Writing the beginning and ending of a Christmas Letter. My folks have put out a letter every year since 1948. Let me rephrase that. My mother has written a letter every year. The sequence has always been a creative word description of the season as the first paragraph. filler on how everyone is doing and a creative word description on best wishes for next year. Followed with a short original poem. When Mom's dementia took over, I took on the role of author for the beginning, end, and poem. Glad to do it. No problem. Mom passed last summer. Dad decided at the last minute he wanted another letter to go out this year. Sitting there at home, alone, trying to come up with a beginning, and ending, and a poem, the reality, the finality of my mother's death hit me. It was so easy to avoid before. There was so much to do. People to talk to. Places to be. Sitting there trying to write those simple things, I cried like a baby. Got them written, though. Emailed them to my sister who is the editor. She declared them to be beautiful. This one's for you, Mom.

I am in introvert. And the only thing I don't like about this thread is that there seems to be an underlying idea that there is something wrong with being introverted. Has this profession helped? With what? Being an introvert? Like it's a bad thing and I require help to not be introverted? I hope I've completely misunderstood the post. Because there is absolutely nothing wrong with being introverted. I personally love my alone time! It's the best thing in the world. But that doesn't mean I don't like people or never leave the house or am not super ridiculously busy in my life. It just means that instead of waking up and running downstairs to see my family (I'm home for xmas), I am instead writing this, and delaying the chaos because regardless of if I go down now, or in another 30 minutes, we'll have the same interaction and I am not missing anything other than small talk. Also, can you imagine the whole world being extroverts?! Nothing would ever get done because there would be too much chatting going on! Ha. (See how I've generalized extroverts ;-)) Anyhow, introverts don't need help to not be introverted. And introversion does not mean I am shy, or dislike people, or am anti-social and hide under a blanket in the corner, or that I want to live my entire life alone, or can't hold a conversation (though I do admit small talk is painful). Meaningless chatter we (I) find well... meaningless and I often tune out (sorry peeps). I love public speaking, the bigger the crowd the better. Small groups I prefer to hear what other people have to say rather than hear myself talking. Intimate gatherings I enjoy comparing points of view. Introverts are independent and don't require people around us in order to function. That's it.

Oh dear lol I have a feeling a lot more than your post will get deleted from this site...

No recommendations doesn't necessarily mean the lady isn't a reputable companion. One lady I saw asked me specifically not to write any recommendations, she had personal reasons for not wanting them. So my first four encounters (going by memory here) with her I couldn't write a recommendation. My fifth and sixth encounter, I wrote recommendations for her...with her permission. So a lady with no recommendation may not have them because she does not want them Another lady had no recommendations in the cities I saw her (although very well known and respected) But I'm very happy to say she has a recommendation thread started in those cities we have met in after we had our encounters. Much deserved recommendation threads I might add. As for no websites, one lady (she has a website now) when we met didn't have a website, but she has a recommendation thread pages long...all recommendations deserved btw. And I can think off the top of my head two ladies who have websites and/or recommendations and were ladies I could not/would not ever recommend My point is no recommendations and no website don't necessarily mean that lady is someone to avoid My opinion only, the best tool to gauge if a lady is someone I'd like to meet is a board presence on Lyla. And not just advertising. Take part in discussions going on (gawd there are tons of forums here) Even those in a lighter vein, be it jokes, movies, music. That for me has worked best. Because after a lady has piqued my interest on Lyla, then I might look at her website, profile, and recommendations. Again my opinion only Anyhow a rambling RG

To be as fortunate as I am. Christmas is approaching and my kids will all be home along with my still new grandson who is already here. I am fortunate to have such an amazing family, a lovely warm farm home that looks like a Christmas postcard, good friends and my health.

Everyone needs to lighten up and take it less seriously! It should be fun and not an ordeal. If you want to bake go ahead, but don't do it because you feel pressured. Same with trees, lights, cards, parties. Make it a time to enjoy each other's company. Visit friends you don't see very often. Only children under about twelve should get presents, and only a very few close friends. Please don't make it about what I want/what I got for Christmas.

First photo is a blurry picture of Lindsay Lohan & Paris Hilton, 2nd is done by a photographer from Chicago & the 3rd is from a photographer from Salt Lake City. It's a Monteal, QC number so I don't know. Seems shady to me.

I've found 99 percent of the ladies are very good at hiding their disappointment when they see me for the first time LOL The other 1 percent, no matter what, would be disappointed anyway, glass is half empty outlook on life RG :-)

I was more or less saying, chances are that LE would never go threw the bother of setting up a web site. Of course, not all ladies will have one or needs one, especially if you are already established as a business women. Obviously having a profile here certainly helps too! But for a new name that no one has seen before, but have a website, then it may provide some comfort if you are wanting to make contact. I get ya tho:)

I just want to point out that this might not be entirely accurate. I will never have a website. Or post my number anywhere. (Personal reasons) And just because a person does, it doesn't mean they are any more serious than someone who doesn't. As someone who is new, I don't think it would have mattered if I had made a website. Until you get that first recommendation, you are a risk to see regardless of wether or not you have a website. A new girl with a new website does not make her more reputable than a new girl without a website (in my opinion). Don't get me wrong though. Websites are great. I just don't think they make a person more legit. Anyone can make a website. And without those risk takers out there, a new girl has no chance in this industry. So I thank those of you that took a risk on me! I say trust your gut, and if it's someone new, be careful, but don't shun her out of the game.... speaking of games... did some one mention naked oily twister?! What a blast that would be!

