The Geraldine Fibbers |
] |
...then I'll glue them back together in a stupid rhyme.
Y'all, the Geraldine Fibbers are fucking amazing. "Dragon Lady" is the kind of perfect that makes me wanna cry and scream and laugh and jump on my bed and tear up old photographs.
I got the most incredible haircut today. So incredible that I needed to write about it. Casey and I got together and had a fantastic breakfast at Gravy, which I'd never been to. Then, we went to Collage and I bought a few embroidery patterns because I need new projects and I think embroidering a bunch of cool shit sounds about perfect. I want to embroider every article of clothing I own. And yr's too <3 Ok, but the hair. The hair! We cruised a few shops that were veto'd for various reasons, but the Bishops on 28th was the motherfucking pot of gold at the end of the gay ass rainbow. Everything was right when we walked in. All of the stylists had fabulous hair and were performing mega fabulosity on all of the clients and there were good hair magazines in the waiting area and I drank beer and this amazingly gorgeous girl was totally checking me out The Whole Time and it was weird because she was the kind of gorgeous that makes you feel like she couldn't possibly be checking you out, especially when yr hair's a pre-cut mess and yr looking kinda frumpy. But she was! And as we were leaving Casey was like, "did you see that hot girl checking you out?" Hot. Anyway, my hair is long in the back and sort of falls into a point, hella shaggy all over and I touched it up this morning so it's super bright. Think Rod Stewart circa the 70s with thick, long, rounded bangs and slightly more mullet-y. Let me just tell you that there was A LOT of red hair on the floor and it felt good. I find that post-break up haircuts are always the best haircuts.
I look so hot I want to ask myself out on a date. I will totally put out, too.
New hair, new crafts, new times. This is self-care.
(and yes, my heart feels a little funny. Not sad, not happy. Maybe a little angry and also maybe a little relieved. Yeah, funny.)

| Even now in the final hour of my life I'm falling in love again. |
[10 Jun 2008|10:10am] |
My life has just been so out of focus. I can hardly concentrate on anything. Endless phone calls, texts, online messages, etc. go unanswered. The mess in my room continues to mount (and mount and mount and mount...). I have scores of projects started, with very little progress to keep me interested.
I'm in a funk, but I don't feel unhappy. Ok, sometimes I do, but I have so many reminders every day that I am loved and that I love and really, that's all I really want and need right now. I'm learning how to take it easy and that sounds silly, but it's actually really hard for me. I'm usually immersed in a dozen things at any given time and right now? Right now, I've got nothing.
It's the same old song and dance, but my job really makes it hard to see people and maintain a routine of social interaction. I've been getting better at feeling less guilty about this, but then there are certain people who despite how long they've known me, never cut me any slack for it. It's always about them and not about the fact that I often only have 2 evenings off a week and a lot of people who want a piece of that time---though, that very thought is quite lovely and I want to hold onto it and appreciate it. I'm often not returning calls and stuff out of guilt and I really just need to get over it. (Saying all of this makes me think of D. I can only imagine the stress she feels these days.)
But my life is kind of gorgeous these days, regardless. Don't let my melancholy fool you.

[12 May 2008|11:51pm] |
Love is making a fool of me tonight, y'all!
I keep saying how all I want are casual dates with lots of people at the same time, but like, no real relationships. I've got shit to work out and I need to remember how to be alone, but I still want cute dates and lots of fucking and I think that's ok.
But right now? Right now, I wish I was laying in bed with that scrappy little hipster boyish dyke of my dreams (do you exist?) and reveling in ecstatic love.
I haven't been in ecstatic love with anyone since my first boyfriend. We were TEENAGERS.
I don't want to be cynical and hopeless. I want to believe that I can love like that again. Love without fear, but also without identity-consuming codependency. Is it even possible?
I wanna be romanced. I wanna be inspired by the girl I'm in love with. I want a girl to want to read my zines. Make me mix tapes. Hold my hand (tightly). Write me silly notes. Make me presents. Teach me to play guitar. Sing with me. Dance with me everywhere. Fuck me in public. Fuck me so hard I cry. I want to do all of these things for her, too.
I want a girl who will go out on a limb for me. It's been fucking years since I've dated anyone who will go out on a fucking limb for me, but I've dated plenty of people who aren't afraid to ask, "but what's in it for me?"
And then there was P. She would've done any of these things for me and I walked all over her. I was so fucked up. I made my amends and I've stopped being sorry, but if I met another girl like this, would I know how to accept her love?
I'm afraid that I don't know how to BE loved.
(This is all really embarrassing. I'll probably delete it.)

