December 2007
beautiful.
“About ten years ago, I was friends with and secretly in love with an amazingly talented artist. Brilliant and crazy and sexy as all hell. I did press kits for him and hung out with him whenever he was around. (He would disappear for months at a time.) There were shows on the far west side of Spring Street and parties in warehouse lofts in Williamsburg and Long Island City. At one of those...
2007 redux (thanks julia allison)
My 2007 in a word: changing In 2007, I gained a couple of new life-long friends (Yvette, Marie, Maria, I love you), a new perspective, a new hope. I lost a few pounds, a boyfriend, my regrets. I stopped smoking. No more. I started to believe that I deserve to be truly happy. I was hugely satisfied by my decision to move to New York.

Gavin DeGraw's new bar via UrbanDaddy (!)
A good bar with a good band is a thing of beauty. It’s also a tough find. Bleecker Street, we hardly knew ye.

a conversation with a boy.
me: why can't we just hang out more?
him: because we just can't hang out, sarah.
me: what do you mean?
him: you know what I mean.

me: i don't think you should assume i want a relationship.
him: we would either be fuck buddies or in a relationship. there is no inbetween.
WHAT?
