Title: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on April 16, 2010, 06:41:57 PM
I'm starting a new thread because the old thread is full of fail and OT and needs to be abandoned. Clean me. If I don't get any good stories out of this one I'll send each of you a tube of salve.

So, current status: Still "almost single". Why my fucking husband won't just finish up this divorce is beyond me. The state won't let us get divorced until he has life insurance. I hate you, Oregon. I fucking hate you.

I just started dating an incredibly hot, incredibly nerdy scooter boi. I really can't believe I'm dating a programmer who rides a scooter; a month ago, before I saw this glamorous thing in a short skirt, I would have said ew. I also suspect him of being a trust-fund baby; just something about him, and how he doesn't have a job and isn't in school and has no debt, but has a nice apartment and a new car. But he is damn pretty, Italian, and likes to dress up as a girl. I am sold.

He is also really "down to eather and ok with what's up", which is good, because this is going nowhere and we are both comfortable with that.

In the meantime, my FBF has been trying for no less than two years to set me up with this guy Mr. Language who is one of her other best friends. Unfortunately, during this time I have been completely unable to pay attention, because first, well, I wrote 55 poems about... it, and then Mario (when I started seeing Mario she threw her hands up and said "Well fuck it. No one can compete with THAT"). But chance is sometimes kind, and the other night hanging out with my friend The Impossibly Short Eclectic Artist on her birthday, Mr. Language came into the Red Fox which is my favorite bar (also the only bar where the owner hugs me) and I had a conversation with him, and it was really good, and suddenly I realized that Mr. Language is quite appealing, in a let's-not-be-hasty way. In a seriously, let's not only not be hasty, but if we go there we had best fucking mean it way.

Which does not at all resolve my other problem, which in terms of Mr. Language becomes a pretty major problem, of having been in love with my non-FBF, who I conscientiously rarely mention, for the last three years, which perhaps I will someday just come to terms with and move past, allowing it to become a background hum as I go on with my stupid love life.

Mr. Language just asked me out. W00t!

I was not aware until yesterday that Mr. Language is also the gentleman responsible for The Legendary Best Date Ever which I have heard about from my FBF at least five hundred times. He's a DJ at one of the local radio stations (DJ's, dammit. He was probably a philosophy major too) and for this date, they hung out at the station and talked and drank and he let her play anything she wanted. This probably wouldn't be MY Best Date Ever; in fact it sounds legendarily tedious, but for her it was epic.

Obviously they didn't work out, but they're really good friends now, which seems like a good sign.

He's in the process of opening a foreign-language school for kids and just generally being awesome.

Glad to hear things are going well.  I know it may be that early in the relationship rose colored glasses, but you really sound less conflicted and more generally happy about this guy. 

I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out.  Although if it turns out too well it may stop satisfying my need to enjoy the misfortunes of others.

Thanks!

I'm a little concerned about being hung up on He Whom We Will Not Name, but I'll deal with it when/if it becomes an obstacle. I don't even know if I'm going to have chemistry with Mr. Language yet; no need to worry beyond the first date at this point.

Seems like, yet again, we seem to be leading a parallel love life Nigel.  Since that's basically how I feel about Cute Assyrian Nerd. 


No matter!  Cute boys, flirting, and dates are always fun!  Right?   :D

Mr. Language emails me a week in advance to see if I might be available next Saturday.

Hello, Mr. Language.

I've been reading some of Mr. Language's work on privilege; it almost kind of makes me wish he was on the board, because he has a lot to say that I think most of the people here would find interesting.

I'm not quite ready to be that naked in front of him, though. He makes me kind of nervous; he's intellectually formidable.

Ohh I know what you mean... But does he talk as if he went to Finishing school or the likes?

See how he goes with the dinner plan :)
Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on April 21, 2010, 02:39:32 AM
No finishing school sort, just talks like a normal college graduate. Kind of rough-and-tumble in some ways, and very handy with building things and whatnot, as well as whatever it is he does... opening schools and making documentaries and radio DJing and generally making the rest of us look like boring chumps. He's from Tuscon originally (should I be afraid, Dok?) and then spent some years in Honduras doing something with poor people. Hopefully not murdering them for organs.

On a completely unrelated subject, I got proposed to by one of my friends, again, and I'm starting to think he might not be kidding. It's a little disturbing. He wants a babby. I don't want any more babbys.

So I had my second/third date with Scooter Boi/crossdresser last night. It was great! We discussed important factors, such as that he does not want a girlfriend right now and that I don't want anyone to move into my house, ever. Also his feelings won't be hurt if I suddenly fall in love with someone else.

