- I think I've caught up on sleep.

- Today is a house cleaning day!

- Talked to Patty. Next time I talk to Patty she will be here!

- Going to the Bastille Day thing on Smith Street tomorrow. Trying to figure out how I feel about the high likelihood of running into my Ex who never grokked my propensity for costuming and play (even without the genderfuck) while I am in drag and if said feelings are any more complex than "I hate being short." (Ex is 6'2").

Because seriously, eventhough we're nominally friends now, the thought of him being snide to me (as he very well might be) while he's with the woman I gave him advice about getting back together with (there's a long complicated story that, as these things inevitably do, boils down to her being younger than me and apparently intimidated by my existence despite the fact that we've never ever met because OMG that was like a decade ago and she can so have it!), makes me want to throw a punch and there's no universe where his saying "if you ever hit me and I find out about it...." is at all cute anymore. Wow, now there's a sentence that can only be formed by seven of the wrong type of years with someone. Jeez.

So you're saying that the woman who's totally intimidated by your existence, and about whose opinions you care not one whit, might randomly bump into you on the street while you're in drag and feeling aggressive, and this is somehow a bad thing?

Seriously, you'll be incredibly polite and genteel and completely blow her mind, and then you'll come back and post about it here and we'll all have a good laugh at her expense and be proud of you.

Also, could you please explain the fragment, "if you ever hit me and I find out about it...."? Because no matter how I turn it over in my mind, the only sense I can make of it is that he's utterly convinced that if you did hit him, it would more likely than not lead to very soap-operatic amnesia on his part.

The ex (a guy) used to tease me for being physically weak and delicate. And in bars and shit when he'd be an asshole I'd elbow hm and his way of saying that I could do that all day long and it woulsd never matter was to joke "If you ever hit me, and I find out about it...." -- i.e., I was so weak, he wouldn't even notice if i did hit him.

It's big yuck.

This would explain my laughter.

Treat the unfortunate women as your benefactor, who has taken all responsibility for looking after the hopeless schmo from off of your shoulders, much to your graceful relief.
It will bug the shit out of her.
Remember, having an outrageously good time is the best revenge, this side of small arms fire.

*I either meant to type gracious, or grateful, not sure which. Let it stand.

This sounds like a perfect plan to me as well.

It's hilarious, until you turn out to be armed...

And there's my comeback if we somehow wind up there. Thanks!
