have 'vibrators' listed in their 'loves' category. Um, do y'all think it's going to give you a +1 with the ladies or something?

I miss my Daddy, something fierce.

I've been taking care of a friends mother while her husband and regular caregiver recovers from major surgery. She has MS and is wheelchair bound.

This is the hardest job I have ever done and I have a whole new respect for 24/7 caregivers.

I was fairly prepared for the physical aspects of this job. The butt wiping. The catheterizing. The heavy lifting of transferring a person from bed to wheelchair, and from wheelchair to toilet. It's a lot of work and quite taxing on the body. There's not much sleep going on, either.

What I was not prepared for was the emotional aspects of all of this. It reared its ugly head at me today and I went into complete meltdown. Panic attack

I wasn't prepared for becoming emotionally attached. I wasn't prepared for 'feeling' her pain. I wasn't prepared for wincing at every muscle spasm and waking at every cry in the night. I wasn't prepared for feeling so helpless. I wasn't prepared for feeling so frustrated. I wasn't prepared for feeling like no matter how much I've done, it just isn't enough. I wasn't prepared for feeling every mistake magnified 1000x's. I wasn't prepared for my inner empath's reactions and I certainly was not prepared for facing my own mortality and the implications of having a disease that could, potentially, put me in the same predicament as the person I am caring for. I wasn't prepared for dealing with the emotions of the one requiring care, the loss of control of thier body and the subsequent over-compensating that results in micro-management of all the aspects of their life they still do have control over.

I just, flat out, was. not. prepared.

I guess it's time to repo my Girl Scout card.

The level of selflessness needed to be dedicated to caring for someone chronically ill is astounding. The amount of sacrifice needed to do the job right is astronomical. I've had more than a few moments where I've felt like I've bitten off more than I can chew.

I'm really good at service. I'm really good at taking care of everyone else, but not so good at taking care of me. I throw everything of myself into caring for others, and as a result I end up feeling ...completely spent.

In many ways, this is much like slavery. Dedicating oneself to the needs of another. Working tirelessly in an attempt to make another more comfortable and sated. Sacrificing ones own life for the life of another.

I'm not so sure I'm cut out for it anymore.

So, I've been toying with my inner sadist.

 

I seem to get really giggly, giddy and full of squee when I cause the boys pain.

I need my Daddy.

"To have someone give you control of their bodies and minds, to be entrusted with the responsibility to take care of them, to have someone willing to suffer for you, to forsake pride and dignity to please you... what other gift in this world can possibility equate to that?

They say in all of us there's still that wide eyed child,
that no girl is ever older than twenty one.
Found my way marked the Northern star
and decided to lose myself again

Because I'm forty one but I'm still fourteen
lost among the ages in my soul
my body says I'm seventy
but my heart still pounds young

And whenever I see you again, I'm sixteen
and a lollipop makes me five
a dog running at my heels and I'm eight
and ballet shoes make me twelve.

And this ache in my body says I'm nineteen
ripe for lovin' matin' and bearing young
ready to breed even though that well is dried up
and child rearing is all done.

They say in all of us there's still that wide eyed child,
that no girl is ever older than twenty one.
I could die tomorrow and be happy that I spent this time by your side
die at 100 and feel like I still had things to be done.

.... Hey, I'm your life
I'm the one who takes you there
Hey, I'm your life
I'm the one who cares
They, they betray
I'm your only true friend now
They, they'll betray
I'm forever there
I'm your dream, make you real
I'm your eyes when you must steal
I'm your pain when you can't feel, sad but true
I'm your dream, mind astray
I'm your eyes while you're away
I'm your pain while you repay
You know it's sad but true, sad but true

You can choose to lead me, but goddammit, you better keep a death grip on the leash.

You can choose to follow me, but if you do, get behind me and don't bitch about where I take you.

You can choose to be my equal, but we'll walk side by side and share in everything together.

Once you've made a choice, stay in your fucking lane, changes are prohibited.

And if you can't choose where you want to be, get the fuck out of my way.

I've got shit to do.

Sometimes, cruel IS kind.

Another awesome compliment:

 

I want to be you when I grow up, but without the dismemberment.

 

<3 My

One of the best compliments I've ever received:

I don't just luff yew...I wanna lick your brain, and have raunchy sex with your words. Alphabet/brain porn. I wanna do dirty, nasty things all over your perspectives and insights.

Then, I want to share a cigarette with you. :o)

Yeah, this.

This is a snippet from a recent thread I came across called 'Warrior Submissive':


"Years of heartbreak tend to make you not trust anyone. When that happens, no matter how submissive you are, there is a part that refuses to give over full control ever again. So you make the Dominant "prove" they are worthy of you... over and over and over... no matter how long you are together."

 



The Knight Submissive, or Why The Warrior Submissive Falls Short


So, this is writing has been spawned from this bit of tomfuckery: https://.com/users/1343775/posts/1059303

First, let me start off by saying I do not believe that a dominant should have to continually prove his worthiness for submission and obedience.

In my opinion, once an s-type of this flavor has decided they have found their King, they choose whether or not to swear loyalty and fealty.

A king should not have to constantly prove himself worthy of the loyalty and fealty of his knights. He has proven himself worthy to them when THEY chose to bend knee. The only way a knight might need to unbend the knee is because the king shows himself to be an incompetent ruler by word and deed.

A knight should not expect the king to continually prove he's a king, just maintain what was already shown from the start that made the knight wish to bend knee to begin with.

On the flip side of this is the king looking at the knight, assessing their character and level of commitment and deciding whether or not he feels safe allowing them into HIS inner sanctum.

When the chips are down, the king turns to his knights to protect his kingdom. Along side each other, they fight the good fight.

If there's constant questioning of his Kingly-ness happening after fealty is sworn, the king cannot trust that when the chips are down and it's balls to the wall that his knights will put everything they have into his purpose and his plan.

And this is where I see the failure of the Warrior Submissive.

The Warrior Submissive cannot be trusted because the Warrior Submissive holds back trust. They're renegades with an agenda and not team players.

They cannot get on the same page and fight ANYTHING if they're stuck fighting that which they profess to desire being loyal to.

If you're expecting someone to constantly prove, over and over again that they are worthy and they STILL cannot elicit the trust needed to go into battle with you--as a team--then the problem does not lie with the king, it lies with the Warrior.

So, before you sign on for being a Warrior Submissive, consider trying on the armor of a Knight Submissive. Knights are brave, strong, devoted, fierce and focused, otherwise they'd not have what it takes to BE a knight.

Knights do not follow blindly. They are schooled in the ways of battle. Their prime responsibility is to keep the king and the kingdom safe from marauders. Knights don't keep their mouths shut when they see a better approach to a battle, to do so would be to risk the king and his kingdom. There might be sparring between king and knight in preparation for battle, but there should never be a battle between king and knight.

Questioning and suggesting better approaches is a far cry from mistrust. Do not confuse the two.

Go to your king a well-oiled, fully-functioning soldier, ready to do battle in his honor because he earned that right when you chose to bend knee to him. A king doesn't need a paranoid Warrior on the battlefield with him. One that questions why they're there swinging their sword in the midst of battle, instead of focusing on the tasks at hand. Kings need knights.

If you're this Warrior submissive and you need constant verification that the king really is king, you might just lop his head off one night when he enters the knight's chamber because you don't feel safe inside his castle. And really, wouldn't that be a gawddamned shame? No king, no kingdom, just ruins.

And if you don't feel safe inside his castle, find one you DO feel safe in.

You can't be half in and half out. Shit goes bad when you half-ass. Warriors have no business in service to a king. That's the knight's place.

He's the King. Trust his leadership or don't join the team.

And that's all I have to say about that.


And because @-Bishop- fucking rocks:

The Warrior

The Warrior, like the Knight, is a fighter. Fighting flows from his passionate nature, fighting is what fulfills him. He may fight for a cause at times, but in the end, his only true cause is himself. Unlike the Knight, the Warrior is also proud. Like a wild beast, he is ferocious and sometimes fiercely loyal, but because of his pride he will never be truly tamed. Eventually, the Warrior will fight against any authority or restriction because he embraces fighting as his nature. At times he even fights himself.

The Knight

The Knight is also a fighter. Unlike the Warrior, the Knight has overcome his passionate nature in order to serve a cause higher than himself; he has changed fighting into a means rather than an end. The Knight's sole purpose and fulfillment is to serve. He embraces rules and stricture because he knows they help him achieve his purpose. The Knight is at peace with himself because his role is absolute and his enemies are always external.

My question to the reader is, which one of these roles involves power exchange? Which one fits the role of "fierce/strong" submissive best?


You know, if you're going to write a woman with seemingly sincere intentions of wanting to start a relationship, it might be pertinent and honorable to tell them you already have a babygirl.

And never assume she's too stupid or too charmed by your attention to run your name through the search feature on other sites.

Just sayin'.

I'm a very detail oriented person who absolutely adores a good head game.

They're the one thing that trips my trigger hardest and I happen to be really fucking good at them. It's a rare occurrence that I don't get exactly what I want, with folks wearing a smile while giving it to me.

In fleshworld, I'm a big ol' bitch about my shit. Ain't no shame in my game. Ain't no hair on my tongue.

I wasn't always a good person, but experience has changed me. I perfected manipulation back in tha' day and it's the one thing I can't seem to change. Fuckmerunnin' it makes me hot. Having someone who beats me at my own game makes me putty. Silly Putty™.

It isn't ever malicious anymore, but it is self-serving. I try my damnedest not to leave a path of destruction. I don't lie. I don't cheat. I don't steal. It took me a long time to realize that honesty, loyalty, charm and a little TLC can get me whatever I want.

I let people know exactly what they're getting into with me.

I'm fairly non-judgmental and by that I mean, if I care about you, I can accept damn near any flaw.

There's a hitch, though.

I got rules. Yeah, I know, friendships shouldn't have rules. Well, fuck that, I got me some rules anyway and I don't expect anything I'm not willing to reciprocate when you need me to.

I've spent too much of my life with no-good motherfuckers that I allowed into my life.

Now, I have a big ass sign that I tote, loud and proud, "No-good motherfuckers, exit, stage left."

Thing is, being good doesn't come naturally to me. I have to actively work at it. I mean, let's keep it real. I'm the bitch that fucked the bitch that my man was fucking just to teach him a lesson.

Which brings me back to manipulation. Head games.

'm going to study you. I'm going to figure out what makes you tick and I'm going to give you what you need from me. I'm going to figure out what gives you flight and what makes you fall flat. Everything is a tool. You can't tell someone, "Hey, you're not being the best YOU (that you are with me) you can be," and hope they get it, unless you know exactly how to make it hit home. Maximum impact.

I'm smart enough to have realized that no one person can give you everything you need. You can't give me everything I need and I can't give you everything you need. I used to be one of those people that being around was like getting sucked into a vortex. Thank gawd I came to understand diversification.

I'll figure out what you're bringing to the table, what needs you'll fill. I'll figure out what you need, from me and I'll carve out my own little niche in your life and I'll commit to it.

I have far too much pride to ever let someone walk away from me thinking, "Man, I regret ever meeting her." A victory doesn't count if I can't walk away, head held high.

Unless, of course, you -like- hit someone I love and you're all out of pocket about it. Then, it's headbuttin' time. Just sayin'.

Yeah, I'm a prideful bitch.

It's because being a selfish cunt is so much easier. Not giving a fuck is so much easier. I know, from experience, and it's habit to reach for my most comfortable pair of shoes.

I have to work at doing the right thing. When I feel hurt or betrayed, my first instinct is to strike back viciously. I have to stop and think because doing the right thing might not feel good right now, but it sure is sweet on the lips later.

And if I can work at it, so can you.

You can be a grimy motherfucker to everyone else you know, but you won't be a grimy motherfucker to me.

My environment is tightly controlled. Tighter than frog pussy.

It runs smoothly and basically drama-free.

Everyone has their niche in my mix.

I don't expect too much, but what I do expect, I better fucking get. Not because I'm entitled to it for breathing, but because I know I'm that bitch that has your back.

Romantically, though, it becomes a big fucking problem, this fucking pride.

I'm good at being a good human being and I'm cocky enough to own that shit.

Yeah, this pride, pride I work at maintaining because fuck if I'm not my own worst judge, jury and executioner and just... fuck that. I choose to stay out of court. I avoid doing shit I'll feel guilty about like the black plague and it tends to give me a pretty fucking swollen head.

The people in my life are my orchestra, they each love their instrument and are more than happy to make music with me.

Til they're not.

And my pride rears its ugly head.

All that goodness I've consciously and methodically put out now becomes a possible weapon. One I try really hard not to use. Sometimes, unsuccessfully.

My whole M/s journey has been about finding the man who was interested enough, strong enough and smart enough to know exactly what code I want to live by and expect nothing less from me. Ever.

A man whose code mirrors mine enough that there is no hiding from him.

If he points out a flaw, it really is a flaw and it needs to be fixed.

I can't very well stay in alignment with him, if I'm not in alignment with me.

A man who won't let me slide on my self-proclaimed code, when it's easier to do just that, is a man that can run this fucking show. I mean, fuck, I'm not perfect, no matter how hard I try or how much I attempt to delude myself into thinking I am.

I get pretty puffed up once in a while and need knocking off my pedestal. Once the tears of indignation have stopped flowing and I've dutifully eaten humble pie, I'm actually grateful. Grateful I wasn't allowed to be the person I work so damn hard NOT to be.

And making me feel gratitude takes effort, a steady diet of effort, because I'm on my game. I know where my queen is and I have my king protected.

Give me what I need and everything I want? I'm running roughshod.

My orchestra.

Give me what I need and know when NOT to give me what I want? (yeah, timing IS everything) You're the guy holding the stick with a carrot tied to the end.

Your orchestra.

Head games.

And I'm dangerously charming.

See through them and you own my ass. Check me when I'm out of line and make me see it, you own my heart.

Yeah, I love me some fucking head games.

Peek-a-boo, I see you.

Come by and read my blog @ thevelveteenhoodrat.blogspot.com

Please, keep your wank fodder to yourself. If you want to approach a woman, have some class. A wall-o-text of what you want to do to and/or with a woman you have no knowledge of is rape by font. It isn't cute. It isn't a turn on and it only makes you look like the shallow cocktard you are.

Mr. W., Rip (because in his younger years, had no qualms about *ripping* someone with a knife), was my friend.

We met four years ago when i moved into the apartment upstairs from him.

He was crotchety, jaded, grumpy, always right, said things only old people get away with, drove me crazy, and could have worried Jesus off the cross.

We shared food, we shared laughs, he tried to give me wisdom.

I adored him and, apparently, the feeling was mutual. The last conversation he had was with his daughter and the subject was me. He told her he trusted me with his life.

I ran his errands, paid his bills, did his shopping, washed his clothes, listened to all his stories, watched ball games with him and it was me that opened his door yesterday evening fully expecting to fix his dinner like I'd done so many times before and found him dead. All of the things his family couldn't be bothered to drive two hours to do.

I called 911, then his daughter who he only began talking to again 10 years ago, who hadn't seen his since childhood and broke the news. This was followed by being commanded by the CPD to remain in the apartment until the medical examiner arrived. If you've never been forced to sit in an apartment for 3 1/2 hours with a dead body, I don't recommend it.

It was me who collected all his money and gave every penny to his daughter. It was me who told them where all his valuables were hidden.

I ended up being the one to deal with the landlord. I ended up being the one to find a way to fund a funeral.

But tonight's glowing display of humanity made me come up to my own apartment and puke my guts out.

Here are these people who, for all intents and purposes, were compete strangers to him-they didn't know which was his favorite hat, or his favorite fishing pole, which was the family bible, where his minister's license was-and i watched as his grandson who he'd never even laid eyes on packed his pockets full of Rip's memorabilia. I watched him toss the contents of this beautiful man's life into a haphazard, disrespectful, "keep" pile.

I stood there calm as could be, but inside i was hit by a tidal wave of shame. If Rip had seen this, he would have been horrified. He would have cracked him in his nappy ass head with his walking stick.

It was upsetting to say the least, but they saved the best for last.

