A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

Well, enough of the depressing stuff. I said a few days ago that I would attempt to write about the guy that I'm currently seeing- but I don't even know that "seeing him" is the right way to describe it. We're not boyfriend and girlfriend, we aren't "dating;" I don't even think we're "together." There's really no way to accurately describe our relationship to one another.

Today when I was leaving work, I was rushing to catch the train. I tried to rush through one of two tills that were open, both of which were blocked by a very large black woman rummaging through her handbag- not... Sign in to see full entry.

Hey again. I'm writing this in response to a comment Psycho.Skinny made on my "comments" page regarding the first entry I wrote, on July 28th. As always, I love getting comments and questions from other people. I'll quote Psycho.Skinny here so that you don't have to skip back and forth: "BTW, what kind of writing do you prefer?
