Fate Won't Take My Fare Card

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

I’m on the bus. And guess who just got on after me? No, not that one. My psycho-bitch ex-roommate from college. See her? She’s that one there. No, not that one. That one. The one with the slightly crazed look in her eye. No! Don’t stare! Shit. Did she see you? Okay, so first of [...]

ISO Guy with Dentist Pen

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

I’ve been to see “He’s Just Not That Into You.” After having read the book and immediately returning it years ago (I was deep in denial when nearly half the book pointed out that my long term relationship was with someone who apparently wasn’t “that into me”), I was prepared to hate this movie. In [...]

Totally Effed

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

A couple of months ago, my lady doctor recommended I switch up my birth control. Last summer, the one I had previously been on for 10 years let me down, resulting in my fainting on public transportation and an unfortunate Visit that lasted for THREE whole weeks.

When you go to dinner with your best friend and effectively polish off about 2/3 of the bottle of Sauvignon Blanc you brought, then walk a block to Second City for the show you had bought tickets to for you and your (then) long distance boyfriend, only to down another two glasses of wine while [...]

Breaking the Fourth Wall

Friday, February 6th, 2009

They say when one door closes, another one opens. Today, I’m crossing the threshold, I’m spurring ahead, I’m (GASP!) meeting my first bloggy friend! Miss Big Time Fancy and I are going to down some drinks, because as you already know, she had the “L” bomb dropped on her the other day by AWOL and [...]

What I Cannot Say…

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

I’m awake in my bed tonight, thinking of you. Do you think of me? Of how in a mere handful of hours you were to board a plane to see me? Or do you instead try to forget? Do you already? Throwing your hands in the air with a shrug, do you minimize, belittle, the [...]
