silly girl

Many of the models I work with are creative, intelligent people. Many are artists themselves. I make some assumptions when I correspond with them, write about fairly abstract concepts sometimes. The few who can't handle it... well, let's just say it's better to scare people away early rather than waste time later.

Recently I agreed to shoot with a relatively mainstream fashion girl. This one seems to be helping to perpetuate the dumb blonde stereotype. Either that, or she gets stoned a lot.

A couple of her messages have been semi-coherent. Just now, she messaged and said she had the days mixed up, forgot she will be out of town on Friday so can't shoot then.

I knew that. For that reason, we had scheduled for Thursday. It's right there in black and white, two messages above the one she just sent.

Funny thing is, I don't really care about this particular model. She's cute, but not the type I usually work with, not at all. I would like to test that lens I just picked up, though. Might have to go grab somebody off the street, I don't really feel like waiting til the Chicago trip, which may happen next week or next month.
