The relationship between body and mind, and precisely where personality and the ‘youness’ of ‘you’ sits in that relationship continues to fascinate me. This is largely because I was on The Pill for years. I was put on it as a teenager when I complained of painful periods to my doctor and thought it was … Read More

Labels are useful for communication, it’s something I have always maintained, and yet they restrict you, they fill you full of other people’s expectations. Even poly, with that huge polyamorous community online (mostly filled by Americans who seem to delight in finding new ways to describe old things) means expectations aplenty. But then even my … Read More

Boys may not want to read this. Girls may not want to read this. There is a certain amount of detail about my monthly bleeding in it. So, I have managed to bleed on and off almost since I got here. Most of my knickers have been treated with salt (which only gets a certain … Read More

Part of me half wishes I could take FJ to the airport, put him on the plane to Rio and then turn around and keep going. I don´t want to come home…part of me doesn´t want a home to come back to. The Jellicle knows how much I love him so please don´t start telling … Read More

There was a long blog post that got lost over a bad connection…you guys will just have to wait till FJ and I are back – not long at all now, we´ve got the physically hard part out of the way but now we´re into mentally difficult territory. There´s been a bit of an issue … Read More

Obviously, one day I shall be famous, and they’ll make a film of my life. The opening credits will be taken from a couple of years ago, a woman (me), driving fast down a series of motorways singing loudly along to the Goo Goo Dolls. Looking out of the window, and the windscreen as well … Read More

There follow thoughts about role-play but it’s largely intended for people who already role-play. I’ll probably do an entry about role-play for people who don’t at some point but this may not hold your interest if you don’t. I got to play this weekend. It’s a very different perspective. I’ve GM’d a lot of table … Read More

So, I’m a woman who has had something of a sex life (insert appreciative sound here eg. phoar/and how!/woohoo!/get some! etc.etc.) and has been fairly obsessive over the years with contraception. Back when I went into my doctors aged fourteen with incredibly painful periods I got put on the pill and after changing pills a … Read More
