31 ☼ VIDEO

This is a very important week for me. My birthday is in just two short days, which of course means I'm going to throw a party at the Tool Shed. If you're cool, you're invited. Certain invitees know who they are, other will be considered after a case is made to me. Make your best argument and I will decide your fate.

Also, this weekend is prom, which is of course this social event of the year! This year, since a certain individual decided that rotting in prison is preferable to having a semi-decent social life, I'll be escorted to the prom by Mister Fitzwilliam Darcy! [Wait... does he know this yet? YOLO.] Yes, you're allowed to be jealous. He's a total stud.

And while I have your undivided attention, I'm looking for a fascinating subject to profile in the next issue of City Lights. If you're an interesting person, you should totally talk to me and tell me why you're awesome and deserve to be interviewed for the magazine. Boring people need not apply.

Is that why you don't want to go? Because of your break up?

Are you saying you didn't have any fun at all?

no, of course not. I just have

look, Jess. I have other things to do instead of going to some dance.

Eating dessert doesn't count as other things to do.

this isn't Clueless.

This is real life, Jessica! And prom matters in real life!

I don't even know how to respond to that statement.

Just think about your life choices. And when you're done doing that, we can pick out a dress.

pass.

You're going to totally regret this when you're like 80.
