On the Edge

As my faux girlfriend gig approaches, Adam informed me that my paid appearance fee is sitting in the safe at work. What? Why? Because Adam is so compulsive about his weakness for 420, he didn't want to blow the money he made from selling his porn collection on Craigslist a/k/a my faux girlfriend fee, literally, blow it. So he asked the boss at the club to put the money in the safe and not to give it to him for any reason, even if he begged, until the appointed date and only when I show up with him to pick it up and head off to his father's 50th birthday party.

I asked Adam today how his girlfriend feels about not going to the birthday party, solely because Adam didn't want to present the pink-haired, tattoo'd and pierced bongsucking leech as his girlfriend with all his relatives there. He admitted 'hint hint' she's not really his 'girlfriend girlfriend'. So she's a weed whore, was the drift I picked up. Altho she now lives at his apartment, because she'd be homeless otherwise. She cooks, cleans, gives oral, but according to Adam, can't get her act together. Meaning she can't keep a job longer than a few weeks and doesn't spend much time looking for new ones. Her parents had kicked her out of the house and she'd been on the sofa circuit (crashing on different sofas) till she landed on Adam's.

I asked if she had any talents, career goals? He just laughed. She does have some talents, he reported. Yeeeah, of course. But she even got rejected when she sent some pics to apply to be a Suicide Girl! Massive blow to her self-esteem or lack thereof. When she does get a job, he said, instead of kicking him over some money toward rent or bills, she spends the money on body art and ornamentation. I can't imagine a life at 25 where there is no future except watching more tv, occasionally running a vacuum, getting a new tatt or piercing when there's cash and sucking on cock to get to suck on a bong.

Despite my lack of responsibility in certain areas of my life, namely partying, I still have a core, an ethic to work hard, do something with my life and when I see a girl who just has nothing, no core, no work ethic, I wonder how long can she hold out? How long can she play Scheherazade to Adam's Persian King before he gets bored or tired of her bullshit. Before she ends up getting kicked out of his place, sleeping on the beach and working a corner where the cars slow down to check out the merchandise.
