Star Wars stuff



I had a really great weekend and have lots to blog about. I was able to cross something off my bucket list and see some really neat places on Saturday. I will write a blog post about that soon. We also got some really bad family news about my FIL yesterday and am planning to blog about that too. The month of May has had it's up and downs. Hard to believe that June is starting tomorrow!! And the Canucks play their first game of the Stanley cup finals. Go Canucks Go!

We were at Granville Island Public Market (one of my favorite places to go in Vancouver) on Saturday and saw a bunch of Star Wars stuff. I thought I'd post a few pictures for everyone to see. We saw some Star Wars pez dispenser's at the Candy Store. We also saw a Star Wars lunchbox and dolls too including a cool Yoda one. It seems like you can find Star wars stuff in the most unlikely places sometimes. Anakin is always on the lookout for new stuff to buy. I love Star Wars!!

May the force be with you all!!

Studded paddle review

Anakin stayed home from work so we could have some playtime together. We had just received a new spanking toy from Eden Fantasys to review. There is nothing better than the UPS man coming to drop off a spanking new studded paddle to try out and review! :)

I was very curious to try this paddle. I don't have one that is quite like it. I do have a leather paddle which is round but it doesn't have studs on it or is as long as this one. I was surprised by how big it was!! I knew that it wouldn't take much to redden my bottom and give me an adjusted attitude.

About the toy: The manufacturer is "Spartacus". It is black and made of leather. It is 16 1/2" long and weighs about 0.5 lb. It's a very solid paddle with two layers of leather. It has two sides to it. One is smooth and the other is studded.

It's a great toy for teasing or even those who want a hard corporal punishment scene. I can imagine this paddle going well with a schoolgirl punishment scene. It's a sturdy toy and won't fall apart easily. It is nice and wide and spanks a bottom well. It is a bit of a loud toy but not as loud as the wooden paddle. That one seems to echo around our house.

The only drawback to leather toys tends to be that sometimes they become too bendable through time. My other leather one is well worn and not as firm anymore as a toy.

Toy Review: This was a very fun toy for us to try! He mentioned to me that it was very sturdy and that he was sure that it would only take a few strokes with this paddle to make me squirm. And he was right!! Ouchies! This toy was firm and solid and yet fun at the same time. It's a multi-use toy. I love the sting of a hard paddling and this one gave that to me right away!! The one side is smooth leather and the other has a bit of a more bite to it because of the studs on it. I noticed a difference when he used the different sides on my ass.

The leather side reminded me of a firm belt and the studs made more of an impact on my bottom. I could really feel the studs penetrating through the ass cheeks to the muscles leaving a bit of a deep burn. Anakin said it only took about 20 strokes to redden my whole ass. He was very pleased with the results of it and noticed how wet I was afterwords.

I wore my spanking panties (which say "spank me! It's the only way that I'll learn") for the paddling. I love the spanking panties. Anakin pulled them down at one point to give my bare bottom more paddling.

The studded paddle is easy to clean and a very good quality toy. The studs feel very sturdy in the leather so I can't seem them falling out too easily.

Toy Rating: I'm giving this toy a 5 out of 5. Both Anakin and I were very pleased with it and plan to use it a lot more in our play. We were happy to add this to our toy collection. I would recommend this paddle to everyone whether they are a beginner to bdsm or a more experienced player.

Anakin's thoughts on the toy: "I loved the feel and the weight of it. The wrist strap was a great touch, as this paddle carries a bit more weight with the metal studs than your average leather paddle. I really, really liked how it felt in my hands and in use. It felt well balanced. The slight extra weight gave it a more solid, satisfying feel."

"The studs themselves, brushed metal, were very cool. As an unexpected bonus, it was significantly quieter than a wooden paddle but just as effective if not more so. I liked that the one side of the paddle was just straight leather; I was able to switch sides by turning it over, sort of giving me two paddles in one. Overall, a toy I'll be sure to reach for again and again."

Thank you so much, EdenFantasys for allowing me to try out this toy in exchange for an honest and fair review. I've really enjoyed being a part of the Eden Fantasys sex community.