As he was going through Rip's treasured knife collection tossing in the occasional, "Oh, I'm keeping this right here!", and the condescending comments to me about how he knew SO much about his granddad...he stops dead in his tracks and asks me...."Did he have any handguns?"

The abject misery that appeared on his face when i answered "no" was...sickening.

While I stood there and calmly attempted to explain the particulars of getting the funds for his funeral, they couldn't be bothered to *really* listen. They were far too busy acting like vultures picking a carcass clean.

When they began discussing taking home the cleaning supplies, i knew i'd not have anything of Rip to remember him by because these folks weren't going to offer me a gawddamn thing.

But, yanno, I really thought I'd get a "thank you".

death brings out the worst in people.

oh, and fuck you Mother Nature, you could have held my period off for a few more days instead of gushing to attention in the middle of this feeding frenzy.

i want to puke, again.

Dear Mr. Spam-I-Am,
I'd rather eat green eggs and ham.

I do not want to lick your poo.
I do not want to be your loo.

I do not want to do the do.
I do not want to moo for you.

I will not drink your rancid brew.
I won't dress up like Gary Gnu.

I will not fuck your workplace crew.
I suspect you'll tell me I'm not true.

I do not want to marry you.
Pretend I am a vapid shrew.

I really hate to break the news,
You're a spineless, grammarless whackadoo.

If this is how you try to woo,
You really need to get a clue.

If you show me your crooked cock,
I might just clock you with a lock.

If you feel the need to fap amok, 
I highly suggest Vaseline and a sock.

I know you think you really rock,
But your ignorance I truly mock.

I won't respond to, "hey bitch, kneel!"
I'd rather stab you with my high heel.

I will not do ass-to-mouth.
You fucked-up, senseless, nasty lout.

I will not play with glory holes.
No matter our prospective roles.

You cannot have my Yahoo, AIM or Skype.
For the love of Gawd, put down the crack pipe.

Dreedle, drizzle, drazzle, drone.
Time for you to toddle home.

This whole ideal that a slave gets and maintains her sense of worth from her Master, *solely* from her Master, is romantic tomfoolery. A slave needs to understand her inherent worth.

I want to put this into terms of owning a home.

Whether that home is in a ritzytizzy neighborhood, or in the ghetto, it STILL HAS VALUE and can have it's value increased. The house isn't arrogant for having value, and neither am I.

The property owner understands that shit is going to break. Other shit is going to need upgrading. Not to mention general maintenance all around. Trash, clean-up, utilities.

For the most part, the owner gets to choose when he does certain things. When to install that new floor. When to change the windows. When it gets new paint. When to rake the leaves. When to send the check for the water bill.

It isn't a matter of *IF* it gets these things, but *WHEN*. The house isn't arrogant for needing these things, and neither am I.

There are things my house needs, and take me as is and DO what needs doing when the fuck you get ready to, but damn it, DO it.

It's no more arrogant for me to expect that I get some niceties, seeing as those same niceties improve the value of HIS property. A rose bush here, an apple tree there. It's as it should be. That is why people invest in property, isn't it?

Then there are those unexpected emergencies.

Those things that need to be tended to and repaired, right. fucking. now.

Broken pipes. Blown furnace. Backed up sewer. Flooding.

All things the owner gets blindsided with. Things he has NO CONTROL OVER. If he's a good owner, he figures out the problem based on the symptoms, noises and aromas, and fixes it, the right way. Once he does, he can be certain he won't have to hear from that part for another 30yrs. The house isn't arrogant for blowing a valve or getting a clogged drain, and neither am I.

Do you curse the house for having a need that needs to be tended to right now? Fixed, *right now*? You do if you're a slumlord. If you're an owner, you do what needs to be done, take it in stride and know you're keeping something of value, valuable.

Just because I am human does not negate the fact that I am like any other property. Shit. fucking. happens. Fix it, or don't call yourself anything but what you are, a slumlord undeserving of owning a home, simply, because you have no concept of the differences between house and home, and the differences of what each has the potential to provide.

So, if being a house that wants a homeowner and not a slumlord makes me spoiled, if expecting from my owner anything less than what any smart property owner knows, then fuck it, I am the most spoiled bitch on the face of the earth.

If I do not know that all of the twisted, cruel, manipulative, gentle, tongue-biting, bending to the will of another is worth something, then I have no business trying to find, or be with, a man who will take what I have and do what is best with it. Period.

If he is a man that does not understand what he has been blessed with by God/Allah/Universe/Karma..whatever, then he isn't a man worth serving. Who I have the potential to be is your gift from life. What I give you isn't a gift, the endless potential you have been given by fate to twist to your will, is.

In contrast, to have a man that knows what he has, and appreciates it, is a man WORTHY of calling himself Master. He is a man who knows what owning property entails. I don't want a slumlord, and if I weren't absolutely positive of my worth, I may end up property of one.

I don't expect anything more than to be recognized as a miracle in your life, the same way I recognize you're a miracle in mine. We are gifts to each other, what we are together is our lessons, and our potential gift to the world. My gratitude isn't to you, it is to that which gave me to you, that which crossed our paths. I give to you in recognition of what I have been given by something greater than you, to serve and honor that gift, every day, in every way, is my purpose and...

it. is. valuable.
Just as valuable as you are.

It may be such that a slave's *increased* worth is determined by her Master, but a Master's *increased* worth is determined by his slave. The more she is worth, the more HE is worth.

He gets what he pays for, he gets out of it what he puts into it.

Some men shop Wal-mart, some men want Barney's of New York.

Meaning, I want a man who is willing to put in the work and appreciation and devotion it takes to make me property worthy of being in a Barney's store, and not as a blue light special from K-Mart.

If I don't know I am better than the clearance rack, I'm never gonna make the runway.

Excerpt from "My Curse~The Afghan Whigs"

 

Hurt me baby
I flinch so when you do
Your kisses scourge me
Hyssop in your perfume
Oh I do not fear you
And slave I only use as a word to describe
The way I feel when I'm with you

Am I the only one that has realized that there will be four dates this year consisting of all #1's?

 

1/1/11

weird.

I used to think I did the honorable thing because I was honorable.

 

Honorable with dishonorable intent is the charge, guilty is the verdict.

 

Truth is, the high road is paved with gold and it winds its way through the land of milk and honey. I do the honorable thing because it gets me what I want. I manipulate it until it serves me. Be it for money, sex, power, adoration, loyalty, smug satisfaction, divine retribution, laughable irony or poetic justice.

 

And when I've sated myself of the desire du jour, I slip away, fingers still greasy, respect intact.

 

It's completely self-serving.

 

Not to mention, guilt, remorse and bittersweet memories of goodness lost, left behind to live rent-free in another persons head are mighty sticks to walk softly with.

 

The rush of being able to righteously beat someone with them, if only in my mind, to get drunk on their blood and feast on their flesh, is indescribably sublime.

 

So, what do you do with an honorably dishonorable girl who longs to be feasted upon, with the same fervor in which she feasts? One who aches to intoxicate another with her blood, one who savors and appreciates its heady effects as deeply as she does? A predator that needs to be prey, for once in her life?

I've always felt like the 'odd man out'. Society, psychologists, advocates, they all say I should loathe what happened to me as a child. They all say I should be psychologically destroyed, emotionally vacant and I'm not. They all say I should hate what happened, hate my "abuser", that the normal response to my experience should be self-loathing, guilt, shame, disgrace and disgust and I feel none of it. Not one iota. I do, however, feel warm and fuzzy remembering the secret touches in the places everyone said no one was supposed to touch. The cuddling, the cooing, the general sense of safety and love, the laughter, and the excitement.

My 'abuser' didn't feel like an abuser, he felt like a lover, a god, a safe haven where pleasure reigned supreme. I ached for what he did to my body from the very first timid touches. I sought him out to experience more. I donned a sweet, giving, doting persona in hopes he'd use me again...and again...and again.

I was never left feeling hollow. My eyes never had that 'dead' look in them. I still played with Barbie dolls, swung on the swing set, rode my bike, tromped through mud puddles and ran through the grass footloose and fancy free. My childhood wasn't stolen. My innocence wasn't destroyed. The world remained a beautiful place.

I was never given the 'bad touch' talk as a child. I never knew what happened to me was considered wrong until many years later when it became fodder for television talk shows. There were no preconceived notions of right and wrong, it just was.

It still feels right, it still feels like what I was created for.

How could what made me feel so good be termed abuse? How could what made me feel so wanted and adored make me feel guilty or shame-filled? How could I hate the boy-man that gave me so much? How can I deny the tingling I remember feeling at his touch, his kiss, his invasion of my sacred places?

I can't and I won't...and I wonder if I am alone or if there others like me...
Too many Dominants think they should be treated as gods without actually BEING gods to their subs/slaves.

They want instaslaves, add water and shake.

They miss the point of actually having to do the work involved to enslave the girl and keep her enslaved. They expect her to enslave herself.

It's lazy and undeserving of service.
You know, i spent a good deal of my life wishing for a white knight. Someone who could run the show because i wasn't convinced i could.

Then, through life's little ass-kickings, i figured out i could run my show...and a whole lot better than the folks i had entrusted this job to previous to my realization.

I'm at a point now where i trust me to run my show and i am less than willing to allow anyone to prove to me they can do a better job than i can.

Finding out you are the little engine that could is a double edged sword.

*raises my glass*

Here's to staying single, celibate and unencumbered.

Fuck you, Cricket Wireless upper echelon. You should be tarred, feathered, drawn, quartered and anally raped with Guinness World Record-sized zucchini until you willingly, and gratefully, with much weeping and begging involved, change your name to Crookit.

It definitely suits you better.

Your salesman sold me a pipe dream, and the smoke was blown straight up my hoohaa, and not in the hawt way.

I needed internet access and you saw my bandwidth-ignorant ass coming.

I allowed your salesman to convince me that by signing up for your largest "unlimited" access package available, i could "download 24hrs a day and never run out."

Yeah. Right. Crookit bastards.

When i called customer service to find out why it was taking 30min to load my much beloved FarmVille, I was informed that i had run out of bandwidth, by a Dunkin' Donut-lilted, accent-laden, barely understandable agent, professing to be named Brad.

By this time, i am totally sensing a theme of dishonesty.

Apparently, the largest "unlimited" package consists of 7.5meg of bandwidth, which only translates to "weyn hooondred and twwwaynty wayb-brrrrowsing hourrrrs, maay'ohm.", says the oh-so-smug Brad, as he litters the conversation, more than liberally, with the condescending "i oonderstand yooour froostration, maay'ohm."

NO.THE.FUCK.YOU.DON'T.STOP.SAYING.THAT.IT.MAKES.ME.WANT.TO.POP.YOUR.HEAD.LIKE.A.ZIT.

**me**: "i purchased an unlimited package, Brad. How have i surpassed my limit on an unlimited package? Maybe we should drag out the trusty Webster's and clearly define 'unlimited'."

**Brad**: "eet ees unleemeeted, maay'ohm. you cahn still connect to deee eentorrrnet, yooour speed is just moouch slowvwer."

**me**: "um, Brad, i can't load a page, i can't use MSN or Skype. what good is it to have the ability to connect to the internet if i CAN'T FRIGGIN LOAD A PAGE?"

**Brad**: "I oondooerstand yoour froostration, maay'ohm."

**me**: "No, Brad, you don't. If you did, you'd attempt to fix this mess or, at the very least, send me to someone who WILL."

This exchange ended with him putting me on hold for 15min just so he could give me a corporate headquarters phone number that NO ONE EVER FUCKING ANSWERS.

As if this weren't enough, you're so testicle-less in your business practices, it seems only the Pentagon and CIA have access to your WEAL and TWUE top-secret, corporate headquarters, red, blinking, batphone number.

Oh, btw, as soon as the rebate check comes for this P.O.S. modem, i'm taking the loot and going with Comcast. They may be crooked fuckers with sketchy service, but at least they TRY to make their customers happy when they bitch loud and long enough.

For the first time, in a long time, everything seems to be going my way. Changes I've been fighting long and hard for, the means with which to make those changes.

What am I going to do with a whole new life?

soooo, I'm loving me some Facebook....found my first ever boyfriend...pwahahaha

fucking people.

you'd think with tagging myself as a slave, and being a total bitch in my profile would keep the morons at bay, but, nooooooooooo.

and now, because i stated i was uninterested in tying this dumbass switch male from florida to a bed and using his genitals as an ashtray, he has decided to send me numerous emails calling me vulgar names on more than one screen name.

my advice to him? get a fucking blow up doll, with his attitude he'll die with his tallywhacker in his own mouth.

 

 

It's getting down to the wire. Moving day. UGH. I am so stressed out.

So many ask me how i can possibly identify as a slave when my profile and obvious personality 'quirks' are so stereotypically untypical.

Someone made a post and i'd like to quasi quote her. It was brilliant. She explained it far better than i ever could, with far less pomp and circumstance. 

"Then there are some who want a partner for life, a worthy adversary for their S&M interests and leanings, someone who is bound to them similar to a knight and their king. Someone who will follow them to hell and back, but can carry their own baggage.
For them its not about obedience & service, its about fealty and loyalty."



ok, as messed up as this may seem to some, i am absolutely fascinated with 'chicks with dicks'.

beautiful faces, beautiful tits, nice body, big hairy cock.

...and all i can do is stare with morbid fascination and curiosity.

what's up with that?

Clue-By-Four DuJour:

If your first reaction to an s-type disagreeing with you is to stomp, pout, whine, and lash out at the s-type for daring to do so, you might want to consider turning in your Dom union card.

So, I've been doing some thinking about spirituality. Well, some is a wee bit of an understatement. It's more like a scorching, unquenchable desire to KNOW my purpose.

I do not and will not lay claim to any organized religious doctrine. I do, however, have a very strong sense of spirituality, of what is intrinsically right and wrong. I do my best to overcome the negative parts of me, to transcend and evolve, to actively and consciously make a concerted effort to do the right thing, even when the banal tempts and taunts me otherwise, and to remain always 'aware' and 'tuned-in'.
It is a commitment I have made to The Universe and all that is in It, and of It.
I am also a fallible human and, many times, fail miserably.
There are also those times when I can feel Him radiating from my core like a warm, summer sun...
and in those moments, I know I have done what I was meant to do.
I have served my purpose.
His purpose.

In my numerous discussions with my daughter and her friends, I have discovered that if I were to ever wish to revert to Islam, I would most identify with the Sufi and their teachings.

Here are some of my beliefs:

i believe we are the energy we radiate...what we attract depends solely on what we emit..
i believe vengeance is unnecessary, what we do unto others will be done unto us...times three. every act has a consequence.
i believe my only entitlement is the pursuit of happiness...everything else i receive from life, i should be ready and able to deserve, because i've earned it, not because i think it is owed to me, if only because i am alive...
i believe in synchronicity, not coincidence...Wisdom and Direction whisper to us, we just have to be alert and quiet enough to hear it...
i believe everyone deserves a chance...some deserve 12 chances...some deserve 12 chances cubed...regret can be a bitter pill. if i can forgive them, maybe they can forgive me...
i believe in the power of 'community'.
i believe if i need a miracle, i need to be a miracle for someone else...miracles don't always come with the magnitude of moses parting the red sea...sometimes a miracle is a hand to hold and a kind word, exactly when you need them most...sometimes it's a new pair of shoes, sometimes it's a few hot meals and a safe place to lay your head...if i have it to give, i will and should...i may need a miracle one day, too.
i believe God IS the collective conscious...the energy of every living thing connected to the energy of every other living thing...our actions rippling out...like tiny waves of water after tossing in a stone...affecting everything in it's outward-growing path...

I didn't come to the above conclusions based on religious indoctrination, I came by them through experience.
Through insanity. (ie: The act of doing the same obtuse acts, over and over, exactly the same, and expecting different results.)
Through being open to awareness and making an effort to remain aware at all times.
I also learned much through the practice of Reiki. The five basic tenets of which are:
1) The secret art of inviting happiness. (be what you desire)
2) The miraculous medicine (Ki or Chi; GodForce) for all diseases.
3) At least for today:
*Do not be angry.
*Do not worry.
*Be grateful.
*Work with diligence.
*Be kind to people.
4) Every morning and evening, join your hands in meditation and pray with your heart.
5) State in your mind and chant with your mouth, for improvement of mind and body.

