"It's just that I envisioned you with someone much different."


Val is so fired. It's Thursday and STILL no word from her. I even emailed her yesterday to asked if she had fallen into a ditch. F-I-R-E-D.


I wish words could express how irritated I am right now.

In other news, I met with some Lesbian Club members at Cocoa Bar for some red wine and chocolate -- natch. As I spent some time talking to BC, the subject of Val came up. "You guys make a very cute couple," she said. "It's just that I envisioned you with someone much different."

"How so?" I asked.

She hesitated and I assured her she could be honest. "I don't know Val that well, but I always saw you with someone who would be just as quick and witty as you. You need that challenge. You need someone who can wage a battle of wits."

How insightful. Perhaps that's why I've been feeling bored with Val -- not enough stimulation.

The conversation went on a tangent. BC related how she worked a photoshoot recently in the Upper West Side with a woman that reminded her of me. "She was in her 60s, but I couldn't stop thinking of you. She was sweet and witty and so cultured. She was just like you're going to be when you're 60."

I thought it was nice to know that there is a woman out there in New York who is my 60 year old version. Gives me hope for the future.

...and perhaps hopes with BC?

Though BC is very beautiful, she is not -- by her own definition -- my ideal woman. That and she's dating someone else.

Sigh.

You were totally born in the wrong era anyway. That 60yo woman should be you.
