    Site Update
           

    Just added to the members' section : 40 pics shot by Doug Lucy of Dungeon21.com. I was supposed to be shooting a scene for a spanking video, but my model flaked, so I asked Doug to shoot some bondage stuff of me.

           

    I bought these boots right before AVN. They were advertised as "latex look" boots. As you can see, they look nothing like latex. I love the boots, but how about some truth in advertising?? When I mentioned this to the seller (he has a store on ebay) he was really nasty about it and left me negative feedback! Sheesh!




    The video clip has me smoking in a sundress before revealing my voluptuous breasts. This is the first clip with my new hair, I had to film the director's interview for "Breaking Berlin" and figured I may as well do a smoking clip while I was at it. I had the camera on a tripod with the view screen flipped towards me so I could tell if I was out of frame. It was pretty hot playing to the camera and watching myself.

           

    There's also a set I shot of Alsana Sin when she first started modeling. She had just taken out her dreadlocks and was self-conscious about her hair (it looked fine) and wanted to wear a wig for the shoot. To me she looked like a mannequin and so we did a doll-inspired series in which it's hard to tell if she's a person or if she's a mannequin that's being moved around and manipulated. These pics have almost a serial killer vibe to them which I like.

    kitty update + 2 pics
    Simone is doing better. Today's been a good day -she sat in the window for a while and later was on my lap. Until today she'd been hiding in the bathroom in the corner, facing the wall, which is really unlike her. She's still really skinny and I can't seem to interest her in food, but she's definitely doing better. I was afraid that things might take another turn for the worse with her. She has a check up tomorrow.

    Alastair is still really sick. He's wheezing, sneezing and coughing. He was on my desk and it looked like he had some dirt in his fur. Turns out he had a bunch of FLEAS! I picked him up and ran to the bathroom, grabbing some dish soap on the way and doused him with water until every last flea was dead, then picked them out by hand. I checked Simone and she doesn't seem to have any, but I have 3 other cats, none of which are going to let me check them, much less give them the same treatment Alastair got. I felt so bad because the poor little guy can hardly breathe and I was adding to his torment, but one thing I can't deal with is bugs. That's one of the things I really miss about living in a high rise - I never had bugs ever. After I moved to LA was the first time my cats ever had fleas. it's incredibly traumatizing for me (and for them too, I'm sure). I already know i'm going to be all twitchy and thinking things are crawling on me for days.

    The update is almost done, but I'm beat. Tomorrow I'm doing a shoot so I can have more blonde pics. In the meantime, here are two screen captures from this week's video clip :

    quick blonde pics
    i have a photo shoot scheduled sat for more pro looking pics, but in the meantime, i snapped these 2.





    I LOVE MY HAIR. I thought it would look good since my eyebrows and eyelashes are blonde, but I wasn't prepared for how much I would love it.

    YAY!

    taking the Platinum Plunge
    i've wanted platinum blonde hair since i was a little girl and watched Marilyn Monroe movies. When Sun-in came out, I tried it and people would call me "blondie" but my hair has never been lighter than the color it is now, a honey blonde. Lemon juice couldn't lift it enough either. When i moved to LA i tried to get it dyed blonde professionally, but they talked me into getting a colour weave where the highlights were lightened gradually. At the rate they were going I was going to be 80 before my hair ever got to the shade I wanted. Jack Banner called my hair "Laguna Beach Blonde". I'm all for looking classy, but I think Platinum Blonde can be classy too. Josie Bissett rocked it and she has pink undertones just like i do.

    Tomorrow is the big day. I'm kind of nervous and afraid I'll come out of the salon with no hair. Cross your fingers for me! This is one of those things that I've always wanted to do. I'm getting to the point in my life where I feel like I should go out and do some of these things that have been lingering in my head. I'm not getting any younger and the time to live is NOW. If I don't like it, at least I finally tried it. There are some other things that are on this list of mine, I'll update you as they happen/are about to happen... One involves a motorcycle, a lover, and beautiful rolling country roads..

