Questions from Zelda’s weblog:
1. How do you feel about Christmas gift-giving? Did you start shopping early? Do you enjoy going shopping? Can you afford it?
I like gift-giving in general. I shop for Christmas/birthdays/no reason around the year and I enjoy it because I do most of it at thrift stores and it’s the thrill of the chase. There are some things I need/want to buy new, however, but I do some extra writing over the year to pay for it.

Ahhh romance!
Nov 18, 2002 The Story of My Life
You’ve Got Mail: links to journalers who met their partners online.
Me, I picked my partner up in a bar. I don’t think I’ve told the following details of this here yet but if I have, feel free to skip it. Heck, feel free to skip it even if I haven’t.
It was March of 1990. I was at Mean Mister Mustard’s, a campus dive, watching these stupid (white) frat boys dance to Public Enemy’s “Fight the Power.” I said to my friend, K, “God, they’re such white boys!”
Brett (who I had noticed earlier because he has a big nose and I like that in a man — note Alan Cumming has a big nose) was standing kinda near us and he leaned over and said, “Light boys?”
After that sterling opening line I asked him his name and he told me then added suavely (or so he thought), “I like long walks on the beach at sunset.” And I thought, “What an asshole!”
Then later as our conversation became deeper he said, “I have to be honest, I’m a busboy and I live with my parents.” And I thought, “What a loser!”
But I also thought he looked a little like Crispin Glover so I gave him my number and drove him home (he was too drunk to drive) and he called me two days later and then we fell IN LOVE and moved in together then moved to Portland then got married then had a baby then moved back to Columbus and that pretty much sums it all up.