| I feel like I'm disappearing; getting smaller everyday. |
[12 Apr 2008|08:30pm] |
I'm sad today.
No reason, really. Actually, if anything, I have at least a dozen reasons to feel great.
But I don't.
I'm going out tonight. I don't want to.
I'm thinking about trust a lot. About how even though I'm lucky enough to have a handful of amazing people to whom I could call right this second and say the words, "I'm sad today," I just can't. I have this lifelong fear of being a burden on others. I can't even tell my own girlfriend.
Oh yeah, I have a girlfriend now. She's beautiful.
I'm going out tonight. I will shower and do my hair and put on make-up. I might alter a dress to wear. Something slutty. I will drink a strong beer and tell myself that going out is exactly what I need. I will think about calling my girlfriend and decide not to because we hardly go a few hours without talking and it's getting ridiculous, but it's sweet. Really sweet. I'll dance with some of my best friends and convince myself that I am having a good time (ok, and I probably will be having a good time but I'm running low on optimism at the moment). I will come home and sleep in my bed alone for the third night in a row because Girlfriend is out of town.
But tomorrow?
Tomorrow, I will wake up early and clean my room and finally let my new gold hot pants see the light of day. I will go to homorobics with a gaggle of hot babes. I will hang out with one of my best friends. I will attempt to clean my car. I will get dressed up for Cat Power and drink whiskey and get emotional with a lovely lady who might just love Cat Power as much as I do. And I'll end the night in the bed of the girl who explodes my heart and my cunt like no other.
(Ok. I'm feeling better now.)

| Sing me to sleep and then leave me alone. |
[28 Mar 2008|01:15am] |
I am fucking exhausted, but I really can't go to bed until I word vomit the following:
1) PMS is a fickle, cum-guzzling, labia-wrangling, ass-spelunking, son of a bitch. When my phone rang tonight and my heart didn't go into panic mode, I realized I'd been basically having mega anxiety and some panic attacks for the last 3 days. I'm probably going to start my period tomorrow and while that definitely isn't the hottest thing ever, I'm fucking relieved that I can go about the next few weeks not feeling like an ugly fuck with debilitatingly bad self-esteem.
2) Daniel Johnston has been in a constant loop in my head. I find myself analyzing the progression of his mental illness(es) and thinking about the effects of medication in relation to weight gain and whether or not he's a virgin. I would really love to go to that show on the 18th.
3) Dating is also a fickle s.o.b., but not of the cum-guzzling, labia-wrangling, ass-spelunking variety (well, except it is literally). Grr, especially when you start to actually kinda really give a fuck about what the other person thinks of you. It's really annoying that I often feel more insecure around her now than I did weeks ago simply because now it's in that "shit, I really like her are we in a relationship?" phase of things. Ack, so not going there right now.
4) Today was kind of a landmark for yr's truly: I have lived in this apartment longer than any other place I've lived in with the exception of the houses I grew up in. Crazy! Today marked 1 1/2 years and 1 day and I have no intentions of moving anytime soon and I'm stoked! I've lived in Portland for 4 1/2 years and this is my 5th place, so this feels really fucking good and it's definitely worth noting.
That said, I definitely need more cute gaybors so I just wanted to put it out there that my super rad building has like 3 apartments available. I'm pretty sure it's 2 2-bdrms and 1 town house. The building is called the Philadelphia House and it's on Burnside at 50th. The apartments are $700 a month, the security deposit is small and my landlord, Bob, rules it so hard. It's worth filling out an application if only to see how amazing his apartment is. There's also a pool! and you can have a cat! and be mine and Jack's gaybors!
Look into it! (503) 233-9653
<3, Jenny
