CHAPTER SIXTY
2003- Tighten Up
My cozy birthday with Donya reignited my interest in shibari and inspired me to do a little exploring- strictly for personal growth.
I mean, I was living across the hall from a fully equipped, sadly underutilized playroom. And that playroom did have a treasure trove of shiny new rope kits, suspension rings and swivel hooks. I got in there and grabbed the prettiest rope I could find.
But sad to say, it only took a few fumbling attempts at the most basic tanzen musubi for me to admit to myself that I sucked.
So, I turned to the world wide web for guidance. All I had to do was go back to my bedroom and boot up my Gateway desktop.
I went online and asked Jeeves to show me websites that would help me learn some new shibari techniques.
Scrolling through the results, I saw a link to Midori's website, which seemed to contain diagrams for the types of knot configurations I was looking for.
Getting back into the saddle meant doing the knowledge.
I settled in for a long night of study.
