Scene: My restaurant last night, circa 7 p.m. I am very very busy and the hostess is nowhere near the phone.
Gina: Goodeveningthankyouforcalling[myrestaurant]thisisGina!
Michael Stipe: Hi, Gina! It's Michael Stipe!
Gina: . . .
Michael Stipe: What's your availability tonight for six?
Gina: . . .
Gina: Uh, holdonasecondplease.
End scene.
At least I didn't approach him during the course of his meal and tell him how I saw the "Losing My Religion" video for the first time back in second grade at my friend Sarah's house and it, like, totally changed my life and stuff. I did, however, probably stare a little too much at ol' Mike and Patti Smith getting cozy at their table. Cult Rock Heros, They're Just Like Us! They Eat Panini With Friends!

About Me
- Gina
- Baltimore, hon!, MD
- Hi my name is Gina. I like a lot of things. You will find them listed below, in alphabetical order for lack of a better order, mostly for my own web-surfing convenience. I also like my family, my friends, emotionally unavailable men, visiting people in far away places, taking pictures, dogs, my cats, sandwiches, long walks, Central Wisconsin, buying things on Ebay, reading books very very slowly, stressing myself out to the point of developing sleep and digestive disorders, and pilates.
