That uniform is perfect.

Oh my.
I think I've discussed red underpants and their significance, impact, and effect in our world.
These? I'll just say it: those have to be the most spankable underpants I have ever seen.
Shared with my lovely bride, who got THAT glint in her eye. I see mischief looming.

"I know we all have burner accounts . . ."
One of those posts that reminds me I'm old. Because . . . we do?
Am I doing this wrong?
I had burner phones a few times when on assignments in another time and place and line of work, but . . . a burner Bluesky account? Um, OK.

And good on you for the corner chair. Certainly standing in a corner is classic. But being SEATED in the corner - hard chair, sore bottom - can be even more effective.

Mt lovely bride calls me "Mr. Contingency" -- well, among other things -- so I see your dark chuckle and raise you a repressed evil laugh.

Wishing you well for a plan that allows you to shoulder that solemn responsibility while still finding a place of some joy and satisfaction. It is NOT easy, and not getting any easier.

Golden (even brass) handcuffs are a thing. First step is a brutally honest analysis of questions like: What do I REALLY need? (Obviously including in that calculus what those depending on you need.)
It can surprise you how little you can make do with if the change matters enough. Best of luck.

I once got whacked, hard, in the side of the head by a flying fish when I was at the helm of a sailboat during an overnight race. Huge schools of them that night skimming over the Gulf in the moonlight. Amazing sight. Although a bit painful.

Maybe she's not as dumb as she makes out.
No. Wait. Never mind.
She was just one slider over from her open cat door on the patio, crying pitifully to be let inside.
Yep. She IS that dumb.

I tugged her jeans back into place and sent her with a swat back to her wheel to keep at her project. (She throws standing up, as it happens, so this was a mercy.) We chatted later and agreed that, as Ron Burgundy would say, "that escalated quickly."
The cat, for her part, has kept shtum. 11/11

(although who can say what anyone heard), but it as close as we have ever come (save the occasional, furtive, single swat or two) in 33+ years to a public spanking, and it was quite a doozy at that.

a full-on, protracted, paddling on the seat of her jeans, then on the seat of her underpants, with her variously standing (my left hand holding her let upper arm) or tucked under my arm. I do mean protracted. certainly 40 or 50 spanks. Howling, Tears.

But as I made my way to recover the implement from the jumble that is MLB's tool stand, to my astonishment she declared that unforgiveable animal abuse to strike the cat, and that swatting the cleaning lady was likely to get us sued.

But as a longtime "pottery husband," whose role has been to build and outfit the studio with various fixtures and tools, I've come to know a lot. So I happened to know that among the potter's tools are these:

But our cat is surpassingly stupid and lacks opposable thumbs.
I conducted a summary trial and found MLB guilty beyond all reasonable doubt. I also found that her denial was an aggravating circumstance. (Well it aggravated me.)
Now, I don't know how much any of you know about making pottery. 6/#

Since our younger son moved half the state away two months ago, our nest as been empty. The cleaning lady who comes once a week HAS in the past violated the sanctity of the workbench, but the items offending it now were clearly not put there by her.
