Patterns of Speech

Some neat little rhymes I was thinking of today. I did Forensics in high school- which is not like CSI and more like Debate team. There, I was introduced to a Gilbert and Sullivan snippet a guy used to prepare his voi…

Austen geek time!

It's time again for me to geek out over stories that no one cares about. Persuasion is on the menu tonight. "A man does not recover from such a devotion to such a woman. He ought not. He does not." Oh, Captain Wentwo…

I hate waking up.

I've been sleeping longer than usual. I've been dreaming of you of late. In my dreams your arms around me, face close to mine. I'm awake: You're oceans and continents from me. In my dreams things are as they used to be.…

The wedding cake is a lie!

Pictured: A lie. No, I did not make this post to make a Portal reference. (Although that was an added bonus.) You see, there's this vicar, in Britain. He's marrying kids off just so one or the other can get residency…

Sushi Cat- A Love Story.

I've been studying a lot lately. I'm taking two summer classes at the moment, and they're pretty brutal, since they've been reduced in length even more from normal summer sessions- and both are online. ANYWAY. So like…

Because daydreams are all I have.

But I really don't have to make anything up. Coming up behind me to kiss my neck while I was doing dishes. Sharing a smile with you at the end of a day we didn't think we'd be spending together- we were looking for a pr…

What the cunt?

All you cunting whores out there... you know who you are... IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PENIS, I'M NOT GOING TO GO OUT OF MY WAY FOR YOU. But I expect you to fucking show me some respect. Cunts. Whores. Bitches. Sluts. I'…

And the battle rages on

They're still installing flooring upstairs. BAM BAM BAM. It's almost 10 at night, wtf guys. You can hear loud music between our apartments, so I'm blasting Ke$ha's "Your Love is my Drug" on repeat. It's been on for ov…

We are...

Like ships, passing in the night. Except I have night vision goggles. And I am slightly more vocal in my angst. Oh Longfellow, I am probably the bane of your existance. One of these days, I'm going to post somethin…

Late last night I heard the screen door slam

I have Counting Crows' version of Big Yellow Taxi stuck in my head. Even though Mr. Jones is still my favorite Counting Crows song. Irony's a bitch- one that often beds with inappropriate appropriateness. Which i…

Wybacz mi.

I would be lying if I didn't say that some of what I do is simply masochism masquerading as want of knowledge or seeking drama. I lurk on a forum called Surviving Infidelity. It's a forum about exactly what it says i…

8 am: BAM BAM BAM BAM

I consider myself pretty understanding. I know that things need fixed around apartment buildings, I know that they have to be fixed sometime, might as well be during the summer in a college town- when presumably no one'…

Carrie.

IT WAS CRAP. That is the most important thing, really. There were about two minutes out of the entire movie where I was not thinking THIS IS CRAP. Pictured: Mostly crap.

Music is my Boyfriend

...Or perhaps this post should be titled, Music and my Boyfriends. Love it or hate it, my past boyfriends have had a huge effect on what I listen to today and how I listen to it. Some people become more jaded with each…

Oh, Randall.

Today in xkcd, The mouseover text is: "You know I'll never leave you. Not as long as she's with someone." D'awww. Randall Munroe, you kill me with your emo relationship truths. I certainly don't believe that there is…

I went to a bar by myself and didn't shrivel up and die

... You know how most people are like, "You should never drink alone, bad juju, baaad juju. !" Guess who went to a bar all by her lonesome tonight. I wanted some freakin' sushi, and the Kroger sort, while exponential…

What I feel like I do at work all the time:

Also, I've found perhaps the perfect breakup song when you are the broken-up-with. "You Lost Me" by Christina Aguilera. Pretty wonderful stuff, although the music video is so boring I couldn't even watch it. Listen t…

goofBALLER

Because, well, we were pretty baller. I have the feeling I'm being weird for sitting on top of my desk in my underwear with my keyboard on my lap writing this post. But you know what, fuck it. I live alone right now, a…

Insecurity.

(As an aside, I am so glad you posted where you are now. I was still looking for your old footprints before I found that out. It's always nice to know you're okay. PS: Good luck finding a plate (?). ) Anyway. Insecur…

On flowered shampoo and my most recent ex.

Let us get this straight. I am very much female in persuasion. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, reading Jane Austen, sewing, knitting, ogling Humphrey Bogart, etc. As my home-dog Gravy said, I am not really guyish. It's tr…

I remember every detail. The Germans wore grey, you wore blue.

I'm watching Casablanca tonight, for the fourth time in three days. I have my reasons. Some of them I'll not say. But one of the bigger reasons? I freakin' love Rick. He's a badass, a gentleman, and a sweetheart und…

If I could give back your hopes, your joys, your treasures,

don't you think that I would change my world? But there's so many things trying to pull us together- And even though we're far apart, I can still watch you walk away... So much I've gotta say... It's raining here. I fee…

My first impression? Odd.

I have to admit, despite the fact that it's a mass-message, I just had to laugh. I really do look like a troll of some sort in my profile picture. (Although I think when I took it, I was envisioning myself as a lioness…

One Bourbon, One Scotch, One...Vodka.

