tonight = kick ASSENSTEIN.
up until tonight, the highlight of my day had been getting a flu shot at saint rob's. oh whee.
then,
melanthafae and I are chatting online, and we both feel shitty, so she says, hey, wanna go hang? and I'm like, hex yeah.
we went to venice beach, and guess what, I have 3 new piercings. I got an extra hole in each ear, and a piercing in my cartilidge (sp?) in my upper right ear. got three piercings at a venice beach piercing/tattoo parlor. mary got a barbell- er, I forget the real word for it- bar shaped thing pierced through the top of her right ear. and it was awesome. I've never gotten body doings with someone else before.... what a way to bond.
we exchanged music and got a great chance to get to know each other more. what struck me about mary was that she went beyond the status of being my lj friend who happened to go to my school, to being someone who regularly checked on me and actually cared for my well-being, and let me know it. there were hugs to be had, and I felt tremendously happy to remember the feeling of being hugged and appreciated. it's amazing how far simple gestures like that go- they're humble, and simple, and yet, extend to tremendous lengths.
after din-din and music, we went to el hamba huice on campus and she made me a chocolate moo'd. ^^ not wanting to stop playing, we hopped back in her ride, yo, homie g, and made our way over to west hollywood. I've decided I wanna spend way more time in west hollywood, because it's a haven for fag hags like me. we went to a porn store- the biggest porn store I've ever seen in my LIFE. oh girls, oh rubber ducks, how I remembered you and wished you could have been there-- you would've been amazed. like, toys in babeland what??
and then my mom called. while I was at the porn store. my phone rings, and I go, "oh.....hi, mommy!!" and the guy working at the counter laughed so hard at me.
I'm hoping to get a chance to go back there and hang around at the clubs and make some gay friends. plus, now I've gotta go out and show off my sexy piercings. hell yes.
for the record, this brings my total to 6 (six) piercings and 1 (one) tattoo.
in the future, I may consider an eyebrow ring, but that's a big maybe. I promised myself I'd wait until I was 20 or 21 to get my other tattoo.
this was exactly what I needed. mary seriously kicks major ass, no matter what, and I'll sleep happy tonight knowing I have her as a new friend to hang around with. I missed the b-ball game tonight, and missed being with the cage, and I don't care. there are other games. tonight, I got three piercings, a really yummy cheeseburger, a free jamba juice, a tour of west hollywood, and, best of all, a kickass acquaintance. we have a lot in common, have been through similar things, and it's all enough to make me look at everything going down lately, spit it in the eye, and tell it to quit fucking around with my life.
