Service Book of Days 11/10/09

10 11 2009
  • Outside my window... (weather, what do you hear, what do you see?) when I opened my eyes on Monday I saw Master’s beautiful face. I spent a wonderful 5 days with Him and just connecting again with him physically is important for us….for me.
  • my thoughts…are introspective. Master and I were able to play my entire time with Him this trip. During one time he had invoked so much emotions inside of me that I got angry and I screamed at him. This was something new for us and I have been thinking and trying to process this so that I may talk to Him about what happened.
  • Today’s Quote… I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporarily out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience. Mitch Hedberg (1968 – 2005),Comedy Central Presents

There is always a way to look at what can be perceived as an initial hindrance and find the opportunity in it instead….and don’t forget to enjoy the trip.

  • i am thankful for…having Master.
  • From my service training...(any skills, training etc; notes you want to share this week) I am learning to focus on my space through meditation and not to stress and work to be who my Master wants me to be and not who I think he wants. I forget sometimes, could be the distance, that I am His slave to develop as His slave and in the way that he sees fit.
  • From the kitchen…(menu for the week, what are you cooking?) I made a simple strawberry shortcake for Master and a friend using puff pastry, made my own whip cream and used frozen strawberries in a light syrup. It was delicious and simple for after the dinner I made.
  • i am wearing…my workout clothes and I had a chance to go to the gym after work
  • i am creating... (crafts, sewing etc;) hmmm I would like to create something from my own hands…not sure what though.
  • my adventures this week...(where are you going this week?) is readjusting from my week with Master. Getting back into the swing of not being with him. I will also be continue to do work around the house. Fixing it up to sale.
  • Becoming well read…(What are you reading this week?) I bought Anneke Jacobs book “As She’s told”. It is a really interesting read. I can see how it can make a good discussion book as it gives a process of someone becoming an absolute, or IE M/s couple. I like the way it talks from the male and female perspective.
  • i manifest and co-create...(what are your hopes, dreams, and prayers this week) Peace and tranquility in my house and with my children.
  • Todays Melody...(what music are you listening to? even if it’s just the sound of a bird…) The Bird is the Word….lol Master sent me this on voicemail and now the song is in my

head…lol so what’s a girl to do but share :D

  • One of my favorite things..is to dress sexy. I am learning how to dress slutty as well. :-D
  • further plans for this week…Going to keep it quiet this week and do stuff around the house.
  • Still….life(share a picture you’ve taken OR a picture you found online that speaks to you)

“Teasing” a New FetLife Site – Kinky Tease

6 11 2009

John Baku (why does this man not have a Wikipedia entry?) has announced that due to popular demand, FetLife will have a line of t-shirts, and maybe other schwag. I am eagerly awaiting the T-shirts, though personally a pin or patch would look better on my vest. Kinky Tease (you get the pun?) is the new site that he launched to support the effort.

Initially there will be 3 designs, which you can see here, here and here. (FetLife Membership required.) Order yours on December 1, 2009.  I am all a twitter.

Speaking of twitter, you can follow KinkyTease on Twitter.

NCSF Asks Community to File Complaints With Police About Eagle Raid

4 11 2009

Well, I had wanted to talk about John Baku’s latest project today. But a more urgent matter has come up, and since I like to be somewhat timely on my blog, I decided to bump John (Sorry man) and talk some more about the Atlanta Eagle Raid.

On November 3rd, the NCSF issued a news release, which I will quote below.

ACTION ALERT
National Coalition for Sexual Freedom
Lawless cops are a threat to everyone in America
NCSF joins state and local representatives in urging everyone to file a complaint if they were present at the Eagle on September 10th, when the Atlanta police illegally detained 62 patrons and 8 employees and searched them without a warrant, reasonable suspicion, or probable cause. You can file a complaint with the Atlanta Police Department and the Atlanta Citizen Review Board which is investigating the raid:
http://atlantaeagleraid.com/how-to-file-complaints
If you need to maintain anonymity, then please contact Dan Grossman, who represents the Eagle and many of the patrons in connection with the raid. Mr. Grossman can be reached at (404) 654-0326, or at a special email address established for this matter: AtlantaEagleLawyer@gmail.com.
CONFIDENTIALITY IS GUARANTEED UNDER ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGE. If you ask a lawyer for legal advice, the lawyer can’t reveal anything you tell him, including your name: the police can’t require it, your name can’t be subpoenaed, and the court can’t demand it. If a lawyer breaks attorney-client privilege, he or she will be disbarred.
“It’s so important that our patrons come forward,” says Richard Ramey, co-owner of the Eagle. “Everyone needs to hear how badly our civil rights were violated.”
“Please call today!” urges Susan Wright, spokesperson for NCSF. “This is a clear human rights violation. If we don’t speak up, they won’t stop persecuting us. We are the only ones who can fight for our rights.”
To read more about what happened at the Atlanta Eagle, visit http://AtlantaEagleRaid.com
National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF) is funded solely by donations. Please visit our website to make a donation and help support this ongoing work: http://ncsfreedom.org/
Please distribute this Action Alert widely (filed November 3, 2009)

