I made it, it's day. Ahhh, daytime. Spring time. Beauty. I had a dream that I was with a shoe designer for Armani from Paris, and he was going to send me some shoes in the mail for a show that Meghan and I were going to be doing the next day, in an apartment that had electric currents running from the shower and I was creating areas all over the house to plant plants, so I could have a garden variety in a plot beside the mantle.

There were steaks in the fridge, for me and the two other models, I looked at mine and deleted it. Then I realised, if I delete it, I can't bring it back! It's gone! Now I can't have steaks at the steak party! But that's okay 'cause I'm going vegetarian anyway.

I'm happy that it's day because I was so restless last night that it was hard to stay in. but there was no real reason to go out it would have been a waste of energy.

I dated this photographer once in Lima. He was a tall Peruvian with white skin, and thick black Clark Kent glasses. I don't know what drew me to him - it was probably the glasses and the artsy streak. He didn't exactly give off 'electric' or 'exciting'. I think it was more the fact that he photographed models and was hanging out with bands - lord only knows what hypnotized me into thinking I liked him.

So months down the line, My family comes to Peru, and we're on our way to Machu Pichu, through the Sacred Valley of the Inca. We stop at this place in Ollantaytambo near the River. Diego, the photographer, happened to be staying at the same place. He was there with his two young boys that he never saw because they live with their Mother in Sweden, where he's never allowed to go, since him and his ex-lady are now estranged. My little brother and sister, Sam and Alura, are playing with Diego's sons. So he is basically hanging out with me and my Fam who are on this esoteric trek.

My older brother Sean is also there, as well as my sister Katie. So Sean and my Pops both get a wierd vibe from Diego. My Dad says " He is a tormented man, he is very closed off, and strange with his children." My Dad being pretty 'bang-on' with his observations. Of course, I never told them that I briefly dated him. It was kind of 'funny' that he was there, in one of the highest power spots on the earth, and I am indirectly getting shcooled by the men in my family on my blurry vision, or sometimes not so stellar taste. All this to say that I am glad it is day. It's day time and I'm here in the light. Safe.
