INTERN: Whoa, whoa, whoa—what are you doing here? Get out before someone sees you!
real actual Hilary: Too late. Don't worry, this picture's nice and blurry, just the way you like it.

real actual Hilary: Yes.
INTERN: You started a real actual Hilary Tumblr?

This my favorite post ever!
ReplyDeletethank you! that makes INTERN very happy.
