Well, its been a while since I posted. So here I am. Rock me like a hurricane. Wait... we already had one a few days ago. Ha! Vancouver Island got rocked, apparently. I heard on the news that Port Alberni and Denman Island got it particularly bad (trees crashing into cars and houses, power outages lasting over a week). Thank goodness I moved to the mainland. Here in Slurrey, we got a bit of wind, a few small sapling trees knocked over, the power was out for like half an hour, and then that fat lady sang. We got a little bit of snow last night, too. It was about one in the morning when my photographer left and we saw the snow falling. I love watching snow fall at night. Its all gone this morning. It hasn't kept cold enough to keep it on the ground.
So I got new photos done. My buddy is a photographer and holy shit he's done the best photos I've ever had taken. And apparently some people have been asking about getting me to model, so I might be doing that on the side which is really exciting. I can't wait to get the photos from this session. They're really good. Some of them are so good you'd expect to see "Eternity by Calvin Klein" or something in the bottom corner. He's also doing me a website, which is stellar because now I'll have a place to show off all my photos!
Things with Crystal and I are good. She's getting involved with this guy who's a total creep. He's not a bad guy he's actually really nice which makes this all so much harder. But he's an alcoholic. I'm not embellishing, he really is. In the four days Crys and him have been hanging out, he's been drunk every time. Yesterday C had to go to work early and during the time she left at half past seven and the time I woke up at noon, he had drunk a whole mickey of Bacardi from the freezer, polished off a good ten shots of the Crown Royal C has in her room, and finished off the five beer that were left over. This is first thing in the morning! He has a serious problem. But the bitch of it all is that C is like most other women in that when a person has a problem they think that if they love and care for them enough, the problem will get dealt with. The mothering instinct. But guys like him take advantage of that. I'm worried that she's not going to be as firm with him as she ought to be. What she needs to do is totally disassociate with him. Don't see him anymore, don't talk to him anymore, nothing. There's heaps of guys out there that are better for her than him. But I think she'll probably try to stay casual but still see him. I hate watching this happen, especially knowing how this will likely end. People won't change unless they are ready, and its a fairy tale to think otherwise. But I've been in similar situations with people who were no good for me at all and I wouldn't listen to higher reasoning. But Crystal just got out of a really shitty relationship with a total loser about a year ago. I know she's lonely, but did she forget already? Its better to be lonely than to have a crappy relationship.
Her friend Kim, poor girl, spend most of yesterday with this charming man. He has thoroughly creeped her and I out. When we were doing photos in my room, Kim came in to hang out with us to get away from him. And the dirty son of a bitch kept trying to poke his head in. I told him three times to get lost because for one its my turf and he's not invited and as if that's not reason enough I reminded him that he has no right to be trying to sneak a glance at his girl's friend half naked. Fucking creep.
Kim, Crystal and I are all going to go out on the town sometime. I have known Kim for years, but she's never been a friend of mine. We're both friends with Crystal, and that's about the only time we see each other. But I've always liked her, and we're going to make an effort to go out for some girl time more often seeing as us three are the only female friends we have. Most of our friends and associates are men. I think it will be a fun night. Apparently last time Crystal got drunk she got absolutely plastered and when they were leaving the bar, a black guy was outside and C was like "wassup my nigga?" and other such things. Thank God she looked as wasted as she was otherwise she could have had herself in a bad scene. That and I'm sure the guy thought it was more funny than offensive. This big white girl with red hair talking like she's black. It is amusing. So I'm really looking forward to going out with the girls. Its been so long since I've had a good night out with friends. And I have yet to go to a club anywhere on the mainland. The only clubs I've been in in my whole life are all in Victoria. When I was in Halifax, didn't go out. When I lived in Van all those other times, I went to this one pub in Gastown. That's it. It'll be an adventure.
I'm going Boxing Day shopping with the money my male admirer's are sending me for Christmas, so I'm hoping that Christmas is like Halloween in the respect that all the candy and chocolates go on sale the day after. I have a serious adoration for Toffifee and I want to snag as many boxes as I can to tide me over until next year. Probably get some new clothes, too.
I hope everyone is doing well, and for my friends in Ottawa, I need your addresses! How can I send you holiday tidings with no frickin' address? Drop me a line and let me know how you are all doing.
A merry Yule to all!
