I know, that sounds like the title for a fantasy. Actually, it's not. I was just thinking about how I come over here and talk about the woes of my life on a regular basis when I have so many positive things that I seldom mention. So I thought I might start a series where … Continue reading The Pleasures, 1

I come here for balance, I think. Sometimes anyhow. When I’m feeling a bit off, a bit askew, this place is my touchstone. I wrote that, and then I thought, ”What the hell do I mean by that?” So I had to look up “touchstone” to see if it meant what I wanted to say. … Continue reading A Touchstone

I ran across this quote recently. Something in it speaks to me - oh, maybe it's all the ways it is me. Although, I loved my waiting tables days. It reads like a poem to me - even though it's not. But here's how it reads to me. “The useless days will add up to … Continue reading For You

I had thought I was going to finish Part 3 of Her Friday Check-In, but I'm tired and not feeling great today Canceled clients and meetings this morning to sleep. Running a bit behind on some admin stuff, so I'm hoping to take my time and catch up on all that today. My attention is … Continue reading IRL Interlude

I move in phases, I think. My needs ebb and flow like waves, but there are tides too, not just the roll of each wave. Like most introverts, I have a deep need for alone-ness - which I've indulged this week while MP was out of town. From that sense of being alone, the need … Continue reading The Need for Connection

I am still chatting with some people on Fetlife. Not with the first guy who started a conversation, I think I scared him off. Lol, no really. He asked me a question. He wanted to know my opinion on the Dom/sub vs Master/slave distinction. In retrospect, I think he just wanted a short "people should … Continue reading And IRL

Several things made today lovely. Last night I decided that I wasn’t going to start working before 8 a.m. anymore. That might not seem like a big deal, or it might seem like something I should have done ages ago. But it felt good to get up today and know that I wasn’t going to … Continue reading Sunny Sunday

Not that I owe anyone an explanation, but after my last post, Duncan Lorry, over at Your Sex Interview was commenting on the "Caregivers who want to have sex" name of the Facebook group I just left. Lol, yes, that does sound bad. And of course that's not what the group calls itself, just my … Continue reading An Explanation

So, I left that group - the Caregivers Who Want to Have Sex group. Funniest thing, I tried to write some more of the fantasy, but it just didn't go anywhere good. I tried several approaches, but no matter what I did, it ended with an "ew," not an "ahhhhhh." I thought that was a … Continue reading The Power of Fantasy

"Are you sure you're in the right place?" he messaged. It was just a chat message on Facebook, from someone I'd never met, but somehow I could picture him with one eyebrow raised. I laughed. And messaged back, "Oh, probably not. I rarely am." It was a hook-up group of sorts where we'd met, on … Continue reading In the Wrong Place… a fantasy