Thank you EdenFantasies! Please be sure to check out their great selection of sex toys and sexy stuff! They have a very nice selection of bondage and fetish stuff too! They have a great selection of different paddles. Be sure to check it out! They are a really great adult toy store with many more toys that I'd like to test out. It seems like my wish list is getting bigger every day. :D

I know that this toy will be used a lot. Anakin put it into our toy box and commented that he can see us making lots of use of it. I love this toy!

May the force be with you all!!

Happy HNT - Pretty purple panties

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! I wanted to put up a picture of me wearing some pretty purple panties. They are so sexy!! I love it when panties have lace in them and also are sheer so you can see through them too. These panties are one of my favorites. I think they show off my ass very well. :)

Please leave us a comment and let us know what you think. Check out Osbasso's blog if you are interested in participating in the HNT series.

Canucks head to the Stanley Cup finals!

Last night was a huge night if you are a Vancouver Canucks fan. I've been a big fan since I saw them play back in the 80's. I remember how close they got in 1994 and driving around downtown waving flags and yelling when they had that chance the last time and won the game on May 24, 1994. We all got into my ex husband's car and drove downtown to get into Canucks fever around the city. We were all so excited and had big hopes they would win the cup that year.

It was a very sad day when they lost last time in the finals in game 7. It caused a big riot in Vancouver when fans went crazy after they lost. I was pregnant with my first child at the time and lost the baby the same day they lost that game. I can remember coming out of the ultrasound place and crying and some guy thought it was because the Canucks had lost the game.

Last night they won and are heading to the Stanley Cup finals again for another chance. One of the things on my bucket list is that I would love to see them win the cup at least one time in my lifetime. I'm sure a lot of other fans are hoping for the same thing. This could be the year for the Canucks!! Go Canucks Go!

Canucks fever is all over Vancouver right now. So glad to see so much support for my favorite hockey team. I did get a few nasty tweets from fans who do not like the Canucks. Wonder what they think now that the Canucks have won and are the way to the Stanley cup!! I really hope they can bring home the cup!

May the force be with you all!!

Weekend spanking

It's been a while since I shared a spanking picture here at Journey to the Darkside! This was taken last weekend during an overnight with Anakin. We had a romantic candle light dinner and then some spanking time! He decided that my ass needed a paddling. The "Anakin's paddle" was brought out and I was told to bend my ass over for a paddling from Master. He took this picture and we wanted to share it with all our readers. Enjoy!

May the force be with you all!!

2 years ago today..

Today is the 2 year anniversary of my Dad's death. So hard to believe that it's been 2 years since that horrible day which changed a lot of lives. It's a real downer day for me. Hard to think of anything but my Dad and what happened 2 years ago. I didn't cope very well with the anniversary of his death last year:

" Sunday was the anniversary of his death. Master told me I could spend the day doing what I wanted. I didn't have to worry about any rules. I was going throw myself into a project but decided to spend it in bed alone. I napped and watched tv and didn't get out of my pj's. I put myself into a sleep coma and didn't want to come out of it. Ativan is a wonderful little pill. It can erase the anxiety and make it bearable for a while. I enjoyed being able to numb my emotions for a weekend. I was in a very dark place and wanted to shut out of the world."

That was from a blog post that I wrote from last year and the 1st anniversary of his death. I was in a very dark place. Today feels a bit dark but trying to get through the day by throwing myself into some chores and errands. At least it makes me feel productive and gets my mind off things.

I miss my Dad a lot. We had a complicated relationship but finally made peace at the end of his life. I feel like he got taken away from me just as we were starting to get close. I wish it wouldn't have taken us so long to work out our differences. I still want to phone him up sometimes and can't. Those are the hardest times for me. Today will always remind me of my Dad and brings up a lot of bad memories of what happened 2 years ago. Losing a parent changes you. I wonder sometimes if it will ever get easier.