A moment with me at Club Madellyn Jae is one of a kind! What I offer you is not your typical relaxation experience. I offer companionship at its finest. An experience with me is a delight for all of your senses. A beautiful blonde seductress on the outside. Charming well-educated and passionate on the inside. Treat me well and your experience will only be more fulfilling! Prebookings are always accepted and encouraged to ensure your time with me! Feel free to ask for 9 AM availability via PM!! The most erogenous zone in the human body is your brain. I intend to delight it with beautiful visions, sweet scents, soft whispers, and a gentle touch. A session with me is not about acronyms, it's about providing the experience you deserve. I can read your words and reactions to provide you a moment that fulfills your needs without you asking for anything. I take care of my beautiful 32DD, 24, 34 body and it shows. Come let me show you all of my charms. Thursday 12 - 4 * Special Holiday Availability for You! * Call 613-523-6199 or PM for info. Guests are always welcome and encouraged!

Black and orange boxer briefs!

Yes, I second the motion. Meaghan should get undressed. :icon_wink:

I've had the pleasure....she's worth the visit.

If we can't kiss i don't want to see you.It's my favorite thing! kissing and cuddling are a must! Otherwise you may as well watch porn lol because you don't need me.

Although I love tea and enjoy scrabble, I'm in for a good game of rummy and a tall latte- with some Bailey's in it :)

In addition to my last post and in response to Lester, I don't believe a complaint from a neighbour would change anything. LE still has to get in the building and knock on the door. The MA and gentleman can still just ignore the knocking at the door. The only scenario that could be different is if the neighbour makes specific complaints about criminal activity going on there and LE gets them to swear an affidavit in support of obtaining a search warrant. That being said, most of the Judges I know would not grant the warrant without very specific allegations from the neighbour. Speculation alone would be insufficient. IMO, the neighbour would have to go as far as saying they have seen money exchanged and overheard it was some form of solicitation. BUT, in any event, LE still can't just bust down the door in executing the search warrant, so we're back to the sanctity of private locations. To go further, even if one were charged (which would be a wrongful arrest IMO), the neighbour's credibility could easily be torn to shreds by defence counsel and if the search warrant is quashed, all evidence derived therefrom is inadmissible and charges will be dropped. From speaking with lawyers, law professors and judges, I have been told that the real purpose of the legislation is to focus on what is visible on the streets and go after human trafficking. A noble cause. I hate the thought of human beings forced into the industry. The legislators are not interested in what goes on in the privacy of the nation's bedrooms (or hotel rooms :icon_wink:). IMO, the collateral effect of this will push the industry more in the closet and what happens in private locations will stay private. Additional Comments: In response to Vivero's post yesterday, I'd like to point out that raids have been made at some spas in Ottawa in the past few years, even before this new legislation was on the radar. It does happen. I was fortunate enough not to be there when they occured and have to deal with the stress that would entail. But I was told by a lady I know well what happens. Essentially, LE shows up but does not try to create a panic or be too forceful. They ask politely if they can just come in and check things out because they want to make sure that the conditions are clean and safe, and make sure the girls are ok and no one is being forced to work there against their will. Once LE realized that the MA's are there on their own accord (and it really is their choice), LE left without the threat of any charges. I was told that the gentlemen who were there got a pass and LE did not ask them for ID or interview them. It was all about the safety of the girls. And this goes to the heart of this matter. IMO, private locations are safe from raids because of the process involved to execute a search warrant. Public places are not. However, I believe spa's are a bit safer for the MA's as opposed to being independent. If LE tries to shake down all the spa's, alot of these very same ladies would go indy and this may increase the risks by being one on one with an idiot in private (I do acknowledge that indy's have their own safety practices, but still). The effect of closing down all spas is the exact opposite of what this legislation is intended to be. So I do not expect that the manner in which raids have been conducted in the past will change with this new legislation. And for those places that are doing human trafficking - they have it coming and I believe charges are well deserved, and I would commend LE for a job well done in those cases.

I agree with what you wrote, and most important your last line is so very true. I am looking forward to my next visit as soon as I can arrange it

There are numerous people in this community dealing with not so nice events and issues at the moment. I may not respond to each of you but I also stop and try to send some supportive energy. I just want to send a hug out to anyone who is feeling less than jolly and is struggling to find good in each day. Try to be strong one step at a time and lean on those who love you. It will get better and may be a stepping stone to "the best". So big HUGS to you all!

