The other day I was thinking about the differences between what counted as a protocol and what was in fact a ritual. This is in part prompted by a workshop I'm doing for MVK on April 4, 2009 called D/s 101
So I was musing about a past relationship wherein I ...

So I've been reviewing and processing a couple of bad racist experiences that I had some time ago.
Arguing on FetLife will do that.
At one point I was having a conversation with someone and I said something like "there's a difference between political correctness and racial awareness ya know!" Now... I ...

It has been only in the last four years or so that my notions of this type of play expanded beyond "adult baby" play (diapers, nursing, etc) and I always thought that sex was involved somehow. (Strange since my personal kinks don't follow that kind of template.)

Here we have CBC. A national broadcaster that really feels like the heart of Canada to me. Maybe not the whole heart, but certainly a chamber.
One of the programs run on CBC Radio One on Saturday mornings is North by Northwest which has resurected a segment called Lost Childhood Books. ...

Yee Haw!
This has been a been an on again off again labour for a looong time. It's been a love/hate gathering of writing from all over the web. It was prompted, in part, by someone asking about a post I had written back in the day. Did I still have ...

I'm REALLY upset with myself.
In fact, as I sat, peed, and thought a little this morning, I had this sense that this might be the THING that I take with me to my grave. I thought I had exterminated the rats I saw in my psychic house. They retreated to ...

Barely into the New Year and I've got many a plan up my sleeve already. Which surprises even me given the events of the fall.
In September I had major surgery (I was sick when I was at the conference) and have just returned to work now. But I'm still being ...

This time next week I'll be waking up to my first full day with a big chunk missing.
Can I be more appreciative of SP, NC, KC, EM and AN? Getting to here, which today feels like one I should spend in my new (!!!) bed, has been.... I don't know. ...

Took a serious break from my learning path this year. Life indeed what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.
I committed myself at the beginning of the year to expanding my understanding, skill and network of people - locally and afield - in the area of Dominance/submission and ...

Who knew that a 60lb rabid porcupine crossed with a ball of lava trying to fight it's way out of one's body could be so highly resistant to tylenol3. Thank goodness that it doesn't bung me no matter how much I eat. THANK GAWD for that.
Happy Pride indeed.
Here's to days ...

Soon I'll be on my way to Black Beat. A conference I've been wanting (and fearing) to attend for five years or so.

I can't wait to surround myself with black kinksters. To be able to walk into a space where I don't have to explain so many things about how ...

I keep forgetting that in addition to chronic pain and discomfort (hence being constantly drug affected), that alien babies also cause hormonal imbalances which can lead to emotional sensitivity, mood swings, anemia induced fatigue - no, exhaustion - and insomnia among other things.
While I fight denial of fact, and in ...

[emerging from the shadows of listening]
I been tracking some of the writing that has appeared since I return to writing with tales of the texture that my life has on a "this is 2008!?" level.
It always amazes/amuses me what people will speak to or address and what they won't. The ...
