up-dater

my friend, who'll do anything for a free rock show (or not, she's actually busy that night but if it were, say, radiohead or grace jones or bauhaus i bet she'd cancel her plans in a jiff), says her for-the-time-being-fella cooed that he'd treat her like a 'princess' and take her...to chevys.

at first i thought she quoted, 'i'll take you in a chevy,' which would be equally excellent, no?

and reminds me that i once thought it'd be damn funny to set up an internet date and when time came to decide where to meet, what darkly-lit pub or nook for a smooch or under the radar coolio tapas joint far from the clamoring masses, i'd suggest...'oh, there's this place i really like. it's on broadway and fourth, i think, wendy's? you know what i'm talking about?'

at the time it seemed like a grand idea. it no longer quite does.
