Now, I'm guilty of something I hope you never do

[raybear]

Strange as it may sound, I've been bonding well with Sophie in the past day or so. I think she's confused by my state of mind lately -- being home but feeling disconnected and not paying attention to her. She initially acted out a bit, between the sleeping far away and being randomly bark-y when I don't play with her toys the right way, but now she seems to be watching me more closely and following my lead. In the car, she's positively brilliant. Today she even communicated to me in a calm non-aggressive way that she really wanted to be left out so she could sleep in the chair and stay by the window all day, so I didn't crate her. Of course, all of this theorizing might get shot to hell when I go home and find something destroyed and the floor soiled, though (knock on wood) she's done nothing of the sort since I've returned from vacation.

I'm finding the desire to write more about my relationship with the dog, but I'll save that for another place.

I finally finally had dinner last night with herownsociety after many many promises of making it happen. I knew we would be true to our word, it's just hard when you're both busy people. I had a fabulous time, though I must confess a little while afterwards I felt a bit self-conscious and wondered if I was hypocritical when I rallied about people who talk in monologues since I can sometimes be a one-man show myself when I get excited. But hopefully she felt like we were dialoguing sufficiently.

At Nookie's we stopped by the table of freakysparks and KLV for a brief visit, and I commissioned Sparky to help me make money with my new computer by starting an online porn site that sells amateur DVDs I'll soon be able to burn. She suggested my website be called "Spraybear". Oh my. I was literally on the floor laughing.

At this time, I'd like to plug an event where I'll be tomorrow night. Stalk with care.

i'm sad i'm going to have to miss this event, but tomorrow is just slammed with graduation parties and rehearsals and blah, blah. i've known god-des from my madison, wi days. long ago. well, not that long. i left there in '98. anyway, she used to live downstairs from my first girlfriend and me. she was all of 19 and just starting college when i first met her. she'd always burst into my apartment belting out biggie or lil kim or whoever she was listening to. ahh, those were the days.

anyway, if you think of it and get the chance, please tell her hello and that i'm sorry i couldn't make it.

and i hope you have fun!
