Tonight was set to be spent with Kimmay. I went and worked with her a little at the hotel. I helped her out a little, enjoying the vacancy of the hotel at 9:30/10. We played some tricks on a guest and continued our night by having a rockin' time out at La Vela. We wanted to see Note4Note, for their excellent talent and grunged beauty that perspired all night. I hadn't seen them in months. Since October. And you can't have a better "feel good moment" other than when a band member walks up to you and says, "Hey, Jenn." It's puzzlement beyond comprehension when you haven't seen a stranger in nine months and they remember your name and everything you talked about that last hazy night together. It made me feel good about myself. Outside of losing a 20 dollar bet. Kim and I had a blast. And it's always a comforting feeling when you walk into the rock areana and see more of your own friends. Like you just knew they'd be there waiting for you. The night was euphoric. Good people, good music, good times. I admit, when they did their cover of "Hey, Yeah" I got on stage and shook my ass like a poloroid picture. The line formed of drinks waiting to be bought for me that night. I only partook in one water which was meant to cover my body, man stages are fuckin' hot.
I was happy. Kim was happy. On the way out the door she couldn't begin to tell me how much she missed Tom today and how much she loves him and anything else that makes your heart vomit. She remembered this list we made when we were little about "The Things We Want In a Man." Kim's list has been checked off completely and I couldn't be happier for her. My chest was pounding. I wore my jacket tonight... after all the dancing I nearly gave out. Water couldn't save me, maybe just drown me. My chest still hurts. Its a little hard to breathe. But thats okay. This happens sometimes. Kim and I saw someone fighting with a "insignificant other" on the phone. That makes me sad, but on the other hand, I wouldn't mind fighting with mine if it meant I could actually talk to him.
I took Kim to her car after she threw water on the guitarist. Accident I suppose. Kim was missing Tom. I was thinking about Dan. 2AM I drop her off. Somehow Im starting to hate the way I feel. I wish I had joint. Im hot, sweaty, covered in water, my chest in pounding, exhausted, and worst of all, lonely. I guess I was stuck in drive with my foot on the gas cause I went from happy to empty in 8 seconds. Stupid cars. I hate cars, even car analogies like the one I just made. Im not clever. 2:10AM, I just want to see him. He'd be asleep, I'm sure, but to just crawl into his bed and close my eyes would be filling. And comfortable. Being with him is comfortable and relaxing, I never have to worry about anything. I pull up. He's not there. It was confusing. He's always there. When has he not been there? And especially at 2:15AM? Who am I going to hold tonight? The monkey... that doesn't even smell like him anymore. It's 3:08. Just me. Alone.
Let me raise my broken glass to the dirty pleasure I derive from such depressing bipolar moments like these.
