6:23 PM Hilarie: hi
me: yo, how's it going?
6:24 PM Hilarie: good
im a lawyer now
in LA
me: good, the world needs more lawyers
Hilarie: hows nyc?
me: pretty yankeeish
Hilarie: am i your new muse?
6:25 PM me: oh, you've always been my muse
I mean, no
Hilarie: oh well. i dont buy any of your books
me: most people don't
Hilarie: maybe you need a muse
like me
me: maybe so
Hilarie: and not like katherine reynolds or mirna
6:26 PM me: does that involve sex or royalty payments?
I don't think I've ever had a muse
Hilarie: its just someone who inspires you
like scarlette johanson to woody allen
6:27 PM me: I thought Woody Allen was inspired by underage Asian girls he adopted
Hilarie: good point
in any case..
me: how's LA?
Hilarie: come to LA
me: I've been
Hilarie: okay. wish i had more friends here
me: it's terrible
6:28 PM Hilarie: hows living with caleb?
me: they'd be doucebags anyway
Hilarie: you just couldnt keep away..
me: good, he's still an alcoholic
Hilarie: all you texas kids are
i had to leave
me: I know, right?
Hilarie: brice, buster..
brice has a new ugly girlfriend
so i guess hes not gay
6:29 PM me: speaking of which
Are you aware that Brice has a tattoo of a Lutheran cross on his arm?
Hilarie: yes
disgusting
me: okay
Hilarie: are you aware that brice goes to lutheran church every sunday?
me: I just wanted to make sure that you and Mirna both knew that and felt bad about yourselves
Hilarie: and is part of the young republicans in texas?
me: I assumed
6:30 PM Hilarie: he turned super conservative, and mirna and i had nothing to do wiht it
if anything, we all stayed him from that path
betty won, though
me: yes, but that means you contracted crazy via your respective vaginas
so, you'll probably turn into Lutherans
6:31 PM and get posters of Winston Churchill for your rooms
I just lost a gig editing someone';s book because this person doesn't believe that I'm the real Barrett Brown
6:34 PM Hilarie: no way
thats hilarious
why
me: I think the guy is crazy
6:35 PM Hilarie: well you are a little crazy
me: I'm not sure, he just sent me this message 20 minutes ago
Hilarie: maybe he was expecting someone else..?
send me the message
did he meet you?
me: no
Mr. Brown,
I did a little research and I find it hard to believe you're who you claim to be. If I'm wrong you have my apology. In either case, I'll be more comfortable going with someone else.
Thanks,
Doyle
6:36 PM Hilarie: weird
tell him you dont feel comfortable working with paranoid freaks
want me to email him as your lawyer?
me: nah; apparently, he had already fired several other editors
6:37 PM so I probably dodged a bullet
how's the lawyering going?
6:38 PM Hilarie: good
6:40 PM i work in a tall building
have a secretary and paralegal
get paid a lot
wear sexy outfits
do work
its good
me: I wear sexy outfits too
6:41 PM Hilarie: oh ya?
me: but I make very little money and live with Caleb
Hilarie: does caleb stay home and cook for you?
me: afraid not
Hilarie: at least you have a boyfriend..
me: I know, it
it's very comforting
Hilarie: i am relationship incapable i think
6:42 PM me: haven't you been in several long relationships?
me: she was a nice girl, though
me: I may be exaggerating a bit
Hilarie: thats a problem
Hilarie: ya
Hilarie: ah
me: and I don't
me: she likes to go to art shows and do things other than drink and have sex
Hilarie: whyd you breka up
me: I just broke up with a chick I'd been dating for nine months, and that was by far my longest relationship, by like 300%
me: I see
Hilarie: anyways they always end after a year at the longest
Hilarie: what is long?
me: I see
Hilarie: they all start to become the same thing
Hilarie: another one will come along
Hilarie: oh well
me: nah
Hilarie: you do?
