Holidays have rarely had any importance to me. I spent a couple of decades travelling for business and when you do that, the last thing you want to do with time off is spend it in airports and hotels. A holiday was a day or two spent doing relaxing at home.

Dreams, eh ? They’re something I rarely remember. I’ll often have the vague memory that I must have dreamed before awakening yet almost never recall what it was. So it was a bit of a surprise the other week to have a dream I could vividly recall at the time and even now have […]

How does an introverted, asexual, aromantic submissive go dating ? I guess that over the years the answer works out to be rarely and with trepidation.

Love Letter To A Nobody Reframing my thinking … “People pleasing” is also known as “fawning” – displaying weak boundaries, inviting abusers and narcissists into your space / life with one’s own kindness and compassion, seeing it being leeched away, then turned against the target. It is also establishing repeated permission to be treated cruelly […]
Reading Time: 5 minutes Pride usually gets me into trouble. Or perhaps it’s not actual pride, more an unguarded slide into smugness. The worst part of pride is mistaking it for approval from others. Well, let’s qualify that, it’s when they are approving of you in doing things that conform to their world view and not yours.

I find that the prompt of privacy also encompasses several other recent prompts that I’ve been too busy to write for. When all is said and done I am a very private person. Is that a natural trait, or is it a learned behaviour. I don’t think I was a private person until the […]

This wasn’t a prompt I thought I could write about, then I saw the posts that have already been linked and they set me thinking. One of the things to surprise me was the number of people who separated sex and intimacy. Some going so far as to actively consider them as separate activities […]

This post, published just before Christmas wasn’t linked to any prompt. Very timely that May and Floss have “2019 in a Nutshell” as the #F4T prompt to end the year. With Christmas being somewhat crap, re-reading this post of only 10 days ago provides a larger perspective on how good a year 2019 has been […]

Now that’s a scary title reference. Here I am trying to be culturally topical except that on checking I find that TW3 aired even before I was born 😱 !! For the blog this has been a year of consolidation. It’s first full January to December. The first year of it being part of […]

There are big lies and small lies. There are the lies we tell ourselves, the lies we tell to others and the lies others present to us.

Is it a vice, an indulgence, or perhaps a fetish ? Certainly it started as a fetish, probably the very first real and acknowledged one. It gradually became a vice, then an indulgence and now it’s almost a necessity as something nice that makes me feel … well, feel. What am I talking about […]

I’m Not A Slave – I was Bamboozled There are parts of my mind I can never reopen. Parts of my mind that need to stay locked. The parts that opened, I now realise, were burgeoning with subliminal messages and possibly drowning in confusion of discovering I liked the kink he showed me (without consent) […]

See You Next Tuesday Tuesday 14 May 2019 “See You Next Tuesday” Tuesday’s I always want to sleep as long as possible, invariably, I wake up really early, before six am and can’t settle back to sleepy snoozing. I then have 7 or 8 hours of restless pacing or trying to find errands or jobs […]

Gratitude It’s the weirdest thing. Seeing my Twitter @name in a compilation list – The Top 100 Sex Blogging Superheroes of 2019 I’m not a nuts and bolts, dildo testing, vibrator wielding, uncovered gusset angled writer. Whilst, I quickly add – zero judgements of others – this is, after all, how we learn from each other […]

I’ll let you into a secret. I have a work in my drafts folder that talks about some secrets. It’s been there many months and it’s a perfect piece for this prompt. But you’re not going to see it until I’m ready or it eventually passes its sell by date 😜

One Wish Thoughts keep swirling into view then out again. My head aches from too many thoughts. I’m not a scholarly deep thinker I’m an over thinker An over analyser The last few days (at time of writing) have not been the best. I thought I was doing a lot better. It’s the first meltdown […]

There’s a moment in time during childhood that I can pinpoint as to when my life changed irrevocably. The fork in the road took me out of one placid inevitability into a chaotic future that still has repercussions each time the butterfly flaps its wings. Obviously, as a child, the choice was made for […]
