"You’d think it would be enough to be the Queen of Constance, but then to have to be the queen of the Upper East Side, and then … ” Jenny trails off here, but allow us to finish. And then you have to be the queen of your college sorority. Then you have to be the queen of the Style.com set, and have Derek Blas blog about you. Then you have to be the queen of the trophy wives, and then you have to have the prettiest and smartest children. Then you have to be the queen of New York Social Diary, and the queen of Bill Cunningham’s page in “Styles,” and then you have to hope that when at last you get Alzheimer’s your children don’t turn against you and start selling your possessions and letting you live in squalor on a pee-stained sofa. And then you die, and even then, you can still lose, if everyone stops talking about you.” —From Daily Intel’s epic Gossip Girl recap."

a power drill
… I am newly in possession of one. According to outside sources, I was at a certain bar in downtown New Haven Friday night when I picked it up from an unknown location, handed it to my boyfriend, and said something along the lines of “let’s steal this”. He obeyed, tucked it inside his jacket, and brought it back to my room. No one, including myself, suspected I was blackout drunk, but the next day I had absolutely no recollection of this chain of events. Sooo…either someone is telling me weird lies, or I am going crazy. I’m kind of interested to see what insane feels like.

amazing map discovery #1
My college best friend lives just one block away from the HQ of the Communist Party of the USA! I know what I’m doing next time I’m in the city. Like I said, so useful.

the google map of Manhattan is now in 3D and literally everything is marked. I’m so entertained. How long has it been like this?

don’t worry, I’m still alive. I just haven’t spent more than 3 consecutive days in the same city for about three weeks.

sometimes i watch The Motorcycle Diaries and think how much better it would be if it was just me and Gael Garcia Bernal hanging out and eating tacos and drinking a whole 32 pack of Tecate and then MAYBE we’d make out a little. and then laugh it off. and then do some shots of rum. and then MAYBE make out a little more.
there, i said it. god i feel so much better now.
Ditto.
