I should remember to take care of ME

I shouldn't be shopping, really, but yesterday I found myself trying on couple of dresses again. And oh my what lights they had in the fitting room. My derriere looked huge and dimpled =0 I need a full body exfoliation and moisturizing anti-age treatment! And a personal trainer to move my lazy ass!

One of the less important things I want to get done some day is Lasik or something similar to correct my vision. After that of course I need to have something done about the bags under my eyes, so little more laser *zap zap says laser*. And there are some fine wrinkles on my neck *zap zap*. I've never understood how some women cut themselves into unrecognizable barbies (think Heidi whatshername), but oh boy have I changed my mind about the less evasive treatments as the years go by. All that sunbathing when younger is now showing the effects...

Oh well. HermesSD-pot (the banker form London) is still coming this way and another interesting potential contacted me on SA.com. Happy times for this wannabe-SB =)

And we're on

I've had my profile up on SA.com for a few days now. It's a full time job browsing the profiles =) I've sent about 20 messages and marked about 30 gents as my favourite, my profile has been viewed appr 60 times and I have gotten one message, from a 30 year old making 150K. What a success. I know it will be difficult for me to find someone suitable (damn location), but I'll keep up the search.

On a happier note I went shopping with my friend today. It was a completely spur of the moment thing after our brunch and I wasn't supposed to buy anything, but I found a perfect beige safari style dress, a black sheer flowy knit tunic and a red summer dress, all on sale! Wohoo! Now my legs need some self tanner and I'm ready for spring.

How long did you have to search to find your SD?

I love shopping, but oh boy, am I impossible or what...

My motto is simply: Less is more, but only the best is good enough. With this in mind, I've been able to curb my shopping. It is so much more satisfying to buy fewer things, but things that I really want and have dreamt about.

I used to be almost a hoarder, I loved jumble sales, any sale. I had boxes after boxes of china, knick knacks, shoes, clothes with tags still on, you name it, I had it... But now for the last two years I have systematically gotten rid of most of the old stuff. I've held parties for my friends and they have taken home whatever they wanted. Some of the stuff I've sold on the local site equivalent to Ebay and then the rest got donated to charity. And good riddance, haven't missed any of it! It's an amazingly purifying experience.

I still do love shopping, but it's not compulsive anymore. I'm able to plan ahead and stick to my plan. I'm not buying anything just because it's nice to shop, but the new purchase needs to fit into my plan. Sadly this is not saving me any money, as I buy more expensive things now. How on earth did I become a Queen like this? =D

To turn this confessional into sugar talk, I'm afraid my very exact wishes would make it it impossible for a SD to spoil me with surprise gifts. I love shoes, but I know exactly what shoes I need. I love Hermès, but again, I need only certain items (and in certain colours..). I would love to build a lovely collection of jewellery, but I'm very specific what pieces I would wear. To draw you a picture; the last thing I have bought (apart from groceries, necessary cosmetics and tights etc) is a pair of Tod's flats in February. Yeap, you read it right, February.

In other words, I'm not starting from a scratch on this path of luxuries, I already have beautiful things, so would my quite refined wishlist be too much for a SD? I don't want to come across as too demanding, I just don't need anything extra to clutter my life and closets.

How have you resolved the question about gifts and your wishes with your SD/potential?

Dreams and nightmares

Ok, it's time to find a man. Had a dream last night, a verrry vivid dream about having sex with my a**hole ex-boyfriend. I admit, I haven't had sex for a looooooooooong time. But no more casual sex for me, been there etc., I won't do that anymore. I need to speed up the search for The SD. Luckily my horniness makes me especially charming and flirty ;)

The timing is probably a bit too comical to announce that I set up a new "public" e-mail address, as quite a few gentlemen have sent me friend requests on Facebook and I have ignored them, because I wish to keep FB a playground between SB-colleagues. adrianesugarbaby at gmail dot com

Suggestions for new blog posts and questions are also welcome!

Otherwise still nothing sugary to report, unfortunately...

Beauty is only skin deep

I'm still trapped at home. Went to see my regular doctor in the morning and finally got a diagnosis, proper meds AND sick leave for the rest of the week. Hopefully I'm feeling better soon, so I can take some pictures. And that got me thinking, once again...

What kind of pictures? I'd prefer very simple and stylish portrait like pics, something that represents me as truthfully as possible, meaning I'd be in a dress & heels. The two pics below show a couple of outfits a SD would actually see on a date.But would that be too boring on a profile, not tempting enough? Is showing skin the only thing that attracts men? Would that tempt the wrong kind of men? I am a lady after all.. I've never dressed obviously sexy or revealing, I like to hint and tease, so semi-nude pics could make me uncomfortable (I'm not saying being in my underwear makes me uncomfortable, oh no, that's another story..).

What do you think? Are pics of a SB in sexy lingerie a MUST?

MIA, but soon back on track

I've been down with the flu, and I mean really down. Had to go to the doctor yesterday and got some meds to ease my breathing and cure the cough. It's still going to take a couple of days to fully recover, I'm soooo tired... Between sleeping, coughing, blowing my nose, surfing the net and did I already say sleeping, I've had some clearer moments to think about my sugar situation.

I've decided to ditch the few potentials I have at the moment (including Smoothie), as I'm really not feeling the real desire to date them. And without the chemistry, it would be just like selling myself. No thank you.