In honor of Mark Growden I am renaming him Fuck Boy. I wish there was a decent recording of that song because he's stopped performing it. That's one thing about some people when they stop doing drugs; for some reason they become prudes. WTF. Half of what makes Growden great is that he's a lascivious bastard... or was, anyway. :cry:

Right now it's only Fuck Boy and Mr. Language. I no longer sleep with Surfer Boy because we became really good friends and decided to just do that instead. I'm really not into the hippie, even though he's really sweet and cute, and the other one isn't really worth mentioning.

I don't really have time for more than two, anyway.

Other than the fact that the movie we watched (La Moustache, which about five people recommended to me, apparently solely on the basis that it was kind of about a moustache) was a huge steaming pile of French WTF, the date was very good. I learned his middle name (which is every bit as overwhelmingly Italian as his first and last, and which I had already guessed... it was either that or Antonio), and he seems to think that I am the most "interesting" person on the planet. In other words, I think I am a novelty toy again.

I'm OK with that, he's a smokin' hot scooter boy. We can be mutually novel.

Last night a friend took me out for Mother's Day. Last thing I remember we were sitting at the bar laughing at some 24-year-old who thought he was smooth-talking us. This morning I woke up buck nekkid and sore everywhere, with my big black Feeldoe next to me.

Oh dear.

This evening, the supremely chaste Mr. Language and I had our third date, which was Korean food followed by a private karaoke room. At the end of the evening, I got a hug. And we are hanging out again next week. I can't figure out if he is EVER going to kiss me.

Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on May 17, 2010, 08:53:15 AM
Wow. So.

GREAT date, we had an awesome time and blah blah blahed until about two minutes ago. I know I looked pretty, my schmink was subtle yet enhancing, and I'm wearing one of my halter dresses with the cleavage (but not too much cleavage) that makes me look particularly like something out of a Spanish villa. Oh, and the sexy (but not too sexy) green bondage shoes that everybody comments on. He told me I looked great and said he wants to spend more time together, like maybe a whole day out hiking or something.

The good news is that we got past hand-holding.

The bad news is that the next stop past hand-holding seems to be a couple of hugs.

Is this some sort of slowboat seduction technique? I don't know what to do with this guy.

I'm blaming CAN's behavior on it being cultural since he's from Iran, and has only lived in the US for a few years for college.  It's not something I'm looking for relationship wise but it's kinda fun to be treated like a delicate lady from time to time.   :)
Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on May 17, 2010, 05:39:44 PM
This boy does not treat me like a delicate lady. He is very anti-chivalry or other displays he considers sexist. This is quite disorienting, because I'm used to having doors opened for me, etc.
Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Dysnomia on May 17, 2010, 05:42:20 PM
But opening doors is not sexist.  It's just polite...I open doors for other people if I make it first, and if someone beats me it's always nice to have someone hold the door for me rather than to let it fall in my face.

If he gets to the door first, he opens it and holds it for me. Most men I've been with, though, make a point of ALWAYS opening the door, and opening and closing the car door for me, always doing the driving, etc. so I've gotten used to it.

He APOLOGIZED for opening my car door for me last night. He said "I know this looks like chivalry, but it's just that the locks are funny, I promise" as if I would be offended if I thought he was opening the door for me because I'm a woman, and his date.

In this day and age, it's a potentially lose/lose situation.  I've gotten glares for not rushing ahead and opening/holding doors for women, and I've also been scolded for treating women as if they are too weak and incapable of getting their own damn door.

It really is, and I don't understand why some women think it's offensive.  I think it's just nice. 

But I suppose it's dying the sort of way table manners are.  I mean, I hardly see parents who teach their kids not to eat like a slob these days.  Which, unfortunately, is one of my MAJOR pet peeves.  I just cant take the mouth smacking.  Seriously, just CHEW WITH YOUR TRAP SHUT UGH!   :argh!:

At the same time, while it is a nice courtesy for a guy to hold the door, et al, should a woman be offended if he doesn't?  Because the amount of shit guys get for not doing this seems pretty disproportionate.  I mean, if it's just common courtesy, why aren't women expected to do it?  You know, a general rule: "whoever is first to the door, hold it open for others."  Why is it a "men only" rule?

I don't think it should be a men only rule, because that is sexist.  Everyone can open a door.  IMO it's just good manners for whoever gets there first to open the door for whoever after them.

