Its all in the vids this week darlins! A two parter….just the usual rambling on about one thing or another. Hey that’s what blogs are supposed to be right???
Oh and btw…here are the two links I mention in the videos. Enjoy!
Seems no matter how much I may grouse about how I can't wait until Christmas is over and life can return to normal, I always go through the post holiday letdown. Can't be helped when so much planning and effort is all targeted at two big days for weeks and weeks leading up. My dear doggie of nearly thirteen years is near his end as well and that certainly doesn't help lift one out of the usual dose of the downs. A big sweet golden retriever who, like every other doggie I have owned (the furry kind..not YOU doggies) has taught Me about the joys of unconditional love and unbridled generosity of spirit. Shame they can't stay with us through our whole lives, but then we would only know maybe one of them. The only up side to such an unjust lifespan is that we get to touch and be touched by more wonderful creatures and their personalities. I will miss him terribly when he goes.
That being said, all My travel plans are of course on hold as many of you know. Just can't fly off and leave him in this shape. So I will hole up for a while here and tend to what else....msdivinyl.com LOL Until you have bitten off developing and keeping up one of these babies (with the help of My wonderful web developer richie of course) you really have no idea how much time, sweat, money and energy goes into its upkeep and nurturing. I didn't....but I sure as hell do NOW!! So I hope you are enjoying all this and WILL LEAVE ME A COMMENT ON THE FORUM TO THAT EFFECT! hehe
Those of you familiar with My journals and blogs over the years remember that I sometimes get involved in these trans beauty contests over at the Fit4tg yahoo group. As a matter of fact, I won their first Best Legs contest years ago. Empowered by that, I continued to enter that as well as their Prettiest Face, and even Best Buns contests. I would occasionally win one or come in second, third or fourth to someone. Then the group moderators decided to have just one year long contest for each category. Well a year has come and gone and I am still in the running for Best Legs and Prettiest Face, as well as a new category for Best Swimsuit. Hooray!
Very nice since the pool of contestants was culled from over 200 in most cases down to 15. And believe Me...as word of this group has spread, the competition gets tougher and tougher. So I am not insincere when I say I am gratified to have made it to the Finals.
Check the group out. Its one of the more active and fun ones out there in the yahoo universe and there are certainly lots of Us Girls posting content on there. And btw….I am Not asking for your vote. If you do join….vote for who you think deserves it. Pure and simple.
That’s about it for now dears. Hope you all are faring well and will be in touch again soon!

Divinyl Does Vegas, Day Two
I hope you enjoy this rambling, perhaps even exhaustively detailed video blog. Yes I know I can tend to draw a story out with the best of them, but indulge Me. Beats sitting around watching economic experts tell you how much worse things are going to get before they get better!
No point in recapping everything that is already in the video...so I will let it do the talking for Me this week.
Oh btw....members....after watching Mistress D's Sensual Coffee Chat in this week's Video Updates, you will be glad like I am that the old webcam used to shoot this blog has found its proper place deep in the storage drawer.
Last January My slave 'd' treated Me to a wonderful getway to Sin City. Four fun filled days in this adult playland. I have been to Vegas about nine or ten times but this would be slaveboy's first visit there. I had so much I wanted to show him and knew I could only scratch the surface in the time W/we had and still leave time for sleeping, eating, beating and torturing!!!
Most of the story is told through the blog video here and the captions to this week's updates in the photo section. There are over 150 pictures from this wonderful trip, so stay tuned for more in the coming weeks.
By the time W/we would finish, W/we will have attended Fashionistas, Zumanity, a Carrot Top concert (yes....I am NOT kidding. I resisted at first but slaveboy really, really wanted to go....and it turned out to be hilarious!)
Ate at Mon Ami Gabi and pounded some wonderful steak frites while watching the dancing fountains of the Bellagio, took a ride up to the top of the Eiffel Tower and shopped at the wonderful shops at the Venetian and Wynn Resort. Oh....and.....went to the famous Ghost Bar on top of The Palms. VERY SWEET! slaveboy dropped a lot of change that night as we slid over there from Zumanity, where he sprung for those very nice loveseats. Also took in a new show Fashionistas with great costumes and a fetishy subject matter. And checked out the neighboring club which is Vegas first alt lifestyle friendly venue.
All in all a wonderful trip. And hey....its where Good Cop, Bad Cop was filmed!
Enjoy all the vids and pics from this wonderful getaway.
I hope you all had a pleasant and enjoyable Christmas! I won't bore you with the details of My family get togethers. Thats like inviting someone to your home and ambushing them with an Amway meeting! But there was some excitement afoot, most notably the Dungeon Party at My friends Heather and Astria's.