It's been a sad time in my family lately. My mom and I (as well as my kids and Anakin) had a big falling out with my mom. We've had to draw some lines and it's caused a lot of drama lately. We went to the Cloverdale Rodeo on Friday and had a great time but came home to drama which was not fun. I feel like I have no parents anymore. My Dad has passed away and my mom has chosen to cut me out of her life because I stood up to her. Very sad situation. It's been a very challenging time for me and doing a lot of soul searching. My journey will continue...

May the force be with you all!!

Happy HNT - Naughty schoolgirl needs a spanking

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! This sexy picture was taken last weekend during some playtime with Anakin. I'm dressed up in my naughty schoolgirl outfit that I bought from Eden Fantasys. I'm a naughty schoolgirl who needs a spanking!

Please click to enlarge the picture and get a better look at it. Please leave us a comment and let us know what you think.

IMAX date night and fun on the darkside

So how was your weekend? Mine was pretty good. :D I had some time with my kids as well as with Anakin. We were able to arrange a date night on Saturday to go to an IMAX movie. We love our overnights.

We also love going to the IMAX. Such a great movie experience. We saw the Fast Five on the IMAX. Wow! A really great movie and great to see on the big screen. Fast cars and a very scenic movie too with it being filmed in Rio. I recommend seeing it. The men are pretty sexy too! Vin Diesel and The Rock are both in it and have a pretty big fight in the movie. I love all the muscles. :D

We came back to drinks and brought out the toys. I got dressed into my sexy schoolgirl outfit. He took a few pictures and will try to put one up this week sometime...maybe for HNT. :P

The play was very intense and lasted a few hours. There was plenty of teasing (with my new bullet vibrator which got me excited but was not powerful enough to make me cum) and spanking too. He used a wired coat hanger on my ass! Ouchies. My ass doesn't usually bruise as much but it sure did after that. I've got marks on my ass to remind me of who owns it. Thank you Master!

We had some really great sex. I had a small butt plug up my ass and his cock in my pussy. I love when I get double penetration. It all lead up to a powerful g-spot orgasm and a big wet spot all over the bed. Yum! I fell asleep very quickly afterwords. A perfect night on the darkside.

I'm really looking forward to the long weekend coming up! We bought passes for the Cloverdale Rodeo and plan to take the kids. Anakin is home for 4 days and we hope to spend lots of time together. I can't wait to visit the darkside with him again.

May the force be with you all!!

TGIF! Let the weekend begin..

TGIF! Let the weekend begin! Happy Friday the 13th! It's been a really long week and it's finally Friday! It's been a really busy week for me with lots of ups and downs. I won 3 contests this last week! I won a sport chek contest and a prize pack (with free passes to places around Vancouver) from a local radio station. I love contesting! It's one of my favorite hobbies and I've won some really neat stuff through the years.

I also won first prize from Eden Fantasys! I won the Siri & Intima Gift Set. Very cool! I can't wait until it arrives.

I also received a few goodies this week for a mother's day gift that I bought for myself. I used some of my Eden Points to get a Kama Sutra love kit as well as a romantic candle. A free bullet vibrator came with it too which will be neat to try! I love all the new toys that I've been getting lately. :D

There hasn't been much time for sex or play this week. Something happened the other day which killed my sex drive for a few days. I had a really big fight with my mom. It really upset me. Her life is completely out of control and it's dragging me down with her. I needed to make some boundaries with my mom. She didn't respond very well. We are not speaking now and not too sure what will happen with that whole situation. I may be submissive to Anakin but not my family.

Sometimes my mom (and siblings) don't like it when I stand up for myself but I have learned to be strong. I put up with a lot less crap than I used to from my family. It's been a long journey for me to get to this point where I can finally stand up to my mom. I love her but need to draw the line. It hurts and I worry about her but can't go down in flames with her.

I can't wait until Anakin is home and the weekend can begin and we can spend some time together. I miss him a lot. I hope everyone has a good weekend!!

May the force be with you all!!

A nice mother's day

It was a really nice mother's day weekend for me. I got really spoiled (gifts from the kids including Starbucks coffee and a homemade card from my son and chocolate and a nice candle) and enjoyed some time with Anakin and our kids as well as my mom. I really wanted to see my mom for mother's day this year.

