Up so early. I am tired. And I sat at Buddha belly at some god awful hour with Craig.

I just had an early morning session with a guy I haven’t played with in over 2 years. And soon Countess Leah (NYC) is coming to use the dungeon with her slave.

I have a dozen money orders to go do for some of my ebay items. I have some flyering to do for the Heaven & Hell/Fetish Party…if anyone wants free passes for this party let me know.

CALL 504-220-3770 FOR FREE PASSES TO THE FETISH/HEAVEN HELL PARTY AT SCARLETT’S ON THE 30TH.

The flogger I got in yesterday smells so good. Each time it swings through the air it is that scent of leather. The body bag has that delicious smell too. MMM. It makes me hungry.

Charlotte and I are making a mad dash to Reginelli’s for Baked Brie Calzones with Sundried Pear Chutney…Mmmmm.

What a wonderful way to start the day.

My new leather sleep sack…which is basically a type of fetishbody bag, is in. I am sooooo excited.

IU have 2 sessions tonight, let’s see who is the lucky one!

I had a nice visit from Countess Leah from New York today, with her slave. They are coming back tomorrow to use the dungeon, and I wil get to play with them a little bit. I have an early session tomorrow, so I have to wake up and get on the ball. I actually slept in for once today. I woke at 10:30 or 11 a.m.

I had a visit from the marketing director of Scarlett’s with flyers for the party I am featuring at Scarlett’s. I had a ymmy lunch at Juan’s and now I am struggling to get a nap before this next session.

I got a shipment of stuff today. I got over the door hangers for restraining, I got a new purple and black flogger, and also the Bottoming Book, by Janet Hardy.

I also have some shipments supposedly in at empty’s house, and I have “bammy” possibly coming over later after I have this session.

Ugh, I just hate stopping in the middle of what I’m doing to get the rest I need.

New Orleans Fetish Event Threatened.

With my heart, lifestyle and vocation being directly associated with BDSM I could not let the last few month’s turn of events go un-noted in my public forum. Fetish in the Fall, New Orleans’ first major fetish education and entertainment convention was cancelled due to local city government writing a letter to local businesses in opposition.

It is sad events like this that lead to the weak public presence of the New Orleans BDSM/fetish scene. Despite places like Bourbon Street, the tourists are shocked about how conservative our local BDSM scene really is.

I was a happy holder of full weekend pass tickets to Fetish In the Fall. This event was to be a great public service to the metropolitan New Orleans scene. There were so many wonderful educational lectures, venders with quality attire and toys, fetish galas to socialize amongst with like minded adults, and play areas to experiment with the new knowledge on safe play gained through the lectures of the day.

I was saddened to find out that this event was cancelled. I had been sitting on my tickets for over a month. I wasn’t upset that the tickets had been purchased…I was saddened because this was the first major event of this kind for New Orleans. The first extensive educational event, not just an event to show off, this was one that also informs.
There are periodic day workshops with local groups like NOBLE that do wonderful lectures of one or two speakers, but this would have been at least 11 workshops in a 3 day period.

Why did this happen?

Well, the Police Chief Congemi stated that his concern was for the local neighborhood’s family values, with the misunderstanding that this was “degrading to women”, and that these events would be “borderline illegal”. As a female and a Dominant in the BDSM lifestyle and even a professional Dominatrix, I can tell you that sex is not a determining factor in who gets degraded, and those who do get degraded really enjoy it. There actually seem to be far more male submissives than female submissives, although they are probably, in all actuality, equal in numbers.

Bob Hannaford also was concerned with the media attending this event and outing people that were in the scene who conduct professional and family lives who might have been upset by the exposure.

The Police Chief did not actively cancel the events himself…what he did was put the heat on hotels and business owners that were scene friendly. The event coordinator, Bob Hannaford lost the support of the hotel that was negotiating this event with him. The Kenner Police threatened to keep a scrutinizing eye on the event, deem acts to be illegal, and charge not only the consenting parties but also the hotels for any “sexual misconducts”. Other hotels were more forced than urged to not accept this event.

One of the points that I would like to make is that this event was to be completely contained with in the private property of one hotel. This means, that the local communities would have had very little interaction with the attendees of the event. They would have benefited by the food sales of the 1,500 expected participants, as well as the needs that the local drug stores would have met. These events were not to be held in neighborhoods, not in public, not on their school grounds, but in a hotel that was not occupied by other than the attendees of the events.

