Boringness!!
First of all, may I apologize for the lack of anything interesting on the site recently.
Jeremy, my webmaster, and I are pretty bored with the layout and trying to make it different.
I do have tons of photoshoots coming up AND a video make-up tutorial for at least one of them, given my camera doesn’t shit out on me.
My Valentine’s Day was amazing, I have the best boyfriend in the world. However, early that morning there was some problems concerning my chronic nosebleeds.
The day started off slightly meh as Wayne (my boyfriend) had to work graveyard from 7pm-3am.
So I just played The Sims 3 World Expansion pack, like I usually do when he’s gone.
As anyone who knows me knows, I’ve had chronic nosebleeds since I was born.
I was supposed to have my nose cauterized when I was younger, but we didn’t have enough money and I’ve just learned to deal with it for the most part.
I accidentally SLAMMED my fist against my nose while trying to open a drink (the bridge is swollen and bruised) and was like “Ah, shit. Nosebleed imminent.”
Little did I know.
This was by far one of the worst and longest nosebleeds I’ve ever had.
It went on for 3 (yes 3) hours. And not only was blood gushing like a faucet out of one nostril, it was coming out of both.
I started to panic, naturally, after about 45 minutes of blood flowing out of me.
So I called my mom freaking out.
Not that she could do anything from where she was, but it calmed me down a bit instead of just being alone in the apartment with the kitty staring at me.
And also for those who know me, I have a very weird…”thing” about taking photos of my injuries (like when I got my wisdom teeth out, broke my toe, fell off a 10 foot ledge and almost broke my ankle, etc…) and amidst the carnage, I decided to break out my camera and document it.
This is all real blood, straight from my nose.
(I decided to put my hands in the picture as proof I was actually there, haha.)
Needless to say there was blood ALL OVER the bathroom, my clothes, my face, the walls, that towel you see in the last picture is no longer pink, it got drenched.
I was in the middle of trying to make the bleeding stop/trying to clean up what I could when Wayne came home.
I walked out looking like I had just come from a murder scene and to my surprise, he had 2 HUGE bouquets of roses for me. I forgot I was bleeding and covered in it for a minute and was just lke “Oh my god!!!” cuz no one but my Mom has ever bought me flowers before.
He dropped everything and was like “OH MY GOD, WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?!” Haha. Then I was like “Oh, yeah, there’s kind of an incident happening.”
He came to the bathroom with me and stayed with me until my nose stopped bleeding, then we both cleaned up everything.
Which took a while.
And he helped clean me off because I was super weak at that point (a super anemic person losing all that blood is not a good thing) and I must have passed out after that because I just woke up around 2pm in bed next to him wondering if that had all actually happened or if it was just a dream.
I got up to go to the bathroom and there was still some blood on the underside of the toilet and some dried blood under my nose, so I was like “Wow. That DID happen.”
I lost at LEAST a pint of blood.I It was absolute insanity.
I have been so weak and dizzy ever since it happened, I almost fainted yesterday but I had him with me and he made sure I was ok.
But onto the happier things, the flowers he bought me, oh my god, they’re so pretty. Red and pink roses and lilies.
And yeah, they really are that vivid and colorful.
(I’m so in love with him, it’s stupid.)
Then he took me to dinner at Il Vicino’s which is one of the best Italian restaurants ever.
Then we went to see “The Wolfman”, which wasn’t as good as I was hoping it would be, but we still had fun laughing at things that weren’t funny to anyone else and snuggling.
Then, since he has to work for a few more days, I came to see my Mom and she had gotten me presents too. HELLO KITTY PRESENTS!
And she got me a really sweet card.
The mushy kind of cards Moms get their grown up kids.
I loved it.
So aside from the blood loss, I had an amazing Valentine’s Day for once!
How about you?
Friday night was also a lot of fun, but kind of bittersweet as Wayne’s best friend and one of the usual people in our circle of good friends, Ian, is leaving to be the touring guitarist for Koffin Kats for quite a long time.
Friday night was the last night we’re all going to see him for a while.
Here’s us being stupid a few weeks ago at Atomic Cantina while a DJ/fake rave thing was going on.
(me, Ian, Wayne)
And his girlfriend is one of my best friends, so he better be good or I will beat him up.
I’m friggin’ exhausted so I’m going to watch a movie and pass out.
MANY new photosets for VanessaAlexandra.com (and other things, we’re messing with the format again) coming soon.
Love and Bunnies<3<3<3