She is planning to move away in the Fall and this may the last one we spend together. I really wish we got along better. She's made some bad choices which have gotten her to where she is today. At least the drama was kept to a minimum yesterday so we could enjoy a mother's day coffee at Tim Hortons together. She's my mom and I love her. I just have a very hard time understanding her.

I found out that I won two different contests last week. A Sport Chek one and also a prize pack from a local radio station. Very exciting! One of my favorite hobbies is contesting. You never know what you will win but you don't know until you enter!

Anakin arranged for us to have an overnight on Saturday night. A chance to have a romantic dinner and some play time. It was wonderful to spend time alone with him and be able to have a few great orgasms with him and play. I have a hickie on my tit and marks all over my ass to remind me of my place and make me feel very submissive. We had some rough anal sex. Saturday night was amazing! :D

I woke up to breakfast in bed as soon as our son came home. The teen even gave me a hug and present too! It's really hard to get hugs when they are in their teen years. It made me happy to spend some time with my kids for mother's day.

I cuddled up with Anakin and watched Battlefield LA which was pretty intense and a bit creepy too. A pretty good movie. Anakin even made dinner last night. I didn't have to cook or clean for a whole day yesterday! It was good to be spoiled and pampered a bit. :D So how was your mother's day?

Happy Mother's Day!

Mothers hold their children's hands for a short while, but their hearts forever. ~Author Unknown

Happy mother's day
to all the special moms out there. I'm a proud mom to my two amazing kids. They make mother's day very special for me. It's been a really amazing journey for me watching my kids growing up. I really love being a mom and it's a big part of my life.

Mother's day changed a lot for me when I had my own kids. I always knew that I wanted to be a mom. There were days that I wasn't sure it was ever going to happen. But I've got two great kids which have given me the family that I always dreamed about. I'm a really lucky girl.

I have some special mother's day plans tonight! Anakin arranged for us to have an overnight with no kids. We are planning a special dinner at home and playtime on the darkside later tonight. :D I can't wait! It's been a while since we've been able to have some good playtime together.

I've been told that I'm getting breakfast in bed tomorrow! This is usually a once a year event for me to get breakfast in bed. Yah! I really enjoy waking up to breakfast by my two favorite men. Skywalker will be back early to help cook me breakfast in bed for mother's day. The teen comes back tomorrow afternoon and then I'll spend some family time with my kids. A perfect way to spend mother's day!

May the force be with you all!!

Happy HNT - Schoolgirl tease

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! This picture was taken while dressed up in a cute schoolgirl outfit that I bought from Eden Fantasys. It comes with the schoolgirl skirt and a crisp white blouse. Unfortunately the stockings did not go with it. Master wanted me to put my "Tap out" UFC socks on with the outfit. He said that I was a real "tease" while I wiggled my ass a little and started being a bit sassy. Clearly I needed a spanking! Who can resist a sexy schoolgirl who's being a tease. :D

Please click on the picture to enlarge it and get a better look. What do you think of the picture? Do you think that I needed a spanking? :P

Happy Star Wars day!

Today is Star Wars day! May the 4th be with you! Yah! One of the best days of the year in my opinion. We are obviously BIG Star Wars fans and have been since we were both kids. It was a really big thing that we had in common and would talk about Star Wars when we were just friends. Amazing now that we have a Star Wars themed sex blog together. I would have never imagined that in a million years when I was younger.

Today is a day all about Star Wars. Feel free to leave a comment about your favorite Star wars movie. Or memory. Or even just to say hello. We wish we could get more comments on our blog post sometimes. I really love meeting other Star Wars fans and hearing their stories.

May the 4th be with you always...

Fleur De Lis Silicone Desire Vibrator Review

I haven't had the chance to try out a new vibrator since my Rabbit that I got from the Taboo show years ago. This vibrator was like an updated version of my first vibrator that I got in my college years.

