Pinup girl and lotus

Two more recent temporary cuttings done on Chael:




There is also video of me doing the pinup cutting available on YouTube and also on my Fetlife Page.

Occlusion, supplies, Chael and friends

So, with the tax return money I've been sorting and organizing my bedroom closet and making my bedroom into a playroom (since I never used it as a bedroom anyways). This includes a lot of buying of supplies, cheap furniture, and having to find a solution to the Stuffed Animal Problem.

As I've said in past posts, the room and closet are coming along nicely. I'm very pleased with the progress made.

I've ordered a lot of supplies for my sharps work and been learning the new stuff I get... for example, I bought a new topical anesthetic which *said* it didn't need to be occluded to work. Liars. Just like Emla, Super T needs to be occluded for about 1.5 hrs before deadening occurs properly.

Frustrating. But! In my purchasing I found some occlusive medical tape/wrap that will solve the occluding issue (it's always a pain in the ass when you have to do an area larger than 5X5 or so).

I also got some anesthetics for use on open incisions and also some with vasoconstrictors to reduce/stop bleeding. Chael bleeds like a stuck pig when we cut so I found these needful.

I have another adorable red sparkle and steel box coming like the one I already have. I'm trying to get it so that everything for a single scene will fit in the smallest amount of baggage possible and the first box holds almost everything I need. A second will easily cover the few items that don't fit and all will be in a small, tidy, neatly organized space. Much better than having to dig through my whole sharps bag for the things I need...

Will still need to bring the larger bag for my extra needles and such when doing larger or multiple scenes, but for one regular one I just pull out two red boxes and a sharps container and I'm ready to go now!

Lots of other smaller things purchased to make my playroom sharps-play friendly (more Technicare, a Purell dispenser, new containers for my hat pin ends, more sharps containers since mine are getting full, etc.).

Also, unrelated, I bought a gorgeous purple pair of vegan steel-toed boots. Growr.

Chael gave me his cold and fever. He got well and last night it hit ME. I've been using Zicam, Claritin, homeopathics, and guzzling orange juice (which kept me up all night peeing). I'm feeling a bit better already, though, so it seems to be working.

We've otherwise been having a great time. Hung out with LadyHillary and AbusePainToy the other night for a bit and also had dinner together, been running errands and putting my playroom to rights, visited his mom in Houston for a day, and done a lot of laying around cuddling and sexing.

It's been a wonderful time on his leave. Today is Chael's birthday, tonight we go out to see Henry Rollins perform his spoken word at the nearby Lakewood Theater.

Tomorrow night I'm leaving him home alone for a little bit (he doesn't mind, he'll just snooze and play video games) to go see MsKitty and BoiJen at the SPLF mixer. I'm very excited, it's been a while since we've all seen each other what with states between us.

Also, took on a new bottom, Redeye42011. We have played a couple times and been chatting it up on text nearly constantly. We seem to be a good fit and get along quite well. I'm excited about this, too.

I'm still seriously considering the porn thing, just everything is on hold at the moment as I focus this time on Chael and me. So if you're interested in being in or helping with creating, please talk to me! So far, I've a couple of partners in crime but we could use more folks who are happy, good energy, that we know and will make it a fun experience.

But I'll start being serious about that and other things in another week or so, after I'm home alone again. (Chael can't participate due to his job so no working on it til he's gone)

Jonesy cat is on all kinds of meds to keep him eating. He has kidney disease and has to get sub-cu fluids twice a week and be given Pepcid, Mirtazipine and liquid Valium whenever he stops eating to get him started again. But despite all this, he acts perfectly fine... not at all like a sick kitty. So I just keep taking care of him and he keeps being his kittenish self, despite his 13 years.

Anyway, this has gotten long. The End.

Buddhist thunderbolt

Am having a wonderful relaxed time with Chael while he's home on leave. We've done a lot of fun and practical things.

