Hi from Connecticut!

Hey guys! Today we are taking a day off from shooting (Sarah has other appointments, and my butt could use a break anyway), so this is catch-up time. Reading email, trying to catch up somewhat with other blogs and with FetLife posts, and of course, updating here.

I'll start with this and then backtrack: I'm having a blast! :-)

Got up at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday for a 3:30 pickup. I had determined I was going to cram everything I had planned to pack into one big suitcase and my carryon, but I had to give up a few things, as there was way too much. As it was, I had to sit on my suitcase to get it to close.

The first flight was a breeze, as I was on the aisle and the center seat was empty. The extra space was a huge luxury! However, on the second flight, I was in the very last row (right by the restroom) and crammed up against the window by a nice, but big burly guy. With fresh tattoos on his left arm that he kept scratching. I finally offered him some lotion so he'd knock it off. There was no room left in the overhead, so I managed to shove my carryon under the seat, my purse at my feet and my book and water bottle in my lap. And I could not move. Fortunately, I was exhausted and was able to sleep much of the flight.

Paul and K (our host) picked me up at Hartford airport and took me back to K's house. It was snowy and freezing outside, but K's house was toasty warm, and he's been keeping the heat going 24/7. Plus, I have a space heater in my bedroom. All that fretting about not having warm clothes? It was all for naught. I haven't set foot outside since I got here. There is plenty of food and drink here, so we haven't gone out to eat, and that's fine by me. K even made chicken soup from scratch for us yesterday, loaded with meat and veggies and noodles. Heaven. There is filtered water, coffee, fruit, nonfat milk, cereal, lots of chocolate... I am a happy girl.

Yesterday, Paul and I shot five clips, with Sarah on the camera. She has gotten very good at working the other side of the camera and with directing, plus she edits and Photoshops and everything else. I am so impressed with how skilled she is. Anyway, we did some stuff for the Spanking Compendium, plus some role-play clips that will go on Paul's Clips4Sale site. (He's got a ton of different things going and is shooting with so many different people, it makes my head spin.) He and Sarah are even traveling to the UK to shoot with the models there. They are always on the go; Paul isn't going back to his house until March. That is such a foreign concept to me, being the homebody I am. Anyway, we had lots of laughs and silliness, got some great footage and photos and Paul and Sarah said I was one of the easiest models to work with. :-D  So much for my rep of being difficult -- HA!

I was glad I brought so many varieties of outfits -- I wore five different ones yesterday alone. Tomorrow, we are shooting content for Sarah's site, so she'll be in that as well, with K on the camera. Then we'll go out for dinner tomorrow night to celebrate, and Thursday afternoon I go home.

Sorry I don't have any pictures yet, but they're all on Paul's or Sarah's camera. I will get them mailed to me and when I come home, I'll sort through them and post some.

OH! I forgot to mention, there are two dogs here. K has a 12-year-old Doberman Pinscher named Cocoa and Sarah has a Chihuahua/terrier mix named Max. I adore dogs, so I've been having such fun with these critters. Max loves to play and is always bringing me his rope toy so I'll play tug-of-war with him. Both of them love to cuddle... last night, I was lying on the couch, and Cocoa settled in at my feet and Max on my stomach. Sarah took a couple of shots of that; I have to get those as well.

That's all I have for now, but I wanted to let y'all know I'm doing well and having a great time. I'm with incredible people and I feel like a celebrity. :-)  Plus all three of them have been keeping me in stitches laughing.

Hope everyone's having a great week so far!

  4. Zelle -- ah shucks :-). Paul wants me to help write a few scripts too! I have a feeling my "side career" may have a Renaissance.

    Libby -- me toooooo!

    Michael -- I can't have pets in my apartment, so any time I get to spend time with dogs (or cats), I'm like a little kid!

  6. Sounds like your career is in another exciting phase. Congrats! And what better way to get it jump started with a fun temp spanking "family."

    The time must be whizzing by when you can laugh and carry on with friends like those. Are you icing your bum at night or toughing it out? :)

  11. Hiya, Toots!!

    I'm delighted you are having such a wonderful time (ahem, cough) working!

