A View from the Floor

…ponderings from a submissive’s perspective

So….

We’re back online, anyway.

We switched our stuff over from cable to AT&T and are actually happier with that than we were with cable. The phone works better, the internet connection is faster and the satellite tv is so far so good. We need to upgrade to a better channel package but otherwise the service is impeccable.

Yay!

BDSM wise everything is steady as she blows.

We’ve made it thru our money struggles with barely a bump in the D/s road and I have to feel that’s a hella accomplishment.

The monthly play party is bumped up a week this month to next weekend and I’m even - *gasp* - giving up my opportunity to play so that Taylor can whack someone else around. Heh!

We had a pretty intense scene last month - which left me marked for nearly two weeks and was exactly what I’d asked nicely for - so I’m feeling both generous and not really “up” to anything else in public quite yet.

Perhaps I’m craving something intense and harsh during our alone time? Could be.

I also know Taylor will be thrilled to beat on someone else for a change. He really does like the challenge of new flesh on occasion. New reactions. New triggers. Not needing to mess up his arm to hit someone as hard as he needs to hit me. lol.

It works out quite well that I’m feeling blah about another scene in public so soon cuz, while it’s definitely his choice when we play and if he plays with me or someone else, I have to admit he’s kind about it and generally won’t choose to give someone else what I’m needing if I’m needing it.

Since I don’t it works out wonderfully that we’ll all get some of what we need without me feeling all jealous and neglected. Right? Right. :)

Anyhow…

I actually have a “meaningful” post brewing in my brain after catching up on all the blogs I read and being inspired by a couple of them so now that we’re back (after a much shorter absence than we expected) look for it soon.

Out from my lurking corner, it was nice to read a new post on your blog - but a question off the D/s subject - lol - did you get the AT&T’s DSL that’s supposed to be as good as Cable - I’ve been tempted to switch from the Cable to be more frugal…but afraid because of I am spoiled with the speed of the cable… Hope it is okay that I am asking this? :)

Yup, yup. We upgraded to the higher speed DSL with ATT. I have to admit it’s not as fast as our cable connection at our old house where we had a great one. (The techs would be amazed when they’d come out to work on our stuff cuz we just should NOT have had a connection that fast) But it’s quite a bit faster than our cable connection was at this house.

Overall I think it’s about the same as most cable connections. Maybe a bit faster than some, maybe a bit slower than others but definitely fast enough that it doesn’t feel “slow” by any means.

If you call ATT they’ll give you the actual specs. They were pretty helpful and informative and you can get the info without having to actually switch. :)
