Leap Day

So I logged in late this morning to my AOL address and found 135 returned emails. WTF?? I also got several emails from friends, all with the same message: "You've been hacked."

Ugh. My apologies to anyone who got funky spam email from me last night or this morning. I have changed my password and that seems to have halted the insanity. Also running a full spyware/malware scan. Oh, and to add insult to injury, I just got a rent increase.

This has not been a good few days -- not for me, not for some of my friends either. ST's car repairs are very expensive -- we're talking thousands. John has to go back to the doctor on Friday to get fluid drained from his knee. Family issues with another friend; play partner issues with yet another. And the beat goes on. As you can see, I deleted yesterday's post. I was in a vulnerable state and it was just too personal, and too damned abstract and weird. I did save it, along with all the kind comments people posted. So thank you.

But enough of that. In honor of Leap Day, I'm going to leap forward into some upcoming fun and happy times.

A week from this Saturday, the lovely Lily Starr will be in town, and I will be shooting Clips4Sale content with her and her boyfriend. The message she sent was a keeper, so complimentary and sweet (and the timing was perfect, as I got it around the same time I got that @#$%ing restraining order, so it cheered me up). So I will meet with them at their hotel and we're doing three scenes. (She usually shoots both M/F and F/F, but in this case, they'll be all M/F.) We were bouncing around a couple of ideas for plots, and here's mine -- I'll be taken to task for getting involved in online flame wars (straight out of the pages of FetLife). Rather timely, don't you think? We could have lots of fun with it. Of course, no names will be mentioned, but our friends will know! (snicker)

And in less than two months -- Boardwalk Badness!! I still can't believe we're going. But the tickets are paid for, the hotel room is booked (good thing, because they ran out of rooms) and so is our flight. I think I scored a good flight; non-stop both ways, $280 each. I figured I'd better lock that in, rather than take a chance that I could find something cheaper down the line. In fact, when I first found that flight, it was $258, but I didn't book it right way -- I waited to check with John. He said fine, absolutely, grab it. So I went back the next day, and damned if the same flight hadn't gone up to $280. In one freaking day!

The buzz is already starting on FetLife. So many people going, so much to do. I actually talked John into taking an extra day off, and we're flying in Thursday afternoon. We're going for broke -- it's a very expensive weekend and I doubt we'll repeat it next year, but this time, we're doing it all the way! Arriving Thursday, leaving Monday morning. I have a feeling I'm going to have to declare Thursday night a socialize-only, no-spank evening; have to pace myself, after all. I'm going to be among some incredible spankers, and meeting new ones (well, new to me). Mustn't let my eyes get bigger than my bottom.

Fasten your seat belts, kids. I'm going to be Neurotic Nellie for the next couple of months. (Yeah, I know. How is that any different than how I usually am? sigh)

ST asked me last night how I was. I said I'll be better next Monday, which is true. I can't wait to see him, and to get some of my favorite kind of stress release. For today, however, the gym will have to suffice.

RIP, Daydream Believer.

  1. Somehow I missed the news you guys were going to Boardwalk Badness! HAVE A GREAT TIME! It's a hoot!

    As for Leap Day, if you haven't seen the Leap Day episode of 30 Rock you CANNOT miss it! It's awesome hilarity!

    Hope you're doing better, doll.

  2. I don't think I got anything from you today.. so no spam worries there.. but many of my comments to my last blog, I just found in my spam folder! (grrrrrrrrr! that is SO maddening!)

    Oh ho hum .. I'm not going to BBW this year (sniffs) - then again, you'll be so overwhelmed we'd not have any real quality time anyhow! LOL - I need to just fly the hell out to LA to visit you! haha!

    So, I'm saving all my normal yearly party money that I would normally spend to go to BBW, CCM, and give or take one or two other close ones to me in south Florida, to get to The World Spanking Party in Spain in October! Of course If I'm going all that way, I'm making that a two wk trip! I want to visit Andalusian and Lusitano horse farms too! (heehee) Maybe I could write that trip off as business then?? Hmmm??

    YAY! You're shooting with Lily and Robert! OMG! He's a hoot! You'll have fun shooting the one-liners off to Robert! Love the scenario you've come up with.. how apropos!

    AND WHAT???!!! Craig is not going to BBW!! Oh no! How on earth will that party every hold up?? (grins)

    ReplyDelete
  3. Craig -- this sounds like you're NOT going to BBW -- is that true? :-( Nooo!

    Zelle -- dammit! I'm sorry you won't be going. Well, you're probably right; not much opportunity for any quality time at these parties. You saw how nutso I was at FMS (and you were so very understanding about that -- thank you).

    You know, these parties are really starting to tick me off! It's hard enough to have to fly across the country and go through all that rigmarole and expense, but now you have to leave the country? Get a freaking passport to attend a SPANKING PARTY?? Argh!

