Saturday was a very busy day for us at Tampa Tanners. For me it started early in the morning when I got home at 7:30Am from working a ten hour shift. I couldn't go to sleep because I had alot I had to do that day and didn't think I would have time which I was kind of right LOL. I was running starting at 8:30. I had to shower and get everything ready to take to the Masquerade with us since we were going to be leaving straight from the Meet and greet. Adrenaline did be well that day because i didn't really seem tired i was going on excitement and I had plenty of it to keep me going.
Once I got the kids to the sitter and I went and picked up Katia then Thomas we headed home briefly to get ready. Thomas needed to shave and things so he stayed at home while Katia and i booked it to the Meet and greet almost late but we made it just in time. Todd and Suzy had made it early and we had called them to hold the greet down for us till we got there. There was another new face that had showed up as well and Todd and Suzy were talking to him when we set everything up. It ended up being a really good turn out which I am glad the last meet and greet memorial day weekend was not that great LOL. I think it had alot to do with falling on a Holiday.
People started showing up and we had a few friends join us that i have never meet before and a few that are Tampa Tanners regulars now LOL. Thomas called me right before I ordered to let me know he was ready so I left to go gt him and came back. There was Lot's of friendly conversation and things going on and it is always nice to chat with other Spankos. Todd and Suzy had also brought The custom Spankopoly board that they had made for Katia and we got to see that as well. They do a great job and I know that Katia will be very very happy with hers. For more information and to get a spankopoly board please visit American Spanking Society.
Since I was running on adrenaline and things I tend to get very giddy and silly. I had ordered a strawberry smoothie at TGIFS and when I bit into the strawberry I looked at it and saw an owls face so i had to share with everyone at the table. it was really cute and i wanted to take him home though i don't think he would have lasted long so I took a picture and will have to just keep that LOL.
The Meet and Greet ended about 4Pm and we had been telling Todd and Suzy about the Todd adult store here in Tampa. So talk towards the end of the greet leaned towards going there. Red Palmer agreed to show them where it was and they all headed over there to have a look around. I think they enjoyed it as they brought to the hotel a few goodies and Suzy got her mask for the Masquerade. They even got Katia's present there.
Once we all arrived at the hotel it was some quick chatter and Todd and Suzy showing us what they got at the Todd. Katia got her present and Suzy asked her to use it at the masquerade party. it was a straw cup in the shape of a dick. Katia looked funny sippy her Pepsi out of a dick but it was funny because she was walking around holding it as we walked around the hotel and back and forth between the two rooms.
It was time though to start and get ready. This proved though to be quite a task for Katia and i LOL. The outfits that we picked were cute, But very difficult to put on LOL we needed help from Suzy quite a few times getting zipped up, buckled and putting on our thigh highs. It was quite an interesting event just getting ready lots of laughs and Katia and i looking like fools as we had to lay on our backs to pull our Thigh highs up then need Suzy to help us figure out the hooks and things. Lots of fun Thank goodness Todd was in his room and Thomas was asleep he missed all the fun we were having as we got ready. LOL
here's a pic of our outfits after we finally got them on. I was really self conscious of mine though as I have a very large bust and the corset pushed them up and almost busting out at the top. I played with the Boa trying to hide my boobage LOL. I finally got to where i was comfortable though.
We didn't get a picture of us in the mask though which we thought we did but didn't some how LOL. Oh well walking through the hotel I felt very weird though but it was quite apparent that we were heading to a masquerade party since we all had our masks on our heads and things.
We headed over to the Phoenix Club a little early to meet with the managers of the Club and get set up with our goodies bags and things. it is a very nice place and they have it set up really nice. It was my first time in a dungeon though and i was like a kid in a candy store. I love alot more then spanking so it was amazing to me to see a real dungeon play space and they had lots of equipment. Before everyone showed up we quickly went to the Andrew cross and Todd tried out there new studded strap from the Todd. It was more for photo opps but he did give us each ten good ones. Here's a few pics from that.
People started showing up and the party started at first it was alot of shaking hands and meeting everyone we had a few show up that we hadn't expected or known about yet but it was nice to meet them. For some though the whole dungeon atmosphere was very overwhelming. But alot of our members adapted really well and got to try out some new and exciting stuff.
We had some learning to do but we learned quickly and it was nice to mix the different dynamics of things for a night. It was not anything at all what we were used to though and it was a bit of a culture shock sorta to be in the moment and we were not sure really what we were supposed to do or how to get anything started so we just went with the flow and explored our surroundings a bit a few like Thomas though didn't play much because it was so different. One of members was totally freaked out but we since have talked to her and she has decided that the BDSM and dungeon scene is not her thing. We were thankful she at least gave it a whirl and came out to join us. here's a picture of Thomas napping not sure how he did that as the music was loud and there was alot of playing going on around him. Thomas has never been open to like dark and loud so he would never have a good time at any club setting even a vanilla one.
Red Palmer is a Tampa Tanners regular he has a blast and is really good at spanking so he always gets alot of play. he jumped right in as well and he didn't waste anytime taking me across his knee when he got there. Unfortunately for my costume though as soon as I went over his lap my Boobies decided to pop out completely I was holding my boa close to my chest to cove them for quite awhile. A long time friend of ours was in town and decided to come and join us. Thankfully she had some clothes in her car and she lent me a shirt to put on. LOL
There was lots of furniture and spanking benches. Red Palmer and I decided to try out one of the benches. I was never on one of these before so it was new and fun to try out. Red decided to grab my Tampa Tanners paddle and spank me with that while I was on the bench. here's a good picture of that.
