Dear friends of Ondine,

I am extremely sad to inform you that Ondine was discovered deceased the afternoon of June 1st. Ondine was a vivacious, beautiful young woman that I and others feel lucky to have befriended. Please send your prayers out to her family and friends as they grieve the loss of their loved one.

Sincerely, London

Yay, finally up.
Preface to journal:
I still consider myself new to Portland, probably because I leave every two months and because I have been so solitary. Strangely, I felt wistful this morning getting ready to fly to Florida. Then I realized that I actually consider Portland my *home* now, a very good feeling at this time. I haven't really had a home for years, borrowed furniture, living out of boxes, one eye elsewhere...no real attachments besides my fam who have long since scattered around. Now I know that besides being a country-hopper and traveler, for here (the U.S.) I am a West-sider! I have "my" little posse in PDX and "my" cafe, "my" personal slave, my own business, repeat clientele...I had to shed a lot of karmas to get here.

I have so many projects in my life that I decided to save my email to a good friend and fellow country-hopper and use it as a journal (and I am flat lining here)


May 10 6am Letter to Kierin
WTF?????????????????
I thought you were so poly! I can't believe you're engaged! God, I hate it when my friends get married. Ecuador, eh? Had a nervous breakdown there, never been back.
I just wrote about you today! New Fave Band= De Phazz
They have a song called "Mambo Craze" about all of their misadventures across Latin America, so I waxed nostalgic
(if that can include last year too) and wanted to write my own.
Here's my Kierin vignette

All night stand in the ruins of Copan
Horse ride plan next day 'Oh man!!!'

Sweet breeze on the island Roatan
pour me another if you please

Met a Che in the streets of San Jose
Kicked out of Costa Rica smuggler chica

Was so merry in the streets of Buenos Aires
punk rock dreads and pres Mendes

too much porro in the old Palermo burrough
cat fights stalked by dykes Argetina nights

all that jazz in the ciudad La Paz
grahms from mates in prison gates

hitched a ride in pick-up truck with Quecha tribes
so surprised I'm still alive
(I have to go on because my notorieties span 3 continents)

London cold grey days couldn't take another day
hauled ass fast Holland at last

Opium high with street-wise guys from Surinam
gettin slammed in squats in Amsterdam

Tore shit up at Pepsi fest in Budapest
absinthe wreck republic Czeck

Hash from Sudan through holy month of Ramadan
sinned with boy-toy from Aswan land

hit by a bus but I didn't cause no fuss
got knocked down old Cairo town

Punch taxi-driving fool in a bar in Istanbul
a little worked with drunken Turks

Drank with nuns Roman ruins of Dalmatia
Some quiet time sleepy Croatia


well, I'm still working on it.

They say things like "Space cake break at the Titicaca lake
Got some more in Ecuador
stole a car in the streets of Panama
went too far in Bogota"
And it's all done to this ~HAPPY~ Carmen Miranda Mambo !


(to be continued for later dates)

Portland had its very bad times , but I finally am making some phat flow with being a dominatrix! I had a dungeon built in a 2 bedroom house and I just love it! I'm soooooo natural, I am getting lots of repeats and awesome letters! Expanding my skills!
floggers and cats, finally mastering a single tail *snap*!!!, wax, OTK, CBT, electrotorture with my new TENS unit, face smothering...and delighted the whole time! I think they know that I care about our session and I have a lot of fun, my "dominance" is never questioned... it's real "unlike some other 'stiff bitches.'" (said sub). I have been called a beautiful, delightful sadist because I erupt into peals of laughter, which I am not even aware of until I'm told afterwards.
But still can't find a ____ buddy! What the hell is wrong around here!
What is it Kierin? I am soooooo much more bleep and bleep than I have ever been in my life. It's hard to reach my own bleep which I just precisely located!!!!!!!!!
So back to Latin America. Well, a woeful congratulations for you, but I'll miss the idea of country hop bumpin' into eachother. I think about you a lot, I just have so many emails and all that jazz. Pretty good complaints these days compared to days of yore!
love ya love ya love ya! Always blessing you
Ondine
