I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, darling, you're not old enough to wear a bra.
You've got nothing to hold it up!

Too young to take over
Too old to ignore
Gee, I'm almost ready!
But what for?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

No idea, as people who are looking for cross streets or neighborhoods usually say "What's the cross street?" or "what are you near?"

Maybe I can start humming "American Pie," instead...

I hope I am not horribly underdressed for Charlie Trotter's this evening. I think my outfit was more expensive than dinner will be. If I include my purse.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Will you look at that? Tracey Ermin is in the same art movement as that Hirst guy with the diamonds in the skull.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It seems to me that fancy restaurants are less picky these days about the attire of their customers than they used to be. Bases on my rather limited experience in fancy restaurants in recent years.

Well, all they say they require are jackets for men, and no denim. I am wearing a pretty sweater, pinstriped wool skirt, and expensive pointy-toed shoes. So I guess I'm okay?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I had read something the other day where someone was scoffing at Emin and Hirst and totally thought you were led from diamond skull --> that guy --> Emin.

ETA: that guy was Vivienne Westwood.

I'm guessing that would be OK.

I once went to a place (the restaurant on the 95th floor of the Hancock) and they didn't require a jacket for men, but they... recommended? Suggested? I forget what they said exactly. But I had realized I didn't even have a jacket that fit, so I just went in khakis and a dress shirt and tie and I was fine....

I was, but not directly. I started reading more on modern art in Wiki, and I probably gravitated towards her because she was a Brit like Hirst.

Okay, time for nap in car. Infusion of calories not a success.
