As many of you know I had some hard times in 2010, and I spent the whole last half of November and the entire month of December being totally burned out. I know many of you follow my twitter and have seen countless complaints about chronic pain, insomnia, problems at the day job, losing my photo studio, and ongoing problems with utilities and ants in my new warehouse space. I took several vacations, but it was only on the trip to Calistoga, gift from a generous gentleman, that I was truly able to relax. I had a spa night up there with the mud bath and mineral water jacuzzi. That was the first night in several months that I was able to relax enough to fall asleep and stay asleep for an appropriate amount of time. It was the mineral water that really did it for me, and I look forward to be able to go back a little more frequently. It wasn’t very expensive so if you are looking for a gift I can let you know who in Calistoga to call to get me a spa trip.
I don’t know if I’m feeling any more balanced in this whole work/life thing. My work as a femdom is just so personal that a lot of the times I feel like I’m not working at all. It’s also difficult having to sell yourself to people, as any self-employed, small business owner or salesperson knows. It can get really deeply personal when you’re rejected or fail to make a connection. I remember it being like this in the strip club, and trying to work through the issues at that time. I think I’m in a much better place mentally now, but it still hurts sometimes and it can get exhausting.
I have some big personal goals for 2011, and I hope for you all to be a part of them! Keep following for updates and get in contact. I would love to hear from the folks in my fan club.
My first trip to Las Vegas was very interesting. I was there for the Desiree Alliance convention, so I was hanging out with other folks involved in the adult industry. My first day there I decided to go for a walk in the middle of the day and get my nails done. The manicure and pedicure was really mediocre, and walking that much in the heat was not exactly the best idea. I got my nails done in a sexy dark blue color, that everyone loved even though my nails started chipping right away.
I ended up getting really sick in the middle of the week and missed out on a lot of fun. I ate something bad I guess. I have never been that sick. In fact I was so ill that I was sitting in the hot tub and there was an orgy happening in front of me and I didn’t really care. Didn’t have a chance to make a trip to the range to shoot machine guns. However, for about an hour when I stopped puking I managed to get myself in a limo and go down to the New Rocks outlet store in downtown Las Vegas. That was tremendously exciting. The limo driver was really excited to have someone interesting in his car, and the guy at the New Rocks outlet was really sweet and helpful. I have been waiting to go to the New Rocks outlet for literally ten years. I bought myself some gorgeous boots, and I wear them everywhere. Maybe if you’re lucky I’ll snap some photos or even possibly trample you with them. And then as soon as I got back to the hotel I started vomiting again. Not exactly my fetish.
I also went to the footnight party and was surprised at how slow it was! The party was held at a really beautiful venue in a really strange neighborhood. I spent a good amount of time chatting with the guy that owned the place about sex clubs and night clubs in San Francisco. I met up with a good friend from LA before the party and we went together. I also met a couple of very interesting guys at the party, but it was really very slow. I was a bit disappointed that Las Vegas didn’t live up to the “sin city” name, because there was a distinct lack of sinning on my part.
Because I was so ill and so busy I didn’t get to the strip at all. I didn’t get to gamble like I wanted to. I got as far as putting $20 in the slot machine, but I didn’t get to play dice or cards. I am really disappointed that I didn’t get to the range to shoot all the guns you can’t get here in California. I also didn’t get nearly enough playtime! I had a wonderful date before the footnight party, but that was all.
I’m hoping to go back in the spring for a work and play trip. I’m starting to meet more people in interesting travel destinations, so I look forward to being able to travel more frequently.
I am blogging from Las Vegas! This is my first trip to the city. This place is really beautiful. I love the desert and the obnoxious heat. I walked for about an hour in the middle of the day to get my nails done and find a drug store. Hate the air conditioning bubbles. The desert landscape can’t realistically support a population this size, with all the resorts and golf courses. I would love to hike out and spend some time in the desert. When I was at Burningman years ago I had the very same feelings about loving the desert landscape and questioning the environmental sustainability.
I’m getting excited about the footnight party on Thursday. Today I’m going shopping in downtown. Tomorrow I hope to go to the shooting range. I still want to squeeze in a trip to the Bellagio to see the art and botanical gardens. Follow my twitter feed to get minute-by-minute updates.
This year I have a lot of travel scheduled so I will have the opportunity to see new clients in new cities. Please contact me if you would like to book an appointment. I haven’t decided on exact dates for most of my trips, so I can be somewhat accommodating when it comes to scheduling.
So far I have planned:
LA/SoCal: late March, possibly also May
Chicago: mid-June
Las Vegas: Last week of July
hopefully eventually/soon: NYC, Vancouver, Atlanta
I am also looking at scheduling short trips to Santa Rosa, San Jose, Santa Cruz and Monterey. If you are located in those cities please contact me for more details.
I will be making a trip up to Santa Rosa on Saturday January 9th and will be taking new clients. I will also have one appointment for brown showers available on Sunday morning before check out.
Now I just need to decide on a hotel…
Late breaking news!! I am confirmed to be at the Sacramento FootNight.com party on Friday November 21st. This means that I will also be available for a select few sessions outside the party while I am still in Sacramento. This is a fantastic opportunity for aspiring slaves and foot fetishists to meet me for a session without having to make the trip to San Francisco.
