Wow, the trolls are coming out in hoards this week. It's like Pokemon X in here. (If you get that joke, I just want you to know you are awesome.)

Renaissance Festival all day, Ground Zero all night, damn my Saturday is going to be fun! 

I am starting to open up more and more to the idea of age play. I am still not big on the sexual side of it, incest gives me the willies and diapers are a massive turn-off, but I have always been a very caring, maternal type. Yes I can be harsh if need be, but I much prefer a gentle touch. I enjoy many childish things, like cartoons, stuffed animals, and coloring. I would be happy to indulge someone who sought that type of thing in play. I think I would prefer someone who had a Little side of four at the very least, and preferably somewhat older. I would also strongly prefer if that person could sort of put their little side down for a nap when need be, put on their big girl hat and be an adult. In other words, I’m not looking to take care of someone in a childish manner 24/7, but I’m growing more and more interested in the idea for play.

In other news, I am still looking for a roommate. I am also still very keen on the idea of finding a Domme to join me and my boy for a session or two, but still unlikely to be actively seeking one. I figure if someone is interested they will let me know, I don’t have time to wade through countless Findommes and fools.

This is something I found on a couple other profiles here, and thought I would share. I decided to move it from the body of my profile and into a journal entry as it is rather long, and makes my profile seem a lot more intimidating than it has to be. 

It has nothing to do with me as a Domme, but it's good advice for anyone out there, especially newbies. Basically this is how to tell whether or not a Dominant is worth giving your time to, or whether they are, as the writer calls it, a Horny Net Geek (HNG). Yes, believe it or not, as a sub you DO have the right to tell someone who you don't think is right for you to kindly move on. And just because someone has "Dominant" as their profile orientation does NOT mean they are automatically worth your time. (I have added some of my own thoughts in brackets after a couple of these.) Also, while the content while the original author was male and speaks about males from a male's perspective, I feel like it extends to any person, male, female, trans, or whatever else, who calls themselves Dominant. The Acid Test! Test #1: When in doubt, throw it out! Don't waste your time with people that make you feel uncomfortable. Even if the guy was a real Dom, if his personality makes you feel uncomfortable, he's not going to be fun to play with. Test #2: "You'd better call me Sir!" is the mating call of a HNG or control freak. Real Doms don't have to ask for titles, we earn them. Most real Doms will say things like "Please, call me Mike..." Test #3: "I want you to take my collar before you play with me." This is another common demand of fakes, most often made by control freaks. They have to isolate you from other people and their advice, and sometimes a little ole "cyber-collar" is just the thing! Cyber-collars are worth less than the leather required to make one. Test #4: If you get an Instant Message that says something like "On your knees you [slave, slut, bitch, whore, etc.]" This person is an HNG. Use some common sense here. Why waste time with somebody that's not even polite? There's a time and a place for these endearing terms, and it isn't online! Test #5: "I don't have to answer that question!" or "It's not proper etiquette for you to ask a Master that." These are examples of some the dangerous lies that control freaks and snerts use. This is the Acid test I personally think is the most important! A Dom had better be ready to at least try and answer every question you have, and honestly at that! It's literally your ass that's on the line! Never forget this! Test #6: "It's my way or the highway!" or words to that effect, are the mating cry of the common control freak. Doms can have limits too, but it's your limits that count FIRST. Don't let any would-be "Dom" tell you differently. Don't let any of the wannabe subs tell you differently either. Where Male Dom/fem sub play is concerned, it's always lady's choice! [I slightly disagree here, only in that I think that ANYONE'S hard limits should come first. If either party seriously does not want to partake in something, neither should pressure the other into such things. And trust me, it can come from either end.] Test #7: Don't bother with online collars. Don't make decisions about a prospective partner based on his online play style. It's a very simple test if you think about it: Would a real-life Dominant waste much time on cyber sex and cyber domination? Please take my word for it; The answer is no. Forget it, once you've done the real thing, cyber is just too damn dull. Test #8: Ask your prospect if he's ever made any mistakes during a scene. If he says "no," run for your life! If he says, "very rarely," at least be suspicious. Everyone makes mistakes, even if they are experienced and skilled. Sometimes submissives have limits they don't even know about, and even the most careful and skilled Dom in the world will trip over these occasionally. Remember, according to our good friends of the Christian faith, the last perfect guy to walk this planet got nailed to a tree for his trouble. So expect competence, but not miracles. Test #9: "I'm a [bank president, captain of industry, combat photographer, self-made millionaire... yadda yadda yadda.]" Wouldn't it be nice to meet a rich Dom too? Sure it would! But use some common sense. How many captains of industry have hours to spend in an AOL chat room? Also, think about this personality profile; If this super successful, always-in-control person is really into BDSM, he's likely a submissive! Worse yet, it could very likely mean he is a control freak. I have met a lot of submissives that fit this ambitious profile, but not one Dom yet! Test #10: "I'm 33 years old, and I've been a Master for 15 years." Gimme a break! What are the odds? When you ask about a Dom's level of experience (and it's a good idea to do so) remember to do the math as well. 18-year-old boys don't care about the intricacies of BDSM; they want to get laid. Trust me on this one Ladies, I was an 18-year-old boy once! I personally believe that people do become what they are (be it gay, straight, Dom or sub) very early in life, but it takes maturity and training to be a Master. What are the odds a person became a Master when they were still using Clearasil? Test #11: Ask for references! Especially if he claims to be "very experienced." Talk to the references on the phone. Lots of HNGs have female screen-names set up to act as "references" for them! I notice that a lot of newbies seem to have trouble with this concept. Which is understandable since in the vanilla world it's considered rude to talk to a guy's ex-girlfriend. However, in the BDSM scene it's the opposite; experienced Dominants should accept and accommodate this kind of request gladly. Test #12: "I have three real-life collared slaves right now, but you can't talk to them." OK, when you consider the ratio and all, this sounds possible. What makes this an acid test failed (and failed miserably at that) is the last part. I have met couples (and even triads) that really were looking for an extra person to add to the mix. This is not uncommon at all in the scene. But these couples were looking together. If a "Dom" has anyone already collared to them, you probably ought to talk to her first! Test #13: "I don't need safewords." Well of course he doesn't! If he said this he's likely a snert and therefore he's never really been in a scene! Of course he might be a predator too, and then he wouldn't need safewords either. Need I say more? Test #14: "My slaves trust me to set their limits for them." If you hear a "Dom" say this it's most likely because these slaves only exist in his mind. Or worse still, his "slave" is simply the victim of spousal abuse. Even so-called TPE (Total Power Exchange) and other sorts of 24/7 (i.e. full time) BDSM relationships should involve careful and thorough negotiation. Test #15: "I'm married, my wife can't know about us" If I have to explain this one to you, you've got problems. I have played with many married submissives in my time, but only with the express permission (and more often than not, participation) of their husbands. Safe BDSM requires complete honesty. You can't build a good scene on lies. There are plenty of people that will be willing to tell you differently; but please note, they will all turn out to be adulterers (and hence, liars) themselves. Test #16: Real Masters/Mistress's are not required to negotiate. That's a bullshit line if one was ever told. In the beginning, everything is open for not only discussion but negotiation. If you come across this one, run like hell. [This one I take to heart soooo much!!] Test #17:Insert your own Acid Test here: You will learn much from your mistakes and missteps. If you form an online contact with a "Dom" that falls through, analyze why it fell through. Don't make the same mistakes twice if you can help it.

