megan had to go home and cook dinner, and i had to go home and help my aunt [who's visiting from l.a.] unpack. She got here on tuesday. My other aunt from NYC gets here tomorrow.
i have to work tomorrow and a fucking million other things. I'm not feeling very impressed by my schedule. i got...

saw the word "writer" in your profile.
explain the process to getting published.
because i have my first draft and it's just sitting here
Well that would depend on quite a number of different things.
How developed is your draft? Are you close to having it be, in your view, good enough?
What kind of work is it?
First step is to start working on polishing or otherwise developing your piece. Second is to start working on good summaries and introductory letters for sending to publishers. Then you should buy the Canadian Writers Market book. It lists many many publishers.
Writing is a great activity, fun and rewarding. Trying to get published is not. It is living hell. Dont even try if you cant take rejection and uncertainty or if you have no patience. The basic process is to send inquiry letters out to every publisher you can get an address for and that even slightly fits the style of your work. Then they either dont respond
If you dont feel your draft is ready for publishing as is I would suggest you find some people to give you feedback, like a writers group. You could even post segments to one of the two writers groups on SG. I might be interested in starting a new writers group in Vancouver so that might be a possibility.
Respond some and I will see what I can do to answer more of your questions or help you.
quite usual for a sugar fiend such as myself
there are few things i hate more than questions like, "what's up?"
the entire reason i keep an online diary is so i don't have to answer such mundane quesitons.
i think i've done a lot of growing recently. My fantastic day reflects this.
years ago, i'd spend nights sitting on my tree, staring at the stars and moon wondering why i felt so...

This sucks ALOT.
oh man, this is so not attractive,.
waaaaah!!!
Don't go to "New Mondo Salon" on hornby. I don't think she knows what she is doing.
girls as far as new york city, japan, belguim and australia have cried on behalf of the breakup between keith and myself.
but good news from new york! I am the feature of the new bellavendetta banner ad. How sweet is this?
i have many a photoshoot coming up. I'm feeling more nervous than anything else.
it's aggravating how with every SG...

i am in love with myself.
is that not the most conceited thing EVER?!
i danced the night away with torquil.
earlier on, yesterday, i had sent an email to keith that i written awhile ago. An e-mail that had left me exhausted from forming ALL my emotions and thoughts into words.
the relief that i felt from writing that email is nothing...

To go along with torq dissing keith -- do guys (and I'm wondering if I have been subconsciously guilty of this as well) automatically feel the need to denigrate boyfriends/significant others of girls they find attractive? Do they think it will make themselves look more appealing in the woman's eyes...?
I have, over the last few weeks, learned of disparaging comments made about me to my girlfriend... by people I don't even know! A few of them were guys she used to date, a few guys she met just recently. They will play upon one or two facts about me, or even a fucking photograph, and all of a sudden I'm painted in a negative light. To my girlfriend's credit, she defends me unquestionably... and always laughs about the feeble attempts at ego-boosting.
But... wow... is this just something guys do? Have I done it? Do girls think it's cute and flattering or cheap and pathetic?
due to pica_pica's comment.. i feel the need to explain somethings.
this account was a free gift from Missy to me. In hopes that i would like to become an SG. [Speaking of which, i'll talk to megan about that today when i see her.] I figured megan would benefit more out of this account seeing as how she's to be my photographer...

back to back update.
who knows.. i might even write another one after this.
have i recently mentioned just how much i love megan?
cuz i love her lots. And lots.
Her, John and Keith were probably the only non-family members to come visit me. Granted, i got lots of e-mails and pages and calls [ from new york and l.a. ]....

new friends, new lovers, new environments....
change is in the air.
But it's good.
What caused the hospital visit? No worries if you don't want to say, or use the contact page (or e-mail) if you don't want to say on the board...
Are you supposed to take it easy for a while? Let your body recover? Allow Megan to rub you down, and give you sponge baths?
omg.
everything's been absolutely insane.
i feel quite mentally unstable. I was discharged from the hospital on thursday. and graduated on friday.
technically, today's saturday but it's 4 fucking a.m.
everything is changing much to fast.
at the same time... i wanted this didn't i? Or at least, i do now. [ i think i do ]
I feel the need to start on...

other than that. i'm sexually grumpified.
i need a cock in my mouth

Yes, please take more pics...please please please
I'M SORRY I HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO UPDATE!!!
torquil's called AND paged at least once a day for the 2 weeks. I'm suddenly not so glad he now has his own phone.
Thursday: Got my hair done and visited Jacob, went down to Carter Motorsports, spent some quality time on a 2005 Goldwing which...

I can't help but wonder, throughout this sordid tale, where the whole Keith subplot is headed. Something about a moth and a flame, something, something...
I'm so glad I did learn how to make things by hand even though I now use tools and jigs and shortcuts to get it done faster/better. The knowledge of the "old ways" comes in real handy occasionaly. I wish I had not skipped over silver work because I know it would have helped to have those skills in my repertoire. Take the time to learn every pain in the ass thing that they are willing to teach you, you never know when it might come in handy.
