The Lowdown

It’s been something of a whirlwind of packing and unpacking around here. He had a weekend off between trips and because we thought I wasn’t going to get to go, we just kind of laid around and enjoyed each other (wink wink nudge nudge). So I didn’t do any of the 3 weeks worth of laundry he dragged home for me.

At the last minute, I did get to go, though. We left Monday and came back Friday night. I had a lot of fun. He had to work, so I just sat in the hotel by myself during the day. I wasn’t bored at all. I propped myself up on the bed with about 10 pillows, my laptop and my coffee and pretended I was one of those pampered pillow princesses. ;) And then when he got done working, we went out to eat or went shopping or just hung out.

We had a lot of sex, too. Our room had this great little settee at the end of the bed that was the perfect height for various positions of fucking. Good times.

On our last night there we got to meet this girl. It was very cool. She comes across in person exactly as she does online. And she really is in denial! There she was, dressed the way her M wants (namely, a tiny miniskirt and high heeled boots in the snow!), weighing what her M dictates and eating and drinking what he says she can/or can’t, texting him for permission to eat this/drink that/when to leave (he wasn’t able to be there, sadly) getting permission before she did practically anything– and still, with a straight face, denying being a slave. Ahahaha!

Grrrl! You are so enslaved it’s crazy. Denial ain’t just a river in Egypt. ;)

Meeting people from the web is pretty neat-o. It’s interesting to see how far off, or how close, they are to how you imagine them to be. I think Master hardly ever comes across the way I portray him (and true to form, she said he was “fun”)… (which he IS, but, you know, I’m TRYING to build him a rep here and he keeps ruining it by being normal in front of people, heh)

She’d asked us who else we’d met from the web and my mind musta went blank because on the way home I was like, oh yeah! and we met them and we met them and… D’uh! We met magdala and her Master years ago(but I don’t know what happened to her; she disappeared). We met Frank and Leesa from Lessons Learned. We know Carrie and Taylor from A View From the Floor (and tried to catch them again but we missed connections). We know Vixen and Red, Jenfrog and her guy, Jade and W, all from camp. Lots of people from camp, actually, but I’m trying to think of those who blog(ged). Of course, all of our local peeps, like niya and company. I’m probably still forgetting people– Like Theresa, from Sake of Sanity! We met her!

The list of who I *want* to meet is much, much longer, too. Someday! :D

Anywho, so we got home late Friday night (with the added bonus of having to stop at the other house and fix a water leak for the renters on the way home. That was about a 4 hour delay) and then M had to fly out at 6AM this morning. Needless to say, yesterday was spent trying to catch up on his laundry so he’d have some clean undies to take with him. Now he’s gone again until Friday but worse than that is the suspicion that he’s going to be asked to go to Canada for a MONTH soon. Ugh! He can kick up a fuss about it, and sort-of refuse to go (sort-of meaning that the boss can insist, but it’s really NOT his turn to go!) but it’s awfully hard to turn down the kind of money he can make on these installation jobs. :’(

Other than that, there isn’t much going on here. I’m going to spend this week redecorating the downstairs bathroom- which really never got decorated at all so I’m not redoing anything, I guess. I finally decided on the eye-dazzling, seizure-inducing theme of brilliant teal-colored walls and zebra-striped decor. It’s gonna be awesome. :D

The kids are doing good. Jess is having a difficult time with this pregnancy (and I’m struggling to pull up any sympathy, really). She has hyperemesis gravidarum, and was finally given a prescription for an antiemetic after losing almost 10 pounds in less than a month (5 of those in less than 2 weeks). She probably should have gone in for some IV re-hydration and/or nutrition, to be honest. The medicine is helping, though not spectacularly. I’ll be surprised if she’s gained any at her next check-up, but hopefully she’s at least not losing, and isn’t dehydrated.

On top of that, she has a subchorionic hemorrhage, which is a pooling of blood between the embryo and uterus. It can cause pain and cramping (which she has and is how it was found), bleeding (she does not have), and increases the risk of miscarriage, etc. Most of the time, the body resolves it on its own, other times it grows large enough that bedrest is ordered. Right now, Jes’s is small and the doctor is just going to monitor it.

She’s just about 12 weeks along already. There’s no sense in denying that it’s coming. It’s coming whether we like it or not. :/

She did get a job (though I’m not sure how these two conditions of hers are going to affect the ability to work) and hopes to be moved into her own place by the end of March (I think that’s pushing it). I’ve stuck to my plan to divorce myself from her problems, and have taken a huge step back in Babygirl’s care.

I think some people got the impression that by divorce I meant abandon, which isn’t what I meant at all. I’m simply limiting how much of myself (and of M’s resources) I’m willing to expend on her. I’m never going to let her, or her children, go hungry or homeless, but there’s a difference between helping and doing. Before, I was doing. Now, I’m helping- and even that will be limited.

And so far, she’s doing fine. So there you go.

Am also got a job. She starts either late this week or early next week. She’s pretty freakin’ stoked, let me tell ya. I expect she’ll be moved into town sooner rather than later. With the talk of gas prices on the rise, and the distance she has to drive to school and now to work, it’ll be cheaper for her to pay rent than to pay for gas. There is no shortage of people looking for roommates in a University town so if the job goes okay, I bet she’s out of here before the end of the semester.

She’s thinking of changing her major-well, and her minor, for that matter. Currently, she’s majoring in English and minoring in Religious Studies. She’s thinking now of majoring in Sociology and minoring in Writing. Meh. It’s her life, her student loans, her decision. Seems to me her career options for any of those choices are about the same, yeah?

With B-man set on enlisting right after high school, we could be empty-nesters by next summer. Dude. Party at my place! You’re all invited. Srsly. I’ll make cookies!

Actually I make terrible cookies. I’ll make… something else. BYOB!

    Hey! What’s wrong with Canada? We’re friendly and kinky and all that. I am sure you would all get a warm welcome.

      There are a lot of Candians I’d like to meet. We just never get that way. Well.. he does sometimes for work, but I’ve never been. I don’t even have a passport. Do I need one to go to Canada?? Pretty sure I do. :/

  4. Theresa says:

    Kaya,

    I don’t know if meeting me counts; I wasn’t a blogger then, just an author. :)

    I’ll probably miss the party, Victoria AU is a lot farther away thatn Washington US.

    Regarding Am’s career choices… My sister did French translation and now works in the head office of a high street fashion chain. According to her interviewer a degree just shows someone can commit to a goal and is prepared to put the work in to achieve it. Unless it’s something specialised like business or something sciencey… the subject can be sort of irrelevant so she’s as fine as ever :)

    Glad you got a fun little vacation!

    I feel Jess’ pain, hyperemesis is not fun. I was literally throwing up right until I had the baby, all 42 weeks I was pregnant. As in, “Roll over, I’d like to check you.” “Uhh, ok. Can I throw-up first?” I lost about 19 pounds total.

    That shit is no joke. I wore sea bands and took zofran for my entire pregnancy. Also, if she goes 24 hours w/o being able to keep anything down she does need to hit the hospital or at least call her doc.

    thanks for the view in. especially on ms denial. the reverse of her view in on meeting you two.
