The Show Must Go On

The benefit to having neighbors who want to sodomize you? There’s no better time to get out and about! Why hasn’t the USA’s dieting industry exploited this tactic yet?

I went to my first Argentine Chinese food restaurant. I read The Beautiful and the Damned in Ateneo, a bookstore that was converted from an opera house in the early 1900s. I threw on a cocktail dress that’s been hanging dormant in my closet and went to a costume party dressed as a zebra. I picnicked in a park with over 40 people, perfecting my hand at volleyball, tree climbing, and tight rope walking. Then I took a tango class and swirled through the night with a dark Argentine bailarin.

I’m surviving, and I'm only a little fatigued for it. I suppose that when life gives you lemons, you just have to use it with your tequila.
