Reading list...

Here's what I'm reading right now (aside from Illustrated Essentials of Musculoskeletal Anatomy that is):


The Marketplace [The Marketplace Series - Book 1] by Laura Antoniou

"Compelling, charged with electricity . . ." - Kitty Tsui

The first volume in the landmark Marketplace series, the series that set the standard for contemporary SM erotica. After Sharon, Brian, Claudia, and Robert are accepted for training by Marketplace representatives, they struggle to overcome their shortcomings; pride, selfishness, immaturity and perfectionism. Who among them will survive the training meted out by the rigorous and unrelenting Chris Parker? And who will uncover the truth of his or her own sexual need to submit? The first in the groundbreaking series, The Marketplace follows four inductees as they transition from their former lives into the world of the Marketplace. Guided under the firm hand of two slave trainers and their majordomo, Chris Parker, each of the novices struggle with and against their internal desires to become Marketplace slaves. For readers familiar with the previous edition, Antoniou has added additional material, including a sizzling short story that takes up where the novel leaves off!

but... but... but....

S.E. took exception to one point of my assessment. She thinks I DO get hurt easily but that I DON'T recover easily. Thus began a Private discussion, just S.E. and me... oh, and you now!

I said my assessment was correct, except when it came to certain people.
She was still incredulous: "I believe you, as I reread the statement - you ARE correct! It was not an EASY hurt - soooo, you have not EASILY recovered, soooo... statement is correct. easily hurt and easily recovered"

I said:
"It's like this ... I guess...
I do make "friends" easily... But I think it takes time to form REAL friendships (though some come easier than others).
It takes a real investment... In time, in emotion, in understanding...
I believe I put a lot into a real friendship.

My problem, I guess, is that I expect the same from others and SOMETIMES I get very very burnt by that. Not often, mind you... But sometimes.
You end up wondering why, if we were so close how can someone, just ALL OF A SUDDEN, drop completely out of your life and seem to not miss you at all??

Then, you step back and start to analyze things. You start to realize how WOUNDED (emotionally) these people are. Why didn't I see it before? Was I blind? A fool?

I've paid attention, lately, to the wounds that people carry. So many people are messed up, I mean really messed up. And I guess something in me wants to "make it all better". Maybe that's why I stayed married as long as I did.
Maybe that's why I want to be a massage therapist... At least then I can fix SOMETHING that's wrong with a person, for a little while.

As T said, it has to be someone important to me for it to really hurt.
So... Hurt easily by an friend/acquaintance? = no; annoyed? Yes; peeved? Yes.
That's easily "gotten over".
Hurt easily by a REAL Friend? Well now, there's the rub... I'm not often HURT by REAL Friends. So if it happens, yes you're right I DON'T GET OVER IT EASILY.

Oh my.... I think this is a Blog Entry... "

Know this, S.E. You are the best thing that's happened to me in a long time. I treasure our friendship and I will always be here for you. Love you!

October baby...

So, I was born in October. It was on a Thursday at 1:35 in the afternoon if you're interested. Anyway, I sent my Ya-yas my assessment of how I compare to the October entry:

Loves to chat. = oh yeah
Loves those who love them. = yep, and Woh be to those that don't.
Lies but doesn't pretend. = hmmm? I'll never tell.
Gets angry often. = not really.... peeved maybe

Easily hurt but recovers easily. = OH YES!

deltoids and quadratus and pecs...

and all those other muscles.... WHAT have I gotten myself into??

I haven't told you yet (though I have hinted) but in three weeks I start on a new path. I will be attending night classes at the Institute of Massage Therapies. I have my books already and I've been trying to study anatomy (concentrating on musculature). I hear that's the hardest part. Wow... I hope I'm up to this.

I've found several sites online that are helpful:
Human Anatomy Online
Bartleby.com
Medlineplus.com
University of California, San Diego
The Hosford Muscle Tables
The Study Stack
Faculty of Biological Sciences, University of Leeds
SEER's Training Web Site
Flashcard Exchange


and my favorite:

"Have I made a mistake?"

...She asks herself, over and over. What will come of this decision? What will come of this...menage a trois? Has she made him happy or has she lost him? All she has ever wanted was to please him.

She believes there is no guile in him, no duplicity... none at all. When she is with him, she sees that his heart is open, honest... seeking only to make her feel good. But, when they are parted, the silence brings her to her knees in fear.

"I cannot live without you." she whispers into the night, but he doesn't hear.

"the heart wants what the heart wants"

hours spent with you
pleasure... pain, rolled into one
both body and soul

anything for you, baby....

She asked me to post this for her...
is this a catharsis for you, dearest one? Would not your own blog be the thing??
Ah well, until then.... my place is YOUR place.
Love you....

Her very own words:

Anger and resentment can stop you in your tracks. That’s what I know now. It needs nothing to burn but the air and the life that it swallows and smothers. It’s real though, the fury, even when it isn’t. It can change you, turn you, mold you and shape you into someone you’re not. The only advantage to anger then is the person you become. Hopefully, someone that wakes up one day, and realizes they are not afraid of its journey. Someone that knows that truth is at best a partially told story. That anger, like growth, comes in spurts and fits and in its wake lays a new chance at acceptance and the promise of calm.

Then again what do I know?
