We’re Still Here…

daisy-clouds

Well, we’re still here.

I think only a small fraction of people believed the world would end today. Those are probably the same people who thought ‘Y2K’ and ‘9-11’ and the ‘Fiscal Cliff’ was going to be the end of it too.

Either way, I’m glad we all made it.

This will be my last blog entry of 2012. I’ll be logging off the blog-o-sphere and social networks for the next few days to enjoy some down time and re-charge for the year ahead.

If you’ve been following me on Facebook and SexySocials, you no doubt have heard murmurings about The Discovery Channel.

Producers from Discovery Channel have been talking to us at Maddy G Productions about doing a segment on a new show about “Interesting Lifestyles”. They’ve talked to me, and Jenny and Maddy and we’ve filled out questioners and sent lots of photos.

And that’s pretty much where we’re at with it.

There has been no official offer made so we have not committed to doing the show. I personally have some reservations about it, because some of the questions asked have been leading towards the “Are you a Doll Freak?” angle. Things like “Do you ride in cars?” , “Do you sit at the dinner table?” and “Are you included in family photos?”

Now I’ve always been fairly reserved about being a Polymerisian. I don’t’ make it a crusade, and I don’t make a big deal about it. It’s just who I am. I don’t consider my Poly Life even that far out of the ‘ordinary’ from most of my friends. Certainly not ‘freaky’.

In fact, the focus of my show, and much of my interaction on social sites specifically makes a point to show how NOT weird it all is. Simply put, I’m a normal chick, with an extraordinary body, with an intellect to match.

The producers have asked for access to my home, and on my shooting sets, and I think you all know me well enough to know that I take my job and my film work really seriously. I’m not that jazzed about a film crew getting in the way with questions like “Who dresses you?” and “How do you type?”

So, we’ll see how this plays out. I’m certainly interested in sharing my story and letting people see how ‘not weird’ my life actually is. If we can come to terms about access and the point of the piece, I’ll certainly play along. But if they are looking for a freak show about a ‘Chick who Fucks Dolls’, then they are going to have to look elsewhere.

I share parts of my sexuality as a small piece to the bigger puzzle that makes me who I am as a person. I’m not interested in making it the ‘whole story’.

Some of you have seen my cameo appearance in Jenny Densuke’s show “Regarding Jenny”.  The scene is a sexy dream sequence with Jenny’s girlfriend and writing partner Karen McCoy. If you watched it on Youtube, I think you still got the point, but if you paid the $4 for the uncensored download, you got to see quite a bit more.

We had a lot of fun, and Karen is more than a pleasure to work with. And as always, it’s a lot of fun to work on Jenny’s show. She runs her sets considerably different than I do, so it’s also an education, from someone who is a true pro at producing shows for the web.

Which brings me to the question of the month:

“When the F*ck are New ‘Tasha’ Episodes Coming?”

I hear you. No need to yell at me.

Most of ‘Episode 4’ is filmed, in fact, I think ALL of it is. I had to take a break for a few weeks to let my arms heal. If you’re following me on the social networks, you know I had surgery on my wrists.

I needed to take some time to fully heal before I could get back to shooting the show, or even photo shoots. Considering that “Extreme Posing” was the cause of my injuries to begin with, no one around me was willing to risk further injury by rushing it.

In the meantime, Jenny’s show went back into production and the Holiday’s came around, so I’ll be resuming shooting right after the 1st of the year. New photo shoots, new episodes, the whole thing.

In the meantime, here’s a shot from “Episode 4” so you know I’m not just pulling some kind of trick.

This is a scene from my first meeting with Mark and Maddy. This meeting is probably the turning point in my life, followed only by the meeting in which Maddy asked me to join her cast as a ‘Contract Girl’. An offer I ultimately refused.

So, lots more to look forward to in 2013. I need some time off to rest and get my head around the long list of ‘things’ that will be new this coming year. My job as Advertising Director at Maddy G is being expanded. We’ll be offering additional services like Social Networking and Youtube Channels for some of our advertisers, and we’ll be putting ourselves out there a lot more with some advertising and sponsorships of our own.

Plus, there’s a couple of new shows in the works that I think you’re going to really like, including the addition of at least two new Poly’s into our growing roster of stars. Including THIS guy, that more than a few of us ladies here are DYING to meet.

Finally, I just want to say “Thanks” to everyone on the cast, crew and production side of “It’s a Tasha Thing”. I couldn’t do any of it without you. It’s the combined talents of many people that make this ‘Thing’ so special.

And of course all my friends and fans who continue to tune in. Without you, there would be no ‘thing’.

I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday. I’ll see you in 2013.

I’ll be the hot Poly with bells on.
