Hey babe,
By now I think you know when there's been Yet Another Crisis at this place - I tend to fall off the edge of the planet. Luckily the crisis mostly wasn't mine this time, and I'm all in one piece, so nothing to worry about there. But there is something I need to tell you, since it explains why I haven't been to visit for a while.
Basically? I'm grounded. Totally and utterly, until the first of October. I did something really stupid, got caught and that's the punishment. Which is why I haven't dropped round or arranged to meet up with you in town or anything. And why I won't be able to go to this HeliX thing, which is shitty since I really would like to go. Yeah, imagine that, me wanting to go to a fancy do. But it's HeliX, and you'll be there in all likelihood, and fuck it all, fun would be a great thing right now.
Um. Any way. I'm hoping you still go, if you were planning to, since I asked Manuel to introduce himself to you - I figured it's about time you two met up, and in a way it's easier if I'm not there to get all weird. And he could do with talking to normal people, and since there won't be any of those, you'll do. *grins* Just pulling your leg. Seriously, talking to you would do him a lot of good, I think, and if you don't get on, well, it's a big party mansion and you can hang out with the rest of the crew. Angelo'll probably be there, and Shinobi, and most of the coffee group.
Oh, just remembered. That logo you designed? Is fucking brilliant.
But yeah. That's mainly what I wanted to say. Apart from I'm a horrible friend for not being in touch sooner. And that I can't wait until this fucking punishment is over so we can go to a movie or something. 'Cause I miss you. And I suck.

Date: 2004-09-21 07:04 am (UTC)Ooh, photomanipulation, huh? Can I see what you did? I suck at that, mostly because I've never actually bothered to try.. we could totally work on something, though. Maybe I should save up a metric ton of cab fair, and we can go on a photo-taking spree next month sometime? Hit all the tourist traps, like the Empire State Building, and Liberty Island, and all that crap. Could use it to manip up some really snarky mutant rights type stuff, if we tried. Just need ideas on composition.
Oh-ho. A broken nose was involved. Yours, or theirs? Either way, there is still snuggling in your future, so don't worry about me having a freak-out. That'd be silly.
Consider Sunday free. I'll bribe the parental types somehow. Offer to clean the gutters the weekend after or something. Like I mind an excuse to go play on the roof and get my hands dirty. Pfft.
An empath? Um. This is a bad time to mention that telepaths and that kind of thing really kind of freak me out a little, isn't it? Um. Okay, putting on the pretty face is out, then, I guess.. but I'll do my best, I swear.
He's your man, after all. (Okay, so maybe I am insecure. Again with the 'sue me'.)
And I am proud of you. And smiling innocently as I point out you spelled 'grammar' wrong. You should go to bed. Once you bury the math book, anyway.

Date: 2004-09-21 01:27 pm (UTC)I like the poster idea a lot. Remind me to show you my stuff from last semester when you come over next, especially the one on art as propaganda. And the controversial art project, although I tend to not keep that one out - you'll know why when you see it. But yeah, something about US icons and mutants...
Hers. And I have to admit, for a second? Enjoyed wiping the smug smile off that bitch's face. Of course, all of the rest of it made me feel like shite, but I'm not going into it. It might not give you a freak-out, but it does give me one.
Sunday it is. I'll email Pete and tell him he's making an abduction for me. *grins* He'd never admit it, but he really would do almost anything for me. If I ask proper. I could even offer to help you with those gutters, if my time is up by then. You'd be surprised how handy the magic can be. *grins*
Oh fuck. I didn't realise, babe... If it's too much, tell me now, and I'll explain to Manny, ask him to steer clear. He's working for the Prof most of the night anyway, as a personal assistant type, so it's not like you'd keep running into him. Maybe leave this until later, when I'm there? He'd never do anything to you, I swear, but I know people have problems with his power. It's not his fault, just whatever bad luck gives out mutant powers in the first place, and he's trying to be a decent person with it, really. But if you don't want to do this, I'll understand.
My man. You have no idea how odd that sounds. But in a good way.
Bah. English spelling. It's not my fault you Americans had to go and change things, is it? And yeah, I think sleep is a good idea. I had to wipe out a whole bunch of gibberish before 'cause I fell asleep on the keyboard. You go too. *shoos* Night, babe. It's been good talking to you again. Gives me a happy. :)

Date: 2004-09-21 05:26 pm (UTC)Glad your nose is in one piece, though I'm told getting your nose broken gives your face character. That's what mom said the first time I broke mine, anyway. Ah well. God knows you've got enough character for, like, a small island nation, or something. *g*
Pete's good people. I'll make sure I'm in fit form to be kidnapped. Just let me know when he wants to come get me, and I'll leave my window unlocked for him. Or just, y'know, be awake to answer the door, whatever he prefers.
Nuh-uh - HeliX is all about the tolerance thing, so I'd have to pack up and go home if I wigged on meeting one guy, wouldn' I? Besides, he's your guy, and it isn't like I can avoid it forever, and you want me to, so. Just warn him ahead of time and tell him I promise to try, okay?
I can guess.
