[01] Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey?
Brevity or Stupidity.... fine line. Either way, I'll post =)

[02] Would you do meth if it was legalized?
No. Meth isn't a drug I enjoy or find much usefulness for...

[03] Abortion: for or against it?
Well, not exactly pro-abortion, but definitely pro-choice. To me, abortion is a huge decision and not one to be taken lightly, but still DEFINITELY one to be made WITHOUT government intervention.

[04] Do you think the world would fail with a female president?
I think this is a ridiculous question. I think whether the world "fails" or not depends on the quality of the person/people in charge... not which bathroom they use or what color their skin is.

[05] Do you believe in the death penalty?
Hmmm.... well, maybe. In very specific circumstances. Though, in general, I don't think it's necessary.

[06] Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
As a matter of fact, I do. I really do.

[07] Are you for or against premarital sex?
Oh, absolutely for it. I would never want to marry someone I didn't know if I was sexually compatible with. EGADS, what happens when you figure that out AFTER the fact? Besides, it's just so much FUN!!!

[08] Do you believe in God?
Which one? The Christian one?... nah. Doesn't work for me.

[09] Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
I think MARRIAGE should be illegal. And civil unions should be available for all who care to have them. Who anybody chooses to share their home, their finances and their lives with is none of the government's business.

[10] Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA?
Wrong? Like, what, go to hell wrong??? Hey, if you lived in Mexico, wouldn't YOU want to leave and go to a better place? Sure, I think it's better if it's done legally. Pay taxes, get a driver's license and insurance, but do I think it's WRONG? No. Hell, no. I'd want out of Mexico, too.

[11] A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it?
Depends entirely upon the 12 year old, her maturity level, her support system and whether or not she has the capability of continuing to ready herself for the rest of her life (school, life skills, etc). I would say in general, a 12 year old is probably too immature and ill-equipped to deal with a child full time, but circumstances can always be unique.

[12] Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen?
Yes, and then eventually abolished. Here's an idea. Parents teaching their children to drink responsibly. Hmmm. Crazy, right?

[13] Should the war in Iraq be called off?
Yes.

[14] Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?
No. If a person wants to choose how and when and with how much dignity they are allowed to die, they should be able to do so.

[15] Do you believe in spanking your children?
In VERY rare cases. I think communication is better than a smack on the backside anytime, but sometimes, when they're just not listening, you HAVE to make them listen.

[16] Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
Yeah. What have we got, like a million of them?

[17] Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama?
Obama

[18] Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Afraid? No. Do I think it might happen? It's possible. But I would like to hope not =)

Teehee...look what Erus made for me!

5 Things I Like


1. Bar-B-Que Ribs.



I am a Kansas City girl and I LOVES me some BBQ ribs. Today, we went to take Erus' daughter to see her grandmother, Erus' Mom. She smoked some pork ribs and they were YUMMY. Almost as good as the ones at Stone Mill. Which is my favorite local BBQ joint. Mmm Mmm.... Good!

2. Renaissance Festivals.




Pirates and Wenches. Men in tights and kilts. Lots of cleavage. Ale and Meade.
Enough said.

3. Hats



An article of clothing you can find to fit no matter the size of your ass. I have a massive hat collection.
And they're just so COOL!

4. Road Trips



I love taking road trips. Sure, you can fly anywhere you want to go, but you'd miss the fun of the pieces in between. All the truck stops with their bizarre retail offerings and weird fried food. The World's Biggest Ball of String. The Russell Stover Museum of Chocolate - complete with a gift shop that offers Chocolate Dyed T-Shirts 3 for $10.
Yeah, Road Trips ROCK!

5. Willy Wonka



The candy, not the movie. Although I like the movie, too. Both versions. Erus makes fun of me because I like candy so much and because the Willy Wonka kind is my favorite. Especially Runts, Nerds and Laffy Taffy. WITH the lame jokes on the wrapper.
It makes me happy.

So, there you have it. 5 things I like. Hope you enjoyed!

"I want you to write about the D/s elements that exist in our current relationship and how you relate to them."

These are the words Erus spoke to me about the new blog entry that is my assignment. He wants me to blog... regularly... at least once a week, he said. I told him I was experiencing some writer's block and needed some direction so, he gave me a topic. I think it's a good topic. In the midst of everything we are struggling with, I think it's a wonderful idea to "take inventory" and realize what we already have going for us.

Now, the actual writing of this blog has proved to be more problematic than I originally thought. I really do have writer's block. I think some part of me is afraid to put all of this out to the universe again. Somehow, in my mind, if I keep it all to myself (or share only with Erus), then maybe the fates won't catch on and throw me for another loop. Maybe I can sneak by under the radar, you know? Well, regardless, I spent days working on this blog entry. It feels disjointed and not very clear to me, but it's done.

The funny thing? I was punished this morning for not having posted my blog entry yet this week (the assignment was given to me on Monday), but as I look at what I already have written, it's pretty much already done. Erus said that it was better to turn in an incomplete assignment, than not to turn one in at all... if I had a dollar for every time I got in trouble for that very thing when I was a kid... my parents were such perfectionists that if I did something less than what they thought I was capable of doing, there was big trouble. So, the perfectionism rubbed off on me... if I can't do something to the best of my ability, I have a tendency to just not do it at all (probably the root of my terrible powers of procrastination). Anyway, it was hard... and it's not my best... and to find a voice to write it in, I wrote it to Erus, so bear with me....

"I want you to write about the D/s elements that exist in our current relationship and how you relate to them."

Well, here goes...

1. In the bedroom

The place that I feel most submissive, most of the time is in bedroom. Specifically during sex. Our sex is never what one would call "vanilla". It ALWAYS has elements of D/s in it. Your power over me is HOT, it turns me on... and this is place I find it easiest to relinquish control.

2. In the household (budget, household duties, no job, cooking and serving)

I am primary caretaker of the house and our physical selves. I provide all of the services that are required for us to live a happy, healthy life together. I cook, clean, do the laundry, the shopping, the meal planning and scheduling. All with your approval, of course. I have recently taken to not only cooking meals, but serving them as well. I take pride in bringing you a plate of yummy, healthy food and seeing the look of satisfaction on your face.

3. Kaylee

I can't ever remember NOT wanting to be a Mom. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately, what the hell do I know, anyway), the fates did not see fit to give me a child of my own. Maybe I'm still too much of a child myself. Regardless, when the fates saw fit to reunite me with you, my lost love, they also saw fit to bless me with your daughter. I have enjoyed getting to know and love her over the past couple of years and she has become an irreplaceable piece of my heart. What I didn't count on, was the struggle... it was hard for her to adjust (still is sometimes) to not having Mommy and Daddy together. And my being the new part of the equation just made me the logical person for her to blame. I struggled with trying to make her behave.... I struggled with letting you deal with her (or not) as you see fit... I had some real control issues... because I felt so OUT of control in regards to her not accepting me. It finally came clear one weekend when I wasn't even thinking about it. I had simply come to the place of acceptance. I couldn't change the way she treated me... I couldn't change the fact that she didn't like me very well.... all I could change was the way I reacted to it. She's a small child, for crying out loud... I'm the adult here. So, I choose to be as nice I could... and to try and make our time together as fun as possible. This, to me, has become merely another form of service to you. If I can make your daughter happy, then by proxy, I can make you happy, too.


So, there it is. It was a good exercise. It helped me to realize that there really are every day D/s elements in our lives that I wasn't regularly recognizing.

Yeah, sometimes it's good to take inventory...

TTFN,
~blaze!~
