I met a poetic, dirty girl

July 18, 2015 by Alex Landeen 17 Comments

What is the first thing that people notice about you?
My beauty. Haha. But seriously I am good looking. It’s true I am a big, but that just means there is more to love. (#BBS) My mountains are some of the best around. I can be a little wild and it is true that my lowlands are pretty marshy, so remember your rain gear and rubber boots. If you are the adventurous type and feel the need to go tromping around in my bush I’m always game, but you should probably bring a gun.

What’s the most important thing you’re looking for in a person?
A sense of adventure. Real people. Rugged, with flannel and gortex and callused hands who don’t mind getting a little dirty.

The 4 things your friends say you are…
Most of my friends live pretty far away, but Hawaii and I stay in touch. Canada is nice to a fault, but a little boring. My ice-sister Russia… we had some wild times back in the Beringia days, but we occasionally have a hard time seeing eye to eye. Russia is one of those places that outside of a party environment is difficult to understand and impossible to know truly, but we probably still have more in common than I like to think. But as far as what I think they would say about me: Wild, fun-loving, dangerous, and strong.

What are you most passionate about?
Remaining true to myself. Being pure. Clean living.

How do you typically spend your leisure time?
My current occupation keeps me pretty sedentary, but I enjoy watching the boats. There is poetry in their movement like the tickling of the first snowfall or the cleansing of the spring runoff. Summer is busy and winter is long and slow but it’s my favorite time. It is the most real, I think. Those who remain are known and familiar. There is a quiet seriousness in the cold twilight that affords reflection. I have to admit, though, it can get a little trying. Times when I feel I can no longer take it I just drop a line to Russia. She’s always down for a good time.

      Are you at work? Does Eric know the type of sites you visit on company time?

    This is awkward. But it’s Bro’s befo’ ho’s so here goes. She’s a cheat. Not only is she a cheat, she likes older guys too. How do I know? Well, it appears that I have sloppy seconds later next month.

    If you think what you two have is for real, let me know and I’ll bug off.

    Fuck no. I’m going.

      Gah! Of course. I should have taken a hint about all the planes, boats, and people (both men and women, mind you), fish, birds, moose, bears etc. all entering and exiting her willy-nilly like some freaky sexy outdoor amusement park. It appears she takes all comers so don’t worry about my silly feelings. Get in there, Mike. Do me proud!

    If this were a caption contest, and it should be, the log photo would be entitled “Clandestine Ruminations of Val’s Harried Mind”

    Ah, yes. Two trips this summer, one for play, one for work. Glad to see that she treated you like all the rest of us!
