Destiny

April 24, 2007

The next time someone tells me that their love was meant to be, out of a fairytale, star-crossed, or gives me any trite, soap opera destiny speech, I’m going to karate chop them in the thorax. 
 Just be warned–I’m on the fucking destiny warpath. 

Incoming

April 23, 2007

The other day, a friend accidentally stood me up for a dinner date.  She has protected access to her building, and the call system rings through to her phone, which was off.  I waited outside her building for 10 or 15 minutes thinking she’d look out and see me, but no such luck.  When we [...]

April 2, 2007

I had an early lunch date with my friend Liz the next day.  Liz was a year younger than me, sweet yet direct, and always sniffing out the latest gossip.  Over turkey sandwiches, I rehashed the drama from the previous week.
“Wait, do you know who Aidan’s date was last night?”
“I’d never seen her before, but a friend [...]
