Congratulations MsC! Being a mommy is the best thing in the world and you'll be great at it :) My life right now is rather bittersweet. Some of you might have read over on the poly forum that my husband and I have decided to get a divorce. After 3 years of marriage and 2 children he's decided he can't deal with the poly thing after all. I am torn between being heartbroken and relieved. On one hand, he is a good man and I love him, and I love the family that we made together; I am sad and often cry for what we are throwing away. On the other hand, I am incredibly relieved to be out from under the oppressive hand of his constant disapproval and attempts to convince me I could be monogamous if I just cared to try. Since then, I've been keeping myself waaaaaayyyyyy too busy. I'm going out with friends, playing with my boys, getting more involved in the local community(play party this friday, woo!), and dragging the new UM all over the state just to sit and chat for hours with interesting people. I really need to chill out because I am still in post-partum recovery, but keeping busy distracts me from being depressed about the divorce, and my friends make me happy. I'm lucky to have many great friends, especially girlfriends who have my back in that special way that girls do. Also, I guess things are getting pretty solid now between me and my favorite boy. I see him regularly and he says a lot of casual things that imply he has every intention of continuing our relationship into the foreseeable future. He's unbelievably wonderful to me and I am convinced that his presence in my life is the universe's way of making up for how much the rest of my life sucks right now. I have serious feelings for him. . .maybe by next month's roll call I'll have confessed them to him and will have even more good news to report on that front. There are a few other boys in the picture, but so far none of them are as serious. I occasionally play with a college boy who is way to young for me and tends toward SAMmery (but I put up with it because he's adorable); I have no idea where that's going to go. An old college buddy of mine has come back into town and has the potential to become my new favorite cuddle whore. Also, he cooks. Let's hear it for men with crushes on Rachel Ray! This month is going to be all about getting up off my fat post-partum ass and building an independent life. I need to polish my resume, find a job, find a place to live, and get out of here so we can get this divorce started already. (The state of MD requires one year of physical separation in a no-fault divorce) It's a lot of work, but I am looking forward to being relatively self-supporting again, and especially to having my own place! Also on the agenda for this month is to get back on the horse with novel #2. I am such a slacker! Meanwhile, in internet-land, all of you here on the forums and in the chatroom continue to be awesome. I'm developing some little internet crushes on a few of you ;) Stay Groovy. Lady Grey over.

MsC I am so happy for you. Becoming a mommy was the best thing that has ever happened to me. This month has been uneventful and I like it that way.

thetammyjo -> RE: March Roll Call (3/4/2008 12:25:25 PM)
(fast reply to the general topic) I'm back from my third campus visit which I'm told is good for the first year on the job market in academia -- let's hope it or job number two come through with an offer. Then we'd be moving to Denver or to Boston. If not I guess I work on the paper for my May conference and turning my diss into a book. I have two weeks here to finish getting ready for Millennicon -- I hope some of you might be there because I'll be giving the first public reading of a new story and talking about my next collection of short erotic fiction, and running an RPG some folks who like power and authority exchange might find interesting especially if you are more into the sub side of things. Otherwise today I am a bum and just relaxing after my Denver mini-adventure. Time to stare watching season two of "Queer as Folks" (American version) on DVD I think too.

MaamJay -> RE: March Roll Call (3/5/2008 1:25:10 AM)
Not a lot changed here ... still searching for a sub, talking to several, but nothing more tangible yet. Jay is feeling really antsy though ... I need a sub!! Master and violet had a big discussion in Feb and sorted out a few little issues, so feeling good there. Still short of $$, some people still owe Me for work done before Christmas, it seems the bigger the organisation, the harder it is to get them to pay their bills! However Master and I are out "selling" Our rock duo, have 2 gigs booked (though not for a month or so) and have had positive feedback from others who have heard the CD with probable bookings to come. We realised it would take a while as some pubs and clubs book acts well ahead, but We didn't feel We should start advertising Ourselves till We had ALL the gear and were totally ready to go at short notice if needed! All the best to You MsC ... though as One who chose to be childless, I don't know if I should offer commiserations LOL! But no, I respect the choice of those who chose to procreate ... just enjoy the mini-Domme! Happy Birthday Lady Jag, glad it improved a bit in the second half. And all the best to everyone else in their endeavours ... good luck Tammyjo re the job too! Maam Jay aka violet[A]

Congrats on the pending birth. Children are soooo much fun. Then...they become teenagers.

