Dominance and submission
I’ve recently met a woman who wanted to be dominated, and she thought I would be a good candidate for that. I agreed with her.
How’s that for an intro? 
As this blog is about my life, I, of course, wanted to write about it, but I’ve had some difficulty with going about it. I thought about creating an anonymous blog because I was uncertain how I could talk about something like this without getting myself ostracised by my readers and some of my friends.
But then I realised I care too much about what others think…
I’ve talked about sex quite a lot in the past, and I’ve talked about alternative sexual practices and concepts. So what else is new, right? After all, that’s what this blog seems to be all about!
The car I’ll be getting next year
Back in March I talked about upgrading to the HSV. The one that initially interested me was the HSV GTS, but over the past few months I’ve decided that the model below that, the HSV Clubsport, would be good enough. And then a video came out from Top Gear Australia that made me decide I wanted something slightly different.
Watch the video, and you’ll see what I’ve decided I’m going to get for myself.
And the story gets older…
I’ve just unpacked some boxes of books that I haven’t looked at since moving back from New Zealand in early 2007. These include some old journals that I used to keep, which date back to 1991, maybe even further back than that…
The paper notebooks are starting to get really mangy, so I’ve decided to transfer them into this blog.
I have two questions:
- Would you read my old, old journal posts?
- What new category should I put them in?
Please tell me your answers in the comments below. Thanks!
Moving towards my authentic self
Acceptance
When I went to a ‘find your purpose’ seminar a month ago, one of the things that I got from it was that I need to practice acceptance in order to move forward with my purpose. Acceptance has been a problem in my life. I have trouble accepting other people, situations, or even myself. I have trouble accepting the world for what it is, and want it to be different. I have trouble accepting myself for what I am, and want to be different.
While wanting things to be different can be a worthy desire, it prevents acceptance of how things are right now. We want change because ‘how things are’ makes us unhappy. We don’t want to be unhappy, so we want things – and people – to change around us.
What we’re really doing is avoiding responsibility for our own perceptions and beliefs.
Social Media additions
If you read my blog posts via RSS reader, or get them sent to you by email, you might not notice what’s happening on my blog. Go on, have a look.
I’ve added a small graphic to the top right of every post, underneath the comments icon. It says ‘Retweet’, and allows you to do exactly that. Clicking on the icon will allow you to retweet the post via your Twitter account. So if you like it, share it!
A couple weeks ago I started incorporating photos into all my new blog posts. These photos are taken from Flickr’s Creative Commons photo pool. They’re photos that are made available for the public to use, for free. So every post will have a photo included in it. Just to spice things up a bit.
