Phone call from my mother this afternoon.

"So where were YOU last night?"

"I told you I wasn't going to come home!"

"Where did you stay?"

"Guess."

"With who?"

"Mother, do you REALLY want to have this conversation with me?"

"no, I guess I don't."

"OK then."

My Barnes & Noble guy (three dates guy) and my tattoo shop guy met today at B&N. How amusing that there are so few tattooed guys on Hilton Head that they immediately were both like "Hey, do YOU know aoife?"

I can picture them sizing each other up, like you men do (don't deny it), checking out each other's tattoos and muscles and New York/New...

I'm listening to the new S-K right now, but I'm one of those evil downloading types. So far it's very scream-y and distortion-y. Mmmm...

Enough bitching. The coolest lady was in the bike shop today--probably in her sixties, Rita Hayworth-dyed red hair, movie star makeup, a cool hat and bow in her hair, wearing a tank top that showed multiple surgery scars and a weird lump on her chest (What does a pacemaker look like?) and she was the COOLEST person. Just funny and happy and winking and smiling...

I have been in a completely shitty mood since Tuesday. Irrationally, uselessly, angrily down. Just--BAH! Coupled with that is the edgy conviction that everyone hates me. Everyone from the boy (who would have no reason to hate me, and assures me that he does not) to John Doe in my interview today (who was totally cool and funny) to old friends who are shite at...

aficionado:
man, people who don't return phone calls piss me off while while at the same time leave me incredibly depressed. And I can't friggin trust anyone to call ME because when people say that they will, they never actually DO. So it falls upon ME. rawr!!

Mix cds rock. I love making them for anyone and everyone. It excites me to no end.

And the American Dream is a crock o' shit. big ol' pan o' poop . . .

Wow. Today kinda sucked.

I know, that's not terribly informative or anything. So I will just say that instead, after a couple of good days, the eternal balance just had to remind me that being happy is not a constant state of being, and that most people do indeed suck.

Third date was fun. We talk politics and rock and make out like teenagers, and...

Late date tonight. Got to stay up and read the NY Times and hate the world.

I was much happier when I never read the news and had no idea about what went on in the Senate and in other countries. It was probably just as shitty, but I didn't know about it, so I just worried about little things.

I ate too much tonight....

you were in my dream last night. i don't remember much about it, but i think you told me that in college you'd see blondie five nights in a row.

i think in my dream we went to college in the late seventies.

i was remembering all kinds of things from my child hood, like the cardboard containers dannon yogurt used to come in. god i loved those things.

Whoo-ee. I am tired as hell. This social life thing is killing me. wink Plus, my doctor thinks I might be iron deficient or have mono, either one of which would account for why I'm so damn tired all the time.

But of course, I feel guilty if I don't get some work done in the evenings after my 9-hour day at the bike shop, 6...

Second date update! heh. I hope you enjoy this--my girl-talk buddy has been busy with her long-distance boyfriend, so I'm spilling here. Picture a plate of sushi and a beer between us while reading this, and those of you who know my voice can picture me giggling. wink

So I figured out what it is that puts me off about this boy. He reminds me of...

No, I luvre it. I haven't had a period at all since I started using it, which means I haven't had PMS, which means that I've been generally much less psycho. I was even able to stop taking anti-depressants a few months after I started depo because it stablized my mood so much. The staff at my local Planned Parenthood told me about the bone density thing, so I'm going to start taking calcium and D suppliments. It's really the best birth control option for me... I was on The Pill for years, but I was always forgetting to take it and I can't use a diaphram or IUD because I have a tilted cervex (my uterus is almost horizontal!), making those things difficult to instert/keep in place. I know about the sex-offender thing too, and I think it's also being used by some male-to-female transsexuals as part of their hormone regiment. Thank you for the warnings, but to me anything is better than turning into a pre-menstral mental case one week out of every four.

No second date as of yet. Guy seems to have gone from too much to no time. So anyway. I'll report on that when/if it happens. I will seriously be pissed if that guy put in all that effort just to stop completely. Then again, it will prove that indeed, he was too good to be true.

And why should I be surprised?

I may...

OK. Complete, unadulterated date review.

First off, overall he gets an 8. Lest I seem overcritical.

Pros: Opens car doors, building doors, any kinda door. Pays for dinner and drinks. (I know it's unfeminist of me. Eff that, sometimes a girl likes to feel spoiled.) We've already covered the hot part--black hair, blue eyes, sexy arms, etc. Funny, and not afraid to be a dork....

Today fuckin' rules.

Work, as usual, is, well, work. Stopped by Starbucks to say goodbye to Karl, who is moving to Atlanta.

Back at the shop, I was standing around outside doing, well, nothing, when Lisa came back out to look for me.

"You're wanted by the hot guy," she said.

I go back inside. And not only has he returned the clipboard that my...

Happy is good.
merry:
Thanks. I think I'm okay with it. The boy was going to be unable to move with me, so I was having these nightmarish visions of being in a new city where I know 3 people out of several million, studying in a program probably a lot more challenging thatn what I'm used to, and missing the boy. So at least I don't have to worry about that. Now I'm scared to death of having to get a job as a telemarketer. surreal

So there's this mysterious tattooed cute guy with glasses that works at the Barnes & Noble here on Hilton Head. For those of you not familiar with the place where I live, it's a little island in South Carolina entirely inhabited by tourists and college students and rich golfers. Not exactly the type of place that tattooed rocker boys move to, and my friends and...
