i just downloaded pics from my camera, of which i have not done since last week. time capsule treasure trove indeed. so many to go through. this is what i miss about what i used to most obsessively do, mass photo dumps. because the screen of my camera is shattered i take pictures and forget what i have. somewhat freeing actually and then when i finally get around to self-indulgent me blog time, well, i like it.

what makes a good blogger? when you can tell someone is really into what they do, enjoys it wholeheartedly, married to it. girls who enjoy sucking wang are really good at it comparatively to those who just go through the motions of it because they, love sucking wang. so i blog like i am giving head. one bold statement after another is how she goes.

two nights ago at boehmer. suggested the place to my ex boyfriend, he wanted to impress, i know his style, invited me to drop in for a drink, i brought lucas, i know my ex is generous and enjoys to get lit with company. people ask me frequently where to eat in the city and this is when i get to decide who in toronto gets money, basically. how slimeball of me right. so powerful. i should be talking on a brick cell phone on rodeo drive with slicked back yuppie hair and speed grinding a toothpick right now.

my ex is forever indebted to me because he was kind of a scumbag to me when we were together. i’ve written about it before but past is past he knows how to act now, more or less. i’m going to write about our time dating when i lived in oakville at 21 with my dad on cedar grove blvd. i’m calling the book, or long/short story (probably a book) 6 MONTHS IN MANSIONS. maybe Six Months in Mansions. i dunno. as crazy and hectic/in crisis this period in my life was it was still pretty awesome and spectacular actually, in hindsight. i have so many stories.

A. (ex) had a girl with him we all fell in love with. at first i wanted to be a hater but i got over it. she’s young and rich and was doing the poor little rich girl thing and as much as i lipped her and phony boo-hoed for her she didn’t give a fuck. i’m like, twenty two? i would die to be twenty two again and have your non-existant problems. oh, you’ve peaked? are you serious? then she and mel went to the bathroom and my ex goes, are they, they’re crying. they’re crying? ahahaha nice. i love instant girl bonds and a nice ole drunk cry. mmmm mmmmm so glorious. on top of saying she was going edie i also compared her to rose from titanic. i sobbed and imitated kate winslet’s accent, “i was drowning.” hahah i am a hybrid of every jude law type-casted character, total piece of s—.

she was wearing this lipstick and she asked if it made her look like a crackhead. i lied and said no but that’s when she won me over. what an amazing thing to ask someone who is sitting across from you wearing bright gwen stefani red lipstick. she also kept saying “your white hair” to me which i found to be hugely complimentary at the time.

her trick was to mix these two, a pale pale pink and this more vibrant one. the end result was a pastel thick bubblegum barbie fade shade. an am i really here pink. this girl has the same name as my niece and after she spoke of her stress and miserableness i said, well, you’ve got great cleavage so don’t be sad. she had piles of jewels and chains resting (sitting!) on her tits. she was fabulous. firecracker. attention-seeking. wonderful. i laughed to A. haha someone has a type. he silently convulse laughed.

it’s nice that they have shoe stretchers there. is it for men who buy new expensive shoes to wear to dinner and then their feet get pinched and blisters and they say excuse me to their business clients and go stretch their hugo boss weird pointy alligator skin dress shoes? yes, i think this is exactly what happens. totally.

these turned out kinda fun though. we went to check out the competition to adventurehouse – next party is next friday MARCH 4 i’m going to personally email you wieners ok. there’s two weeks time to plan some kind of deviantly creative tie-in. mel and i were just discussing goldilocks and the three bears. guess which one i am. or maybe we can all be goldilocks? or maybe i have to grow the f— up.

which would be happening a quarter to never.

this, was a great moment in time. if i were to write a mother goose story about it the title would be called, the conservative gentle dainty ginger toronto hipster man cannot hack it. my god what a fake hero. he was appalled with a beard on the dance floor in a cavern trainwreck place to give’r and a hot nubile big titted girl is having the time of her life, now i know that mousey jackie o girl with you might have been the one you were impressing and you had to pretend to be offended on her behalf, but she didn’t ask you. i think it’s cooler to not be an aggro jealous face girl anymore. i used to be that girl. back when i had black hair that apparently i looked amazing in but no one told me at the time so sorry. when i have a valley of the dolls nicole kidman stepford wife long platinum foxy mane i think you will let that shit rest. i looked better then cos i was two years younger then. everyone looks better two years younger. A. said i looked like a young 24. strong words bro.

anyway she wasn’t aware of this subtle play, mel sort of was. i grabbed haily and squeezed her arms put my face into her neck, you are amazing, i said. she goes what? so i scream you are amazing, just in case she had any inkling of self-doubt or a complex from this beardguy. short story, a mentor of mine big ups this one employee of his and gets a few other high-ups doing the same, now i can’t for the life of me understand what the f–k is special about this guy, i actually find him loathsome and i despise him a bit and my mentor says, cos he’s our star, we have to. you have to bring people up is how i interpret this and now i see why. i will never be twenty two again but if i was i would have appreciated someone giving me game credits on the dance floor.

so i can’t be you but i can live vicariously and help make you a better you. i can’t be you but i can enjoy you. ok that’s getting too cosmic now.
