    Oh so many to choose from like “Asleep” by the smiths or the majority of Elliot Smith’s or Fiona Apple’s songs, but I’d die to Razzle Dazzle Rose -Camera Obscura for sure.

    I have to say I really love this series and hearing about your stories. I never realized how much my curly hair played into being queer. IT REALLY DID. AND I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW IT. I’ll make it short…I hid my […]

    So Cook didn’t die? I think I remembered the last episode of that season wrong.

    As much as I love Naomily (which a whole lot), I excited to see Cassie again the most.

    I usually put Disaronno or rum in most of my baked goods. It didn’t take me much convincing to run to my kitchen and try your recipe after I read this (and drink whiskey at 1pm). Like two minutes after I read this. Thanks!

    My mind went to Mini bottles of Grey Goose, but that’s only because I like vodka. Also, geese are really mean, not worth the 10 bucks.

    I had to pause my reading of this to tell you something irrelevant: Every time I read “Somer and Donna”, I think of that SNL skit where Cheri Oteri tries to get people to say “simmer down now!”.

    I so want to apply for this because I’ve published a bit of writing and I have ALL the time in the world, but re: “be hilarious”, I fear my deadpan/sarcasm will not read well on the internet.

    Kiki makes me think of Scissor Sisters, but I think their definition is different.
