Texas Bound!

I'm getting ready to leave for Dallas for the Texas All State Spanking Party on Thursday. Because I skipped Boardwalk Badness Weekend, this will be my first big spanking party of the year. I'm excited as can be. Preparing for any party takes a lot of work, but this one has been keeping me especially busy, since it's Prom themed! This is super exciting, since I didn't actually get to attend either of my proms in high school. Like every girl, I dreamed of finding the perfect dress, doing my hair and makeup and dancing the night away. Fortunately, the spanking world is a place where all my long buried wishes and desires can come true. My date to the dance will be my awesome friend, Christy Cutie. Since Christy and I will both be there unchaperoned, this clearly means that we won't be getting up to any mischief at all! I'm sure that I'll be able to convince a couple other people to dance with me, too, right?

This brings me to a secret: I can't dance. At all. It's laughable when I try. I think people probably learn how to dance when they're pre-teens, a time when at all the school events I stood awkwardly at the back of the room, unnoticed by pretty much everyone. Even if that's not when you're supposed to learn, attempting to dance always reminds me of that time in my life since it's so obvious that I have no idea what I'm doing. I'm hoping to just cut loose and leave my insecurities about this at the door. At least at this dance, no one will be passing through with a beach ball and asking us to "leave room for Jesus." (That's not happening, right? Someone please confirm!)

About a week ago, Sarah Gregory was visiting Los Angeles. She was staying with Christy, and the three of us got together to go dress shopping. Before we started in earnest, we went to a couple of vintage stores where I snatched up a few awesome pieces which, once I finish assembling things, will make for some great costumes for upcoming videos/et cetera. We then headed to a couple of dress stores in my neighborhood which Christy and I had often eyed when driving by, looking at the cute, cupcake style prom dresses in the window. Trying on dresses was quite the process: prom dresses fit differently than regular clothes and since it wasn't prom season, they only had a few of each dress: not every size in every color. Still, we all found dresses that are totally adorable. Mine makes me feel like a princess, which isn't something that I feel like everyday! I can't wait to get spanked in it. In the next couple of days I still need to secure a couple of accessories, but I'm thrilled with my dress. You can expect to see me doing lots of twirls.

Another preparation besides packing (which is tedious, and involves sorting through literally hundreds of pairs of panties to find the ones that I want to bring and trying to come up with creative ways to store my multitude of bows) happened over the weekend: Christy and I took a couple of school uniforms to the tailor to have the skirts shortened. That's kind of an awkward and vaguely embarrassing thing to do, in case you've never done it before. "Hi! We're a couple of girls in our twenties and we have these matching school girl outfits that we'd like to have made sluttier, please." Well, we didn't use those exact words, but that was the idea. ;) Fortunately, the girl who waited on us believed our story about going to a costume party. That's technically not lying, right?

These skirts are no longer going to be this length the next time you see them.

I'm looking forward to seeing lots of long time friends at the party, and also to hopefully making lots of new ones.

If you're local to Dallas or going to be at the event, I'm still booking private sessions for the party. I'm available as a bottom, for those of you who'd like to have me over your lap, and, for the first time at a spanking party, as a switch or Top. I've been switching for a little while now and I've discovered that I really like it. I particularly like to play characters which emphasize my younger age: baby sitters, school bullies, sisters blackmailing employees et cetera. While getting spanked is still where my heart is, I'm happy that I've expanded to connect with people in this way. I've learned so much about the mental side of spanking as a spankee, and I love applying this knowledge from the other side. I find it immensely satisfying to give someone exactly what they need! Anyway, if you'd like to get together with me between the dates of 6/19 and 6/22 in Dallas, please email me at alexinspankingland@gmail.com so we can set something up!

They'll be an update on how my life is going coming up sometime soon, but I wanted to get this out there! Those of you going to TASSP, I can't wait to see you there!
