Oh my gods...I'm back...

I'm sorry everyone. I took a three day MIA leave of absence, and when I get back all hell has broken loose! Gods, I have to get this all out, where do fucking start.


(Get some coffee or munchies, this is bound to be a long one.)


I went to see my friend Katya on Tuesday to go to the DIA. I drove down with Dorothy and we hooked up with Katya and her friend Loretta. We all pile in Katyas car and head down there. Little do we know that the DIA is closed for three months during the summer while they are under reconstructiondo they have this fact listed on their website? Umm.. No, they do not. We talk to some guy who is suppose to send us tickets to some future event and then bum around Detroit for a bit, then go on. We stop at this other place Katya knows of to look at some god awful paintings, then go back to her place where she and Dorothy and I decided to go swimming and tanning by the pool. While at the pool Katya asks me to stay at her place for a couple of days, claiming she will drive me back on Thursday. I decide to stay and Dorothy heads home for the day.

So Katya and I drive all over fucking Michigan trying to find a party at her friend Cathys house. After a bit we arrive and I am introduced to her clique of lesbian friends from all around lower MI. We drink a little, watch a dumb movie (Youve been served?) and play the board game Cranium (which I rocked at, thank you very much) and generally had a good time. Katya had to work the next day though, so she and I went home early and went to bed.

Next day I hung out in her apartment all day while she went to work. I read, played with her cat and dog, and showered and such. When she got home at 6 she told me Trevor had called me twice and that I should call him back, she only has a cel phone, no house phone. I call him, he asks me if its ok if we temporarily move his friend Erin into our house because she is having issues with money and roommates and needs a place I half suspect that when he asked me he already had half of her stuff over at the house but that is beside the point I agree on a few conditions that I had the right to kick her out if she didnt live up to, he agreed and I related the info to Katya and she agreed it was bizarre. Then we decided to go out. We first went to her friend Renees house and then went out to Comos in Detroit. It was ladies night, and its a gay bar. It was pack, wall to wall lesbians. A few I knew from various things I am involved with now, many I did not know.. Oh it was beautiful. I hung out with her and her friends, flirted a bunch, drank a little, actually got sick from the heat of the place (I swear I did not even have that much alcohol, although sweet raspberry vodka blah!!!), and ended up going out to eat at the end of the night with Katya before we retired again to bed.

Yesterday, I wake up with her, go for breakfast, and she drives me home to Lansing where she is going to hang out with me until later in the evening because she had the day off. We get here to find Trevor is gone and decide to go out to meet him at the coffee place he is hanging out with Aaron. While there we had some drink and then Katya decided she wanted a tattoo so we headed over to this tat parlour nearby, but she didnt find anything she wanted then we went to this other place, no luck. So we decided to paint instead, went to this art supply store I know to get her a canvaswas what she wantedwent home to find the hugest mess because of Erins stuff being thrown into the general mess that is our house. Well, we had to clean up first, no way around it, so I tackled the studio, and Katya tackled the kitchen I love Katya, she cleaned up all of the dishes, scrubbed out the sink, scrubbed off the nasty, greasy blinds (that I have been unable to get clean for the last 26 months I have lived here)and did it all wearing a cast off pair of black boxer briefs of Trevors that he has never worn. so cute Well, after we finished we painted for a while. She posed for me, people came over (Erin, Trevor, and her friend Karen) before I was done and distracted me from finishing off right because Katya had to put her clothes back on before they came in and I couldnt finish right. So, talked to them a bit, they left, Katya decided to try my yupo paper and painted an abstract on it, loving it the whole time. Trevor came home, exhausted, declaring he was going to have a quiet evening


.famous last wordswe seem to be incapable of having a quiet evening this summer.


So, we decide to go out for some dinner at Woodys Oasis in East Lansingmmm middle eastern food so we get there, Trevor has a beer he swears hes going to quit, gets one anyways. We have a lovely dinner in which I didnt drinkKatya is only 19, I didnt want to leave her out too much, but our friends Aaron and George showed up and they cracked a bottle of red wine, which I took a glass of before we left. Katya decided she wanted to paint more, so we went back to the house without Trevor and I posed for her for a while during the time she painted this terrific abstract portrait of me. During this time drama arises. Erin calls me looking for Trevor, I tell her hes with Aaron and give her his cel. A few minutes later Trevor calls, apparently Erin was supposed to get a ride for the evening to her friends house, wasnt even planning on crashing at our place, but her friend flaked out on her so she needed to be picked up on the north side, excuse me, she and Karen needed to e picked up, then Karen needed to be driven home to the South side I was annoyed, because I have the only car between Trevor and myself, and Trevor was too drunk at this point to go do it himself, Aaron didnt want to, and I had the only other car so it was up to me to unsettle myself and go get her this did not seem to bode well for this girl living with us I told him if I had to do this constantly she would not remain living with us longSo, I bitched a bit with Katya about it, received another phone call from Trevor saying it was taken care of, that he and Aaron were heading out there I asked him if he was sure, because they were all carousing so it was obvious none of them were in any condition to drive. He reassured me and hung up. Once again I vented to Katya who was quite sympathetic about the whole situation. After that she realized how late it was, had to drive an hour home, and left for the evening, swearing she was coming out on Saturday to attend Dorothys old town jazz fest party. So I called back Trevor to see if everything was ok. He said, New plan, were coming home, Aaron is too scared to drive to the south side. I roll my eyes, sit down, and wait patiently for them to arrive.