Obviously I'm not very photogenic with my runny nose, so taking photos for the profiles on international sites has been postponed. And it doesn't matter, I've decided to whip myself back on track and to lose a couple of kilos during April. I don't know, maybe the general chatter about skinny young girls has gotten into me, but somehow I need to make the combination of my years, figure and style to work for my best and make myself feel like a million bucks. Not to mention it's summer soon, time for the sexy, skimpy dresses! I've also made appointments to hairdresser and teeth whitening.

When I resume my search, I'll be ready and literally glowing!

I have one guy from January's search still texting me every now and then. I have suggested lunches and other meetings, but he never responds. He texted me again yesterday, "How has your Easter been?". Me: "I've been ill for a week, feeling a bit down. A trip to Paris might cheer me up.". His answer: "Let's go then!". Oh well, I'm not crossing my fingers...

Ooops, I'm alive!

Sorry about the blog silence, been busy with work and then I got myself an iPhone and that's one addictive little toy! I've played with it for two evenings now and my eyes are bleeding...

But one mini-goal is in the making, I uploaded French lesson podcasts on it and now I can start brushing up my French! I studied it at school some decades ago (hah) and decided now it's time to learn it better, as I love Paris and travel there a couple of times year, so isn't it a bit rude not to speak their language. To my own surprise I understood quite well the first podcast! Now I need a French or Canadian SD ;)

Tomorrow I'm off to a ski resort with some business partners. I hate snow, I hate skiing, so the weekend will be filled with after ski activities. Wish me luck! If they make me ski, I'll promise to take a picture =D

4 : lack of the means of subsistence

I've always loved beautiful things, and for some strange reason, my definition of beautiful is a synonym for expensive. After my break-up couple of years ago, I discovered the joys of travelling. And even though I scour the internet for the cheapest flights and cheap, but habitable hotels, 4 trips a year just is way too much money for my income. Not to mention the shopping done on those trips.

I own my apartment and I hate it for some reason (too small, noisy neighbours, not the best location after all etc), so I desperately want to get rid of my debt accumulated by shopping/travelling to be able to buy and renovate a better place for myself.

I really do not need all the expensive things I have and crave, but it's soooo difficult to go back to "the regular stuff". So me wanting a SD might be just my greediness? Do I feel entitled to the finer things in life? That's another question altogether. I'm just so used to it.

I've never been an overachiever nor career-oriented. I've enjoyed life as it comes and never really worried about the future. Now that I've decided to go this path in life for time being, is it possible I would start to loathe myself for doing this? But then why would I hate myself for being with a man that I care about, even if it's short term? How would I explain my suddenly active social life to my friends and family? Do I really care about social standards, the norms, as long as I'm happy? Am I able not to think about the wives? Only time will tell, really.

Lot of questions, but I guess that's the way this is going to be, at least in the beginning of my sugar life.

What is your motivation for searching sugar relationship?

New beginnings and boredom at home

I fell ill last night, so now I'm facing a lonely and agonizing weekend at home. And that means only one thing, endless hours of idle surfing on the Internet. I won't post actual photos of myself, but not long ago I found this site www.looklet.com, where you are able to build amazing outfits in front of array of backrounds. So here am I, in a dress and heels with a lovely bag, my usual attire. Try it out, it's addicting! Click on the pic to enlarge it.Then I got two nice surprises this morning when I opened my e-mail. One potSD that has been MIA for two weeks, sent a note asking if I'd still be interested. He poofed after I refused to let him come to my apartment on the first date, but now he himself suggested a lunch next week. I will give him the benefit of a doubt, as he sounds very sincere and he has been in an arrangement before, so no need to explain it from the beginning.

One of the pots that answered my latest ad sent a reply to my message about what kind of an affair I'm looking for, and wants to meet me for lunch next week to talk more. Love it when he doesn't want to chit chat with endless e-mails, but wants to see if we have the chemistry needed. Plus my four figure allowance didn't scare him (didn't write any exact amount, just the ballpark of my wishes).

Just hoping some of these negotiations would actually materialize, lunches are nice, meeting marvelous gentlemen is nice, but I really need my dose of TLC. It's been too long since the last hugs & kisses...

Hi, nice to meet you

Welcome to my blog. I'm not going to pretend I'm a big philosopher, I'm just a pretty blond with a twisted sense of humour. One of the reasons for starting to write this diary is that I cannot tell my friends what I'm really up to. They know I'm looking for a BF/husband, and well, I am, sort of ;) So I need a place to gather my thoughts, ask for advice, share my experiences and just simply to say stuff "out loud".

I won't pretend anything, I will say everything just the way I think. I might come off as an arrogant and needy bitch, but so be it. I'm old enough to take responsibility of my own actions and I'm the only one to live with myself and my decisions. I know that in reality I'm gentle, loyal, respectful and kind, hopefully it shines through some of my texts =)

Please let me know what would you want to read more about, know more about me and so on. Comments are always welcome!

Age does not matter

I am 38 and it isn't a bad thing in the sugar world. Quite a few men love more mature women, as I have found out to my own surprise. The stereotype SB is usually portrayed to be an innocent girl in her twenties, but not everyone fancy that, and good for me! I market myself quite openly as a stylish and elegant lady whom can be taken to any event. I dress reasonably classic, dresses, jackets and pumps, I love jewellery and luxurious handbags. I never leave the house without my Hermès. I've worked as an executive assistant and men love hearing it, as I describe how I can woo everyone with my radiant smile, impeccable manners and the ability to handle any tricky situation with aplomb.
