I love my girlfriend, I really do. She's brazen, fearless, honest, and tough as nails. But sometimes she really does baffle the hell out of me. When I told her about my grandmother dying one of the first things that popped into her head was the fact that she didn't have a proper dress. I said she owned plenty of black dresses that would be appropriate, she looked at me in bemusement then replied, "No I don't. What I own are little black dresses meant for cocktails and seduction not funerals. "
Needless to say when she returned later that night with a black dress I had to say with a smirk, "Did you buy your little black funeral dress?" I got whapped with a pillow for said remark.
I had to attend one of my probate classes when the wake was held but Suzanna went in my place. One of the strange reasons I feel I'm going to be with her for the long haul is the fact that I never did strange ass girly things in my previous relationships that I now do with her. Things like covertly stealing clothing items of hers because they smell like her and if I have it with me it's like she's always there.
My god. That is SO.FUCKING.GIRLY. It's official. I loathe myself. But I do that now. Not with her dresses and skirts, of course because just... no. I love her coats though. They're long, black, sexy, and very warm which is nice considering it's colddddd here. Sometimes I forget to take things out her coats when I borrow them and I did that with the coat she work to the wake. I left my cell phone in there and during the several long hours Suzanna attended she made quite a bit of mischief with it in her possession.
How you ask? Oh, by somehow renaming and mixing up all of the stored numbers and who they belonged to. Including speed dial. Van is listed as Pat, I think Pat is listed as Jake in NYC, and my mother is listed as my friend Veronica who now lives in Paris and calls me on and off every month or so. This caused quite a bit of chaos today when Van called me and I thought it was Pat and the call got disconnected before Van could tell me otherwise. So I dial in Pat's number from the phonebook and I end up with Jake in NYC which confused the fuck out of me so then I speed dial Pat at 17# and that ends up dialing my cardiologist who naturally panicked and assumed I'd finally killed myself with a premature heart attack by skipping my meds.
Chaos, I say! Chaos! Chaos that's well deserving of a spanking but as she's bitchier, taller, and a far more scrappy fighter than I am so I couldn't go that route. I'm still at a loss for how exactly to punish her but oh... no worries. I shall find a way.
Right now Pat and I are discussing plans for attending an Anime convention in New Jersey called Onna! which is a nifty fusion of Yuricon and Shoujocon. I think it's pretty much set we're going to be there. I told Pat if he doesn't come I have no real reason to attend but upon consideration even if he doesn't go I'll probably still attend. I just won't have as much fun. I see no reason not to go, especially as Erica is going to be there. I won't be paying for the airline tickets thanks to my girlfriend and my DM at Lids has already approved using my paid vacation time to take off October 7-11.
I called Erica who's one of the Convention Chairs to tell her we planned on attending and she suggested I sign on to work at the convention like Pat will probably be doing. Though they both assured me it's not really hard work or any kind of work compared to what I'm used to doing I'm reluctant to sign on as staff. Maybe because I know how damn lazy and lethargic I can be and I don't foresee those qualities as being useful in a staff member.
We'll see how that goes. Now onto the heartbreaking news for the day... Eden Riegel who plays Bianca Montgomery, the lesbian daughter of Erica Kane, on the show All My Children will be exiting on February 24th. By that time she should be in the middle of a new romance with her sexually confused I'm straight, no I'm gay, best friend Maggie. Since Elizabeth Hendrickson, who plays Maggie, has a contract that's about to expire any day now it would make sense if AMC made them a couple and had them leave town with Bianca's infant daughter Miranda. I knew, like most AMC fans, that Eden would be leaving eventually because she resigned her studies at Harvard to work on AMC and then there's the obvious fact that she's one of the most talented young actresses on Daytime Television. I really do know that but somehow it still stings that she's actually leaving the show.
And yes, I know it's supremely fucked up that I'm more upset over an actress leaving a Soap Opera than the fact I attended my grandmother's funeral today. Ah well. My family life and the personality resulting from it is perverse to say the least.

Damn. I was so looking forward to seeing Jonathan get what he deserved . . . in October.
Well, since I always liked Riegel and Hendrickson, then I wish them the best if they should both be leaving. Get the hell away from that turkey of a soap, find success elsewhere, and vaya con Dios. (And meanwhile, get Miranda away from "Toxic Grandma".)
Eee, an Alice/Dana icon! :) I've been slowly making my way through Season One of L-Word for the past month. I love Dana. Although I thought her relationship with the souz-chef was really cute in a geeky, Willow/Tara-ish kind of way.
What part of New Jersey is your con in?
Sincerely, Allaine
