some short notes from a journal

Various New York City Locations, 2017

 

“I heard a man tell another man that his mom died at a Walmart after choking on a hotdog.”

~

“This was body language and the body doesn’t lie.”

~

“I feel bad about everything, but I had fun.”

-Amanda

~

“This place smells like what I imagine a banana-flavored condom would taste like.”

~

“Some guys have come and stood next to me and I feel found out. The bartender uses a miniature flashlight to create a strobe-light effect. ”

~

“A girl drinks Jolly Rancher soda and I wonder how she will die and if she will have many rotten teeth when she does.”

~

“Alex twirls a strand of her hair and brushes it away from her face. There are many men wearing hats and everyone looks kind of beer drunk.”

~

“There are people moonwalking on the dance floor!!!”

~

“Aggression often marks the desire to seduce.”

~

“There’s a Geisha in everyone.”

~

“If I’m not having sex, I wanna dance.”

-Annie

~

“People having such a nice time that they don’t mind being covered in sand, which would in other circumstances be a bother.”

~

“More than a half a bottle, no, a half a box, of wine in. I gave him my business card.”

~

“Do you ever see people wearing shoes that are visibly ill-fitting and you just want to yell out ‘WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING THAT?'”

~

“The woman across from me rubs the palms of her hands together a few times and then claps a few times. She does this twice.”
