It’s August in Manhattan when we both decide to leave. You accept a job in LA and my boyfriend packs my life in a U-Haul and drives it to our new apartment together in Pittsburgh.Â
When I toss this story around in my head, I want it to be a story about New York. A story about how we both loved the city but knew we had to leave. A story about the end of summer when fruit starts to rot on the vine, turns sour.

Holiday Tunes (Even for Holiday Music Haters)
People really seem to dread the expected December soundtrack. If you can relate, I HIGHLY recommend this carefully curated playlist by the one and only Roger Domal. The best versions of all our favorites, many you maybe haven’t heard before! How many days until Christmas?
Favorite Christmas Cookies?
Send recipes - I’m baking this week.
Well done Kels. (Not) a Story best thing you’ve done.
Just a wee suggestion. I seem to remember you being mildly amusing and sometimes you were even quite funny !! Any chance of some mildly amusing stuff ?
Hope you are good
Cheers.. Justin