Right now my stupid love life isn't really stupid at all. :) I don't know what beautiful providence shook the boy tree while I was standing under it, but three of the most lovely, unique, wonderful men I've ever met have fallen into my life over the last couple of months. Gorgeous, strong, frustrating, delightful, forthright souls, and they couldn't be more different from each other.

It's going to be a great summer.

An update on Mr. Language: the other day he came over, and we drove to my favorite hiking trail. I was not raised Catholic, nor even religious in any way other than my mother's vague interpretation of nature/earth/ancestor spirituality, but I have formed this notion that there are 12 stations on this trail. The first 3 are:

1. A pond
2. A Buddhist shrine on an island in the stream at the trail fork
3. Three rocks inset with plaques, under the power lines, commemorating "Fixing the Hole" which would be too time-consuming to explain here.

I have not yet discovered the other 9 stations, but I am certain I will.

At the pond, we kept having awkward silences, which eventually Mr. Language started making fun of. Essentially, we would be talking, and then there would be a pause, in which I would be looking up at him, offering my face and my eyes and my mouth to him, and he would make a joke about how that would have been a perfect time to kiss me.

And it would have.

We walked on. I am very short and he is very tall, which only matters when we talk, which is all the time.

It is hard to explain how his refusal to kiss me intensifies my interest. Unlike any other man I have been with, he is in complete control of this relationship.

Day of Discord hot dog BBQ in the park, rain falling hard, harder, impossibly hard like sheets of wet assaulting the arched canopy of oak and maple. Little band of revelers laughing, shivering, eating wet hot dogs and corn dogs and pork rinds and artificially-red-flavored sponge-like snack cakes, drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon out of styrofoam cups. Blue-eyed stranger, clearly crazy laughing singing at the end of the table. I saw him when he arrived, hooded mystery goat-beard man. He looks like my He Whom We Will Not Name, except he doesn't; there's just something about him. The hood and the goat-beard, the pale eyes, only these eyes are an unreal shade of light aqua blue.

Aqua.

Decision was made instantly, this pale-eyed stranger.

"I don't know what's happening; all I know is that wherever you're going, I'm following you."

Hours later, drinks later (but not too many drinks) I was just going to kiss his cheek, that spot at the corner of his jaw where I could catch his scent, but he intercepted me with smooth lips and rough stubble and tongue and sweetness.

In the morning, I asked about the scar on his back but he doesn't remember getting it. I suppose that compared to the other scar, eight angry inches bisecting his smooth young perfect belly, a little half-inch gash wouldn't have been memorable.

Mr Language.

We have been on five dates and he refuses to kiss me. I asked him, finally, after the third date, and he said that he is struggling with a barrier.

The barrier is that he is in love with another woman.

She lives in LA and is nearly 20 years younger than him. Than us. This does not bother me, because I am in love with my best friend, and I don't anticipate that changing. He lives in Portland but might as well live in LA. Maybe I can send him there, to live with Mr. Language's beautiful young love.

Everything is changing soon, he says. He has an idea, a plan. Sunday, he says. It will be memorable, and it will be something I've never done before, he says. I am in knots, trying to figure out what it is that he is so certain I've never done before. He will tell me on Friday, he says.

For his plan to work I have to know about it in advance. He says.

He is a tease, this Mr. Language. He barely touches me, won't let me close. He will take my hand at the end of a date, and he will allow a brief hug. He is a handsome man, with mad-professor hair, a Polish nose, and dark-ringed bright blue eyes. A scar extends through his   lower lip, and there is a scar on his chin. He says the bone showed through. I am curious to find his other scars, and he knows this.

His great strength is in his words; he is a great crafter of language, a master. He frames seemingly innocent texts to have subtly suggestive subtexts, knowing what will go through my head. He freely admits to baiting me; he says my frustration delights him. He says I am refreshing. His reticence arouses me, and he likes knowing that. This is the shape of our courtship.

For the first time in a long time, I am completely not at all in control of the situation. I am bewildered. Who is driving relationship?

Mr. Language is driving relationship.

Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life

I like Scrabble. A lot. I used to play various versions of Scrabble with a friend, including co-operative Scrabble, swear word Scrabble, made-up-word Scrabble, aesthetically pleasing Scrabble, and story Scrabble, in which we had to write a story using every word on the board. I am not especially good at Scrabble, but I am especially good at having fun, and Scrabble is fun. Other than Scrabble, I hate board games. They fill me with dread.

Talking, Mr. Language and I lowered some barriers, made our way to another level of intimacy. I like this new level. It makes me nervous, but in a pleasant way.