Newsflash, dear ones. I know my profile is long. I don't care. If you can't even read the portion on top that has to do with what I am seeking, then kindly don't bother to message me. Reading is just about the easiest thing a human with half a brain or more can do, and if you can't manage that one simple task then you are certainly not someone I want to waste my time with. 
Plenty of people have taken the time to read it, and most of them are people I still keep in regular contact with and enjoy talking to very much. We all have things we prefer and dislike. Intelligence and the ability to read and write is something I absolutely must have in any sort of companion. 
I don't care if you don't bother reading the bit on the bottom about HNGs, that is entirely up to you. 

Can I politely ask that if I haven't spoken with you much (or at all yet) and you want to talk to me, I would very much appreciate if you would try to create a conversation. I'm not trying to be rude, but I just don't see a point in having this same basic exchange over and over.
"Hi."
"Hi."
"How are you?"
"Fine thanks, you?"
"Good."

I mean, no offense but you contacted me, so please try to have somewhere to go. You are welcome to ask me questions, and I will at least try to avoid one-word answers. But if you come to me saying hello, I'm sorry but I am not going to force a conversation or go back and forth with one-word messages for an hour. I'm always happy to have intelligent conversations with people. I'm not asking you to write me a novel or anything, but something more than the above would be great. 

That said, I will admit that I've been told I come off as intimidating, and I guess I am ok with that. Hopefully it's helping keep a lot of the wackos at bay. However, if you are a decent, sane, polite person, I hope you will muster up the courage to say hello, because I promise that as long as you make an effort to be nice, I will do the same.  

Ok, don't judge me here, but I am genuinely curious...

If you speak Spanish, when you are talking to your Dominant do you use the formal "usted" instead of the informal "tu"? Honestly, I'd love to hear from someone on this.

