I wish I could describe the feeling of walking alone down 2nd avenue in Midtown to SoHo on an afternoon when the leaves are just starting to turn from green to orange.

		<description><![CDATA[I'm writing this entry on a train ride from Paris to Cannes. Angela and I are attending this year's International Advertising Festival for work. Well, she's here for work. I'm here because I couldn't pass up a trip to Cannes (and my birthday is this week). Right now I'm thinking it's a shame trains aren't [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Angela and I fought on Gchat yesterday. The argument went back and forth long enough to reach out and touch the desperate territory you fall into when part of your mind sadly and quietly wonders how you'll survive without this person, while the rest of it freaks the fuck out and makes you scream.

A: Like eye color? P: Exactly. That's why it needs our care, but others can do nothing. No one can do anything about eye color. Also, I [...]]]></description>

I've tried macarons and Mariage Frères tea, there are twelve empty bottles of wine resting neatly on a table near me, and I have tons of photos of my trinket from Japan with French monuments: I traveled here with a friend who [...]]]></description>
