*My friend Stephanie has a website now called Drinking Stiff ("Stiff" is one of her nicknames, along with my special nickname for her, "Private Dancer") There's a funny thing up there called the "Parent's Worst Nightmare Interview Series". First in the series is "Kid Out Of Wedlock vs. Gay"
*I found this really old really funny article from ReadyMade Magazine: "How To Seem Smarter"
*I'm really excited about the next Little Gray Books Lecture, because it will feature readings by Starlee Kine of This American Life, and Tom Perrotta, who is basically my favorite working fiction writer right now. Ten thousand of his literary babies I want to have.
*There was apparently a very fun party last night at the Slipper Room that I was going to go to, but after happy hour with coworkers I put myself down for "a little nap" at 8:30. Bad idea jeans. I was awakened every five minutes by Sweet Home Alabama (yes, that's what my phone plays, and you thought it would be Bittersweet Symphony, didn't you? didn't you?) as the people I'd talked into going to the party angrily demanded to know where I was. Julie the Coworker called to get directions and in my halfasleepness I said "Stanton and Ostrich. Ostrich. Ostrard. Orch. Orchard. Stanton and Orchard." So this morning I was awake by 6, hence this early-for-me posting.
*Date My Friend #2: Bryan The Hottie, will be coming on Monday, for sure! So hot girls take pictures of yourselves over the weekend in preparation.
