I have actually been following through on spanking Lion on punishment days. I know. It’s only been a few days, but I usually don’t follow through even that long. Maybe it’s because I’ve been using wooden paddles, but I seem to be making my point rather quickly. By that, I mean he’s yelping long before he would with rubber or leather. Maybe not rubber. Those are mean. But his buns are red, and I’ve been happy with the results. I set the timer for ten minutes, but I’ve been stopping at around five.

First of all, these aren’t “real” punishments. Technically. I mean, he has been interrupting me a lot more lately. What he really hates is when I tell him I’m not going to finish my thought. He hates that. Is that another form of punishment? Perhaps. From my point of view, if he interrupts, it means he doesn’t care what I have to say. Then why should I finish? Psychological warfare, I supposed, but isn’t interrupting also a form of psychological warfare? I know he’d much rather have me spank him to get him out of the habit. But he likes spanking. And it adds a “chore” to my list of things to do. If I don’t finish my thought, not only am I free from that “chore” but also from the chore of spanking him. Win-win. For me. Not so much for him.

Anyway, I didn’t necessarily start out to do that. I mean, on some level, I decided not to finish my thought, but it wasn’t really intended as psychological warfare. I just now thought of it that way. I guess my question is, with the caveat that Lion would also like me to find other ways to punish him, (in the past he’s said he’d like it) is withholding the rest of my thought a suitable punishment for interrupting? I’d think it would change his behavior like spanking would. However, it is a mind game. Does that make it off-limits?

Part of me thinks mind games should be off-limits. Part of me thinks not hearing the rest of my thought is the perfect punishment for interrupting. I’m torn. I’m guessing the spanking community will side with Lion. There’s nothing like a good spanking to get one’s point across. I’m not sure who would side with me. There’s torture and there’s torture. Messing with someone’s mind might go against the Geneva convention.

What to do. What to do.

Fine. You all know I’ll decide on spanking over psychological warfare.

[Lion–First, let me say that interrupting should be punished. Now, let me explain the main reason I do it. Mrs. Lion loves pronouns when she speaks. Very often, I have no idea what the actual subject of a sentence is. I get confused and a bit annoyed. Pronouns need an antecedent, right? I think so. However, I still shouldn’t interrupt and deserve to be spanked. I have no idea why, but spanking changes my behavior. Use the tool, Mrs. Lion. :)]

We did not use Edex last night. I assume that means we’ll use it tonight. It’s also punishment day. Lion reminded me like he’s supposed to. Normally, that would get him out of a spanking, but the other day, I said maybe we should go back to spankings on punishment days. The purpose of having set days was to get us (me) into the habit of punishing him. Since I’ve clearly gotten out of practice, it seems I need a refresher course. Lion can use one too.

I never liked to punish him on the same day as sex because I thought it sent mixed signals. Is he in trouble enough to be spanked, but good enough to have sex? To me, there’s a conflict. Never mind the fact that his buns will be burning when I’m trying to get him off. I don’t think Lion likes this “rule”. In fairness, he has had sex after punishment with no issue.

If he’s fine with having sex and punishment on the same night, I’m fine with it. The only question I have is which happens first? I like to spank him when he gets out of the shower. If I wait, it’s likely to be forgotten. Unfortunately, the same is true of sex. To muddy the waters even more, since we’ve stopped eating lunch, we tend to be hungry so we’ll have celery or olives to tide us over. Lion is usually in bed, trying to stay warm and then, inevitably, he falls asleep.

It’s not all that complicated of a problem. We just have to decide what to do. Obviously, things happen, so our decision can’t be steadfast anyway. Things will have to revolve around whether Lion is even horny on any given punishment day.  And if we decide spanking comes first, maybe he won’t be horny afterwards. Problem solved. Sort of.

I’m open to either. He’s the one who has to endure the beating and then be okay for sex.

I don’t know if you’re interested in the details behind this blog. If you aren’t, skip this paragraph. Our blog uses WordPress content management software to deliver our content. This is free software that we installed on a cloud server. We pay WordPress for some services that support us. They handle backups and subscribers. When you subscribe to this blog, WordPress manages your subscription and sends you notices of new posts. A couple of weeks ago I moved our site to a new server. In the process of the move, WordPress lost our subscriber list and view history. I’ve been writing numerous requests to their support team to help restore our data. No luck. WordPress used to host our blog. It was very expensive, and WordPress has a habit of shutting down adult content bloggers without notice. We moved to a server we rent . So, here we are, frustrated once again by WordPress. Their software is great. Everything else sucks.

Enough of that. We tried a shot of Edex on Tuesday night. It didn’t produce a very good erection. I hope it isn’t because the drug is losing its ability to give me a boner. Mrs. Lion tried oral sex without much luck. We plan to try again tonight or tomorrow.

Mrs. Lion has decided that she needs to be more active when it comes to spanking me. She’s threatened to spank me on every punishment day (Mon, Thurs, Sat). I’m pretty sure that she won’t. Follow-through isn’t her strong suit. There’s something to be said for keeping that promise. I’m not saying that I want at least three spankings a week. I am saying that if Mrs. Lion uses these scheduled punishments constructively, it can help us both.

We both know that Mrs. Lion has a great deal of trouble punishing me for things I do that annoy her. I get it. There’s a lot of emotional baggage tied up in that sort of discipline. We both agree that it might be useful if she could do it. What if we tried a little twist on the punishment day spankings? Instead of just strapping me down and paddling me, maybe strap me down and tell me about the things I’ve done that annoyed her. It isn’t that she will be spanking me for those things, not directly. It might help us both connect punishment with offenses that bother my lioness.

I’m not claiming that this will be easy for her. However, it will be useful for us both. What do you think, Mrs. Lion?

Our connection to blog subscribers is broken. It’s been that way for over a week. So far, tech support has been unresponsive. It’s probably the holidays. If you subscribe to mail notifications of our posts, we apologize for this issue. I hope it is resolved soon.

I have to admit that I’m confused. Mrs. Lion has been writing about wanting to spank me, play, and have sex. Yet, in real life, she has been distant and apparently uninterested in anything involving me. This afternoon (Sunday), I asked what she had on her agenda. She responded that she planned on clearing some cartons in the living room. Not even slightly promising.

Is she waiting for me to ask her to spank me? That makes no sense at all. When it comes to sex, for the last couple of months, I have had to ask her. That’s uncomfortable at best. I guess it’s time to give up. She is absolutely uninterested. Yesterday, she wrote (“A Nice, Long Weekend“) that she owes me a spanking for interrupting her. Once again, in real life, she’s been silent.

This is one of those situations that I’m not well equipped to handle. Here’s what I face. When I finish this post and go into the bedroom to watch TV, she will tell me that I was busy watching TV, so she didn’t have a chance to do so (fill in the blank). If I stay here in my office, I’ll get the same answer. There’s nothing I can do or not do that will trigger anything interactive.

If she decides to read this post before it’s too late to play, she might respond verbally. I’m not counting on it. My guess is that she’ll do the cartons, water the epiphytes, and then go back to her iPad. If she reads my post, there’s no guarantee that she will respond. Her usual comment is, “It was a good post.” The subject matter is ignored.

No matter. I love her and will spend the rest of my life with her.