National Coalition for Sexual Freedom (NCSF)
The National Coalition for Sexual Freedom is committed to creating a political, legal, and social environment in the United States that advances the equal rights of consenting adults who practice forms of alternative sexual and relationship expression. NCSF advances the rights and advocates for consenting adults in the SM-Leather-Fetish, swing, and polyamory communities. We pursue our vision through direct services, education, advocacy, and outreach in conjunction with our partner organizations to directly benefit these communities.

Service Blog 11/2/09

2 11 2009

Outside my window… (weather, what do you hear, what do you see?) I didn’t see much of the day today. I have not been feeling well so I came back home and tried to get some rest. I am going to be with Master this weekend and I will not be getting sick. Positive thinking works.

my thoughts…are immersing myself more into my life with Sir. Taking the time to learn more about how I am as a slave.

Today’s Quote… “One of the keys to happiness is a bad memory” Rita Mae Brown
For me, I have not desire to hold onto the memories of anything that will hinder me from living openly and honestly in my relationship with Master, my friends and family.

i am thankful for…always my family, all my moments – good and bad

From my service training… (any skills, training etc; notes you want to share this week) I am learning to focus on my space through meditation.

From the kitchen… (menu for the week, what are you cooking?) I am going to be with Master and I think I will try and make scones for breakfast for us :)

i am wearing…a blue bathrobe to help keep me warm and snuggly

i am creating… (crafts, sewing etc;) hmmm I would like to create something from my own hands…not sure what though.

my adventures this week… (where are you going this week?) I am going to be with Master. Yay. Leaving on Wednesday and it will be a fantastic time :)

Becoming well read… (What are you reading this week?) I just bought Anneke Jacobs book “As She’s told” I have heard many things about it, both controversial and good.

i manifest and co-create… (what are your hopes, dreams, and prayers this week) Peace and tranquility in my house and with my children.

Todays Melody… (what music are you listening to? even if it’s just the sound of a bird…) The quiet an d solitude of the early morning. I love to fantasize and let my mind wander and the quiet of the early morning or a long car ride gives me those opportunities.

One of my favorite things..dance. In my mind and when I am alone, I dance like a prima ballerina. I hope to translate this into being comfortable letting other people see me as Master loves a sensual dance.

further plans for this week…packing for my trip to be with Master :) .

Still….life (share a picture you’ve taken OR a picture you found online that speaks to you)

ok…how cute is this

Mastering Mastery

28 10 2009

I ran across this video by Merlin Mann, and I thought it is an example about how to become a better person in the lifestyle. Now, watching this video may take a bit of patience and it doesn’t directly relate to our Lifestyle.  But it focuses on being the best.  Mastering a task.  Watch this video. Reflect upon its deeper meaning. I found it quite informative.

Service Book of Days 10/26/09

26 10 2009

Outside my window… (weather, what do you hear, what do you see?)for the past few days at work we have inundated with ladybugs. Some believe that they are good luck. It reminded me of my favorite movie “under the tuscan sun”

my thoughts…From the movie one of the characters tells the story of when she was a little girl she would search for ladybugs and not find them. One day she fell asleep in the grass and woke up with ladybugs all over here. The point being stop searching and you will find what you desire.
Sometimes I can be so consumed with trying to find out how to be a slave that I miss the chance to just be a slave.

Today’s Quote…A joyful life is an individual creation that cannot be copied from a recipe.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, 1990
I resolve to not look to how others live their lives to try and validate my life. I resolve to live my own life and create my own story.

i am thankful for…always my family, all my moments – good and bad. I know I keep saying this but these are the things that I am most thankful for…everything else is just gravy, as the saying goes.

From my service training…(any skills, training etc; notes you want to share this week) Also, I am going to start working again with my belly dancing DVD. Master loves sensual dance so this will be something worthwhile for me to learn. Exploring my sensual self. I am women and I love my sensual self.

