Now that I am an adult, I put on black lipstick to...
“Wanna come smoke pot with us at the cemetery?”
“I’m going to pass, since I’m an adult and all. But hit me up later and maybe we can listen to my Nirvana album in my mom’s basement and dye my hair blue.”
“Fuck you. We’re listening to the Nirvana Bleach album right now and it’s awesome. Go fuck yourself.”

Why are most men incapable of maintaining friendships with women they’ve had romantic and/or sexual relationships with? The worst part about breaking up with someone is losing the ability to hang out with them. The saddest moment is when you’re supposed to pretend you’re strangers and never acknowledge a part of your life that was meaningful—particularly since so rare to find a...

As a card carrying member of the internet generation, most of my adolescent and adult life is archived in the vast regions of the informational black hole—some of which has probably been deleted; some I can’t remember, probably due to years of self-induced memory loss. So naturally, every once and awhile, I like to check back on the two accounts I can remember (Diaryland and Livejournal)...
GIRLS ARE PRETTY: Crossing Guard Who Can Tell When... →
girlsareprettyforever:
The reason the crossing guard cries every time you cross the street is because you’re going to die before you turn 26 and she knows it. She gets visions of when and how people are going to die when they step into her cross-walk. Something about surrendering your safety into her hands gives her a…

The most important lesson I learned this year: When your house is burning down, you don’t run after the arsonist.

Guided Meditation Review
Given that I cry every other day and I don’t have enough money for a therapist/anti-depressants, I’ve taken to brain-washing myself with positive affirmations from free guided meditations on YouTube. I’ve tried a couple so far.
The first, a British man guiding me through my happy zone with some excellent digeridoos. But his voice was a little annoying, and it was under 10...
Cats Without Health Insurance →
This was probably the saddest year of my life. If nothing else resonates, there’s this: it’s actually come to the manifestation of a cat-meets-PPO blog. This is what we like to call “hitting rock bottom.”

This is so totally offensive and reaffirms everything I’ve always felt about not shopping at AA. “Dehumanizing people is the new black.”

I was touched to hear from a dedicated follower that my most memorable era of writing was when 2.5/3 average topics were somehow connected to my vagina.
1. Lamenting my period/expressing the oppressive nature of cramps as a metaphor for the overall pitfalls of being a woman.
2. Rehashing tales of boys who fingered me.
3. Writing to-do lists. This is the .5, as sometimes the to-do list would...

Update: Accomplished brunch and crying, but forgot to eat cookies, or write any articles or poetry because I was stoned on a couch crying and watching movies all day. However I did make cornbread, so I dont know. I guess that was half-productive.

Let me tell you about my menstrual cycle.
