Hi, everyone!

Wow, Vegas is a lot - a lot of traffic, a lot of beautiful ladies and a lot of amazing fun folks and I’m so happy to be here!  Yesterday was a bit of a hell day with travel, but I still got to meet lots of wonderful toy people, porno people and more.  Special thanks to the awesome people at Good Releasing/Good Vibrations who threw one hell of a party last night.  This picture should more than explain the wonderfulness of the whole night:

AAAAAAH!  It’s Jiz Lee + me + Nina Hartley!

Today will be lots of visiting people and talking about the upcoming Feminist Porn Awards!  Can’t wait.  I’m armed with buttons and flyers and a big bottle of Gatorade.  I’m really looking forward to today’s panel about women in porn including such amazing people as Tristan Taormino, Shine Louise Houston, Nica Noelle and more!

Okay!  More updates soon!

I am still reeling from an incredible and inspiring weekend!  It all started off at the Berkeley Church on Friday, and what a venue!  It was so swank, and everybody I talked to loved it!  We had some special guests in the house including Jiz Lee, Syd Blakovich, Madison Young, Courtney Trouble, Tobi Hill-Myer, Mimi Balfour, Joanne Loton (who filmed the awards for an upcoming documentary!), Ken Rowe, not to mention some superstar presenters including Jess Dobkin, Bobby Noble, Jessica Yee, J. D. Bauchery, Sasha Van Bon Bon and many more. Boylesque did an AMAZING job as our trophy boys, and Raging Asian Women started us off with some incredibly powerful taiko drumming that was so mesmerizing and brought tears to my eyes! CoCo La Creme did a beautiful tribute to Josephine Baker, and was gorgeous as always.  And Daddy K and the Rhythm Method did a stellar job with their gigantic dance performance - 12 people on stage treating us to their interpretations of a lesbian pajama party, Mormons gone deliciously perverted and some sweet slick moves that raised the bar on their already awesome repertoire!

I’m waiting to see the video footage of Madison Young’s acceptance of her award for Indie Porn Pioneer, but it’s too dirty to put on YouTube.  But Here’s Dylan Ryan accepting her Heartthrob of the Year trophy: (courtesy of Jiz Lee)
