We hope our American readers enjoy their own family rituals as we take a break from the work-a-day world and reflect on what we have to be thankful for. Of course, at the top of Slave's list is that after I let her sleep in a little later, I can go up to the executive suite here at UCTMW World HQ and spend some quality time between the sheets with Mistress.
After that the day will be a little hectic. While we will be serving the traditional meal here this evening, the family members in town this year are definitely the C list, too heavily larded with the folks who tend to drain the energy from the room rather than bring it to life. We've been desperately looking for buffer guests to light a fire under the "party", but are coming up dry. Maybe our desperation has scared them off?
Luckily we've planned some other exercise and R & R time into our day, with dinner not scheduled until 6 pm., which our teen, back from college with lots of laundry in tow, claims is unfashionably late. So dinner will pass quickly and painlessly, the usual suspects will try to take home with them more food than they actually contributed, and with any luck, the crowd will be gone by 9 pm, leaving us a long, relaxing weekend in our semi-empty nest.
Which leads to our feature of the day here. One place you won't find us is anywhere near a shopping mall on "Black Friday". So it's nice that Our Senior Correspondent has come up with her own unique Holiday shopping guide to share with all of us.
As Senior Correspondent
here at UCTMW, I have taken it upon myself to remind you that Black Friday and
Cyber Monday are fast approaching and, in a spirit of generosity, I have put
together a list of suggestions for those of the kinky persuasion in your life.
For that special Domme with the teeny little PMS problem, I propose this special bra to offer fair warning to all the subs in the area.

For your friends heavily into bondage,
I suggest an answering machine on which you have pre-recorded a message saying,
"I'm sorry, but I'm all tied up and can't get to the phone right now,
please leave a message."
A monogrammed key ring is a very good
gift idea for the Dom or Domme who might be into cuffs and chains with key
locks. You might also include the business card for a local locksmith, just in
case.
Good dental hygiene is a must in the world of BDSM for a whole host of reasons, from nipping and biting to attractively displaying handcuffs, as in this photo. My Dom has never asked me to strike that pose, but if you want your sub to bite the cuff, so to speak, maybe a year's worth of dental care might be fitting.
For our friends into pony play, how about a cooling unit. Their suits must be really warm. Or perhaps an apprenticeship with a farrier or groom to pick up helpful hints here and there.
Tattoos have become extremely popular in the last few years. Why not design and prepay for that special tattoo for your beloved?
(You Don't have to be an Ohio St. football player to enjoy a fancy tatoo).
But, whatever you do, take some time to put careful thought into your kinky gift gifting this holiday season. And please, try to remember that the words "As Seen On TV" are not always indicative of a fine, quality gift.
No one wants to create a situation where this sign applies to your 2012 sex life:
Hugs,
Donna
