Pedestrian Polyamory 47: Katching Up with the Katz

It’s been awhile (try not to sing that), but Shira and Gavin have REUNITED!!!  Sort of.  In this deeply personal episode of Pedestrian Polyamory, Shira and Gavin share their lives with you once again, telling you the good the bad and the ugly of what’s happening in their lives.  Sounds like a standard description of the show? Well it kind of is, but this one goes even deeper than they have ever gone before.  Grab your tissues, and pop some Xanax, it’s time for Pedestrian Polyamory.

An Open Letter from Shira B

An Open Letter from Shira B

Dearest Barries, Berries, and Pedestrians, Have you ever had a caricature drawn of you? No? Come to San Francisco sometime. Some charming artist on the Fisherman’s Wharf will talk you out of 20 bucks and 20 minutes and proceed to draw your picture. When the artist turns his drawing around for you to see, you smile. Obviously, it’s not your exact reflection looking back at you. It IS you, however, with all of your distinct features exaggerated and cartoonish. Your real life full lips are drawn out to look shiny, glossy, bubbly, and Jessica Rabbit-esque. Your hipster beard has been [...]
