The holiday gift shopping season is full speed ahead.  Black Friday, Cyber Monday, shop shop shop!  I am actually pretty much done at this point which is a huge relief and I think the earliest I’ve ever completed my Christmas shopping thanks in large part to the wonder site, Amazon.  It also helped that I’ve been pestering my friends and relatives to start coming up with their wish list ideas since around Halloween and most of them complied (probably just to shut me up). 

But what do you get a spanking friend or partner as a nice gift that could possibly be opened in front of vanilla company?  Something you can pick up at your local department store and not the fetish shop?  Well, here are a few ideas.

 For those of you that love As-Seen-On-TV products, move over Snuggie, here comes the Forever Lazy one-piece pajamas with drop-seat!  When I first saw the commercial for these, my reaction was, “you can’t be serious,” but hey, pajamas with easy access to that naughty, spankable bottom are pretty popular.  And while I don’t forsee a lot of guys wearing their Forever Lazy pajamas to football games like they show on TV, there won’t be quite as much embarrassment if you’re caught wearing one of these around the house compared to the ones with rubber duckies or teddybears on them.

How about a festive breadboard!  Home decor stores often have these cheerful seasonal items to add a little holiday cheer to your kitchen or living room.  Of course they have the added bonus of making great paddles.  I think this one could knock a person into next week.  Oh, and you could also probably serve bread on it or something, but who really does that?

 For those who aren’t quite as naughty as breadboard recipients, theres always the classic paddle ball games.  And you know what happens when the ball flies off its tether …

Underwear.  A timeless classic.  Who didn’t get a package of socks or underwear as a kid?  Well, there won’t be any whiny disappointment with fun panties like these. 

 And for a great stocking stuffer idea, consider a nice bottle of anti-monkey butt powder.  Nobody wants a monkey butt.

We all have our hot button terms and turn off phrases.  For example, some love to hear or say the phrase “little girl” when used in the context of a scene.  For others, they get totally squicked out or ticked off at the very mention. 

I get a little fussy over key words too.  Nothing to the point that I’m going to be jarred out of the spanking mindset unless I were to hear derogatory phrases directed at me,  but a couple of silly words that for no good reason set my teeth on edge. 

Whack - A term to describe a swat.  Not really different from smack and not offensive, but it conjures images of careless, wild spanking.  Perhaps also reminding me of the term whack job is also off putting.  LOL.

Fanny – A term to describe one’s bottom.  Now this is awful of me, but it always makes me think of farting.  Farting fanny?  Not best suited for spanking play.  And I know for those from the UK, the term takes on a whole other meaning and let’s just say that while I’m absolutely into spanking, no one will be spanking that part of me.

Those are two of mine.  What are yours?  I know that spanko is a controversial term.  Surely there must be others that grate on you for logical reasons or not.  Share your terminology pet peeves.

I don’t have those photos yet (hopefully by the end of the week) from my scene with Alexis, but I did take a video grab as I started on the initial editing of the Punished Brats content from this weekend’s shoot. 

 Check it out.  My little sketch wasn’t too far off! 

See?  That paddle kind of looks like a turkey leg in real life too.

The sun is barely set but I’m practically ready for bed! It’s been a long day as it was the first time back on the Punished Brats set for me in 8 months. I wasn’t spanked, but I sure am sore as I topped in one scene and helped with filming and photographing for the rest. My spanking arm is about ready to fall off as I have certainly not been in practice lately.

I am trying to slowly work my way back to incorporating some of my usual work and hobbies into my daily living. Today’s shoot was a step and also a learning lesson in how quickly (or not) I can get back in on the action. I hope to be up for filming some scenes as a top again and a bottom in the near future.

I had planned on posting a rush photo of myself spanking the amazing Brat-Top, Alexis Steele, but unfortunately the memory card used to shoot that scene is giving me trouble and will require a work-around so the photos won’t be available for a while.

In the meantime I present you with my artistic rendition of what the photo might have looked like. 

Notes from the artist: Alexis has much smaller feet in real life and I am using a wooden paddle, not a turkey leg to spank her.

And for those of you who had hoped to see some more realistic spaking images, might I point you towards the latest Pixie’s Previews video I put together yesterday from our previous shoot with Veronica and Charlie Skye.  Enjoy!

Here is the costume I would have worn on Halloween if things had gone as planned.  It’s supposed to be a vampire costume, but the upturned collar was too much with the long hair.  So what am I?  I’ve decided I’m Evil Pixie The Candy Thief. 

Actually, I hope that we have belated Trick or Treaters tonight as I have way too much candy here including cheap fillers like Tootsie Roll brand fruity midgies that no known human actually eats.

By now, you most likely know how I feel about winter. Snow is pretty to look at and welcome on Christmas, but the cold temperatures are the pits. Well, winter has made an early appearance in the northeastern US and dumped a foot of snow on us this past weekend. As if that wasn’t bad enough, my home was one of the hundreds of thousands to be left without electricity due to snapped power lines. The weight of the snow on unfallen leaves was simply too much and there are trees and branches down everywhere. The estimated date for repaired service in our area is Thursday or Friday! And that’s if all goes well.

So at the moment I have no lights, heat, running water, means of cooking, or any of the other modern amenities. it’s like Gilligans Island moves to the North Pole. It is way too cold in my house to take off the nine layers of clothing I’m wearing let alone put on my sexy vampire costume so my dress up fun and photo time will have to wait until the power company has restored service to my igloo. Trick or Treating is cancelled this year anyway since there are no lights.

I have managed to find a McDonalds a few towns over that is open and has free wifi to allow me to post the PB updates on the sly. Bless the golden arches for hot coffee, Internet access, and egg McMuffin-y goodness.

