Via dangerous monkey, seems that ms Heather Havrilesky has a blog up and i am so thrilled. My wednesdays have been been so bland since filler died. If you’re not sure where i am, it’s proabably there – - >
Also, the “festival” was really just “all the bars are crowded and everyone’s drinking more than they should”. But it was fun anyway. The first sip of the new Noveau was too sweet and too strong but down somewhere in the bottom of the second glass it started to taste might-ee fine. Needless to say we abandoned the ordering-by-glass charade and leapt into the bottles. Today i am appropriately headache-y, queasy, my tongue is stained purple, and there is bugundy ground into the chapped spots on my lips. Red wine hangover : Blech.
Also a friend of Dori’s who just moved here came out with us, and she was quite cool. As per custom a table of three new yorkers, even in a bar in paris, even during a wine festival, even having barely met, immediately began comparing our new york rents. It’s good to know that there are certain natural laws that just cannot be broken.