This TED talk has been on my mind a lot lately:  http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/helen_fisher_tells_us_why_we_love_cheat.html

This is one by my favorite biophysicist: http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/luca_t...scent.html

I was reading the biography of Luca Turin on the train to Seattle last Spring, on my way to meet a lover. My heart was sore from losing Grendelmouse, and I was about halfway through my Laments. I want to quote Turin, but I can't find the book; he speaks of a perfume called Paradox, and says that it is the scent of beautiful heartbreak.

I am trying to put the parts of this story in the right order. They all have to do with each other.

I did not notice until I read that book that my perfumes are associated with particular lovers, and when we part ways I don't wear that scent anymore. I have a shelf of half-used perfumes, and it is interesting to me to note who gets a perfume, and who doesn't.

In the midst of my own beautiful heartbreak, on the train running away from Portland, I became obsessed with acquiring Paradox, and in Seattle my lover, indulgently, took me to a few perfume counters trying to find it. Finally, on a tip from one of the salesgirls, he called the largest perfume house in Seattle, who told him that the only place to buy Paradox on the West Coast is the perfume house in Portland.

Odor is such a fundamental element in attraction. I played Scrabble once on a first date with a beautiful half-Seminole bartender. I knew I would sleep with him as soon as I shook his hand and got a whiff of his scent. Some people are nearly odorless; others are almost overwhelming, but it's the basic nature of that underlying odor that determines attraction. Mario stinks; he is easily the smelliest man I have ever been with, and if I were to describe his odor it would sound repulsive, but to me it was an aphrodisiac. He said that he didn't have to turn to look when I approached; he could recognize me by my scent. There is a very, very expensive and barely-used bottle of Mitsouko hidden away in a box in my bedside drawer; I bought it and started wearing it instead of Paradox the day I decided to accept that I was falling in love with him.

Very shortly before my first date with Mr. Language, I purchased a bottle of Shalimar. I have not been wearing it.

He asks if I want to play Scrabble.

The kiss will take place after consuming an entire bottle of wine, to the accompaniment of a soundtrack preselected by Mr. McDade.

:mittens: to mr Language! that guy is SERIOUS about being romantic!


Yeah, he really really is. :)

Also, why is EVERY picture of him grainy and dark?

BUENO!!!

The day began with an hourly countdown until midnight. I made the flyers (SICKENINGLY twee!) and went to his house to meet him, then we went to Hawthorne to staple posters to poles. At one point we went into Fred Meyer for a bottle of wine, and I gave the cashier a flyer, which started a dialogue wherein she asked obvious questions, like "Wait, you've been dating for six weeks and you still haven't kissed? Do you WANT to kiss? Why haven't you done it yet?"

Then, he took me to Portland City Grill, where they assumed that "first kiss" meant "anniversary of first kiss", and brought us a little puff pastry dessert as congratulations. Then we went to Pix, and had a framboise float and a chocolate stout float. THEN, up to the Grotto, which we snuck into via a gap in the fence, found a not-too-wet log to sit on, and waited like nervous teenagers until midnight.

It was a nice kiss, is all I'll say about that.

Then we opened the wine and drank and talked and made out until about 2:40, crept out, and went to my house where we cuddled (in pajamas!) until we fell asleep. In the morning, he realized that his phone was missing so we went back to the Grotto, and then, driving around the back, found an amazing, AMAZING place with rocks and cliffs and a cave. We're going to go back when the weather warms up a bit!

Then we went and had sausages at Old Country Sausage, and I took him home. Whew! I'm so tired. But it was the best date I've EVER had.

I mean, it's something I've wanted to do for a while anyway. Plus it shows that I remembered/meant it when I said we'd go skydiving some day (we were chatting about stuff we'd like to do before we're out of college and she mentioned how none of her friends were down for skydiving, and I was like "hell yes I'll do that with you!").

We did get it on a week ago, actually, and it was pretty good.

Part of me is thinking, shit, it's just a slow process and I should hang in there and be patient and wait for him to be really ready to move on from his ex-girl. Another part of me thinks that will never happen as long as they stay in touch and that romance is being fed via ongoing communication.

And yet another part of me just hates the word "should".

Well, he might need more time, and maybe you can keep that avenue open, while in the meantime exploring other options?
If you really like him it might be worth keeping that door open for when he's ready to walk through it.

Edit: within a reasonable timeframe, naturally.

