you’ll see just who you’ve been
my blog is getting mad traffic today over that natalie portman post i did you see, take a little time out of your day for something stupid and it will pay off, well, most of the time. who should i do next?
had a late dinner after ANTM (stacy ann is finally gone, every time she opens her mouth my skin crawls) at the victory last nite, sat at the bar, they were playing nice sitar indian tunes it was nice, i had the soup (fresh that day, carrot ginger) and caesar salad, fil had a burger, and whatever was on the cask, you could tell him it was rain water soaked through garbage from the back parking lot and as long as it was on the cask, he’d drink it. what’s with geezers and their gross beers? blech.
i always feel just a little bit weepy when i see pictures of churchill, reminds me of my grandpa.
we’re going to the el mo (cringe) tonite for brad’s band the evelyn room, you should come with, they go on around 10.30

Dearest Aunt Raymi,
My boyfriend and I have been together for 1.5 years. We are very happy together, despite the occasional fight about delicious confections. However, China is about to fuck everything up. Michael does ceramics, and it seems as though China is presenting the best opportunity for him to further his education and gain experience so he can achieve the ceramics fame that he has always dreamed of. This fantastic opportunity clearly breaks my heart a little. He feels as though the simple solution is for me to pack up and move to Jingdeshen. I work a 9-5 office job to which I’m not at all attached. I like to write, and I figure I can do that anywhere, so I’m not leaving behind any of dreams to help chase his. I would hate to leave Kristina. If he were moving to some amazing European country, this would not be a question. I just don’t know how I feel about China. So, what do I do?
Yours,
Melissa
dearest melissa,
well first off, long distance relationships for me are out of the question, i’ve cheated on every dude, well i think there was only one, and he sure as hell cheated on me too. you should read my friend liane‘s blog, she lives in shanghai, has for a long time and has a successful long distance relationship somehow
so basically you have to follow him there, like scarlett johansson in lost in translation, except china not japan
your number one thing is money, you need it, you need to have a job, because every single fight you have will be centered around it if you don’t have it, combined with a new environment and minimal friends to bounce frustrations off of, that is an explosive combo and your relationship will suffer for it. as long as you both have money, then you’re cool, all the other things you guys normally bicker about will still be present.
if you are viewing this as a temporary thing to do or are at the stage where you need to find yourself, do you think china is the right place for it? i mean, it’s a natural thing to assume that a big move will fix whatever we don’t like about our current situation. but if it’s love and you really aren’t giving anything up dream-wise, then why not eh? you can always come home, the downfall is there’s a possibility of coming home alone. give it a try, if it fails, you can say to your boyfriend you tried his thing now it’s his turn to try your thing, if you plan to stick together come what may, and really, how long does it take to learn ceramics anyway?
love aunt raymi

BARF! For Mr Deaves the sexual relationship was “absolutely fantastic”. yeah, thanks for the mental picture. well at least they have senses of humour, i mean, you’d have to, by naming your incest spawn a name that rhymes with incest. guys shh be quiet here comes incest celeste!
ps. i found your mom’s blog.
Oooh, if you take those blue panty shots into photoshop, do the magic wand to select just the blue part and click Auto-Levels (Makes see-through clothing mostly disappear) you get a better view of Raymi’s Bush. I highly recommend it.

email me (raymitheminx@gmail.com) questions or leave them in my comments, lets start an advice column the good old fashioned raymi style. be prepared to NOT be coddled, possibly torn to shreds, but most importantly, your life’s ailments sorted by your dear aunt raymi.
it’s true, i’m an aunt, it’s legitimate.
you can be anonymous too if you want.
i’m also happy to report that my big hairy bush makes it into my dreams!
As you know, I’m getting married next month. They say it’s bad luck for the groom to see the bride in her wedding dress before the big day. But what about seeing the groom in his suit? I bought a new suit for the occasion and Deborah wants me to try it on for her. What will happen if I do?
Jamie
um, nothing? if you were playing dress up and trying on your outfits at the same time you could close your eyes so you don’t see her dress, but that likely won’t happen. there is no superstition in place for dudes and weddings, i don’t think, i think you’re good.
