Nyxon vs. The Horse, And Other Failures

I'm not going to bore you with every sordid detail of the Detroit portion of my trip, my Detroit "vacation", if you will, but I will give you some highlights, and lowlights.

The drive from Illinois up to Detroit was pretty uneventful. The highlight of that drive, for me, was the rest stop I stopped at, and the Dairy Queen that I ate at. Seriously. They were both at the beginning of Route 66, so you can imagine how geeked out I was ;) No worries, I took some pics ;)






I got to JJ's place shortly after 11pm, and me, her, Tony (Gotcuffs) & Eric went down the street for quesadillas & bad karaoke. Eric sang 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' which was definitely a highlight. We got back home, and I went right to sleep. That was the only night that I stayed at JJ's. The rest of the week, I spent with Eric at his concrete campground, lol. It wasn't too bad, I guess ;)


Tuesday night, Eric & I did our first shoot, which was successful. It was a strappado with some weird face bondage, nose hooks & a set of nipple clamps on each boob. The shoot went well, I did great, and I felt great when it was all done. Yay!


Wednesday night, we attempted another shoot with a cool concept that Eric came up with. We had watched 'Casino' the night before, and he wanted to do a clip where he was the Joe Pesci character & I was caught cheating in the casino. We were going to use the horse that he just  built, and I was really excited! Well, I failed. Miserably. I have decided to include a picture of the horse & share my shame.


 This was the first time that I have ever actually called a shoot, so I took it kind of hard, and I was upset at myself. We watched some of the footage the next day, and you can see where I started to fall apart. I got really sweaty, my head got fuzzy & I started to fade, but I didn't actually black out, which I guess is a good thing.


Thursday night, we attempted to do a gag custom, which I have done about 3 times for him in the past. Well, I called it after the second gag. In fact, I couldn't even get through the second gag. I felt like such a wimp, but the pain in my jaw was even more excruciating than usual, and I just couldn't take it. I know what happened to my jaw, but I won't go into details, here. I just hope that the pain goes away, and my jaw goes back to normal, because even doing the usual gags that I do, is becoming problematic. Sorry, Luc. It looks like I can't take you to the highest point in heaven ever again :(


Friday, I had a shoot with Chris Nero, and then a shoot with Pantybound. Both shoots went great! Below is a pic from my shoot with Chris.


 Saturday night,I had a shoot with Lowdown In Motown, and that was a success! Eric & I were going to attempt to do another custom, but he could only find one Hooter's sock. Soooo....after wasting our lives away at Wal-mart looking for slouch socks, we decided to lay in bed eating chocolate & watched 'Old School'. Lots of giggling happened ;)

Sunday, was sort of a leisurely day (well, they all kinda were). Eric & I grabbed dinner, and then we were going to shoot that damn Hooter's custom. I did really well until he put me on my stomach, did the hogtie, and then had a panic attack. I didn't say anything about the panic attack to him, well I guess he'll know if he reads this. Eric, do you even read this? Haha....anyway, I failed at that one, too. I really don't know what my problem was this week. I know that I had a lot going on emotionally/mentally in the beginning of my trip, and I suppose that that could have contributed to what happened to me in Detroit. I talked to my friend Serene, and she suggested that maybe I had some sort of mental block going on. Who knows..... I am, however, questioning whether or not I'll be able to work with Eric in the future. Fail :(

After that debacle, I had a quick shoot with JJ & Tony that went really well. I still had some jaw pain, but I hung tough, and got the job done!
