Nothing in particular

My house felt warm and homely tonight. My roomate Beth made us dinner and we watched "The Jerk." There was supossively an elitist, shmoozer party going on tonight, but I don't think twice about that shit. I only go to parties where people are down to rock shit. Shmoozers, elitists, and yuppies never smoke enough weed and never play bumping music. They always try to play fucking some Swedish shit like The Hives or International Noise Conspiracy, or they play Radiohead, and that just ain't doin me like I need to be done. It's not bad music...it just don't turn me on. I don't think anyone is gonna feel me on this, and that's okay.

I'm scared to call this one girl. I don't know what to say. I don't normally have this problem...only with girls that really move shit for me. I want some real-time with this girl, but she lives in Venice and goes to an art school on a film major 5 days a week. I work on weekends, so I can't really do that whole thing, and the only times I might see her are at drum and bass clubs, where, by the time I see her, It's 2:00am and she's already 'bout to go and I'm 'bout to go, plus I'm really drunk most of the time, which isn't really part of the problem, but adds some sort of debilitating element to the equation. The times I have talked to her have been amazing in terms of content as well as the sort of heartfelt vibe that totally feels real to me. I don't know if anyone reads my shit, but if you do, please give me your two-cents. I am taking any donation.

...maybe if you try to get into her scene.. whatever that is... if you have her number you obviously are the first step into the pool. im not sure how far venice is from you.. (obviously not italy) but if the vibe btwn you is real and enough in intensity it will find a way to happen. the sweetest relationship i ever had was w/someone in savannah GA (and i'm in NYC) he came up to CT for thanksgiving and we found a way to make it work..

this may be difficult but if you go to club and see her try to lay off tha alkie.. i hate to say it but my powers of macking are actually better without the alcohol... maybe youll think of something you didn't then?

I'm with DBD....trade the booze for coffee. I went to an elitist party for animators once in NYC....let me tell you, I cannot relate to these people and can't really understand why my buddies were going out of their way to be phony, even as means to network. I really hope this doesn't happen to me....if so, you can shoot me.
As far as the lovely lady, no beer, and keep in mind that she gave you her number. Unless you reach a convent or something to that effect, just talk. Be your sweet self.

Thanks DBD/Cartoon...your advice is much appreciated. It's one of these matters where I know what to do, but for some reason, I need to hear it from other people. I guess it's kinda like reading vs. reading and taking notes...it kinda settles in more.

I definately will try to minimize the alcohol intake and kick it with the espresso. I'm probably gonna see her this Tuesday at a club down the street, and I want to make the most of it. At least maybe establish a point of communication to where this phone-thing will be a little less awkward for me. Like I said, I'm normally okay with this stuff, but you know how it goes.

Once again, thanks. I'll keep you updated on how things work out.