  4. OMG! Please, please, PLEASE say you are playing a woman named Annie! :-D

  5. Kat -- ROFL! No, I'll be myself. I'll get to say all the things I REALLY wanted to say. It will be a lovely last word on the subject.

  6. That shoot is sure to be a laugh fest! :)Lily seems like a really cool, fun person too.
    You don't have to censor yourself there. Brat it up but good, Miss Scott!

    I totally understand your BBW nervousness. And I am doing the opposite of what what recommended re: booking spankings well before the dates. I'd rather wing it and actually talk to the people I get to meet before getting to any spankings. Too much travel coordination for me to fret about as it is-to worry about getting there late, delayed and missing a spanking time- I can't so it! LOL!

    ReplyDelete
  7. Kelly -- I never book spanking dates in advance for a party. I never know where the party is going to take me, who will be there, who I'll meet, and it's nerve-wracking enough without having extra commitments.

  8. WOW Erica,BBW sound's like so much fun i wish i could go,then i could get spanked by some really cool spanker's and meet you and John :-)I know you will have fun shooting with Lily she is so much fun.That is TERRIBLE that ST's car will cost so much to fix :-( I wish John good luck on Friday when he get's his knee drained UGH i hope it doesn't hurt too much.My Aunt Minnie told me that Davey Jones died of a massive heart attack and he was 66 years old :-( Much Love and hug's to you my very dear friend,from your naughty girl Jade xoxo

  9. Jade -- yes, it's very sad about Davy Jones. I confess that I have a few Monkees songs on my iPod.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I have one question for you regarding the video. How do you ACT out ellipses?? ;-)

    I'm sure you'll have a great time at BBW! Sounds like it'll be a blast! My next party is a week or two before that one and I hear you on the airfare. Should've booked already but kept hoping it'd get better. It hasn't! Ugh.

  11. Lea -- LOL! Hmmm. I will have to give that some thought. There is a great deal of mischief potential in this little clip, isn't there.

    1. I say Robert makes little dots on your bottom that simulate ellipses!

      Or, better yet! You could print out a page from "said thread", and you could receive the number of swats that are congruent with the number of ellipses on the page. <--omg, that would be funny!

      Delete
    2. Zelle -- whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Don't you remember how freaking many ellipses that bit--woman used? Are you trying to kill me? :-D

      Delete
    3. Uhh, excuse me! But is this the woman that took over 200 swats of a wood paddle from a Court Disciplinarian that's trying to protest too much?????? NOW THAT'S FUNNY!

      Delete
    4. Puh-leeze! You count up the number of ellipses that flea-brain--er, intellectually challenged person uses on one page, and it's WAY more than 200! :-Þ

      (And did you SEE that C.D.? He could have used a table leg and I would take it.)

  12. I'm sorry to hear that the last days have been so bad, Erica. I cross my fingers for you and John to find some happy distraction at the forthcoming spanking party!

    ReplyDelete
  13. Ellipses? Dot, dot, dot. That's all you have to say at the right moment. LOL Or, you can say something like, "She'll dot, dot, dot all over the place." Of course, you could always get some of those little round stickies and put them all over your bottom. Eh, maybe one or two. LOL

    ReplyDelete
  14. Kaelah -- spanking parties always offer happy distraction! No wonder we spend so much on them. :-)

    Bobbie Jo -- if I could find small stickies, I could put them in clusters, like she does. ... ... ... ... ... Robert could spank them off. :-D

  15. Lmao! This will be fun. Guess what? I just today received the exact same Fetlife restraining order email from Christopher about Sassy! Wtf? I haven't spoken to or about her in weeks and am pretty damn sure I never posted anything outside the FL rules when I did reply to her vicious attacks. It's just so odd since nothing has even been going on. I'm confused, and annoyed....she's...so...stupid...

    So, I wonder if that means we can't post the video preview on FL? :-p Maybe I can put one of those disclaimers at the beginning: Any resemblance to any person, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Lol

    All that nonsense aside though, I'm super excited to shoot with you! It'll be such an honor to have you among the models featured on my site, plus we've never really hung out at length before either, so yay!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I just went back through my feed. It's been TWENTY days since I've posted anything to or about Sassy. Which was only done in the context of participation in a discussion thread, the same one you were involved in where she came on and insulted everyone. Except I wasn't even participating during half that time because I was out of town working while it happened! This Christopher fellow is going to get an ear full.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Lily -- are you freaking kidding me? How many others are getting this BS, I wonder. And why so long after the fact?

