Such a beautiful day today! I walked up to the dungeon for a session this afternoon and really enjoyed the sunshine and all the flowers that are out in people’s gardens…
My favourite flowers are gardenias and I saw quite a lot – such a beautiful perfume 🙂
Session was good fun – a naughty boy I’ve been caning for some time – though he was saying that I seem a lot more severe here on lj than I am in real life… which I wonder about… but then I do really enjoy heavy sessions – but I also enjoy the lighter side of BDSM as well, particularly the attentions of foot slaves 😉
I’ve had a few people say that they almost didn’t see me because I seem too scary, but then were surprised that I wasn’t a dragon at all!
I finally saw Big Fish last night – it was great – though I did end up crying at the end… but I often really enjoy crying watching movies…
Oh – I forgot to mention the other day that I went to Mark and Aleni’s house for dinner Friday night – Mark told me that Aleni was a great cook – which was an understatement – she made this amazing vegetarian Tuscan feast – omg – the highlight of which was a sort of baked eggplant dish with fetta and pinenuts and stuff – it was sooooo good… I’m going to have to either get the recipe or send boy out to learn – Aleni promised she’d teach him!
Writing about that’s made me hungry… I haven’t eaten much today – I must go do some grocery shopping and decide what to cook for dinner (and what wine to have with it)…
As someone who has known you in most of your incarnations (friend, professional corporate type, mistress and family person) I can say that you are both sweet as they come and scary as hell, all wrapped into the same human.
I personally love the sense of quality that comes across in your journal. It’s utter decadence, really: wine, fabulous food and caning. What more could a woman possibly want in life? Good films, sunshine and love? But you’ve got those too.
Good to see you happy.
Thank you – That would have to be one of the most lovely things anyone has said to me… I’m so blessed with the people in my life – and I feel so lucky to have been able to count you as a friend for so many years (umm I’d say 15 but that might make us feel old)
In many ways, I want to be all about quality – in friends, in fetish, in life…. but I never forget how lucky I am
Big Fish was an amazing movie – I was prepared for a soft comedy type of movie but the underlying drawn out angst (the relationship between father and son) pulled on the heart strings and I ended up bawling in the theatre. I was quite angry as I wasn’t prepared for such a good cry – lol. The final song “Man of the Hour” by Pearl Jam set the tone beautifully I thought. Sumised the whole movie for me.
I really like Tim Burton’s work – but it was quite different from what I was expecting…
I also love Tim Burton – he always does movies that capture the darker, less conventional aspects of humanity as well as the gentle, tender, grace of he human spirit. With a dash of humour and stark images…..
ah listen to me I sound like a silly movie critic – lol
