Summer of Funk


No, i am not making a reference to the style of music. And i am definitely not commenting on a smell. i am speaking of the mood. It seems, after getting caught up with some of my favorite blogs, that there is a large portion of D/s couples going through a "recession" of their relationship. Mistress and i have been very on again off again this summer, and it seems we are not alone.

Domina and anthony(Here) are going through their own taxing of their relationship, even after Domina's vacation. Stress, work, family, and economics have put a strain on their time together. This has been the case for Mistress and i also. Though, i found it interesting that it led to their "switching". i know Mistress would never want, fantasize, or desire any part of switching roles. i wouldn't even know what to do. This probably explains why i never had sex in my first marriage. Since i couldn't initiate it, my ex most likely thought i wasn't interested. But i digress.

Elle over at Kinkunleashed has run into hard times with boy toy and has been flirting with even spliting up. Not surpising, but stress from work and life have effected them also. Maybe this sinking economy is trickling down to parts of people's lives they had not expected.

It is really ashame because the weather(especially here) has been nice and moderate and not overly hot. One would think that would raise folk's spirits and in turn fuel that primal D/s fire. i don't claim to know whats going on, but there is is something odd going on this summer.

Let's hope this funk lifts soon.

Sick and Tired of Being Sick and Tired

i don't even know what has been happening this summer with all the sickness. It seems we have had a outbreak of Swine Flu in which O/our daughter brought home from day camp. This has led to dealing with someone in the house being ill since before the 4th. This has really put a damper on O/our time together. i am pleased to relay that Mistress allowed me to enter Her and cum over the 4th weekend. It has been a very long time since Mistress has allowed me to enter Her and i am very thankful for Her generosity. It was wonderful to make love with Mistress and please Her that way.

Since times have been a downer lately(with the exception of last weekend), i thought i would bring some humor and observations i have been making recently. Mainly, my observation of D/s or BDSM in the media. i have decided to share some of my favorite humorous examples that have been out lately.




This one has been probably the most popular. No question it is a very well done ad. When it aired, i remember Mistress and i looking at each other and smiling. i think we still do it every time it comes on.





The second ad i stumbled upon in a search for one of my favorites. For the life of me i couldn't find the commercial i saw a long time ago. When i actually did find it, the site it was posted on had been taken down. In the process of a renwed search, i cam across this T-Mobil commercial.





This last one is my absolute favorite. i was so excited when i finally was able to track it down. i hope this puts a smile on You and helps as everyone gets started back to the work week.

Missing my Collar


As some of You may have noticed that i changed my avatar icon recently. If You are still wondering what i changed it to, i wilkl explain.

One day, i was feeling deep and philosophical and i started pondering my collar and my submission. Until then, i never realized the connection of the three rings(until recently)wear. The smallest, being my wedding ring. Needing something light and extremely durable, Mistress helped me pick out a titanium ring. i know what You were thinking, but no, i am not that small that that was my cock ring.

Which brings me to the second ring. i purchased it as a gift for Mistress when W/we first started O/our plunge into D/s. i had it delivered to the house while i was at work. If you are looking for an outstanding metal cockring, this is it. HERE

Lastly, Mistress purchased a steel collar for me while i was away for an extended time on a work trip. She had it waiting for me when i got back and needless to say i was very excited. i naively wore it 24/7 for quite a while. Then a job change to being employeed to running O/our own business led to Mistress deciding that W/we shouldn't be so obvious. The moment that changed O/our perception of what the public saw was when a customer complimented me on the collar and commented "Kinky". It was positive but seems that W/we not as naive as W/we were before.

So now i usually wear it in the winter but do not have a substitute to don during the summer months. Mistress has discussed anklets, which would be exciting also. Any readers have ideas, W/we would love to hear them. In the mean time, i will be missing my collar.

"Life...don't talk to me about life"


That is one of my favorite quotes from "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" in which Marvin the Manically Depressed Robot responds to one of his crew-mates. Sometimes i feel that it the voice in my head when things get crazy. It is a constant balancing act between the demands of house/work and ensuring my Mistress' pleasure. Much of the time, "life" gets in the way. i am sure it is the same for Her. Not only has Mistress' been working on Her Master's degree(just after finishing her Bachelors) but has recently accepted a new job that will take Her away during the work day. On top of all of that, i had all of my obligations recently which included a college friend visiting on vacation from the Middle East. Of course, when all that is going on, family has upped the ante with their own crises which needed our attention(justifiably)

Somewhere in the middle of all of this, there needs to be time for Mistress. Don't get me wrong, there is ALWAYS time for Mistress. Just not the kind of time that allows for quiet and intimate bonding. All during this, W/we have been working on upping the ante(so to speak) on O/our own relationship. i simply adore Mistress and am so proud of all the work She does does for Herself and O/our family. i am in awe of what She gets accomplished each and every day. She inspires me to do more, work harder, and most importantly, be a better sub. i know that all of these things She is doing will bring better things for O/our family, i just hope that it may bring some more quality time.

All i really know, is that i need to make some time for U/us to get away soon and leave some of O/our responsibilities behind. She deserves it. For all of Her work. And for how wonderful She is. The last thing i would like to see is either of U/us turing into Marvin the robot.
