Recently I had two couples over for a friendly lifestyle protocol Thanksgiving. We all had a lovely evening.
We started small; potluck and each Dominant was served by their own s-type. I didn’t want it to be scary; instead a learning and growth opportunity for all.
The High Protocol group on Fetlife started a new REAL-time group: PLEASE. This group had its first event last weekend. Hosted by Lady HotchKiss with an erotic reading, cigars and brandy, and some GREAT (if I don’t say so myself) food!
Mom was in attendance and was able to meet My friends and ask questions about living in the “lifestyle”. What she learned was that we are essentially normal people with nonmainstream interests; that she would LOVE to be friends with Ms. Martha; that My friends were warm, outgoing, willing to discuss, and highly educated about who they are and what they want.
Nikita The Writer read two passages from her book “Tales From the Whipping Post” and one passage from Wolffie’s book. Nikita’s stories are a blend of naivete, charm, and raunch; just like the author. Wolffie’s excerpt was expertly written, melodic, forceful, and a he has quite a unique voice. As if that is not enough, English is his second language!
The GREAT food included Vodka Ginger Lemonade, brownies, and pistachio white-chocolate cookies (recipe still being hunted down).
There were a variety of cigars being smoked. I had the opportunity to try an Alec Bradley Tempus Creo and LOVED it. The spicy (peppery) flavor was OUTSTANDING; even if sled thought it was TOO much. Thank you RUMZ for sharing your treasure.
Since it was a “House” Warming I also got a variety of gifts: from Courvoisier to Dom Perignon to a steel reinforced leather paddle. Nothing like a BDSM “Warming” gift!
Thank you all for such a wonderful evening.

Earlier this week was My One Year Anniversary with boy! It has truly been a year of growing together. Two private and reserved people getting to know each other doesn’t happen overnight!
Some memorable moments have happened. boy being threatened multiple times by other male subs that are interested in Me; needless to say they are NOT part of My life. boy being shot – not related to U/us; THANK YOU! boy telling a family member that I am his Mistress and to call Me in case something happens. boy’s first release without masturbation in a few years – that day with the strap-on was UNREAL! Our first kiss outside Atlanta Leather Company! boy presenting Me with his slave registry after I became his Owner. boy being the better backgammon player – annoying, but true. AND, all the “user” (that would be Me) errors!
Yes, there are still many things to grow into . . . simply knowing each other better, taking my first ride on the back of boy’s new motorcycle – being his bitch, perhaps one day having boy collared, winding our way through poly, and more . . .
The BEST gift boy has ever given was when he told me that I would be his last Mistress. What an awesome responsibility, promise, and gift. I truly enjoy having boy as part of My life.
Had lunch yesterday with two FemDom friends: Domina Dea and Nikita the Writer. Of course, lunch turned into an all day event – ending about 6!
We spent the afternoon catching, talking about what we are doing, some of our challenges, and how we can work together to support each other’s projects. Dea certainly has something exciting brewing; VERY much looking forward to it being successful, profitable, and making a unique mark in the BDSM world. Nikita is hard at work on another novel, doing interview for DungeonVox, and looking forward to many new projects . . . I, of course, am doing the same old things: websites, blogs, porn, and enjoying my new toys!
Recently, I have gotten a dragon tail, a quirt, and YESTERDAY I was gifted with a plug in hitachi! WOW; that was something to experience. Suffice it to say that I can no longer call Dea a tease and Nikita developed some new skills!
Yesterday was the 40th anniversary of Stonewall. Do you know what this was? Have you ever heard of it? I hadn’t until I was about 25 and My sister was graduating from a VERY liberal college. Read the rest of this entry »
sled and I went to the Southeast Leatherfest on June 10!
It started to with a trip for sled to the doctor for an 11:30 appointment; and NO food since midnight! I had suggested a 11:30pm snack, but we were sleeping that the appointed hour. He insisted that he could handle it and that he wasn’t hungry. The appointment went, but was far away from the event. After harrowing trip over; during which sled was distracted, ornery, and short – yes, while DRIVING! Normally, he is not like that; so, I was pretty sure what the problem was.