I'm sure a cheesy joke could be made that a good sub doesn't talk to their Dominant, they just obey... but I just beat you to making it. :P 

Is this a late April Fool's joke or something? Seriously! I was doing so well, and now today I've been on for about an hour and I get three messages from guys looking for crap I'm not interested in. I try not to bitch too much, but really people? 
Whether you are a submissive or a Dominant, read profiles! You owe it to those you are messaging asking to play. 
I have to stop now or I will go on a turbo rant. 

Mall of America was a bust. Blah. Also now considering canning the GZ trip. I think it's just going to be too much of a hassle to line up. We'll see.

I think someone should bring me cookie dough. Or cake batter ice cream.

Planning an outing to Ground Zero next Friday, I hope everything works out. It's been a tad hard to make any plans lately, due to certain other parties having a "very fluid schedule just now." 
Also going to be going to the Mall of America some time this week, so that should be interesting. It isn't exactly my favorite place to visit, but it can be fun once in a while. 

My top five favorite songs right now (in no particular order):

Divide -Disturbed

One Trip One Noise -FAQ

The Power is Mine -Lords of Acid

Innocence -Halestorm

The Bad Touch -Bloodhound Gang

I love music with kinky themes.

Sometimes I wonder if there should be (or maybe there is) a magic code out there related to viewing someone's profile (or adding them to your favorites) and what it means. Something like 
Views:
1. Doesn't mean much
2. I'm interested

3. I'm interested but too shy to message you

4. I'm a super creepy stalker and just want to fap to your pics

Or something like that, don't take any of that literally please. I get so many people who view me, and sometimes they will do so many times in one day over the course of several hours. I'm not complaining, really, but I am just curious and wonder what they're up to over there. I know that for me, viewing a profile once or twice doesn't mean much at all, especially if that person viewed me first. I like to see who's checking me out, you know, just because I'm curious. And personally, I add a lot of people to my favorites, and usually that is so I can remember either that I have messaged them or plan to. Often if someone is new and I like their profile, I'll fav them and then wait a while to see if they disappear within a week or two. Because I have messaged several newbies only to have them poof before even reading my message. 

Anyway, just a bit of rambling from me. 

It's been quite a while since I got the chance to have any kink fun, but yesterday I did get to enjoy a couple of hours of pet play with my fantastic boy. He makes such a cute little vinyl/rubberdog. I think next time I am going to go for a more feline look though, he's almost too slim bodied to make any sort of proper dog, except maybe a Greyhound.
Wish I could get a pretty girl to dress up like a pup or kitty, too. *Sigh* someday.

What is with all of these subs on here who claim to be seeking other subs for their Dominant? Really? It seems to me that subs are probably going to be looking mostly for Dominant profiles, if they are seeking, well, a Dominant. Not to mention, I wouldn't be all that comfortable not speaking with a possible future owner directly. What are they hiding? Can they not do their own leg work? I understand a sub helping, certainly, but doing all of the work... seems sketchy.

Is it just me, or is there a sudden spike in people who have trouble figuring out which gender they are? I am not talking about crossdressers or trans, but profiles that say things like "I am an easygoing guy, a real man's man..." or whatever else.... and then they are listed as female? I get that sometimes wrong buttons get tapped, but one can always go fix said mistake, yet so many seem to choose not to. Blah. Welcome to the internet.

Well the whole attempt to accept males was a bust, though I did meet some nice enough gents. Most of them are just sad little whiners though. So I am not going to be considering males anymore. I am going to edit my profile fully soon to reflect this. On an unrelated note, I would love to make someone scream today. Which is weird considering I am actually in a fantastic mood, and really not even upset by the whole b/s with the male species. As I said, at least I found some people really worth talking to. And some who weren't.

So excited! Just got a new pair of boots in the mail! Cherry red patent leather ankle boots, which by the way I got a wicked deal on! I'll try to put a picture or two up soon!
Still waiting on the thigh-high ones I was supposed to get for my birthday... long story there, and full of the bullcrap.
Sadly I won't be able to get much use out of either pair, as I'm a bit under the weather and play just isn't an option at the moment. Far too tired. But I'm sure I'll be feeling better soon, and I've got a date with my best girl friend on Friday to go buy some sexy fun stuff for her Daddy's birthday. Can't wait!

Edit: Posted pictures of the new boots, and may have just gotten the thigh-high ones in the mail! I will find out after work. SO EXCITED! Also posted a picture of my claws, which were another birthday present. They are SO fun!

Something else I've been running across lately that I find interesting... people whose journal entries are nothing but ranting bitchery in chatspeak about how "everyone" on here is this, that, or the other. I know that it is a good place to vent, but it is a huge turn off to me at least, when I see a profile that seems arlight, then the last three journal entires read something like "Every single one of you ppl on heer is full of shti! Their is not one real dominate on this hole fukin site!"
Well just so you know, with an attitude like that you've probably managed to offend any real Dominants who may have otherwise considered you. Perhaps you could consider a bit of maturity, and Heaven forbid take a second to proofread your posts and not come off like you never passed the first grade. Just a thought.

