      Terrorizing of Himself is thoroughly done, and He's now left the house and i get precious solitude to paint!  Yay!

      Most of the time i hate being alone, but every once in a while it's nice to have the whole house to myself.  i can poke around in my robe and not answer the phone or the door if i don't want to.  i can take naked pics of myself (although i don't do this often anymore 'cause i always expect to see my 16 year old body in the pics, and "she" is long gone... sigh.) 

      i munch on something from the fridge, without worry of a plate or a fork.  

      i can zen with writing or painting and live very happily in the right side of my brain for awhile. Like right now.  Perfect.

      Getting ready for the moments of solitude this morning, was a bit of an adventure.  Himself and i woke up to the soft THUNK of a cat on the bed - more specifically, on our bodies.  And she wasn't easily convinced that she shouldn't be there.  'Course when all else fails, indulging in a good romp usually disgusts her enough to leave - so hey, why not!  Although i nearly got myself in trouble - just as i was about to snuggle back down into my side of the bed i heard Him rumble: "Excuse me, aren't you forgetting something?"  Oops.  i'm supposed to thank Him, and i had in fact forgotten.  

      Sometimes i think we need to go back to square one with the rituals ... a good solid month of retraining and maybe developing some new rituals that we'd both enjoy.  And maybe rituals tailored more around what our life is now, as opposed to what it was when we first met.  Some i can't imagine not doing - such as staying completely shaved in the private bits area - but perhaps as we are getting older, and our lives are more centered around our work efforts, it would be interesting to evolve in a different direction.

      Ah well - that of course, would involve a bunch of time that we don't seem to have lately.  

      Here's an excerpt from The Whippingham Papers that i thought was fun. :-)

(Scene One)

(School door - a passage)

Sally - (sweeping) Dear me, what a thing it is to be at such a place as Mrs Birch's - hurry scurry - pell mell - always the mop and the brush in my hand, whilst mistress is using the birch broom with her dainty hands upon the round white bums of the little folks who come here to learn good manners.

Miss Latecome - (within) Indeed, ma'am, I shall always come in good time if you will forgive me this once.

Sally - She forgive you, indeed.  I wish you may get it, young lady.  She is more likely to give you double than to forgive half.  But I must have a peep and see how things are going on.  Where is my spying-hole?  Oh, here it is.  Now for a full view of the exhibition that is going on.  Oh, there stands the mistress, with rod in hand, ready for the attack, and my little blubbering lady is lifting up her petticoats.  There they are tucked up about her waist - and now she is loosening her drawers.  i declare - down they go, sure enough.  Now she is horsed!  The mistress takes up her shift, and shows as pretty a bottom for a girl of fifteen as could well be seen.  Now she begins to give it to her.  One - two - Ah! she does not seem to like it. She kicks and roars out famously over it. How red her bottom is already. What weals the rod leaves! Yet there is something very pleasant about it.  I am delighted with it.  Oh! dear, quite delightful.  How charming it must be to give a pretty girl like this a good whipping.  I should like it of all things in the world.  To be sure I have sometimes a share in whipping the young ladies, but then it is only to horse them, or to hold them fast.  I would much rather whip them myself.  I would tickle their tobies soundly, I warrant - (bell rings) - Bless me, what can be wanted now.  I suppose it is now some other unfortunate young lady's turn.  Well - I must go and see.

 ... Scene Two tomorrow :-)