I'm not burning any bridges, but I'm also going to assume that he's a lost cause. He's going to be around in the periphery of my life anyway because he knows a lot of my friends, but I won't be talking to him.

If he wanted to be ready, he'd be ready. He doesn't want to get over her, so he won't. That simple. I knew this going in, but I want more from a relationship than he has to offer, so it's time to walk.

It is possible that me losing my shit and breaking up with Mr. Language was a good thing on more than one level; we are talking again. Not back together, but talking. He has distanced himself from the ex, and is maybe possibly making some progress toward wanting to move on.

I'm not back in until/unless that happens, though. Not expecting anything. But feeling optimistic about whatever friendship/relationship evolves.

You probably know your face better than most people.

It looks sweet like you're amused by something just off camera.

No really, sweet pic overall. So is there a good chance of things working out with this guy? He sounds great.

To sum it up, if you'd put explosives in the cat, and you make this face, you'd totally get away with it.

I did not drop any hints, though he did walk in while I was reading CC and saw some posts by Dok Howl which attracted his attention, and then he wanted to know if Dok Howl was me. I WAS GOOD, I SWEAR!  :lulz:

LMNO, Bernie! I wondered what the hell he was talking about. So, his cousin from Wisconsin, who took that picture, carries that thing EVERYWHERE and when I was over there the other night Mr. Language opened a beer "for Bernie". I don't understand what the hell the deal is, but I think it's that he is crazy.

Thanks, Trip. :) I am actually blissfully unaware of what my face is doing 99.8% of the time because I can't see it unless I'm in front of a mirror, but that expression shows up a lot in pictures... my photographer friends tell me I'm extremely difficult to get candid shots of because my face is very mobile and usually doing something terrible. I can't make that particular face if I try.

Things look pretty good for working out with Mr. Language. :)

Today Mr. Language said that he would like to spend more time in bed.

I said nothing, but internally I rejoiced.

What is that face I make all the time? I'm making it in about half my pics. It's a face like I put explosive in the cat & everybody's gonna die in a minute. And then I'll laugh my ass off.

Fixed.

Yep, that's EXACTLY it.  :lulz:

Mario called me today. It is possible that he just wanted to talk and reconnect, especially since he had a really difficult trip to Florida and, as much as E.O.T. is my comfort object, I'm Mario's comfort object. However, if what he wants is to get into my pants, I am fairly certain that my reaction will be along the lines of "YAY!" followed by rapid clothing removal.

This is fine with Eater of Souls, but I am less sure whether it's a good idea in terms of my emotional connection with him, because I loved Mario once and could probably love him again, and if he was the guy with the sex, it's pretty easy to see how that might distract me from Eater of Souls.

Well, in the most pragmatic and clinical sense, I have personally found that it exponentially complicates relationships. 

As far as I have observed, your relationships are already fairly complicated.  It seems excessive to further complicate what you and Mr Language may or may not have.

Non-monogamy is a perfectly valid existence.  I have not moral qualms about it.  I'm just proposing that it may make things simpler if, for now, you focus all your energies on Mr Language.
Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Doktor Howl on July 30, 2010, 08:42:14 PM
If monogamy doesn't suit you, and Mr Language is on board, then get your monkey on.

But shoving your head in a known meatgrinder is another thing entirely.

Just saying.
Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life
Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on July 30, 2010, 08:51:34 PM
Since I'm not currently fucking the guy I am in love with, and I have a fairly strong sex drive, keeping my energies focused there is not working all that well for me. However, like I've already said, Mario is probably the absolutely worst outlet for that... albeit, the hottest.  :fap:

But I've made my decision and will be talking to Eater of Souls about it soon.
Title: Re: Nigel's possibly slightly less stupid love life

I did some textification with EoS... I really need to talk to him in person, but I kind of clued him into where I'm at. I think everything will be fine; he just needs a little incentive to step to. Not that it is my intention (nor am I the instigator!) but maybe the threat of Mario moving in on me is the incentive that I couldn't provide on my own.

So like, shit is awesome, and stuff.

Mr. Language and I have been boyfriend and girlfriend for nine whole days, and we had our first fight on Saturday, four months and four days after our first date. :D We were so excited that we wrote it on the calendar.

He says I'm the easiest and most reasonable girlfriend he's ever had, which makes me wonder what kind of psychotic freaks he normally dates? I mean, whoa. Also, he tries to take care of me. I barely remember the last time anyone tried to take care of me! OK, actually I do totally remember, it was one time I was sick and puking my brains out and E.O.T. fed me soup and tea and tucked me into bed. So, this is pretty fucking nice.

