I know, I'm always writing about joy these days. It's a lot better than the Days of Whining and Misery, isn't it? But I've been thinking today about TTWD. The urban dictionary says: "TTWD stands for "This Thing We Do" and is often used by the bdsm/kink community to describe non-vanilla practices or activities they may engage in, … Continue reading The Joy of TTWD

Rushing Through
"Hey, whoa, hang on..." "Oh! I'm sorry, Sir - I didn't see you there - I'm just.." "I know you didn't see me! You almost ran right into me. Where are you going in such a big hurry?" "Just getting more coffee. I wanted to get some more work done before you got up. So I was rushing." She felt herself … Continue reading Rushing Through
Kinky PSA
Blogs are a wonderful way to discover some of the exciting ways that kink shows up in people's lives and in our fantasies. However, they are not necessarily a reliable source of information when it comes to how to really live in a power exchange relationship. I thought it would be fun to share some books that … Continue reading Kinky PSA
Perspective
Some of you may remember that once upon a time, not really that long ago, I was firmly committed to the idea that I needed a Dom to Dom me; that to experience the pleasures of submission, there had to be a Dom physically present to inflict all the pleasure/pain. Since then, I've moved far away … Continue reading Perspective
Punished
She was standing, arms stretched above her head, suspended from a leather leash that ran from her cuffs to a hook in the ceiling. She was fastened securely, and grateful that she was not bound too tightly. She hated being whipped while she was pulled up on her toes. "Ohh!" she cried out - she had … Continue reading Punished
What about the Doms?
I'm over here being all analytical about submissives and what we need - which is, of course, what I know the most about. But I begin to wonder, what about the Doms? What is this like for them? What feelings get triggered that they have to work through? I know that a common one is working through their … Continue reading What about the Doms?
The Third Wednesday
It was Sir X's birthday yesterday, so we had a special script from Sir Jon. Yes, it was a birthday spanking, only I "took the spanking for him." Sir X is 71. That's a lot of spanks. But the first 36 were with the flogger, and of course, I love that. 35 more with the big paddle - oof! That … Continue reading The Third Wednesday
Shadows
Being a fan of Jung and Jungian psychology, I believe that we all have a shadow side - that part of ourselves that we keep hidden. Often, people try to hide their shadow from themselves. "Oh, I'm. not that kind of person, I'd never do that..." No matter what "that" is, there are things we'd like to think … Continue reading Shadows
Rebooting Today
I started a post this morning that ending up leading me down a logical path with an end point I didn't like. I need to pursue that some other time maybe, but not today. So instead, I need to take a different path. As a teacher of Mindful Self Compassion, I have developed a habit of putting … Continue reading Rebooting Today
In my Vanilla World…
I hardly ever know what I'm going to write about until I start. I might have thought I would write about the lovely session Sir and I had last night and how I still can feel the effects today sitting here. Not just sitting a bit carefully, but you know, the glow is lingering too. So I'll … Continue reading In my Vanilla World…