I truly believe there are those that absolutely "feel" God, Allah, Universe, Energy, Higher Power.
Those that have become aware.
Those that have relinquished the ego of self and broken it's inherent, misery-creating bondage.
Then, there are those that use the idealism of those same omniscient, omnipresent and awe-inducing concepts (for lack of a better term) for their own personal agendas.
Power. Greed. Self-worth. Sense of entitlement. The assuaging of guilt. Narcissism. Vengeance.
The list goes on and on and on....

My journey and lessons, thus far, can be wrapped up nicely in a mere few sentences. I had to learn to recognize God in others, even those deemed void of God. Only in doing so was I able to see God in myself. To realize that as long as He is in me, I have worth that no one can take from me. I have purpose, even if it appears to others that i am stagnant. That I must require from all (as well as self), the respect and honor that God deserves, as He exists in me, and is represented through my existence and impact in this life. That good and evil, yin and yang, dark and light, right and wrong, war and peace, viciousness and tenderness, ugly and beautiful, these must all simultaneously exist, because without the balance of extremes, nothing would exist at all. There is no 'great mystery' and in seeking the answer to the 'great mystery', we've missed the entire point:
God is Love, and we were all created to love...AND to allow ourselves to be loved. Simple, logical, cyclical, infinite, eternal and no 'great mystery' at all.

I've encountered countless people in my travels who have developed, on their own, the same flavor of beliefs as myself. I tend to attract "mystical" and "spiritual" types; those that operate within organized religions, and those that do not.
What resonates among every one of them?
The awareness, embracing and honoring of, along with the obedience to:
The Voice In The Back Of Your Head That Screams What's Right And Wrong And Never Shuts Up When You Step Off Your True Path Or Rightly Deserve To Feel Guilt and Shame And Ache With The NEED For Atonement Of Transgressions And Forgiveness Of Those Transgressions.

So, my question(s) is this:

For those that have come to awareness, connectedness...when it all comes down to it, do we not all intrinsically know what we know what we know?
Aside from obvious ritualistic differences and set 'rules and regulations'..are we not all feeling the same jaw-dropping, life-changing, awe-inspiring, ego-humbling FORCE?
Do we not share the same awakening to the 'voice in the back of your head' that screams right and wrong? The One that whispers warnings and guides us? The One that punishes and rewards us, if only within the confines of our conscience?
Because, really, that voice in our head is the one that punishes us worst of all. It's also that voice that tells us when we should be happy with who and what we have become. It tells us when it's o.k. to feel peaceful and confident in our journey.
Could it be that that is the voice of God?

My greatest prayer for humanity is that we all, whatever religion, whatever race, whatever place amongst the caste system, begin to recognize this in one another and stop using God as a reason to separate and conquer, and begin using God as a reason to come together and transcend. That, instead of using our rituals and observances and standards as a means to disrespect the Godforce by tearing each other down, we learn to respect that we all worship and defer in our own fashion and to keep in awareness that, even though we have different approaches, the adoration and awe we experience are for the same instinctual, 'deeply embedded in our DNA', Awareness and Knowing of Him. That, eventually, we will learn to lift each other up, so that each of us can exalt Him in our individual purpose, in accordance with His plan.

After all, we are all of Him, because of Him and for use in His grand plan.

Love.
Be Loved.

Just my $.02.

Namaste.

Now, i don't usually bother with those nifty little coolers at the checkout aisle, but my grandegg wanted a water so.....

I reach in the cooler to grab said bottle of water and the damn thing costs more than the friggin soda!!!

If that wasn't bad enough, they slapped a "water tax" on the damn thing too.

That kid gets no more bottled water...He gets 'Michigan on the rocks' or he goes thirsty.
So, am i the only one that finds it unsettling when the little "Admirers" thingy lights up, you go and look, and no new name is there?

Seems like someone without a profile, or a hidden profile, wants to watch.

Stealth stalking. Fucking creepy.
Asshattery abounds here. So many men bitch and whine like little girls how they never receive kind emails, or that their kind emails are not responded to.

I sent two very kind emails out tonight, they were not sexual, they were not mean-spirited, they didn't make suggestion of anything more than a general comment and asking a question or two, both were read and promptly ignored.

Men like this need to have the corncob removed from their ass. At the very least, they need to rein in their megalomaniac sized egos.

Guys, if you expect to be heard and responded to, follow the Golden Rule...

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Fucking tools, and you wonder why the women here can be so horribly uncunted.

That is all.
"Anyone can become angry?that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way?this is not easy."
~Artistotle, The Nicomachean Ethics
"You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She's not perfect - you aren't either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don't hurt her, don't change her, don't analyze and don't expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she's not there."? ~Bob Marley~
"Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you?ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can?t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it?s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn?t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day?s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there?s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you?re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there?s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that?s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life."
~Bob Marley~

CLUE-BY-FOUR DuJour:

Cock shots don't catch girls.

Chocolate, diamonds, cute stuffed animals and integrity do.

(thanks, rose)

Am I the only one that thinks eye bleach would sell like hotcakes around here?

If I see one more beer belly hanging over a diaper, I think i am going to gouge my eyes out.
i'm asked constantly why my profile is so...cold and bitchy. i have a bad history and a fairly bad case of PTSD.

here's my story.

I was 20something, and newly separated from a 7yr relationship with my kids father. A single mom. My mom was terminally ill with cancer. I was in my last year of my apprenticeship in the construction trades. There were 94 apprentices in my class, i was the lone female. (Picture Irish ruled, 10,000 member union, and only 14 of them women.) It was damn good money, damn good benefits and school was free. The men i worked with weren't so pleasant. Needless to say, i was stretched about as far as i could be without snapping. I was also a sheltered, stupid girl. Smart enough to graduate high school at sixteen, but absolutely oblivious when it came to the seedier side of life.

I met this "great guy" in the midst of the madness that was my life. He was good to me. He was good to my kids. He was like a knight riding in to save me from my fucked up life. He smelled blood. I believed in Prince Charming, so I married him.

Until the day we married, he had never hit me, yelled at me, nada.

After he had "ownership papers" aka, a marriage license, he decided to show his true colors. He hit me for the first time 30min after we exchanged vows.

He moved his uncle in with us right after we married. This uncle turned out to be his gay lover, and not an uncle at all. When i learned the truth, i left him. He killed all of my pets, 9 of them in total. Calling and leaving messages describing their deaths in gory detail, telling me i had better come home before he killed another. When that didn't work, he went after my kids with a gun. I went to the police, but it didn't do much good. I ended up going back to him just to keep him calm until i could find a safe place for my kids and me. I was beaten, threatened and terrorized into compliance.

During this time, he viciously beat and killed this "uncle" in our home. Afterward, he took me to a hotel, cuffed me to the bed, took the phone receiver and left. After what seemed an eternity, he returned with the story of how he savagely dismembered this man with a steak knife in our bathtub. He threatened that if i went to the police he would tell them it was me that did the deed and i would never see my kids again. I'd never see the light of day again.

A few weeks later the FBI knocked on my door telling me that he was working for them as an informant and had i seen him. Apparently, he hadn't checked in in a while.

My life became a nightmare. He made me ride around in his car with this mans head behind my seat. He told me if i ever told anyone, we (my kids and i) would be next. He'd bring home copies of of the criminal statutes and tell me what laws i had broken, and how he could get around them, but i couldn't. His FBI buddies would help him. He tapped our phone twice. Once from inside the house with hidden tape recorder, once from the pole in the alley. He would call me incessantly. He would break into my house. He hacked my computer. He obsessively checked the mileage on my car. He slept on my front porch in the middle of February in ass-deep snow. He parked at the end of my street and watched my house.

I was terrified of not going to the police and terrified if i did. What if he caught wind of an investigation through his FBI "buddies"?

Fast forward to 2 1/2 yrs later. He had been stalking me for the entire interim period. We had moved across country trying to escape him and when he found me and my kids and told us he'd make "gator bait" out of us, I moved back home with family. I confessed to my aunt what had happened because i just couldn't live the way i was living anymore, i wanted it over. Her daughter, who eavesdropped, in retaliation for an imagined slight, turned me into the police. She thought she was hurting me, in reality, she saved our lives.

I was arrested and charged with first degree murder. I was also facing the death penalty. I was given a one million dollar bond. My face was all over the news and the papers. My family walked away from me. I got stuck with a overworked, underpaid public defender. Bless his dedicated, smart-as-a-whip self. He never let me go to court alone. He never gave up on me.

I had a complete breakdown upon my arrest. I spent the first three weeks of custody in the mental ward of the jail. Gorked out of my mind on drugs.

I was blessed with this awesome therapist, Dr. Gary. He helped me work through a lot of the "whys" i ended up in the situation i was in. I didn't want to come home the same person that went in. It was intense. I worked my ass off. I refused to accept any possibility i wouldn't go home, much to Dr. Gary's frustration.

Jail was absolute hell. The difference between jail and prison is like the difference between sleeping in the woods without a tent and kicking back in a luxury spa. The rules for detainee (jail) treatment and inmate (prison) treatment are vastly different. I also learned for the first time that i could depend on me. I could survive. I earned my street smarts the hard way. I learned and saw things i never wanted to know, yet, those same things keep me safe now.

All through the court process my ex tortured me. Horrible letters. Visits from creepy people with ominous warnings. On one occasion he was able to reach through the bars of his holding cell when i was walking past it to the courtroom and get me in a choke hold against the bars. Surrounded by armed guards, i knew he could reach out and touch me. Anywhere. Anytime.

They found evidence after the arrest that he was planning another murder and they suspected it was mine. They also managed to get the FBI involved. Their criminal profilers came to the jail and grilled me for hours and hours, only to tell me before they left how sorry they were that i had married a "sociopath the likes of Ted Bundy" and that they were certain there were other victims, but they just couldn't prove it.

My family didn't show up for court dates. They refused to hire a lawyer. They didn't visit (well, i got 3 visits in 3y8m). They told me i "ruined the family name" and they were done with me. Now i have a pretty nifty family, hand-picked by yours truly.

I didn't get to see my kids the entire time i was incarcerated. My family tried to make them forget me. They figured I'd never come home, that my kids just needed to move on.

I sat for 3y8m in a county facility awaiting trial. It took over a year for the prosecutor to realize i had nothing to do with this whole fiasco (even though he gave a 17 page confession), but i was their only witness. A witness who saw nothing, but heard everything from behind a locked door.

They refused to drop my charges. I ended up never having to testify, as they offered him a sweet ass deal for 20yrs. He did 8 1/2. Apparently, their case against him 'mysteriously' fell apart two months before his trial was set to begin, because the coroner changed his mind and could no longer definitively state the "uncle" was murdered, even though that was what was originally on the death certificate and had been for nearly 3 1/2 years. They came to me with a choice: take a guilty plea to concealing a homicide or they would take me to trial on ALL charges, death penalty on the table, and use my ex as a witness against me. Dirty bastards. Ass covering at it's best. Make sure i cannot ever sue. Being that there was too much risk involved with a jury trial, i jumped on it. I was home 4 days later. I stepped off the bus to see my kids waiting. We had Subway sandwiches in the park. It was, and continues to be, an indescribable moment.

He still attempts to contact me with veiled threats. He told our judge that if he ever got out, he was going to hunt me down and kill me.

I suffer from PTSD now and am almost completely agoraphobic. I've also been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis.

Recently, the full weight of my life has finally registered in my brain and i feel like i am drowning. I know it will never go away. I can't hide it. My name and the ensuing story come up five entries down on a Google search. Things will never be "normal" again. I feel like any kind of romantic relationship just isn't possible. I keep everyone i know at arms length. How can i put anyone else at risk with this lunatic roaming the earth? It isn't their fear to carry.

I don't regret what happened. I've taken responsibility for my bad choices. I paid whatever debt i owed to society. I did my best to fix what got me there. It's made me into the woman i am today. I do, however, regret what it did to my kids. I regret the time i lost with them. I regret my family walked away from my kids because of me. I regret all the pain this has caused them.

We've managed to get through this and remain extremely close, but the guilt of it all still eats me alive.

As for our justice system, it is broken. I sat beside so many women charged similarly to me. All but one of them are doing lengthy prison sentences. Some, as high as 88yrs. I was that truly rare instance where, in the end, it worked for the most part. Yes, there was a ton of suffering along the way, but the 'good guy' won. I realize, too, just how lucky i really am.

Don't even get me started on The Media. Pawns in the court of public opinion. They don't report the news, they report what they are fed as news. They maintain enough of the truth to keep from being sued. They embellish enough to destroy your life and reputation, without consequence. Without retraction. Tried and convicted with skewed and twisted versions of facts.?

The most difficult part of all of this is the fact that i have to live like a recluse. I can't get credit, utilities in my name, a bank account, order a magazine subscription, sign up for my favorite store's mailing list. Nothing. I have to live and leave no electronic footprints.

This 'community' is the one place i know he'd never be and never expect me to be. I never shared this part of myself with him. I've lived it, felt the passion, the control, it still burns in my belly, it always will. It would have to be a pretty extraordinary set of circumstances for me to ever be there again and i am not putting my eggs in that basket. I have to be content with what i do have, lest the longing drive me mad.

He knows all of my personal information and he is also a computer fanatic. He does searches for me. How do i know? He finds my friends and family and contacts them. He is absolutely fixated on me.

I can't get an order of protection because he is smart enough to get right to the line of illegal, but never cross it. I can't own a gun, i am a convicted felon. I was issued a new social security number based on domestic violence. I can't change my name because of the felony. Without a new name, the new number is useless. If i marry for a new name, i lose my social security benefits. I don't qualify for witness protection by federal government standards and my state doesn't even have a program for witness protection. He still lives in the same state as i do and knows people everywhere. I am too fucking broke to move. I'm scared shitless i'll run into someone he knows and it'll get back to him.

At one point, this was almost a crusade for me. In the end, because of all his involvement with the different government agencies, FBI, County Sheriff, Postal Inspector, and given the judge that presided over our case was also the same judge that gave my ex probation on another charge and while on that probation, committed this murder, no one wants this shit in the open. No one will touch it. It's my gut feeling this is precisely the reason he got such a sweet deal. Either that or he found someone to inform on in jail.

I've been to the reporters who covered the story originally, from the onset of our arrest. I've talked with criminal attorneys, civil rights attorneys. I've mass mailed letters to everyone from my local politicians, to the governor, the state police, both our federal senators. I've assaulted their fax machines with letters. It made a few ripples and i received a call from the states attorney (who penned a letter i had attached with my letter, where she states clearly, "Based on my knowledge of the case and the information obtained, I believe XXX XXXXX is a threat to "Snippette" and her family. Please assist her in obtaining a new social security number.") telling me i had better stop showing that letter around or i wouldn't like the consequences. She was running for office as a judge.? Seems there is nothing that can be done to protect myself, legally.

Fucking politics.

As much as the thought of a confrontation with him scares me, i know he'll be there for one reason only, my demise, the mere thought of killing him in a frenzy of fear scares me more. Fear of turning into an animal capable of killing, even if it is self-defense. Fear of turning into something resembling him. Fear of being victimized by the justice system, again.

I am mentally prepared, but i want to avoid it at all costs.

I am physically prepared. There's a weapon of sorts within arms reach in every room of my apartment.

My nightmare isn't over. It may not be fear based on imminent danger, but it's the fucking purple elephant in the room no one ever discusses and everyone pretends not to see.

I don't want pity. I don't want revenge. I don't want to be rescued. I'm not really even concerned with getting justice anymore.

As for those i have met since this occurred, I've yet to have one person NOT throw it in my face in the heat of anger. "Fucking axe murderer." "Fucking cannibal." You name it, I have been called it. I don't trust anyone anymore.

Judge me if you will, but I have already been judged. It's over and done. My debt has been paid.

