This tweet is my personal essay about having been a Lucky Strike waitress in the mid nineties. I served penne alla vodka to a slinky Milla Jovovich. Geraldo came alone and ordered a margarita. I still make the staff-meal lentils. The end.

Once in LS I overheard Eric Fischl tell his companion that he was afraid of dying because someone would see his unfinished paintings and know he had no talent. It buoyed me for the rest of the day. I loved that place.