The traditional vibrator was always plastic though or a cheap type of material. You can tell that times have changed! Wow! This traditional vibrator is a much better quality one than the plastic ones. I was very pleased with this vibrator and am glad to add it to my toy collection.

I got the opportunity to try out this vibrator on Saturday night after my date night with Anakin. I took a hot bath and got ready to try out my new toy. He took some pictures of the toy and also me using it. He enjoys being able to photograph me when I'm masturbating, especially with new toys. :D Click to enlarge the pictures and get a better look.

About the toy: The Fleur De Lis Silicone Desire Vibrator - Traditional Vibrator comes in two different colors at EF. You can buy it in pink or purple. Mine was purple. It requires two batteries. (AAA's) It is made of silicone. The silicone makes it feel very soft and sensual. The silicone can be a bit of a lint magnet though. I plan to keep my vibe in the packaging it came in.

It comes in a cute little case which you can reuse or keep the vibrator in for safekeeping. The manufacturer is Evolved. This is a waterproof toy and is easy to clean. It has a button at the bottom of the toy which you press and gives you 3 different speeds.

It's a flexible toy. You can bend it which is unlike other traditional vibrators. It is able to shape itself to your natural contours. It has very quiet vibrations and is not a loud toy unlike the hitachi which has a huge motor on it. So this would be a good vibrator if you are looking for a discreet one which doesn't make much sound. I have kids and didn't worry about them hearing me using it. Anakin said he could only hear a slight buzzing sound but nothing obvious.

It can be used for either clitoral stimulation or inserted into the pussy. I enjoyed using it both ways. It is about 7 1/2 inches long. It is small enough that I think it will travel well unlike other big vibes like my Hitachi. I also don't have to worry about plugging it into the wall. I like not having the plug because it means I can use this vibe anywhere I want. I could take it with me on a car ride with Anakin. Or take it on a trip or anywhere. It's also waterproof which means it could go into the bath or shower with you. I plan to test mine out sometime soon in the shower.

I can imagine some might use this as an anal toy although I personally wouldn't. I have butt plugs and anal toys which are more practical for that.

Toy Review: I cleaned the vibrator and got ready to masturbate with it. Anakin watched while I tested this vibrator out. (always be sure to clean the vibrator before and after use) I love the softness of the toy and it felt really good as I lubed it up (remember to always use water based lube with this toy) and put it onto my clit. I loved the feel of the vibe against the tender skin of my pussy. It's so soft and sensual and velvety. Amazing!

I pushed the button and felt the vibrations of the first setting. It was enough stimulation to get my clit swollen and hard and very excited. I noticed that it bent and some people may not like that about the toy but I enjoyed how it rubbed against my pussy. It seemed to bend right across my pussy and the vibrations drove my clit crazy.

I then put it onto the second setting. Very yummy! I could feel myself getting very close to cumming. Then I put it onto the third setting which had very strong vibrations which are made to help you cum. It was enough to have me begging for an orgasm and cumming hard for Anakin. I was able to cum quickly from it. It's one of the best vibrators that I've tried out. I love my Hitachi and even the rabbit but this one was really fun to try and a nice discreet strong vibe. I am posting a picture of me testing it out. I enjoyed it a lot and will be using it lots more in the future. :D

Toy Rating: I'm giving this toy a 5 out of 5 because I couldn't find much wrong with it and thought it was a really good quality vibrator that you'd want to add to your toy collection. I recommend this vibrator to anyone. This toy would be really good for someone who is a beginner and wanting to try out vibrators for the first time. I would have been really happy to get this as my first one. Or it's perfect for the woman who is looking for a small discreet vibrator that will make her cum easily without a lot of effort.

This toy would make a great gift. I'd be very happy to get this as a birthday gift or for Christmas. I think that any woman would be happy to see this in her stocking on Christmas morning! :D

Anakin's thoughts on the toy:

"I could tell from the lavish packaging that this was going to be a quality product. The vibe is made of a wonderfully soft and smooth material that almost seems to glow. Looks aside, it has 3 speeds, a simple push button control, and is cool in that it is waterproof. The 2 AA batteries were easy to put in, as they fit into a sleeve that then slides solidly into the vibe.