All i want is to have a life again. Is that too fucking much to ask?

am i the only one who gets their rankles up when they read in a profile.."looking for a TRUE sub/slave"?

i've come to the conclusion that those using the term "true" really mean that the sub/slave should shut the fuck up, never need anything, never want anything and never disagree.

i'm also thinking the only "TRUE" subs and slaves are blow-up dolls, the rest of us human subs/slaves are just too much work.

fucking tools.
They say everyone has a calling. Art is a calling. Medicine is a calling. Politics is a calling. Music is a calling.

What I wonder, though, is being a whore also a calling?

I remember having vivid, recurring, submissive dreams as a small girl. I remember the teenage boy next door who used to touch me, too. I also remember liking it. Wanting it. Seeking it out. I loved the way it felt when he touched me. I loved the way it made me tingle. I loved the pure rush of power at being able to make him moan. What he did to me didn?t ruin my life. It didn?t fuck me up. I don?t hate him or what he did. Even as a little girl I craved the dirty, the nasty, the taboo.

As time went on and I grew up, my parents pounded into my head to "never be a whore". If you liked sex, you were a whore. If you wanted sex, you were a whore. If you had sex, you were a whore. ?Whore? equated to disloyal, to unethical, to untrustworthy, to one lacking in character and honor and worth. I came to realize this was the general consensus amongst most of society.

I, very naturally, began to repress my 'core whore'. Splinter her off. Stuff her in a box. I became a closet whore. No one would have ever guessed, I made sure of it. Still, men seemed to smell her. Covet her. Obsess over her. Run from her power. Humiliate themselves just to get a piece of her but, like a rare delicacy, she was always too rich to become their steady diet.

I compartmentalized all of that sexual energy. The intuitiveness went into the astrology box. The faithfulness and devotion went into the spirituality box. The curiosity and ingenuity went into the ?tinkering? box. The intensity and creativity went into the art and writing box. The passion and determination went into the 'defending the underdog' box. I deconstructed her. I gave her outlets where she could excel. In doing so, I could control her and, in turn, protect her from others, as well as herself.

I?ve struggled my entire life with this push-me/pull-me of who I am juxtaposing with who I am being a socially unacceptable commodity. So, I learned to control her with an iron fist and held back the velvet glove.
No relationship? No thoughts of sex, period. The feelings don?t exist. The needs don?t exist. Slip on your rose-colored glasses and say goodnight, Gracie.
IN a relationship? My sexuality rolls over men like an avalanche. It?s a starving, post-hibernating beast that I cannot control and it races to burn ever hotter, ever brighter. Scorching everything in it?s path on it's quest to feed and be fed. All the compartments come together; all the skills, all the talents, all the depth of devotion, all the intuition and awareness of nuance, all the unquenchable passion. Overwhelming the recipients like a tsunami. Their responses never ceasing to confuse and devastate my spirit.

Men only want a whore til they are done with her because, of course, whores have no other redeeming qualities. No other use. No worth. No value. Whores cannot be trusted to control their cunts, so how dare they expect to be trusted by a man? Being a whore is a lonely existence that leaves me feeling disposable in the eyes of others. So, i keep my whore in the closet.

It's tough. It's agonizing. You 'know what you know' about the caliber of person you are, but the world never seems to get past the judgment of 'whore' to see that a whore is a beautiful symphony of many natural talents, honed skills, vast depths and applied energies. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.

I know I'm ok. I know my worth. I know what it takes to be a good whore. I understand the work involved. I just wish everyone else did. I know I feel most empowered, most complete, most serene, most fulfilled, most 'at home', most ALIVE in my whore-ishness. I'm completely and utterly fearless and brimming with confidence.

I wish I had faith there was One who wouldn't be turned to ash by the fire that burns in me, but my faith wanes.

Was I born to be a whore and, for the love of Pete, why?

And?am I the only one?
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT By snippette:

the way to a woman's head and heart is NOT through her cunt.

the way to a woman's cunt and heart IS through her head.

your cock is not a God. the man attached to it should be.

just sayin'.
silly FB quizzes can be spot on once in a while...
"What warning sign should you come with?" and got the result ? You can go from zero to bitch in 3.5 seconds!
 
You're a good person & you have a good head on your shoulders. You're compassionate and kind but if crossed people often won't know what hit them. You can be vicious. Your point when angry is well taken and people often don't try to piss you off a second time."
sometimes, miracles hide under the guise of asthma inhalers and watermelons.

just sayin'.
folks here are fucking IDJITS.? here's a clue-by-four people...
if someone has a bitchy profile and state they don't want to make new friends...it's HIGHLY likely they don't want to discuss their sex lives either.

fucking tools.
Carlin had it right.

I come from a long line of women who love using the word "fuck". My mom loved using it, my aunts love using it, my daughter is quite good at using it and seems to love it like her elders.

Fuck is my favorite word. Ever.

Long live the use of "FUCK"!!

**The History And Many Uses Of The Word Fuck lyrics by George Carlin**

"Perhaps one of the most interesting words in the English language today, is the word FUCK.
Out of all of the English words which begin with the letter F, FUCK is the only word referred to as the 'F' word, it's the one magical word.
FUCK as most words in the English language, is derived from German, the word 'fricken[?]', which means to strike.
In English, FUCK falls into many grammatical categories.
As a transitive verb, for instance.
John FUCK-ed Shirley.
As an intransitive verb, Shirley FUCKS.
It's meaning's not always sexual; it can be used as an adjective, such as John's doing all the FUCK-ing work.
As part of an adverb, Shirley talks too FUCK-ing much.
As an adverb enhancing an adjective, Shirley is FUCK-ing beautiful.
As a noun, I don't give a FUCK.
As part of a word abso-FUCKING-lutely, or in-FUCKING-credible.
And, as almost every word in the sentence, FUCK the FUCK-ing FUCK-ers.
As you must realize, there aren't too many words with the versatility of FUCK.
As in these examples describing situations such as fraud, I got FUCK-ed at the used car lot.
Dismay, Aw FUCK it.
Trouble, I guess I'm really FUCK-ed now.
Aggression, Don't FUCK with me buddy.
Difficulty, I don't understand this FUCK-ing question.
Inquiry, Who the FUCK was that?
Dissatisfaction, I don't like what the FUCK is going on here.
Incompetence, He's a FUCK-off.
Dismissal, Why don't you go outside and play hide-and-go-FUCK yourself?
I'm sure you can think of many more examples.
With all these multi-purpose applications, how can anyone be offended when you use the word?
We say, use this unique, flexible word more often in your daily speech.
It will identify the quality of your character immediately.
Say it loudly, and proudly!
FUCK you!"
So, i turned 40something the other day.

I've begun to realize i have a really bad case of "i don't give a fuck."

I like my life, just the way it is. Yeah, i'd like a better apartment in a better neighborhood, but that's soon to come.

I really don't want a man in my life. I spent countless years convinced i NEEEEEEEDED a man in my life, convinced i wanted one, convinced i was somehow less a woman because i couldn't find one that "fit".

When i am alone, i get to do what i like. It might not always be what's "best", but i'm lucky enough to land on my feet in those situations.

When i'm alone, i can scratch my ass, belch, fart, not shave, spit, cuss and wear tattered sweats.

When i'm alone, i don't have to feel like i am giving more than i am getting in return.

When i'm alone, the only messes i clean are my own.

When i'm alone i twiddle my twat when i get good and ready, not when someone else does. Which seems to be less and less. Orgasms just aren't the end-all-be-all i was brainwashed to believe they were. Besides, they're much better and less stressful, not to mention drama-free, when achieved alone.

When i'm alone, i don't have to pretend to feel things i don't feel, think things i don't think, and i certainly don't have to pretend to be someone i am not for the sake of someone else's wants/needs/projections.

When i'm alone, i sleep when i want, clean when i want, eat when i want, have whoever i choose as a friend.

I can do all of these things and not have to justify, answer for, or fight to keep.

There was a time i would have devoted my life to a Master.

I think that time has passed.

I like being alone and i really don't give a fuck if people think i "deserve better".

Do you know a sociopath when you see one?

Profile of the Sociopath

This summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths. You know this guy?

?Glibness and Superficial Charm
?Manipulative and Conning
?They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.
?Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."

?Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.

?Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.

?Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.

?Incapacity for Love
?Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.

?Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others' feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.

?Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.

?Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet "gets by" by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.

?Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.

?Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.

?Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.

?Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

Other Related Qualities:

1. Contemptuous of those who seek to understand them
2. Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them. Authoritarian, Secretive, Paranoid
3. Only rarely in difficulty with the law, but seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired
4. Conventional appearance
5. Unable to feel remorse or guilt
6. Extreme narcissism and grandiose


From Phantom Of The Opera:

In sleep he sang to me
In dreams he came
That voice which calls to me
And speaks my name
And do I dream again?
For now I find
The phantom of the opera is there,
Inside my mind

Phantom:
Sing once again with me
Our strange duet
My power over you
Grows stronger yet
And though you turn from me
to glance behind
The phantom of the opera is there
Inside your mind

Those who have seen your face
Draw back in fear
I am the mask you wear
It's me they hear

My/Your spirit and my/your voice
In one combined
The phantom of the opera is there
inside my/your mind

Chorus:
Is that the phantom of the opera?
Beware the phantom of the opera
In all your fantasies you always knew
That man and mystery
Were both in you

Both:
And in this labyrinth
Where night is blind
The Phantom of the opera is here/there

Christine:
Inside my mind

Phantom:
Sing, my Angel of Music!

CHRISTINE
He's there,
the Phantom of the Opera .








I am so tired of being 'too'.

Too emotional.
Too needy.
Too demanding.
Too damaged.
Too intense.
Too deep.
Too dark.
Too kinky.
Too nice.
Too angry.
Too understanding.
Too smart.
Too strong.
Too sensitive.
Too resilient.
Too detached.

Why is it so few people can handle 'too'?
sighs heavily


If you want to be a God, be her God.
?
She will worship and follow you because?

Your tenets and commandments will become the fiber that holds all the facets of her life together. Your word becomes her law, because your laws make her life work better than hers do. Viewing the world through your perceptions, her vision is clearer. Her world makes sense.

When she whispers her fears and insecurities to you, on her knees in prayer, you reveal to her your wisdom. You guide her mind to the proper ways, in alignment with your teachings. She is willingly opening herself to indoctrination. It's up to you to find the right passages in your bible to show her the error of her ways.

When she becomes too complacent, too distracted, you have the power to quake the earth beneath her feet. To shock her into realization.

When she confesses her sins, your punishment is thunderous, powerful, swift and just. Your benevolence in allowing her to attain atonement deepens her devotion.

People worship that which soothes their spirit. That which forgives. That which grants blessings to devout followers. That which allows them to be transparent, loved and accepted. That which expects no less than the best, at all times. That which presents tests of faith and devotion through suffering and obedience. That which explains why things are the way they are.

She?ll become addicted to the connection. When she prays to her God at night, it?s because she KNOWS He is listening. Omnipresent in her life. Omnipotent in His knowing of her. Her faith in Him slowly developing into something unshakable.

She will evolve from believer, to disciple, to priestess because you are her truth, her light, and her way. Permeating the very fiber of who she is. Without you, her life is an eternity in hell.

If you want to be a God, you have to BE a God?
and being a God is no easy task.

Here's a little fable:

Once upon a time the different parts of the body got into an argument over who was going to be the boss.
The brain said it should be the boss because it thinks, it makes all the other parts of the body function.
The legs piped up and said they should be the boss because without them the body couldn't move to get food to keep the brain alive.
The eyes piped up and said they should be the boss because without them the body couldn't see to walk to feed the brain.
Finally, the asshole speaks up and says he should be the boss. All the other body parts laughed. In retaliation, he decided to close up. Days went by.
The brain got foggy.
The legs got weak.
The eyes got blurry.
Eventually, they all surrendered to the asshole.
Moral of the story:
You don't have to be smart, or strong, or perceptive, you just have to be an asshole.

I see it. Time and again.

"I offer training for newbies."

Training? Seriously? What makes you such a GrandMasterUberDomlinessOmnipotent?

Why, and better yet, HOW can you propose that YOUR flavor of training is all encompassing or even necessary?

This is a really bad attempt at luring in n00bs to get YOUR fix, like an addict.

More often than not, the training men like you offer has to be UNDONE by the next Master said n00b chooses to serve.

To those subs and slaves new to this life: Beware of trolls under the bridge. They DO bite, most times right in the ass.

The only training "needed" is the training YOUR Dominant requires for HIS specific purposes.

Take off my clothes, turn out the lights
But I burn letters that I write

Yeah, I drive naked through the park
And run the stop sign in the dark
Stand in the street, yell out my heart
To make, to make you love me

I am extraordinary, if you'd ever get to know me
I am extraordinary, I am just your ordinary

You may not believe in me
But I believe in you
So I still take the trash out
Does that make me too normal for you?

So dig a little deeper, cause
You still don't get it yet
See me lickin' my lips, need a primitive fix
And I'll make, I'll make you love me

Why do many Italian men have this uncontrollable need to TELL you they're Italian?

Like it sweetens the deal or something?
Hawks win!
Why do ice cream trucks play Christmas carols?
Just because You are the Master and i am the slave, does not excuse You from working at a relationship and it does not excuse You from reciprocity. Stripped from all the labels and roles, we are just a couple of fucked up people that need someone that loves them for them.

Even M/s is a give and take.
And that doesn't mean i always give and You always take.
This is about an Us, not simply a You.
I am really beginning to believe I am just not relationship material.

Random thoughts on this have been swirling around me for years, but a recent relationship meltdown brought it all to the forefront again.

Let?s start with the obvious. I have rheumatoid arthritis. Physically this prevents me from doing a lot of things. Do I really want to burden another human being with my suffering? Add in that I have PTSD and rarely leave my house and my usefulness is greatly diminished.

The most disturbing of thoughts , though, are those that creep in. The ones that tell me I really like the life I have built. That I worked too damn hard to have the sense of contentment with where I am in life.
I like getting up when I want.
I like eating what I want.
I like that I can finally stand up for myself and do things on my own.
I like that I have created my own boundaries and rules.
I like that I have expectations of others. Without them people don't have a clue what to aspire to.
I like speaking my mind and not worrying whether I am humble or uppity or uncunted and not having ?Masterly? repercussions.
I like coming and going on my whim, not that I do, I just like knowing I have the choice.
All of this, of course, is in direct opposition to the slave that lives in me and I wonder if I have come to a point where I own her now. ?
She?s mine and I am not giving her up.
She serves when I let her, with whom I let her (family, friends) and she really doesn?t feel the black sucking hole of not serving.
She loves with abandon on my terms.
I make sure she is safe and loved and secure.
My inner slave and I have a relationship, there really is no room for anyone else.
I?ve worked long and hard getting to where I am, who I am. I?m sure I?d resent giving it all up.
I mourn that she will probably never be owned by Another again, but at the same time, we have a pretty good thing going on.

And it don't bleed, and it don't breathe
It's locked its jaws & now it's swallowing
It's in our heart, it's in our heads
It's in our love, baby, it's in our bed
It holds my arms down, sits upon my chest
It waves its finger at me every night & day
And it don't rest
And it don't breathe and it don't bleed
It's locked its jaws and now it's swallowing
It's in our hope, baby, it's in our bed
And once again the monster speaks
Reveals his face and searches for release...
Submission is only potential. It?s akin to a blunt ended steel rod. To take the focus, the passion, the devotion, the sexuality, and hone it to a fine point. Him. This is when it becomes something other than ?just? potential, it becomes something exquisite. "Do you see, girl??

I mulled this statement over for a very long time. I compartmentalize absolutely everything. I have ?switches? I flip off and on, at will. The switch for my sex drive, for emotions, etc. I flip these switches, sometimes, I get it right. Sometimes, I cut off my nose to spite my face, sometimes, I isolate myself from the world, sometimes I am just a downright, evil cunt.

Except when I am ?honed to a fine point.?
He knows my switches better than me. And dammit, it feels so good to not obsess over them.
He cares for me. Infuriates me. Frustrates me. Challenges me. He drags me back, kicking and screaming, and works me until I am begging Him to forgive me for ever running in the first place.

