continuations:

This weekend, at a Chili's
Lindsey and Ami (whom I have just met): [a thoughtful five minute conversation about documentaries]
Me: I'm so excited for the Katy Perry documentary.
Ami: Okay -- do you mind if I ask you -- why do you like her?
Me: [a monologue]

Me: And the whole thing about how she's not a feminist figure because she wears outfits that shoot whipped cream out of her titties? That's the whole point of feminism. That she can wear whatever the fuck she wants and be a valid artist with a point of view and something to say. Pink and cupcakes don't negate your humanity, ya know?
[a pause]
Ami: I could see that. Yeah.

You get to consciously decide what has meaning and what doesn’t. You get to decide what to worship. Because here’s something else that’s true. In the day-to-day trenches of adult life, there is no such thing as atheism. There is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships. The only choice we get is what to worship. And an outstanding reason for choosing some...

”Instead of wondering how to catch a falling star,” he writes, the young people seeking his advice ”ask for introductions to Woody Allen and the doorman at Balthazar, about the hope of meeting Peter Jennings and the name of the restaurant where the editors of the Conde Nast magazines go expensively to lunch.”
