Hey Folks
This sunday I had the rare pleasure of meeting the gorgeous vampiress, Miss Thora Zine!
'Twas the Blacksun Festival down at Yale University in New Haven Connecticut. Blacksun is a great gathering of goths for the purpose of listening to music and various other fabulous activities. When I got down there before meeting up with Thora I joined up with a Goth photo Safari.
We wandered around the Yale campus a bit.
Photographing goths atop monuments
And looking lovely on various building structures
Chaining each other up in graveyards
and hanging from trees
There was a blond girl getting more attention than the red haired girl but I thought the latter was markedly cuter. And her boob popped out a couple of times when whe was hanging from this tree and that in of itself was enough to qualify the day as a fine one indeed.
I also found Othniel Charles Marsh's tombstone in that graveyard. He was a famous dinousaur digger in the 19th century and very nearly as cool as a goth girl with a boob popping out a bit.
Later on when I met miss Thora Zine we discovered a shared appreciation for art
Anyway, Thora is an exquisite creature, much like the cats we both appreciate.
At one point we were wandering from one venue to another and I got a cell phone call from my mom who wanted to talk about what we'd be doing for my birthday, which is thursday. She asked where I was and I said I was down in New Haven hanging out with a friend from california. If she asks again I shall say it was with a friend from college or something. It could get complicated to explain in detail exactly what I was doing hanging out at a goth festival with a dominatrix from california who I know from a nudie website and with whom I mostly converse about cats. Not that I can't do that sort of thing, it's just culturally a bit outside my mom's sphere.
We hung out with some friends of hers from the band Attrition. The british pronunciation of the word "dork" is hilarious but the brits don't apparently use it.
Well anyway, I just sit and smile despite myself looking at all the pictures I took that day. Lucky I charged my batteries. Times like that come to an end much too soon. I'm still just a dork but I like that sometimes I manage to break out a bit and have a good time with interesting people, even when I'm not a fabulous mixer. A thousand thanks to ScotyRock for letting us crash at his place.
My cat max has an eye infection. He doesn't care for the treatment plan, but them's the breaks. I think maybe i should cover up the keyboard on my laptop with plastic because he likes to roll in dirt outside and a lot of it gets on my computer when he walks over it or sits on it or rests his chin on it while I'm typing which is precisely what he's doing right now as I type this.
Good night folks. Hafta turn in to be up at 345 to give max his eye ointment and then head off to work. Next week I'm going to be going out solo and I'm rather nervous about the spectacular ways in which I will doubtless screw up. Whatever. Onward and upward.

But then again, I didn't date her (or any other freshman for that matter). Was just the kiss. I think both of us had other things going on at the time anyhow.
The difference between 18 and 15 is significant. On the other hand, at 36 and 33 that is no longer the slightest of concerns.
