LA Fires and Showering at Natalie's

Dude, you know how insecure I was about taking my shirt off? Why? When I first moved to the apartment in LA, I was 18 years old, I moved in with Alex Ernst. Before that, I was living with my roommate, this guy from my high school, his name was Mason, and he would walk around with his shirt off all the time. And like, obviously it wasn't a big deal, but to me I was like, oh my God, am I gonna have to take my shirt off? 'Cause like, I guess this is what roommates do. And Alex Ernst still hadn't moved in at the time. And I called him, and I remember this vivid as day, I was like, dude, like, it's fun here, like you're gonna have fun when you move to LA, just coming from Minnesota. But like, our roommate, like, always walks around with his shirt off. And like, I was just trying to gauge his work.
