and I finally got to say, "[Sketchy dude,] I'm not talking to you because I don't think my BOYFRIEND would appreciate it." I've wanted to be able to use that line of deflection without lying for years, haha. (In fact, random story time: I once used to carry around a picture of my best guy friend in my wallet and tell this creepyish guy in my freshman year world history class in high school we were dating so he would stop asking me out. hehe)
In case you were wondering, he seemed taken aback for a moment, then looked at me again and said, "You right, you right. I wouldn't either...*he keeps talking but by this point I have walked away*"
Inside the mind of a kind of quirky, pretty stubborn, way too opinionated, twenty-something, heteroflexible Black female newly employed up-and-moved-to-DC Princeton GRADUATE who's just trying to sort out her life. An uninhibited celebration of all that is me, this blog is an exercise in self-discovery and live-with-your-heart-wide-open-ness. Though I make respect a habit, I will not always be politically correct, and I believe in the power of making audiences uncomfortable to inspire change.