    Clearly, the first letter was a form letter, if you got the exact same thing I did. I have to say, his second letter to me was much more personal and friendly. But this is ridiculous!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I don't know, it makes no sense. It was a total form letter, exact same thing you posted. I too wonder if others got it or are going to. Interesting that so many people have an apparent "ongoing problem" with the same woman though, lol. The silly thing is, outside of disliking her online posts in discussion forums, I don't even know this woman. Never met her, never private messaged her, nada.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Lily -- I HAVE met her, years ago at Shadow Lane. She used to be a member of the SL forum. She was trouble then, and she's still trouble.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I know, that's why I thought they referred to it as an ongoing problem with you. Now I'm thinking they didn't even bother to look at what actually happened, was said, etc., but instead just sent out a heavy handed knee jerk response to a complaint. Unless disagreeing with someone in a discussion forum means you have ongoing problems with them and is grounds for banning from Fetlife if you ever voice your disagreement again. In which case I'm not so sure I want to spend nearly the amount of time on Fetlife as I have been doing the past couple of years.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I would definitely craft a thorough response to Christopher. I'll be curious as to what he says to you. This is inappropriate as hell.

    I have definitely more low-key on Fet in the past couple of weeks, myself.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I plan to do just that and will definitely report back. :-)

    I seriously lose interest in any forum where I feel I will be censored, threatened, or chastised if I speak honestly. That's why I left Spankolife.

    Alas, real life is calling me away from the computer at the moment though, gotta get my spanked butt into the shower!

    Illegitimi non carborundum!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Hmmm. It sounds like ellipses woman is having a hissy fit because people have told her the truth. I think this restraining order is childish. You do restraining orders to keep stalkers, abusive boy friends and husbands away from you, not people who disagree with you. And she was the one who started the whole thing by being against pros and attacking them. I think some people at Fetlife need to get a life.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Bobbie Jo -- I just heard from a third person who got "served" today. This woman is a menace, I'm telling you.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I feel like posting a pet peeve about it. Something like "juvenile FL restraining orders that prevent people from defending their friends." But I thought better of it. It sure sounds like the instigator is going after people now who disagreed with her and complaining. It isn't right. I bet you will hear from others that get that order. May be time to band together if there are enough people. I hope Lily does write to Christopher and also the other person, too.

    1. I just got a note over at Fet about one other girl getting an "RO".. little "Jailbug" got one too!

      The best thing about that thread being left up is this.. when the woman in question.. went about damn near outing my good friend CC in that thread .. she had just crossed over the line there. I was a late comer to that thread, and was all set to post a comment to her about her spewing crap about my friend - but I opted not to stir her up even more. I'd have left her something along the lines of:
      ""Well now, didn't you just show your true colors. I bet that makes the people that attend your parties really feel like they can trust you with all their personal 'sign up' info now. Good luck filling your party from this point forward."

      Delete
    2. Zelle -- so far, it's me, Lily, Art_Amiss and Jaibug. Who else?

      I totally understand why Richard deleted that one comment where she threatened CC, but you and I both have it copied and pasted. Let's keep it tucked away, just in case.

      Delete
    3. Oh yeah.. Richard did right doing that, and it was good CC came back and said to the group, that she did NOT ask him to do that. And yes, you bet I have her post about CC saved.. and time stamped, just in case.

    4. I wrote to Christopher, and he responded.His email was respectful, I will give him that. I don't know exactly what the protocol is for issuing these RO's but it is very suspicious that so many of us are getting them in such a short period of time. Time to look at the accuser and see that no one is buying the poor victim act?

      Delete
    5. Jai -- exactly. Bit suspicious, methinks.

      Delete
  26. Well, some of my English was off there. LOL It should read, "Lily and the other person write to Christopher." And, it should also read "the instigator is complaining and going after those who disagreed with her."

    Ah, the joys of English. :-)

  30. Danny -- (laughing) Yup, I have learned about the existence of Erica Scott, the comedian. In fact, when I signed up on Twitter, I had to use EricaLScott, because she'd already taken EricaScott. I wonder if she knows of MY existence!

  32. I got a restraining order too! I emailed Christopher back as soon as I saw it and asked what the hell was going on and he replied to me. I am not going to publicly display his response as I kinda feel he is just being made to send these emails out, but he did say who did report the ROs.

    Honestly? Not too worried. She made her bed, now she has to lie in it. Enough people know what she has done and what kind of character she is, I am fine with a RO, I want absolutely nothing to do with people like her.

  33. Lea -- well, you didn't tell her to put a sock in it. Or that you'd rather eat glass than go to one of her parties. And did you ever make fun of her ellipses? I think not. You're such a good girl. :-D

  34. I think she is against anyone who disagreed with her and that is rather childish. What ever happened to "disagree without being disagreeable?"

    Yes, Christopher is going to get an earful and maybe he is being forced to send them out. FL has now jumped the shark.
