Who I Want to Meet:
People who can inspire both my well-intended sarcasm and my kindness. Only one of the two does not work. I really enjoy meeting people who can teach me something new or how to appreciate something I've never appreciated before.

so I'm privy to many, many things that
I can't share. Unless, of course,
you're willing to pay!
watering holes and towns, the worst
taste in guys and you know she's
figuring you out while you bullshit
about yellow vs brown on your
dog...which is scary until you realize
you want to let her into your head.
She's no Dr. Lector (grrr 'Hello,
Clarice!') but she dresses like a
nurse when she tries out for porny-
porns. Oh and we love her too.
Allison. But I can say a few. She's
really lucid and incredibly easy to
talk to -- talking to her you just get
the feeling that she just has a knack
for understanding things. She cares
about people a lot and is extremely
good at knowing when to listen and
when to offer advice. I've never known
anyone else who is such a perfect
definition of what you would want the
rest of the world to be like. Oh, and
I met Allison at a debate tournament
as well, so I guess the lesson is that
if you want to meet great people you
should go to a debate tournament.
j/k... but i figured i should put that
since everyone else did. lol!
i officially met Allison at Mardi Gras
last year. See, i was the arresting
officer. i swear... red heads! it took
like 5 of my best guys to get her
under control. she tells evvvveryone
she moved to New Orleans to teach for
america. um yeah. those of us down
here know better. she's notorious.
she's been coming down here for years
(even as a wee tike) and causing
trouble. we always knew it was a
matter of time before she set up
permanent residence in this city of
sin.
j/k.
seriously, i met allison when she was
a contributing writer for a television
show i produced. that's not a lie.
she rocks. and that's not a lie
either.
