I wrote to Barry:

Today I received my tentative exit date from BMG, 26 August. Given that date, I'm looking at mid-November to fly over to England. Will be staying with Tallis, but would like to shake your hand and scamper off if you have the time during the week I'll be there. I'm looking at flying over on the 10th and leaving the 18th before American airfares go up for Thanksgiving. So....wow. It may actually happen. Here's hoping I don't make a complete schlemiel of myself.

He replied, saying (and I paraphrase) that it would be great to finally see me.

I just know that I'm going to make an utter idiot of myself. I'm gonna let my phobia get the better of me and just freak out, and not in a Chic way. The more I think about it, the uneasier I become. [livejournal.com profile] falkenna swears I'll feel differently once I've actually met him. Me'Shel'le was also very vocal about how wonderful a soul he is. So....::deep gulp::....

::counts months on fingers::

Three months. By the time comes for me to take the trip, I'm going to be a basket case. Ehm...yeah. Well, at least [livejournal.com profile] falkenna will be there, so I feel better about it on a certain level.

Talk about one's imagination getting away with them. Really, it's actually quite pathetic.

I imagine that I'll be making quite a few of these "talk-down-the-psycho-tin" posts between now and the day I meet Barry Andrews. I mean, why can't I just be a squealing brainless fangirl with no fear in my skin cells? Why do I have to be fascinated with someone who scares the bejeebus outta me? Why can't I just be fecking normal?

Before the trip, I'm asking the doctor for some nerve pills. ::firm nods:: Yeah, that's the ticket.

In the meantime, I'll just make a schlemiel of myself in my journal so as to avoid it when I come face to face with....him.

Yeah, he'll put me at ease, then kill me in my sleep.

I'm not feckin' normal, I would turn into the Village Idiot everytime the boy I loved for an entire year was anywhere near me. It was like someone threw a lit match inside me everytime I sensed he was close by. He presence consumed me. I was fucking 35 when I all of that shit started! Not a damn teenager, sheesh!

And he isn't all famous and fabulous like Mr. Barry A! Plus, there is one person Mr. Andrews will think a bigger schmiel than you, ME, remember the email I had you forward asking him to do "Another One Bites the Dust"?
He probably thought, "Geeze, that bird is barking mad she is!"

Naaaah, not at all! What I need to do is sit down and write about my B phobia, so all and sundry will understand how deep my madness really goes.
From: [identity profile] durgablue.livejournal.com
Yes, share...wow, I predict your meeting with B will be radical, in a good way.

The boy? How'd that turn out???

And who's Wyatt?

And where can I get a life?

^_^

... as far as normal goes, I wouldn't know ...
From: [identity profile] durgablue.livejournal.com
The boy? Well, suffice to say he didn't exactly feel the same way. And I, am not the same person that I was as I know quite a bit more myself.

Normal=???????

Sounds to me like you went through kinda what I did with The Harpist. We need to sit down sometime and engage in Primal Scream therapy.

I don't think his girlfriend will fancy that at all.

DOH! Hrmmm...
Maybe he has some hot friends? ;)

LOL

Welllll, I'm not looking for any sort of romance with B. Never have, really. The fascination is very different sort.

Well surely he has some hot musicians friends who can sweep you off your feet and move you to Fort Lauderdale...er.. England... mmrrrrrmmm. =D
