Novelty Paddles II

I'm not really sure why I like these. There is just something about seeing a paddle for sale in a 'vanilla' type place. Maybe it's because they are hard to find now.....they harken back to another time when paddlings were more accepted...even expected.

Plus they usually have interesting sayings on them.









I was able to pick up a few of these in a tourist trap in Central Missouri in '07. When I went back last year, they were gone. I'm glad I grabbed them when I did.




I'm not really sure what the wording on this one means...but I thought it was cute.










One of the problems with today's souvenir type paddles is that they are made for show. They typically are not thick enough for any real use. As evidenced by the crack in this particular item which I picked up in Vegas a few years ago.....








Luckily I have plenty of other paddles to do the heavy lifting :)

You don't even want to know the clicking that was involved that led me to this blog (ok, it was just typing your handle into FetLife, just out of curiosity) but holy shit ... I didn't know you can REALLY write! It's lovely to see how your spanking world opened up post horribleness. I'm sorry for the time you lost.

Anyway, pretty sure I know how that last paddle was cracked. I know there was a lot of cracking up involved, too.
You should keep writing. You're very good!

And, uh, the FetLife thing ... I swear it wasn't stalking. LOL ... I was setting up an account there. Getting back out there, I guess, from a place of happiness and healthiness. I looked up all the old handles I know. ... Ooph. I'm keenly aware now of how this looks. Probably will delete this. 😳😂
