So, I just got back to LA from a weekend in Boston. I miss it already.
I'll post pictures and maybe a video soon, but here's a couple things I want to say:
1) The Hello...Shovelhead! show this weekend was amazing. My friends are very talented and I was a part of something extremely special. There's no way that I'd be doing what I do if it wasn't for that experience and the people I shared it with.
2) My mom's store is awesome. If you live in Massachusetts, go check out her store in Needham or any of the other locations (I'm also partial to the Newbury St. one-- great designer deals.)
3) One of my all time greatest friends and my (most frequent) Shovelhead writing partner Ryan is moving out to LA soon. I'm blogging this because when I blog things, they become fact.
4) Today is my fake boyfriend Ed's birthday... I made him this to celebrate:
I've missed an early AM plane before. It's a feeling of failure I'm not prepared to deal with this morning.
I went to Boston College and my whole family loves BC Hockey, but I actually got this shirt at the Salvation Army on Hoover and Pico right here in LA:
I am so obnoxious.
1) Yesterday was Kendall's birthday. Tonight we're doing something to celebrate. I love Kendall and celebrations.
2) My Al Jazeera segment will most likely be airing on Friday and if it does, it will be available online. You don't have to live in the Middle East, the UK, Vermont or Ohio to watch me embarrass myself in front of 100 million people! Woo! (Part of me thinks it's exciting, part of me hopes that I get cut out so I don't have to deal with any embarrassing repercussions)
3) My ticket home to Boston for April is booked and guess what?! I'm going to be home for Shovelhead AND Wagandstuff's birthday weekend! And this time he's coming home with me! Strippers and bacon cake for everyone!
Bartender, Bartender, Please Fill Me Up - m4w - 23

To the alluring bartender at Bar 107,
I would never attempt to pursue a bartender. Bartenders are considered 'the unattainable'. Especially one as attractive as you... tall, dark hair, blue eyes, amazing body. You're job is to flirt; that's how you reel in those tips...
However, you pursued me. Quite adamantly, I will say. Perhaps it's because I semi-ignored you the first time I was there- assuming you were just being a typical bartender (we all want what we can't have). Maybe it was because I was there alone (for some reason, women love loners). Maybe it seemed like I was playing it cool (in reality, I never thought you were actually interested in me).
Do not get me wrong... I think you're very attractive. I really appreciated the cute note you wrote on my receipt about my "beautiful smile" and how it "makes you melt". I could use the attention, no doubt. However, I don't need to play games.
You gave me your phone number and we played text-message-footsies for a few days. It was all cute and fun. We made plans to hang out on a Monday, but then you didn't get back to me late that day saying you were too hungover to go out.
The night you introduced yourself to me you said "I hope you come back soon, you're really cute. I saw your ID - I'm a little older than you..." I was excited that you were older because I thought you would be mature and not play silly games. Perhaps I was wrong...
Just to clue you in; the night we met, I was there to DRINK, not to meet people. That's why I was there alone. I was attempting to drink away my broken heart. A heart broken by a girl who played silly games. I didn't need the same thing from you.
If you are sincerely interested, then let's drop the cat and mouse game. If you're not actually interested, fine. You can't break my heart more than it already is.
Bottom line; I want to be able to go back to Bar 107 to hang out. I really like it there. Whether I go there to meet other women or to see you is completely up to you. The ball is in your court.

We both went to Griffith Middle School, met in 7th grade, her name was
Nancy Thurston. She lived accross the bridge in Bell, but went to
school in Downey. We both graduated from Griffith together and with my
rocky childhood we moved away. I am very interested to know how she is
doing, where she is now etc. She should be about the same age. any info
is welcome THANK YOU!!!
I actually think this is pretty cute. My huge, major crush from fourth grade to sixth grade recently found me on Facebook and it was a blast from the past. I nearly died when I saw his name in my Inbox.
That seems to be one of the good things about growing older. The more people and places you go, the more like, almost relieved you are to see a name from your past. Like all those people you met and places you went were some how affected by you being there.