A very Happy Birthday to Miss Jessica Lee! Hope you have yourself an amazing day luv!!! :D

That is perfect. Thank you for the very helpful reply

I have only shared my picture before meeting with Two CERB Ladies. In one case a few years ago I would suggest it was part of her screening process... we had chatted on text for a few weeks and I was comfortable enough that I agreed to share my picture with her before we met. In the second case it was with a lady I chatted with on here but really never expected to meet as she did not tour and I did not get to her city very often... we chatted on and off for a few months and at some point... and I don't really recall why I shared my picture with her. In the end I was lucky enough to meet the lady and was very glad we had chatted it was a great session. I can't see myself posting pictures here on the site and don't think my sending a picture will become a common thing... lol... Strange ladies who have met me never as for a picture lololololol Just my Opinion Sent from my Passport using Tapatalk

Co-ed naked olive-oil Twister. The extra-virgin olive oil would just ruin any clothing the players would wear.

Good morning, Thank you for a wonderful visit back in Halifax, it was great to enjoy all the wonderful conversation, laughs and the fantastic weather. See you in 2015 xoxo Emily

Happy Birthday Miss Jessica Lee, hope you enjoyed your day!

One can hope. I do. Until then, everyone play safe and keep safe!

Sorry, I missed this. Happy belated birthday Miss Jessica Lee. Hope you had an awesome day.

I was just going to suggest the beautiful Raven Rain. She is not only sexy, but sweet as well.

I think you have seen my pics of me in and my santa outfit.:icon_smile: on another post. here are my Santa outfit pics.https://www.lyla.com/vbulletin/album.php?albumid=10041 here is movie star Santa outfit pic for now

Rubjunky: I agree that we should be vigilant and conduct a screening of our own by verifying recommendations, reviews and reputation. I also agree that from a practical standpoint, your personal situation (family, job, etc.) may be such that the mere fact of being arrested or being named in public is problematic. I share your concerns for privacy. That being said, the point I was making earlier is the distinction between open public spas that you can just walk-in vs. private members clubs (i.e. CMJ) or private locations (indies at their residence). The police have not and will not be entering private locations with force and without notice, even with a warrant. It would be a violation of police protocol to do so and they know it. So we're not talking about rights vs. reality here. If you're still picturing cops with battering rams, you've been watching too much Law and Order. IMO, if you go to public spas, you have always (both before the new law and even today) assumed the risk of being arrested or outed, albeit very rare and difficult for LE to do. The mere fact of being in a spa is not a crime, so as long as you're not caught with your pants down -- literally -- you should be ok. Your name will not be made public simply because you were there. If you are worried you have too much to lose (and I understand and respect that), then perhaps it is not worth the risk and you could just stick with private indies or private clubs. This is one of the reasons I have not been to public spas. I honestly think the biggest risk is undercover LE (which I understand is pretty rare). Private clubs avoid such risks, especially in light of the manner in which you compensate the ladies for their time. You will not find a hot female officer undercover that will take off her clothes, offer to shower with you and more without any discussion of $. My experience has been that private clubs operate on a no $ discussed and pay at the end approach (you leave the club's established donation + tip in the room; no words spoken). Also, the club's reputation and hiring practices ensure that you won't have undercover LE. IMO, with indies, you should make sure they are established, have recos and someone you can reasonably trust vouching for them. And now I'm rambling like RoamingGuy...

Congrats Emma!

Wow! Emma! 4000 posts, amazing - you sure do talk a lot (just kidding). I remember when I first joined CERB about 6 years ago how you caught my eye with your profile, albums and your posts. You were amazing then and you are amazing now - Congrats and thank-you for being you.

Félicitations Emma! And Happy Holidays to you ;-)

"Half of me is filled with bursting words and half of me is painfully shy. I crave solitude yet also crave people. I want to pour life and love into everything yet also nurture my self-care and go gently. I want to live within the rush of primal, intuitive decision, yet also wish to sit and contemplate. This is the messiness of life - that we all carry multitudes, so must sit in shifts. We are complicated creatures, and ultimately, the balance comes from this understanding. Be water. Flowing, flexible and soft. Subtly powerful and open. Able to accept all changes, yet still led by the pull of steady tides. It is enough." ~Victoria Erickson

Happy Birthday Jessica Lee! Posted via Mobile Device

I think you and Lady Sophia are on the right track: you could simply ask what the rate is for an hour of their time. How you spend that time will be up to you. Perhaps you'll play scrabble over a cup of tea.

Happy birthday. Hope it's the best.

Happy birthday beautiful! Have a lovely day! ;) xox

Happy Birthday Miss Jessica Lee Enjoy your special day RG

If you'd like to read something funny, go back and read the recommendations for your favorite people. Or anyone, for that matter. As you probably know, because of the changes mandated by those who know best for us, certain words are now blocked out. Some of the recommendations written before the change now make for amusing reading where you try to figure out what took place. By the way... I'm not being sarcastic or critical of the new regime. I'm just finding humor in a silly situation.

I have an adult son who has Asperger's Syndrome which makes him very much of the "introverted loner" type. I found what this article said very much "on the money". As a sidebar, the first thing my son bought when he moved out on his own was a dog. I worried about his ability to relate to the animal and care for it but in hindsight, it is probably the best thing he ever did, for at the dog park he fits right in. He doesn't seem any more socially awkward than the others there. The dog has given a very introverted young man a connection to the rest of society. So I certainly concur with introverts and pets comments previously made.
