April 2006

Drunk at Evolution – Saturday, April 1, 2006 – 9:09am
Yes, I realize how ironic this is considering Thursday’s entry.

Liv & I tried a new thing last night: to break her pattern of getting horribly drunk & subsequently embarassing herself, we paced her drinking to match mine. This worked fairly well: when Liv left the taxi she was practically sober and had danced for most of the night.

However, I made a new friend who bought me a shot and a drink even though I didn’t want to drink anymore. And that ruined me.

Here is the text message conversation Q and I had at 1:30am this morning:

HEATHER: A Lesbian Got Me drunk damn her
QUINN: Oh no monkey! Evil lesbians!
HEATHER: I Feel Sick goddamn lesbian
QUINN: Do you need a ride?
HEATHER: No Im Sure Your Drunker I Lowe You
QUINN: I lowe you too

Holy Jesus Lordy I’m In Love – Sunday, April 2, 2006 – 10:22 pm
I just spent two hours with the sexiest, most amazing man on the planet. He’s hot and smart and SO funny (“caca-phony”) and he wore this crazy neon green tie and a derby hat.

I am in love.

With Hawksley Workman.

Along with thousands of other fans, all around the planet.

Best night of my life ever. (Except for every Ani DiFranco concert I’ve ever been to.)

In Other News
Not much else to report . . . ate some breakfast, drank some chai tea, went for a little walk, clipped the bunnies’ nails . . . I think that’s it . . .

Reevaluating This Whole “Lack of Privacy” Thing – Monday, April 3/06 – 7:57 pm
My reasons for potentially ending this website include:

  1. It was a 2005 New Years Resolution, and I did it, and now it’s done. Time to move on to 2006 goals: get another play on stage, develop a new portfolio for UBC, etc.
  2. It’s getting a little creepy that strangers (and friends & family) know way too many details about my life.
  3. Having this site has undoubtedly affected my relationships in a whole bunch of ways: my family’s had an easier time staying connected to my life; I’m a little more connected to my various groups of friends & acquaintances; but I’m not at all happy with how it’s affected my relationships with the men I’ve dated. And if, hypothetically speaking, I should ever happen to meet a man that I really really want to keep around, I’d rather not risk having this site to compromise that.

So I just gotta figure out how to keep myself writing daily, and be a little more attentive to calling my family on a regular basis, and I think this will all work out just fine.

Also, I have the domain name & space for another year or so — I might as well keep my scripts online, to keep me motivated to finishing them and developing more.

It’s Raining
But I have a full bottle of pinot gris (Dunavar, product of Hungary, since all of Victoria is sold out of Calona — recommended by the liquor store guy) and there’s a great selection of craptv shows on tonight, and our New People Happy Hour is Friday, and I napped with Celeste today, and Evy & Hollis are visiting over Easter, while I get my wisdom teeth yanked and celebrate my 26th birthday with steak & the people I love most in Victoria, and I had the best date of my life followed by the best night of my life, and I love my job, and the rabbits are happy with trimmed nails and clean litter boxes. So that’s all good.

(The End)

[2017 Update: Brock and I fell in love the week I ended my blog. We moved in together, and in the spring of 2007 decided to leave Victoria to start an organic vegetable farm in the Cowichan Valley. To continue our story, check out Dinks on the Farm …]