It's destroying my sleep schedule, though, lol. I've had one hour of sleep and now am awake again while he snores away. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to bed soon and pass back out. We'll see.

We've done 3 cuttings on him so far and here is a picture of the most recent:



Tomorrow we put together cheap furniture and my suspension rack in my bedroom. I'm wondering how it's gonna fit (I know it will fit, but how well and how overwhelming it is is a worry).

Mohawk and completely random stuff

I miss my mohawk. A couple of times now I've had to stop myself from shaving my head again to one.

But, I have plans for a little bit longer hair and it's too cold right now for bare scalp, anyhow (for me, at least).

But, again, darnit I liked how I looked and felt with it. So, tentative plan is to keep growing out my hair and fiddling with it, then go back to the mohawk when the heat here sets in... because I *really* can't handle all this hair during the heat after knowing how comfy having it cut off was.

And by then, the sides and back will be nice and long for my mohawk.

Yes, I'm a little punchy about now. I am so tired.

Only 2 more days til Chael starts looking for a plane flight!!!

Oh, and I found a site online that sells nighties, pvc, and stockings for bigger girls so I plan on getting some stockings soon (a few pair as I rip them like nobody's business) and maybe a cute PVC shirt or jacket or something.

Also, I bought some swatches of vegan "leather" for Quin to look at and see if he can make me some gear out of the stuff (I already have a wristband made of it that is rather basic but nice). I'd like to start switching over my BDSM gear to vegan-friendly stuff.

I'll keep my leather goods I already own, of course, and use them til they fall apart; then, I'll replace items with preferred alternatives one by one. But, it would be nice to get some paddles and collars and cuffs and such made now.

Heck, I may have him teach me very basic sewing of (faux) leather so that I can make more fashion accessories like my bracelet. I need a few loooooooong belts of various looks and I can't find any in the sizes I want (I want them long enough to sling around my hips loosely, not go around my waist).

Ooooooo, and I found some pretend-leather airborne style boots and a couple other higher-calf styles at veganessentials.com that look yummy. But that'll be a while before I purchase any of them as they are Expensive!

Also, Chael's and my tax refund is quite good this year and my half will be going towards finishing organizing my closet and bedroom (not much money needed there, but tax return makes it easier) and then getting some microdermals or/and a tattoo. Maybe instead of the tattoo I'll see Lady Shivers about branding the skull and crossbones on my leg that I want... Decisions...

I'm rambling again due to the tiredness. Just trying to stay awake. Shutting up now.

Needle Planning

I've been sketching out some designs for needle work. Some will go smoothly, some ideas I had to dump (at least til I can find a better way for them).

I enjoy working with feathers, flowers, beads, et cetera but am focusing more, currently, on the shapes allowable by the needles themselves. Geometrics, swirls, etc. All the variety that can be done with little straight lines lol.

Also if anyone has used Super T Deadener I would love to hear reviews. Does it need to be occluded, like Emla, or no? I can't find anything that says and I'm hoping __not___. It would make life so much easier.

I don't usually use skin deadeners for needle or scalpel play, but on some bottoms or when planning to do many, many needles or cuts it's helpful; the bottom last longer because they don't feel most of it. Not useful when they __want__ the pain, but very handy when art is the goal and not sensation.

I'm also considering using needles for their after-marks. Where the design of the needles themselves isn't important or the goal, but how the wounds look after they're removed. I'll have to think on this some more...

And I got a whole bunch of supplies this month, so I'm happy. Gauze by the pound, a few hundred needles, a new organization box, several staplers... lots of goodness. So now I have my pack full and also have some storage backup in my Sharps/Mods Shelves in my bedroom.

Arm staples

February looking forwards

February seems like it'll be a good month for me. I have 4 potential play partners for sharps, 2 good friends coming in to visit while at SPLF, 1 slavegirl moving to the area that I'm going to see if we clique, and biggest and best: Chael is coming home for mid-deployment leave.

So good things.