I think I understand, now, that my submission is merely potential. Honed, it IS something exquisite.

i realize my core nature is submissive, is to be pleasing. not to everyone, but One. when it isn't honed, focused, it is haphazard. it goes wherever it goes, because it will be heard, it will be fed, and it feeds in ways it took me a long time to recognize. i find myself rolling over for people i care about, many times to my own detriment. i take on too much. i push my own limits.

i am better to myself, better to others, and most importantly, better to Him. because i have been sharpened. all of that submission has a purpose. my life isn't a pick, and mix of submissive acts. i am a stubborn bitch. i fight tooth and nail, even though i know it's best.

all i am sayin' is this...it feels good He works me into such fine points, as much as i fight sometimes, hate it, and Him...i love it, i love Him...he took random submission (and random masochism, which is an entirely different beast, lol), and gave it a purpose.

the compartmentalization is gone. the feeling "out of place" is gone. the switches get flipped for a purpose. the futility i felt from the randomness of it is gone.

all because that random submission was simply nothing more than potential looking for purpose.
my submission in my hands is potential -restless and sometimes careless, oft times reckless- my submission in His hands IS.
Epiphanies--the universal equivalent of a bitch slap.
I?ve spent a lot of time over the years contemplating what I need from a relationship.
Needing to be loved.
Needing to be appreciated.
Needing to be accepted.
Needing to be kissed.
Needing to be heard.
Needing to be wanted and desired.
All of that was shattered recently. He told me He needed me. Suddenly, everything I THOUGHT I needed fell away. My walls crumbled. An ache came over me like nothing before.
I am needed. When it?s all said and done, as long as we need each other, there is nothing we cannot achieve. Nothing we cannot overcome. Nothing we cannot give each other. Nothing we cannot be for each other. Love comes, love goes. Need is ever present. Need makes us strive to be better. Need pushes us to keep close that which we need.
Given the choice, I would rather be needed than ?loved? any day.
Given the choice, i would rather need Him than love Him.
"Love is a fickle beast," he says.
He is right.
Need is not fickle, it just......IS.
so, i am considering packing for a journey. i've placed all the things on my table that i know i cannot make my journey without.
seems there isn't room in my luggage for all i need for such an arduous journey.
i look longingly at the table...and i know, i know deep down, i need everything on it.
there are no guarantees i can find what i need on my journey to replace what i am leaving behind.

I need to be able to be myself.
I need to feel emotionally safe.
I need love in both directions.
I need a structured, regimented bubble.
I need to be heard.

i cannot....i just cannot leave them behind. i will wither and die.

there's a vast chasm between demeaning one into weakness and enticing them into deference.

?becoming?.


I guess it is part of my kink?this ?becoming?. Being open enough to allow a seed to be planted. Being fertile enough in mind to nurture it until it sprouts.? Allowing it to be attended regularly until it thrives. Providing a crop on which to feed.


?your fantasy is how dark??

Tada! It?s yours.

Not because I feel I have to, not because it?s my duty, but because it turns me on to morph. To actually?..become something i never was.


Now, it comes with strings?as all things worth having do. One must tend the garden. Water it. Nurture it. Let it grow in it?s own season. It takes dedication. It takes patience. It takes getting down and getting your hands dirty.


Every gardener needs fertile ground.
validation, woot.

so, i was asked last night to become a mod in chat. apparently, some people see my value, my worth and the wisdom i have learned as assets.

lalalalalalalala, yay me.
the "arrogant" person who wrote me the previous email turned out to not be so arrogant..he apologized. i accepted.
the point of my previous journal entry was/is this:


not all women are physically capable. many men put that pressure on a woman when she knows what her body is capable of and then deal a further blow by telling her she can, that all women can, and what is left are all these feelings of inadequacy. feeling inadequate to oneself, to others, as well as viewing all prior sexual encounters as inadequate. as far as for present and future experiences, if these things do not happen...it inevitably leads to expectations of self and/or others that may be unrealistic and impossible and we all know things snowball. guess where to? low self-esteem. if you're chasing an impossible goal, where will you find contentment, when do you stop looking for *new and improved* (just look at cleaning products in the store..*new and improved formula* *better than before*)? can't we just? be jim dandy the way we are?...and we wonder why society is the way it is...disposable.


i am sick and tired of having my inability to do these things taken as a personal affront to someone's manhood and a challenge to their sexual prowess.


i am not "too afraid to let go".


i am not a challenge.


i am not a freak.


and fuck you very much for trying to make me feel that way.
here's a perfect example of the arrogance of which i spoke of in my last journal entry. i received this letter today in my mail:


Hello snippette, I've made every woman that was ever in love with me squirt and a few who weren't. I don't think there's any woman out there that can't do it. I think it might be more about finding someone that you feel comfortable enough to totally let go with and also knows what they're doing. The last total squirting newbie I made do it by tying her legs to her ankles and then to a couple eye hooks above the bed so she was spread open and mostly immobilized.?I then?tied her hair up as well so it would pull on it whenever she moved her head. Then I started on her with the Hitachi Magic Wand vibrator and after she got very wet I used the very end of it just inside the front of her vagina as an insertable and she totally soaked the bed after having multiple orgasms. She loved it but after I released her and?she saw how much she had squirted and how wet the bed was she kind of freaked out.?She skulked off and?went downstairs out into the garage where I found her and talked to her about it crying because she felt embarrased by it. After assuring her it wasn't urine which it isn't, and reassuring her it was very sexy and hot she now loves it. Most women I've trained to squirt I've done it with my fingers while making out combined with light up close domination?and talking them into letting go by whispering dirty things in their ear.

Anyways, don't stop trying but don't really try, if it feels like you have to pee when you're having sex or being fingered?don't be ashamed to let it out. If the guy you're with doesn't like it, find one that does. I've had a couple women tell me that vanilla men have acted disgusted when they've had a squirting orgasm. It's not urine, it comes out of the?urethra but it comes from some other part of your body not your bladder. It's like the path to the bladder gets blocked and this other passageway where this female ejaculate is stored at opens up. Going to the bathroom before sex though is a good idea just to reassure yourself that it's not urine if anything. If it were urine my bed would smell like a truck stop toilet it has been squirted on so many times, though I generally lay towels down for it most of the time. It's really just a watery liquid and doesn't have much taste either, ambrosia.

Have a great week,

D.


my response:?

i've never felt like i had to pee during orgasm, ever.

and as far as a vibe...come at me with one and you'll meet my inner serial killer. vibes do nothing for me except piss me off, make me nauseous, give me cramps akin to labor pains and make me want to killyou. and guess what else? it successfully guarantees i will NOT have an orgasm.

i know what squirting is. and i have NEVER come close. i doubt i ever will. you act as if i have had only 3 lovers in my life. i've done a lot of fucking, had a lot of partners, in my 42yrs and i refuse to feel inadequate because i don't fit in this square hole every man i meet insists i fit into. and why do all men insist on putting that pressure on a woman by telling he she can, when scientifically it has been proven that not all women can squirt and not all women are multi-orgasmic? ...which i am not.

also, if i am to take you seriously, then that makes every lover i have ever had inadequate, and any future lover i meet who cannot make me squirt or multi just the *wrong* person for me.

BAH! horseshit.

you could have saved the *wait til you meet the right person* speech...some of us are just built this way.


i am nearly 43, me and my "10 little indians" learned my body waaaaaaaay before a man ever did. i have accepted the fact that i am not multi-orgasmic, i am also not a squirter.

i have very powerful orgasms, sometimes to the point of passing out. i do not want to be touched afterward, it is excruciatingly painful. i also have the same excruciating pain when a vibe is used.


what irks me to no end, are the platitudes of men who swear they can make me multi, squirt, or able to tolerate a vibe.

what i find happens most with men is that instead of hearing what is being said to them, they ignore it and push onward. most times this just forces me to feel like i have to fake it because they EXPECT it...too many times i have opted for the honest route and been punished for being unable to cum when commanded.

have you ever been going along, thinking everything was cool, and get blindsided?


have you ever felt frozen inside, unable to think, to do anything but react to being bombarded with anger, and thus, kept you from defending yourself and agreeing with everything just so the anger stops?


has it ever taken you time to go back and replay the conversation and see where you could have said this or that and kicked yourself in the ass because you didn't, and had you, it might have made a difference?


have you ever felt the frustration of double standards? of having someone upset with you for faltering, when they themselves struggle with the same issue?


::sighs:: dealing with people should not be this hard.





i can't resist a good documentary.

i like to make people think.

i have a bit of a passion for studying religions, past and present.

i am quite the proficient astrologer.

i am a practicing Reiki.

I?ve been pondering why it is that people have so many problems here, in this ?beyond the norm? realm we all occupy. These are my thoughts?



There are four categories, or types, of people in ?this thing of ours?. The Purists, the Romantics, the Romantic-Purists and the Toybaggers. I?ll try and describe each and then explain why I think the system breaks down.



The Purists



This group consists of? Masters and slaves that believe that slavery and Mastery do not, and should not, come from a place of romantic or, sometimes even, emotional attachment. I view them to hold the closest tenets of the historical understanding of slavery and human bondage.? Property without humanity. 24/7. It is what it is, stripped to the core.



The Romantics



This group consists of? Dominants and submissives that have a very romantic ideal of? this ?thing of ours?. They may or may not live 24/7. They also do not demand a great deal from their Dominance and submission. This is not an insult (before I get hate mail). I am just recognizing that this group of people? tend to be idealists.? Friction and demands ruin the ideal.



The Romantic-Purists



Now, this group tends to be the most complicated of the four. These people have traits of both aforementioned groups.? For this group, when it comes to romantic love,? *this* is the way in which they need to express this particular kind of love. Many of these people desire a 24/7 M/s, highly mentally stimulating environment. These folks are also highly idealistic, but almost compulsively driven to continually ?step up the game?.



The Toybaggers



This group of folks are what you?d consider weekend warriors. These are the folks that you? frequently see at events and play parties. They want the toy baggage without the emotional baggage.? They are in it for the fun and physicality.




Now, the problem I see happening is that each group exists here and many people in each group cannot or will not recognize what group they belong in and because of this oversight, go swimming in the wrong pond.?

There is nothing wrong with being who you are. Be it. Enjoy it. It is YOUR life, after all.? I just ask you to think before you? act. Understand who you are. By doing so you can recognize a freak that makes the same noise that you do. If not, you waste your time, as well as someone else?s, and really, all we have is limited time.


So, grab a flag and head to your beach!

Lina and The Russian?


My best friend has the most pure D/s relationship I have ever witnessed.


These two? have found a dynamic?without a website. Without a toy bag. Without pretense. Without? pomp and circumstance.


It was a melding of minds. An ivy that took over a forest. There was no expectation of roles, not in the beginning. I wonder, at times, if they even knew the dynamic they were creating.


I find them and what they have fascinating and at the same time..it leaves me aching for a ?Russian? of my own.


What they have is pure. Untouched by the scene. Unimpressed with a toy bag.? Uninterested in proving to others just how D/s they really are.


With the way I witness so many others pushing and bullheadedly running roughshod over the scads of women aching to serve?what they have is a testament to how it should TRULY be.


And many a self-proclaimed Dom could learn much from The Russian.


That?s my story, and I am sticking to it.


word of the day:


maenad; also known as bacchante.


"<+bxxxxxxxxl> they're the batshit crazy female followers of Bacchus, I'm pretty sure."


i can totally relate.
you know what i find completely fascinating?

the fact that my roomie can turn ANYTHING into a taco.? ::smh::
to my dearest, closest, longest-lasting friend, trampolina:


my entire D/s/bdsm journey has been chronicled with you...as much of yours has been shared with me..


we've always been sort of each others secret keeper...maybe we can share some of them here and take a few more steps along the path...learn something new about ourselves and maybe others.


welcome to my world...exercise your voice, my dear. you have much to be heard by others.


thank you for being brave...i am so proud of you and eye heart ewe 4evah.


mwah.
so, let's discuss aural fixations, shall we?


until recently, every dominant i have ever had any type of deeper dealings with have always been Daddies. every single one.


until recently.


and it isn't so much that i am conflicted by this new need to NOT have a Daddy, but a Master...so much as it is..why?


why now? after 17yrs of Daddies, why do i feel compelled to call One Master...and the mere thought of him as Daddy just doesn't feel *right*...it isn't as if he doesn't have Daddy tendencies and qualities...he does, much of the time...and i guess that's where the need to want to know why my reaction to him is different than anything before.


i've always had a very emotional attachment to the use of *Daddy*...and a very emotional detachment from the use of *Master*....and it seems the tables have turned.


and me being me, i want to know WHY.


i'll be digging around in this one for a while...if anyone has any ideas...feel free.
you know, it really pisses me off that this *life* has been reduced to D/s being all about sex and the toy bag.

i read again and again in profiles..."i want a submissive i can train for *such and such* sexual, masochistic acts", "i will train her to worship me".

um, DUDE, you cannot train a woman to worship you, you have to deserve to be worshiped... and no, making her have multiple orgasms won't make her worship you....if that were the case, she'd worship her fingers and her vibe and wouldn't need you.

D/s isn't about getting laid, it's about building a relationship on a foundation other than a gawddamn orgasm, his or hers.

and if you think your toy bag makes you a man, you belittle everything D/s truly is.
have you ever felt the honor of being someone's secret diary?


the place they come to tell all their secrets? the one they trust above all others with the worst and best of who they are, knowing you won't judge, but rather try to *see* the world through their eyes?


to look at the One you love and watch the unburdening unfold?


to see the weight lifted off weary shoulders and witness a crack of a smile ensue as He stands just a little bit taller?


to watch His passions uncoil like long forgotten rope...and see Him grow with their power?


to love every scar. every wound. every success. every failure.

...because all of those things encompass who He is... and who He is thrills You to the core and soothes your soul?


if not, you should try it...it is pretty damn amazing.

when a submissive/slave fails, who holds responsibility?


my take is this...when a submissive/slave fails miserably, it is her responsibility, but also, her dominant holds responsibility for not creating a foundation on which she can feel safe and secure in her service.


if there is confusion, it is the dominants responsibility to clear that confusion up. if he does not, she is bound to fail- again and again.


it is the submissive/slaves responsibility to express her fears constructively and ask for help.


if there is a reasonable expectation that she interpret his needs, he cannot get bent out of shape if she gets it wrong.


both parties have to be willing to put forth the effort to work through issues.


both parties have to be willing to take responsibility for any failures that occur.


both parties have to be committed to working out any problem that rears its head, no matter how difficult.


if any part of the equation is missing, the relationship is doomed for failure.
any Dominant, no matter how lame...can find a cumrag to jag off on....but it takes a Master to be able to have a pure, priceless gem to cum all over.
have you ever felt like curling into a ball and crying until your eyes bleed because you know, no matter what you do...you can't undo a wrong?
sex should be a brilliantly written, beautifully choreographed musical of hearts and minds and spirits...destined for the lights of Broadway....most people are just too afraid to take the stage, much less write a tune or dream a dance combo...

"Your village called, they said they're missing their idiot."

...if i see "strick" instead of "strict" one more time....people, do you not realize your grammar, spelling and punctuation are what give people the first impression of you?..::shakes my head::

and for those of you wondering why my journals always have that "< br >"in them, it's because it makes a page break, which helps in how your journal appears when searching profiles...ever notice your stuff all jammed together? well, that little trick solves that problem. ::winks::
i think i have "the ague"...stuffy nose, scratchy throat, fever, body aches..i've layered on a bunch of clothes and buried myself under a heap of blankets, took some ibuprofen...drinking lemonade and trying to stay warm...ugh, i hate being sick.

on a positive note...i can lie in bed and watch endless documentaries...not that i need any more useless information cluttering my brain...haha
today has been generally....CRAPOLA.


day number three with no contact from the Man... i think it's safe to say........ the party is over.

fickle damn fonts.

my roommate snuck her woman beater boyfriend into my house... after he physically attacked me and i banned him from the premises. i caught him dipping out the door this morning... i asked her about it and she looked me in the eyes and swore he wasn't there..... so, me being me.... i told her i knew she was lying, that i saw him.... her response?.... "i didn't want you fussing at me and i needed some? dick."

