Since I&#8217;m staying in more, I was looking for something new to explore and just the thing happened along one day.  I was contacted by a couple who wanted to review my blog for their podcast, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bluecatservices.org\/home\/eroticawakening\/\">Erotic Awakening<\/a>, which sounded interesting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bluecatservices.org\/home\/eroticawakening\/\" target=_blank><img src='http:\/\/www.spankingbethie.com\/blog\/spanking-pictures\/eroticawakenings.gif' alt='Erotic Awakening' \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I was especially intrigued because I like podcasts anyway so I looked over their site, checked out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bluecatservices.org\/home\/\" target=_blank>their blog<\/a>, and then listened to a couple of podcasts.  I really enjoyed all of it.  I like listening to podcasts on my Ipod because the format is really handy for me and the subject matter of Erotic Awakening is interesting and fun.  I&#8217;m slowly working my way through the episodes and looking forward to listening to this week&#8217;s when I get a chance.  I always like to hear from other kinksters so listening to them relate their experiences in a podcast is very cool.  I highly recommend them, and not just because they gave me a really nice review.<\/p>\n<p>As for my new paddle.  Oh me, oh my, the trouble I get myself in sometimes!<\/p>\n<p><img src='http:\/\/www.spankingbethie.com\/blog\/spanking-pictures\/gbspaddle.jpg' alt='GBS paddle' \/><\/p>\n<p>Dan has wanted a paddle like the one they use at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.affiliate-cash.de\/sp\/affiliate.php?progid=14970&#038;partnerid=41189&#038;umsatzid=sb&#038;customparm=nopop\" target=_blank>Girls Boarding School<\/a> site, but I couldn&#8217;t find one exactly like that one so I custom ordered a paddle from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncis.net\/woodrage\/paddles.html\" target=_blank>Woodrage Paddles<\/a>.  Luckily, they were familiar with the paddle I was looking for.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s right, I custom ordered that paddle myself.  I didn&#8217;t order one quite as large like the one they use because I&#8217;m not completely crazy.  I mean, seriously, that paddle is baaaad!<\/p>\n<p>Here are some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spankingdollars.com\/v2\/flashgalleries\/?siteid=14970&#038;galleryid=126&#038;affid=41189\" target=_blank>sample clips<\/a> just in case you haven&#8217;t seen that paddle in action.  Eeek, right?<\/p>\n<p>Dan was thrilled when he unwrapped the paddle and immediately wanted to give it a test run.  Dan decided ten spanks would be good enough for starters and I was game, so I bent right over and he bared my bottom while I calmly waited for the first stroke.  When I ordered the paddle, I figured a little less paddle would mean a little less burn but that didn&#8217;t exactly work out for my bottom after all.  It&#8217;s still a hefty piece of wood and those holes add to it&#8217;s effectiveness for extra burning power.  It turns out that despite not being huge, it&#8217;s still plenty big enough to cover a lot of bottom area.  I found that out immediately after the first swat landed.<\/p>\n<p>Owwww!  As that first swat burned across my bottom, it sank in that I might have made a mistake.  Then when the second stroke landed, I knew I was in trouble.  As the paddling continued, I squealed, I yelped, I kicked, I begged, and then I just yelled.  It didn&#8217;t do any good, Dan just keep swinging that paddle and promising to keep paddling if I dared to get up.  He did not hold back even though it was the &#8220;testing&#8221; phase.  Ten swats and I was very impressed.  My bottom was even more impressed, as well as red and somewhat tenderized.<\/p>\n<p>Since the first test, I&#8217;ve gotten a few more strokes in preparation for the first &#8220;real&#8221; paddling with our new toy that Dan has promised me.  I suspect I&#8217;m going to have one very sore bottom very soon.
