Today is Friday. I am happy. But right now my brain hurts. I've taken 5 help desk calls in less than 2 hours. Three were fairly short and easy, one was fairly simple but long, and one was long and annoying and frustrating.
I'm trying to fill my weekend up so I won't feel too lonely or weird with whats-her-name gone. She called last night to say she made it safe and sound to Vermont, and she has training all weekend, so I might not get much of a chance to talk to her via phone. Anyway, my plans for tonight are laundry and possible cutting my friend's hair (I don't know if I'm as good as you Ridley -- maybe we should have a barber-off to determine which tranny is best with the clippers!). I think I'm also going to stop by this cool thrift store near my apt and do some shopping for clothes. Then I can wash any new purchases right away since I'm planning on doing laundry. I STILL haven't gotten my underwear order in the mail. Argh. I want my fresh socks and briefs and t-shirts!!
Speaking of ordering, I dropped $30 on porn yesterday, but I think I got a good deal -- I ordered this buy one get one free special of Nin Hartley How-To films (I love her!) So I basically get all 8 of ther how-to films for $19.95. Then they offered some other random free movies (4-in-1, probably illegal videos), so I added them onto my order. The rest was shipping costs. I figure even if the movies are bad and cheesy, it wasn't that big of an investment, and I can always give them as gag gifts to my friends. Or un-gag gifts, depending on the friend, I suppose.
I'm not feeling especially compelled to act on my sexual cravings by finding a "live" partner. Part of this is because my current pet interest is penetration, and like Joe was saying, it's definitely a huge issue of trust -- I know I couldn't do that type of fucking in a casual summer fling sense. So if I do any fooling around this summer, it will probably be unplanned and "light", so to speak. Or maybe none at all. I reserve the right to be a sexually active nonmonogamous abstinent. I guess part of me doesn't want to hook up with someone SOLELY because my primary partner is out of town for 2 months. In other words, if I hook up with someone as a consolation prize for not being able to fck my g.e., I'll just end up being disappointed and it'll be unfair to the fling-ee (not to be confused with me, the fling-er). So who knows how things will go, but for right now, I'm happy with just solo play and spending my social time catching up with friends.
Only 4 more minutes left of Help Desk and no one has called in the last 15. Yay! Off to lunch soon -- we're going to scope out the Urban Dream Suite, this weird performance art type thing in the window of the Sears store. Four Australian dudes living in a capsule. Sounds intriguing and boring at the same time. That's why I must go.
Other plans for the weekend include a day with Br__ and St__ on Saturday, and on Sunday a viewing of Tomb Raider. Salon.com has a review but it looked negative, so I'm skipping it -- I know it's just going to be fun and eye-candy.
