Amelia-Jane has been on a little sabbatical because no one has booked me for spanking work over the last few weeks. I’ve been frightfully busy with lots of other stuff. Here is a list (I love lists)

Interesting Stuff

Shooting for http://www.mightyaphrodite.co.uk/ who produce fabulous, tasteful nude pictures for ladies who’re looking for stylish erotic portraits for themselves or their partner. I was helping to shoot their new brochure and it was lovely fun. I do recommend them if you’re looking for nice pictures of yourself. They’ve spent years perfecting the art of using lighting to hide all the flaws and illuminating all the most beautiful bits of anyone’s body. And they’re photoshop magicians too.

Travelling round Ireland on my own, working with photographers as I went. One of them was my friend who runs http://www.simplytied.com/ This is always a great treat, I wore luxurious pantyhose and got tied up in very beautiful rope designs.

Working for http://www.restrainedelegance.com/ (which now has a beautiful new free tour) at a small castle in rural Wiltshire. We were planning to shoot video but we ended up too near a main road for sound to be any good so we did lots of pictures instead (which I’ll post next time I blog). If we’d done video, I expect there would have been plenty of spanking, but as it was I got tied up an AWFUL lot, but not spanked much…

Now that I’ve written my list of interesting things, I’ve rather lost the desire to write a list of boring things I’ve done. But self-discipline really must prevail. Here it is.

Huh, I just deleted it. It was too boring. Wheeee!

Now, perhaps you were thinking that because there haven’t been any spanking shoots that I might have been enjoying a little break. Well, I kind of was until today. The BDM, who’s been rather busy himself and therefore slightly less observant than normal suddenly became very strict this morning. I lost the car in the Sainsbury’s carpark and he (rather irrationally, I do feel) said that if I couldn’t locate it without help then I’d have to be punished when we got home. Well really. Obviously I couldn’t find it, because I’m far too important to notice silly little things like that. And his car is an extremly boring colour (unlike my car, who’s name is Precious Garland, and she never gets lost, oh no). So then HE found it, took me home and made very efficient use of a big leather strap and my bottom. I think it reminded him that unkindness is very fun, because now he’s said that unless I post on my blog, I’ll have to take 40 strokes (with the same strap) this evening.

Hmmmm. Well, I have posted. So maybe that’s ok. Except that I also did something else very, very wrong today, for which the normal punishment is bastinado. Ouch. So there is suddenly lots of beating in my life.

Hello everyone!

Ariel/Amelia

Well, good lord. I’m back from a trip to Morocco, and, as always, am appalled at myself, and both flattered and rather amazed by the gracious people who post comments on my blog. Thank you! I’ve became phobic of visiting my own blog because it shames me so much, seeing the evidence of my own laziness, and the kind supportive comments everyone else seems to manage to find time to write.

I’ve also been reading a super book called Blood, Sweat and Tea by Tom Reynolds, a UK ambulance-driving-hero-man (oh, bloody hell, I suppose I should link to it and I seem to have broken the thing that does that) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Blood-Sweat-Tea-Adventures-Inner-city/dp/1905548230 Oh good heavens, it actually worked. It’s based on his blog (ha, shall link to it now!) http://randomreality.blogware.com/ and not only am I impressed by his lovely writing and kindness, but I’m shocked and amazed that he managed to write a blog that was LONG enough to turn into a book. This makes me EVEN MORE ASHAMED.

So I’m trying again. It’s springtime, I’ve been shooting with the BDM (Boyfriend/Dom/Master for those of you who are new to my blog, or just can’t face trawling back over past entries) outside, in the bluebells. In purple handcuffs. I have many things to say, having been absent for so long, but I’m trying to control myself, and organise my blog into shorter, more frequent posts. Like a proper blogger. In the meantime, I shall say that I very much liked being photographed in handcuffs that matched the surroundings. Thank you BDM.

And Leia Ann Woods http://leiasnewmusings.blogspot.com/ SPECIFICALLY told me that it’s ok to post one-sentence blog-posts. Like;-

‘Mmmm, red shoes.’ presumably. Which is the kind of thing she says. You may think this would be a bit unsatisfactory, but she assures me that it’s ok. Thank you Leia!

Good heavens! This week is very momentous for me. On Thursday I am moving in with the BDM (to newcomers to my blog, this stands for Boyfriend/Dom/Master because he very cleverly manages to take on all three roles). I’m very happy. I do try to be careful about posting personal information on my blog in case it’s being read by arch-enemies or, you know, stalkers, but I’m just going to splurge all sorts of personal details now, because I have run out of self-discipline…

I’ve been living on my own in my flat in London for the last 2 years. And it’s been very, very ordered and tidy. But rather lonely. There isn’t really much space for the BDM here, but he’s spent lots of time here, and I think that my neighbours might be a bit sick of us. I do try not to be noisy, but BDSM just IS noisy, so I think it’ll be good to be in a house instead.

Our new house will have a DUNGEON, so that the BDM can use it as a studio. This is actually factually incorrect. The new house will have a STUDIO, which can be used as a dungeon when he’s not working. But in my head, it shall not be a studio. Oh no. Flash heads are not sexy. Is a flash head even a real thing? Good lord, maybe I’ll learn more about photography once I’m living in an actual photographer’s house.

Anyway, it’s not his house. We’re buying it together. It’s 2/3rds this house and 1/3 mine. And my 3rd shall be very very clean 🙂

And these are some things that I’m looking forward to. Sorry, they are not all kinky. But the picture I posted at the top of the post is, so if this is boring, just look at that for a while instead, and IMAGINE what the post might have been about….

1) Eating dinner with my boyfriend, at a dining table, instead of eating on my own, at my desk while trying to reply to emails.
2) Sharing a bed. Or a room at least, I’m not sure if I’ll be allowed to sleep in an actual bed…. I wonder if I can have a sort of giant pet-basket?
3) Not having to schedule time together as though it’s a military campaign. I’ll just magically see him, every day (sort of – I’ll still have to work away a lot)
4) Being able to have people to stay – I haven’t got space at my flat to have more than one person at a time (or a very friendly couple) and I’m so looking forward to that!
5) Being a terrible, apologetic, submissive landlady. I hope my future tenant isn’t reading this, because I can already tell I’m going to be a pushover. I’ve just bought her a new oven, entirely by accident and against my will.

Now I’m going to stop writing before I publish my address, bank details and mother’s maiden name. Sorry for gushing, but I really am very excited!