    Paul has always been a damn decent fellow, and I'm glad all your hosts are showing you such a splendid time, and are without doubt thrilled with all you're showing them. You know, acting and stuff. :-D

    And yes, indeed, dogs are very fine people.

  12. Erica, I'm so happy for you! I wish I was there too. Normally it takes champagne for you to sound like this, and-

    Oh... that's it, isn't it? They are giving you champagne and chocolate. Very smart. Now I really wish I was there.

  13. Dave -- yeah, work. We all should have such fun work. :-)

    Danny -- I wish you were here too! I told Paul he should shoot with you and Sophie too, and he wants to! :-)

  16. Hi Erica,

    Ah, the life of a star... I'm delighted to hear that they are treating you like spanko royalty. Have fun and please bring us back some more stories and photos.

    Hugs,
    Bonnie

  17. Not even going to venture out just to say you did?

  18. Erica, I'm glad you are finding a variety of ways to keep warm. It actually hurt to breathe outside up here a few days ago. One of my dogs only uses his two right legs as he runs to find just the right spot to do his business. He's got to keep as many paws as possible off the cold snow.

    Looking forward to seeing the pics!

    Hugs,
    Hermione

  19. Craig -- oh, there will be plenty of bending over today! :-)

    Ronnie -- I really am; this has been such a joy.

    Bonnie -- star, schmar. ;-) I promise lots of pictures, for sure... I took some cute ones on my own camera and Sarah is going to give me a CD of all the others.

    Poppa -- actually, we did go out to dinner last night. They bundled me up in two coats. :-)

    Weave -- absolutely

    Hermione -- I'm very glad I don't have to walk the dogs here! The guys are doing that. These pups are such attention hounds; they've discovered a new sucker (me) and they're after me to play all the time!

  20. This sounds so wonderful. I did not think it was possible that I could think you were any more cool than I do all ready but now I find out you love dogs. You just shot up in my estimation.

    Now I feel like I am sucking up.

    So ... er ... boo shucks to you. :)

  21. Sounds like so much fun! Glad you're having a great time and I look forward to reading all about it when you are home.

    (PS: I can't believe you're here during one of the coldest weeks on record in the past several years...heehee!)

  22. Diva? I don't see any divas. LOL

    I have yet to think of you as a "diva" Erica. Neither do I think of you as a grinch. :-P

    I think of you as a neat lady having a lot of fun and doing what you like to do. So keep having fun and all that jazz.

    I look forward to what you will have for us when you get back. Have a safe trip.

  23. Poppy -- I adore dogs; I love any chance I get to be around them. Cats too!

    SueNY -- I know, right? Figures! We went out to dinner tonight and it started snowing again; I got to see it falling! :-)

    Bobbie Jo -- diva, no. But Grinch? Yup. Still, thank you for the vote of confidence. :-)

  24. Only a true professional such as yourself could have as much fun getting all this work done. You are definitely A-list as far as I'm concerned.

    Looking forward to the photos. Including the dogs. I love dogs also. I've met several dogs in my life I would put in my list of the top ten people I have ever met.

    Have a great flight home. Hopefully your bottom isn't so sore that you can't sit for that long. Or maybe it's better that it is.

  25. that dogs [and cats] have great taste has been confirmed once again. they gave you great honor.

    glad you had so much fun.

    this is the worst northeast winter since the 18th and 19th crntury, you'll have something to talk about for a long time.

    best,

    ddon

    it's nice to get home.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Jon -- I'm home! Ugh... flight home was tedious, but more on that later. Right now, I'm sleepy and hungry and must settle in. More tomorrow!

    ddon -- I really picked a good time to travel back East, didn't I? I couldn't believe the amount of snow... piles and piles and piles of it.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Erica,

    Glad you are home safe. I look forward to what you will have for us when you get back to normal. Have a good rest. They say we usually have to rest up from the vacation and yours was a working one. Fun, though!

    BTW, I agree with Jon.

  29. Bobbie Jo -- I will definitely post something today. I have three CDs of photos to sort through, so those will have to wait for a little while. But I have a few shots off my own camera I can put up in the meantime! :-)

    Jade -- please do be patient with me, as I have a lot to catch up on and I can't get to the MySpace messages right away. But I will do my best, I promise!
