I've been called for jury duty. Again. This time it's over an hour away from home though -- it would be shorter, but there is rush hour traffic to consider.But more than that, this is going to be challenging in terms of staying diapered all the time. I have been trying for two years now to live as if I were bladder incontinent, to put it in basic terms. It has been some time since I attempted

ABUniverse is known for selling disposable diapers designed for adult babies and others who refuse to grow up, and now they offer a type of disposable diaper that has one tape per side, much like baby diapers. They call it the Super Dry Kids diaper.One of the things I have said repeatedly over the years is that an adult disposable diaper doesn't look or feel babyish if all you do is enlarge the

On the heels of a negative-ish post about ABUniverse, I'd like to mention a positive experience. I ordered a pacifier and clip from pacifiersrus.com and was very pleased. Not only did I get my order quickly (especially considering it was a custom order), it was everything I expected and more.For those who don't already know, the German company MAPI makes NUK pacifier and bottle nipples, which

I recently ordered from ABUniverse and am only semi-satisfied. I ordered their "boy theme" and "girl theme" bibs -- I think the "girl theme" one is very cute as pictured on their web site. But that's not what I got. As you can see in the picture I took, the "boy theme" bib (the green one) looks just like the one on the ABU website, but I'm not sure what the other one I received is supposed to

I'm kind of making a list of songs with lyrics about childhood that appeal to me -- celebrating childhood and the innocence and joy of it. The first one was on my LiveJournal page, and I'll probably eventually repost it here because you can only see it if you're on LJ and I friend you, but it was "You Never Know," by the Dave Matthews Band.This time I'm inducting a song from the 80s into my "

After hearing about these in the early 1990s (they probably went back to the 1960s or 1970s), I finally saw a musical diaper alarm in operation at an AB party. Seems somebody changed the birthday boy's diaper and slipped the diaper alarm in without his noticing, then next time he wet, little electronic music started to play, and he was very embarrassed, and everybody giggled.And after that, I

As you can probably guess from some of my recent terminology-based postings, I understand Kathi Stringer's desire to come up with a better terminology. The words we have to describe ourselves and our activities are woefully inadequate. We need better ones.Kathi Stringer, who I seem to agree with on many points (but disagree with on others), has proposed the term "Advanced Baby" to replace "

I've stated my disagreement with Kathi Stringer's term "True Infantilism" (though not with the concept she uses it to refer to), but I'd like to say something about the term "infantilism" itself.If you look "infantilism" up in a dictionary, you will see definitions that have to do with arrested development and extreme immaturity. Look at dictionary.com, for example. To paraphrase, the

We're back from Duckon -- I built a blinkie! It took forever to get home, though. A 10-mile stretch of I-65 was under "construction," by which I mean the road was narrowed to one lane, but I didn't see any actual work happening, so it took us about 40 minutes of stop-and-go traffic to go those 10 miles.I wet my night diapers last night (that makes 3 out of the last 4 nights), and although I

I am currently posting from Duckon, a science fiction convention near Chicago. If you don't see me online, that's why. The hotel the convention is in has free wi-fi in the lobby (which is why I can post this) and free high-speed Internet for guests. But we're not staying at the same hotel. The one we are staying at has high-speed (wired) Internet in the rooms, but it costs $13 per day.

Over on Diaperchat's chat room, which I used to go to, there was a bit of an incident today. Maybe it doesn't seem too important to some people, but it's important to me. There wasn't any conversation going on until a "little girl" and her "daddy" came on (obviously these are both adults) and started roleplaying. She talked in babytalk; it was quite adorable.Then a couple of self-appointed

Well, the doctor said there were red and white blood cells as well as epithelial cells in my urine test, and those are usually a sign of some kind of infection, so it's back on Cipro for a couple weeks, but at least that will make the weird odor go away and make my wife happier. Normally she can't smell my wet diapers unless I go without changing them for hours for some reason.Happier wife =

