My mom made the dress I wore to junior prom. It was a really pretty dress. So pretty that we have a picture hanging in our dining room of me and my prom date. Every family dinner, Sam sits in on our conversations. We haven’t spoken since he left for college the following fall. The other night while skyping my best friend commented on how weird it was that he was in my dining room. A few...

So, unlimited wine with dinner is not just a thing, it is THE thing here. Garelick milk sucks. Oakhurst milk is like drinking angel tears. In a good way. They don’t have either here, just reminiscing about milk. Here you don’t even have to refrigerate milk which makes me nervous so I do anyway My friends put me in charge of walking someone home because I looked the most...

some things i think

that song We Are Young by fun. could have been good but it’s really just not. the time change here is kind of nice when you get home from the bars and can at least read the live tweet of the bruins game. shameless is one of the most interesting shows on tv right now. i’ve confirmed that my roommate is a racist, but tonight she drunkenly tried to educate me about the oppression of...

My roommates still groan when I try to listen to anything that isn’t Katy Perry or Bruno Mars, but I made friends with a bartender and he told me he’ll show Bruins games for me.

Also, at this very moment, I totally regret telling my friends to come pick me up because I’m a little drunk and a little sleepy and Lockup is on.

Fears

I’m scared to eat food sober that I’ve only had drunk. What if it ruins it? I did that with weed and cashews and now I can’t eat cashews anymore. Cold spaghetti with italian dressing, will I still love you when I’m sober? This is probably the reason my parents worry about me not having a boyfriend. It’s also probably the reason I don’t have a boyfriend.

Some boy gives me $100 scotch in a botched attempt to hook up with me and my parents still think I’m kind of a lesbian. Life can be cruel. Good news: tomorrow is Bruins, trivia, and $1 beer night.

My brother has a girlfriend. I haven’t brought a boy home in two years. My parents told me, only half jokingly, that they love me no matter what, even if I like girls. Then my mom reminded me that her favorite student she taught in 8th grade is single and told me to facebook friend him. Christmas Eve my grandma asked me why I haven’t tried to date my brother’s best friend. My...

Holidays are only good after you turn 21 because you can stop hiding the baileys you put in your hot chocolate. You can have beer that tastes like Christmas and then after the Christmas Eve party you get to go to the bar where your friend works so all the beers are basically free. There’s pool and people you actually like and no music that sucks.

I got drunk with my parents (again)

I got drunk with my parents last night and we spent a good hour and a half talking about buying a bar. They were semi-serious. I would be in charge of sandwiches.

Megan Amram: Anniversary →

meganamram: One year ago today, I got in the driver’s seat of a car that my mother paid for and gave me and drove from Portland, Oregon to Los Angeles, California to (at most) flourish and (at least) not die. Ten years ago today, some normal-sized people hijacked some normal-sized planes and flew them into… A little late, but damn, why can’t I be Megan?
