this eagles song is following me everywhere i go. i hear it on the radio every time i’m in the car, pretty much. today was an exception; i was in the car twice and only heard it once. this is regia silk yarn. it is 55% wool, 20% silk, and 25% polyamide, which i guess [...]
i went into the piercing shop because i wanted to stretch my ears a lot. they refused to let me stretch past 14g because my current earrings are 18g. it doesn’t even look different. it didn’t even hurt.
there is nothing in my apartment that breaking it down into sections and giving each section a good fifteen minutes over the course of a couple of days couldn’t fix. yet whenever there is something on the floor of my apartment, i am immediately overwhelmed by it and can’t handle doing anything to fix it.

when my dad and nancy were here, they bought me this giant box full of cutlery and plates and cups and mugs. but the mugs are cutesy, with saucers and everything. they’d bought this stuff for me while with some of their friends who live in the area. (well, in kansas.) the girl they were [...]

dreams so sublime in hot pink time from your dot to your dot i draw a line… i still know every word of every song from swans crossing. this pink really is an obnoxious cotton candy color. i am doing the body of the sweater in pink, and the sleeves in a dark, rich purple. [...]
there is nothing like drinking red wine (from a bottle with a screw top, out of a plastic cup) that i’ve mixed with club soda. it is all class all the time here in my apartment. also did i mention that i’m working? tsk tsk, drinking on the job. tonight steph and i ate ethiopian [...]
i accidentally watched a documentary on chickens and eggs yesterday, and have decided to go back to being vegan. today i packed up all the non-vegan food in my apartment and took it over to chris and tammie and fiona. this is possibly a mistake, but i feel pretty good about it so far. and, [...]