    "Licking the Jar"
    Apparently my stepfather has been trying to find me dates/a man/whatever. One of his co-workers is newly single and he decided to feel out the situation by asking if the guy could still get it up. I think this man, who i've never even met by the way, is in his mid-late 50s... His response was if he had problems he could still "lick the jar". EWWWWW! Seriously when i heard that all i could see was the landlady from "Kingpin".

    While the sentiment is appreciated, I think I can find my own lovers, preferably ones that don't know my stepfather and are a little more in my age range... And don't refer to certain sexual activities in such a grotesque manner...

    Current Mood: sheesh!

    kitty update and pic
    Simone is home, I'm so very happy. Alastair is still coughing and wheezing, but I've been keeping a close eye on him. Thank you to everyone who had well wishes for my kitties, they mean the world to me.

    this pic is from my trip to TN in April, shot by Jeff Norris.



    I'm off to work out with my personal trainer. I've upped the number of our sessions to 4 per week and told him I wanted to start working on definition. I think after today it's very likely my body will hurt :)

    home at last
    I was supposed to leave again on Thurs, but with my kitties being in such bad shape I moved one of my shoots and stayed the night, though I barely slept. My cats kept waking me up because they were both really uncomfortable. In the morning Alastair and Simone went to the vet. Alastair had a fever and was coughing and wheezing. Simone couldn't open her eye and was having trouble breathing as well. They sent Alastair home with some pills and kept Simone so they could do surgery. She lost her eye :( The cancer has been really aggressive, I hope it won't come back a 3rd time.

    My shoot in Kansas City was at 11am on Sat, KC is 6 hrs from me. I couldn't leave my little boy by himself, so I got my mom to stay with him while I was gone. I felt like the worst mom ever as he could barely open his eyes and had to open his little mouth to take in a breath. It was 10pm, though, and I HAD to go. I drove until 2 or 3am, got a hotel, then got up at 8am to finish the drive. I did 2 shoots that day, then drove to Wichita, KS (3 hrs) for a shoot in the morning. Finally I got to go home, 8 hrs of driving later. I think i'm done driving for a while. When I got home Alastair was better, though he's definitely not well. His fever has gone down. My mom cleaned my house and made curtains for my room while I was gone, which was really nice of her. Hopefully Simone gets to come home today. I'm exhausted but as usual, there's so much work to do...

    Site Update
           

    Just added to the members' section : 66 pics I shot and rigged of Loren Chance back in 2003. I was just starting to get into latex back then. I had already seen Marquis' "White Room 3" which piqued my interest, but I hadn't really started playing with latex first-hand yet. At this point I knew for sure I was into hoods, especially the clear latex ones...

           

    The video clip has me duct taped to a chair before my voluptuous breasts are whipped with a flogger.

    Simone, my Angel
    After driving 900 miles in 24 hrs to get back home I opened the door of my house and saw my precious little Simone sitting on my bed looking 100 times worse than my mom had described. When i left to go out of town, her scab above her eye was a little puffy and so I asked my mom to take her to the vet while I was gone (which she did). It hasn't healed properly since her surgery no matter how many different concoctions I put on it, no matter how clean I kept it. Now it's swollen and is so big she can't open her eye at all. It's spread to the side and further above where it originally was. Her other eye looked at me and was tearing. Add to that she was wheezing so badly it looked like it hurt her to breathe. I picked her up and tears started rolling down my face. I called my mom and got her to call the vet while i held Simone and kissed her little face. She started to purr and her tail was wagging ever so slightly, but still she didn't look good.

    Her surgery was scheduled for Tues. The vet was about to go out to the country to see a pregnant cow who needed help, but he left some meds for her in the mailbox. I drove to his office and the only thing I saw was a sharps container. Across the street there were 2 mailboxes and i opened one, seeing the packet of pills inside. I've done some sketchy things in my time, but somehow this seemed like one of the sketchiest. There were 4 pills in the envelope, no directions, just "wheezing cat" on the paper inside.

