2004

The Lad’s non-party turned out to be a cracking good time, as you can see from the lesbians. Also, champagne! But I might have been an idiot. Happily, I spent most of the evening talking to Kati Vol, whose natural exuberance was perfectly matched by my garrulous drunkenness. I have no memory of our conversation, … Continue reading »

The Wind in the Ward Street 2.0

Maggie and Christine and I were sitting around late last night (I swear there was studying done at some point yesterday evening), and, as is common among young women in the twenty-first century, we turned our talk to the inevitability of homosexuality outbreaks amongst our male acquaintance. “The worst part,” I said, “is that if … Continue reading »

Dear Maggie,

You get a birthday blog even though you don’t read this ever. In your own words, “whoever propels you towards clarity is the key.” Maggie, you never have really propelled me towards clarity.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KIMMIE

Kim, I love you and I am constantly impressed by your bravery and your uncompromising need to make the world a better place.
