Where are you DD & Punishment Panties.

I haven't written in about a week, so I really want to write a post, but I don't have much to say.

Of course, I say that now, but then once I get going, i'll probably write a novel. Bare with me (yes pun intended, of course) and we'll see where this goes. I'm sure this post is going to jump all over the place.

About a week ago, I wrote that we were in a bit of a lull when it comes to DD, and to be honest, we're still stuck in that rut. I'm not sure how to go about getting it back, and part of me almost doesn't want to. I've been pretty far from submissive lately, but i'm not really sure why. Nothing specific has happened that has caused me to be less submissive, or Colin to be less Dominant, it's just kind of .. happening right now.

I can't say it's like that every day, because there are days where it does feel like TTWD is going on, but i'd say 90 percent of the time lately, it just isn't there. We're not fighting, or arguing, or anything like that. DD is just not there.

He asked me to vacuum the other day, while he was watching tv, and even though it's a very little thing, I think we both felt the DD there. We had a little mini convo that went something along the lines of this:

C: It turns me on when you do stuff like this.
K: What? All i'm doing is vacuuming.
C: Yes, but you're doing it for me.

I then went on to make him dinner, and I really love doing those little things. For him. That's part of being submissive that I love. Doing little things for him, it makes me feel good to do those things, because he does SO MUCH for me.

Of course he then turned into Joey from FRIENDS. For anyone who watches that show, ya know how Joey can turn anything and everything into something dirty? Well that's what Colin does.

We were sitting eating dinner, and I said how the meatloaf was moist. What does he say?

C: It can always be more moist.

Then he does that little smirk. Then after dinner, I was full but not satisfied and was trying to explain that feeling to him.

K: I'm full, but not satisfied. My mouth needs something.
C: Oh i've got something for your mouth.

I just shook my head, and went back to my show. Secretly smiling at what a dork he is.

He also came up with a new twist for punishments. He said he's going to order a pair of panties that say "Corner Time" on the butt, for when i'm in the corner, and another pair that says something spanking related, for when I earn a spanking.

I have to admit, that'd be pretty darn effective! I can just imagine him telling me to go put on a certain pair of panties before a punishment. YIKES! It'd make the punishment 10x more effective.

But shhhh, we won't tell him that! Our little secret. :)

So, like I said, DD has been present a little bit, but for the most part.. not so much. It's no ones fault either. He's not doing anything wrong, i'm not doing anything wrong, it's just not .. there.

I'm kinda .. blah about it. Feeling a bit down, and wishing it were more present, but keep trying to remind myself that these ups and downs seem to happen. It goes through phases, and eventually it'll go back to being up. :)

Has anyone else gone through this kind of phase? Where no one is really doing anything wrong, but the DD aspect is lacking? Any idea what to do to start it back up? I do miss it, and as much as it's a nice break from it, I really do want it back.
