Busy Week
Please excuse me extended absence, it's been one hell of a week. I've mostly spent it watching the hair on my underarms (- excuse me, Auty... I haven't found a better word for them yet) grow back... and also playing 3 live shows in 3 different locations. Needless to say, I am very drained this Sunday night... and very grateful that I don't have an office to show up to tomorrow morning, or anything of that sort.
Freelancing from home has its benefits.
As per observation it seems like I am developing into some sort of token for our band, that seems to "sell" with the audience. Been gawked at, invited to drinks, and turned down a persistent invitation to have my toes soaked in lime and salt, and then thoroughly licked. That's one of those moments when I am tempted to make it public that I don't do guys, just to be able to get out of situations like that. And it wouldn't be hard to pull off, seeing as The Fiancé (in his function as our manager) and I keep it professional (i.e. distant) when we're out with the band. If the "official lesbian" thing would pay off for the good of the band though I dare to question... seeing as said lime and salt guy turned out to be the member of a rather well-known band, and a close friend of the owner of the bar we played at, and I am sure it was because of me letting him invite me to a drink it was that we got to talk about some future exposure possibilities for the band.
Either way... this isn't my band blog (- I use my "real" blog for this purpose these days, almost exclusively now - and I get less and less commenters the more and more I talk about it... shows me how entertaining it is for people to follow my budding career in the music business... LOL!), so what's really mentionworthy in this last week on this blog is the fact that apparently it doesn't take a Jo to completely sweep me off my feet.
Sure... said girl (- let's call her simply O) isn't her... nowhere near Jo's statuesque beauty and captivating personality, but that's to be expected. No one is. However... she is 5'11"... she is slender but not thin, and has black hair all the way down her back... and a really beautiful face. I didn't get to talk with her much, but she seems smart, really self-confident, and funny.
And she's dating this 5' black guy.
No, really... 5'. Maybe 5'1", but I doubt it. He's the smallest guy I have ever seen without being a midget... really cool dude, totally into the music business, and a blast to hang out with... but seeing those two together one cannot help but blink a few times. And boy, I couldn't help but keep on staring at that girl. Beautiful woman... and a lot easier to stay in contact with than Jo... seeing as she just moved in with 5' dude, and 5' dude rents a condo on The Fiancé's boss' property.
And we'll be staying in touch over some music issues. Quaint. :)
Now... I am not going after her in any way... especially not after seeing how much in love those two seem to be... but I am truly glad that a woman other than Jo managed to truly get and capture my attention the way O did. Maybe there is hope for me, afterall...
...and maybe I should finally delete that voice message off my cell phone and move on...
