Down and Out in Beacon Hill

This is the true story of Megan Johnson, a twenty-something writer in Boston. As a child, her parents cut her hair short, which led to her being mistaken for a boy at the grocery store. She was told to "Move along, Son." She was also left on the school bus once. She writes about celebrities for a Boston newspaper, and keeps a work site called The Assistant.
But guess what? This site is completely unrelated to her job, and her views here do NOT reflect her employer, or have anything to do with her day job. Her life consists of falling in public, hugging dogs, and watching youtube videos of bad 80's sitcoms. She aspires to have cable TV someday.

anon: haha Taiwan and Singapore mainly, but I'll be in Tokyo and Hong Kong for a night
my friend is doing a Fulbright over there, and she has me listed as her "common law spouse", so I get to go visit lol
anon: she gets an additional stipend to cover a big chunk of my travel
so I'm essentially going to Asia for about as much as it costs to take a train to New York
It means we can't exactly go to gay bars while we're there since our cover would be blown, but it's illegal to be gay over there anyway, so no big!
anon: also, all the gays and hags going cray over Etta James dying. I just wanna pull a Nene Leakes and be like, "Bloop bloop!"...if any one of them can name a song beyond "At Last", I think I would die from shock
