DO Fusion '16: In Which I am the Hottest Mess

So... Fusion. 2o16. Holy shitoley.

Warning; this is quite a feels dump.

I had exactly the camp I needed. I was so worried that it was going to be bad. And don't get me wrong... Wednesday and Thursday were sort of clusterfuckey for me. I wasn't sober much those two days because I was having trouble dealing with my own head.

I had to come to terms with the depths of my own loneliness and actually accept it. For real, not just for pretend. It's been a really hard road. This was the first event I've been to as a single, functional person. I felt incredibly alone Wednesday and Thursday nights. I actually had pangs of it all throughout the event but some days were easier to deal with than others.

I'm really impressed with myself for being able to form meaningful connections with new people and actually enjoy myself. I find it so incredibly difficult to trust people. I identify strongly with the Stray Dog. Once upon a time had a home and a warm bed with someone to curl up with and feel safe with, and a collar and I no longer have those things. Although I think camp was the first time in a long, long time I didn't feel myself instinctively reaching for my used-to-be collar. Going to bed alone was even more difficult than usual because I could see the couples in my cabin having good times with their partners and every night I got into a cold bed alone.

I found myself unable to talk to people, especially people I was interested in, at all. I don't know what my brain was doing or why it was having such a problem but I am glad I was able to get over it. I used non-sober me to go up to people and talk to them and tell them to find me when I was sober because I was not in a place where I could consent to anything at all. And some of them did actually come back and find the next day when I could talk about things. AND THEN SOME OF US ACTUALLY DID THINGS TOGETHER. What a novel idea, playing with people at sex camp.

I had a ton of vanilla sex and that was exactly what I needed. Being able to connect with people physically. Be ok being touched, in a lot of really intimate and non-typical ways for me. I spent a lot of time with hands and mouths on me and that isn't usually how I have sex, but I really, really enjoyed myself.

I let my big fucking mouth get me into trouble. Twice. And it was totally worth it. I gave my roommate instructions to find me some pretty people with some specific things (gender identity, kink orientation, ec] and she TOTALLY delivered.

I found my love for hosting cigar socials all over again.

I left camp so very happy.

How You Can Help: some suggestions to make a difference in light of what has been going on in the scene.

*Note this was originally written January 2018, and was based on writings on fetlife.com at the time. *  How you can help instead of harm. A few key points to countering abuse, shitty behavior and making the scene (and the world) a better place. Discussions, writings upon writings upon writings on K&P, tears, heartfelt conversations, getting anxious on twitter (that last one is me), but what can we do to attempt to make improvements? Call out your friends. It doesn’t have to be publicly and it doesn’t have to be loudly. But if you see your friend do something shitty, or say something then. Something as simple as “Wow, that was shitty, why would you say that?” or “That wasn’t nice, you shouldn’t say that or do that to someone.” Will go a long way. It allows the group of people you’re in to also feel compelled to speak up. The bystander effect is real. When I started calling out the behavior of my relatives at holiday gatherings, shit got a lot better for everyone. And it ...

Obligatory New Years Posting

Stopping by the blog briefly to wish all my readers a safe, happy New Year.  Don't drink and drive folks, just get trashed at home where you can't hurt anything except the coffee table.  I am so honored to be able to share my journey with you all.  I'm looking forward to talking and sharing more stories and pictures with you all next year.

I can't remember how to get out of this cage.

I just got done crying, because I got looped into an angry masturbation session, jacking it to things I shouldn't have been looking at [not a good bunch of erotica for me to read] anyway, and then needed to cum twice. I wanted to feel something other than the way I've been feeling for the past month. I should be asleep because I took the horse tranquilizer over an hour ago. It's hard. I've had "problems" for 4 weeks and I'm super fucking done with it. I can't imagine how people live like this. I'm a poor chronic pain candidate. Exceptionally poor. For those of you catching up: car accident, seatbelt failure, whiplash [pretty gnarly] and a much more severe concussion than first presented. I can generally deal with the body pain. As long as it's not whatever happened to me on a week ago. Where the pain was so bad both myself and my doctor feared I'd torn my rotator cuff entirely. I suddenly couldn't lift my right arm above my he...
