Thanks to everyone who came down to Barnes & Noble Astor Place last night. It kicked major ass to see everyone there and all I could think while I was reading was OH MY GOD THIS PIECE IS SO BORING I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M READING THIS even though my mouth was shaping all the words on the page. In my head was ABORT MISSION ANNIE ABORT! ATTENTION THIS ESSAY SUCKS AND WHY ARE YOU STILL READING IT? WHY DIDN’T YOU PICK A DIFFERENT ONE? I can blame that on Mr. John Morrison. That’s the last time I let him make a decision for me. The Croc Lounge was fun too–so much free pizza. The whole ironic part is that I go there all the time and can’t really eat pizza because I’m a lactard, but I enjoy others enjoy free pizza. I mean come on! It’s free! Very few things are free. Sometimes toothpicks are free, I guess.

My friend Erin is opening a new store on the lower east side, called Clarabella and I visited a few days ago and bought a SWEET bracelet. I mean it’s one of those things that you see and you are like OK I guess I’m buying it, it’s not really a choice. Anyway I looked at a necklace that I was sweet on and decided it was too expensive and didn’t get it. Erin, of course, being the horrible person that she is, gave me the necklace as a gift. AND THEN I PROCEEDED TO LOSE IT. I am such a dick, seriously. I looked everywhere and it pretty much harshed my mellow because I felt like such a jackass. Like hey Erin, thanks, your gift is so awesome I’m going to lose it now.

But then wait, WHAT’S THIS? I FOUND IT ON THE FLOOR AT THE BAR. So, guess what? I am a winner. winner = me. I am very happy now.

I’m headed off to the Bay Area to read in Oakland and in San Francisco. If you’re reading and you live in the area, stop by, say hi.
