The Second Price
There’s a blog I enjoy a lot called Raptitude. Raptitude is “a blog about getting better at being human.” Yesterday’s reading, Everything Must be Paid for Twice, really resonated with me. The “second price” of everything is the effort we must expend to enjoy, or benefit from, the things we…
It’s Been a Minute
All right, more than one. And yes, it seems like every time I come back I say, “hey, I’ve been gone awhile, but I’m trying to come back!” And then I never really do. Call it a lack of inspiration…the pandemic…the breakup…a loss of my sense of self as a…
#sinfulsunday – loved
Maybe I should title this “my legs this evening,” but that doesn’t evoke quite the sentiment am looking for. His hand on my bare thigh, after I’d been out all day on a date with another man – not possessive, but comforting, reassuring. “Here you are loved.” Kiss the lips…
Endings, & Self-Care
As the “hiatus” with my kink partner looks more and more like it’s an “ending,” I’ve been thinking a lot about self-care, and trying to practice it as much as I am capable of doing. Sometimes, no amount of self-care helps, and there’s just the tears, the self-recriminations, the anxiety,…
a to z challenge – p is for pikachu
But probably not the Pikachu you may know (and, if you’re me, love – yep, I’m a Pokemon Go player, and I wanna catch’em all! Okay, I’ll stop there. But seriously, if you play and want to friend me, I’m PiecesofJade on there too – I always like to gather…
Innies, Outties & Three-Ways
This post probably isn’t anything about what you think it is, considering the title – though things that go in and out and three-ways are delightful topics, and ones I think about often. (I know, you probably thought I was talking about belly buttons, didn’t you?) But no, this post…
The Boys, Me and Keith Urban
Another post from A Poly Life that rightly deserves its place here. Unfortunately the video that I originally linked to in the post is no longer available, so I’ll have to make do with a pic from that night. Somehow, I don’t think ya’ll mind/ đŸ˜‰ (From January 2010) I…
Acceptance
I was browsing through some old posts over on a A Poly Life and ran across this one. I don’t know if I ever linked to it from here, but even if I did, I think it deserves a place of its own here, since it involves BDSM dynamics (at…
I Suck. (And not in the good way. Tho okay, I do that too.)
I was whining the other day about not being invited to a friend’s birthday celebration. It wasn’t a very loud whine, more a whimper of self-pity, but nonetheless, it was something that, if only momentarily, made me feel sad. Why don’t I get invited to play in any of their…
Pieces of Jade & A Poly Life – A Match Made in Heaven?
I’m exhausted, dispirited, disillusioned and disheartened. (Any more dis-s? Give me a minute…I could probably think of a few. On second thought, that just makes me discouraged. Sigh.) Normally I wouldn’t post this here. This is my place for sex, right? Where I get raunchy and nasty and dirty and…
