Let me just right to the big news! After negotiation, Master and I are the new owners of Fallen Angels BDSM Club. Yep, that's right. After listening to people lamenting it's disappearance for two years, we decided to try to do something about it. It's our sincere hope to return Fallen to what it once was - a home away from home .. a place where people can come and feel safe, whilst enjoying themselves. The build is very similar to that of the old Fallen build, with a few surprises, such as the Upper Floor - click things to find the hidden play rooms! You never know where one is going to be found! We have an amazing staff who is really standing firmly behind us, and we are looking to add to that staff. The Fallen online application is back up and running, and we hope to see some returns on that soon!
Opening night was AMAZING. We had nearly 60 people, and DJ Othius was on hand to lend his musical stylings for the big night. All of the dance poles were filled, and there was lots of conversation and welcoming familiar faces back home again.
Sunday was all about rest and relaxation, heh.
Monday, September 1st started quietly enough but towards the evening, things started to get intense in my RL. Storms started rolling in. Big ones. Lots of lightning and thunder .. and then severe thunderstorm warning happened. Less than 10 minutes later, that changed to a tornado warning. I barely had enough time to let Master know what was going on (we were on Skype) before the power started doing this weird fade in and out thing. Then it went totally out, came back on again, and there was a massive explosion near my house as a transformer blew up. Literally, there was a fireball. Of course at that point, the dogs and I were in the dark. I grabbed my phone and we headed for the bathroom. As we were going, I could hear the wind slamming against my house ... the windows were rattling violently, the door was shaking in it's frame, and the air conditioner was really struggling to stay put in the window. I heard a really loud bang against the house (that was my trash bin trying to fly away) and then the house started groaning ... By this time, the dogs and I were in the bathtub with the futon mattress over our heads, and I was frantically trying to call my children. My youngest daughter managed to get a call back to me, the tornado had touched down right by her work, but they were all safe in the walk-in. All in all, the majority of my city lost power, there were tons of downed trees (I'm talking, yanked up by the roots!) and debris everywhere. My power went down about 9:30pm Sept 1, and came back up around 3:30pm Sept 2nd. Kudos to the power people for working so hard to get things fixed!! As I understand it, they are still working hard, and there are still some pockets of town without power. Thank goodness it wasn't as hot as it was supposed to be, today. It would have been unbearable.
And that's a wrap up for my weekend. Here's to hoping for a quiet rest of the week, heh.
Love and Peace,
~R
