FFF – 3-2-18
It's check in time - and I don't really have anything good to report. I didn't lose weight, although I don't know how that's possible when I'm still eating radically differently and significantly less, but there it is. Exercise was down, probably because I was traveling most of the week and it's hard to exercise … Continue reading FFF – 3-2-18

But I Don’t Want To
"But i don't want to, Sir," i say, and even i can hear the whine in my voice. He nods, his eyes moving across me, taking in every aspect of my naked body, kneeling in front of him.
