Saturday This and That

I thought I'd write a mid-day entry about the variety of things that are going through my mind right now. When my thoughts are jumbled, writing helps me get organized.

We had some pretty bad news yesterday about my Dad - totally out of the blue which made it a much bigger blow to bear. I was pretty upset for awhile but the more I've been thinking about it the more I realize how much of my life I've been putting on hold for the past six-eight months. Even though my schedule is going to be tight, I need to keep doing the things I love. Carpe Diem and all that jazz ;)

Last night I was thinking about how submissive men are often viewed as weak by people from outside the FemDom lifestyle - a perception that is far from the truth. Certainly there are weak submissive men but there are weak men who are "Doms", vanilla, or whatever. It's times like this that I really appreciate the strength that my submissive man possesses. When your man says with loving calmness, "whatever you need, whatever I can do - I am here for you," it makes even really tough things seem a little more bearable. I love it that he doesn't have some crazy "Dommes are always strong, Dommes never make mistakes, Dommes are basically perfect" mentality.

He's been doing more shopping. Since he hates to shop and he sounded so excited when he told me this last night, I can only assume he is shopping for some more fun stuff like the opera gloves. He did tell me this time not to open the package in front of Bill (poor Bill, he's a dear and I love him to pieces, but I'm not sure he's ready for me to open a package in front of him and have a bunch of really kinky stuff fall out). I could have instructed Rook to tell me what he bought but he was having a pretty good time teasing me with his secret. Someone asked me earlier what I thought about submissives teasing Dommes and I didn't think to share this story with him. Sometimes being teased like this is fun. It's just good to know I am in a position to end it whenever I wish ;)

In other areas of interest to me, I've added some new blogs to my "blogs I read" list on the sidebar. Some I've been reading for awhile and I have no idea why I failed to list them til now. If your write a blog and it's not listed, write to me and let me know. I only keep active blogs (those who have entries within the last 30 days) listed here but on my Mesmerizing Women of the Web site I list sites that are not as active.

There's more floating around in my mind to share but I've been interrupted 5-6 times already so I think it's time to close my computer and get busy doing other things.
