yours in christ

my period came so i’m likeable again. melodie just got hers too. lucas you are FUCKED now.

i heard recently that one girl said to a guy who has come onto my radar to, “watch out” about me and that “i might put him on my blog” and that this girl “knows me” oh no no no no no silly silly girl. you do not know me. this happens so frequently. you READ my blog, you don’t know shit and way to build it up for this brother. is it scarier to be included on my blog or left in the dust? a footnote. irrelevant. so they anticipate and fear it and then it doesn’t happen. no blog kiss. sayonara.

another new recent one is no i do not read your blog spanning to could live without it and so on. perfect. one i do not care and two, people start fighting when the battle’s already over. you lost son. people makin’ slags on their way out, so uncouth. sometimes things just don’t work out. feeling the need to insult me pointlessly fine, you wanna go there? cos i got me some mad opinions on your ish too but i am a lady, i have manners. i don’t play like that. no, homie definitely does not.

i inhaled 2 dollars worth of 7-11 candy and two cream cheese jalapeno taquitos. i introduced the band at the silver dollar and casie (HAPPY BIIIRTHDAY!!) and i danced the floor and tore it all up. quite a spectacle. very punk rockabilly. wish more people could cut loose. glad i was hung cos i drank very little and capped the eve off with a tall glass of water at the beav and called her a night.

i am SO happy to be de-bloated now and what’s awesome is i do cardio sit-ups, torso twists and a ton of tricep extensions for three day’s straight out of desperation so by the time the bloat goes away which is now a nice chiseled torso is revealed replete with some deeper tan lines from the other day’s afternoon vitamin D delight. i think they call that shit tings be lookin’ up now whattagwan me friends.

Hey Raymi,

I don’t want to comment this, because its not meant to be a comment discussion – but I thought you should know that your writing of the shit you are going through as totally made me feel better/relief/normal (or less alone) about my own mess.

I am deep into a very similar situation myself – our relationship has spanned 9 yrs, we are not engaged, we have broken up before, and we own a house and many different kinds of debt. We actually have started to see a the rapist together, and within the first 10 minutes of our first meeting together, she flatly said ‘you two have outgrown each other’. I knew it all along but every time I think about hurting him and leaving him I feel sick and absolutely insane.

There is no point (in my mind) to continue seeing the rapist because I don’t think we have a future – but I continue to make appointments for myself thinking that she will be able to figure me out.

I go to sleep every night wishing that he would turn into some kind of horrible human being so that my family and friends would see my decision as ‘justified’ rather than just another mistake in an already shitty decade. How can I leave someone that hasn’t done anything wrong over the course of our relationship? – except for being entirely emotionally unavailable and cold, freezing cold.

I have not left him – i have nowhere to go, but I secretly pack a suitcase every weekend. Pathetic right?

Oh, I dont know if you are in Oakville or Burlington, or neither, but I am in Burlington – yay suburbs…

Also – this is not meant to come across as “hey, your shit should seem less shitty now because it is helping people with their own shit” Thats not it at all – Just thought you should know that I may or may not feel the same as you may or may not have felt and also you are mighty awesome.

Thanks for reading!

“except for being entirely emotionally unavailable and cold, freezing cold.”

that IS huge
thats the invisible abuse, whether intentional or not, it is NOT a way to exist
we are humans built for loving and touching, why not remove an arm too?

you dont have a kid so you can leave
just do it
you need to

yes im in burlington

one hour ago, today’s date:

Thank you for this. 6 months ago you gave me some solid advice and validated what I was feeling. I got out of a relationship I had been trying to leave for 5 years and because of this I am a stronger, happier person that absolutely loves life. I have a lot of support from my friends and family, but I also need to thank you for doing what you do because it has impacted my life in such a positive way. So….. THANKS! You are completely awesome, keep doing what you are doing!

liz

now it’s time for a cuddle hangover date byeeeeeee.

i do not have room in my life for this

you have no idea the amount of crazy what hits my inbox. what the fuuuuuck guy and this is the tame one from the pile of them coming in the last week. also, WHAT PART OF LEAVE ME ALONE DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?

Dear Lauren White

I visited a fortune teller, about ten years ago, he said that I was going to be a writer, and that I’d have to wait until I’m published before my family could find me.
It is absolutely true and no word of a lie. I understand that my affections are unwelcome. I cut off my resource of **** as an acceptible support of love. I’ve made a mess between us concerning all of these correspondences.

I wish for you to know that I want to forgive you for everything that you could ever do. And that I have the will to carry the voice that can give you your inspiration to live, laugh, and love. I don’t want to turn my heart into a hunk of stone because of all the failed relationships.

I’m starting a relationship with a girl named *******, and I need to distract myself from you. I understand my responsibility to my family and my health to avoid you until we’re both not fucked up. I’m taking a two year journalism course with the goal of a diploma, I’ve nearly finished my novel, and you are the only thing that has ever been on my mind since we met.

It is true lauren that all is fair in love and war, but if you take “war” away from that statement, all is really not fair with only love.

