We’re up and out of bed on this sunny Friday morning. We’re up, and the cats are curled up. Podrick did his thing this morning, generally being huge and noisy. He snuggled me a few times– he actually came up to snuggle more than he went for the window.

Yesterday was a couch day. Shawshank noticed we had a 7 day tease of AppleTV in our Prime, so we watched the first season of “Silo“. That’s all that we can see for free. We obviously didn’t learn our lesson from the last time this happened, when we noticed the free trial and got into “Severance“. I’m trying to think of it like it’s a Netflix series: really good, but cancelled after one season, because I sure as hell won’t see any more of it.

I also bleached my hair, finally achieving a good amount of lift. I’m not sure what color(s) I’ll do, mainly because I’m not sure what’s in the closet. Honestly, I usually don’t know what I’ll do until I’ve got the gloves on. I have a lot of blue, because I snagged a bunch of blue Splatt kits when I found them on clearance for $2. That’ll be a decision for future me. I won’t do anything today, since it’s a work night, but probably tomorrow.

My stream dudes can deal with blonde tonight, although I do think I should try to do my nails. Manicure or not, I’ll get on in the afternoon and hope to make some good money. Or just money in general.

let’s sit in undies all day

[Current Mood | okay okay ]

Good morning, world. It’s time to get up and greet the day. The cats have taken up their stations by each door, watching birds. I don’t know exactly what the forecast has in store, but it’s starting off nice enough. Once the sun came up, Podrick came up to bed for cuddles for regular, hourly sessions. I’d love a return to his baby days, when I could curl up and hold him against my chest for the night.

We enjoyed the day off. Shawshank had some business to handle with his mom, so he did that, then picked me up. We went over to Shady Acres to borrow the vacuum. I was given free reign to pick through the stash of embroidery supplies for colors, and I think I’ve got almost everything I need. I definitely took enough for the ground, but sky colors are still iffy. Neither of our yarn stashes had midtones that are blue enough, they all lean a bit green. I have one more cloud to finish in the sky, and I’ll see if there’s any at the sewing shop in Slightly BiggerTown when we go out this weekend. In the meantime, I can work on the non-sky shit.

We have another day off, and it’s going to be a nice, quiet day with not much more than coffee and contemplation and laundry. I want to bleach my hair and fix my nails. The little secondhand shop is open, so we’ll see if anyone’s donated good treasures this week.

Good morning, world. We’re still sunny, although I am huddled in a hoodie for the moment. Podrick is watching the small birds breakfasting in the front yard. A fatass chickadee yelled at him. The crows haven’t arrived yet.

My shift went better than Monday’s attempt. I made more than 12 tokens. I opened up the chat again, and within the first hour or so had made most of the money I’d make for the night. I’m having a lot more fun now that I have a solid “show”, even if I don’t show much of anything.

For 1 token, I’ll say “wow” like Owen Wilson.

Some guy kept calling me mistress, and I could get used to that. I tortured him for a bit, then logged off entirely at a pivotal moment. I’m pretty sure I made him cry. As a reward for branching out of my comfort zone, I treated myself to an Irn Bru with dinner. I edited a couple of silly clips for Fansly, got them uploaded, and played Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 for the rest of the night.

There’s a crew working in town. They have big machinery that’s making noise, and I expect it’ll continue for most of today. The noise didn’t stop until after 7pm yesterday. Thankfully, they don’t start too early. We have the next two days off, and not a lot planned. Shawshank‘s going to bring the vacuum over from Shady Acres, so we can have the floors in an acceptable state before his mom comes over for dinner. I need to put some clothes on to go over as well, as I want to raid her embroidery thread stash.

shit I forgot a title

[Current Mood | blah blah ]

Good morning, y’all. The sun has returned!

I had a shit stream yesterday. I started things a little earlier, since Shawshank was working holiday hours. Both cats were being awful during setup, leaving me in a shitty mood when I actually started the stream. In an attempt to lean into the dommy aspect of my overall vibe, I locked chat to tippers only. I didn’t even super-lock it – the minimum was 1 token – but it was unbearably quiet for me. I’ll unlock it today, and work on my vocal “encouragement” skills instead.

I also modified some of the rotating notices that show up in chat to explain the rules of my game, but the app I use only handles 10 notices, and I feel like half of them don’t pop up. I found a new app that can hold 20 messages this morning, and added some more encouraging notices. I’ve unlocked chat again, and between the open chat and new notices, we’ll see how it goes tonight.

After tonight’s shift, we have two days off. We’re having Shawshank‘s mom over for dinner tomorrow.

it’s the grays, it’s always the grays

Good morning, world. The new week is dawning and it’s fucking gray. The comfortable heat and sunshine have been replaced with 60℉ temps and overcast skies. Three of the local crows are chilling in the front yard, eating some puffed wheat and sunflower seeds.

I had a slow Sunday, while Shawshank was busy as hell at work. I put on “ER” while I put on my makeup, watching 3 episodes and having lunch before setting up the bedroom for a stream. Doctors were stabbed, and I needed to watch the arc play out. Nurse Hathaway had to report private school students for having rainbow party orgies and spreading HPV. I love how these shows are little time capsules of pop culture and fear mongering bullshit of the time.

Work went ok. The room is getting busier, and I’m talking nonstop. I’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback from guys, the only negative comments have come from people who want more than I offer. I’ve always run my room in a way that lets everyone talk, but mommy-dommy JOI milf might need to put some emphasis on the dommy and tighten up the rules a bit. I’m also going to redo a lot of my rotating notices before I go back online, so the rules of the game are clear, and maybe adjust my stream goals.

We spent the rest of the night on the couch, relaxing. Shawshank made us breakfast for dinner while we watched day 2 of Summer Slam. I had a bacon and egg and cheese sandwich, which was absolutely delicious. We watched Chelsea Green win a belt. An hour or so after dinner, my body decided “we REEEAALLLY don’t like eggs anymore”, and sent me running to the bathroom. Having expelled my dinner, I took a hot shower and curled up in a slightly hungry ball on the couch.

Shawshank has the day shift again today. I’m going to assume a human form and make men whimper.