.......like, um...get a room in a hotel.

i just want to stand up and scream.."that's IT, everyone get the hell out of my house!".....her little $100/mo is not worth the aggravation and worry if this fugger is going to jump on me again.

thank gawd for landlords and mindless jobs. maybe i can keep busy enough painting and cleaning to make the world go away.....or at least keep me from kicking someone's ass.

let's hope so, no one i know has bail money. LOL
?
i don't think i will be writing here anymore, someone sucked the wind from my sails and the jig is up. an entire body of work that holds my souls secrets was assessed and trashed viciously based on one well-meaning, albeit, badly aimed attempt... i am left wondering what scab i picked open to garner such passionately deprecating verbiage, because anger is never about anger, it's usually just a cover for some other emotion:



"you write like an elderly person eats ice cream, slowly, painfully, sloppily."



twelve little words strung together and the confidence in seven years work is GONE...i wonder if He knows. i wonder if He cares. i wonder if that was His intention. not to mention, i might risk inflaming that demon again and truly, humiliation has it's place, confidence destruction doesn't. i'd rather just hold it all in than risk that kind of vile reaction again. it's one thing to look at criticism from others and dismiss what they say as *opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink*.......it's something entirely different when it is someone you respect and NEED to appreciate what you feel is a talent, something you find yourself dreaming of doing on a larger scale, something people before Him have encouraged because they saw worth there....and He doesn't...not that i have a right to complain...what i feel shouldn't matter and what He does should...but somehow it DOES matter, and with that feeling roiling inside of me...my confidence in my own submission wanes....and for those well-meaning folks who feel compelled to write and tell me He is wrong...thanks for the sentiment, but truthfully, i didn't post here to rally the troops for an ambush, i wrote here to vent...it's easy to say "it's all about Him" when i intellectualize it....not so easy when i emotionalize it...and i question myself...am i even capable of making the intellectual and emotional co-exist when they're completely at odds?
ok, i truly am a masochist.

day after day i come here...hoping beyond hope to find what my soul craves, and all i find are shallow, vapid, scared people.

shallow in that they cannot bring themselves to transcend the flesh to discover more.

vapid in that they have entrenched themselves so deeply in fetish that they are stuck in a rut, refusing to even entertain anything more.

scared in that they will portray themselves here as being one thing, but when faced with reality, turn tail and run.

yet, i come back every day, ripping my own guts to shreds....bleeding, always bleeding.
?Will you walk to the edge of the cliff??

Blindfolded as we drive. I can feel the wind whipping through my hair, feel my fingers snapping back gently as I let the wind blow through them.?

?Where are we going??

Do you trust me? If so, lean back and enjoy the ride. Settling back, I feel the apprehension growing inside of me.

?We?re here.?

Off comes the blindfold. Out of the car. Walk with me.

?Will you walk to the edge of the cliff??

Silently, I walk behind. Every step one step closer to the edge. A whirlwind of emotions stirring within. Fear. Hope. Need. Want. Ache.

?Look over the side.?

His hands in my hair, forcing my head to bend. Eyes wide with terror. Such a long drop from our high perch. Certain death should I fall.

?Will you walk to the edge of the cliff??

My eyes looking into his. ?Yes.?

With my arms at my sides, he trusses me like a Sunday pot roast. Arms immobile. Blindfold back on. Gentle tugs on the rope, guiding me to the edge.

?Curl your toes over the edge. Be still. Don?t waver, lest you fall.?

I hear the rope unravel as it?s end is tossed over the side.? Feel it?s end being tossed in the wind. Is he tugging? Will I fall over the edge? Teetering. I won?t fall, I won?t fall. Toes gripping the edge. I won?t fall, I won?t fall.

?Come to me.?

I hear his voice echo through the canyon as I feel the last tug on the rope.

Falling. Screaming. Terror. Exhilaration. Stomach lurching in revolt. Tears streaming. Helpless to my choice. Unable to even grasp at air to break my fall. Wetting myself like an infant. Falling. Then it halts.

?You caught me!?

Relief and gratitude sets in, as does shame and disgust with the state of my appearance.

?Of course I did, silly girl. Let?s get you cleaned up, shall we??

Tenderly he cleanses me in the cool water of the stream. Fear and shame rinsed away.

?Will you walk to the edge of the cliff??

?Yes, with you, I will walk anywhere.?

Wicked grin. Mercurial eyes.

"Good girl, next time we try a 200ft. cliff."
my roommate said something truly awesome to me today after my neighbor, who is moving out, decided to ask if i wanted her chocolate brown suede with cherry wood table living room furniture set, free..

"snip, you have such good luck...you know why that is? it's because you're nice to everybody."

that made me feel like a million bucks.


youuuuuuu might be a redneck...well, wanna-dom?

if your profile has more pics of your toys than it does of you...youuuuuuu might be a wanna-dom.

if you're married and think that being fuck buddies constitutes a *meaningful relationship*...youuuuu might be a wanna-dom.

if you think it's a one-sided relationship and you're the only one that has needs and deserves to be happy...youuuuu might be a wanna-dom.

if you want to spend months in emails without a phonecall...youuuuu might be a wanna-dom.

if you think that all subs and slaves desire constant beatings and humiliation/degradation to remember their place?youuuuu might be a wanna-dom.

If the first/only pic on your profile is of your tallywhacker, and you REALLY think that gets you chicks...youuuuu might be a wanna-dom.

if your hair is a mess, your? face unshaven and a there is a dirty pile of clothes in your pics, yet you claim to be in control of your life and ready and able to control mine...youuuu might be a wanna-dom.

if? you believe that slaves and submissives are sub-human and forget they are just as human as you are...youuuuuuu might be a wanna-dom.


....more to follow....hahahaha
nonononononononoNO cages!

unless you can deal with the emotional crap behind it, let that sleeping dog lie.

and while we're on the subject of quirks..what's with all the males wanting a sub/slave that "knows they're worthless"? what happened to them, psychologically speaking, that they would view another human being as having no worth?

as for the women, what's going on in their heads?

i've heard the explanation that it all rests in her knowing her worth depends solely on him...but what if?

what if they separate? what if he dies?? if her worth is so entwined with his presence...how does she ever get herself back and move on?

i don't understand how one human could do this to another, knowing they will leave the other debilitated should they ever separate...or...is this what is behind it? is he so insecure that he has to bind her to him in such a fashion as to possibly cause her damage in the long run?

sometimes i think people just do not THINK about the big picture..

i just don't get it.
i think Collarme has become the dumping ground for every pathetic, misogynistic, uncouth, GROSSLY overweight and unhygienic man to call themselves a dominant... and because of their new status thinks they can get laid...WTF. ::shakes my head:: it is as if they think because they are now a *dominant* man that entitles them to a slave or sub, or that slaves and subs are just so desperate to serve they'll take what they can scrape from the bottom of the barrel...and God forbid you shoot them down...YOU have the issues...get real...if you were a loser in the nilla world, you're still a loser here...
ok...so i KNOW the girls will kick me out of the club for this, but.....

i think we should round up all the vibrators, load them on a barge and sink them with the Titanic.

yes, girls, that means your hibachis or hitachis or hyundais...whatever they're called...oh, yeah...and the sybians, too.
they're BASURA.::nodnodnod:
if you're going to write me, tell me i am *beautiful* and then state that you want me, that you want to own me...you've already lost my attention.

truth be told, i sit behind my monitor snickering and rolling my eyes at your ridiculousness.

i've heard it all before...liking my looks doesn't *move* me...it doesn't make me weak in the knees to be desired and it certainly doesn't make me soft between the ears.

been there, done that, tossed the t-shirt.

wanna puff my ego? read my writings. see the woman inside and not the *pretty* package on the outside. noting my looks before noting the woman behind them merely irritates me.

unless you're ready to own a human being and not a *thing*..don't waste your time.
------- holy friggin hell people...if a slave has to provide her own income to a house, her own insurance and then contribute to the keeping up of said house, WTH does she need a Master for? where is His responsibility to her and for her? and when would she ever have time to serve??how can one be expected to "let go and let Master" if their life is tied up serving other Masters? if their focus is split between two worlds? -- ie: the boss at work, the disgusting grind of capitalism.

"No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth."

... accuse me of being a gold digger if you'd like, truth be told, i'd live in a dirt floor shack in the middle of the congo, scrubbing our clothes on a rock in a stream, *stuff* doesn't mean a whole lot to me...the real gold digger here is the Master who would sacrifice his slaves focus for a few extra bucks in the budget (and if you?need that extra money, then you do not?need a slave, anymore than you need to acquire a pet you cannot either house or feed, unless you're the type to send fido off to work everyday)...i'll say it again, in caps this time...

SLAVES AND SUBS ARE NOT ENDLESS WELLS OF LOVE, SERVICE, ENERGY?AND DEVOTION...IF YOU DO NOT REPLENISH THEM, THEY RUN DRY, AND YOU'RE LEFT WITH AN EMPTY SHELL OF WHAT THEY COULD HAVE BEEN.
my first Daddy...he was the best.? He taught me so much. one day he asked me..."who owns your submission?"...of course, i answered, "you do."....i was immediately given *the look* as he grabbed my chin to raise my eyes to meet his, then?he snapped at me, "NO! WRONG!"...i was crushed in that moment...i asked him then, "if not you, who?"...he told me, "YOU own your submission, even after you have given it to another for His pleasure, it is YOURS..it's up to YOU to protect it and make sure it isn't misused."

it was probably the best advice i have ever had. thank you, Saul, Sir.
for gawd's sakes people, dictionary.com is a GREAT thing...

i see this a lot..."worship"

now, don't get me wrong, i am i NO way a religious person. but, i am very spiritual. i believe firmly in karma. i believe *God* is the collective conscious. the energy that flows through everything, that connects all things. i don't worship said energy, but i have a healthy respect for it, admiration for it's divine beauty, and an understanding of how i think things work. this energy is perfect, yet i do not worship it. i really do not think i could worship another human being. we're faulty..we make mistakes, sometimes in a huge way. to put another human being on that pedestal, the pressure that might put them under to strive for perfection, something that we as humans are incapable of--isn't fair, or right, or just. at some point they will fall from said pedestal..isn't it better to have a healthy respect and loving admiration for the Man i submit to, knowing he is a man...one that can never fall from grace, because he is seen for the fragile human he is...that we all are..yet, loved and adored in spite of those flaws? i will love and adore Him..but to worship Him would be our downfall.
if all you seek is a sex slave, click the little arrow and pass me by...i refuse to have my slavery shoved into a box and stunted...i need full slavery, not sex slavery. and...shame on you for wanting to have all the fun without any of the responsibility. lalalalala
oooooooo, my first time actually being on CM for new years eve...all the folks with no profiles looking to hook up ....::eyeroll::

lack of ethics.
lack of honor.
lack of loyalty.
it teems here..."i am looking for the right married sub.."....um, DUDE, she is married, nothing about her fucking you is right...nothing. ~~~shakes my head~~~?
i must be completely thick between the ears, i just do not get it...i see profiles with.."i love the control" ..but only in the sexual sense, right? what ever happened to the time in between, let's face it, you cannot screw 24hrs a day...for me, this is the way i express my love for my Man..the control cannot just be shut off because the orgasms (or lack of them) have been had...it has to extend beyond the bedroom and into life...
i wish there were definitive explanations of the terms Top, Dominant, and Master.

it irks me to no end to see a man call himself a Dominant when he is only dominant in the bedroom...it irks me to read he wants only play time and considers this fuck buddy situation to be a meaningful relationship.

~~shakes my head~~
addendum....some people desire more than sex slavery, some people want it all.
-------------

a conversation between my landlord and me:
him: hey, snip, how's it going?
me: pretty good, joe, my furnace is making a horrid noise.
him: well, you're pretty good at that stuff, just go check it out.
~~in my head i'm saying, "i know i am, why do you think i am mentioning it"~~
me: alrighty, joe...
him: and take out the filter, toss it in the shower and clean it.
~~in my head i'm saying, "cheap bastage, they're like $5 at home depot"~~
:::shakes my head:::
at what point do you stop and say, "maybe my want is just that and the Universe has other plans for me?"

how many synchronicities have to occur before you say enough is enough, i hear you Universe, loud and clear?

when and, better yet, how do you come to such an acceptance?
it is not only my right, but my responsibility, to make sure i am making an educated, clear choice of whom i relinquish my submission to. this means it is my responsibility to check out said person to all lengths to make sure i am not getting myself into a bad situation or a situation that is unrealistic. as an unowned submissive, i have no owner to do this for me, therefore the responsibility falls solely on my shoulders. this is an across the board belief. if the Dominant in this case does not want to answer my queries, or prove himself, ie: phone calls, full name, etc..(which it is my belief that it is not unreasonable to ask these things given the world we live in)... then there should be no reasonable expectation on his part that i relinquish any control to him. this is a two way street. just as i have to earn his domination and trust, he needs to earn my submission and trust. it's not ok for me to make an uneducated decision about you and your ability/intention/honesty without any actions that show that you are honorable. i shouldn't just believe what you say without any reality based reasoning for doing so. no slave/sub worth her salt is going to submit to a man who chooses to remain secretive. who chooses not to set her mind at ease and make her safe, which IMHO, is exactly what an Owner's responsibility is. subs ?
and slaves are not endless wells of devotion, just like flowers need rain, subs and slaves need to be replenished by the people they submit to. otherwise, eventually, they get to the bottom of an empty pot and find themselves with a shell of a submissive who has nothing to give.

just food for thought.

they call this a power exchange for a reason, it is an exchange of trust, of honor, of loyalty, of information, of everything. how can you foster any kind of true intimacy if you hold her at arms length? how can you elicit her deepening submission if she has fears? and if you ?
are unwilling to share those things, how can you ever reasonably expect to find what you seek? ?
i dream of a better tomorrow where chickens can cross the road and not have their motives? questioned.
for anyone who received weird emails from me....it wasn't me...apparently my roommates boyfriend thought it would be cool to snoop in my computer and log onto CM and harass women from my screen name...i apologize for the jerk.
i really think bartering should become fashionable again.

i am on disability, so my income is fixed, and *just* enough to cover expenses.? anything extra, haha. i end up doing a lot of bartering with folks..and for the most part, they're kinda stupefied when i come at them with stuff.

i have a few talents. i have some skills. there isn't much i can't MacGuyver and make work.

"so, you have an air conditioner..hmmm? didn't you say you needed your sink fixed? let's trade."

i traded an astrology reading for my nose piercing. lalala

another time, i repaired the drain on my friend's central a/c and got two promo posters from the premiere episode of miami ink..in lieu of dineros. hehe

in this economy...i'd think bartering would be all the rage. silly people.
alrighty, so, i have been thinking about it..

i see many M/D's say they would require their slave/sub to learn something, formally..if granted the choice of what i'd like to learn...

First official press release for connectedQ.com:

For immediate release:

 

well, Q'sters, it's friday the thirteenth.

what better day to issue an official welcome to our new members and issue our first press release in one fell swoop. haha. honestly, though, it's quite indicative of our whole philosophy here at Q. keeping things simple, practical, and logical, with a dash of spiritualism. where everyone gets a voice, and their voice gets heard. a cooperative effort between everyone for common goals.

speaking of philosophies, i thought i'd talk a little about ours.