A good turnout and fun crowd....and all roads eventually led to the dungeon, where Mistress Astria delighted in torturing/teasing a variety of female subjects with the violet wand. Her fave attachment for the wand is....well....herself! She grasps a little thing about the shape of a cigar and it tranfers the static charge to her body. So she can use her fingertips, nipples, any skin surface pressed up against the submissive's.
There was one particular volunteer who was very very enthusiastic in her enjoyment of Astria's attentions. The dungeon was filled with her gyrations, screams and moans. She was standing in spread eagle fashion facing a large leather hammock type chair while Astria administered attentions from behind. Well this seemed a waste of a perfectly good opportunity to Me, so I sashayed over and plopped down in the swing and reclined back, placing My heel tips on her nipples and drove them in as Astria pushed from behind. No place for her to go. Then I pushed the pointed toe of My pump up into her and massaged her clit with it while torturing her nipple with the other. It got quite a ride and a lot of screaming and convulsing as she came over and over. All great fun. I also met Mistress Phoenix from Louisville and did some photo shoot of her (such a giver).
New Year's was spent with vanilla friends, a small but fun group and I saw in the New Year slamming a particularly potent shot that I first discovered at one of Ronnie Rho's premiere parties for the Rho Show at the Little Bit Bar in Cincy. Imagine 151 rum with a float of Firewater, a 100 proof hot cinnamon schnaaps. Well it feels like you snorted wasabi. Damn near blows the top of your head off! But I do recommend it if you seem to be lagging behind in the fun department.
Here's to a great year here at msdivinyl.com! So sooo much good stuff will roll out. Keep up your membership because you don't want to miss a beat....pardon the pun!

Holiday Wishes
Wow its been hard to get into the spirit of the season this year. I worked at a Mall store during and shortly after college. It was easy to get into the spirit back then. Hell I was smack dab in the middle of it. Buying presents hand over fist, going to every Christmas open house, play, concert that came down the pike. I remember My sisters joking about the time I was so tired that on Christmas day, I fell asleep in the middle of opening a present. And I did!
Now I work in My own small business with one employee. I've gotten worn out with all that I used to immerse Myself in and would rather just relax and veg these days instead of maniacally pursuing the Christmas season's offerings.
Thats why My just completed weekend in Louisville with My slave was sooo special. I brought up a small tree and Wwe set it up in the suite at the Galt House. Had an absolutely wonderful dinner at Buck's in Old Louisville which gave Me a chance to show d around the St. James Court area. Beautiful old victorian houses. Wow they just don't build them like that any more. So much style and distinctive architecture.
Went to Connections and took in the drag show, visited the new Museum Hotel downtown which is a real gem, went to Glassworks to watch them create beautiful blown glass works of art, and just got to relax and share this magical time of year.
Had My A game on too My friends. Put together two rockin good outfits and took a crapload of great pics.
Unfortunately with all of the deadlines and pressures coming to bear, there has been no time to edit. So you will have to jump in the time machine with Me and go back to last year and the year before for some Christmas memories. I cut a video when W/we went to Cincinnati last year for O/our little Christmas weekend and it is included in this week's journal in two parts below. All three of this weeks photo set updates to the Member Section are of Christmases past.
So let Me take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. To all of you who ventured along life's path with Me this year, and who made it so wonderful in the process....My heartfelt thanks!
TRAVEL
I will be curtailing the whirlwind travel schedule a bit during the holidays. I will be in Louisville the weekend of December 12th. Louisville friends and admirers are welcome to join Me at Connections that Saturday evening for some clubbing fun.
BALTIMORE LOOKBACK This trip will merit it's own journal update as soon as I complete the pic and vid editing. But I did want to let you know that the warehouse beat down DID go off and produced a very intense session. Certainly enough to make some of you squeamish!! I learned from some mistakes in the filming process and will certainly do a better job with that next time. And there WILL be a next time!!!
SESSIONS
For the remainder of the holiday season, I regret that My weekends are filled. I will be happy to conduct sessions on weekdays this month with advance notice and of course email and cam training sessions.
you know the drill.....JOIN the site, complete the Application to Serve on the Sessions and Contact Page, and include specific dates you desire training. you will them be instructed on how to deposit tribute and get your session booked.
