Pet Peeve: noun 1. a particular and often continual annoyance; personal bugbear: Example: Someone who continuously orders one to “squirt”: i.e: “I want to see you squirt. Squirt. Come on baby. Squirt. Are you going to squirt? Yeah. Now do it again. Squirt, Baby. You can do it. Again. Squirt.”

I used to enjoy spring days when Mom would open the windows and the house was breezy. I also loved lying on the carpet grass on a warm summers day watching the clouds float by. … now your turn.    

This post is to get some interaction back into our blog. I’ll start in the hope that everyone will chime in… I love cool mornings with beautiful views and a cup of coffee.

I cannot believe we’re already into the second week of July. Where does the time go? It seems like time stood still when I was a kid. I’d always wish for the weekend, or wish for the next day off from school. Sometimes I’d just wish for a different day. Now it seems like the days come and go, hardly leaving a mark. This summer has been a whirlwind of changes and surprises. Some good, some bad; but that’s life and we have to adapt, or else it’s out of control. Let’s start with the good. You guys have been a constant in my world, one which I never expected,…

Last week I was told that the Streamate (SM) tech department was “working” on resolving my weeks long issue. This morning I get an email asking if I’m still having issues, which means they haven’t been “working” on it at all! I responded with – nothing has changed. A few hours later, I decided to elaborate, which actually got a response: From tech (this is not the last of it they are going to try one last thing)   I am indeed seeing crazy spikes in her RTT, ranging from a few thousand to over 10 seconds. Traceroutes aren’t the most reliable tool for this kind of investigation, but she…

I’m on week three of Steamate issues, and I have become that performer who is clearly not happy. I can’t even fake a smile without sounding pissed off. lol. I contacted the owner, via phone, and spent 20 minutes discussing the issue. He said there’s clearly a problem, but he’s not aware of the site having issues. Um. Right. He had me email the lady who suspends performers on a whim. Great. She LOVES me. I sent her an email with detailed information on what’s going on, all he tests I’ve run and what my ISP provider has done. For two weeks the tests from my ISP provider and my in house…

When I first started this venture, nine years ago, I kept to myself, gave no personal information, other than how my day was going. Over time I started getting comfortable with being a little more open to accepting you guys into my world. It wasn’t so much me, as it was you. I never imagined getting to know you outside of emails or during my weekly cam shows. There are many of you that I call “friend” and most who I really, truly care about. Usually. lol.