ConnectedQ's vision and mission is to empower the GLBTQ community--spiritually, emotionally, socially, politically, and economically. it's the first of it's kind to encompass social networking AND e-commerce. whatever you need, we hope there's a place for our members to find it, and in doing so, you support someone within our community. you don't need to be gay to join, just gay friendly! everyone knows someone who is gay. friend, cousin, sister, son. it's time we stopped pretending we don't exist and unite to become a force to be reckoned with. in all the aspects of our lives.

as one of our members so eloquently described in her assessment of our site: "the internet's first global GLBTQ social networking/e-commerce site has launched! bring your politics, businesses, opinions, personalities, support and most of all, love. emoji "

thanks *you*, you know who you are.

we want to support forums whose aim is not debates, but solutions. there's room enough in everything for everyone to be content. we are still in our beta version, but we have huge dreams! one of which is to develop real-time vote tabulation when it comes to major decisions of our direction as a community. this community has been splintered for far too long. we have all, whatever our gender identification, been discriminated against because of who we are, whether it's gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, or other orientation.  

we welcome ALL of you. in one forum. to unite into one solid being. everyone having a place and a purpose. that's what it's about. networking. member #12 may know someone who knows someone who can fix an unexpected bug somewhere. this philosophy can be applied to any situation. sometimes it may take a little work and patience, but it gets done. and as people become as passionate about our dream as we are, the universe will help us sustain.

which brings us to the announcement that we will be launching a donation page on december 31, 2009. it will be unique in that it will only allow a $1/day maximum donation per member. one dollar at a time. six degrees of seperation. which, off-handedly addresses another of our visions: to have constantly updated accessibility to our costs and income, offering votes on certain issues. ie: donations and endorsements: spiritual, emotional/mental, social, political, and economical, and what will be donated and/or endorsed, based on what products/services/organizations/businesses get the *Q* of approval by popular vote among our membership.

big dreams, i know, but we can do this!

you may have noticed we changed our skin a bit. next to our logo we have added a *Movement Of The Day*, we are also hoping to soon have a *Documentary Of The Day* that corresponds to each movement. again we ask for contributions, if you submit it in full, with links to the documentary, we will do our best to get it on the schedule asap.

we say a humble thank you to all that have given their support with their membership. we ask all of our members to be patient with us. get passionate with us. tell everyone you know who might fit right in to come give us a visit. if there's an idea, talent or passion you have and you want to contribute, write to us, if you think you have a solution, write to us. once a day, run the link on your feeds. it takes just a few seconds to share a site on a feed. we do it all the time in games and other applications. together, grass roots, we can make this happen, the same way we would if we could have an endless 'crew' memberships in game apps, lol. we have managed to bring in twenty-seven members in three days. not bad for a 'kid', his mom, his sister, their family and their friends.

to everyone who has jumped on the bandwagon, thank you...

sincerely,

the mad scientists, artistic dreamers, spiritual sages, emotional empaths, social butterflies, economic realists and political enthusiasts hiding behind the curtain ::winks::

my son has launched his new site, the ONLY LGBTQ social networking/e-commerce site on the web!!!
Mission: To establish a venue digital or otherwise that is dedicated to the spiritual, emotional, social, political and economic empowerment of the LTGBQ community. come check us out! let's make this happen!

connectedQ.com
wow, really great race at talladega today..watch that kid joey logano..he is going to come out and shine in the next couple of years...
ok, i see this over and over again in profiles.."you will never ever wear panties"
um, guys, women have these things called menstrual cycles, we need panties for one week a month, some of us can't get by with a mere tampon...unless you want to pay the cleaning bills or replacement price of items ruined with blood stains, give her her panties back....
Pot-smoking patients or their sanctioned suppliers should not be targeted for federal prosecution in states that allow medical marijuana, prosecutors were told Monday in a new policy memo issued by the Justice Department.

about dang time.
::shakes my head::

am i the only one that has noticed that many of the *Doms* that whine about not finding anyone are the same ones that are a) GROSSLY obese (well over 350lbs), b) unkempt, ie: greasy hair, uncombed hair, a 5 o'clock shadow, dirty clothes, or c) have a HUGE pile of dirty laundry in the background??? we have but ONE chance to make a first impression, shouldn't we all present ourselves as best we can?
ok, just a word of wisdom...if you read someone's profile, and it appears serious, don't tell them in the FIRST correspondence that you want to own them..it makes you look desperate or, at the very least...shallow. on another note, for those of you wanting a play partner and stating it *may* turn into 24/7...that's akin to picking up someone in a bar and thinking it'll lead to marriage...c'mon people, GET REAL!
my personal top sexiest male celebrities of all-time:

1) Cary Grant

2) Elvis...the Voice, the sensuality, the Pelvis, c'mon... and a bootie chin.

3) Jeff Goldblum...have you watched that man swagger? he can FUCK, and the brooding is hot.

4) Chris "Ludacris" Bridges...he's a lyrical genius and...he makes freak noises, i hear them..heh.

5) William Peterson...bowlegs, carriage, mischievous eyes. um, bootie chin, sensing a theme? LOL

6) Kurt Russell...this crush started when i was eight...don't ask, haha. yet another bootie chin.

7) Terrence Howard...he is yummy, those eyes, the passion...and when i saw him play a pimp...sans the hooking, he was hot..haha.
i should have been born with a warning label that reads:

handle with extreme care. contents packaged under high pressured emotional, psychological, and intellectual intensity.
...this entry dedicated to Dr. Gary...

relatively speaking, i have been on this planet a very short time...but in that short time, i have experienced far too much, at far too an intense level...couple that with the fact that "methinks, i *think* too much"...i have come to many, many conclusions...about The Universe, about me, about others...here are some of those thoughts and beliefs...i won't claim any of this as an epiphany i just came to without help, Dr. Gary, would...with his odd, deceptively innocent, basset hound looks and his quirky ways...take his deadpan accurate, softly spoken, yet cast-iron skillet hard mode of calling a spade a spade, and use his tools on me...he'd sneak up on me, like an Apache...and take his high-top, designer gym shoe directly to my head...hard enough to rattle my teeth...and he'd set me to rights, then, point me in the right direction...thank you, Universe...thank you, Dr. Gary...both of you were *right on time*...

i used to have not just a chip, but the Prudential rock, sitting on my shoulder...i had NO clue how damn heavy that sucker was..whining again to Dr. Gary, my feelings...raw and rancid, curdling in my throat... about how horrible my life was and had been...about how other people were responsible for my misery...about how the Universe *owed* me better than what i got...about how life just wasn't fair...about how my mom sucked...about how my dad didn't suck, but my mom fucked that up...about how my stepdad sometimes sucked and sometimes didn't...who kept my world an uproar...how, in my rage at it all, i felt like the world could *go fuck itself*, and so could everyone in it, gawddammit!
::blahblahblah::...

Dr. Gary leaned forward, placed his elbows on his knees, rubbed his hands together in his usual gesturing, looked at his feet...after a few seconds, he raised his peach fuzz covered head and looked at me with those big, cow eyes of his, and...in the midst of my whiny, tiresome, oft-repeated, diatribe...and said to me...

"have you ever just stopped...and looked at your mother like she was a person you met on the street? without the expectations of perfection...
because we all know, moms are supposed to be perfect...they don't have wounds from their experiences, they don't have insecurities, they don't shut down and stay shut down longer than they should... television lied! she was supposed to be just like laura petrie! june cleaver!

yeah, right...did you ever consider that maybe she loved you as best she could...given her scars...there must have been times when she did make you smile, or laugh...it couldn't have all been bad...why can't you forgive her, accept her for who she was...that she loved you the best she knew how...that she gave all she *could* give...however lower than YOUR expectations of a mom her actions were...can you learn to appreciate the good things about her, and forgive the rest? wouldn't you want to be forgiven? you're a mother, are you perfect?"

at bug-splat speed, i hit the wall.

as i oozed downward, the full gravity of his words sinking in...
something deep inside of me began changing...my core, forever altered...
with a little work, i began to view her...and everyone else i have ever known...with new eyes...eyes that could see worth, even when it isn't immediately apparent...that all things happen because they are supposed to...we all have lessons to learn...each of our souls requiring a different set of experiences...from the bible-thumping christian to the hard-core druggie.....from the seemingly perfect soccer mom to the depraved sociopath, whose mommy bond was broken...from the jet set socialite to the homeless man off the expressway ramp, holding a sign that says, "will work for food"...all of us are fucked in the head in some way...and if i stood any chance at all of ever having acceptance, love, understanding, patience, tolerance and forgiveness...i had to damn well learn that i needed to be in a place where i was capable of giving those things...to others as well as to myself...

i have developed some pretty strong beliefs since then...

i believe we are the energy we radiate...what we attract depends solely on what we emit..

i believe vengeance is unnecessary, what we do unto others will be done unto us...times three.

i believe my only entitlement is the pursuit of happiness...everything else i receive from life, i should be ready and able to deserve, because i've earned it, not because i think it is owed to me, if only because i am alive...

i believe in synchronicity, not coincidence...Wisdom and Direction whisper to us, we just have to be alert and quiet enough to hear it...
i believe everyone deserves a chance...some deserve 12 chances...some deserve 12 chances cubed...regret can be a bitter pill...if i can forgive them, maybe they can forgive me...
i believe in the power of *ghetto networking*::laughs::
i believe if i need a miracle, i need to be a miracle for someone else...miracles don't always come with the magnitude of moses parting the red sea...sometimes a miracle is a hand to hold and a kind word, exactly when you need them most...sometimes it's being freed from *prison* (whatever that prison may be) when you're falsely accused...sometimes it's a few hot meals and a safe place to lay your head...if i have it to give, i will and should...i may need a miracle one day, too.
i believe *God* IS the collective conscious...the energy of every living thing connected to the energy of every other living thing...our actions rippling out...like tiny waves of water after tossing in a stone...affecting everything in it's outward-growing path...

1) honor *God*...whoever *God* is to you.

2) honor yourself, if you don't you won't be honored by others.

3) honor others, if you don't, you can't expect them to return that honor.

it works for me.
so, i am writing again....

here's the newest piece.


haunted houses



i come across many people in this life...and for some, they feel about me the way they feel about haunted houses...creeped out, scared by the chill that courses through them when they think about them, yet thrilled, and maybe even a little fascinated ... but meant only to be experienced in sporadic doses...

those eerie, intricately carved gargoyles, woven into the old, worn, stone facade...staring down at them with their maniacal grins... forever mistaken for evil, when really they are only meant as protection...those weathered, shuttered, randomly broken windows that allude to bygone days of glory and beauty and grace...the overgrown flora that masks much of it's many repaired cracks and natural imperfections...it's very presence wielding a disconcertingly soothing effect in it's solidity and consistency, despite it's seemingly neglected appearance...drawing their attention and thoughts time and again like a moth to a flame, yet repelling them just the same...and no matter how many times they pass this unchanging house, they're compelled to stop, even if it's just for a second or two...and gaze at the disturbing oddity before them and wonder to themselves...what kinds of secrets do those walls keep?...how badly would they terrify, yet exhilarate?...what might it be like to wander freely inside?...would they feel comforted and safe by the strong, oak banisters they grasp, white-knuckled, as they ascend the now creaky, but once grand, staircase it inevitably possesses?...would they still be able to feel the velvety, soft richness in the remnants of water damaged wallpaper as they slowly trace their fingertips lightly across it's barely recognizable pattern?...what priceless and long forgotten antiques hide beneath those originally pristine, white covers, now gray with age?...what might they see in the eyes of the painted portraits of former residents that still hang, dusty and askew, on it's cracked, plastered walls?...would it make them feel alive, if only momentarily?...

only in moments, of course, because no one can really be expected to *live* in a haunted house, can they?...

the bogeyman isn't real, everyone knows that...

BUT..."what if?"

what if he really does exist?...

what if he really does reside, ever lurking, in those deeply shadowed interiors?...

he might just trap them inside...

or worse...

he might just steal their soul if they linger too long...

gripped in fear, their trance finally broken by the realization of their pounding pulse and moistened palms...spurring their feet into a near run, but not before a final glimpse over their shoulder at the house that they will inevitably return to again and again, yet never enter...

i know this is cliche`...but whatever...
some song lyrics...

If you open your mind for me

You won't rely on open eyes to see


The walls you built within

Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin

Living twice at once you learn

You're safe from the pain in the dream domain

A soul set free to fly

A round trip journey in your head

Master of illusion, can you realize

Your dream's alive, you can be the Guide but...


I- will be watching over you


I- am gonna help to see it through

I- will protect you in the night

I- am smiling next to you in Silent Lucidity
alrighty.....for those of you who fail to read a profile, or understand said profile, i do NOT seek a playmate, or scenes, or anything remotely resembling a friends with benefits situation...i am also NOT SEEKING A SUBMISSIVE MAN OR A DOMINANT WOMAN.

thanks.
ok....i KNOW this is going to sound shallow...but grossly obese men do NOT turn me on....neither do men whose age exceeds that of my father (he's 57, btw), neither do men who want to know my every sexual proclivity in the first conversation....i want chemistry! i want someone who *gets me*...someone i *get*....ethics, stability, consistency, sexual attraction, mental stimulation (and not just sexual)...mean what you say, say what you mean, i do...it's a lot to ask, but i come to the table offering much...understand that i am still waters...and i run very, very deep...
"The best leader isn't the biggest or the strongest. The best leader is the one that cares the most."

"Barnyard" the movie...
i recently ended a relationship with someone r/l...we were friends for a couple of years and i thought i knew what i was getting into...even when folks are *close up and personal* they can fool you....
just a lil crack i tried at poetry...


bittered honey...


weeping from unwanted walls


designed of fog and spun glass



founded on ignited timbers



deeply enkindled and thick with ash




dewy mist...



collecting in swollen droplets



drizzling down in syrupy chaos



cinders juxtapose with tears



creating a mourning in sackcloth




sizzling embers...



