I used to think prodommes were “real” while my Queen was only “pretending” to top me. I have since come to realize that my thinking was ass backwards, self defeating and have changed my point of view. My change of attitude has reaped tremendous rewards and probably saved my marriage.

I found the key was asking myself a simple question; “what’s in it for her?” Instead of insisting that everything revolve around me I now make a sincere effort to give my Queen loving and devoted service to the best of my ability. It is difficult to say who benefits most from the arrangement we have now. I think perhaps she does which is exactly as it should be! After all I am the slave! :-)

~ Excerpt from “A Birthday Goes Unnoticed“, written by Her Majesty’s Plaything

I enjoyed reading HMP’s entire entry but the line I emphasized touched me the most. Couldn’t all relationships benefit from a balance like that? Not knowing who benefits most seems like a wonderfully exciting, relationship-fulfilling place to be.

I hear you milling around in the bathroom, surreptitiously attempting to catch a peek at my body as I shower. Smiling, I wonder if I should pull you into the shower and take you right there, or if I should leave you where you are, wanting and aching.

Taking you. I’ve never been really good at denying that urge even if I am in the midst of denying your cock any pleasure.

Finish Reading “Step Into the Shower, Pet”.

“I’d come to the party alone that night, having cut my last sub loose for general weirdness. I’m sorry, but when you start asking me to fuck you up the ass with a ballerina Barbie, I’m going to say no.

I might be a vicious bitch, but I have standards.”

Just a little excerpt from the serialized story, “Cabron” written by “Mistress” at “From the Adventures of Mistress and Nakeysub“.  I stumbled upon her blog a while back and have found her to be an interesting and thoughtful writer.  We disagree on a few things which makes her blog all the more intriguing for me :)

I thought you might enjoy taking a peek.

As I lie here all comfy and warm, I find myself thinking that even though my day was long and I’m quite tired, it was a really good day. I suppose it’s that satisfied tired that comes with knowing you’ve achieved some of your goals.

Several days ago I resumed my workouts at the gym. Sometimes it’s difficult to find the time, but I’ve decided there are some things I am going to have to *make* time for and that’s one of them.

Today as I was lying back on the exercise bench, I began thinking about what a great place a gym is. I need several of those pieces of equipment in my house :) For example, that exercise bench. Having him lie his beautiful, naked body* back on that bench, tying his wrists up over his head, and teasing him. Fingers traveling over his body, watching him tighten with excitement, hearing his breathing quicken, feeling his cock stiffen. My body responding to having him there, helpless and aching. I can think of a couple of different ways he can please me, can’t you? ;)

I think I’m going to have to persuade Bill he really doesn’t need that workshop in his garage. I need my *own* “workshop” ;) Who cares if it’s his house and I work for him? There are just some things a woman has to have!

Along with the lovely fantasies and exercise, I made a concerted effort to follow through on one of my recent resolves (no, not a New Year’s resolution – those are simply anticipated failures for most people). I am trying to share the nice thoughts I have about people as often as I can. I’ve always believed people are too quick to say the negative things and are stingy about the good things. It takes so little to text, for example, and say “hey – I think you’re sexy and I’m so glad you’re in my life”. How often are most people told how sexy they are? Not enough, I’m sure.

I also had a funny run-in with Richard today. I was in the kitchen fixing dinner, bending over to pull a pan out of the drawer at the bottom of the stove, when he came in. Now I know it’s more lady-like to squat but hey – it’s a lot more fun sometimes to bend – it gives one’s male acquaintances something to appreciate ;) He stopped for a moment and initially didn’t say anything. Finally he remarked – in quite the sassy tone, I will add – that he would be more inclined to “submit” to being a kitchen houseboy if he knew the view was so good. Richard is so not submissive so his remark was cheeky to say the least (smiles). Without thinking, I tossed over my shoulder that his sassy self could kiss my behind. He laughed and I thought that would be the end of it. As I stood at the sink, I heard a motion behind me, turned, and found him kneeling on the floor, his lips inches from my bottom. “Only ask for what you want, Missy.” He didn’t cross the line and totally misbehave, but – the cheek! Sass like that cannot go unpunished, can it? Let the plotting begin.. ;)

And finally in the “what’s going on in Lady Julia’s world” department, I’ve been doing some work on a new site called “Simple Dominance“. It’s primarily designed for women who are new to the idea of dominance and feel a bit overwhelmed by that “what do I do now” feeling that strike most of us hard in the beginning and occasionally rears its head even as we mature as Dommes. It’s my hope that I can create a place where dominant women feel a bond and gather naughty, exciting, evil cowgirl-like ideas. There’s often a lot of competitive feelings among women, but that seems especially true for dominant women. While I do a lot of writing with male readers in mind, it would be lovely to have a place where the ladies can share ideas. I may even begin some type of forum if I can figure out where to add something else a little time consuming to my life.

At the moment there’s not much there because I’m trying to write fresh articles and not simply copy and paste what I’ve done before. If you are interested in sharing some ideas with me (whether you are male or female), I’d be happy to post any that seem as if they fit with my theme for the site. (I’m trying to stay away from the extreme as I don’t want to really frighten someone taking their first steps). Not everything submitted will be posted, but I will, as always, appreciate any efforts :)

There’s more to tell, but all that will have to wait for another time.

Sweet dreams :)

I’ve completed a site update on Mesmerizing Women of the Web.  Dead links have been removed and I’ve added 25 sites to the list.  (If I missed adding yours, you may write and let me know.)  I’ve also posted a new story on Femdom Fantasies and a little something on The Silken Tease.   I’m going to determine the RSS feed info for each of these and pass it on so I won’t feel the need to make a remark here about every new post.

