dude so i came home from the party at 3, okay, and the half-indian dude who lives next door to me you know, the buffy stuntman whose dad died on the set of waterworld, his ex japanese girlfriend terumi who cant speak english very well (i wish shingo was here) was curled up outside my door...she was surprised when i came since she thought i was inside...she said desi is not home and shes locked out and she doesnt know when he'll be back, and that "all" her stuff got stolen (desi has kicked her out, i think) since she had put it in one of her friends cars and nowthe friend says its gone, but she thinks the friend took it...she said the friend is black, not that thats relevant to the story but just telling it like i heard it..and that she went to visit another friend in this building but when she came back desi was gone..
...okay now the weird thing is i kept hearing desi's voice coming from his room from the hallway, but she said thats just a tape playing, like an audio recording, that is being used in this documentary he's making (it sounded kind of like an interview)...i first thought he was in there and just like talking on the phone but i kept locking loudly and no one answered and just figured something was being dubbed - he keeps laughing and saying things like "yeah i had to"..dude isnt all this so weird, but i guess normal for my life since its like an endless noir film filled with japanese people (like shingo)...so i asked her if desi ever stays out late like this and she said yeah, he's probably "shooting" like his film, and sometimes he doesnt come back until the next evening (wtf? i mean is it normal for stuntmen-director wannabes to shoot continuously for 18 hours?)...i asked her what her plan was for tommorrow and she said shes going to call her "mexican friend" who works at the airport in the morning, even though he doeesnt get off work like 2.. and that she needs to shower..but she doesnt know for sure when her friend can pick her up, maybe 2 or 3 or later..i asked if she wants to go to desi's in the morning and she said she doesnt know when he'll return, and she only has to use a phone anyway and it seems like she doesnt want to talk to him... i told her that um, i might be busy after 11 or something but of course she can use my phone, and she said she'll go somewhere then..
...so yeah, i let terumi in (what else could i do?!) and she is now sleeping on my couch. she filed a police report for grand theft and showed me the papers. i didn't know what to say. she first checked her hotmail and emailed her "son" in japan for 20 minutes, then asked me if i had conditioner and that she might get up earlier before me and shower since she has "really long hair" (but kim's is longer!). i told her i have shampoo plus conditioner in ONE. i have pert plus.
so yeah, wtf? now i am totally sober (i rear-ended a car on the way home btw, but got the hell out of there as fast as i could) and cant go to sleep, and i dont know whats happening tommorrow, and i dont know whythis audio track of my neighbor laughing and talking is being endlessly repeated next door as his ex who isnt good at english, has no car or other clothes or anything else, is sleeping on my couch. cindy i am only bccing this to you since i thought u might be bored answering phones and eating sandwiches and might enjoy reading about my petty problemz on monday and more importantly because, you're like the last person i saw at the end of the par-tay before i left that i know, and i don't really know if terumi might not wake up and slash me to pieces seizing my kitchen knife as she screams "WATASHIVA TERUMI LONG LIVE YAKUZA DIE CUSO!!" in a couple minutes or something. dude, i saw kill bill TWO times last night and really cant beileve i just let a japanese person in my house, wtf is wrong with me?
oh yeah hey D, i had to tell you that your hot college friend janna stopped by (and brought her hot college-or-maybe-not-college friends hillary and gianna over, who were intrigued by alison stoner), but you were busy "getting busy" (cough) up stairs or maybe rearraging your socks or something. maybe u can call me tommorrow if nothing is going on and you are hanging out with ben (he said he'd remind you) like in the afternoon so i have an excuse to "go somewhere" and therefore tell terumi that i really have to leave, etc ? i mean i kind of feel bad, since i don't know exactly where she is supposed to go anyway..she's kind of homeless, you know? what makes all of this even more fascinating is that the walls here are kind of thin and i have heard a number of terumi's loud orgasms coming from next door over the past few months as desi would rearrange socks with her. either that, or their cat is really gifted

my room isnt a motel
oh and the best part of today was how she wanted me to take her grocery shopping, since she wanted to buy juice with her last $3. i gave her my cranberry juice. my neighbor came here at 3 o clock (since i left a sign on his door telling him terumi is here), says he's still shooting and only came back to walk the dog, and then left. i was trying to say..." um dont you have too get the rest of your stuff from his room" in an effort to make her just go over there but she said "no i dont need it now" and just stayed..aargh!

this is really messed up. basically i think my neighbor exploited this woman for a while and she was just expecting to stay at his place for a while until she found a real job, and so now she doesnt want to go back there ...and yeah hes a total player for having two japanese bitches at once
i told her to go back next door even though my fucking neighbor just left her here in my apt when he came here at 3 and said he only came back to walk the dog. i said you still have your stuff there, you should be able to stay there, the new japanese girlfriend and he arent even there right now, i can try to get the door unlocked through the landlord....she refuses, keeps saying no, no, no. i guess she's really had it with him and never wants to go back
her other "friend" in this building over whose place she went last night told her not ever come back, because she's homeless. which of course she is.
i got a chance to talk to the airport "friend" on the phone - some black dude. he said he only met terumi three weeks ago, and is only getting to know her. he met her through the japanese woman who called here, this woman named riyo, and that i should call riyo and get her to pick terumi up, since she lives close by at sunset/labrea. he said his car is "in the shop," which of course sounds like a complete lie. he did tell me though that terumi was recently living with this mexican "friend," who was married w/ a wife and kid, and who hooked her up with a cousin in the valley - some guy who basically sexually exploited her again, had all her stuff in his car, and then stole it and kicked her out.
she used to be a tattoo person's assoistant here on hollywood blvd but i think she said she quit since that guy was also expecting sexual favors from her.
now she says that when riyo just called her, she said she wouldn't take her in unless terumi performs sexual favors on her husband. this is so ridiculous. i don't know if its true, the airport "friend" doesn't think so, and thinks terumi is just really wary of being exploited again....
i asked if i can drop her off to his place, but he said he is really tired right now and cant take her, and told me to drop her off to riyo's place, and gave me her phone number. then he told terumi on the phone something like "tommorrow"..etc. - basically putting his involvement off - and when she hung up she looked at me and said "i don't think he is my friend either."
she said that other japanese woman is a pimp. and that shes sorry, its okay but she'll go sleep on the street, and she has to go to the store anyway to buy tampax.
i told her no, wait. this woman has three dollars and was literally found on my doorstep last night. is this supposed to be a test of my character or something, to see if i'm a bad samaritan or not? i don't want to think about karmic bonds..
i'm going to call my parents now and tell them the situation in hindi, then i'll call riyo. i don't know what to do

Has she talked about going back to Japan at all? Other than e-mailing her "son", is she trying to get ahold of her family?