The size seems just right, not too big, not too small. The shape of the vibe itself is interesting too. Overall, a cool addition to our toys and something I can see getting a lot of use. I'd better buy more batteries. My slave was able to cum easily from this vibrator. I enjoyed watching her test out the toy."


Thank you so much, EdenFantasys for allowing me to try out this toy in exchange for an honest and fair review. I've really enjoyed being a part of the Eden Fantasys sex community.

Thank you EdenFantasies! Please be sure to check out their great selection of sex toys and sexy stuff! They have a very nice selection of bondage and fetish stuff too! Be sure to check it out! They are a really great adult toy store with many more toys that I'd like to test out. It seems like my wish list is getting bigger every day. :D

Voting day today!

Happy Monday! It's a very rainy Monday here in Vancouver and it's voting day for us Canadians. One of the best quotes I heard today was "Exercise your right to vote, or you lose your right to complain!" I plan to vote later today with Anakin. :D

I had a really great weekend and hope everyone else did too!

A trip down memory lane

I have been wanting to go back to old places recently. Feeling pulled to certain places which haunt my dreams. I've been having a lot of dreams recently of my old childhood home. I'm not sure why. I also had a dream about my Dad recently. It was very vivid and shook me up a bit. I miss him a lot. It's coming up to the two year anniversary since he died. A tough time of year for me. I tend to get very depressed and moody.

We spent most of the day going to garage sales yesterday. Found a few good deals. I love a good bargain. We were able to get a date night to go out but were undecided about where to go. The Canucks were playing and George St. Pierre was fighting in the UFC. A big night for sports. I wasn't really into it all though and confessed to Master. I just wanted to go for a drive and to clear my head.

I made a suggestion to him about going to visit my old childhood home, high school and stomping grounds. I spent about 20 years in that city. Sooooo many memories for me. And it's hard to go back there again. I moved away and don't visit very often but have been thinking about it a lot lately.

We headed out to the city. (I don't want to name which one because of privacy reasons) And made a few stops along the way including pizza and a 7-11 trip. This 7-11 is unlike any other one for me. I used to go to it all the time!! I would skip out of high school to go down to it and get slurpees. We headed to the park nearby to enjoy a picnic. The weather was perfect and it felt kind of magical to be driving down the same street that I must have walked down a thousand times with my walkman going. Very fond memories of that neighborhood.

Some places are different. But some people are the same. It was like I was right back in the 80's again. Felt so strange to be back there so many years later. My life has completely changed since then. I'm not even the same person anymore. We drove in and looked around. I can remember walking around that park with contractions when I was pregnant with my daughter. She's almost 16 so that was many years ago now. Wow! What happened to all the years? I suddenly felt very old when visiting the place of my youth.

We ate our pizza in the park. Then we walked around a bit more before heading back to the car. We drove by the old place. I got to see the window where my bedroom used to be as a kid. It's still so strange for me. I can still see my mom standing there at the livingroom window looking out. Or my Dad pulling up in his car. So many flashbacks for me. It's always so strange going back to look at old places from your past.

We drove to my High school. Wow! A few changes has happened but it's pretty much the same high school that I remember. It was weird walking around the whole school. I haven't done it in 21 years. Hard to believe it's been that long since I graduated!! This was on my bucket list and something that I've really wanted to do. To walk around my old high school grounds.

I get to cross this off my bucket list:

#406 -Walk around my old high school grounds

We watched the sunset as I walked around my old high school. Was neat to look in the windows and see my old cafeteria as well as the lockers where I met my first husband. Really neat. :D

We headed back and stopped again at another place that had some memories for us. Then we came home so I could try out my new vibrator. UPS had dropped off a package just before we left on our date. I have a new vibrator to review from Eden Fantasys! :D I will be reviewing it very soon for you! :D

It's been a really nice weekend so far. Hopefully I'll get to get out and enjoy the sunshine again today. It's May already and almost time to start thinking about summer.

May the force be with you all!!