There was a couple that was part of the Phoenix Club that we had meet before and they wanted to come to see us again and we were happy to see them. They showed us a little about what they do and things and had some really nice toys that a few of our members got to try out. One was a single tail whip. Of course after seeing Suzy try it out I later got the nerve to ask them if I could try it out and so did Katia. This couple was a Master and Slave and his slave helped me out by showing me some of the toys getting some towels and setting up the bench we were going to use. we didn't know about the towels and things until this point though but they were really nice and she held my hand and talked me through things and helped him. After the whip we tried out a few things they had including some sensation play things. It was a wonderful experience. and I liked it very much. They are a really sweet couple and i was glad to have seen them again. She provided the aftercare and wrapped me in a blanket after we played and asked if I wanted water and things. That is something I wasn't quite used to and didn't understand i asked Thomas why I was wrapped in a blanket after we played and things and he told me that it was normal for the scenes that BDSM do and i can understand after the one scene we saw.
It was also mentioned to us that the BDSM group couldn't understand how we could talk to each other during scenes. Though for us we really don't scene. it is not uncommon in the spanking scene for everyone to be talking and bottoms playing patty cake or things while they are getting spanked and all that. So when we were across someones lap and talking to others they just couldn't understand. likewise we didn't understand that the play area was not a place to talk and goof around. Since different scenes were going on at different areas there was a light set that provided a line as to where you could converse and not bother the scenes going on. The Phoenix staff were really nice and came over and explained it to us though so we moved away. It isn't a big difference but there are more protocols and things that we just weren't used to in a dungeon setting then in a spanking party setting.
We didn't really know how things were going to be and we had planned for cake and presents and katias birthday spankings which we usually do in the middle or towards the end of our parties. but since alot of play had started and it interrupting a scene is not a good thing we ended up not having the cake and things because a few scenes were already underway. it was all good though We enjoyed our time and we will know next time a little bit better. It was our first time so we had alot to learn and take in at once but in all I think it worked out great and both groups interacted well.
At the party Marcelus showed up as well. We had met him when we went to a few munches and the fetish circuit. So it was nice to see some familiar faces in their crowd as well. marcelus though works with rope and as everyone knows I love bondage. though I am also very self conscious and never thought in a million years i would ever be caught taking my shirt off in public especially to let a guy tie me up. LOL. But I love rope and was very curious. So i agreed to go upstairs to a balcony that was semi private and do it but mentioned that I would not walk around without the shirt even after the rope dress. But I took a big step in doing it in the first place. I have heard alot of talk about subspace and things and I never understood it as I never went there before. But I think that I was very close to what might have been subspace when Marcelus was removing the ropes I know i felt different and was in my own little world as he was slowly removing them. he is very good at what he does and it was experience I can't wait to experience again. it was also very pretty and very comfortable i walked around the rest of the night till close to the end with the ropes on. But I had on my shirt my friend gave me LOL. here's a picture of that i am even sharing the front shot though I cropped it some and it is dark.
Though we didn't do our usual party at the Phoenix club we had a very eventful and fun night. We met some really awesome people and learned some new things and got to experience alot. katia and i will most definitely be getting a membership and hope to go back again soon to learn more. It was an awesome time and the people are just as awesome. They had a very nice lasagna dinner and soda and things. Though I later found out I grabbed the wrong color cup I didn't know that the colors meant anything so I identified myself as a Top apparently. LOL That's another difference I noticed at both the munch and at the Phoenix club the colors. Blue is bottom or submissive and Red is for Top where as in our group we have it switched. Red is for bottom and blue is for top. So I always feel like a Top when i put a blue sticker on my tag LOL.
Red Palmer had a blast. Here's a good picture of the three of us Red, Katia and i at the club towards the end of night.
People were starting to die down and we decided to head out. The thing that sucked was that Shy showed up shortly before we decided to head out. It was great to see her and her Daddy and friends though it was short and sweet this time around. Hopefully we will see her at the Tampa tanners fireworks party. Not really sure since weekends are the time she gets to spend with her daddy. But she is our young one and always will be LOL.
Here's a few more pictures from that night at the dungeon party.
After we all left a few of us headed back to the hotel although I rode with Red Palmer and we got lost on the way. LOL. I am not good with directions but after passing the hotel on the hwy about two times we finally found out where to get off to get on the right road to actually get into the hotel.
The intent was to eat some cake and give Katia her birthday spankings. I am not sure how that worked out though as soon as it started and I was laying on the bed watching i feel asleep quickly the adrenaline just didn't work when i slowed down and laid on a bed I was out cold. I think it was close to 4 in the morning when everyone cleared out and Thomas Katia and I went over to our rooms to go to sleep. LOL
here's a pic I was given that I think I am still awake in but I fell out shortly after thats for sure so I missed most of the birthday spankings. But I got a few pictures.
After we got a few hours of sleep Katia Thomas and I woke up early and headed to the breakfast at the hotel. The we went to see Todd and Suzy and of course we all played before saying our goodbyes.
Of course since i slept the night before and Missed Katia getting her birthday spanks with a new implement made by Cane-iac she quickly mentioned That I haven't felt "The Satan" yet to Todd and that I had to try it out before I left. That thing is very evil I tell you. LOL
I think there might soon be some video from that night and morning but not sure. I will share it if there is as well. I know i think some was taken but not entirely sure. Okay Todd uploaded one of the videos of the very first spankings at the phoenix Club so here it goes he did a nice job with it as well.
I ended up just giving Suzy her gift basket that we had gotten for her before she left. We never even got cake so we just split the cake in half and she took half home and i took half so we gave it to our familys as well LOL. Here's a picture of the cake and the gift basket theough LOL
Here is a picture as well of the extra mask I made and my mask though I never got any pictures of me actually wearing it. LOL
The Pink was for my costume and the purple was an extra one I made.
