Sunday, I went to a Buddhist Temple. I guess that might be a bit strange all by itself, or seem strange to some of you. But I've been thinking about it for a long time and I found a place not too far from where I live. It's fairly new, which is nice. So I … Continue reading A Strange Thing Happened…
“Take Care” Step Three
He was waiting for my answer, and I wanted to answer, but I was so shocked and embarrassed and - well, turned on, I was really hot. All those feelings just froze me. He laughed. “Alina. Look at me.” Slowly, I raised my eyes to his, and in that moment, all my concerns slipped away. … Continue reading “Take Care” Step Three
“Take Care” Step Two
HIs words lingered in the air. “Good girl.” I bit my lower lip, embarrassed at the rush of pleasure those words gave me. I couldn’t look at him, I knew he was watching me, but I don’t want him to see my reaction. We sat in silence while I carefully avoided eye contact and tried … Continue reading “Take Care” Step Two
“Take Care” Step One
"I think you need someone to take care of you," he said. I laughed, "Noooo, I'm pretty sure I can take care of myself. I've been doing it a long time now. In fact, it's usually me taking care of other people!" I expected him to smile, but he looked at me quite seriously, his … Continue reading “Take Care” Step One
This Life
Nope, I have not suddenly developed a kinky relationship with anyone. This is one of those "crying in my beer" posts, so feel free to skip it. I went to the beach this morning, which is always lovely. No less lovely today than ever. I've been to the coffee shop, to the farmers market, for … Continue reading This Life
It’s My Birthday Week!
Ok, we already celebrated on Sunday, as we do. But my birthday is actually later in the week and I think I'll celebrate all week long. Let's start with a little song from the Beatles: https://youtu.be/MjF1bG5LUcs This song is also for you, if it's your birthday too!! The day is almost over, but since I’m … Continue reading It’s My Birthday Week!
Winter Solstice 2022
Today, December 21 is Winter Solstice. The shortest day of the year. And the beginning of winter. A time for calm and quiet, pulling back and taking care of yourself. December is already my self-proclaimed Self-care month, so that fits nicely. This year I thought I'd start with sharing some winter solstice music. First, a … Continue reading Winter Solstice 2022
And the Fetlife Not-So-Funny
I ended my Fetlife exchange with Young Guy mentioning that he did not seem like a dominant. Perhaps that was insensitive. Although I really did just intend to start a conversation about types of kink. However. The road to hell* and all that. Cause here's what happened next: Him: Do you always judge and assume … Continue reading And the Fetlife Not-So-Funny
Fetlife Fun, Edition 58
Having backed off from any vanilla relationship possibilities, I turned my attention to the kink dating scene. I signed up for BDSM Seniors (don't laugh.) Ok, laugh if you want to, but there I was. I couldn't find any info on what it would cost before I made a profile, so I half-ass threw something … Continue reading Fetlife Fun, Edition 58
Better, Better…
I have reminded my self to back up and take care of myself. Being on the dating site, even for a minute, was also a reminder that all relationships come with their own baggage. I have to laugh at myself - here’s what I want: Someone who can see me for who I am, both … Continue reading Better, Better…
