  • Wrapping up boyf's bday weekend. Drinking with mum-in-law, silly
    backstories, secret gossip. Exhausted. #
  • This was a 19-taxi weekend. I don't mind, except for those solo rides
    across the Williamsburg Bridge. Too much introspection. #
  • "This isn't a party it's a whole lot more. We've had enough of this blind man's bluff. You've kept us int he dark for long enough." #

  • Can't remember the last time I woke up to a flat full of post-club boys. #
  • In the middle of a hot photo shoot. Perfecting my turn-and-smile (sort
    of like the bend-and-snap) #
  • The party train keeps chugging… last night I discovered Sugarland is
    much more tolerable when you arrive at 2am. #
