massive hyperventalation-inducing freak-out of doooom!!

OMG!! ok, so I'm posting a link to a facebook picture of stupid mike and his stupid new girlfriend, the one who is a diluted version of me in many creepy respects...she's wearing some dress she made, it looks pretty well put together, good for her, except that raging who-ore has seemingly made it out of THE SAME F-ING MATERIAL as the dress I spent the last 3 months putting together, and to make matters WORSE, there's been rumblings that Mike is bringing her to the Casa Loma ren. faire...That means we could end up wearing dresses made of the SAME FABRIC!!! This shall not do! ARGGHH, Wench, saucy, damn, hobby-copying troglodyte!! I can't believe this is even an issue!!! I know he saw my dress because he left comments on the pictures that I posted forever ago! What do I do? Is it in fact the same fabric??

Worst day ever.

here's my dress to compare.

on second thought

Ok, so I officially retract the majority of last post, although after talking to some girls at circus, a lot of guys really do expect you to put out or get out on date #3, which is ridiculous. Anywhoo, Grant had the best excuse ever for not calling until yesterday, being on a mountain in Kentucky makes cell reception a bi-otch. So we're still doing the awkward pseudo-dating thing which I'm happy about.

But the majority of guys, in my experience and in others', still blow...

ARRRGGGHH

Why are boys so dumb? I like to think that I'm a pretty groovy gal, relatively low maintenance, all I ask is the occasional dinner out and some time to myself every so often and it's all good. I really didn't think the myth of the dreaded "third-date" still existed, ay know, where you're expected to put out solely because you happened to like a person enough to see them three times...I'm sorry, but if I don't even know your middle name, there's no way I'm hopping in the sack. Nuf said.

So yeah, now, after some really fun nights out climbing and movie-seeing and whatnot, this guy hasn't called or communicated in any way and it's been almost a week. I'm genuinely saddened that this person, who seemed cool and down to earth is willing to never see me again because I wouldn't risk a close encounter with syphilis or something just so he could get his rocks off. ARRGHH indeed. Where are the decent guys? The ones who realize it takes more than a grand total of 15 hours spent with a person while clothed to equal 1 hour with clothes off? I feel like I'm constantly stuck at that damn school up at Downsview with no one around but other female performers or students I couldn't date if I wanted to, for fear of losing my job. I've tried the internet scene to no avail...This is truly annoying. If I can't get a date, me, a fucking aerial CONTORTIONIST; well educated, decent looking, willing to dress up like a total whore if the occasion calls for it (read: Mer's par-tay), then who the hell can find someone to spend time with.

Sigh.

Gigs!!!

Whatsup my faithful followers, thought it was about time for an update, although with stupid school keeping me down not much of note has happened recently...Still "seeing" Grant, it's in that awkward "are we dating, I don't know" phase, but things are good nonetheless. Suzy, it was crazy seeing you at Cafe crepe, we must catch up on morrow next..
Anywhoo, my big (ish) news is regarding an upcoming show in May..it's not my usual thing, I was contacted by a girl who used to perform with Sublime but left due to "difficulties." At this point, I understand how she felt. So, the gig is the T.O version of the popular world-wide fetish party/convention ominously called Torture Garden. I talked to some girls who performed there last year and they said it was all in good fun, just like a normal act/ambiance stuff but with weirder (read: less) clothing. The hair-falls are definatly going to make an appearance.
Should be fun. The former Sublime chick also has a sort of quasi-agency that she wants me to be a part of as a bookable act and she has carved out a nice little niche for herself in the "alternative" scene which has, up to now, been subject to some really sketchy circus. Think Sterling ren faire and you'll know what I mean. So hopefully they like seeing a legit aerialist along with the suspensions, peircings, rubber mouldings, shibari and other cookiness that seems to occur at this event.
Do NOT tell the 'rents.
