Yes, I have been affected.  Normally I would have flown someone in to meet me in a heartbeat… even if just for a nice date.  Nowadays I’m thinking that even if airfare isn’t prohibitive, if the “date” goes well and they have LTR potential, the cost of shipping all there stuff will be outrageous.
or find someone LOCAL[;)]

Yeah, I'm really frustrated.  Its not just the exonomy (lol) but my apparant inability to find a job.  I'm totally stuck.

It sucks.  I'm something of a road warrior, and love traveling to meet people.  It used to be my entertainment.  I'd drive hours just to have a cup of coffee.  (Once I drove 12 hours to deliver a 45 min presentation at a conference then turned right around and went home.)

I'm going stir crazy.  I haven't been anywhere in ages.  But, with gas upwards of 4.25 a gallon, and no income at the moment, I'm pretty sure I'll be keeping my ass close to home for a while.

I could put you to work in a heart beat... the pays sucks but the benefits are awesome!!!
 
And I can't say it's really effected us but then again, we don't really have any bills to speak of. I can say we don't drive the dually as much as we used to.

I clicked on the thread to find out what an exonomy was, and felt rather stupid that I didn't know.
LOL
The price of gas hasn't affected my play yet but I'm less interested in boys from out of town than I was a year ago. Also less likely to travel to attend a workshop or other event in Calgary (my sister city, 3 hours from my house).
Grr.

Careful there, ma'am.  Cause, like, ya know, you might wake up tomorrow morning to find me on your door step sitting on a suitcase with a sign around my neck that says, "employ me!"  :)

I was expecting a thread about exogamy: the pros and cons of dating outside your primary reference group and its impact on bd/sm play (or something like that). lol




NumberSix -> RE: Is the exonomy effecting your BDSM lives? (7/6/2008 11:25:50 AM)

I have been wracking my brain....
is an exonomy more like a taxidermy or is it more at inflammable?

Or, as the saying goes....

Am I the only one?

The economy is putting a real damper on how often Daddy and I can go to the club since we have about an hour's drive (damn traffic).  We both have free admission passes to use because we helped with the club's spring cleaning two weekends in a row, but the damn gas prices are insane and it's hard to justify driving 2 hours R/T when He can beat my ass at home.

Dear SJ - spoiling is wonderful.  It certainly gets my vote.  [:)]

I figure it's only fair... I'm spoiled rotten!

yes...
 Our's became a LDR several years ago.  The idea was to plan trips back and forth from Az to Ga and visa-versa as often as possible.   "possible" has redefined itself due to the exxconomy, planefares, gas, income levels....ACCKkkkk
    
now I'm depressed [:o]
 
[sm=imissu.gif]

Az to Ga.....are there two new planets i don't know about.......?? Now that's what I call an LDR!




Prinsexx -> RE: Is the exonomy effecting your BDSM lives? (7/6/2008 4:02:34 PM)

i think the word exonomy is so brilliant you should add it to the urban dictionary defined as anti-economy, a period of capitalist meltdown, situation of negative equity, a time where even air is costly (and bdsm is a lifestyle only afforded by extreme masochists).....[:D]




coupleowl -> RE: Is the exonomy effecting your BDSM lives? (7/6/2008 4:17:33 PM)

Yeah that Economy is causing a tad bit of problems with the way I want to go about things. Lucky I bought a bulk of stuff before I got burried to my neck in bills. 




Griswold -> RE: Is the exonomy effecting your BDSM lives? (7/6/2008 6:48:42 PM)

Economy spelt with an X. Or some marketing scheme to get kids interested in world trade.




Danner -> RE: Is the economy effecting your BDSM lives? (7/6/2008 7:49:13 PM)

Wwe are just thankful Wwe are both working full time and paying the bills.  Wwe have held off buying any new toys or clothes. Any plans Wwe might make for driving more than 2 hours to meet Oothers in the lifestyle has been suspended. 
This is one recession it would be wise to respect.