They come home and Trevor swears the drama wont always be this high with her. He says hell make it up to me, because Erin was afterwards heading out to her friend Sharons house for a late party and he was going to take me to meet all of Erins hot, lesbian and bisexual friends. Ok, I am placated. We roll out down Turner Street, miss Erin and Karen altogether because they are not, indeed, walking down the street like they claimed they would be but are, instead, sitting on the side of the road. We get a call a minute later, have to turn around to pick them up. My humour is very low, but I trudge on. We drive all the way the fuck down Cedar to drop off Karen, who is dubious if she even wants to go home, Im in little mood to deal with a mind change at that point and I think she sensed it. So she went home for the evening. Aaron and Trevor want to pick up more beer before we head up. We stop at QD, they go in, and I am chatting with Erin who thanks me profusely for letting her stay, coming out to pick her up, etc. etc. and says she would almost just like to chill out for the evening. Well, when she mentioned that to Aaron and Trevor it did not go over big, as they had just both procured six packs each for the evening. So she says, Let me go to Taco Bell then we can go Aaron has to work in the morning, with Trevor I might add, so he wants his car at my house, we have now, naturally, gone in the opposite direction of my house by the time he mentions this fact. I drop them off at taco bell, then at Sharon house, and Aaron and I head back to my house where I chat with him about the situation and he agrees it is bizarre and hopes, for mine and Trevors sake, that we are not getting fucked over. I hope that too. We get the car, drive back, park, and head up to the apartment where we buzz and no one hears, so were standing here like assholes holding a six pack on East Lansing sidewalk waiting for them Aaron tries to call Erins cel, after ten minutes finally gets her, Im am very ill humoured by this point. She finally picks up and runs down the stairs to let us in, I gave her a real nasty look, I know I did because she laughed uncomfortably and was like Damn, whats that look for? I say my patience is wearing very thin that evening and I need something to drink. She replies, Considering, you have been very patient so far I agree, storm up the stairs, and, to his enormous protest, steal one of Trevors beers. Hey, thats my beer, and youre supposed to stay sober tonight to drive us home! I just look at him like You owe me, mother fucker!!!, pop the beer on my forearm (a trick I learned the other night from Veronika at the cranium party, hee hee ) and swig it the forearm trick impressed everyoneha ha. He just was like Ok, dont get too fucked up though. So, we hang out for a while. They are all lovely people, not one of them over 21, might I add. Sharon had lovely green hair and pink wings on and her friend Sam is always cute, very fucking cute, and there was Erin (who is a lesbian but I am comletely not attracted to her), of course, was there along with her friend Timmy and Jonah. We all BSed and such, drank, and laughed. Jonah was making this collage so we talked a lot about that, Trevor asked me if I was ok about Erin moving in, I said he didnt give me much choice, he said she really needed the help, but he was unwilling to part with her personal details beyond saying it was worse than his situation, I left it at thatbecause he made the guilt kick in by saying she had never had anyone as kind as me to help her out man, he knows how to get me. So, were hanging out, and the party degenerates into a no pants party. Myself, Trevor, and Jonah did not partake, but we watched Sam strip down to her lovely thong, which she swore she was not wearing and tried to cover her lovely ass up and Sharon stripped down to pink with white polka dotted daisy dukes which was simply charming with the pink tank top and the pink wings, might I add. Aaron also got mostly naked, and I ended up seeing his penis, testacles, and ass throughout the course of the eveningewww but I acquired a new model Sharon is all eager to pose and may be coming over today to do sodoesnt even want money, just wants to do it. So thats all good.

The night wore on, first Sam found her pants and went home, then Jonah took off. Erin decided to crash there, so Aaron, Timmy, Sharon, Trevor, and I walked down to Beaners for coffee stuff Sharon was still wearing her wings, by the by. And jumping up on me whenever she got the chance So, we have coffee, chill out until light, and I end up talking books and stuff with Timmy and Sharon like crazy, which was wonderful. After a while, it was about 6:30, we decide to call it a night, and the party breaks up. We walk Sharon home, Timmy took off the other way, and I drop Aaron off and head home, where Trevor and I watch the last episode of the BBC series, Neverwhere and I go to bed I only slept for about 3 hours and woke up and started typing this, because its going to be a long day and I have lots of stuff to do that I fucked off on for the last three days.

I'm planning on having Sharon over later to pose, Timmy's coming to check out my books, most likely, then we are later going out to Magdelana's to see Aaron read his Mother poetry, good times...

So yeah, that was my exciting MIA three dayshow was yours like?
