“When one doorway closes another opens.”
It’s not every day I feel I can navigate my way around the world from a watermelon. Only sometimes 😑
Every corner, every street, every building where we walk in NYC has memories, and each day there’s more to add. I don’t understand why people want to put on ugly hiking boots and go wandering around in the woods throwing their arms wide, beating their chests in a self-congratulatory way while exclaiming “Fresh air!” as small bugs swarm around their heads. Give me the city any day, or any night when the air changes to become alluring, whispering the promises of a city night lit by the stars of streetlights and apartment windows.
Sometimes I eat a salad. But never before placing it on the windowsill and trying to make it look romantic.
I totally loved the @selkie show the day before yesterday. It was the most inclusive group of models and guests I’ve ever seen at a show. But this model wins the show- she performed the most incredible, beautiful, powerful dance.
Me, a New Yorker who grew up in 1970s NYC, in an alleyway when someone messes with me 1. I’m cool, you’re cool 2.Do you really want to do this? 3. I took care of that sitch. Buh-bye!
