to unwittingly load porn onto my work
computer on at least three different
occasions. I'll never tell how or why.
the other day he was describing what
tornadoes are like, and I was like,
dude, that sounds just like Elana. And
I missed her. She is probably my
oldest friend who I still want to talk
to every day. Sometimes when we talk
about clothes or boys or interior
design I think about how refreshing it
is to be consulting a veritable genius
about such shallow things. It's a
guilty pleasure though, because if you
get to spend time with Elana you
should use it wisely. She's a rare
one. Also, she's very understanding
about people staring at her
(impressive) decolletage.
Elana would hands down win social chair.
or written; she can make a run to the
local bodega for a juice and a
cupcake sound more interesting
than anything which has ever
occurred in your life. Either that or
she is a magnet for crazy people.
knows more words than Webster, but
purposely inserts the word "like" as
much as possible into her sentences to
remain devoid of genius ridicule by her
friends of inferior intelligence. A
worthy partner in both philosophical
debate and bed.
breaks a sweat. she has the hottest shoes of
anyone working in public radio (except
maybe she ties with davia. or is it nikki? I
always get them confused). I have fond
memories of doing radio with her when she
was in providence. funny now that I think
about it, many of the stories either
connected to dead bodies or eating
omlettes...
their time to non-profit work, rock mad styles,
and tolerate me throwing things at them
ocassionally is alright by me. Elana is a star.
4-gotten. remember when we swore to be
the biggest and bestest pixies fans and
jumped up & down in your room cluthing
doolittle til i clumsily knocked over your pez
collection--that was already fortified against
my inevitable hazard of my presence by
being taped to the table--and then we
realized that they had disbanded many
moons ago & we would never ever get to go
lose contact lenses at their shows.
renaissance mistress. and yet she
has the mind of a modern genius.
we used to ride bikes together. i
remember looking back at her every
block or so to make sure she was
ok, as bike-riding was new to new
york her. she said she appreciated
the concern. of course, she was just
saying this to make me feel like a
man. and yes, i'll now admit that i
was only looking back so much
because she was wearing short
shorts and looked really hot that
spring.
she is a partner in crime...that is...the
KRIME OF BEING KOOL.
