After 29 years of bondage...
I'm loving living it up.
And wondering...
when you first left,
what things did you most look forward to doing
that you couldn't do b4?
Or, for that matter, what things do u still look forward to?

I looked forward to sleeping in on Saturday and Sunday...and not going door to door begging for dimes.
Then I got my first job, out of college, and it required OT on Saturdays...at least I was paid...never made a penny going door to door.
oops - forgot to put a couple of mine in...
not in any particular order of importance...
-driving a 2-door hehe (what a rebel)
-watching roadrunner cartoon
(mom always said it was bad cuz of "reincarnation" of wiley coyote blowing himself up and coming back to life for the next episode haha)
exploring my sexuality sans guilt...
- guilt-free masturbation (i'm getting really good hehe)
- same sex experiences (then i can comment on syn's thread re gaybars)
-finally free to skydive
-and...i can go be a firefighter even tho it involves shiftwork! wahoo!

Ditto Puff: After working all week, the last thing I wanted to do on weekends was to march around blocks peddling watchtower magazines.
I'm not following you.
Why would anyone want to give up Bondage? I find if so refreshing and freeing to tie someone up. It's so hot!!!
