You might think
that Amarice must've had some really cool parents, for giving her a cool long
name like that. But the truth is, I don't think they're very cool at
all -- what kinds of parents would disown their own daughter? Certainly
not cool ones, man.
She was born on May 25, 2974 -- and eighteen years later
her parents kicked her out of their house when she was caught with a girl
in her room. Amarice had just graduated high school and was accepted
to NYU -- but since her parents cut her off financially, she never got to
go. She's told me that she would've majored in communications. She
also sometimes jokes that her parents finally got ot buy that boat they'd
always dreamed of having . . . needless to say, she still hurts pretty deeply
about this.
I don't really know that much about her life prior to
coming to the Singing Company, early in 2000, but I think it includes lots
of bouncing around from girl to girl (she's eluded about sleeping with dozens
of women before meeting
Andrea
, but has never given me an exact number) and countless minimum wage jobs.
Her lack of support from her parents is the obvious reason she never
fulfilled her potential -- because I think Amarice is incredibly smart and
talented! She's also especially intuitive and empathetic towards all
people. Sadly, she's also insecure a lot about her aptitude to do her
job. (Which is Andrea's assistant, by the way! And we all think
she does great. :D) I deduced this mostly from one
journal entry
of hers that I found.
She has a sister, Beene, who is seven years younger than
she, and was one of the original members of the New Jersey Singing Company.
I sometimes wonder if Amarice resents Beene for always being in their
parent's good graces; and also for Beene's decision to blow off the chance
to go to college. Last year, when Amarice gave birth to her son,
Adrian
, Beene decided to quit the SC and go back home -- the one place she knew
Amarice could never go.
Adrian's father is Deshon . . . and I'm still not sure
exactly how they worked that one out. But they didn't have sex, it was
totally an artificial process. And Amarice says that as far as she's
concerned, she's not done having babies. But, I'm still not sure exactly
how she plans on making them. :p
Amarice loves kitties, and she has two -- Selene and
Luna. She also has a
sword collection
-- which I happen to think is a pretty strange collection for a lesbian,
don't you? But she loves ancient weaponry and all the kind of stuff
that goes with it.
A few years ago, sexy Amy asked Amarice, via our mailing
list, to explain to us just exactly how she and Andrea got together. Instead
of summarizing the story, her it is in
her own words
. (Amarice and Andrea had SEX the night they MET on a fuzzy RUG in
Andrea's living room! Fishy how Amarice left out that part of her story.
. . good thing I'm here to set the story straight. I mean, um . . .)
