NSFW: FetLife & A Fantasy
Friday, June 27th, 2008I discovered a delightful website called FetLife.com thanks to my pal, Nyghtowl and have been spending far too much time enjoying it. As I’ve mentioned recently, I feel the need to explore my inner deviant a bit more, and FetLife has already connected me to a number of like-minded individuals. Yesterday I went to the Vancouver munch with a new [...]

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008What I’ve Been Up To…
Wednesday, June 18th, 2008I’m finally able to sit at my desk for more than five minutes without either being in excruciating pain or too drugged out to type, so here is my long-overdue post.

Procrastinate Much?
Monday, June 2nd, 2008Yes, I’m terribly bad for not writing in ages. What can I say? It was my birthday, and I felt like being spoiled and lazy. Not the most auspicious start to my 33rd year, but I promise I’ll make up for it…
My birthday meal itself was spectacular. I suppose I could post the menu but [...]
