I want to bring it!

One of my past submissives was a professional writer, a poet, he had a beautiful way with words that I adored. His mind was a messy complexity of wild imagination, odd and loud, and full of pretty things, and he offered it up unfettered to me, revelling in my enjoyment of it. We would play with each other in that way, throwing words in each other’s faces, conjuring up a strange magic that would floor me every time.

I once pointed him to some writing that I liked.

“Here’s something you might enjoy,” I said innocently.

He curled his nose … Continue Reading

Celebration

He almost swaggered into the room, a huge grin on his face.

Glancing up, she started to laugh with delight. “You got it!?”

“I so fucking got it!” He laughed also.

The sound that left her mouth was almost a squeal. The length of the room was reduced to nothing under her thumping feet as she ran at him full force and jumped onto his body like a monkey. He staggered back a step or two to regain his balance as her arms wrapped around his neck, her legs around his broad torso, his large hands cupped her arse, holding … Continue Reading

Strangers

Do you remember when we were strangers?

It seems impossible now. That there was a time when we didn’t know each other.

When I didn’t know that you smirk when you’re nervous, that you hum to yourself when you cook, that you will drop everything if I so much as touch you, that your skin holds the scent of freshly mown grass, that your mouth tastes of strawberries, that you get shy when you flirt, even now after so long.

It feels like I knew you before I knew you. Like coming home.

I know you feel it too, though … Continue Reading

Grrrrr

I’ve been trying to sort out some issues on my blog (I know at least some of you have noticed that it’s been down a few times in the last week or so because you dropped me a note to let me know (thank you, I really appreciate that :)).

So while troubleshooting tonight, I made the entire thing crash (again) and to get it back up I had to [blah blah boring blah] and I was doing that instead of writing a goddamn #EveryDamnDayInJune post.

If some parts of the blog aren’t working (and they probably aren’t if you’re … Continue Reading

Song of women

I was looking for an entirely different song about women that I wanted to post, but I stumbled across this, and it’s mesmerising.

It’s been watched by 1.6m people so I am, as always, behind the curve.

The Hu are a Mongolian band, and this collaboration with Lzzy Hale is just beautiful.

I started wars
I’ve given peace
I’m your lover
I’m your mother
I’m your sister
I’m your daughter
When Kings fall to their knees they sing a woman’s song…

Bad memory problems

I have a bad memory. Truly terrible. I actually think it contributes to my introversion because it means I run into awkward social problems:
“Oh, we’ve met before? Several times? Of course we have…”
“Meet… um… [blank]??”
“We saw that movie together? Did I like it?”

Then the non-trivial which is hundred-fold worse:
“Oh, you already told me your sister had cancer… :((” *wishes the ground would open up and swallow me whole*

At work I compensated by taking copious notes about EVERYTHING, making full use of my calendar, sending follow up emails after meetings confirming agreed outcomes, and … Continue Reading

Newbie challenges

I want to say up-front that I love newbie submissives, I do. They’re so shiny :). My last submissive was a newbie and he was utter perfection.

But (you knew there was a ‘but’ coming, right? :P) I don’t have the patience or interest for those whose emotional intelligence doesn’t extend to believing in my humanity. That is *not* a situation I’m going to put myself in, fighting to be seen as human, and if I get a whiff of it with a newbie, I’m out.

There’s a school of thought that some newbies have internalised where they conflate BDSM … Continue Reading
