WE GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT
by 007

The annual tradition of celebrating Halloween at TES was carried out with flying colors last Saturday, October 27th. Although attendence was down slightly from last year, the fifty party guests who filled the Nutcracker Suite had no cause to complain. Most of the credit for this year's success belongs to hostess Elizabeth Sheehan. Given the task of hosting only four days prior to the event, Elizabeth did a tremendous job of providing excellent refreshments and getting the maximum use out of the allotted budget.

"Last year when we had 70 people here, there wasn't any room for anyone to play.", Sheehan said. "At least this time we have scenes going on.". There certainly were. One scene in particular, Lolita topping Neptune, held most of the attendees completely enthralled for tyhe early part of the evening. Thanks to all those who volunteered and congratulations to Elizabeth for a job well done.

 

TES USHERS IN HALLOWEEN WITH BLOODLETTING
by Lolita

On Tuesday, Oct 30, TES hosted Chrysoula for a program on Cutting. Chrysoula was introduced to cutting in the early 90's and has gotten two cuttings herself - one by Becky of Baltimore and the other by the late Al D of Seattle. Chrysoula says that this is not a Dom/sub scene or a test of wills for her. She says it is more artistic and spiritual. She can only do this with someone she likes.

Lady D was the person receiving the cutting. For her, this was a scene that was about spirituality and an endorphin high. She was cut previously and loves the sensation. She is very into wolves and, at another TES meeting, had a wolf's head cutting on her back. We could see how it had keloided to become a permanent scar. Not every cutting is permanent. It depends on how one heals and how deep it is cut. It also depends on how the cutting is cared for - Lady D picked at the scabs in order to get it to scar more. Chrysoula warned us that even with a shallow cutting, some people keloid very easily so make sure that any design that is cut is should be one that you love.

Lady D is very into wolves and the new design was wolf pawprints on a path. It would go on the right side of her back. Chrysoula explained the tools and techniques she was using and then cleaned the area and used a #10 scalpel to cut the design. Everyone was silent and watched. Lady D growled in a good way that showed us that she was enjoying it.

Afterwards, Chrysoula took questions and Lady D told us that it did not hurt too badly, that it was an addictive sensation.

 

THE COUPLES GROUP TRIES NEW SENSATIONS
by Lolita

Wes and Michelle hosted The Couples Group Exploratorium on Halloween, Wednesday October 31. Michele came with her paddles beat some ass. Dov showed up with his ropes and I saw at least two newbies being tied up by him. To see the innocence of a girl in a little red riding hood outfit tied up and helpless brought out the Wolf in me. I controllled myself as I had been asked to be there with my piercing kit.

I broke the ice by piercing myself. Then, Wes stepped forward. He had never tried needles before and I used four on him. He thought they were "nice." Michelle translated that for me, "That means he likes them.".
