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 [...]
HOW ‘BOUT MAKIN’ BABIES?
“Can I go wash your car?” my boyfriend IM’d me from the living room. I was in the next room with the door closed working on an article due Monday. “Who is this?” I jokingly asked. “Where are your keys?” “Thanks honey,” I wrote, “But you don’t have to do that. I can do that [...]
“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 — [...]
MOVING IN TOGETHER. HOLY SHIT.
I connote marriage with being stuck and freedom with being single – having a studio apartment or one-bedroom (maybe not a one-bedroom so you don’t feel that lonely) and living in a metropolis. I’m about to move in with my boyfriend of um…. 3 months. I know what you’re thinking. Though I love soliciting opinions [...]
THE WEDDING BOX
I have this little joke I tell myself: “I never thought my cats would last longer than my husband.” It’s a quickie, a quick little snicker. It’s really not that funny. I stopped saying this joke to people. I actually stopped talking about the end of my marriage and people stopped asking about it; like [...]
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, [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
GETTING DIVORCED IN A UPS STORE
I feel like I’m on speed. This writing might sound like I’m throwing up on the page, but that’s because I just took two aerobic ass-crunching classes and then a spin class on 5 hours of sleep. Why? Why did I do such masochistic and extreme things to myself? Because my ass is getting to [...]
WHY ARE ALL FRENCH FILMS ABOUT ADULTERY?
I’ve had the flu for the past 4 days. I’ve gone from eating very little and feeling nauseous to eating like an insatiable pig. Starving. Cookie-chasing. So fucking hungry. In one day I must have consumed 7,000 calories. My stomach looks like a 6-month pregnant woman. Jesus. I gotta get over this flu. It’s like [...]
HI I’M RELUCTANT AND I’VE BEEN FARTING AWAY MY TIME AND NOT WRITING THIS BLOG!
God, what a self-damning title. Okay, I HAVE NOT been farting away my time. I moved apartments on the 29th of December, I bought a new car, I cried about my transition and I sorted through boxes of writing, clothes, papers and sad memories. I kept saying, “When I’m all set up with cable, I’m [...]
LET’S TALK PEOPLE
“LET’S TALK PEOPLE” was the the best title I could come up with tonight. I thought of it while walking out of Canter’s Deli a few minutes ago while noshing on some cookies. The title feels very Jewish, and very small-town newspaper, but I like it! So let’s talk! WHY NO WRITE? Q: Why haven’t [...]
