DomConLA: I'm (Almost) On My Way


On Monday, May 4, I fly to Los Angeles for an event I’ve eagerly awaited.
My first visit to DomCon, the U.S.’s premier professional and lifestyle Domination Convention.
Held twice a year (in L.A. and later Atlanta), DomCon brings together the world's top Pro Dommes, switches, submissives, bondage & fetish models, fetish photographers, performing artists, BDSM educators and lifestyle practitioners.
This year, again, DomCon will be held at the Hilton Los Angeles Airport (Hilton LAX) hotel.
I’ve splurged for an elegant Tower Suite.
I’ll sleep in the king-size bed in the private bedroom while slave-hubby bob gets to curl up on the couch (or the floor, if I so dictate) in the separate living area.
Next week I plan on posting frequent insider updates describing My DomCon experience.
I’ve instructed hubby bob to bring his digital camera. Perhaps (if bob can keep his thumb from covering the lens this time) I’ll be able to post some pictures along with the text.
The scheduled events start on Wednesday.
I decided to fly in two days earlier so I could do some heavy-duty shopping.
L.A. boasts some of the trendiest fetish-wear boutiques in the country.
subby-hubby bob will tag along as My beast-of-burden, lugging My bags of fetish goodies back to the hotel.
Wednesday kicks off with a day-long series of “Industry Only” seminars: intimate round-table discussions focusing on the business of professional domination, and moderated by some of the industry’s biggest names. Attendance is limited to professional Dommes, switches and submissives.
On Thursday, there are more “Industry Only” seminars, followed by The Mistresses Dinner."
Mistresses are allowed to bring their submissives to the dinner, but I’ve decided to leave old bob locked up in our no-smoking suite. I don’t want his constant whining (“I need a cigarette, Mistress, please, pretty please?”) to spoil My fun.
But I may permit him to accompany Me that night to the dress-to-impress “Meet and Greet”: the huge fetish cocktail party that serves as DomCon’s annual Official Opening. (bob is useful for fetching drinks from the bar.)
Other highlights I’m looking forward to include Friday night’s “Play Party” at L.A.’s Passive Arts Studio (at 7,000 square feet, the largest dungeon on the West Coast).
On Saturday afternoon there’s the Pro Domme Social, followed at night by the Fetish Ball/Play Party at the Passive Arts Studio dungeon.
It will be a wild extravaganza of music, dancing, fashion shows and BDSM torment.
Unfortunately, My tender-assed hubby is pretty useless at play parties.
He’s not exactly a pain slut.
But I’m packing My whips and paddles anyway.
Hopefully, I'll find an experienced sub eager to bend over and bare his bottom for punishment.
If you fit this description, and are planning to attend DomCon, look Me up. I'll be around for the entire week.
