Spankless Task

I haven't been spanked for more than a week and it's no good. I've had spanking droughts before but this one is getting to me because I've been charged with some tasks by my husband and told I must get them done, he's relying on me to provide my womanly opinion and those of friends and acquaintances on the subject of cosmetics.

Now all women know about cosmetics, we build our knowledge over the years and it becomes second nature but try analysing all you've learned and going through products individually and explaining them to a man. What's good, what's bad, which companies lie, what does and doesn't work, what makes me buy or consider buying a new product, all sorts of things he wants to know. And not just from me because he accepts that different users may get a different experience from the same product.

P wants to know all this stuff because his age old China partner and friend have an opportunity to cooperate with a nascent Korean cosmetics company which would like to get into Europe via the UK. They are young but vibrant and Korea has a good reputation in that sector of personal care, which P thinks might be ripe for disruption. God the stuff he gets into.

Anyway I'm doing my bit as best I can but every time I ask someone about it they want to talk about it over coffee or tea or a beer and it's time consuming and P isn't interested in the chit chat (but he should be) all he wants is my collective findings neatly summarised and explained in a way that a man can understand. Now he's quite serious about this and I'm taking it seriously too, I've even enlisted the help of my hairdresser whose salon does beauty treatments too, but it means I'm being basically good and constructive and not getting into the sort of situations which get me spanked, well not so far.

I suppose I could ask for a reward spanking at the end of it but he doesn't generally go for that sort of thing. I can't foul up because it might become important, well it already is or he wouldn't have asked me to help and in any case I like that he has. Perhaps I could have a beer too many with one of my friends, or pretend to have done, and use stress relief as my excuse. Then he could administer a dose of his own stress relief, the best sort I know. Or maybe I'll submit a couple of lunch bills to him and ask for expenses:)

We'll see. But so far it's an interesting but spankless task and this woman wants both.

Have a good week.
