I was surprised last night when Lion suggested going to a Mexican restaurant. He did say he’d probably regret it because he can’t seem to make it out of there without spilling salsa on himself. True to form, he got salsa on his shirt. I figured we were both too full when we got home so I’ve delayed punishment until today. After a while, when we’d had some time to digest, I unlocked him and we had an edging session that didn’t quite make it to the edge.

Lion has been researching lube. He wants to use lube every time I jerk him off so we’ve been testing lubes. He’s loving it, of course. I’m not so sure. I think we need to use more lube. Lion says it feels slippery enough for him. He noted about a week ago that I may have to change my technique when using the lube. I’m going to try more lube tonight. I know when it’s sloppy I have a better shot at changing things up without hurting him. I can grab him with my whole hand and the lube will protect him from friction. It’s worth a try at least.

Last night we tried Uberlube. It comes in a nice bottle and you’re supposed to use a little. It got good reviews on Amazon. People definitely like it. It didn’t feel very slippery at all. But it’s hard to say. I’m not on the receiving end. I don’t know what Lion feels. I guess, technically, it doesn’t matter how it feels to me. Like spanking, it matters more what the receiver feels.

Since we’ve gotten away from our spanking experiment, (not intentionally, things like this always seem to happen) it’s only fair that we start a lube experiment. We will not rest until we’re done! Okay. We’ll definitely rest, but we’ll let you know what we find out.

When I came out of the shower last night, I brought the roll-on Icy Hot with me. I got the punishment stool from the spare bedroom. Lion sighed. He wasn’t looking forward to either of these torture devices.

I unlocked him and put Icy Hot on the bottom of his balls. I didn’t exactly know where they’d hit the stool. It turns out, they didn’t hit at all. No matter. Lion was uncomfortable enough just sitting there with the coarse fibers digging into his buns. He could feel the Icy Hot but it wasn’t the worst of it.

Usually I set a timer to keep track of how long he sits in the corner on the stool. I mute the TV so he can’t attempt to keep track of time based on how many commercials there are, etc. Last night I decided to time it by how long it took me to read his post for this morning. He told me it was a very long post and I thought that made perfect sense for a timer. However, the post seemed to go on and on. Not that it’s a bad post. It was just taking me time to read and proofread as I went.

It may not have been any more than five minutes. I really lost track of time. That’s why I normally do the timer. I’m sure it felt like an eternity to Lion. He was wincing and making pain noises. When I let him up it took about a half minute for him to extricate the little fibers from his butt so he could stand up. And then the Icy Hot kicked in more.

His theory is that the pain from the welcome mat overshadowed the Icy Hot. That’s interesting. I know he’s told me before that if I’m causing him pain in one area he won’t feel pain in a different area. But I thought the welcome mat would enhance the Icy Hot pain. And vice versa. But I don’t think his balls really made contact with the mat.

Afterwards, Lion said he thought maybe I’d reapply Icy Hot once he was off the stool. Nope. That wasn’t on my mind. His balls were still burning. That was good enough for me.

Lion and I had trouble sleeping Sunday and Monday night. By yesterday I was really tired. I decided to delay Lion’s punishment until today to give us time to get caught up on sleep. Lion said he would have preferred to get it over with. Too bad. I’m trying to be nice. It turns out he didn’t sleep well last night either. Can’t win. Barring any unforeseen complications, he’ll be sitting on the punishment stool with Icy Hot on his balls tonight.

I wasn’t sure my arm could handle playing last night but I gave it a shot anyway. I didn’t bother to unlock him from the locking cock ring. He was hard in no time. I still don’t think I like playing with him while he’s locked up but it is doable. Eventually I had to stop jerking him off and move into oral ministration position. Lion didn’t mind. It sill hurt my arm so I had to give up completely after a short time.

Lion said it felt good and he wasn’t upset that he didn’t get to the edge. I bet he wouldn’t go so far as to say that any attention is welcome, but he especially likes oral attention.

In the past, Lion has said that extending his wait might be a suitable punishment. When I mentioned it yesterday, he changed his mind. Apparently making him wait would just be part of the game. If I really want to punish him by waiting, I’d have to do it without giving him any attention at all. Just lock him in the Jail Bird and let him stew in his own juices for a while. Solitary confinement, if you will. I’m not sure I’m that mean. He’d have to do something really horrible to get that punishment. Maybe if he masturbated himself to orgasm. Still, I’d really have to think about it before I’d punish him that way.

I did way too much with my arm yesterday. I was hurting a lot by the time I made it home. Today I’m being a lot more aware of what I’m doing and I’m hoping that will help me not be in so much pain. Lion wants me to go to the doctor but I’m sure it’s just a strain and there isn’t much that can be done other than rest.

Lion forgot to remind me of punishment day yesterday. He thought he had. He remembered. He just forgot to tell me he remembered. This morning he said I’ll have to use my other arm to spank him. I think it will force me to come up with a more creative punishment. What came to mind first was Icy Hot on his balls and then a seat on the punishment stool. Burning balls being poked by coconut husks seems very painful. I bet if I keep brainstorming I can come up with even more “fun” ways to make his life hell for a little while.

Up to now I’ve only used spanking as punishment. It occurred to me yesterday that I could extend his wait for an orgasm but, as he’s pointed out in the past, he’d first have to know how long his wait was to begin with. I haven’t given him a scheduled orgasm in a long time. And I’ve only extended his wait once. That was only a one day extension so it wasn’t a big deal.

I suppose I could announce that, because he forgot punishment day, he’ll have to wait two weeks for his orgasm. I haven’t made him wait that long in a very long time. I assume he expected an orgasm sooner than two weeks so making him wait that long would seem like a punishment.

I guess I really do have more punishments in my arsenal than I thought. Now I just have to figure out which weapon to use.
