Furniture and more

I suppose when its been too long since I’ve posted, a surefire way to entice me to write and bring some things up to date is to provide me with anything that may generate a laugh.  This may not cause most of you to even grin, but it sure as hell got me to giggle.  Many thanks to Jenny Maurer.

Its fucking fine y'all!

Can you just see the commercial?  Dio in a cheap suit with a nude girl leashed and kneeling beside her.  “Y’all get on down here to Dio’s.  Our furniture is fucking fine!”

Anyway, on to some other topics that are long overdue.  The island is once again open to the public.  I think this may be the final renovation for a long time as it seems to be generating the most compliments.  I am slowly introducing various devices and traps and promise to try and rotate in several favorites.  As usual, if anyone has a request for a particular piece, feel free to provide that to me in-world.

I want to say thank you again to Jill Ormstein for donating the entire line of DoD devices to be used at the island.  Several are currently out for display and more will be added as I rotate items in and out.  Its a simple formula, if I see an item being used on a regular basis, it stays.  If not, it goes.

Of course, in real life its the holiday season and of course, its beginning to cost a lot like Christmas.  I mean this monetarily, as well as time commitments.  Whatever holiday you celebrate or faith you worship this time of year, I would like to wish everyone a happy holiday season and peace on earth.

We continue to get updates on Rabea, who’s kept away from Second Life for health reasons.  Our thoughts are with her and we wish her the best.

Its also been a while since we’ve seen Anna, but understand from her bratty comments its not health related.  Love you Anna!

Valerie has also been on a short sabbatical recently as the result of technical issues on her end with regards to her equipment and power supplies.  Miss you Love!!!!  I hope to see you soon.

One more item I want to address and that is to say thank you to each and every person that has taken the time to click on this blog and read about my SL experience, my life in SL, my Family and those I love.  According to my stats checker, we are approaching 20,000 views of this page.  We’re currently at 19, 502.  I am simply blown away that so many of you have kept up with the Brat Pack in this way.  In hindsight, I guess I shouldn’t be, as so many of you continue to visit Yasminia and support us there.

Rabea Landar

I once vowed that I would not take on any new Brats.  Most readers will recall that I promised Claire was my final one.  the trouble with painting yourself into a corner is that sooner or later, you have to come out.

I knew as I made that vow that somewhere there was a person special enough for me to consider as a Brat.  I finally met her.  Rabea Landar.

Rabea is the latest addition to our Family.  I won’t make the same mistake twice and say she’s the last Brat.  *smile*

Rabea entered our Family like a whirlwind, she suddenly appeared, blew in, shook everything up, rearranged it and twirled about with a lot of noise.  However, whirlwinds usually die down, or blow away.  Thankfully, Rabea has done neither.

She has lingered, gotten to know everyone, and shown what a kind and caring person she can be under her gruff exterior.  Somewhere along the way, she has shown that if she is nothing else, she is a Brat.

Rabea comes to our Family at a time when I was afraid we were leveling off in our passion, or perhaps had hit a flat point.  Since her appearance, everyone seems recharged, more energetic.  I’m not sure how to describe it, but a lot of the activities we engage in as fans of bdsm require that we have a certain “burning”.  Rabea has helped turn up the heat for a lot of us, for lack of a better analogy.

As such, I have given her the title of Yasmin’s Fire.  Be careful when you play with her, lest you get burned.

I love you Rab, we love you.  Welcome to the Family.
