Chael/Grey and slavery

I called him today and said "I know you hate the word but I'm going to use it right now because of what I want to say.... I think you're a really good slave".

He replied, "I think so, too".

squee.

13 years of being a slave to me but hating the words "submissive" and "slave" and last month he acknowledged being submissive to me. Today he accepted the word "slave" as applied to him and took some pride in it.

I love the changes he's making in this and being able to talk about them more than vaguely (I was always vague and used different wording out of respect for his feelings... I didn't care what words we used so long as the relationship was what I wanted).

He always and continues to make me so proud.

Austin if not moving, then moving

We still have no word on when/whether we're doing a full PCS move in the next month, sigh. If we do, we could go anywhere in a very short amount of time.

If we don't move for some reason, then Chael and I are leaning towards me moving to Austin so that we're closer (and I get to nom on the awesome vegan food there). I want to stay in a city but want to be closer to him.

This means more distance between friends I care a lot about, but I could still visit them. I'll work out some schedule with them that I can maybe come stay a couple days here and there. We'll see what works for them.

I found some really nice apartments online for Austin, so am kinda excited about that. We'll see what they *actually* look like on visiting sometime.

Done

My friendship and relationships with Hillary and Scott are done. I'm not even angry or sad, just done. A bit relieved in some ways as it was becoming too drama filled for my tastes.

I tried today to do the right thing and return some of their sheets they left here and the mattress their friend Brian had loaned me through them, but even though Scott's car was there no one answered the door.

On other things, someone broke into Chael's GA house and we need to go later this month sometime to fix a bunch of things wrong... the door itself, the A/C unit to the central air that got stolen, the keyless lock on the garage door, etc.

I'm going to Floating World in about a week and a half and will see Patrick and others from Camp. Should be awesome fun. The classes look really good and some are by familiar faces, plus Fakir Musafar will be there doing a couple and a speaking bit on his life. Interesting.

So life is pretty good, despite some changes and the house nonsense. We'll take care of it and it'll be fine.

I'm feeling pretty good for me right now.

Awwwww

Chael is driving up to stay tonight with me. He has to go back tomorrow because he has duty Saturday. Bleh.

But it's SO sweet he's driving up just for the night. I think he misses me :D

We're planning to make pizza with the vegan cheese we found (Daiya brand, holy cow is it good... melts like real cheese and tastes good, too! Who'd've thunk??!!)...but I actually want to go to sushi. Hm.

Bad news: The GA house got broken into. Chael is pissed and understandably so. The house has been on the market 2 years and he's getting fed up with this realtor, the A/C recently got stolen and now the backdoor has been busted in. Neither of the last two are the realtor's fault, it's just part of the house sitting there this long. We need a new realtor and we're hoping he house is covered for all this. Doubt it, but hoping.

Updates

Tons of new posts added, transferred over from Fetlife journal. I'd been doing most of my writing there and needed to tidy this one up.
