Just dropping by to say hi

A big hello to all my fan - Hi Bonnie! I'm not sure if I'm ready to begin bloggin again, but I have been writing lately. I attempted NaNo but while I won't be finishing it by the end of the month, I probably will continue working on it as well as the story that I got about half way done last year.

Kasey and I are doing fine, though very busy.

Hope you're all getting as lucky as you want to be,

Where am I?

Huh? Where is this place? It looks a little familiar.

And if I were to die, here's how

Another badass quiz from eSPIN-the-Bottle... How Will You Die? MY RESULT:Peacefully In Your Sleep You’re smart, you're healthy and you don’t let anger or stress get the best of you. But even the best of us gotta go sometime. Wanna die in a more adventurous way? We recommend taking up one (or all) of the following hobbies: glass eating, chemical mixing, hijacking, or poking grizzly bears with sticks and calling them “jerkface.” Take This Quiz!

Still not dead, though it was close once or twice

Well, I am still alive, though I think I've had half of all illnesses known to humankind lately. I don't think I'm quite ready to resume regular postings, but I did want to let people know what kind of sexy I am:

Another badass quiz from eSPIN-the-Bottle... Which Sexy Are You? MY RESULT:Intellectual Sexy You’ve got that smooth, mature kind of sexiness that does really well at Sudoku conventions or just about anywhere. You’ve got a bit of the Geek in you, which you stealthily use to your advantage. After all, there’s nothing sexier than being smart about what you want and going after it. You have the potential to wow ‘em with your choice words and profound insight. Just be sure to find a suitable balance between confidence and kindness. Have courage to speak your mind, but don’t forget about giving all your honeys all the love and attention they deserve. (After all, they were smart enough to go for you.) Take This Quiz!

Hope you're all getting as lucky as you want to be,

Fortune Cookie update: Latest cookie - "Choosing what you want to do, and when to do it, is an act of creation." Perhaps these fortuneless cookies are trying to tell me that I don't actually have a future?

Spanking Songs?

Once again, I feel it is necessary to let people know that I am in fact still alive. Though for a while there I wasn't so sure if I was going to live and if that was such a bad thing. But, I have in fact survived the plague and am even 10 pounds more svelte - not that that's enough to notice - and I'm ready to get back to my duty of keeping Kasey in line.

She's even been taunting me this morning with, "You know I'm not getting anything tonight" which clearly indicates that she definitely wants something tonight. It may not be pretty or easy to understand, but after more than a decade, I have at least picked up on a few of the twists and turns in the way Kasey's mind works (or plays or whatever it is that her mind actually does).

During my convalescence our 12 Days of Christmas have slipped and it is time to get back on track. Given that the 12 Days are actually supposed to start on Christmas, I figure as long as we get them completed by the time the Magi arrive we should be good. However, starting today we have a new challenge - relatives. Yes, we will have people staying in our house who do not know about our spanko games and we'd just as soon keep it that way.

However, I think we can get away with it if we add a little extra noise to the equation, i.e. music. Which of course begs the question, "What's the best music to accompany a spanking?" In this case it is several spankings because we will have people staying with us for several nights and we wouldn't want to become bored with our music choices.

The first one is a bit of a no-brainer - Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing, by Chris Isaak. A favorite of Kasey and me since long before Messrs. Kubric and Cruise and Ms. Kidman made it famous in Mr. Kubric's last film, Eyes Wide Shut, it has to be one of the most perfect spanking songs ever performed. If you've been living under a rock for the last eleven and a half years, you can hear an excerpt* of it here.

The problem of course is what about the rest of the days that we'll have family around and I'll have an obligation to perform my duty to Kasey? Any ideas? What's your favorite music for spanking? We've already used Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue as Kasey described here**, so that's out.

Hope you're all getting as lucky (and healthy) as you want to be,

* I have no sort of affiliation with Amazon and I get nothing in exchange for you clicking the link. It was just the most convenient place I know of to legally hear a bit of the song.

** In my opinion the best recording of Rhapsody in Blue is the one that came from my collection, which is this one. Like Stravinsky's Rite of Spring (Do not under any circumstances get me started on Disney's heresy in Fantasia!), most conductors try to tone it down and pretty it up. From the first wail of the clarinet in Tilson's rendition of Rhapsody you know he gets it.

Fortune Cookie Update: Last two not fortunes - "A feeling is an idea with roots." & "Believe it can be done."

I'm still alive

When I was in my first year of college, I got a card from my mother. The message on the card was, "I heard a rumor that you're still alive." It seems that I hadn't written or called her in a while.

I feel like the blog has been sending me "Are you still alive?" cards, but I just haven't had the time to write lately. I have either an almost completed or half completed chapter of The E&A Group but I can't decide which is the correct amount of completion. I've had a couple ideas for blog posts, but I haven't written any of them yet. Kasey has been naughty lately, so there are a couple of stories that could probably be told, but these haven't been written down either.

Anyway, I am still alive and I will be putting up some new posts with actual content sometime soon.

Hope you're all getting as lucky as you want to be,

Half Nekkid Thursday, Thanksgiving Edition

Well, it's Thanksgiving, which just happens to fall on a Thursday this year, so it seemed only appropriate to adopt Turkey Day as the theme this Half Nekkid Thursday. So without further ado:


Hope you're all getting as lucky as you want to be and as full,

bbobb

p.s. Kasey should have her HNT picture up soon as well.

Finally, a FORTUNE cookie

A little more than a month ago I expressed my displeasure with the state of fortune cookie fortunes. I will admit to a certain fondness for Chinese buffet for lunch, so since that time, I've gotten maybe a dozen more fortune cookies (okay, so maybe I do occasionally take more than one - we all have our foibles). In that time, I have not gotten a single actual fortune.

All more BS like:

• Winning starts with beginning.
• You constantly struggle for self-improvement.
• Don't eat yellow snow.
• etc., etc., etc.

Until today.

Today, I got a real honest to Buddha fortune in my fortune cookie.

Drum roll please.

You will be recognized and honored as a community leader.

Of course, it's still BS, but at least it's a fortune.

Hope you are all getting as lucky as you want,

bbobb
