Apologies, I am on holiday in foreign climes and reliant on roaming on a French mobile network so am catching up.

It is one of the (many) remarkable things about your journey that you have had so little difficulty with fit. I am on my 8th cage / ring combo and currently out of my cage recovering from yet another rubbed sore patch. I seem to have very thin skin, which tears easily, and even adding a strap was enough to wear two sores on top of my shaft. Without a strap, I have a sore patch under my scrotum.

For people like me, cages are a very precise science - ring too big and balls escape, rings too small and instant pain. Keeping your balls warm seems key - the optimal temperature seems to be somewhere above 16°C- balls floppy enough to fit inside the gap. Any lower and pinching occurs.

I just think I have been very lucky to have not have many issues. The only bad experiences were with the CB6000s and once I moved away from that, it's been much easier most of the time. Even the CB6000s had its benefits though - it was useful for experimenting with the ring sizes.

So there we go.
Back in the 38.
Miss Emmie says it all looks ok after the body lotion and baby oil.

Em: I'd rather you get more sensation over the next 3 weeks.
Me: By 'sensation' do you mean 'frustration'?
Em: Yes, that as well.

Awake super early thanks to the 38. It seems so much more intense after a few days in the mild little Cobra. I've been lying here for the last hour with repeated erection attempts prevented.

Miss Emmie will be pleased to learn that she's achieved the additional 'sensations' that she wanted.

I know those frustrations so well. My current cage is the absolute best I’ve tried in all ways except the fact that it took me well over two weeks to get used to sleeping with it. Night time erections woke me up every night around 04.30 and I had to get up and pee to have any hope to get back to sleep.
It finally seems to have settled down over the last week and a half so I’m glad Red isn’t planning on changing my cage anytime soon.
I’m locked and kept by Redraven, my life partner, soulmate and loving key holder. When life is hard, she’s keeps me feeling loved.

:D

Disturbed sleep is unfortunate.
An undesirable by-product.

One of the plus points of changing cages is the increased awareness and reminders.
Reminders are good.
Everything's better with a locked male. Better still with a nude, locked male.

Reminders are good.
Ten weeks in and obviously going through a peak of horniness just now. Another early wake up for the same reason. Already been awake for almost an hour. Why does it always have to be so early? Miss Emmie wouldn't be pleased if I woke her this early so I end up having to just lie here and put up with the undesirable by-product.

At least I'm getting the benefits of awareness and reminders and reminders are good apparently.

There's no "off" switch, is there?

It takes a while to settle, doesn't it?
I've noticed that with Herbs.

But I think it's a positive. A change causes awareness.
A reminder. I think that's useful. One of the reasons that I like to chop and change.

If I could take away the disturbed sleep bit, then I would but otherwise, it's just what it's all about.