From the kitchen…(menu for the week, what are you cooking?) I am looking forward to finding and cooking our new recipe for this week. Hmmm think I will try cooking fish.

i am wearing…Nothing….sitting here holding floppy my big fluffy doggie Master bought for me :)

i am creating…(crafts, sewing etc;) nothing new at the moment. But I am looking forward to trying my hand at making gifts this year.

my adventures this week…(where are you going this week?) Continued repairs on my house and packing my clothes to spend time with Master next week.

Becoming well read…(What are you reading this week?)…A science fiction podcast called the 7th Son and Master recommended Mrs Beeton’s Book of Household Management (Oxford World’s Classics)

i manifest and co-create…(what are your hopes, dreams, and prayers this week) Peace and tranquility in my house and with my children. I pray for the people around us to not take their life for granted. Incidentally, the phrase “peace and tranquility” is Master’s new signoff tagline.

Todays Melody..(what music are you listening to? even if it’s just the sound of a bird…)  No melodies today…just quiet.

Still….life (share a picture you’ve taken OR a picture you found online that speaks to you)

This is a picture of a corset that I bought at one BlackBEAT but more importantly my next tattoo of Master’s initials. :)

Master Void Interviews namaste

21 10 2009

And I bet you are asking yourself, who is namaste?  Well for one namaste is the slave who mentored my little esclave. But I will let her introduce herself.

slave – namaste has counseled women and taught about embracing submission for over 15 years. She brings this knowledge into her relationship serving as Master Obsidians’ 24/7 TPE slave as well as to counseling and aiding in the development of other slaves in the lifestyle. Her writings on surrender and absolute slavery have been featured on web sites and in books. She is Founder and co-moderator of various lifestyle groups, including one geared specifically for slaves in TPE relationships. She is into Domestic Service, Protocols, Spirituality and The Art of Surrender.

Obsidian and her make a wonderful pair, and have served as an influence for both myself and my slave.  I wanted to interview both of them, and namaste had her interview ready first.

Service Book of Days 10/19/09

19 10 2009

Outside my window… (weather, what do you hear, what do you see?) it is a little brisk on my side of the world today. We’ve had weather that was 14 degrees below normal for this time of year.
my thoughts…are about trying to regain my equilibrium in regards to my slavery. So I have decided to meditate and focus on my commitment to Master Void.

Today’s Quote…When they call the roll in the Senate, the Senators do not know whether to answer ‘Present’ or ‘Not guilty.’ Theodore Roosevelt (1858 – 1919)

That was just funny…lol Hey not all quotes have to be meaningful in a serious way. Life is not really that serious all the time.

i am thankful for…always my family, all my moments – good and bad. I know I keep saying this but these are the things that I am most thankful for…everything else is just gravy, as the saying goes.

From my service training…(any skills, training etc; notes you want to share this week) I am learning quick but nutritious meals for the kids and getting them into good habits of nutrition. It is never too late to learn some good habits.

Also, I am going to start working again with my belly dancing DVD. Master loves sensual dance so this will be something worthwhile for me to learn. Exploring my sensual self.

From the kitchen…(menu for the week, what are you cooking?) I am learning that it is not just about cooking the food but creating comfort. A meal that is served well means just as much as the preparation.

i am wearing…my workout clothes. Trying to stay true to my health and fitness goals set by Master.

i am creating…(crafts, sewing etc;) nothing new at the moment. But I think I want to create something. Just not sure what yet.

my adventures this week…(where are you going this week?) Continuing to repair my house for selling.

Becoming well read…(What are you reading this week?)…Nothing this week. I am going to search for another good book on surrendering and slavery. Master recommended “Leathersex: A Guide for the Curious Outsider and the Serious Player”, by Joseph Bean and Mrs Beeton’s Book of Household Management (Oxford World’s Classics)

i manifest and co-create…(what are your hopes, dreams, and prayers this week) Peace and tranquility in my house and with my children. I pray for the people around us to not take their life for granted. Incidentally, the phrase “peace and tranquility” is Master’s new signoff tagline.

Todays Melody..(what music are you listening to? even if it’s just the sound of a bird…)  No melodies today…just quiet.

One of my favorite things…I am relearning my love for cooking.  For creating my own meals.
further plans for this week…housecleaning/clearing. Continuing my workout plan. Fixing up my house.

Still….life (share a picture you’ve taken OR a picture you found online that speaks to you)
Fractal.  I love saying that word.  It’s a fun word to say.

A fractal is “a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole,”[1] a property called self-similarity
