I dunked the water on myself from a gallon jug like I was in a trashy Duran Duran video and of everything I took off, I kept my combat boots on, because it was a look. I just took those contact sheets to the copy shop and made myself some pages with cutouts so I could write on them.

I thought I wanted him forever. I can’t believe I ever sent anyone a 72-page letter. I can’t believe he didn’t call the police and report me as insane.
