did you like coming to New York? tell me about it.
you asked me this 12 months ago and the question seemed big until now. i liked new york. a lot of things happened, some nice and some funny and some sad.
the first weekend i stayed in midtown with a special lady. we went to morton’s steakhouse, a place we’ve gone to for so many years that we’ve forgotten why. i went to the amish market and brought fresh food and set up camp in riese’s living room. riese and i we got a manicure like we used to and then i left for karma, i smoked hookah and took the subway to brooklyn for the first time.
most mornings i woke up early most mornings to go to the deli to get bagels and ice coffee for riese & laneia & sarah & alex because I didn’t know how to express what being there meant with words. we had a team brunch. i had to leave early, riese turned to me and said ‘you are so sketchy’ and it made me laugh. i’ve forgotten many things about that trip but I’ll remember those few seconds for the rest of my life.
Rodeo Disco happened. Those bartenders happened. At the Pride parade I said goodbye to a friend and sat in a gutter and cried. late one night laneia, sarah and I met a nice guy on the subway, we went to a bar near his hotel at an hour when you probably shouldn’t. we sat on those stools, laneia explained what an IPA was and i told her about my life. we finally found the taco truck. I couldn’t pronounce quesadilla but I tried.
How come you wrote fewer articles than the others? Do you do behind the scenes stuff?
yep yep. i coordinate things between contributors and editors. so like, the middleman who makes sure the orange juice gets to your grocery store in a cute carton with the right price? that’s me. except i don’t put it in the cute carton and i don’t usually determine the price, necessarily. but i get it to the person who does. and sometimes i talk about like, what kind of new orange juice we wish we had on the shelves. and sometimes i make the orange juice myself but not usually.
go tell your sexytime avec hot redhead dream time lady to get at me, because i am very real.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHO YOU ARE
So…I have my first crush on a girl. She has a girlfriend. She still flirts with me. Normally, I would totally just go for it…but I’m really nervous that I’m going to be terrible in bed! I’ve never had sex with a girl before.
i would be way more worried about the girlfriend than being terrible in bed. i mean, apparently it doesn’t bother straight girls, you nawmean?
I have a crush on basically the most inappropriate target ever (underage sister-of-a-friend straight girl). How do I stop thinking about her?
we’re making a drinking game for people like you
What was your favorite book as a child?
i used to really like this book about a pony named fritz? it may or may not have been illustrated by jan brett, and it may or may not have been called “fritz and the beautiful horses?” i think it also made me cry/may have traumatized me forever though

i’m going on a school trip abroad this summer. what are the chances of any of the 7 other girls being a homo, because this feels like a good time to lose my vcard.
statistically speaking, i feel like it’s 0%, but also? just make your own homos, you know?
