Just Another Boomer

Oh, and a chancleta!

Yes, hairbrushes do indeed change attitudes.

Carob Cookie.

Oh and third: please let spanker know I very FULLY endorse the full engagement of the thighs.

(I realize you may have other views.)

First: love the shamrock underpants. Does my Irish heart good.

Second: good grief, kiddo. That is a prodigious spanking.

Love a Sazarac.

They featured prominently in a recent long weekend in NOLA with my lovely bride.

Exactly.

You're not REALLY trying to keep it together. You're just pretending that you HAVE it together.

At least for our boy, it has really helped in things like job interviews and working with his customers.

Act.

Pretend.

Play the PART of a person looking at an apartment. You know how that person is supposed to act, what they say, what they do.

It's your secret that you are NOT actually that person. The fun is the other folks don't KNOW you are acting. Only you know. (Insert quiet giggle to self.)

May I presume to suggest a technique that has proved invaluable for our son? He is 23, a genius, but with, as we like to say, "just a TOUCH of the auts." This simple technique has gotten him through MUCH social anxiety. But I don't want to hand out unsolicited advice to a stranger. Lemme know.

No supermodel walking the red carpet at the Met Gala in a one-off haute couture gown was ever more perfectly attired than my lovely bride when she's wearing only a pair of underpants and one of my old dress shirts.

(Pro tip ladies: I'm pretty sure every man feels this about the woman he loves.)

Pretty sure younger son (now 23) knows. Both saw me pat or swat her bottom plenty of times. But he came home early from a high school party and we didn't realize he was in the house for a couple of minutes. My lovely bride was bare bottomed at that point. Nothing else sounds like that, I'm thinking.

Always wondered if DeCarlo was into TTWD.

Door opens.

"Hey guys, forgot my . . ."

Everyone looks at everyone.

Buy LEDs. A bit more money but they last literally for years, eat much less power, and are cool to the touch.

Dad here. (Granddad, in fact.)

Bzzzz growl bzzzt beep.

You've got mail!

@mija-again.bsky.social this is right up your street.

Now THAT is good planning. We'll done, young lady.

And yes, not only do the Brits offer clothing for sale, think how much fun you're going to have doing the shopping, especially in charity shops where vintage uniforms and hairbrushes may be found.

What do y'all think about products like Tantus and Dr. Tush post-spanking creams.and gels?

First time in a while, someone needs this.

Turns out the wooden spoon still has the power to leave a lasting impression.

[Most spankings here are with my hand. And even with the hairbrushes, I think the impact is spread out enough not to bruise. The spoon, however leaves these little circles.]

You know what I really love from all these old spanking cartoons? The modest underpants. So racy at the time, yet . . . I dunno . . . wholesome somehow.

Another home run.

Funny how complex tasks seem so much less stressful, even if no less complex, when one allows oneself sufficient time to complete them.

I, for one, eagerly wait to see what lessons may have been learned in the field of luggage management and control. 😉

I just love these.

So, I have good news and bad news.

The good news: sooner than you think, they'll be in and through their 20s.

The bad news: everything you learned to parent teens need revising to parent 20s and 30s and to grandparent the next wave.

The better news? The grandparent thing is SO worth the wait.

Happy to be here. Proud to serve.

During height of Covid WFH, I put on a suit one day just because I wasn't coming home in one every day as usual. I surprised MLB, who was still in PJs at 1300, working in another room.

Me in a suit, her OTK with PJs and underpants bunched around her thighs was a nice time.

In TTWD, we pay a lot of attention to what the spanked girl wears. But I am told by my lovely bride that the exact same scolding and spanking from me is noticeably more compelling and evocative when I'm wearing a suit, waistcoat and tie, and she winds up looking down at a pair of polished wingtips.

I tend not ever to use a belt. But this . . .

Golly.

Someone here recently noted that she hates doing laundry.

My lovely bride has noted that laundry is like spanking.

She hates doing laundry, but loves having DONE the laundry. And she hates being spanked, but loves having BEEN spanked.