ShiftedJewel -> RE: March Roll Call (3/5/2008 12:43:40 PM)
*I can't believe it's already March! I haven't been spending very much time online but I do stop by and read the forums... congrats MsC! You have soooo much to look forward to!* Well, for me, I was recently diagnosed with Diabetes and the Neuropathy that goes with it. It sucks but shit happens. My goal for the next few months is to get my sugar under control and to be able to get my riding boots on... spring is fast approaching! *Hopefully we'll be starting on the rebuild of my bike in the next few weeks... really jazzed about that! I'm getting new parts in the mail on a regular basis, it's like Christmas for me!* *And Jay... got my test results and dropped from an 11.4 to a 9.7... I'm getting there!!! Shooting for a 7.0! Sorry for the hi-jack, she knows what I mean.* *Jewel*

petdave -> RE: March Roll Call (3/5/2008 8:02:56 PM)
i spent half of February riding a motorcycle from coastal South Carolina to Los Angeles, and back (roughly 6000 miles). Aside from a convention i'm looking forward to on Easter weekend, i suspect most of March will be spent catching up on work [&o]

cloudboy -> RE: March Roll Call (3/5/2008 8:18:51 PM)
This month will live in bitter infamy at the time I had to put my beloved cat down. He and I have been inseparable now for 11 years. A neighbor of mine opined such times are the "price of love."

ShiftedJewel -> RE: March Roll Call (3/6/2008 3:17:43 AM)
*Soooo sorry for your loss cloudboy, been there, done that and it's definately like loosing a family member.* *Jewel*

AtlantaMistress -> RE: March Roll Call (3/6/2008 8:38:16 AM)
Ms C - thank you for the roll call...and your life is about to change SO MUCH - for the better. No matter what you have been told, there is no way to truly prepare for the overwhelming love you have the minute you hold your child in your arms. I am so happy for you, the joy you are going to experience. I wish you a most healthy delivery! Just remember, it goes by SOOO FAST - my little Goddesses in Training are 10 & 12, and it seems like just yesterday I was taking that ride to the hospital! I know you will be busy...but I hope you will let us all know when your precious daughter makes her arrival - height, weight, and that all is ok. A Picies girl...being one myself, I can tell you - you will have your hands full! February was a good month - my boy and I started performing out a clubs/fetish parties - I dance on his naked flesh in 5"+ stilettos. We got a great feedback after the first show - booked by the promoter for his next 2 events and given "cart blanche" and this Friday, we are booked for our first PAYING gig! We started a website to promote our performances, and the HD camera he ordered arrived yesterday (on my b-day) so we could start shooting our shows and other clips. We have so many plans, and are having so much fun as well. He is the same boy I met around the holidays - that I didn't want a relationship with outside of D/s...but somehow, I now see him 4 - 5 nights a week (can hardly sleep without him cuddling me) it has bled over into our vanilla lives - and is the best relationship I have ever had. We so enjoy the same activities - BDSM and vanilla, and it is the most open, honest relationship I have had. I have stopped waiting for the other shoe to drop, and feel so lucky to have the kind of love that you think exists only in mushy movies. I know I will spend my life with him...and in fact, on my birthday told him I would marry him before I turn 40 (this one was 39). He has let me set the tone and pace of the relationship, and was elated that I have finally let down my walls and accepted the love he has to give. I have also been working as the DM at a swingers club with a small dungeon every other weekend (although we don't swing), and that has been a blast! Having a Mistress as the DM has brought people who have open minds, but never experienced BDSM coming into the dungeon watching and even asking for spankings, to be flogged/whipped on the cross, and more. It has been exciting to introduce something I love so much to new people. I have been getting out into the community more as well with my boy, attending munches, etc. I have met some great people who I have learned from and can laugh with. We are planning our own play party next month [:D] LIFE IS GOOD!!!