Thats it for now! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
btw...tip for next year. I had become so sick of the plug filled promotional mess that the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade has become that I had given up watching. Well I found that NBC was the real culprit. As the favored network coverage, they set up right in front of Macy's where everyone stops to do those awful lip sync'd promos for plays and new CD launches. Ugh!! Well I realized this year that CBS was covering the parade also. And they actually covered the floats, balloons, and BANDS!!! YEA!!!!!!!
Ciao for now,

Autumn in New York
Well you have already heard Me drone on about how Fall is by far My favorite season. The culmination was always Halloween, which in the bad ol' days brought a depressing crash certainly equal to any post Christmas letdown I ever experienced. Those were the days when that was the ONLY day I would have the opportunity to try out My passion (dressing en femme that is). I would spend weeks, sometimes months devising, planning, acquiring and honing the perfect outfit. It was a wonderful process and took what would have been one night of joy and stretched it far beyond that.
But, as I would sit and sit after coming back from the clubs and dread taking off that outfit and scraping off the makeup I had so meticulously applied, I could only think of having to wait another year to do it all over again. A very sad process.
Luckily, I have blossomed since those days and can avoid such a letdown. In 2007 as a matter of fact, I had something equally as fun to look forward to. A long weekend in NYC courtesy of an admirer slave in waiting there.
I planned the trip to start just days after Halloween. Unfortunately, this wound up being the New York Marathon weekend. I had no idea of this until later, but it explains why the hotels were so unbelievably expensive. My slave paid a King's ransom to get Me up there and then got to spend precious little time with Me due to family commitments and the lightning onset of a very bad cold.
But W/we spent a nice evening getting acquainted. Never left the hotel and he was able to indulge some of his fave passions such as footworship and toilet servitude.
The next day was a beautiful and sunny one spent out and about in the West Village around Bleeker. Although I must have been insane wearing five inch heels to tromp around the pavement all afternoon. Did get to visit Purple Passion, a great fetish boutique in the area and scored some great gloves. But then slave started to really show signs that his cold was soon about to swamp him. I would spend another night in the room which just seemed an unfathomable thing to do when staying in one of the most exciting cities in the world. I would spend a good amount of time online trying to chase down at least one of those many, many who had told Me over the years......"If you EVER come to New York, PLEASE let Me serve you!!!" Funny how they all disappear or become otherly occupied when the time comes. Soooooo, I subsisted on a very large room service order and that was that.
The next day...Saturday...there was a family event My slave had to attend which precluded him from spending any time with Me that day. So, with his blessing, I invited My alpha slave 'd' to join Me that day so I would not be alone in the big city. I felt a bit self conscious about doing this, but then he seemed to realize it was not right to leave Me alone and up in the air that day.
So 'd' motored up from Baltimore to join Me and W/we spent a nice albeit frigid day sightseeing. Any idea how cold it is up on top of one of those double decker buses when its about 40 something outside? It actually got colder and started to sleet at one point. But d had never been there and you know....I am SUCH A GIVER!!!
Did some photo work back at the hotel and then I slid into My black catsuit and thigh highs for dinner. YES...that IS as ridiculous as it sounds! But the plan was to make My maiden voyage to Club Paddles, a venerable old S/m club (Actually the last one operating in the city)and it was very close to where we were to have dinner. It just didn't merit a trip back to the hotel to change, so I just bridged the two events.
Its odd how much the city has changed since a trip I made some eight years earlier. Back then the fetish shops were plenty and there were at least three big S/m clubs operating. The Vault, Hellfire and Paddles. But all those seedy meatpacking district neighborhoods they thrived in have all become targets of yuppie urban renewal now. Fashionable and Expen$ive hotels, boutiques and restaurants have moved in, raised the property values and forced those kinds of businesses out. Paddles remains the holdout, and from what I hear, they are hanging on by their fingernails.
A so so dinner in a great table with lots of atmosphere and then W/we were off to find Paddles. As you will see in the video blog from this weekend, I had My doubts on what to expect! I was actually pleasantly surprised. Lots of rooms, equipment and people. There was a b.y.o.b bar there which was great and I got to meet dana, a very nice and mannerly gent manning the bar. I felt very welcome and actually met Domme Dietrich, who I was familiar with from her videos done with the folks at Club Dom. (see My links page). Very beautiful, very mean and very personable. The kind of lady I model Myself after. Who knows...someday the stars may align and We will do some session or vid work together.
I took d up on the main stage and did a very mean trample session on him. Unfortunately, they are very pregnant about filming in there so I was unable to capture any of this. They did allow some still photography, but had to clear out the area to do so. But I appreciate Sir Michael, the owner, allowing us to do this. It is a great place to shoot with all the wonderful dungeon atmosphere.
