Ah, the bliss of spending several days at home, with no holiday interference.
I live with my boyfriend. He doesn't celebrate. This was the first year that we didn't do one damn thing on Christmas day. We were tricked into celebrating fake Christmas last week, so we didn't get off scott free. But a whole day of basking, and reading, and enjoying each others company was nice. I did laundry and cleaned too, so it wasn't all fun and games. But, it was still peaceful.
And today after coming home we found a box of chocolate truffles on our porch, from our landlady who lives next door to us, no less. And a nice, non holiday wintery card saying we were great neighbours. Oh yes, we rock as tenants.
That or we were regifted.
Either way, we have too too sweet truffles in the house.
Went to see "Kinsey" last night. It was interesting, as I know nothing about him. But the movie was poorly done. The main character, and the man who plays his father are only a few years apart in age. So, needless to say, 'twas a bit of a stretch. But still, midly entertaining.
And ever since I asked coffee shop girl to pose for me I have had weird vibes from that place. Ok, let me explain. I go in there today with my housemate/bf and we get waited on by this one girl who is always there. She pointedly gives us the cold shoulder, a little "Humph!" kind of attitude. She was always nice to us, until a few weeks ago. And this is not the first time, we either get this kind of reaction, or lascivious smirks from the counter girls, just the women, not the men. I can only conclude a few hypothesis from this sudden weirdness. One: they are insulted I did not ask them to pose. Two: Maybe coffee shop girl talks about me constantly and they are sick of hearing about me (
oh please yes!). Three: The girl I asked has systematically gone through each one of the ladies and they are all disgruntled conquests (Muhahhahaha! She can conquer me anytime!). Four: They are disgusted by my obvious attention due to my attraction for her, and are bothered by same sex unions. Hmmm... Any other thoughts? These were just working theories that were happened upon while sitting there drinking our tea and coffee. And no, I'm not being paranoid. The vibes have just gotten too fucking weird, whether I am in there by myself or not, and all of the counter girls are generally very friendly with us. It wouldn't be the first time I encountered someone annoyed with the fact that I asked someone to pose and not them, so I think it may be this one overall.
By the way, what is with the stigma of being asked to pose by an artist? Everyone is so fucking flattered to be chosen by a fine artist. I guess you have the right to be, it generally denotes an attraction between said artist and said potential model. There is a fine line between attraction based on sexual interest and attraction based on mere workability of a potential model. I guess I always like to use women I am attracted to, hence why I asked my coffee girl to pose. But, it creates weirdness too, if I ask one girl in a group of friends I almost have to ask them all to make things smooth. Weird.
Sorry, just overmusing, as I tend to do. That's what this journal is good for.
Oh, and since nobody got the movie line last time, I will clue you all in. "Questions, questions, too many questions. You want a shard? Here." This line was spoken in "The Dark Crystal" by Augra. Now, it's been over ten years since I last watched this movie. It's still stuck in my head.
Whoops. Damn childhood movies!
And I started reading "Mists of Avalon" this morning. Thanks for the votes.

2. Do you have a typical style of clothes you like to wear? A uniform, if you will?

Please tell me that's not YOUR car
I am in a relationship. Aegies is his username. He is an art student. We've been together for 6 months now, so it's not quite new, but it's not really long term yet, although it's on it's way there.
2. Do you have a typical style of clothes you like to wear? A uniform, if you will?
I was once dubbed "Business Goth" by a friend and I loved it so much I actually call myself that. By this I mean, I wear suit jackets/velvet blazers, ties and slacks. All the time. I own something like 15 ties. And a nice pair of black creepers goes with everything.
3. What do you do for a living?
Currently, I am a waitress at a chinese resturant. In march I will starting Cosmetology school, where I will either specialize in hair color, or makeup. I haven't decided yet.
I hope you're doing well. ^__^ I was sorry to hear about your car. I had one really bad accident a month after I got my driver's license and I'll never forget it.