Yes, I understand, most of my journal entires are either advice to people who are probably never going to bother reading it anyway, or venting a little, but I try to be logical about my complaints and at least write my thoughts out properly.

Just wanted to wish everyone a merry Christmas!! By the way, if I read your message and don't reply right away, please bear with me. I browse from my phone a lot and often prefer to wait until I am at my computer to respond. I try not to ignore anyone unless they are obviously just spamming me.

Just a polite suggestion to the people of Collarme. If you are owned or not seeking anyone, it might be a good idea to change the "Actively Seeking" secton of your profile to reflect that. That way you are likely to get less garbage mail from people who don't read, and those of us who are actively seeking someone won't have your profile pop up on our narrowed criteria lists. Just a suggestion. I see so many people complaining about "why don't you people get it, I'm OWNED!!1" and yet their profile still has them "Actively Seeking" everything from switches to Dominants.
Just a thought.

My birthday is coming up at the end of this month! Can't wait!

In the very least I wish all of the people who I have managed to frighten away would let me know what it was I said or did that turned them off. All I have gotten from several girls was "yes that's fine, no that isn't a problem at all, in fact I like it, you sound perfect." and so forth. Then I never see or hear from them again. One person was nice enough to talk to me for a while, and then told me exactly why she decided I wasn't the Domme for her. I understood, told her I wished her the best of luck, and that was that.
So to any potential females who happen to read this please, just be honest with me. I promise I won't get upset, I won't be unkind, I will respect your desires and leave you alone if you simply tell me what it is about me that you think isn't for you. If it's something I can improve upon, especially, I would really like to know. If it's something I can't change, like you just looked at my profile again and realized I am really short and are turned off by short people, well ok then. Just be honest and communicate.

Also, I am not going to apologize for not being the typical Domme who struts around thinking she is perfect and calling everyone around her scum or piggies or whatever else. I am just as serious about this as anyone else, I just don't go about it in a way that makes me look like an idiot.
And if anyone thinks I am too "soft" when speaking with me, it is because I do not and will not start bossing anyone around until I have established at least the beginning of a relationship with them. I can and will be a powerful Domme, but only once I am seriously considering you as my sub or slave. Until then, we are two people getting to know one another. If you have a problem with that, if you want someone who is going to start shouting commands from the start, well, then maybe I am not the Domme for you.

Ok, rant time. I seriously suggest not bothering to read this. It is me being crabby. I am allowed to do that, because I am human. And because collarme is mostly populated by either trolls, total scumbags, idiots, or all of the above. Not EVERYONE here is awful, of course, but some days it just seems like that might be the case.

I have come across no less than two profiles in the last three minutes which made me question humanity, and I mean a lot more than normal.
One was a female whose orientation was set to Dominant. She claimed to be seeking a master to own her forever, blah blah and so forth. Well why is your orientation set to Dominant then, dearie, if you say in your profile that you are a sub or slave?
The second was the opposite. A female slave, who claimed to "own u" because she was a princess and blah blah blah go jump in a lake. Her profile alone made me want to just break down and cry for the total failure that she is, but then to have your orientation set to "slave" on top of it?
Why do you people suck so bad!?

While I'm ranting, here is a tiny lesson in grammar.

I am Dominant. You are Dominant. He is Dominant. She is Dominant. None of these people are "dominate." You are not seeking a "dominate" you are seeking a dominant. One is a verb, the other an adjective. Stop using “dominate” to describe someone. You dominate a person, you are a dominant person. It is NOT that hard!

I also question whether “seeking for” is proper. I feel like it should be “I am seeking a master/slave/etc.” You seek something. You look for something. “Seeking for” something just sounds… wrong. I will admit, however, in taking just a second to look it up, I did not in fact find it to be incorrect, nor did I find it to be proper English.

Rant over, I hope. I understand that people make mistakes, but can't we all just try a little bit to sound like we may have made it past out first grade English lessons?

"I bring you pain, the kind you can't suffer quietly..."

If you know the source of this quote without looking it up, you are awesome.

Ok I have to admit, I am wickedly curious. Why do so many "Dom males" view my profile? If all they want is a bit of fap fodder, one doesn't need to view me in full to see all of my pictures. It doesn't really bother me, it just makes me wonder. Perhaps I just over think things. 

Well, I am just going to go ahead and post this little conversation, and let you all draw your own conclusions. (Read from the bottom up, obviously.)
