1) I've finished physical therapy, although I still have a slight hitch in my stride if I walk too fast. And I went back to belly dance last night. It was owie but do-able. And I'm *so* bloody happy to have the all-clear to do whatever exercise I want.

2) Now I can focus on getting back into shape. A pair of leather pants and a tattoo are calling to me as my rewards... And a new corset, eventually... I just need to remember those things when the chocolate calls to me with its siren song. I need a dominatrix personal trainer.

3) Bought some new tops today. I really wanted some of the cute peasant-style strappy tank tops but FUCK! Those things, even the XLs, aren't made for someone with tits my size. Even if the rest of the shirt is huge in the stomach and shoulders, it doesn't cover my boobs. The world is so unfair to DDDs. :(

4) I scheduled dates and reserved rooms for the sex workshops I'll be doing. It's really real! Go me!

i can so relate with number 4 being an F cup myself they so dont make tops for us, either that or they want us all to show everything when we wear them.

No kidding! It's all spilling out the top (in a bad way) or the seam-line hits somewhere near the nipple instead of under the breast. Feh. Time for corsets to make a come-back, I think. ;)

Yeah for better ankles andbeing able to belly dance again. Just remember the difference between good healing owie and bad owie.

Leather and corset. A worthwhile goal. As good as PVC.

No, no more fair than it is to big women who are taller than 5'7".

Much goodness for the workshops.

Mmmm... PVC... Good idea. ;)

And an excellent point that women's clothes aren't made for anyone of any real size, big or small, tall or short. Clearly we need individual tailors....

Thank you! *hug*

Friends of my are putting together a web based business called Green Fairy. Among other things they are going to try to carry less.. mainstream... clothing for womon of size. I got a look at some of what they were planning. It looks like fun.

I'll be pimping them as soon as they have it off the ground.

Whooo! Do that - I'm interested. :)

I need a dominatrix personal trainer.

When you find her (I'd even take a him!) will you share with me? That may be the only thing that gets me off my sorry butt enough to exercise consistently.

I have often thought that if personal trainers at the gym were all dressed in leather and were nice but demanding and offered sexual favors in return for the torture they put us through... that I, for one, would be a hell of a lot more motivated. ;)

I'll let you know.

*cheers* I am so happy for you. I know this is going to work. I'll be at your first book signing.

As for the boobs - I sympathize. Everything is made for women with B cup or smaller breasts. Most shirts I try on, the seam that should be beneath the breast runs right over my nipple. *grumblegrrrr...*

*hugs*

*smooch* I couldn't do it without all the encouragement from my friends - it really means so much to me.

Exactly the same boob problem. *grump* We need someone to make a line of shirts for the ample-bosomed women. ;)

Now there would be a money maker. I had to buy a two piece swimsuit this year with the top three sizes larger than the bottom and then take the straps in a good three inches to make it fit. Grrrr...

I blame Kate Bosworth.

Hehehe - me too.

Do we get to see said bikini at one of the retreats? ;)

Oh I don't know. I don't like threatening my friends. They might not come. LOL ;)

It's *incentive*, dear, not a threat. ;)

LOL - you haven't seen me in it yet.

Any chance you can come to Orlando in November?

I'd like to, but the old $ issue is what is holding me back. With no income it's hard to justify the trip in September to TFF and then to Florida in November. We'll see. I *want* to.

Well I'm picturing you standing in front of a room full of women interacting, laughing and bonding at a sold out sexuality workshop.

See you in November!

Late, but I'm finally getting caught up.

Woohoo - end of physio - that's worth a celebration. (Of course, you overdid it with the rum... bah.)

I don't know whot the fuck is designing shirts these days. I'm not that big, but I'm straining at a large. Is the pre-teen market so big that only actual girls are supposed to fit into the clothes? And the thighs - who has hips and thighs so skinny they can fit into half the pants they make nowadays??? (Girls who haven't gone through puberty yet...)

Up until I was 19 or 20, I used to buy my jeans in the boys department. It was cheaper, and less tax. But then something happened and I grew hips. Destroyed my drag career. I was devastated. Now I like 'em, even if it does make it hard to find comfy clothes that fit really well.

Real-life sex workshops! Oh, how I wish I lived near you.

No, wait. That would mean I'd be living in the States... (no offense intended, but I'm Canadian through and through ;)

Correct - they are desiging clothes (again) for 13 year old girls/Kate Bosworth/Keira/etc/etc. Even at 13, I was not that skinny and the Breast Fairy, well she visited early and often. :P

Rum - well, now I know a shot is 1/8 of a cup, not 1/4th. A good thing to know.

You could always do the phone workshops - a 1-800 number is free even from Canada, right? (No pressure, I promise.)

Went shopping today and almost got stuck in a dress which was supposed to be a large. Yeah, it was fine. Unless you happen to have, you know, tits.

Actually, I'm kinda hoping the tits will go down a bit now that I'm off the pill again. Tops that used to be nice and sexy are downright sleazy now. Frog is enjoying it very much, though. He teases me about the bazoombas. The Dwarf doesn't seem to mind much either, but I'd really like to fit things in a somewhat decent manner.

I'm not sure about the 1-800. I'll think about that.
