Or at least I thought we were. Then we seperated. All over the world. Me in Africa, Buffy in Rome, and Willow in Brazil. It hasn't been the best seperation. I got a job as a tour guide for an African museum or 'the' african museum. So, I stand up in a bus while some guy who I don't understand drives around South Africa. I speak into a damn microphone about the first sky scraper and so on.
It gets old. Real fast. I guess I thought I was heading in an arcitectual direction. But here, there aren't as many jobs. Even with my credentials! But apparently I don't speak South African. And understanding those guys, it's a bitch. Every now and then I do patrol. I fight the occasional vampire. Killed one egyptian God.
I had a fling with the daughter of the curator. She's a Slayer. Me and Slayers. First I pine for Buffy, then Faith gets me in the sack. And now Liana. She's beautiful don't get me wrong. She's just not for me. So we just have sex. There are some dinners, most not romantic as they should be.
I broke it off last week. She was only 20. I didn't want her throwing her life away for me. I turned the page of the "latest and newest tour information for a tour guide" for my route tomorrow. It's as boring as it sounds.
All television is in African! Even American television. I mean, there is The O.C. But it's not in English. So, for meaningless and mostly never fun I dub in what people are saying. So far Summer and Seth are having an affair and there parents (cause there brother and sister) are just horrified. Clearly not the plot, but hey sue me! I can't understand a God damn word!
Okay so I'm directionless. Just as much as the next guy! I just went somewhere else. The thought of moving to Rome crossed my mind or moving to L.A. to help out Angel and the gang at Evil Law Firms R Us. But the evil part kind of pushes me away from that idea.
I guess what I'm trying to say is my life has sucked majorly lately. I tried calling Liana, maybe just have one more fling. But she wouldn't return my calls. So, I'm stuck in my African apartment with Africans all around me, and noone to understand. And noone who understands me.