pixelslave -> RE: March Roll Call (3/6/2008 9:59:07 PM)
Best of luck to you Ms C for a healthy delivery of the little domme! C-sections do have their advantage in that they're scheduled like appointments, they'res no extended labor, and very little waiting. [:D] I'll always remember the births and cutting the cords on both of my UM's. Hope your sub hub gets to experience all of the joys that come with it as I did when my two arrived. [:)] My sincere condolences to you cloudboy having gone through something similar when I lost my dog Tabitha at the beginning of the year. It was a very difficult time for me and things are still not the same. On a related note I've decided I'm ready to finally bring another pet into the house as a new member of my family to join the UM's when they're with me and provide companionship for me. We've found a 2 year old English Pointer at the local shelter who's being treated for heartworm disease that most would not consider adopting because of the illness he has. He came down with kennel cough right after we looked at thim and has been in isolation to avoid spreading it to the other dogs. He'll finally be out this coming Monday and I intend to pick him up on my way home from class that day and have been counting down the days. His ribs are sticking out and his haunches quite thin, but some puppy food should fill him out in a short time. He'll just need to be less active for a while as he recovers from the heart worm treatments he's had and the future ones to come. I feel as though he needs us every bit as much as we need him so it should be a good match. [:D] My classes at school have been keeping me very busy with very long hours at the computer modeling 3D characters and creating an animation that I'm working on as well. Unfortunately, I've been plagued by some files that have corrupted themselves on me for unknown reasons (typical of this kind of software) which has been very frustrating to me. It's causing me lots of extra work trying to sort them or redo what I've already done. I'm sure part of it is learning the "best practices" to use with this software which I've not yet figured out, but am very tired of running into the same problems such as this kind. [image]http://www.collarchat.com/micons/m13.gif[/image] Otherwise, I'm finding what I'm doing very rewarding to me but hadn't realized how far I'd fallen behind or things had advanced in the few short years I'd been away from things. I'm also learning that either I'm not picking things up as fast or the young kids are much quicker at it than I am despite my greater experience with other software that's similar but with a much different interface. However, it was pointed out to me that they don't have UM's or other things to concern themselves with. [&:] Volleyball season is also starting here and I'm the head coach of my oldest UM's team. That's more that I really want to take on right now. I did it in the fall and found it very rewarding to watch the progress the girls made as the season progressed. But right now, I'm feeling over-committed and overwhelmed with everything else that's going on in my life. I can't hardly wait for spring break to arrive the week after next so I can take the UM's camping and get a much needed break from everything that's going on! [:D] My ex also has announced she wants to move to Colorado with the UM's, which has had me rather stressed. My attorney assures me that the court is unlikely to allow her to take them with her, but I'm still concerned just the same since she's announced to them that she's going to marry her boyfriend who moved there last week for a new job. So, I'm trying not to worry and just wait to see what happens... In my spare time, I'm trying to make it to at least one of the local lifestyle events each week for some kind of social interaction. I had a great time at SPLF and got a lot from the sessions I attended. There's no doubt there's definitely a lot going on here! [:D] - pixel

BlackPhx -> RE: March Roll Call (3/7/2008 6:45:35 AM)
Many blessings on the happy event to come MsC, I know you will enoy being able to hold her in your arms. May she sleep through the night and bring you much joy. Happy belated B'day Lady Jag..Hope you shared out the Birthday paddlings with those who earned them. For me February/March has been frustrating.... The Master of my Heart has been out of town far too often and scheduling things that take the two of us has been frustrating. Little things like getting estimates on replacement windows...sigh. Lots of peeks at the profile, few nibbles and those mainly from people who don't read the profile. One day my sub will come...I hope, though it will probably be from meeting someone at a munch or club and not from here. Other than that, Dogs fine, cats fine, hands itchy for the feel of quivering eager flesh beneath my..ummm..nebber mind. See ya all on da flip side. poenkitten aka MC

pixelslave -> RE: March Roll Call (3/7/2008 6:50:59 AM)
With so much else going on, I forgot to add that I was raffled off by one of the organizations I belong to, not once, but twice. [;)] I volunteered in order to help raise money to pay expenses for an event we'll be sponsoring to bring Laura Antoniou, the author of the Marketplace Series to Dallas in June. I'll be giving a foot rub with reflexology to one winner and a full body massage to another another lucky winner. This will be something of a reach for me as I normally only give them to a Mistress I'm in service to. [&:] - pixel

MaamJay -> RE: March Roll Call (3/7/2008 8:31:53 AM)
Congrats to Jewel, good one, keep up the good work! I just got My treadmill ... huff puff! And to pixel, I hope your new dog will bring much joy. You deserve that. And crossing My fingers that you can sort out the matter with the ex! And commiserations to cloudboy, losing a much-loved pet is so hard. My cat will be 20 this year ... You just have to keep wondering how much longer she can go ... and I will be gutted when it eventually comes her time. And besides, when you lose a cat, you lose your owner ;-) I hope that when the time is right, you may find another puss to move into your heart ... never to replace the one who has gone before, but to bring you a new bunch of love. Maam Jay aka violet[A]
