You know those nights where you get all nostalgic for those days when you were 15 and you totally thought that the Red Hot Chili Peppers were singing your soul, you guys, even thought you had never even been drunk before?

This is where I work now, you guys!
I am so thrilled to be joining the awesome people working in the restaurant office over at Mohawk Bend! It’s a pretty incredible place and—BONUS—it’s about a mile from my house. Best job ever? Yup.

Hey, how’s it going? Mind if I sidle up? I saw you over here sitting alone and I thought, that’s fine. A woman should be able to self-sustain. In fact a lot of women are choosing to stay alone, what with advances in salary equitability and maternity extensions, and I think it’s an important and compelling trend.
I noticed that you were about to finish your drink and I was wondering if I could possibly watch you purchase another one. And, at the risk of being forward, if you could possibly purchase one for me.
What do you do? And before you answer, I’m not looking for a necessarily work-related response. I don’t think we have to be defined by our industrial pursuits, especially when they’re antiquated and hetero-normative.

I have a job interview tomorrow (WISH ME LUCK). It’s been awhile, but I trust my handshake/eye contact/situation-appropriate laughter skills will come right back to me. Meanwhile, Trixie has the right idea (sleepytime, that is)

I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

Mixed Feelings
So you know that feeling when you experience daylight on a weekday for the first time in who knows how long (and the sunshine feels amazing compared to cold fluorescent office lights) BUT the reason you are looking at the sun-dappled sidewalks of Echo Park at 9:55 on a Monday is because you and your place of employment decided to part ways?
Yeah. Mixed feelings.

So how do they trim the grass on Angel’s Knoll in Downtown LA, you ask?
Goats. That’s how. (They’re eco-friendly AND adorable)

People like Coldplay and voting for the Nazis. You can’t trust people.

A 23-year old recent college grad, ENFP (so they tell me), nostalgia-prone yet eternally optimistic. An aspiring writer who spends her weekdays answering phones and preparing court filings--everyone has to have a day job, right?I like nighttime music, things that remind me of London, dark comedies & books books books.
Also, I paint shoes, have an excellent telephone voice & don't dig the oxford comma.
