DIVORCED IS A PERMANENT STATUS AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
When you get divorced, you want it over. You don’t want to be married anymore, that’s the point. You feel tarnished, socially embarrassed and like a failure, but that’s your opinion and you really don’t want anyone else’s. I find that forms remind me of my divorce. I went to the dentist recently and the [...]
MY STANCE ON MARRIAGE
I remember the first phone conversation I had with my ex-husband. It lasted all night. He asked me if I had a “wedding book.” “What’s that?” I asked. “It’s what girls keep to plan their dream wedding.” “Ha, I don’t have one of those. I’ve never really thought about that.” Something about that question – the [...]
SEX AFTER DIVORCE. LOTS OF OPTIONS.
Is it common for a newly divorced woman to want to bang another chick? Like a Halloween costume: “Maybe I’m gay and I don’t know it. Let me try that on.” I’m sure lesbians love a girl who doesn’t want a girlfriend — only a soft pair of lips, perky breasts and a clean-smelling vagina. Shit…I sound like [...]
GOODBYE PORN. (AT LEAST FOR NOW.)
A few weeks ago I realized I stopped watching porn. When I look back at my life I have a tendency to romanticize the past. “Huh, I miss those days,” I wistfully sighed. I thought back to my nights or early mornings alone in my Queen-size bed in my one-bedroom in West Hollywood: free, single [...]
REALISTIC
“Do you think I’m a pessimist or an optimist?” I asked my boyfriend last night. He paused and answered, “A little of both.” Not the answer I wanted to hear. I was always regarded, or at least self-regarded, as a heart-pounding idealist. A girl who dreams big and believes anything is possible. I felt defensive. “It’s [...]
“THE WEARY KIND”
I saw Ryan Bingham in Woodland Hills today. For those that don’t live in Los Angeles, that’s “The Valley.” Yup, people go there. I drove home after meeting my boyfriend (who works in Woodland Hills) and played “The Weary Kind” from the Crazy Heart soundtrack. Ryan Bingham wrote the song with T Bone Burnett — [...]
WHAT THE HECK SHOULD WE TALK ABOUT?
So many interesting things happened in the last two weeks of not writing the blog. 1. I made out with some random guy from the Republic of Georgia at a strip club. Yes, I realize that makes me sound like complete whore, but I can honestly say it was very innocent. Well, not very innocent, [...]
WHERE DOES ONE START?
Where do I start after not writing on this blog for two months? I’ll start here: I am in Los Angeles. I arrived here last night on Virgin Airlines from Boston at 7:50 pm. My ex-husband nicely picked me up at the airport. He had my car while I was gone, and I promised him [...]
FINDING HOME
I got nervous when my 90 year-old building manager walked into my apartment. Was I allowed to paint? I’d been painting the whole day with my good friend Svenja. The walls were gleaming white and I hated them, but the idea of painting them felt worse – just horribly exhausting and pointless. I couldn’t bring [...]
I HAD A REALLY BAD DREAM LAST NIGHT
I woke up at 3 am last night. My back was sweaty and I couldn’t fall back asleep. I have a girlfriend staying with me and we sleep in the same bed. I tiptoed into the living room and grabbed a long jacket from the closet. I covered myself up on my leather couch and [...]
LESBIAN HOPES DASHED BY EXPERIENCED THERAPIST
(There are so many things wrong with this picture. Not only are my graphic design skills horrible, but I’m sure I’m offending lesbians. I found this underwear when I Google’d lesbian images. I went into Photoshop and added the “not.” I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I’m working on it in therapy.) “I [...]
THIS IS MY WINTER SONG TO YOU
Last night, I wanted to text my ex-husband, “Do you remember how we used to run around the Central Park reservoir? I miss that.” I didn’t send it because I know that I’ll never get back what I want: a desire to want to be with me again. It’s not that I think we should [...]
