i say do it
gemma
champion coffee >greenpointhad dinner w vanessa and jake (rad dude that runs sh*t @ BULLET, the only mag worth perusing these days) at GEMMA. it was quite fantastic. i despise popular manhattan "hot spots" where you know you'll have wait 45 mins to sit and they are snots at the hostess stand... (REALLY bitch - all you do is control when and where i sit/dine. wait, ok, i guess they do have me by the_____). BUT if you eat between 6:30-7:30 most of the cools haven't arrived yet, bc come on- cool people don't eat dinner before 8:30 or 9. we had a meat & cheese plate (murhahahah jake and i did bc v is a veg) an artichoke salad that was great; thin shaved rather than the chubby artichokes i was expecting. and v and i shared a side of spinach (cooked perfectly) and eggplant mezzaluna or some shit. it was soooo tasty. it was like a veggie lasagna w some of the best tomato sauce i have ever....
CHAMPION COFFEE was had this am which i haven't had in months bc i used to meet v there when she had no car.
that is all.
carry on

a chill weekend but some stuff to report on none the less
friday am started w a 9am visit to studio 54 for dancing, drugs and recklessness (or a 9am meeting in the city near studio 54)
friday night I hung out w mr s on the couch and watched fast and furious (where upon I coined the term 'fat & furious) I also watched inside man w denzel and clive own (good flick)
saturday I had the amazing and standard teddy's brunch where I ordered french toast for desert. walked the bk hood and took hipster pics; then stayed in w cc and watched election (bc he'd never seen) and straight chilled. oh and my fellow nashvillian corey played in the band for JACK WHITE on SNL!!
sunday we ventured into new brunch territory and tried betto on n 8th (its right by teddy's so I felt like I was cheating a lil). the food at betto was hipster chic and kinda pricey but it was delish. I had the arugla and spec flatbread w 2 frida eggs (everything was cooked perf) the bloody mary was phenom and had some magic dust in it that got me hyper drunk and spurred on a mini (sunday) bar crawl. we downed beers at rat bar on n 5th and bedford and not sure what got into me on a sunday but the beers continued @ 1018 manhattan where we played scene it? (yes c whooped my arse). OH, and we had to kick a homeless squatter out when we got to my place (but I snapped a pic of him first).
happy monday

v day words of wisdom
my fear in life is the below. none the less zach's prose is amusing....
When you first find love it makes you skip to the post office or wink at a German shepherd. Sometimes, if you’re lucky, you will do both at the same time. You have met a person who shares your love for Rufus Wainwright and you wonder how the light and your love have coordinated a meeting to illuminate her so perfectly.
But after a while, out of nowhere, she’s clipping her toenails and eating a corn dog at the same time and it makes you wonder what the motherfuck happened. The laughter is replaced with discussions of pubic hair on the soap—even the liquid soap. You’ll find yourself asking things like, “Why do you like Lou Dobbs so much?”
You start to resent that she likes to spend her evenings alphabetizing the coat hangers. She tells you that you have dandruff in your beard and you tell her that her mustache is coming back. The only time you hold hands is when you’re both reaching for the Ketel One at the same time. You know she secretly visits Shia LaBeouf’s fansite and she is aware that you have no problem sneezing into an old sock. The caked-on, filthy, Thai-ridden dishes in the sink wait like orphans for someone to take care of them. She tells you that you’re too fat to take up skateboarding. You tell her that her that her armpits look like Ani DiFranco’s when she wears a tube top. When you decide to venture out and revive what little is left of this so-called partnership, there is always that recurring argument about how many times she’s told you that she hates caramelized onions. You confess that her tattoo of whatever Smurf that is on her lower shoulder is bad for dog-style lovemaking. The check comes. You ask her what four percent of $76 is so you can tip the waitress. She says that joke never gets old or funny. You walk back to your apartment where her cats have somehow learned how to roll their eyes at the very entrance of the two of you. She has control of the TiVo, she watches The Bachelor, and you sit and wonder how to get on that show.
That’s how love goes.
