When The Internet & Real Life Collide

Sometime or another you’ll meet the man of your dreams when you’re least expecting it.
You’ll meet him not once, but twice. You’ll be out with your girlfriend, your childhood best friend in fact, ready to spend the evening knee deep in drinks, lipstick, and tunes. You’ll be looking for fun and you’ll be looking for attention. A relationship will be the...

All My Pretentious Ass Wants...
Is a Sunday subscription to the NY Times.
In my head I’d read it every Sunday in my PJs while having coffee.