Why was this not held in New Orleans proper? The hotel that was booked for the sister convention of swingers, called Naughty in New Orleans, had been booked to capacity. Originally, we were to share the hotel for both events, but many of the fetish attendees (who probably were already going out of their way for expensive attire, and tickets to the event) were hesitant on the high priced cost of French Quarter lodging. This event would be better accommodated near the hotel for a lesser cost per night, and the hotel they had in mind was bending over backwards to get this account.

Now it has been declared publicly that Kenner has the right to refuse service to “fetishist”, “supposed fetishist”, and others with approval from their local police department and city government. The statement has been made that Kenner does not want “our type of people” in their family oriented city. I have news for you… we are already here. We are your sisters, your mothers, your wives, your husbands, your doctors, your lawyers. We are your neighbors…most of us are discreet due to these prejudices and persecutions against our lifestyles.

As a professional dominant I can tell you that even the spouses of many of us are unaware of our lifestyles. Most of us are very loving and respectable contributing members of society. We just have a taste for indulging our senses in a wider spectrum of sensation, pleasing our eyes with the visions of corsets and high-heeled boots. Most of us are harmless.

Tonight’s show was amazing. Of the 2 I have been in and the one I had seen previous, this was by far the best yet. The crowd was small this week, but the new skit we did rocked. It was sooooo funny.

I have already added additions to that skit for the next show and I have added and modified and tweeked parts of last weeks skit to rerally improve it this week. I am in a quarter of the show. There are 12 acts, one is a group skit.

I am so happy to be in it all.

Sadie says she is surprised how well I get along with every one, and that they had other performers in the past that really didn’t. I really feel at home. I missed performing regularly and rehearsing.

I have been getting less and less sleep.

It will be, yet another long day, another long night. Thyis is my second date with the Lil Beaux Peep Show. I can’t wait. I have an awful lot to do.

The person I saw a few times last week will be back today. They get hooked. Then I am supposed to have 2 other sessions through out the day, and that is between now and 8p.m. when I have a call at the club for the show.

I am really looking forward till tomorrow. Monday I look forward to the wind down, the bike rides, the chance to relax and read.

I still have a ton of stuff to do though. because next weekend is my Halloween play party.

I also got a call the other day to do a performance and party appearance at the Big Top for Immaculate Deception’s christmas show, December 20th. Busy busy busy bee.

Long day…Six Flags, then dressing in my impossible new corset dress. I had to lie down in the back seat and couldn’t hardly sit on a stool in it, but damn it was hot, especially with my 9 inch heeled oxfords.

I then made it home after the Vaudville Show at 735 to do a quick change, and then I dashed to the fetish party.

I was but a fly on the wall there tonight. I sat to the back of the room with “empty”, “denise” and Sean. I hadn’t seen “denise” as a woman completely dressed, and not in a very long time. It was cool chit chatting. I was tired, I was growing uninterested in the event, so I came home.

Today was another ebay day. Yet another pair of restraints came in. These ones are another type of bondage mittens. So I got 2 varriations of bondage mitts this week. I also got 2 more books for my huge BDSM library.

I think I am just about spoiled. But “just about spoiled” is still not spoiled enough.

I am so relieved to be home, and about to retire.

Tomorrow will be a couple of sessions, before I have to mad dash out and get ready for the next show for Lil Beaux Peep Show. I have a whole new routine to add to last week’s.

I had fun despite the whole cancellation of Geraldine Fibbers aka Cara aka Ethyl Meatplow show.

I spent the evening with my ex, wishing my current could come out and play. I am extremely happy that they really like each other and are mature and cool with their relationships (which is far more fun and less dramatic than the rest of the world).

In my lovers absense we actually bumped into one of my former lovers. He and I were in our flirtations while I was with the ex. The ex and I are always honest about our love lives. I really missed this old lover and his name had come up a lot lately in a lot of circles. Seems we have found our ways full circles to flirt and also in our friendship. He has really come into himself, as so have I and I look forward to hanging out more in the future and getting to know his wife.

I lead a charmed, unconventional life, but looking at what is conventional…I don’t think any of that works for me.

So tomorrow, the ex-boyfriend, the current lover and the slave boy and I are all off to hang out at Six Flags.

I am rather amused by the total lack of modern prorpiety, and the societal expectation that such a play list would be dramatic. Actually, they all have met and they all seem to get along, and it is just another day of me being a princess.

yet another day of Xmas from Ebay…I buy my tampons on there, lol.

I have a new set of thick leather ankle restraints and a vinyl red corset. Ah, life is good, good, good.
