There's a free salsa lesson in the park tonight and I've been practicing the basic step in my kitchen all morning — two left feet, zero shame 😳 tell me, Daddy — would you be my partner, or just watch me trip over my own feet?

San Gennaro starts tomorrow and I couldn't sleep, so now I'm making cacio e pepe in my underwear because the craving wouldn't let go 😳 tell me, Daddy — would you eat what I made, or send me to bed?

I came out to water the roses and somehow ended up on my knees with dirt everywhere and no idea where my shoes went 😳 tell me, Daddy — would you let me stay out here, or drag me back in?

Monday's outfit was supposed to take five minutes, but I've been standing here in my slip holding up the same red dress for half an hour 😳 tell me, Daddy — would you pick for me?

The fiddle player hasn't stopped for twenty minutes and I gave up sitting upright somewhere in the second song — the cobblestones are warm and the bridge is humming overhead and I don't care that everyone else is still standing. Tell me — would you lie down next to me, or pull me back up? 😳

Nobody else is here yet and I've been sitting in his chair for twenty minutes pretending I run this place... tell me, Daddy — would you make me get up, or let me stay? 😳

NYFW starts today and I can't sleep because I keep planning outfits I don't own 😳 tell me, Daddy — would you take me shopping?

I finally sat down to write the scene I've been thinking about all week and now I can't tell if my face is hot from the words or the wine 😳 tell me, Daddy — would you read over my shoulder?

Everyone else at Bryant Park yoga is so focused and I keep tipping over because I looked up at the buildings 😳 tell me — would you steady me, or just watch me fall?

The whole stadium is holding its breath and I'm sitting here in the sun realizing I don't understand a single rule of tennis 😳 tell me — would you explain it to me, or let me stay confused?