vainly hissing in unheard protest



their radiant illumination flickering



quagmired in liquid agony



as tragic vapors bravely billow skyward

ok, if you cannot take the time to read a profile and preference list, please do not bother me with the question "what do you enjoy in bdsm?"...cuz, i already answered that.
i just have to share my blessings with all of you. for a very long time now i have been praying for things to come into my life....i had begun to get very discouraged, but the Universe in it's wisdom knows when we are ready for things and apparently i wasn't ready....until a couple of weeks ago. it seems that everything i have been waiting for has been delivered to me in the most extraordinary and magnificent way. i have a wonderful home, a fantastic roommate, friends that truly love me, and a man worthy of being adored forever. and if that wasn't enough i have the most wonderful daughter in the world, she makes me feel awesome every single day. i am humbled, grateful and blessed. thank you, Universe.
as you can probably tell from the pics i have uploaded, my hair has been cut...significantly.
i made an 11 1/2" donation to locks of love. new pics will be available soon!
okely dokely folks, here's the story:
i've been friends with a man for quite a while. i noticed a dominant streak in Him well over a year and a half ago. i sat back. i observed. i became His friend. recently, He expressed that He'd like to be in a relationship with me. well, i HAD to let the cat out of the bag. tell Him the whole kit and caboodle. i blew His mind, of course, but i also piqued His interest. who would have thought i'd find my mate in my day to day vanilla life? not that i am complaining, He is everything i have been seeking, right down to a wicked lil kinky streak. yay me!
wooohoooo!!
i'm baaaaaack!
please understand i am on a fixed income and do not have such niceties as a home computer, cable tv, or even a phone.
a phone may be something i can afford into my budget soon, but as for right now, it isn't possible.
contrary to popular belief, hanging and modeling inatimate objects from your hard-on is NOT sexy.
it's amazing when my feelings get involved and i want more than my next breath to be exactly what He wants me to be.
and the fear of not being able to be exactly that, overwhelms me.
if there were ever a day when i felt completely and totally inadequate...today would be it
.
"If you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, i shall be unique in all the world."
~~~The Little Prince by Antoine de St Exupery~~~
kinda sums everything up right nice like, don't you think?
you know...i am one very blessed woman. i have the two most amazing kids on the face of the planet.
smart.
sweet.
honest.
giving.
and on those days when i feel the worst, one of them always comes along with the sweetest, most benign gesture that makes my day.
for instance, my daughter sent me a text message today, song lyrics...she heard this song and it reminded her of me...so she just sent them...her way of saying, "i'm thinking about you, mom".
then my son, this evening...sends me an IM..."hi, mommy"...he is nineteen and still calls me mommy, it melts my heart...
thank you Universe....my kids are the best.
"You are free before the sun of day,
and free before the stars of night;
And you are free when there is no sun and no moon and no star.
You are even free when you close your eyes upon all there is.
But you are a slave to him whom you love because you love him,
and a slave to him who loves you because he loves you."

Kahlil Gibran
ok, i need to preface this entry with a note...~~no, we are not a matched set, no we don't come as a package deal, and if you approach me with any questions to the effect, you'll be promptly ignored~~
last night my daughter called me crying...once again her boyfriend had her hysterical...his bullying of her pushing her to the point of breaking. i am pretty perceptive and know things about my kids that they'd never imagined...i knew my son was gay when he was three, and i know my daughter is a submissive...not that i discuss her sexual proclivities with her regularly, but i know her personality, and i see her needs. so, i've been watching this dance between them for some time now...seeing them struggle, he is a dominant, she a submissive...neither of them realizing what they are, both feeling it on some level, and having no name to put to it...well, last night i had enough. i decided to let the cat out of the bag, i could no longer watch my child bleed. she begged me, "mom, no, you'll just cause me drama."...i knew i had to handle this with kidgloves, so, i did. i called her boyfriend and i told him..."you're a dominant, she is a submissive, but dude, you're doing it all wrong. she is looking to be led, not dragged along. she is looking for the ONE place in this whole world where she is absolutely safe, and you're bullying of her is not providing that, you're only perpetuating the power struggle. forcing her to rebel, you want what you want, so you need to change tactics and thinking processes, and you need a mentor."
"you're 100% right kim, 100%. but what do i need to do?"
"dude, first you need to learn to control yourself, learn to provide for her what she needs and you'll get exactly what you need. second, forget the visuals you've seen on the internet, they'll only give you the wrong ideas. third, get a book called *the loving dominant* and you two sit down and read it aloud to each other, have a discussion after each chapter (thanks DT, i took this idea from you)...lastly, when she comes into the house from her clear-her-head walk, pick her up, carry her to the couch, put her in your lap, wrap your arms around her and let her cry the ocean she so desperately needs to, start providing her safe space, and there's no place you can't lead her. stop demanding her submission and learn to illicit her surrender."
i opened the door for them, offered my experience and wisdom, offered a safe place for her to discuss who she is with me, told them i'll point them in the right direction for education, and i've approached a trusted friend to be his mentor...she called this morning and asked me what i had said to him and i told her just what i wrote here. she said he told her this was the first time he has ever really listened to anyone. she said he was the sweetest he has ever been. she said she got what she needed. keep your fingers crossed, folks, i am. 
to the person who asked me to *cease and desist* writing.
i wasn't *lecturing*, i was trying to be supportive, give an uplifting word... you aren't the only one with life experience. you talk about projecting, look at yourself, you definitely projected your rage and frustration with the internet upon me, undeservedly. and as the old song goes....paranoia will destroy ya.
it has been pouring down rain all day...and i am feeling *heady*...i've gone into *think* mode...i am so tired of being complicated...most days i feel like a walking paradox...i am open-minded and can accept most anything...i may not always understand everything, but i will try...but at the same time i am so damn picky i make myself sick...and it isn't like i expect more from other people than what i am willing to give...therein lies the problem...i expect so friggin much from myself...sometimes, i think my standards for my behavior are higher than anyone else could ever ask of me...i am my own worst critic...and i punish myself more than anyone else ever has or ever will...things are black and white to me...i either like something...or don't like it...either i like you and can get used to any eccentricity you may have and enjoy and appreciate you for it...or i can't stand you....just get away from me....i analyze the hell out of everything...especially myself...and you...if you let me get close enough...there is something about knowing every nuance of a person that is an incredible headrush...and i guess i am one of those people...that if there isn't any mind for me to investigate...or you refuse to let me get close...i cannot feel intimately close to you...*safe*...and it doesn't matter if it is a friend...a family member...a lover...if it isn't deep and intimate on some level...if i can't be me...say what i feel...ask for what i need...let you inside MY head...there is always going to be a wall...i am not an easy nut to crack...and i can't easily be read...i keep my deepest wants, needs and feelings very close to heart...still waters run deep....someone told me once...that i was just way too intense...that it overwhelms people and they run like hell...but that' s just me....and i don't know how to be any other way....and do i really want to? to live an existence on a level i consider *shallow*? no...i don't....do i ache to meet my match? God, yes! someone as intense...as strong...whose character is ethical...whose heart is accepting...someone who loves me but doesn't let me get away with shit...i AM a picky bitch...but i am also a persistent bitch....and i KNOW *he* is out there....aching for someone like me as badly as i am aching for someone like him...
ok, i know i am opinionated.
but i am not snobby about it.
i can agree to disagree.
i really am a nice person.
::snickers:: i really have to laugh at all the over-inflated egomanaical males (note i typed males not men) who think a sub/slave is going to *apply*...this isn't a job, fellas...this is an undertaking of the heart...whether it be with love or with committment.
thank gawd for hours and hours of "horny mormon" episodes on HBO OnDemand when one is in need of some escapism...
over and over i see it...
"no limits"
you have got to be kidding.
could you respect or rely on the mental stability of a woman who'd serve up her children to you as "gifts"...
could you trust and admire a woman who would venture into the vulnerable psyche of a minor...
could you depend on the honor of a woman who'd have sexual relations with her family members...
could you depend on the cleanliness of a woman who'd allow you to defecate upon her...
these aren't merely limits in my book, they are boundaries no psychologically balanced human ever crosses.
it has haunted me the better part of my life. the dream. i remember when it first began, i was still a little girl playing with dolls.

it begins. i am asleep in my bed. he enters through the window. before i know what is happening to me, i am wrapped tightly in my blanket. a hand clamped tightly down over my mouth. he speaks."shhh, don't say a word." i am placed in a vehicle, and driven for hours.

i awaken, still within my dream. i am in the most luscious and feminine room i have ever seen. a locked room. i have been captured and i have no idea why.

he enters. he is not much more than a blur, but i can *feel* his dark features. and his voice. low, sensual, soothing. "i have been watching you for a long time now. planning. i am going to teach you everything. how to walk. how to talk. how to dress. educate you. teach you the best way to make and keep your body beautiful. i will turn you into my perfect little girl." and as quickly as he arrived, he was gone. there i stood, left to ponder my situation, but knowing i would comply.

awake. at first, the dream was so scary to me. but, as years went by, it became a welcome visitor. i began to understand. there, i was safe, i was protected, i was wanted, i was whole.

the dream doesn't come to me anymore. i sure miss it.....
another random thought...
why, whenever i spell the word *friend* i hear Mr. Rogers singing..
f-r-i-e-n-d special, you are my friend...
 
methinks i have had far too much therapy, by far too good a therapist.
sometimes i wish i were as blissfully confused as the majority of the world.
things might be easier.
hooray for OnDemand!!....one of my fav books is now a movie...The Celestine Prophecy.
an excerpt from a conversation with my closest, dearest friend...
.
eire (5:58:16 PM): no, actually. i had to call the mommy show off..
Snippette (5:57:53 PM): rutroh...why?
eire (5:58:32 PM): this is the anniversary of THOSE days.
Snippette (5:58:09 PM): nuff said.
eire (5:58:46 PM): total wreck.
eire (5:58:48 PM): yea.
Snippette (5:58:19 PM): i bet
eire (5:58:59 PM): i slept until 4pm ..
Snippette (5:59:30 PM): yikes, i am sorry baby
eire (6:00:53 PM): thank you. it's not your fault.
eire (6:01:15 PM): it's also the anniversary of one of the many times you've been totally completely fucking awesome too.
Snippette (6:01:30 PM): aww, shucks, just try to be the best friend i can
eire (6:02:15 PM): you were amazing, kimmie. i will never forget that. ever.
eire (6:02:31 PM): i might have it put on your epitaph . lol. in 100 years.
Snippette (6:02:16 PM): ::crying:: stoppit
eire (6:05:48 PM): : : hands her a hankie : : there's no crying in baseball.
Snippette (6:05:28 PM): awww, i love you hunny.
in case you were wondering...
yes, all of the random thoughts and mad ramblings you find here are woven in my mind...
anything borrowed is clearly acknowledged...

Obtaining the submission of a vulnerable, unsure woman is easy.
Obtaining the surrender of a self-reliant, self-aware woman is divine.

we are flip sides of a coin. neither able to actualize their desires without the other.
we are societal vanilla and decadent kink.
we are absolute stability and utter chaos.
we are uproarious laughter and soulful tears.
we are protective tenderness and wicked sadism.
we are innocently carefree and deadly serious.
we are intricately interwoven and lovingly detached.
we are insatiably greedy and selflessly magnanimous.
we are rose-colored glass fantasy and x-ray vision reality.
we are sun and moon.
we are equal and unequal.
we are Owner and pet.
we are Daddy and little one.
Together, we are all of this and more...
Together, we are Master and slave.

ok, here's a lil story...kinda shows in a nutshell what my personality is like..
i went with my injured cousin, who i've been staying with and helping, to the grocery store...so first off, because she is on crutches, she decides to get one of those lil motorized carts (she had a car accident, which makes this point a lil ironic)...and she is zipping around at 2mph...and i am teasing her the whole way, trying to use humor to overcome the anxiety i feel about being out...
"watch out, crash!"...
"get a head start, speedy, so you can keep up!"
and there we were, in the produce section, and i am looking for cilantro, because i have my cousin spoiled and she wants guacamole. i find the fresh parsley i need for dinner tommorow, but no cilantro.
so, i start looking around for a produce worker. i don't want to walk off on my cousin, because she is just going to try to follow me with this slow-as-hell cart...i finally spot someone, and for the aforementioned reason, i call out, with a huge smile on my face and as much charm as i can muster...
"hey, veggie guy?"
my cousin immediately bursts out laughing, as does the older woman standing next to us inspecting the spinach...
"hey, veggie guy?" ...i call out again, this time he hears me and looks my way...i wave..
"yeah, veggie guy, do you have any more cilantro?" i purr sweetly.
he walks over, all the while chuckling and just a tad shade pink, and says... "just a minute, i'll go look in back."
so, cuzzo and i are standing there and she looks at me and says...
"i can't believe you did that, calling out 'veggie guy'. not only did he come over here, but, the dude was laughing, too!"
a couple of minutes goes by and here comes veggie guy...no cilantro...bumming at this point because she really wants this guacamole, i look at veggie guy and i ask...
"can i get these scraps from the cilantro that used to be here, just price it for me?"
veggie guy, still half-smiling says...
"just stick it in with the parsley, i won't tell."
we'll all be giggling about this for a bit...

okely dokely, just a lil FYI before you go a-typin me that note...
no, i am not a bored housewife. i am not a wife at all. and only boring people get bored.
no, i didn't just hit my sexual prime and decide to search for some kink. i have 14yrs in and around this world of D/s, i am fully aware of what it is about and what it entails, likes, dislikes, etc.
How do you catch a unique lil slave princess?
You neek up on her..

"When life gives you lemons, grin impishly like an eight year old, load them in a slingshot, and send them back!!"

ok, this is an addendum to my limits...
i've added one.
no frying bacon naked.

ok, this post is probably going to get me lynched..but here goes...
"training".....the idea is as inane to me as it is foriegn. if you feel you need to "train" your sub/slave, i am sorry to tell you, she/he just isn't that into you...if she/he were, she would comprehend and note that preference of yours the FIRST time...if it takes you eight times to get her/him to do or not do something then she/he really doesn't respect you or your wants/needs ...it shouldn't take repetition for her/him to do what you like, just the desire to please you. sometimes your likes and dislikes can be expressed subtly with an escaped moan, or a surprised movement...if she/he truly desires to please you, she/he will be attuned to even these subtle nuances...right from the beginning. if she/he isn't, then she/he is either pretending  being submissive or just plain stupid.

that's my story, and i am sticking to it.
i have spread my dreams under your feet; tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

this is for all the women new to this life and wish to learn...
a word of advice...
find a fellow submissive for mentoring...
someone experienced.
someone understanding.
someone with an intact sense of worth and esteem.
and above all else, BE CAREFUL!
it's a jungle out there.

::sighs::
why is it all the wonderful men have more limits than i do....and the ones with as few limits as i have are all buttheads?
and they wonder why i am still single.
ok, i don't need to you to show me who or what i am, i don't need your help to discover my inner slut, i've met her and she rocks, i also don't need you to push my limits, i have but 3, and they are absolutely immovable, i don't need to be molded, just tell me what you like, i have ears that hear well and a memory that retains information, i don't need you to be my therapist, i don't need you to convince me i have worth, or to give me self-esteem, i am fully and wholly intact--imagine that, a slave that doesn't need fixing...with that said...can you accept me?
gentlemen, gentlemen...
contrary to popular belief..
speedos are NOT sexy.
omgomgomg, i read some of the profiles by so-called Dominants---what they want, how they want to treat their girl...
and i think to myself---if this guy owned a Rolls Royce he'd probably go beat on it with a hammer, everyday ::shrug::
heh, a very wise Dominant friend of mine once said...welcome to my fungeon, no, not a dungeon, who wants to play in something that starts with DUNG...........and i laughed and laughed, but he is right. thanks J, you rawk.
just another idle musing...excerpted from what goes through my mind at any given moment...
Secret underwear.
most of you probably have no idea what i am talking about...the Mormons have a ritual for their women...at age 21, or at the time of marriage, a Mormon woman is given her "secret underwear"...they are, from that point, to be worn at all times, except one...bathing...she has sex in these underwear...the uses the bathroom in them...they are the equivalent in area coverage to shorts and a t-shirt...worn either snugly, or loosely. but always worn, under clothes, never to be seen by anyone. ever.
i know, right about now, you are thinking this is just absolutly nuts...and many of us passed a judgement...right away...because we saw an outward display of boundaries...it's peculiar, i'll give you that...preposterous to some minds of thought...but step back...take a closer look...
their way, in many ways is safer...definitive boundaries are set, that's it...their *suit of armor* intact...
but what of the rest of us, who just like them, wear some kind of *body armor*...
*body armor* that someone might find just as preposterous as we might find theirs...
the only difference, theirs is right there, in front of your eyes, clear and distinct...
while we stumble through, trying like oh hell to find out what other people's secret underwear look like...where they start, where they stop...and you either embrace this and respect the lil undies...or you learn you don't need underwear...nakedness, intimacy, they're blindingly beautiful when trust, love, and acceptance are true and divine...given from that part of you that puts up with insanity, because we are all insane in one way or another...
so who wants to show their underwear?
sometimes, no matter how good a person you are, the Universe, in It's infinite wisdom, rises in ultimate dominance, and and orders you to "sit down!!"....

forces you to endure the most horrific of humiliations, but you learn what it means to be humble.
strips you of everything you thought was important, and shines a spotlight on everything that is.
denies you the smallest of considerations, and you realize in amazement, the smallest things mean the most.
removes you from everything you know as comfortable, and you learn comfort comes from inside your own skin.
shatters your heart, and the gratitude for enduring, unconditional love deepens.
teases you in your dreams, and through longing, you develop patience.
heaps weight upon weight on your shoulders, and you become more strong and stand more straight.
so, cry when you need to...
scream when you have to...
but, when it is all said and done...
every tear is worth every laugh.
every fear is worth every accomplishment.
all the pain is worth all the love.
roll with it, baby, it's life...live it, enjoy it, appreciate it....
thank you MR for the lovely words...
i may desire a Master, but ultimately i am the master of my destiny...i may desire my yang, but i am whole and complete all on my own...i won't settle for anything less than a man who can make himself irreplaceable in my life as i intend to make myself irreplaceable in his...any questions?
I have never understood it. I guess because I couldn't hit a basketball with a 2x6. Golf. People are crazy about it. But, I think i have it figured out, at least why men play. Holes. It's all about the holes. Just follow me here for a minute because, wheee, here I go. Women have holes. Golf has holes. Men spend much time chasing women's holes, it's the challenge, "can I get it?" Golf has holes...same concept...3/4 of a mile away..miniscule ball..miniscule hole...a whacking device that resembles a walking stick more than sports apparatus...tell me these guys don't make it tough on themselves...heh, quite the same way they desire women that give them a challenge....here's where i think the huge fan base comes from though...where else can a man hit that many holes successfully in so short a period of time AND hang with his buddies. the only question I am left with, since I have never dated a golfer...does their pursuit of the perfect par carry over?
