Here are the only ones I related with: Coffee Organic Food Microbreweries Wine Architecture Sushi Expensive sandwiches Mos Def You notice that 6 of those are food/drink related. I think that the "you're just my white friend with a huge brown birthmark" comment is hilarious. I am so stealing that one.

I think that the “you’re just my white friend with a huge brown birthmark” comment is hilarious. I am so stealing that one.

My white friend told me "You're not black, you're just my white friend with a huge brown birthmark covering her body." Thankfully, I was black enough to be offended by that comment and to tell her that shit wasn't cute. Love it!

I no longer recycle, haven't had a good expensive sandwich, don't live by the water anymore, no longer hang out in indie music stores (I miss Leopold's), I can't drive to wine country (Chateau Elan does not count), gave up my writer's workshop, and can't go to the Embarcadero Farmer's Market just to be seen. Now, I will never give up film festivals, tea, Black friends, Manhattan (every other year for plays on Broadway - so I guess Plays, too), Sushi (now that I have learned to like it), Asian Fusion food (learned to make it at home), Mos Def, difficult break ups, Oscar parties (complete with red carpet), and soccer. Humm. . . I guess I am still pretty white, but I keep it in the closet.
