Hippy Hippy Shake
I'm a call girl. I work for a conglomerate with a fairly tight grasp on a certain market. [Vague, I know.] I collect money [or I'm supposed to] for them and, in return, they reward me with two minimum wage pay cheques a month, 10 sick days [six paid] per year and two weeks of paid vacation. I've recently made it to my third year anniversary and feel like the consumerist beast has chewed away on another chunk of my soul. This must be how Prometheus felt.
Return to Sender Pt II
So, boys and girls, I did it. I send the email. [The less romantic cousin of the letter.] It was an edited version. I got my anger out Sunday and now I'm left with sadness. The most blanketing and smothering of emotions. Unlike anger which normally fizzles, sadness consumes. It's been a rough few days.
Despite Max's promises in Sunday's sparring match, the only BBMs I've received are prompted by me. One email. That's what I've gotten and it revealed no clues to how to fix out dilemma. I've heard if it's not broke, don't fix it... But what if it's broken and can't be fixed? The email revolved around Piano Man's life, [a boy she claimed annoyed her and she wanted nothing to do with but now apparently has feelings for] and another friend's pre-audition jitters but little of hers. She says [and has stated multiple times] she doesn't have a grasp on emotions. But she hows how they feel; has sympathy for them. I told her maybe it's just me she doesn't get. And maybe that hurts more than anything.
In other non-Max related news, I finally have a chance to floorwalk at work. So last week in April, I'll be watching the newbies and the rest of the fishbowl. I'm excited but scared. Maybe it's just the exhaustion speaking... Or the Strongbow. Yes, I'm drinking. Scooby doo [Birdie reborn] is on a blind date. She had to go out of Silent Hill to meet him and I, being the voice of caution, said I'd come with her. She dropped me off in a parking lot across the street [at my suggestion] and I walked over to Generic Chain Sports Bar.
I was going to order food but alcohol seemed like a much more appealing option. I'm a can and a half in and I forgot how good of a friend alcohol is. Bad thought! Bad! I promise this is my last one. Then again- A promise is just a lie in a making.

Return to Sender
Birdie told me that writing a letter helps... Because of a certain situation in my life, I tried it out. It didn't make me feel better. It didn't help me release any emotion. Instead, I'm in bed crying myself asleep [and not for the first time this week, month, year] and choking back my feelings. Apparently having friends is a good thing but I'm starting to see the merits of being a hermit.

On A Lighter Note...
Today is my little sister's 21 birthday. This was my birthday wish to her: Happy birthday to my favorite, little sister. I wish you health, wealth and happiness; I wish you clarity and wisdom. Hope you have an awesome day! Love you always xx
And I wish her all those things. Now that it's not morning and I have time to think, these are the other things I wish Bear [bc I know she'll be reading this]: The ability to love and be loved; to see herself as I see her brilliant loving and full of intelligence. For her to realize she is the amazing woman she is. It is people like Bear that give me hope for the future and help me keep faith in my fellow human beings. I have been so honored to watch her grow and flourish and privileged that she has allowed me into her life. Despite any thing that happened today, this is the most important thing I could possible say.
Signing off [technically again] blessed, The Call Girl xx

The Time Warp: A Four Day Retrospective
Oh time, you fickle mistress. We can never get enough of you, fleeting as you are. This weekend was paved in the gold of good intentions- After all, I had plans for keeping up my blog but alas, all those intentions lead me straight to Hell.
