another dirty money heaven-sent-honey turning on a time
Gahhhhhh what a weekend. I performed tecktonik as one of the acts for the International Festival, and it was a bit of a mess. It'd kinda been stressing me out as the last few days got busier and I had less time to come up with somethin. Haha, it became abundantly clear shortly after I got on stage what a difference being on a few rickety risers instead of a solid floor makes when trying to do acrobatics. It's like a lot of the momentum you can put into taking off is negated and all the stick you need in order to keep your balance turns into wobbliness. Kinda interesting. It almost felt a tiny bit like being on ice.
Well, after my "performance", I finally felt like I could relax, kickoff my weekend, and enjoy bein around Jordan more, who I'd been looking forward to seein again aallll week. My friends and I threw a joint birthday party for Lauren and myself, which turned out pretty awesome. We had a lot of people over in my tiny-ass appartment, unabashed in their intentions to have a good time. I played a lot of house music, and people seemed to really dig it considering our living room kinda transformed into a dancefloor. Everyone was gettin their groove on! So fun. Later there were people making out all over the place, and considering quite a number of people left to go hook up, there was a looottt of lovin going on. I woke up to pry my contacts off my eyes in the morning, and the kitchen looked like a bomb had gone off in it, lol.
Saturday I saw Quantum of Solace with Jordan. Fuck I love the new Bond! Whoever is in charge of the way the franchise has turned gets my admiration. Everything about it is just so much sexier. I love the gritty action everywhere, and the fact Bond has to be so much more physical. He's a hot mofo and they aren't afraid of showing that off like most movies directed at straight guys are. The new Bond girls are their own characters instead of objectified plot device accompaniments, and they're even dangerous and get to him emotionally. There's just something which allows me to appreciate these movies and the new Bond in a way I can't for a lot of action movies, in which the hero is pretty much devoid of sexuality and his women are nothing but fake commercial sexuality, and both are threadbare in terms of depth. There's a lot of twisting in Quantum of Solace, which is pretty great, and there's more scandalous material. It lacks a bit in terms of the crazy grandeur, but the villains are different in this movie, so it makes sense. Also; I think one of my new favorite things in the world is seeing the trippy intro sequences in a theater while baked. That was pretty damn gorgeous...the one for this movie is a little subdued, but the shifting sand/bodies motif is sexy and I like the theme song (still think it should've been done with Amy Winehouse though).
A fun party, time with the boyfriend, and a new Bond movie...basically all I could ask for in a weekend! Damn, I love hanging out with Jordan no matter what we do...but my weekends go by sooo damn fast it's ridiculous. We got a lil intimate time today, which rocked, but I still end up feeling a weird withdrawal when he either has to leave or I have to come back here. Makes me wonder what things will be like when I'm back in the cities for j-term and he's not 70 mins away...can't wait.
