July - August 2005
July 7 2005: Occasions Sunday: Happy Birthday, Nicky! Monday evening: I dragged a big pile of blankets up to the roof of my apartment building at sunset, and sat bundled up in them, watching the fabulous Lake Merritt 4th of July fireworks. Cold and windy, but I had a bottle of wine to warm me. Today: The two-year anniversary of the beginning of Mistress Yoko's blog. I didn't start mine until a few months later, so following the link that Nicky posted to Mistress Yoko's new blog on that fateful date two years ago was my first contact with Mistress Yoko... one-sided contact, since she didn't know about me until I started my own blog (i.e., this one). My first impression of Mistress Yoko, from her early blogging two years ago, was that she was smart, a little shy, and kind of sheltered and innocent. Ha! I certainly never would have dreamed that two years later, I'd live in abject fear of her displeasure and her diabolical imagination, or that the only sex life I would have would be the humiliations meted out to me at her whim! First impressions can sure be deceiving... This evening: Neige paid me another one of her inspection visits... humiliating as they always are, though fortunately not too long this time and with no special punishments or special instructions from Mistress Yoko. Passed the inspection (i.e., I was wearing my Hello Kitty panties and underneath them my privates were shaved smooth, as per Mistress Yoko's standing orders), and was allowed to orgasm. One learns to be grateful for small mercies.
August 28 2005: Here I Am Again... As we lapsed Catholics say, it's been a long time since my last Confession. Neige went away for about a month after my last entry, and then she was going to visit me when she got back, but she got sick, and then she had to work a lot... so tonight is the first time I've seen her since that last entry. She's here right now, basking on my bed with a drink, catching up on the comics I've bought since last time she was here. And I'm typing this entry as I've been made to type many other entries in the past: nude, handcuffed, and shackled to my chair. The funny thing is that I was going to finally be writing a new entry tonight anyway. I'd been thinking for a while that it was about time... and then, on Friday, Mistress Yoko posted this really thought-provoking blog entry, "Intersection of Worlds." As you can see if you check it out, I posted a comment to it... and it also got me thinking a lot about this blog, which of course made me want to get back to writing entries again... Also on Friday, I was exchanging emails with Nicky... with whom I had been writing back and forth all week... and Mistress Yoko's blog entry got us discussing the blogs of various friends (speaking of which, Ace has posted a lot of great entries in his blog this month), and each of us was complaining that the other hadn’t posted a new entry in weeks, and I told Nicky that I’d post an entry this weekend if he’d post an entry this weekend... and lo and behold, he posted a really big entry yesterday. So at that point, I knew that I had to write an entry today. And then, this morning, I got an email from Mistress Yoko, saying:
I guess she must have heard from Nicky that I was planning to write an entry if he wrote one. Anyway, Mistress Yoko’s email made me pretty nervous, of course! That was a risk that I hadn’t thought of during all those weeks of not posting: if I don’t keep Mistress Yoko amused, she might decide to arrange a little amusement for herself at my expense! So then I was really motivated to write! And then, just a few hours ago, I got an email from Neige saying that she would be paying me a visit tonight. At first I thought that Mistress Yoko must have decided to make good on her threat after all... but when I wrote back and nervously asked Neige about it, it turned out that Mistress Yoko hadn’t been in touch with her... Neige had just decided by coincidence that tonight was the night she was going to visit me. It was the hand of fate... like the whole universe had conspired to get me to write an entry tonight. As soon as Neige heard that Mistress Yoko might take an interest in tonight’s visit, she decided to come over right away, in the hope the Mistress Yoko might still be awake when she got here, and might have some special instructions for what to do with me tonight. So I’m logged onto Yahoo Messenger as I write this... but Mistress Yoko is on the East Coast, and it’s around midnight there now, and she doesn’t usually stay up that late... so it looks like I’m safe for tonight. After making me strip for the usual inspection (which I passed, of course), and teasing me a little bit, Neige secured me here in my chair right away... she says she wants me to finish writing most of this entry before she does anything else with me. My God, I’m going crazy with horniness... and I have been for weeks now! No visits from Neige for almost two months has meant no sex life at all for almost two months, since I’m not allowed to do anything sexual with anyone except Neige and Valkyrie (and Valkyrie still hasn’t made it back up here for a visit since she moved to the southern part of our fair state). Well, I’ve written a lot now... I think I’ll see whether Neige thinks it’s enough. Later: Neige was satisfied with what I’d written. She untied me and made me give her a massage, and then made me go down on her for a long time... and then, after making me beg a little, she finally allowed me to bring myself to multiple orgasms while she watched. Whew! I really needed that! Much to my relief, aside from teasing and taunting me, and making me wait all evening for those orgasms, Neige hasn’t inflicted any cruel punishments on me tonight. She says that she hasn’t heard anything from Mistress Yoko about how my behavior has been this summer, or what kind of punishments I might have coming to me, so she’s going to wait until she does hear, or until Mistress Yoko can join us via Yahoo Messenger on a future visit... until then, I’m reprieved and relieved. Whew!
August 30 2005: Words from Childhood 1 My favorite thing about Mistress Yoko’s blog is her “Words from Childhood” entries. She’s first-generation Japanese-American, and she periodically posts these lovely entries where she teaches her readers a Japanese word that was part of her childhood... she gives the definition, the way it was used by her family, and stories of childhood memories associated with it. You can find all of her “Words from Childhood” entries collected here. Well, I think it’s high time that Mistress Yoko’s fellow bloggers turned “Words from Childhood” into a full-fledged blogging meme! Hopefully this will please Mistress Yoko, which it’s always in my best interests to do... after all, they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... and flattery is the sincerest form of Lila not getting punished... I wasn’t raised in a family that spoke a foreign language, exactly, but I was raised by an Irish Catholic family in an Irish Catholic neighborhood, and both my grandmother and old Father M., the neighborhood priest, were bona fide Irish immigrants, and there were plenty of words and phrases in my childhood that aren’t too common in America. Today’s word, or rather, today’s phrase, is: Acting the Maggot “Acting the Maggot” means behaving like a no-good, dirty, lowdown sneak. My grandmother used it to describe men who she suspected of cheating on their wives, men who claimed to be too sick to go to Sunday Mass when they were actually just too hung over, and men who did anything else dishonest... I don’t think she ever used it to describe a woman. I remember her cautioning one of my elder sisters to keep tabs on her handsome boyfriend: “Be sure he doesn’t Act the Maggot on you.” Okay, who else has some Words from Childhood to share in their blog?