All in all, a great day and night. I said goodbye to d and hello to j the next morning. Surprised they didn't run over each other in the hall!! A quick breakfast and a bon voyage 'pleasuring' from slave j and I was on My way back home. A great capper to a great Autumn.
This weeks gallery updates are from this wonderful weekend and there were some goodies in the bunch. And you know how to get to see those?????? THATS RIGHT!!!!!!
Well I did not have time to bask in the afterglow of visiting My beloved Nawlins before I was looking down the throat of traveling to Baltimore, home of My deserving and dedicated alpha slave ‘d’. This turned out to be quite a 360. Part of that was no doubt due to circumstances. I was in New Orleans on conference, not in Divinyl mode (although at times desperately wishing I was).
For those of you unfamiliar with what being Divinyl…or any other transgender person for that matter… entails, it involves a great deal of time planning outfits, packing those and makeup and implements and equipment. Sometimes, most of the time, involves packing several boxes to ‘send ahead’ due to the ever increasing restrictions and fees for that second bag. So the front end is considerably more taxing. Then….when I get there, I can count on an average of three hours a day in front of the mirror, scraping and painting, and infinitely more time donning the day and night’s armor than I would spend casually throwing on some khakis and a sweatshirt. Then comes getting My mind right. This involves the process of getting My Diva on, My sadistic juices flowing, My exhibitionist jones going.
If it sounds like I am whining, I don’t mean to. Nothing beats three, four, five day immersed in Divinyl Diva-ism! But it is time and energy consuming. NOW….couple that with landing in a land I knew relatively little about and that would prove to lack a great deal of the southern history and charm I had immersed Myself in the week before.
The usual rush. I don’t get to the Embassy Suites until around 6. I didn’t get ready until nearly 8:30 by the time I unpack, shower and doll up. A potential new friend I met on collarme.com has been calling throughout the day. The plan was to meet this brown eyed wonder with luscious full, pouty lips at the Club Hippo. I will spare you the details but none of this would work out. There is always tomorrow…figuratively!
I am sure Baltimore is full of great eateries, but not too many t friendly ones. All those crab joints are kind of sports bar-ish and I avoid those venues like the plague. So W/we bow to the chains and eat at Chang’s. Very good. Then head to the Hippo where there is a local contest going on . Not sure the name but one of those where the trannie showgirls battle it out for some meaningless title. But W/we meet a gay couple who are very fun and friendly and have a good time. Then its off for a night of photo shooting in Canton, downtown and Fell’s Point. Lots of great places here. Brick streets, chain link fences, old cathedrals etc. But it was a miserable cold and rainy night. So lots of hopping in and out of the car, trying to snag a few shots before getting soaked. The exercise was worth it. I came away with some great shots. The outfit I chose brought a lukewarm reaction from My slave, but he would learn to LOVE it about halfway through the evening. Location, location, location!!! LOL!!!
The reason for this trip was to film a harsh session in a warehouse setting, which My slaveboy had access to. I allude to this in the video blog components of this week’s journal updates. Saturday night was spent scouting out the location and planning the flow of events. Several bumps in the night and a mysterious vehicle’s headlights got My slave a bit spooked, so Wwe held off until Sunday morning to do this. A bit under the gun, I was not at My absolute best, but it was still something else. Cold, echo-y, and empty…it was soon filled with the hammer of heels, whoosh of whips, gasps of My slave chained to a cold steel I beam. Music of the night….or in this case….morning.
All in all, a very enjoyable and productive weekend. You will see the results roll out soon. I don’t think you will be disappointed!!!

Reflections On The Upcoming Trip to Baltimore, My Sadistic Side, part 1
When My slave d first brought up the idea of coming to Baltimore and utilizing a warehouse shooting facility, all sorts of imagery danced through My brain. I have long been a fan of a Japanese produced series of bdsm videos under the name Love N Boots. Many were shot in abandoned warehouses. Dark, atmospheric, delapidated. They were a perfect backdrop to the unbridled sadism and cruelty of the gorgeous Asian Dommes who systematically dismantle their victims. If the genius Tim Burton were into producing fetish films, these would be the kind of locations he would choose to craft his magic!
So needless to say I jumped at the chance. As you can see from these little talking head vids, I was already ramping up for the occasion.
NOTE: As the journal is now public, I realize that many of you who visit here are friends, fellow t ladies or just trans admirers, with little to no interest in the S/m arts. For those of you who find this sort of talk unsettling, at some point in watching these videos you may feel like hitting the Stop button. Fully understood. Just talk, but somewhat graphic and perhaps unsettling to some.
