I don't know what to title this
I honestly don’t know where to begin, and as I said earlier tumblr fucking lost a bunch of this. earlier when I was writing I thought maybe I was too tired to try to put into words what is going on. now that I’m mostly awake from a 90 minute nap, I’m wondering if I even know how to explain it. I hesitate to say that though, because I always seem to figure it out at some point. I...

oh come on
documentary about a horse whisperer has pearl jam - just breathe in the credits. how you not gonna cry at that?
note to self
do not click when a link says “how to field dress a squirrel”, even if that sounds like a cute meme. do not ever, ever do that again.

oldtimefamilybaseball:
Having spent the majority of my late teens and twenties in a relationship of some sort, I decided it was time to be alone. After a particularly dragged out and painful breakup, I began a self-imposed break from dating of at least one year to figure myself out. Despite the fact that I’d been in my…

kindness don't ask for much
I grew up in a family of yellers. home was generally quiet, but my parents would yell even when something wasn’t a huge deal. it could get nasty sometimes, but often it was just reactionary.
this is different from a noisy household; it was always just me, my mom and my dad. a lot of the time just my mom and I, as my dad traveled a lot for work.
I’m not sure when or where it rubbed...

This is the final reminder you’ll receive before I chain myself to the computer tomorrow, posting every 30 minutes for a full 24 hours to raise money for Doctors Without Borders. I’ve been doing plenty of research this week to have my head brimming with ideas and from 8 am PST on January 14th…

my knee is taped again
if I don’t bounce back from the failed (supervised) attempt at running sometime over the next week, I’m being sent back to the doctor to have it looked at some more.
I’m being kind of a big baby about it, but I don’t care right now. I want it to get better. I don’t want to hear crunching every time I bend my fucking knee. I don’t want it to randomly hurt if I...

468 listens to love is hell? or did you finally branch out?
I HAVE BRANCHED OUT THANKS. ashes & fire was easily my top album of 2011. demolition, strangely enough and as far as RA goes, is moving up in the ranks too.

spent NYE with a bunch of my family. the upside to partying in a ritzy country club neighborhood is the fact that people spend thousands of dollars on impressive fireworks displays, and we get to watch for free while setting off el cheapo ones in the cul-de-sac.
I have a welt on my shin from a stray M-80 and a champagne headache, so it must’ve been okay. happy new year.

I see people starting to do reflective stuff about...
I feel like I want to, because my memory is getting worse as I get older and I should get that kind of thing written somewhere.
but when I try to start thinking about it, all I can think is that the only part of this year that really mattered was the last few months. and those are already well-documented in chat logs, emails, phone calls and looks from across the room that are impossible to...

Of which I am most proud: List from Morrissey |... →
I’m not about to judge the man’s taste in his own albums, but it does seem a little funny that his favorites are the last three. like, “oh, I’m old, those are the ones I remember best.”
oh well. maybe I’m just cranky because nothing tops vauxhall & I as far as I’m concerned and it hurts my feelings that morrissey doesn’t feel that way to this...

this week is already a lot crazier than I would...
I just want to lay around and watch cartoons. yesterday I felt too crappy to even do that.
I did spend gift cards today, though. my aunts decided to have a party new years eve, the theme being “gaudy sparkly shirts and jewelry”. got the jewelry handled (one of the pieces is a necklace featured on the person in the photo that says “make a statement!”, barf). it feels like...

By now you all know what has been happening at home with our dear friend Jen. Well, her surroundings have gone from being frustrating to truly UNSAFE.
She needs to move. NOW. Seriously, we’re talking a week here.
The problem is that she does not have the funds to pick up and leave immediately.
We are a community that helps people when they need it.
Let’s help...

these are even lovelier than I expected.
I may have adult furniture in my bedroom now
but I still don’t have four matching wine glasses.
or a set of towels that go together.
and there’s laundry everywhere. always.
sometime, I’ll get these things working all at once.

I got a new bed today.
after sleeping on a full size mattress/box spring/stand and nothing more for the past several years, a queen pillow top that reaches my hip in height on a cherry wood sleigh bed feels much more.. significant. not to mention the fact that my bedroom is probably a little too small for it, it’s kind of startling to see now when I walk into the room. I also got a dresser, with a mirror, but for...