Anyway, just wanted to post to say popsicle Pixie here is hanging in, but the fun Halloween update will be a little late due to overly enthusiastic, evil winter. (Boooo … Hissss)

Halloween season is here.  Time for pumpkins, candy, and of course, costumes.  I’m all set with several bags of candies for the little sugar thieving beggars Trick or Treaters, two jack o’lanterns, and severed body parts strewn on the porch.    I also have a new costume all ready to go for Halloween night when I’ll be here to give away all those yummy chocolates to the neighborhood kids.  This year I’ll be a vampiress.  Original?  No.  But I wanted to wear that long brunette wig I bought a couple of years ago and thought it would go well with a dark character like a vampire.  Plus, it kind of goes with the bloody body parts.  I’ll post a picture next week when I’m all dressed up.

Is a vampire particularly spankable?  Well, this costume is nice but not overtly naughty as I do need to dress appropriately for the little ones, but I as far as the overall spankiness, I’d say a vampire is relatively low.  It’s not as spankable an image as say a schoolgirl who you naturally associate with school paddlings.  Nope, you think of fangs and being drained of your blood.  And if you put a vampire over your knee, you run the risk of having your ankle bitten. 

So what are the most spankable Halloween costumes?  I already named schoolgirl which I think has to be up there.  What else?

My vanilla friend thought of me when he saw this little item at an antique shop.  I can’t imagine why? 

It appears to have been well used although it’s clearly a novelty paddle much like the “cute little deer with the bear behind” type paddles.  I love some of the listed reasons for a few swats – winning wagers and smart teenagers, noisy guests and swatting pests (the human kind).  But others … mice and ants?  Ick ick ick.  Not with my paddle you don’t. 

Oh God.  I do hope that’s just a spilled drink that made stain.

On the topic of vintage finds, I recently had the pleasure of reviewing Bob Sacamano’s lastest book, The OTK Gazette.  It’s a collection of spanking stories and true accounts of punishment from newspaper articles spanning well over 100 years.  Lots to send a true spanko’s imagination into overdrive conjuring images of yesteryear.  You definitely won’t read stories quite like these in today’s papers, I can assure you that!

 Whew!  I’ve been busy as a bee lately!  Home stuff, health stuff (making progress, but still require a bit of follow-up care and living in a cow town, that means a lot of travel time), and work stuff – just finished the first edits of the most recent Punished Brats shoot with Ten, David Pierson, and new male top, Perth.  Good stuff.  As soon as I publish this post, I’m diving into the outtake footage to find fun stuff to piece together for Pixie’s Previews. 

I put up a ton of videos on Clips4Sale last week from Punished Brats.  Lots of recent content from the members’ section too so if you aren’t a current subscriber and would like to check out some of the full video clips of your favorite brats, go to PB’s Clips4Sale site.

Last week, an interview I did with Kris Coffield of Fractured Politics went up on his blog.  I loved having the opportunity to participate in this interview as it asked many thought provoking questions – lots of analysis of human nature style questions that are right up my alley.  I hope you’ll hop over to Fractured Politics and take a read.  Fractured Politics Interview 

A new spanker on the scene must feel a bit like a new college graduate seeking employment – how do you get a spanking opportunity without experience and how do you get experience without spanking opportunities? 

I mean, if you are the bottom and someone were to come up and say, “hi!  I’ve never spanked anyone ever before.  Would you mind if I take this large paddle and use your backside as target practice emulating my favorite pro spankers?” you’d probably run out of the room in terror.  Ok, I doubt that exact scenario would ever take place, but still, a bottom must get a little nervous playing with a first time spanker especially if there is a possibility he or she could be a little overzealous or have bad aim. 

And yet, the poor spanker has to start somewhere.  Using the hand is always best as that’s the most controlled “implement” and also gives immediate physical feedback as to intensity.  Trickier implements like a belt, strap, cane, or paddle can be practiced on a pillow, but that’s a far cry from the real deal.  Pillows don’t move, have varying pain tolerances, and stand up and threaten to switch places when wrapped around the hip.

For you active spankers out there, how did you get started?  Did you watch others (online or at a party) play first?  Did you get in some pillow practice?  Did you wing it?  Did you have experience to some extent on the receiving end first to know what different spankings felt like?  How did you approach a bottom for your first try at topping? 

Can I possibly fire any more questions at you?  Why, yes I can.

For bottoms, do you happily accept play offers from first time spankers or do you stick to only seasoned players?  Do you feel a bit honored to be given their spanking virginity so to speak?  Are you a bit nervous to be the first to submit?  Do you feel free to offer feedback and correction or do you keep quiet and smile even if the untrained style is unpleasant or potentially hazardous?

For me as a bottom, I have had the pleasure of playing with a few first time spankers.  I am indeed flattered when approached, but I am not about to take a spanking with say a large strap from someone that has never so much as delivered a handspanking before.  I will certainly be nervous and offer gentle feedback as needed (say how it was for me personally if asked and alert the spanker to any safety concerns at any time if need be). 

As a top, I was just as nervous about a first time experience as the bottom must have been.  I started out small with hand only.  I was fortunate to play with someone that had a high tolerance and encouraged me to play firmly.  I then progressed to implements of varying intensity and design.  I think it helped to know first hand (first bottomed) how each implement felt having been on the receiving end for quite a long time first.  I know what I absolutely hate to receive  (wrapping, smacking too high, paddles that land unevenly or on the edge, etc) and keep it in mind when I’m on the giving side of things.

Let me know your perspectives!
