The age of the internet has given plenty of people the opportunity to tell the world about their lives. Whether its celebrity twitterers like Stephen Fry or anonymous lawyers, there’s something for everyone. We’ve had solicitors diarising tough days in the office and trainee barristers letting the world know what its really like to undergo the trial of a pupillage.
So how does the idea of someone sending in their after-hours exploits to the New York Magazine grab you? A paralegal dubbed; The Polyamorous Paralegal , a “26, single(ish), East Village, straight” girl, decided her life after work was so hot and interesting that everyone needed to hear about it. Here’s a clip:
DAY ONE
7:50 a.m.: Wake up inappropriately excited for Friday. Have no definite plans but am hoping for a booty call from B, my lover from the Bronx. He’s been a lover for nearly six months and we have no desire to date each other. But the sex is oh-so good.
10 a.m.: Make plans with work friends to go out for happy hour. Which usually turns into happy six hours.
1:03 p.m.: Receive a text from a guy I’m seeing, the One Who Cries. Seriously. I’m really not into him at all, but I have trouble telling people I don’t like them. Ignore his text.
To put it into context, she is not the only one; every Monday since April 2007, the New York Magazine has posted on its Daily Intel blog a seven-day diary of an anonymous New Yorker’s sex life. According to the magazine, "it began as an experiment intended to entertain the bored at work, but the candor of the Diarists soon attracted an outsize and devout following. Since October 2007, they have been joined by a rambunctious cacophony of commenters as obsessive on the subject of sex as the Diarists themselves."
