kiss me now that i’m older
Whatever happened to The Strokes? I’m still waiting for Fabrizio Moretti to become my husband. Oh, the cruelty!
I love this song. It reminds me of pre-parties at 302. Drinking some kind of Hype Energy Drink/Vodka combination.
And then the night would evolve into this…
Circa 2004…EGADS!

midweek shenanigans
I was on my way to meet Binnie for dinner at Max’s when I felt the tingling vibrations of my phone. It was an unrecognizable number with over seven digits. An international number. I knew it could only be one person… Victoria!!! Vic is a dear friend of mine who moved back to […]

party girl
The problem with being a party girl is that you are always expected to be a party girl. If you decide to take it easy one night, you will get more boos from your friends than amateur night at the Apollo. Going home at midnight is considered anathema. Declining a round of shots is insanity. […]

I’ve noticed a fashion trend amongst the downtown/Brooklyn boys set: donning rubberbands as bracelets.I first noticed the bartender sporting them a couple of months ago. And then the bearded guy wore a bunch on his wrist as if they were bangles. And now I just see them everywhere. Who started it? And why do boys […]

words, words, words, and variations of them
I was reading a profile on playwright David Ives, and he said that he thinks Aristotle once said that witty people are witty because they are melancholy. This is true.
