Always the photographer, never the....photographed

Ha! Would be no more or less futile than my current situation, I’m sure...

This looks fantastic! And oh man, KRS-One was there? Damn.

I feel this!

I did think that might be the case, and I really did give it a solid go for a while. (Even rather successfully, for a bit; the first few months of this year, I was juggling up to 4-5 guys simultaneously.) But frankly, if that were my true wheelhouse, I’d just hook up with local guy whenever, which I haven’t even been…

It drives me nuts — though I know they usually mean well — when people whine back at me, “But you’re built like a model!” That doesn’t mean clothes are easy to find. Models wear exclusively TAILORED clothing! Give me a break!

It is when you’ve been a dancer since age 4, which seriously fucks up your knees/spine/etc.!

I’m a 6' lady, and I feel your pain. As depressing as this sounds, it’s kind of why I’m almost grateful I’m usually too broke to ever buy anything new to wear more often than maybe once or twice a year. It’s almost always some sort of fiasco or ordeal.

I fall in and out of this, honestly. Which I know is silly, since I’m only turning 32 later this year, but I started so late (26), and I wasted so much time loving someone who would never love me back (I’ve since shifted to loving someone who lives 3,000 miles away: AWESOME), and it’s just generally very rarely that I…

It’s been 11 years now, but I did a week in Vancouver totally solo (even staying in a hostel)! It was lovely.

Haha oh god (what have I done??)... It is, but I was 15-16 years old when I drew it (I did indeed start working that young! though I’m fairly sure crappy movie theater couldn’t legally hire me at 15, but they didn’t care, nor did I).

This happens at every movie screening (almost) ever in LA, even for older movies, because all the film nerd tryhards in the audience just HAVE to let the whole theater know that they’re a big fan of the casting director, or whatever bullshit.

Oh my god, this.

I am an old (see: in my 30s), have an old dance injury, and just generally have a tough time with the general “standing around trying not to lock your knees” that goes on for hours at any shows without seating. I’m also a 6' tall woman. But I tend to prefer being further back! And I do always try to be as conscious as…

I love you, thank you, shall continue subscribing to your newsletter.

Yes! Just around the corner from where I stayed on my first NY trip back in April. (I share her first name, though not the spelling, so it made me extra happy to see it.)

Totally understandable! (One of my dearest LA friends has serious social anxiety — it’s involved a lot of difficult job changes for her since we met — and is still trying to find the right medication/treatment cycle for her bipolar-2, so we don’t get to hang out much, but I always treasure any time with her, and…

Oh man, I feel like I already knew you were in the LA area, but then forgot. I am, too!

I agree with Hurrikate, who articulated it perfectly. I think I’ve mentioned it before, but you really are one of my favorite commenters here, and I always enjoy engaging with you so much. I wish I could take you out for coffee and shoot the shit IRL, definitely.
