There is a little game I still play
Where I close my eyes and fade away
In this special place you see
There are only two people - just you and me
When my minds eyes journeys to this place
I realize then my mind is still in that same space
And I then know in my heart
that though we're not together, we're not apart
I still care, I am still concerned as I always will be
I still hold myself responsible for your happiness and safety
It wasn't still isn't about for me either about some silly game
We touched each other and things were never the same
And then my eyes open and I realize
I still care as I always have, and as I always will
If by holding and caring I could take away an ounce of pain
I would do so without hesitation over and over again
So my friend, companion, and love whereever you go or roam
Within my embrace you'll always have a home
Never think even at my angriest I don't care
When you think you're not loved, I'll always be there

Its been a bit since I've blogged--combination of lack of time and too many things going on--and too little time to assimilate them and file those happenings properly in their proper context. At the end of the day tho--if I understand "blogging" correctly-this is where one writes down all the things that are momentous that we wish to share.
As I look at the last month or so since I last posted--a tremendous number of changes have taken place:
1) Bondage Playground the SIM that Ember and I spent so much time remaking, was forced to close due to financial impact--was a sad day--but we take away from it many memories--if nothing else my favorite munchkin learned how to build and terraform--always a good thing.
2) We moved GEL--we're now located on our old homestead --so far we've had good traffic--and good sales. What has been most impressive to me frankly is watching Ember remake the SIM herself--when I think back to a year ago--sometimes ( don't tell her this)-I stand in awe and amazement. A year ago a voice in the back of my head told me that underneath the attention grabbing little girl before me at the Bondage Ranch held hidden potential--I'm now starting to see it--blame it on the late night or the wine I've had earlier--but I am so bloody proud of what she's learned that I simply bust at the seams (not a wise thing-seams are the only things holding up my pants).
In the sky above our new place you'll notice the mini-sky dungeon--yes--New among others have moved their base of operations to our little hole in the wall--and we couldn't be happier.
If you look off to one corner--you'll see our latest addition--the 3 story beach house with 612 animations (yes we counted--not 610,not 613).
3) A certain someone has a new laptop on the way-----I made a promise a year ago--and I never break a promise to someone important to me.
4) Probably the most significant--Em and I --and I post it here because nothing else matters --did actually unpartner for about 8 hours. Why? short answer is I lost my eye on the ball and forgot why we're both here. I don't make mistakes twice. Do I fail in life sometimes--yip--do I fail because of lack of effort--not when its important.
There have been some other changes afoot--and I'm unsure of their import or their impact--so I'll reserve comment until the next time.

Once you've been mastiff
One of the delights in our lighter moments is experiencing and playing with limits; Further one of my enjoyments is finding new and different ways to surprise my little toy.
On a recent excursion I strapped on her blindfold (*GEL Products 200L buy buy--must feed Ember's Laptop Fund) and we went sim hopping.
The blindfold contains a WORLD option that shuts down all mapping and identification as well as any identification of other avis--further during these times we shut down voice so Em has no aural or visual clue as to what she's doing.
Our latest little outing took us to 4 different sims--sometimes a picture says a thousand words--you decide. For those with subs; never underestimate the thrill of the unknown.
And by the way-no animals were harmed in the making of this video.

A master's work is never done
Recently my favorite SL addiction and I went through an exercise of creating our creeds--essentially spelling out exactly our commitments to each other. The details are our business-however for those who spend their S/L looking for one night stands and short relationships--I strongly encourage you to follow a different path; every day the life I spend with my little baby girl becomes deeper, with more and more layers to enrich the experience.
As we travel through this life-- (going on 10 months now!) I have found that I for one am learning more about this D/s lifestyle than I ever imagined in my 52 years of existence on this earthly plane. Further I'm finding the true meaning of a phrase I have heard multiple times--and until this time never understood--that a D/s relationship calls for more honesty and communication than any other relationship regardless of reality--for my part I continue to thank whatever gods exist that I choose to say hi to a free-spirited wench at Bondage Ranch so many months ago.

On the 8th day God said--let their be blogs
For the last several months a certain very important sub in my life has been suggesting-in her own subtle and inimitable way, that I should begin a blog.
For the most part I've avoided the notion--primarily due to the desire to save my fellow man (and woman) from the meanderings of a slightly over the hill Second Life miscreant....however after a great deal of cajoling I finally decided to place my foot into the waters of the Internet--after checking of course to see who is upstream pissing in it....
9 months ago--to the day--Ember and I joined (translated she came over to my private land and bitched and yelled til I finally told her to clear her collar)--at the time I had a certain distinct philosophy of being a dominant--which essentially amounted to setting a direction, providing advise, and if the sub didn't like it--the EXIT door was clearly marked.
Make no mistake--After 4 1/2 years in this reality I'm perfectly capable of using most common collars and cuffs that populate SL (btw did I mention we're building a set of our own to foist upon the market?--buy buy buy...) but frankly any such Second Life devices are roleplay-its the person's mind I want to leave some traces on....and the only way I know how to go about doing this is by being as attentive as possible and looking for ways to help/improve.
The downside to this approach is that eventually I'd get burned out, the sub would become bored, "something" would happen and we'd part ways.....welcome to Second Life where the feelings are just as intense--and emotional entropy progresses that much more rapidly because of it.
After 9 months--for the first time--not only am I not bored--I eagerly look forward to the next curve on the path ahead--we've struck that delicate balance I strove for--two individuals who can enjoy and share this reality-and continue to push and teach each other....so to my baby girl, my partner, my sub, my best friend--I look forward to what we will create together. We share everything completely and without hesitation--and I can't imagine it any other way.
Anyone who knows me--knows us--is well aware of the fact that we are engaged in a number of things--when I looked back at the last 9 months I realized we'd accomplished more together than I have in the last 3 1/2 years of SL--
* Rebuilding the Bondage Playground
* Founding our *GEL* Product line (over 80 products ranging from RLV/Bondage gear to clothing)
* Assisting with the Adult Hub
And for those who believe that we're all about business--
* We RPed a pregnancy (twins-go figure-however I'm refusing to pay palimony)
* We went on a hell of a lot of hunts, sim hops (see Em's blog)
* And yea--we're even taking classes on how to become better dom and sub to each other--why? because we both believe the other person deserves our absolute best--and this relationship is special to us both.
I believe that the most important thing in SL to keep a relationship fresh is to continue to set a plan--so hold onto your hats more in store but we plan on
* Marrying (rlv is a wonderful thing--)
* Learning Mesh
* and founding a SIM to allow Ember to finally unleash her own special vision of how to help others (more to come on that)
So--to a year ahead with dreams, plans --we look forward to continuing to share our lives with you all.
