Some days just seem emotionally draining, even when nothing really significant happens. My best friend here in Washington, Deidra, has one of her old friend shere to visit...a woman named Joy. I knew it would be a little bit uncomfortable being around someone from my friends past, but last night was something else. I walk in to Deidra's house, not really dressed up but not looking disgusting either and Deidra's in the kitchen making Strombloi and drinking red apple martinis. She offers for me to grab my own, as she's cooking, so I get a martini glass and pour my own drink. She and I are talking and laughing like we always do when her friend walks into the kitchen. My first impression, and mind you I'm not proud of it was...."OMG, she looks like a crack whore." She was SUPER skinny, bad skin, sunk in eyes and making little to no sense when she spoke. It was an .....uncomfortable situation. I have this one person, Deidra, who I love and cherish as my close and dear friend, and then her close and dear friend whom I see as a..uhm...freak, sort of. We didn't hit it off, yet I tried to be nice and find a common ground between the 2 of us through out the night. SHOPPING!!! I'd heard she loves to shop...but she loves to shop for ELECTRONICS! My fetish is clothes and shoes..so no ribbon won in that catagory.:/ She's telling a story about how she recently left her husband and moved into her new place. Well, the CABLE GUY came over and she offered him some tequilla and they ended up getting it on!!!! OMG, I thought that only happened in Red Shoe Diaries..or worse, something like Penthouse Forum..of which I do NOT read, swear to God on high! Now today, I haven't heard from Deidra and usually we talk at least twice a day. I tried..I mean I REALLY tried to get along with this girl!!! *sigh*
