About Me:
I very much enjoy eating steak tartare. I'm writing a
novel, but then again, who isn't?
I make posters.
I wear nice things, stay up very late, and am kind to
people. I am always making, writing, or doing something.
I also make I Love Karl Rove which has resulted
in festive chats with those nice lads from the US Secret
Service! Hi, boys!
I have a gorgeous rabbit. Her name is Claudette. She lives with me, two smashing dogs and my even smashing-er Gentleman Caller in an exceptionally happy Brooklyn home.

Who I Want to Meet:
Just don't yell at me, pluralize with an apostrophe or
smell exceptionally rank, and we'll likely get along just
fine. And please give a great big damn about *something*.
Activity (mental and physical) - c'est sexy, non?
Also, if you're inclined to think of the the subway as a
dandy place to clip your nails, or don't bother to vote,
please, never speak to me.
And anyone who can point me to a decent chicken-fried-steak somewhere in the five boroughs is my pal for life.
Y'know what else is swell? People who like themselves enough to be warm and kind to others. Cool is cool, but warm is HOT.

world that will knock your socks off.
and then later, your pants. she's
sneaky like that.
bars, shoes, music and everything else, but
instead I'll sum it up thusly: I have never
hung out with Kat and had a bad time.
What a way with words, what
fantastic taste, what empathy and wit!
Whenever I'm with her I feel like I'm
discovering something new,
something outrageously cool.
cuisines of more restaurants, the
ingredients of more cocktails, the
names of more emerging novelists and
burlesque artists, and the particulars
of more casinos, tattoos, buffets, and
tiki lounges than anyone I know. She
also has more factual details at the
tip of her tongue than most anyone I
know. In fact, most people I know
don't know anything about many of the
things in which Kat's devotedly
interested. She's my pipeline to at
least a dozen curious worlds. And if
there were any justice in this world
she'd have won that Iron Mixologist
competition.
evening (some of which have lingered
unto lovely desert sunrises) in our
mecca of Las Vegas. Whether chilling
with a Mai Tai and discussing the finer
points of pork products by the
Peppermill fire pit, sucking down steak
jerky at Lotus of Siam, crusing the
neon in a Mustang coinvertible, giving
cocktail face at the Baccrat Bar in the
Belagio, consoling your broken heart by
the Mirage pool, handing out quarters
for the mechanical pony at the Double
Down, charming the beauteous bartender
boys of the Venus, digging Tom Jones at
the MGM, or just havin' a laugh at the
expense of the lumpen fannypackers on
the Strip, Kat's the one to do it all
with. And she works just as well in
other locations too (though the
Pennsylvania tests are still pending
completion). And i haven't even
mentioned her pasties collection....
Wow, I can't believe it's the end of our
senior year already. It's been a totally
rad 4 years and you and Ashley were my
total best friends. I'm totally going to
miss all the good times we had in high
skool. Like the time we tricked that
band geek girl into think Chad was in
love with her and we got here to go to
that hotel, strip naked and wait for
Chad with the lights off. Then we took
her picture and put up flyers around the
skool. That was totally funny! It was a
bummer that her dumb friends said that
it was our fault that she didn't come
back to skool and had to go to that
hospital but they are totally jealous
that we are popular.
Anyway, this summer is going to be the
best. We should totally hang out and get
waysted at the golf course! Have fun
next year at community college and I
know I'll be brining in the Benji's when
I work at my dad's car dealership
answering phones.
Best friends 4 evah!
Brittney
my friend... and ohhhhh, her prowess in
the art of HAM HEADS.
nothin' compared to Kat.
keep up with Jesse James and Janine
Lindenmueler's tempestuous relationship.
