(mostly bagging on UB)

Unless they were still up at 7:30 a.m. from the party
the previous night, that is fucking insane. Who gets
up at 7:30 to listen to hip hop and holler & carry on?
On a SUNDAY, no less! Freaks.
You should totally get your treadmill in there :)
The main reason I like Ana Caban's 'beginning matwork'
is that once you know how to do it, the whole routine
is about 20 min. It is a great workout & anybody who
can't find a piddly 20 minutes to exercise is really
in denial-land (UB!) But I totally see your point
about the early a.m. stuff. I haven't done my Rodney
Yee a.m. yoga in forever, and that's 15 minutes. I
would rather snooze. Bad, bad E. Also, as UB says (&
uses as an excuse not to exercise)--if you work out
first thing in the day it regulates your blood glucose
levels & metabolism better for the rest of the day. As
opposed to working out after work. Her philosophy is
since she can't do it in the a.m. when it would be
*most* effective, why do it at all? Poor thing. And of
course, she is one of those unhappy fat people who
thinks that all of her problems will be solved once
she's thin, and won't do anything or try anything fun
until she's 'thin enough' ...which ain't never gonna
happen.
I found another of her little 'personal myths' about
herself in a title of a Mercedes Lackey novel. I am
thinking I will get a lot clearer picture of her
self-image & the bizarre things she thinks about
herself if I read them. But I generally tend to avoid
drecky woman-written fantasy, since it's basically
"Conan meets Wuthering Heights". Bleh! And do I really
want a better idea of who she thinks she is? Other
than the fun of poking holes in all her
supposedly-true stories of her past & her childhood
that she seems to have stolen from Ms. Lackey's
imagination.
I am thinking about quitting my gym. I don't think I
go often enough for it to be worth my while. It's only
$30 a month, though. I dunno. They took away my 'life
fit' or 'life circuit' weight machines--they were
cool. but..they still have the best water area I've
seen of all the gyms in Austin. Bad thing is, I don't
use the sauna, hottub, steam rm. & pool that often. I
guess I should, in order to get my $ worth.
I suggested they either replace the 'life fit'
machines they got rid of with new ones, or put in
Dance Dance Revolution &/or Prop Cycle video games. I
think a 'geek gym' with DDR and Prop Cycle would be so
cool.. Not that I dance in public, mind, but it would
get a lot of younger folks into good exercise habits.
I went looking & found that ebay seems to have the
best prices on flash paper & flash cotton. You can
separate out the cotton into tiny strands, make an
elaborate pattern on your sub's body & light it :)
Flash paper would just be for theatrics, I think.
Also, alcohol in a spray bottle to make fireballs.
woo! I am so...awful. Fire play doesn't excite me
except in thinking how I could do such a better job of
theatrics than [J], the guy who 'burned' me. How
wrong is that??

I figure they were partying all night somewhere else and then decided
to go hang at my neighbor's. A very bad choice.
It was the vapid bimbo arpeggio (ha ha ha hahahaha haaaaaaaaaw) that
really got me.
I am gonna try doing pilates in the mornings.
UB is pathetic. She is the best example I know of "what not to do"
in the world of diet, exercise, and taking care of oneself.
I thought about joining a gym.... but I hate the gym atmosphere (says
Georgette: join a women-only gym! Uh, no. It's the gym women that I
can't stand - not the guys) and probably wouldn't go enough to make
it worth my while.
I think you're fire ideas are cool.

Went out to the HFS park today. No sineater. Just UB and
malamorf. I didn't take pictures. UB showed me her new
black spandex sports bra ("as seen on Oprah!", she
happily informed me). She was wearing that, plus a
leather vest & black harem pants. Yecch.
So, she showed me her bra, "Look, no bounce!" & jumped
up and down a couple times. The part s of her breast s
that were actually in the bra didn't go anywhere, but
the gobs of flesh shoved up in her armpits sure did,
as well as the ones up by her chins. It was revolting.
Wish I'd taken pictures. it was truly vile. I just
wanted to say "Oh, honey you really need a
professional fitting! That doesn't fit you AT ALL!"
but I knew that would be taken poorly, so I just
nodded & smiled.
She is apparently masterminding ways to get between
Sonar0m (malamorf) and his parents. For some stupid
reason he told them over 4th of July weekend that he
and 'skye' are indeed an item. So then they apparently
asked him to drive a u haul to Oregon for them, and
just as he was about to say 'ok', they said they were
doing it to get him away from her for a couple weeks.
So now of course he's not going to do it.
You know, all she ever does is complain about
Sonar0m...so why doesn't she just let mom&dad keep him?
He lives at home, doesn't work, has dyslexia, is
apparently a total mama's boy, has no common sense,
bla bla...
But I think she is not so much into Sonar0m as getting
off on the parental power struggle, perhaps
re-enacting something from her own relationship with
her own parents, using him as a 'puppet'. She sat
there and said what she'd instructed him to say if the
parents say or do A, B, or C...So, I think it's not
the boy, it's wresting the boy from his parents that
gets her off.
Also, apparently...she has a 'date' tonight, and
apparently it's not with sineater or Sonar0m or Kaleon. HM
yech.

Gah!
UB is vile. I totally don't blame Malomar's parents for trying to
get him away from her. However, the harder they try, the more likely
he is to hang on to her.
John called last night - third time this week. He is in Dallas - he
usually doesn't call from the road. And, we usually talk once a
week.... hardly ever oftener than that. Anyway. Very sweet call.
I had an extremely weird dream about him on Friday night actually.
We were at my office, walking around looking at art (CPDB has a
private collection); for some reason, we were pulling paintings off
the walls and making photocopies - just plunking them down on the
copier, even the really big ones. It got even more bizarre when we
got to these glass-enclosed dioramas (which we don't have in rl),
which we also plunked on the copier. Strange.
At one point, we walked from the suite into the elevator hall, and he
started telling me about this new sex act thing that he is
inventing. He then whips out this old penny, and says "I want to
manipulate you with this." I was appalled, and said, "I was going to
tell you that I loved you," and ran off in floods of tears. He went
after me, trying to tell me, essentially, that kinky sex and love
were not mutually exclusive, bla bla bla. And then, I woke up.
It was so odd, I actually made myself remember it - reciting what
happened a couple of times before I fell asleep again.
When I thought about it again in the morning - the thing that really
struck me was the use of the word "manipulate," which is, obviously,
very odd in the sexual context, but it could mean something else in
the sense of being manipulative, or whatever. Anyway. I am not
worried about it..... but it sure was bizarre.
Hung out at wine hour Friday night - until, like 9:30! It was just a
few of us, all staff, chillin', talkin' shit. It was great fun.
Only had to do a couple hours work on Saturday, and then I went to
mom & Rick's. Did chicken, and baby back ribs on the grill (simmered
in beer beforehand), salad and the greatest garlic bread ever made.
I rule. I did the bread with both roasted and fresh garlic, which
was really nice. You had both the depth & richness and the sort of
piquant thing.
Gonna head back home this afternoon, Steven's gonna call, and then I
am going to chill.
XOXOXO!