This thread is now probably only useful for nauseating comments about how adorable he is and how cute we are together, so I will try to minimize its use. :)

So, this morning was perfectly lovely and Mr. Language and I were talking about going to Mexico and Germany in the next two years, and then conversation meandered to the subject of people just disappearing, and I asked whether and how I would find out if something happened to him and he ended up in the hospital, and suddenly he turned into a TOTAL DICK and was all, "That's just how it is, that's how it's always been, I'm a lone wolf; I just drift from girlfriend to girlfriend. I'm two years older than you and I've always been OK, don't worry about me"

WHAT THE FUCK

I just wanted to know if his emergency contacts would call me if something happened. I didn't know that level of inquiry into the logistics of his personal life would turn him into a raging douche. I could tell that it was partly tongue-in-cheek, but what the fuck. Now I'm wondering if this relationship's days are numbered. I'm only willing to take it as seriously as he does, and fuck me if that wasn't a reasonable question if we're taking it seriously.

Actually, he showed up here RIGHT AS I WAS POSTING THIS and I told him that I was unhappy about this morning and that he had been kind of a dick, and he apologized and filled out an emergency contact card with my name on it and put it in his wallet. Problem solved! :)

I'm rather proud of myself for having the ability to apologize for being a dick within 1 hour of committing dickery. I like to think of it as a skill that comes with practice.

I APOLOGIZE

            with a "...but" clause, therefore never ceasing to be a dick.

I found that if I refuse to look at or talk to you, you eventually make a proper apology.

I don't know, but the video is of ugly carved rock fountains of naked women, from which I take that he's a sculptor. A terrible sculptor.

also this doesn't really belong in this thread but I forgot where the OK Cupid fun thread went.

THIS

It looks like she's waterboarding herself because of the water coming out of her mouth...

...and her nipples... :|

eta:

the first one doesn't even look like anything, and WHY are they all bending over backwards (hurts my back just looking at it), and it's obvious he's never seen a naked woman irl before (much less had sex with one) because of how deformed these women all are.

It's really all explained by the fact that he is a TERRIBLE SCULPTOR. I can't help wondering if he's maybe a little brain-damaged or just mildly retarded.

The fact he calls them goddess fountains suggests to me that he is marketing to pagans.  The fact that something marketed to pagans looks rather like a woman being coerced by the inquisition into confessing to witchcraft amuses me to no end.

hey if you ever really end up travelling to Germany, be sure to let me know. cause if you're in the proper region of Germany, I could totally stop by (especially Cologne, cause my gf's parents live there). (on the other hand, I would suggest you go to BERLIN because IT FUCKING ROCKS and I'm sure you'd love it too. except Berlin is really too far away from here for me to randomly stop by--but let me know anyway cause we went there and I can give tips on fun things to see/do/drink/eat)

That would be SUPER COOL! I will most likely be staying in Lauscha, and I plan to be there for about a month. Probably not 2011, but maybe 2012.

hmm (looking up) 652km (405mi) that's about twice the distance to Cologne :( but then, 2012 is far away (I have to be at a Mexican Maya temple in that year too) so who knows! :)

also, afaik, Verbatim is (often) in, or near, Leipzig, which is much closer.

I will probably have some opportunity to travel, and 405 miles doesn't sound very far to me... though of course, it depends on the roads and available transportation. The artist in residence at Lauscha glass factory has offered me a guest artist spot, which I would very much like to take. If it goes well, I'll probably return for a month or two here and there.

Not far? Hm, I suppose it's maybe Americans are more used to travelling long distances by car then, lots of empty space, after all? [my gf concurs--when she was travelling in China perception gets different when everything is farther apart]

Cologne is 300km (188mi), and that's 3.5 hours to travel, even though you can go very fast on the German Autobahns (how fast mostly depends on what your car can safely perform, we often go 100-110 mph on the quiet parts).

Or maybe it's got something to do with the prices of gasoline over here:
http://www.google.com/search?q=1.45+euros+per+liter+in+dollar+per+gallon
(for fuel efficiency, my gf's car does http://www.google.com/search?q=8+liter+per+100km+in+gallons+per+100+mile)

aaaanyway I'm sure we can work something out when the time comes :)

Your gas is very expensive, and I likely won't have a car. I am not unused to weekend trips to Arcata or Victoria; it's about 300 miles to Victoria and 500 miles to Arcata, but faster to go to Arcata because you don't have to take a ferry.

I'm sure that something will work out! :)
