Excited!

Those of you who've known me for a while may recall that I've always wanted to do sex toy design, and that I used to play around with it a good deal. Um, I'm living with an artist with the skills and inclination to really see about making a go of it! The other night we got on the topic, and the pieces started to fall into place -- he has access ( Read more... )

Aw, I miss everyone in the program now. It always made me feel so good when someone was interested and invested. Made up for all the idiots who refused to see why learning that stuff is important.

Exactly! This was one of those nights that explains why I've spent the past seven years doing this.

BTW, I never did get a chance to say a proper goodbye; I'm sorry about that! I should get your contact info; I'm in Chicago a few times a year.

Oh, it's okay!

The best way to reach me is via email or call my cell phone. Do you have my number?

I don't think I do, actually. Want to email me at sarah.whitman.young at gmail with it?

Rock!

Remind me to bring both chairs -- then we can both be comfy.

What do you make (or want to make)? As I'm still starting in the sex business, I'm always curious as hell about what other folks come up with.

My designs are all over the board, from modifications on shower massagers to BDSM equipment to various new vibe designs with an ergonomic approach. However, we'll probably be starting with looking closely at the simple-to-cast ergonomic vibe and toy designs, since that's what we have best access to equipment and supplies to make.

Down the line, as we get past the initial brainstorming and get into more fine-tuning, I'll probably create a Toy Design filter so I can get feedback from people (and I'll definitely include you), but for right now I'm keeping it somewhat close to the chest, so I can brainstorm in the most uninhibited way, and so we don't accidentally post something publicly and then have Doc Johnson or someone happen across it and rip us off before we can even get it made.

Point A: I'd love to find out about escorting and training and all that. So if you'd sign me up for the list, that would rock.

Point B: I can't make it Friday night, but how would Saturday night work for you? I'm thinking hanging out at your place, catching a movie (perhaps the "Shortbus" that was vetoed for the *WEIRDEST* movie in the world?), and doing some cheap take-out?

Let me know, I'll be around (on Vicodin! Woot!)

I'd totally be up for Saturday evening -- how about 7pm or so?

I've emailed the head organizer with your email address so she'll add you to the list to contact -- training will probably be right after the colleges come back in session, because we usually get a new group of students who are interested in starting up.

Enjoy your well-earned buzz!

7 O'clock totally works for hanging out tomorrow night. And, not sure if you're going to bed early tonight, since you're escorting tomorrow, but I may stop by the fire pit a little late, as I'll be in the neighborhood dropping off a friend....let me know...the weather's gorgeous.

Later gator!