Some of you might know that I've been having problems with a recurring bladder/prostate infection over the past 2 years. Antibiotics clear it right up, but it keeps coming back. The first symptom is that, well, my wet diapers start smelling really bad. First time it happened I wasn't in diapers but I noticed that odor when I used the potty, and weeks later I started having aches and a fever

As a second post in my series of terminology rants (this was unplanned, but it seems to be what I feel like ranting about), I'd like to talk about the recent appearance of the term "True Infantilism."As far as I know (someone please correct me if I'm wrong), the term was coined by Kathi Stringer of www.toddlertime.com; she explains it in the essay "What Is True Infantilism?" The basic idea (not

Just a bit of a terminology rant here.Google "infantilism" and the first result you get is the Wikipedia article on "Paraphilic Infantilism." This article describes various aspects of what I've usually just seen called infantilism.My problem is that, according to the DSM (the mental health profession's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), a paraphilia is a disorder, something

Hi again! Wow, it's been a while since I posted to this. Well, let's see if I can do better at staying up to date.This may be old news for people, or it may not. There's some kind of law against selling toddler sippy cups that hold more than 12 ounces of liquid in the USA. Ridiculous as that is, we're stuck with it, even those of us who would like our sippy cups to be larger than that.Well,

This is a test. Mostly I'm trying to see whether my Blogger configuration still works. If it does, maybe I'll post more here. If it doesn't, I'll probably rearrange things so as to use a different blogging system on my website (or possibly Blogger with a different configuration).

Hi folks, if anybody's watching -- PacifiersRUs is a site I found today. They buy Nuk 5 pacifiers from MAPA in Germany (you won't find the Medic Pro Saugtrainer on this page; it only has their products for babies), dismantle them, and combine them with pacifiers made for actual babies using a process they call MonSep12©. What they end up with (and sell to you) is a pacifier with an adult-size

Apparently the latest suspect in the murder of JonBenet Ramsey was "shadowed by gender issues since his early years" and was visiting a Thai clinic that does cosmetic surgery as well as sexual-reassignment surgery, having some facial hair removed in preparation for a future sex-change operation.Why am I remarking about this? Well, why is anybody? The second article I link above calls this

Hi. What a boring update this is. But basically since the Munch has been held in Bloomington for the past several months due to not very many people coming who don't live in Bloomington, I'm just saying we'll go with Bloomington unless somebody would rather meet in Greenwood. Here's the new page (same address as the old page, but with new content):Central Indiana AB/DL Munch

I had never heard of such devices being produced before today, but aparently the Queen's Square Bladder Stimulator is a vibrating device that, when held against the skin over the bladder, just above the pubic region and activated, assists the bladder in emptying. Usually this is for people with serious neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis, to make sure the bladder empties fully,

Conversation continues on the munch Yahoo group about RSVPing for the monthly AB/DL munches, but the two people who have responded so far think it wouldn't be amiss at all for me to make sure someone's coming before heading to the munch myself. Meanwhile, about diaper and wetting alarms. There were at one time musical diaper alarms available -- a little clip-on device would attach to the

It's probably time for me to come out and admit it: I was the only one present at the last two munches (August 20 and September 17, 2005). High gas prices probably have something to do with it; they were already on the rise because of increasing worldwide demand for crude oil, and then Hurricanes Katrina and Rita hit the Gulf of Mexico. Gas has been above $2.70/gallon for months and has

Although the AB side of my life has slowed down to a great extent lately, I did give a presentation on ageplay and adult baby play at the Great Lakes Leather Alliance convention this past weekend. It was on a Saturday morning, but there were 6 people there. One of them was also into adult baby play and was in her one-piece fuzzy jammies -- it turns out that she is also into puppy play; the

It's been a while since I posted anything. I wish I could stay more current, but there really hasn't been that much happening in my baby life.Heidi's Dreamhouse is the web page of HeidiLynn, a Phoenix, Arizona AB. The Phoenix New Times recently published an article about Heidi.The article talks about the CSI episode from February, "King Baby," but claims it was on CSI:Miami, which is wrong.