Men (and women) are known for many things. Some are known for how they lived, what they did, how they died, money they gave, differences they made. We remember those people in lots of different ways. Some get their ow…

Urban Dictionary's crime against Xanga

I wrote this a few days ago- I wouldn't otherwise be posting anything today. I couldn't sleep, I can't eat, and I'm a wreck. Now for something lighter. Warning: this is quite possibly really old news. I usually like U…

I really just fucking hate who I used to be.

Confiteor Deo omnipotenti, beatæ Mariæ semper Virgini, beato Michaeli Archangelo, beato Ioanni Baptistæ, sanctis Apostolis Petro et Paulo, omnibus Sanctis, et vobis, fratres: quia peccavi nimis cogitatione, verbo et oper…

Sam, I thought I told you never to play...

It really astounds me how much my mood has changed over the course of today. This morning I woke up like any other morning, kinda down but getting over it. Later in the morning, I was brought down some more. This afte…

What do you do when the worst thing you've done defines you? You change your ways and hold your breath.

I would NOT take John Galt.

I like to argue. We'll get that one out there right now. It's just about my favorite pastime-especially with people I date. I don't do the whole "we never fight" thing. I honestly don't think I could handle it. Even…

Can we stop this thing from sinking

Because I want to feel like I did- I want to feel innocence. Who the fuck was I kidding?

GET YOUR OWN DAMN SANDWICH.

My mind holds onto the strangest things. Just recently I felt like I had had a dream where (what to call him? my first boyfriend? Derek? I just typed 'my Derek.' I don't really think that's a good compromise)...where…

Dolla Dolla Billz- An American Dream

This is a response to the wonderful Dan's Marriage and Kids: The American Dream. While a lot of Americans aspire to have a nice little nuclear family- 2.09 kids, dog, house, white picket fence, etc- I'd like to say that…

Zigzag patterns

Last night, I had a dream that my first boyfriend came into my room and lay down with me to sleep. When I woke in the middle of the night, the stuffed bunny he gave me the first Easter we were together was spooned aroun…

You know what's sad?

I read Xanga: I am so fucking sick of this earlier this afternoon. And then I see that one of the blogs she was ranting about, think pink., was on Top Blogs- number three to her number one. So, since that whole comme…

If we should ever cross the same place, at the same time, would your world skip a beat

'cause it was me? If we could share our life would I disappoint your memories? I'm freakin' obsessed with that song right now. For obvious reasons. Warning: this is a rather materialistic post. But I think every girl…

On codependence and general lameness

This is ridiculous. I talked to a friend of mine that I hadn't talked to in forever last night. What were we talking about? Relationship drama, of course. It's so funny how you graduate high school, you go to college…

A romantic form letter for everyone.

Every action spawns an equal and opposite reaction, right? So to combat this, I'm going to write a form letter for getting together/hooking up/whatever they're calling it these days. And, this is truly meant as a joke,…

This was going to be an angry post.

I went to bed last night with my emotions roiling in my chest. But this morning I can't even summon the emotional wherewithal to make the post I was going to make about it. I feel drained, and I still have the dregs of…

Hot damn, she's still got it.

The jury's still out whether or not "it" is worth having. :P Part of my job for today was standing around and waiting for people to approach me with their questions. Well, before that happened, I had to make sure I was…

Wake up call

I woke up this morning feeling completely unlike P-Diddy. Such a horrible time this morning. I was up all night last night trying to finish my homework (which didn't get done in time, by the way- the input system was so…

Speaking of douchebags...

My most recent ex texted me today, to tell me that he'd somehow run himself into a tree and now has staples in his head. Of course, I ask if he's alright, etc. He says, true to form, that he thinks he's alright. Rig…

On date-weight and douchebags

I started a new running regimen this morning. The old one- run until you can't anymore- wasn't exactly appealing to my lazy ass. So, upon reading one of the Healthkicker articles about a Beginner's Guide to Running, I…

Fireworks and a cease-fire of passive aggression

Man, I never thought I'd be here this time last year. Or this time the year before. Or the year before that, etc etc etc. I can still hear the fireworks they're putting up, and I can see them from my front stoop. Pret…

Crushin'

Oh yes, I am seriously crushin'. Oh man, I've been looking forward to doing this blog for such a long time. There are plenty of males in the world, and more than enough handsome ones for yours truly to admire. These ar…

Son-ofa-biiiiitch

It's been a few glasses of wine later from dinner, and I'm feeling a little...wrong. A little... lame. A little... alone. A little......emo. There, I said it, emo. But, true to form, I will not make you look. Here'…

Broke-Ass College Student: A Manifesto

There are times in everyone's life where they think about how they are doing financially and how they will continue to do in the future. Today was just one of those times for me. I realized that I work hours and hours…

In defense of Twilight. (Kinda)

I cannot believe I just put my fingers to the keyboard and typed those words. I am one of the last people I would ever think would post something like this. Here goes nothing: Because of all the hullabaloo yesterday wi…
