It has been a while since the diary was updated. I celebrated a birthday during that time. We always seem to become reflective around annual milestones, so it is no surprise that I pondered how different my life is now than it was a year ago. It isn't just different, it is better. Not perfect, mind you, but definitely better.
When I began this project for Doc, we had no idea how it would go or if it would end successfully or not. Let's say we were cautiously optimistic. I don't think anyone involved in planning it believed I would find a spanking partner as quickly as I did. We certainly didn't expect for someone as compatible as Colonel to enter my life the first day I registered on alt.com. But he did, and we are establishing a relationship based upon mutual attraction and friendship, not just spanking. In other words, we are in the process of becoming a couple.
My paid subscriptions on alt.com and bondage.com are up for renewal this month. I have decided not to renew either one of them. My search has been successful, I am satisfied with the result and see no reason to continue with it. As a consequence, there is no reason to continue with the diary. But there are some things I'd like to say before I wander off into the sunset with my rosy bottom.
In this last installment of my diary, I offer my suggestions to those of you who are looking for spanking partners (What I Learned) and some thoughts about how I have changed, apart from the search (What I Gained).
