As in . . . ?
I knew that was coming! Well, after a club everyone always wants to eat . . . so it was either Denny's or a taco truck, so we decided to pull over and grab some tacos .

And . . . ?
I guess the meat was freaking old or something, but I didn't know until I got home. I ended up running to the bathroom all night! [laughs] I can't believe I just told you that.

For personal reference--so I never venture there--where was this?
In Pasadena, CA, around the corner from club Mnage off of Fair Oaks! If you ever want to lose 20 pounds, go there.

Gross. But thanks for diet tip. So what do you do for fun?
I hang out with my girl friends a lot . . . we'll go out and party.

Do you have any unusual hobbies?
I like to make my own clothes. I've made dresses, jeans and jackets.

You're a designer?
In the making. I can make you something . . . like a pair of boxers.

A leopard-print thong, please.
Only if it's hot pink!

Rawr! Did you go to school for design?
I went FIDM, but not for design; for visual communications.

So you didn't study design?
No, I should have.

You just started designing on your own?
Yeah, I've always loved the world of design. Plus, I have a lot gay friends who inspire me. [laughs]

Like really gay, or they just act gay.
Like totally flaming gay.

So you're talking enjoy-the-taste-of-man-popsicle gay.
Man popsicles? [laughs] What? Gay people are fun to be around--they're so free spirited.

That's because they're gay.
[laughs] And they have fashion sense. They'll tell you straight up if your wardrobe looks like shit, and that you should change your outfit.

And you can compare notes on other guys!
[laughs] For sure!

Going back, how were you in high school?
I loved school--I loved to write! I was in journalism throughout high school.

Word?
Yeah, I was a good student. I had my bad moments, but I did well for the most part.

I did not take you for the journalism type.
No one does. It's like everyone expects me to say, "I was the head cheerleader and like, sooo popular in school! Like, oh my god!"

"Like, totally!" What was the last book you read?
My grandmother Margie recommended the Twilight series, so I read all four books in total.

You mean the vampire thing?
Yeah.

O. M. Freaking G. That movie was horrible!
What?! I liked it!

Of course you did, you're a girl! That movie was so cheesy.
Boo, Carter! They could have cast a hotter girl for the lead, though.

Why do girls like movies like that, or The Notebook or Titanic?
Don't forget Romeo and Juliet!

Sigh. And us dumb dudes always get dragged by chicks to watch cinematic crap like that.
[laughs] That's how you guys get laid! Duh! [laughs] Kidding!

Dudes can be so stupid for the poon!
Eww! It's Va-JJ.

Oh. Is that the current vernacular? Sounds like an Armenian dude hawking cell phones. Back to writing, what's the last thing you wrote?
I write everyday.

Emails and IMs don't count!
No! I write about my day and thoughts I have. I'll write about people I like and people I hate. [laughs]

You're like a Santa Claus. Making a list and checking it twice.
I'm better than Santa--I have boobs!

Those, you do.
And they're real!

Even better. You've been blessed with good genes. Speaking of, how are your parents?
Do your parents think they're still young?

Huh? Um, no.
Well, mine do.

What do you mean?
Like, my mother loves to club. She goes hard.

Are you talking PTA/knitting type of club?
No, Hollywood. She even came to my birthday party at the former Ivar. She can keep up with my friends . . . she even got a number at the end of the night.

Word?
[laughs] Kidding!

So I have to ask: is your mom a MILF?
No! She's not a MILF! I don't think . . . Stop!

Let me be the judge of that. Can I see her pic?
Carter!

Please?
No! [laughs]

Boo! Do you have any other siblings?
I have a younger sister named Sabrina.
