Mistress Didi*’s
ClassicFetish™ Meet & Greet
Pre-Play Party Benefit! A pre-celebration for
The Mistress Didi*s
launch of BetterFetish.org
First,
many thanks to the amazing Fetishists and milieu of folks who came to
support My Charity Fundraiser! Despite overt sabotage with
the wrong information intentionally placed on the
NY Fetish Marathon website, We amazingly raised $450 for My Charity!
We raised only $50 less with fewer than half of the guests who attended My
event last year! Just goes to show that
good ALWAYS prevails over evil.
Special thanks to the beautiful
VELOUR Loungefor hosting Us! I hope to
have more fun events at VELOUR in the future! And can I just tell you
how incredibly beautiful - inside and out - the entire VELOUR staff is???
As one of My amazing Fetish Ambassadors said, "Like attracts like," and We
all vibed beautifully ~ the way My ClassicFetish™
events always do!
My
amazing
Fetish Ambassadors not only looked
fabulous, but offered their True Beauty to each and every guest!
Special thanks to HydroMadam
for being Mistress of Raffle Tickets and to Mz. Deeds for stepping in at the
last minute with Her grace!
A VERY
special thank you to Latex Ed, who made the
amazing Raffle Prizes! From latex-covered paddles to rubber
single-tails to things We don't have a name for yet, there were so many Toys and
so many varieties that EVERYONE was thrilled! Perhaps, photos to
come...
Ms. Lola Bastinado (of
HedoOnline
parties & Penthouse Advice Column fame) attended and said that it was not
only obvious that much love and support was in the room, but that the
people, venue, and vibe made Her feel very, very good!
And that's what Fetish events are
supposed to do. They are supposed to be celebrations that
honor Our Lifestyles.
In the next issue of My Newsletter will be
Photos of My ClassicFetish™
Meet & Greet Charity Fundraiser! I am awaiting permission from My
Guests to post their photos online ~ a good party designer always cares for
the well-being of Her guests.
Death
has been giving Me a hard time. First, My dear friend passed away the
day before
My ClassicFetish™ Meet & Greet.
And two days ago, I had to euthanize Lil Doggie because I would not ever want him
to suffer. He was the absolute BEST thing in My life for the past
12-1/2 years and, though My heart is heavy with grief, I am delighted that he is now in
The Summerland, playing once again
with My other Lil Doggie, Hercules.
Samson Love (or Sami) was a Certified Therapy
Dog and he helped Me train dogs for people with disabilities. Sami has
not only been a "working dog" his entire life, but he has offered more value
to society than far too many people who pass Me on the street.
To all those who dare to be stupid enough to
join the congo-line of losers who think they get away with offending Me: be
grateful to Lil Doggie for being the buffer for My tolerance for your
self-hatred projected onto Me. Remember, he's gone now.

~The God Chemical: Brain Chemistry
And Mysticism.
Fascinating article from National Public Radio and author
Barbara Bradley Hagerty from her book, Fingerprints of God: "...some
researchers are using new technologies to try to understand spiritual
experience.
They're peering into our brains and studying our bodies to look
for circumstantial evidence of a
spiritual world. The search is
in its infancy, and scientists doubt they will
ever be able to prove — or disprove — the existence of God. I spent a
year exploring the emerging science of spirituality for my book,
Fingerprints of God. One of the questions raised by my reporting:
Is an encounter with God merely a chemical reaction?"

I REALLY dislike SPAM, but
worse, I dislike when My emails go into Y/your spam folder because people
did not follow the easy instructions to
make sure
that Y/you receive My Emails.
So, here's a tip for easy viewing
of Y/your spam folder: alphabetize the FROM column. Y/you should be
able to click on the small toolbar above your emails that lists who the
emails are from, the subject, etc. If Y/you click on the FROM tab,
your emails should sort alphabetically. The same goes for navigating
your emails by clicking on the Date, Subject, and other tabs to sort them
for easy reading. This little tip will save Y/you a lot of time and
aggravation.
And be certain to CHECK YOUR
SPAM FOLDER every day!
