Card Carrying Lesbian … What’s in your wallet?

My Buddy and Me

Posted on 17. Dec, 2009 by Sasha in Featured

It’s been a while since the last time I blogged. Let’s see, what’s been going on that I’ve been so incognito? The answer is not nearly as thrilling as one I would have hoped for. Nope, instead it’s just plain old pancreatitis. It started out as food poisoning, or so I thought. But when it didn’t go away I realized it was something more.

It’s taken a few weeks to get over it, but I’m pretty much back to normal. Save the occasional, blindingly painful stomach aches that come up if I walk too much. Other then that, I think I’ll be good as new by the New Year.

As you may remember, in my last blog I believe, I mentioned a new friend. A straight girl from my gym, named Lana. I thought back then that she and I had a real chance at developing a good friendship. Well, when I’m right I’m right!

Even throughout these weeks of my pancreas attacking me, I’ve managed to hang out with her every week, several times a week! I’m so happy when I get home from hanging out with her, that Remi has been teasing me about having a new BFF by singing, “My buddy” theme song from the 80’s!

While it’s still too early to really call her my BFF, I mean hey, I may be a lesbian but I’m not 12. ( And I’ve been so badly burned by female friends in the past year, I’m totally gun shy. And I don’t want to scare her off either!) I will say that she’s already given me a key to her house! She says she’s straight, but she’s moving pretty fast if you ask me. Lesbian fast to be exact. We’ve only known each other a month and I already have a key to her place! Don’t get me wrong, I’m totally stoked and honored. And when I think about it, she is actually the best friend I’ve had in a L – O – N – G time! I don’t want to jump the gun, but I see a very long and happy friendship in our future. Her being straight helps that out a lot, since we will never want to date the same people or each other.

When I lost my last best friend, due to lies, sex and betrayal last year I cried for weeks. I was truly heartbroken over losing that friendship and thought that type of bond only comes around once a lifetime, if you’re lucky. Then I listened to “The Secret” (which if you haven’t yet, go do it!) and I thought, what the hell? I did as they tell you to, made a list of the perfect friend that I wanted and voila! I met Lana about 2 weeks later and she’s everything on that silly list and more!

So while being sick has sucked, getting to hang out with my new friend has been awesome. I can’t wait to take her to Girl Bar and show her around West Hollywood. I’ve already got her hooked on the L Word and she’s ben watching them in marathon succession for the last 3 days. Boning up on her lesbian vernacular and what not.
