sub-burbs

My cock is doing a little better today.  I have been trying to baby it, but there were a few times when the ring snagged on the inside of my boxer briefs as I sat down or stood up and I had to quickly adjust hoping no one was watching.  Tonight during my "soak", I was able to rotate the ring fully in both directions with only a little bit of pain and no bleeding.  Hopefully, I’ll be back in stroking shape in a couple of days.  (As always, I know the stroking will just make me crazy with frustration, but it feels so  good when I’m doing it…)

My new "dump crap in my life that isn’t working" plan got off to an okay start today with one major confrontation.  I stood up to a co-worker who is always trying to get me to do his work.  (His programming kung fu is not strong.)  He tried to rope me into a project today and I told him I would take it on, but only if he did an equal number of my projects that he could do and take me out to lunch.  He agreed, so victory for me!

My wife and I also have been getting along, but nothing has changed in our relationship yet.  Just the fact that we put all of our issues on the table and had a frank discussion has me feeling a little more upbeat, if for no other reason than the dreaded showdown I expected turned out to be a pretty constructive discussion instead.

I’m also missing Mistress Trecia like crazy today.  I’ve been getting used to her popping in all day long to keep tabs on me, but between my frantic schedule at work (trying to catch up on a week’s worth of work) and her vacation, we’ve barley spoken today.

I did get a little ping today as a few co-workers noticed my "slave" pendant and asked what it meant.  I normally tell people that it means "be true to yourself" (since that’s what it means to me), but one wanted to know where I got it because he thought that was a cool idea.  I’m torn on whether to send him the link - part of me wants to "come out" since he’s a cool guy and would probably completely get it, but the other part is afraid to expose myself at work since you can’t un-tell that kind of thing once it’s out.  I may come out to my good friend Josh in the next week or so.  We’re due to hang out and he’s always been a good sounding board, so I’d like to spill everything that’s happened since the start of the year and get some outside perspective.

So, all in all, a pretty vanilla day, but things should be warming up in the near future.
