Ok back to reminiscing! After the Castle closed and at the tail end of Lori’s Dungeon somewhere in late 1998 or 1999 I launched my own website (www.sxysadist.com) and set up my first dungeon at my ex partner’s condo in Shrub Oak NY. It was not much more than a L shaped basement with concrete walls and black plastic sheeting on the ceiling – but it was mine. 🙂

My ex husband Myke helped Nelson and I put up some walls and electrical outlets where I needed them and then I helped Nelson build the furniture. We had a simple St Andrew’s cross, an 8 foot long bondage table with a fabulous little built-in winch for stretching people just a bit, my spanking bench that I still have today and the leather sling. That was it – oh and a nice collection of floggers etc from A&G – lol! But that and some tunes and a few candles was all I needed to have so much fun!

This was also around the time Nelson began trying his hand at photography and all of the photos of me are taken by him. His photographer name was “Neil Shadow” and I think he did pretty well for a self taught amateur. 🙂

I met some wonderful people in this space. Most notably a special playmate I will refer to as LH who is still very much with me all these years later. He has stuck by me through thick and thin and has helped me with so many things over the years. I appreciate him way more than he knows. 😉
