Last night was such an amazing night for me, because I met Scott Thompson, one of the stars (the gay one!) of my favourite TV show of all time “The Kids in the Hall”. He came to the GLBAMM (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Association of McMaster) meeting at McMaster University. I don’t think he was much like I thought he would be. He’s so funny and vulgar, I love it. Before I went to the meeting, I walked Bruce to his class and then went to the library to spend some time since I was early. I looked at photographic books for awhile but then I had to go to the bathroom. So I went to the bathroom and jerked off. Afterwards I went to Hamilton Hall to look at the job notices posted on the wall, but I didn’t see anything that I qualified for.
When I finally went to the meeting I sat around with some people and waited for Scott to show up. He came later on and talked to us for a couple of hours. Just before he left I took some photographs of him, and Bruce took one of the two of us together. Mine didn’t turn out, but the one that Bruce took did. I was so angry because I didn’t get new batteries for my flash and the flash didn’t work when I went to take Scott’s picture. I was so upset at myself for being so stupid. I’m glad I didn’t buy any new batteries though because the picture looks better without a flash. Not only did I not bring new batteries but I lost the lens cap for my camera at the university. Bruce might go back to look for it.

Anyway, I got to sit next to Scott and talk to him occasionally, which was amazing of course. I told Scott about my friend Kathy at my school and how much she loves his Francesca Fiori character (and my favourite character, the ever so gay Buddy Cole) and I got him to write a dedication to her from Francesca Fiori. She was so happy when I gave it to her that she started screaming and it looked like she was going to cry.
I’ll make some pictures of Scott for Kathy. I already did for Robin. The pictures I made of Kathy came out beautiful. I think she’ll like them when she sees them tomorrow. I’m going to make a few more ordinary prints of Kathy and then I’ll flip through her solarizations.
I just watched The Simpsons all by myself. By myself because Bruce is at work. It was a new episode where Marge gets a job at the plant and Mr. Burns falls in love with her. He finds out she’s married and he fires her, but gives her and Homer a night at his estate with Tom Robbins. It was really funny, but then again, it always is.
I have homework to do tonight. I’m doing my physics assignment now. Review of chapter three. And as always, I have waited until the last possible moment to finish it. Oh well. Soon mid-term exams will be here and I’ll have to study, physics especially. In art class Robin and I are almost finished our stage set. I think I’m going to take my statue home and put it in my new apartment when I move in with Bruce. I’m not sure how that will look, but who cares. In English class the new teacher, Mrs. Hanes, finally told us why Mrs. Rolland, our usual teacher, has been away for so long, and why she won’t be coming back at least until after exams. Mrs. Rolland has had four deaths in her family in the last year. First her father, then her uncle, then either her brother or sister, and finally the man she was going to marry this spring. I was so sad when she told us this that I almost cried. The part about her lover dying upset me the most. I wouldn’t be able to deal with that very well.
In English class this morning, Koffe walked by me and put his arm around my chest to ask if he could borrow my pen. I couldn’t answer, I almost passed out. I like him a lot because he talks to me in the hall when he sees me, and also because he’s beautiful. When Koffe was sitting down at his desk, I looked over and saw Fares and Abraham both leaning down from either side of him towards his crotch to listen to him. I fantasized about them both licking Koffe’s dick and I got a hard-on. Abraham is not someone I’m attracted to by any means, but it wasn’t really him I was thinking about, now was it?
When I was in the darkroom at the end of the day, Robin and Shawn were in there too. I’m always looking at Shawn but we’ve never really said anything to each other before, even though I want to talk to him all the time. Well, today he said “good-bye”.
