Q: What looks like a giant thumb with glasses?
A: Aaron after he shaved his head!I must say that I was disappointed that Aaron shaved his head. I liked his haircut before. It looked especially good green. I never suggested to Dirk that he get his hair cut similarly, because I didn't want him to think I was lusting after his twin brother.
I'm not, okay? That's sick.
There are rumours/hints that Krisco tried to set her sights on Aaron as a substitue for his brother. Sonia was ready to call the police if anything did occur. I don't think anything came of it, but I am willing to believe that the little freak considered it.
Dirk wants to go to King's Dominion on Sunday, just him and I. I really want to go; as I haven't been there in several years. I've always been so busy...the Reduced Shakespeare Theatre is back in town, and I'm considering getting tickets to that show. Dirk was quite put out that he wasn't invited when we went for Katie's birthday, several years back. He understands why he wasn't invited, but he desperately wanted to see it.
I am alone in the office right now. The other 17 or so people are at training. Lang, the office's secretary, has not come in yet. The building I am in is very quiet, and there aren't any visitors (all the restrooms are locked; one must have a key to use them). Even the sounds of construction are muted, distant. The phones haven't rung once.
I think we're meant to be going somewhere in the Shandendoah Valley tomorrow night. Something about a music college that Jason wants to look over. I didn't want to go, but Dirk pouted, and I knew I was being unreasonable. I just didn't want to go because Jason is going to be a loser for the rest of his life and that depresses me. He has no common sense. None whatsoever. His solution to all of life's problems is to either A) declare bankruptcy, or B) sue. That boy is entirely too fond of his lawyer.
And he's declaring bankruptcy because his Camaro was leased, he drove it into the ground (well, it wasn't in very good shape, anyway. His brother's girlfriend had "borrowed" it and taken it out on a drunk driving spree...the car had a large dent on its front end from colliding with a mail box). And he just gave it back to them in shitty shape, as if they wouldn't say anything. They demanded recompense (they make you sign some kind of contract when you lease a car), and his response was to declare bankruptcy.
I don't want to know people like this. He's an idiot. I've known some prime idiots in my time, and there's only one person who could top Jason.
But I promised not to attack him or his (ahem) fiancee here anymore.
I'm going to update the Cast page, eventually. It's gotten sadly out-of-date.
"Excuse me, can I talk to you for a minute?"
"About what?"
"Um, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Yeah, sorry."Okay, to be honest with you guys, I hadn't sent the letter to C--. I meant to, honestly, but I felt so damn bad actually putting into writing the ending of our friendship. I mean, I usually leave myself a WIDE back door out of any commitment like that. The only back door out of this one is if he is touched and e-mails me, puzzled that I would forsake him.
The old C— would have done that. I don't know him now, and I certainly cannot gauge what his reaction would be.....which is reason enough not to push for his friendship any longer.
I put the letter in the mail today, complete with two stamps so that I'd be sure it had enough postage. It was written in white ink on red index cards, for effect. I included a picture of my backyard with snow falling, in black-and-white.
I don't know why I included the picture. I've gotten to the stage where I'm angry at C--, for dicking off without warning. There was no warning whatsoever, honestly. Granted, a couple weeks had gone by since the last e-mail, but that's not unusual. In fact, that's his usual method. And then, whoops, suddenly he's not going to answer my e-mail. And I know he's online. (How, you may ask? Let's just say I know the message boards he frequents.)
I need to go somewhere, get out of here.....anywhere, really.
I'd like to be at King's Dominion now, in fact.