All you need is love, and I love you, truly

you are always welcome to contact me, and it would make me happier if you did,

with warmest regards and honorable intentions,

Matt

Giving up a life worth leading kills us all

had an interesting discussion today at lunch. was encouraged to drag out my personal shit here. the what am i willing to sacrifice for the integrity of this blog argument again? the behind the scenes stuff is the real good content, really. fine.

ok so get a load of this raymi tell all.

one, first thing. i am super lonely. i am a co-dependent person by nature well, i’m good alone for long periods of time until i’m not anymore. which would be now. so my heart is always constantly hunting. i have haircut blues and i’m premenstrual so i’m feeling uuuugly. yes it is annoying. yes i need an ass ton of attention. i felt super invisible sunday night at gayaoke (gay + karaoke) and rob told me not to be intolerant in the cab which shut me up and melodie was like yeah you were being intolerant. no i fucking wasn’t! a guy was so rude to us we let him know about it and left him sitting alone at his table. he felt awful about it so much so he paid rob $120 secretly to cover our booze and food. awesome you can be a prick to me anytime you want there guy.

i don’t exactly know how to talk about the extracurricular man activities i have going on for myself. there are always men of course. but i’m not intimate with them. all of them. whatever i’m “living my life” as a friend told me once about a mutual friend of ours who became single and was on a date-frenzy. thought that was positive.

so i’ve been a bit of a mess the past five weeks. i finally know what it feels like to be heartbroken. just desserts i suppose and now i am picky and kissing frogs here and there and just getting more and more bummed out about it.

i really want to get away for a bit. after our dance performance i’m going to take a bit of me time. spoke to dave yesterday and realised i really missed him. things got a little messy between us, we stopped talking. i may go visit him in pei. i want to go stay with the skids in toonder bay as well.

i went to watusi last nite with a diff guy which was funny for me personally and the waitress. she’s like you’re a regular here now. i’m like if this was the spoke club you’d be fired. men bring their mistresses and wives on separate nites. fact. you act like you’ve never seen them before when you serve them well you don’t mention the last time you saw them in case it fucks up a lie they told the wife. it was also funny that i was wearing the same outfit i wore there with britt. we got druuunk. then went to motel and chris (owner) and i invented a drink that is very much like a shirley temple. so i woke up today with a gratuitous sugar hangover. the drink’s components: triple sec chambord vodka gingerale soda very very good. when steph and i made shirley temple blacks we used grenadine. horrible horrible hangovers.

oh my god it is freezing i just turned my heater on come on hot little opium den warmth!

i am trying to decide what to wear tonite.

the omelet i had at poor john’s was a bit blah. we wanted to walk but the rain fucked that all up. felt a bit boring. mitzi’s was closed. i was really looking forward to our hanging out today but i think it has gone and made me more depressed. can’t tell. ultimately it was good though it’ll help me move on because it was just a normal ordinary hang out and our collective boringness took away some of your allure, thankfully.

every time i see my ex too i feel like shit afterward.

had a bunch of money saved and the weekend just took it all. nothing to show for it what the hell. still have to get dance shoes, anyone have a pair of dancing heels size 8 i can buy for super cheap otherwise i have to spend 150 on brand new capezios. our utilities here are so high it is brutal will have to dump a chunk of money down for that soon too.

hangover part two just showed up.

i have a tumblr thing i infrequently update.

my mother and i aren’t talking in time for mother’s day. i’ll send her some flowers.

today is poetry writin’ weather. so grey so gloomy so glum.

my hair looked so much better messy this morning than it does clean now.

i tried the french martini that watusi has just to appease the waitress. i always ask her what she reccommends and she says the same shit, french martini or mojito. i got the mojito and then sank on the french.

I always feel weird writing emails to people I have never met, especially on a personal level, but I guess you write letters daily to thousand of people you have never met so it won’t seem so strange. I think sometimes hearing from strangers can be nice too, because they have no obligation to tell you positive things, sometimes they just do. I think number one, on a totally aesthetic note, your hair looks beautiful, don’t have haircut blues! And you are never invisible I am sure, with your personality and looks I am sure you light up any room. On a more personal note, I am glad you sometimes open up and offer us a rare jewel of your vulnerability, it lets us know you aren’t invincible and that under your tough gal exterior there is someone just like us. I think you should not feel ashamed for feeling lonely, or feeling weird around your ex. That’s life. And your heartbreak isn’t karma, it was just someone who wasn’t right for you. I’m sure if you keep kissing toads you will find your prince. And DO keep kissing toads, you’re young, it’s fun!

Anyways, enough yammering.

Thanks for always giving me something to ponder and something fun to read, and I hope my words were not more of that unnecessary advice you seem to get alot of!

PS: If getting away is what you crave, PEI is definately the place (especially in the summer), it’s good for the soul!

SO TIRED.

good to know there’s some insane clown posse fans out there.

bent over and ripped a hole in the ass crack of my jeans that aren’t even mine. the booze pantry at work’s lock latch sticks out and clean cut a nick like butter right through my denim behind. awesome!

my hair is so soft you’d cry if you touched it you’d feel the warmth of a million sentimental hugs. the buzz after a good sneeze. other gay things. i am so bloated right now i look like a beach ball with arms and legs. pregnant fight club brad pitt (carly loves that one). i’m drinking some soothing tea. our house is almost in order i feel a bit of a heel for not being able to tidy up as much. don’t work til friday so tomorrow is total chill catch up day it better not rain. i have so much to do i don’t know where to begin. maybe i should just get my period and shut up.
