A Celebration
“Once upon a time, when women were birds, there was the simple understanding that to sing at dawn and to sing at dusk was to heal the world through joy.

A Way to relax
Sitting at my Sir's feet, leaning my head against his thighs, massaging his legs. Lying on my side, spooned with my Sir in bed, his arm over me, his hand grasping my wrists, which are cuffed together. After a good, hard spanking and an orgasm, still trembling, body relaxed like a rag doll, too relaxed to move. … Continue reading A Way to relax

The problems that may have seemed unsurmountable at … Continue reading The thing that gives me hope AND A minor roadblock in my life
An important truth
i've been MIA for a couple of days now - partly because i've been trying to spend less time in front of the computer, and partly because i've just been caught up in all kinds of mundaneness. Pleasant stuff for the most part, but still. So. Let me start getting caught up. An important … Continue reading An important truth
My favorite meal
My favorite meal is a summertime meal, when local veggies are fresh. It's simple - green beans, boiled just about 15 minutes, so they're still al dente, but not crunchy, with a bit of olive oil and powdered garlic. Sliced ripe tomatoes, also with olive oil drizzled over them, sprinkled with fresh basil. Corn - … Continue reading My favorite meal
