Double Trouble!!

Well the news is out, it hit the newstands at Glint within moments of the ultrasound.
YT Recreant (Long live La Presidente, and all who sail within her)
Never has that expression been truer!

TWINS are due in the middle of May. The gender of the little darlings has yet to be determined. Until then they are identified by the letters A and B. Officially...

All YT can say is...."I just want them to be healthy."

The baby's daddy has not been named, but it is rumored that he does not yet know of this new developement.

Clinic Madness!!




I had a crazy rl week, last week, with a lot of commitments. I know how boring that must be to most of you.

OK... both of you that actually take the time to read the 'blog. But I have had a wild ride in the last week, only to return to sl in a rush!





It was time to open the OB clinic on Nayeli. The design and build was by Jacobius Bravin. The clinic was furnished by your humble blogger. It is rumored that La Presidente may be visiting the site soon, for her first ultrasound. The location has been kept top secret!

Stay tuned!

Soapbox Derby~

Hi, OK time for another rant…

So I am climbing on my soapbox and having my say!

I have been trying very, very, hard to stay out of controversy, but really. Sometimes some people are so blatant in their criticism of others it begs the question…
What is missing from this person’s life that they can be so mean spirited?






There is another 'blog that I shall not name. I have to say that most times I enjoy reading it. As a newcomer to sl, I find it informative about what there is to be offered to us on the grid. For me reading this 'blog is just one in a long list of sources for entertainment. I do not count on it for forming opinions, just as anyone here should form his/her own opinion, and not count on mine.
According to their 'blog, they recently went to a sim that offers a certification process, not DD but a different sim. I am not familiar with this sim, and have no idea about what is offered there or by whom.


However, the apparent issue was the fact that this sim offered certification.
Now, certification is defined as: A document attesting that a person or organization meets minimum standards or qualifications in a specified area. Usually issued by an organization with recognized expertise in the area.








In rl I deal daily with Professional Licensure, Registration, and Certification. Any and all of this documentation is only as good as the organization, licensing body, or in this case, group issuing it. Which is why a Curriculum Vitae is important. A Curriculum vitae is a summary of your academic and work history, A written account of one's life comprising one's education, accomplishments, work experience, publications, etc. It can also be defined as a personal history of one’s education, professional history and job qualifications with a strong emphasis on specific skills relating to the position being applied for.


BTW, This same "blogger" has just recently rolled out a certification of her own. (actually in RP) By her own words, she is not affiliated with any organization or Sim. Note- Certification is a document issued by an organization (meaning more than one person) Also noted that as far as I know she has never been certified in RP herself, or at least she does not offer that as a qualification.

She does, however, offer classes on a sim that sells products and slaves and is a Barker for the auction house owned by that sim. Though her classes are for free, the attendees are reminded aggressively (dare I say bullied?) to tip, by the sim owner and single female attendees are often approached to become stock and subsequently offered for auction by the sim. She also sells her services for L$1000….to be taught how to be or supposedly to act like a Dom or sub. Not that she has any rl experience, that she has ever spoken of. Her own submissive Ramo, failed to garner any bids, on two separate occasions, when offered on the block at that same auction house... Another former student taught in private lessons to be a submissive suffered the same fate at a different auction. (Not the best of recommendations, IMHO)

With that established, I would have to say that I understand why anyone that she approaches in the attempt to “pass through” their certification system would greet her with suspicion and derision. Now she threatens to squeak through the system in a guise of the intrepid reporter. It is, after all, "her job."

So now, we have a self proclaimed wannabe (see the March 14, 2009 posting of her 'blog) Without rl experience declaring a system she has not attended dangerous?


Maybe she is right…who knows?
All we have now are her words, born of her own twisted imagination.

Reflections ~ and lightning

Personally, there are very few women that I like. Mostly, I have found them to be sneaky and duplicitous. Yes, I said it; but I'm allowed to, I'm a woman too! I have always preferred the company of men, for the most part. My good friends in rl are like me; up front, and maybe a bit naive.
Sexually, I have always believed that I am mostly straight, not even with the slightest bisexual bent, but basically straight. I had come to believe that women lead men on by telling them that they will play with other women or that they are "bi", promising entertainment for the future that may or may not appear.
(See what I meant about duplicitous and sneaky?)

However, if someone has asked me if I am straight, bi...whatever...I have always answered, with this..."I am sexual, and my sexuality is usually expressed with men." On rare occasions, there is that unique woman that elicits the same response in me. I have to say, on the practical side, does it seem smart to eliminate half of the population from consideration because of a few preconceived notions of one's sexuality? Besides...for me, it is primarily about attraction to the person. (Mostly, that attraction is to a truly dominant person.)



~~Takes a deep breath and dives through the looking glass~~


When I was very new here on sl, I had come to Dark Den as a switch. While wandering around there, I met a slave girl named beast. She was very charming, and very clever...I was enchanted, and I remain so, as I have said in previous posts.
Beast has another side, that of La Presidente. I was afraid that La Presidente might be a different kind of person to the sweet and charming girl I knew as beast. The dark side, if you will. I was afraid that my previous encounters with beast might influence La Presidente to act in a manner that would dash my favorable impression. Though I was a bit intimidated by her, I was still drawn, and inspite of her frequent mention of my shoes when I was in a private residence...a deep friendship has developed.






All I can say is this...I am a very lucky girl. I cannot believe that lightning has struck twice; with two facets of the same person. There are parts of me that are blossoming.
I cannot find the words...

Home sweet home...


Nuff said?

Safe words


So ...

I have been working on my limits here on sl. One of the things that I had to remember is my safe word.

My safeword is "Mercy"

Interesting choice, some have said, because it might be taken as "merci" The french word for thank you.

I prefer to think it means, "Thank you, I have had quite enough, for now"

Here in SL, safe words are really meant to keep us safe, not physically... but emotionally... spiritually...psychologically. One can be as traumatized here as anywhere else.

Part of SSC is trying to keep that from happening.
More on Safe Sane and Consensual in a later post.

In rl I live in a RACK household. My Master is well aware of my limits and my mindset. These have been learned over time and the trust that I have is complete Hence, I have not felt the need for Mercy, nor has he expected to hear my safe word in a very, very long time.
I do have another problem. I slip into subspace so easily, it would be difficult or me to know that it is time to safeword. So there have been times when he was aware that we were at a point where play should stop, even when I was not aware of it at the time. Tell me, why would I not trust him completely now?

How does one stop that in SL? I am not sure that I want to. Just want to be certain that the person I am with is trustworthy and responsible.

Actually, that is good advice on both sides of the mirror...