In a few minutes I will be heading out for the day.  I’m spending time with my nieces, sis-in-law, brother and mom.  I don’t see this brother and his family very often so I’m looking forward to it.  The 8 year old is something else.  She has everyone wrapped around her finger and even when she wants to do something none of us particularly want to do, by the time she finishes smiling that smile, batting those eyelashes, and saying a few words, we all seem to be on board.  The last time she was in for a visit, we were talking about how fond she is of having her way and she remarked, “oh I know how to get people to do what I want” as casually as she would have said “it’s raining outside”.  Can’t imagine what she will be like when she is 30 :)

Thanks to everyone who has offered to help write for my sites.  I’ll be getting back with you sometime this weekend.  I am so excited about working with you :)

Oh.. and for those who are so sweet to read all the way to the end, I wanted to say – if you’re a fan of hypnosubmission,  you might want to pop over to my Silken Web site later tonight. Perhaps I will leave a little something for you over there. (No, not a new MP3 but something I think you may enjoy experiencing :)

So many of the blogs I used to read are abandoned.  The reasons are varied – “too busy”, “nothing left to say”, “it didn’t work”, “no one read what I wrote anyway” – and more.  For whatever reason maintaining a blog with a dominance and submissive theme seems to have lost it’s appeal to many.

My RSS reader contains a number of URLs, but most of them are either sex-related blogs or political rant types of blogs.   I find myself wondering, are the D/s blogs out there and I just don’t know about them?

So I want to know from you.  What D/s themed blogs do you read?

Also… to those of you who used to blog (I’d list you, but I’m afraid I’d omit someone by accident)… I miss you.  I miss reading about your lives.  Even if there’s nothing kinky going on in your life, I still miss your thoughts.

That it’s time to start blogging again.  I know, I know, I’ve said that before, but really – it is time.  When I don’t write for awhile I become quite restless.  It’s as if some thoughts can only escape through my fingertips – primarily things about which I am hesitant to speak without giving them serious contemplation.  As a rule I tend to be a sliding board speaker – most things that enter my mind slip quickly down and pass through my lips with no hesitation.  As you might imagine, this often creates sticky situations for me… the good kind ;)  and the bad kind.

Anyway, since it’s getting crowded up there, I’m mulling over a few ideas for posts.  For example, what happens when life becomes so much like a pressure cooker that an ordinarily always-ready-and-interested-in-sexy-things type of woman just cannot seem to find a way to get “in the mood”?  Another thought… do those egotistical shock jock-ish wordsmiths help or hurt their “cause” by spouting off so outrageously that people only read *because* it’s outrageous and not because they’re being convinced to agree?  Just a couple of the things I’ve been thinking about lately.

At any rate, I’m sad to say blogging is about all I have time to do right now.  I regret that I can’t respond to emails and usually cannot talk on the phone.  Almost all my energy at the moment is focused on my job and my family.  I promise though, it will get better.  It has to – I miss you all too much.

From Elle’s “About” page,

Hello and welcome to my blog! Who am I? I’m the girl next door, a nice girl, as normal as they get. About a year ago, I met a kinky boy. We’ll call him Boy Toy. Boy Toy’s been involved in the fetish scene, and he’s been in what some might call pretty fucked up relationships. He’s been spanked, gagged, tied, had his cock locked up, you name it. And he loved it.

Me? You could call me Miss Vanilla. Of course, this has changed in the last year, thanks to my Boy Toy.

So I thought I’d share some of my journey. Ok, I won’t pretend I’m the queen of kink or something. Some of you, when reading me, will think “pffff… that’s nothing!” However, considering where I was a year ago, I’ve come far. And many things occurred to me along the way.

I want to share some of these things with you. Sometimes it’ll be about a new idea I had or a toy I want to try. Sometimes it will be some of my thoughts in a certain situation. I might ask for your input. Whatever, anything goes. It’s my blog, after all. But one thing I do know, is that I want other “regular folks” like me to realize that there ain’t nothing wrong with all this dirty stuff. It’s quite fun, actually, and why the hell should we waste our lives worrying about what others think anyway? Let’s all be open to sexy adventures… Let’s unleash our kinky side. It’ll be our little secret ;)

As promised in her opening remarks, among the pages of Kink Unleashed you’ll discover an intimate portrait of a young woman’s journey into female dominance.  It’s a story she tells with the refreshing honesty of someone who isn’t out to prove that she’s perfect – just in love and working toward doing things they both enjoy.

For those who have an interest in hypnotic domination, you may especially enjoy reading of Elle’s experiences with using this technique on her Boy Toy.  She began speaking of it in late November and has mentioned their progress on a couple of occasions.

Well, yes, sure – he’s not showing his tush but hey, I can live with that.  I say Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Happy Birthday all rolled into one ;)

I’m not going to write much today because I’m a bit under the weather.  I need a Dr who makes house calls should there be one out there all ready, willing, able, and submissive ;)

There are a couple of things I did want to mention.  The activity in the comments section here has really been busy lately and much of what is said there is quite interesting.  I’ve added a feature to my blog that allows you to sign up for email notifications of post comments in case you want to easily follow them.  This feature will work even if you haven’t left a comment.   Click on the post title and then scroll to the bottom of the page to find the signup box.

Additionally, I’ve decided that I will publish anonymous comments.  The blog software doesn’t allow for that so in the spot where you sign your name – make up one.  In the spot for an email address you may put in someone@ladyjulia.net.  This will allow the comment to pass on through for approval by me.

Hmm… what else?

I know, I’ll end with a little humor.

Thanks, Pete M. :)
