Btw, fgti--or anyone!--who wants to talk to me about Canadian lit, we can arrange something off thread/board (hard as it may be to believe, I suppose it is possible that there are gays here who don't give a shit about Canadian literature). Talking about it with others can only help me in my studies. At the very least, i'd love to hear what some of your faves are.

Oh shiiiii yes I have lots of suggestions.
What else? oh! My bf and I finally had a conversation that ended in discussion and resolution instead of broken glasses and tears? After eight months of trying! We're so proud.

Also I know I've been posting only "FUCK" posts about this whole poly chain dickaround, for what, the past year and a half? But there was a nice moment a couple weeks ago when my bf and I were having sex and he tried doing some uncharacteristic sexytalk and asked me "tell me about what it's like to fuck ____" and the immediate thought that came into my head was "there's always a moment when we both drowse awake at the same time and the afternoon sun is crossing our naked bodies and we're still holding each other so tight and every breath is love love love on my neck and.." but I thought better and faked it and made up something about a delicious asshole

fgti - I just sent you a message via ILX email (does anyone ever check these things?).

hi gays!
I'm introducing Poison for a Christine Vachon festival running at one of the local art houses, so I'm writing a few paragraphs w/the help of a Tru martini.

Hello, lovers. For some reason I've found myself simultaneously reading 2 different novels by Samuel Delany & it's doing weird (fun) things to my brain.
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:42 (eight years ago) link
speaking of weird (fun) things to my brain:
Last March I went on a sexless date with this fellow.
Last week I learned he was my new doctor.
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:46 (eight years ago) link
Woah, cute!
― pitchforkian at best (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:49 (eight years ago) link
Too bad you have to stay three feet away.
Our date was three weeks after the quarantine was lifted!
Either he legit didn't recognize me when he probed my abdomen or he sports the best poker face I've ever seen.
He looks way too much like Jon Meacham for my taste.
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:53 (eight years ago) link
when he probed my abdomen
the exam came second, right?
(This reminds me of a gag in a late John Ford film when a hoe falls down and her petticoat flies up and James Stewart is all "Oh, I know her")
― we can be heroes just for about 3.6 seconds (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 21:58 (eight years ago) link
he's cute imo but- wait, I'm confused- did he never acknowledge that you had been on a date ever? because that would be very weird if he had acted like you hadn't dated at all
― the tune was space, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 22:22 (eight years ago) link
He did say my weight and HDL and lipid tests were spectacular.
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 22:24 (eight years ago) link
Is it possible that acknowledging the date would amount to admitting an ethical breach? I'm not sure how all that works but I know when my BF worked in mental health he couldn't acknowledge that he knew any patient if he encountered them outside the clinical setting.
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 22:29 (eight years ago) link
yep -- that was my thought too
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 22:30 (eight years ago) link
Also OMG tune I just now got the FB invite to your show at the Columbus!!! I'm hollering.

Hi!!
My Valentines plans involve eating an unreasonable amount of cassoulet with my boyfriend and probably getting really gassy as a result. ROMANCE!!!
― gwyneth anger (patron sailor), Friday, 12 February 2016 22:15 (eight years ago) link
Anyway I am in a pretty good place this past month, I am on meds that are helping with my depression & ADHD symptoms, I'm back in therapy, I signed up for a foundation level drawing class at RISD, I'm working on a craft collaboration to incorporate my weaving with her jewelry design, my libido is WAY up, my relationship is strong, my dog is cute, and for the first time in forever I actually feel excited about plans & goals. I hope that my positivity doesnt come across as obnoxious but I just wanted to update with some good news.

that's so awesome. thanks for the update. nice to hear someone so holistically put together. i'm working on that :)

probably getting really gassy as a result
once on an out-of-town trip i had such bad gas that B woke up in the middle of the night and asked "...do you smell gas?" (as in, "is there a gas leak in our hotel room?")
glad to see some positivity/Making Things Happen itt - i've been feeling sort of excessively negative/grumpy about lots of things lately even tho things are mostly ok. this weird heat wave has lifted my spirits a bit, even though it prob shouldn't
we're going out of town next weekend for joint v-day/anniversary (the latter is the 26th but i'm going to be on the east coast) - we're staying here and i am very excited: http://www.madonnainn.com/
