roe vs. wade: the right to... date who you want?

the other night, i was in union square, training to bartend in what a good friend of mine describes as a sweathole. i get through it by telling myself how much i love to write and how this will afford me the time. the clientelle was interesting; a mixture of international sailors and preppy happy hour fanatics. sure, i'd rather be working somewhere in brooklyn- or not serving drinks at all, but i was getting along fine until i heard this:

"...and i just told her, i'm PRO-CHOICE. i'd date a black guy."

after that, i just started looking at my watch every five minutes.

Ariele and I are clearly exercising our pro-choice rights.

thank goodness it's constitutionally allowed. i'd hate for you to have to abort your love.
