Me: Boyfriend, do I look like a man because I’m not wearing jewelry? Boyfriend: Of course not, that’s ridiculous. One hour later, as I walk out of my beloved Polk St. Walgreens Panhandler: Spare any change, sir? I mean, ma’am…. Me: Yeah, no.
Dear Internet,
Thank you for teaching me how to hack my printer on the eve of the due date for all my grad school applications.
I’m thinking I’ll get another 500 pages out of my toner cartridge, so take that Brother, you manipulative fucker you.
Love,
Me
Things I have done during the Aughts
Herded sheep on horseback
Flown in a helicopter
Graduated from high school and college
Called Boston, Manhattan, Brooklyn and San Francisco home
Said goodbye to my dog
Worked: as a first officer on a sail boat, at Google, at a tech PR firm and for the family business
Driven across the country (four times)
Lived alone and in sin
Developed a serious interest in sporting clays
Applied to...
The Aughts in Firsts
First prom
First love
First apartment
First power suit
First job with health insurance
First time to San Francisco
First foray into home ownership
First business trip
First KitchenAid mixer