    I got home and tried to give Simone 3 of the 4 pills since they were different colours, thus it was safe to assume they were all different things. I don't know if you've ever tried to give a pill to a cat, but it's an ordeal and she was already suffering. it was horrible to put her in even more distress. I opened her mouth and put one of the pills on the back of her tongue and she started to foam at the mouth. I quickly dropped the other 2 in her mouth and tried to keep it closed to force her to swallow them. Thick mucous-y drool was pouring out of her mouth which included bits of the pills. I tried to scoop up the drool and put it back in her mouth, then took her over to her water bowl so I could use the water to wash it all down, hoping she would get at least some of the medicine down.

    I called the vet back and the cow was in need of a C section and he would have to call me back. I told him she could not wait until Tues. I'm terrified she's not going to make it through the night. Her wheezing is better, but she's still wheezing. Right now she's laying on my lap, she just wants to be close to me. I was supposed to be leaving for Kansas City tonight but I moved one of my shoots to Saturday so I can be with her and take her to the vet tomorrow. I still don't have an appointment, but i'm going sit in their office from the time they open until someone will see her

    Alastair is wheezing really badly too. I was gone for 2 weeks. It makes me question was any of it really worth it? Sure, I had fun, but was it worth it? My whole purpose for this trip wasn't even fulfilled. I made enough money to pay my rent and utilities, but I spent most of the money i made going out and on traveling expenses.

    I don't know if she's going to make it. When I first saw her all I could think was she looked just like my cat Sammy did right before he died on my kitchen floor in front of me 3 years ago after being in the hospital for 2 weeks.

    Simone is my angel. I got her in 1997, right before my husband and I separated, right before I got cancer. When you first get a new cat/kitten you have to separate them until they get used to each other. She cried whenever I would put her in the bathroom by herself so for 2 weeks I slept in the bathtub with her; every single night we slept in the tub together surrounded by blankets so she wouldn't be alone.

    I love this cat more than anything.

    My heart is aching.

    one more day
    one more day left to this roadtrip until i get to drive back home. there have been some good things about the trip and some really bad things, food poisoning being among the bad things... in the 8 years i've been directing i've never had a model flake on me. on this trip i've had 5. it's been one headache after another, but after tomorrow it will finally be over. i'll be in Kansas City this weekend. Contemplating cancelling my St Louis trip so i can regroup and relax.

    on a personal front i've made some important discoveries. progress is good. there are things i'm not willing to accept any more. i'm becoming more aware of what i deserve and what i don't deserve. it feels good to stand up for myself.

    another thing that has been unique about this trip is i've spent a lot of time with a girlfriend of mine - hanging out, bar hopping, etc. generally most chicks get on my nerves, more of my friends are men, but it's been great hanging out and not having to deal with the usual creepiness/pressure of hanging out with guys. it's been nice to be able to be free.

    Site Update
           

    Just added to the members' section : Jack Banner torments my pretty fishnet covered feet with a riding crop.


           

    The video features Mistress Genevieve putting lotion all over her size 10 feet, before getting out a big black cock and giving it a slippery sexy footjob.




    Next is 44 pics I shot of TigerLily that have her feeling her way onto a wooden frame while blindfolded. Her leash is secured and more and more ropes are added.

           

    I think TigerLily is the one who got my foot fetish started. Usually if a model shows up with toenail polish other than red I am incredibly irritated. Her tiny little feet (and her personality) were so cute, it didn't matter.

    quick pic
    shot yesterday by Jeff Norris in Clarkesville, TN

    11:13 am
    i'm about to head out for the day : tanning, gym, shoot. i'm exhausted. i'm in nashville now, i've done a lot of driving since i left my house on Friday morning. at least it's not raining anymore. i'm going to try like hell to get the update up tonight after my shoot. I forgot how tiring being on the road can be. i had all these plans for doing work and keeping up my work outs which haven't happened. i'd gotten used to working out 5 times a week, it's been 5 days since i've been able to work out. i feel soo sluggish!

    my cat Simone's cancer appears to have come back. Her eye never healed properly after her 1st surgery. She has another assessment appointment when I get back. In the meantime they gave her a cortisone shot for itching so she'll stop pulling off her scabs. my poor baby :(

    Current Mood: exhausted
