Let’s refer back to an entry I wrote in December for my New Year’s resolutions…
“New Year’s Resolutions:
1. Learn to play the piano.
2. Fix my body. Or else I will be using a walker by the time I am 40.
3. Learn to love a vegetable.
4. Get a camera and start taking pictures again.
5. Have $1000 in savings by this time next year. That is harder than it sounds.

Co-pays, deductibles, and free kolaches
Well, I got health insurance yesterday through work. Insurance vendors came to KSA to talk to us about our “options”. I got it all. I mean, fuck it right? For $160 or so off my paycheck every month, I get medical, dental, vision, and $20,000 life insurance. I haven’t had insurance since I was…I don’t know. 16? So in the next few months, I’m hitting up every...
A pet for a pet.
So I’ve been thinking of getting a pet for my dog Charlie. You heard me! I am gone 7-3 during the day, and he certainly needs a lot of love and affection. I am thinking maybe if I get him a girlfriend, he will be less lonely, and hopefully, less destructive to my tupperware I leave laying around sometimes. When I take him for walks and other dogs are in sight, he pulls me to them, whining...

“Why don’t I ever go out?”
“Because you don’t have a main group of friends anymore.”
“Why not?”
“Because you’re tired of the bullshit.”
It’s true, I am. Montrose, I love you, but I can’t relate with you anymore. Yes, I could go and “rage” at all the coolest parties, and hang out with all the coolest...

A HISTORY
On my way back from Austin with Neil, we listened to bands that reminded me of times in my life that, upon looking back, seem like movies I hadn’t seen in a long time, and nearly forgotten. And yet, when these certain bands come on, or that one song you listened to during that one moment, or that one line that reminds you of your asshole ex boyfriend who broke your heart, everything rushes...
a part of me feels like before i took this job, i had a lot more to talk to people about. the other part of me feels like although that may be true, i am a much more grounded and likable person than i used to be. i guess the kids have something to do with that.
there’s the ones that are so perfect you wish they’d fucking do something wrong once in a while.
the weird quirky ones you...

I’m sorry but if you don’t have even a hint of cellulite—not one little fucking dimple, even when you squeeze your fat together—I already hate you. Nothing personal, just the way it has to be.

1. Learn to play the piano.
2. Fix my body. Or else I will be using a walker by the time I am 40.

If I get even one or two of these done, I will be satisfied. I managed to keep my resolution from last...
i think everyone has a very secretive, perversed private life. the kind of life that stores very perculiar, secret moments that you had. ones that you’d want to blow your head off for if they were somehow exposed or revealed, either by accident or on purpose.
i think everyone should always keep that weird secret little life to themselves. never let anyone know that strange thing you do when...
ok, fine. i'm back.
four months later, i am crawling back to you, begging you to take me back.
i apologize, tumblr. please have me again.
i am employed, i am in love, i am alive, i am happy.
nothing went as planned, everything fell apart, and it was the best thing that ever happened to me.

all covered.
I sometimes find myself getting lost in YouTube world. Most of the time, I get caught up in watching videos of songs covered by YouTube members. Here’s some good ones.
Broken Social Scene - Lover’s spit
Covered by a kid from the UK with a voice you would never expect to come out of him. He’s 13!
Coldplay - Viva la vida

I’m going “camping” for a week here with my sister in the south of France. I might not come back.
Handbook Personality Assessment - Drawing →
Explains and assesses how the way someone draws shows how one feels about themselves and the world around them.
I don't wanna talk about it.
Don’t ask me why I’m not in Paris right now, because (see subject).
I did, however, hack into my olddddd livejournal and I would like to share a few with tumblr wrld. This is a really long post. These go all the way back to when I lived in England, and also when I was with Jesse. Some entries are funny, some are sad, but they all bring back a lot of memories.

bb brunes vs. the jonas brothers
Attention.
I have found the french version of The Jonas Brothers. Their name is BB Brunes, “Baby Brunettes”. Although I would consider them a little less Disney rock and filled with a little more authenticity, they are essentially the same kind of seemingly fabricated band made to appeal to all those tweens that want to rebel against their parents, but are still too young to...
Fuckin' sexy.
TOP 10 BEST WORST PICTURES FROM MY GOING AWAY PARTY (in no particular order)

I want to love you, you young thang.
Uh, amazing? Last night was anyway. Although, I realized going away parties are generally a bad idea because it’s a time when all the people you love most in the world gather together, and start making you feel so special and cared about that you begin questioning why you’re even going away in the first place. Don’t get me wrong, I know exactly why I’m leaving…but when nights like last night...

LEAVING YOU FOREVER, KINDA.
Thank you to the fabulous Tim Dorsey for the flyer.
I hope to see you all there, with tissues in your pockets.
The brighter side of me.
I teeter on the line of being a relatively private person or wanting to be a more open, honest person; more of an open book. I’d say the majority of the time I tend to be more of the latter. Unfortunately, as mature as I can be, I am also somewhat naïve. The naïve side of me has a tendency to open up to people that are not really looking out for my best interest.
I am warned often from good...
Flap flap
(It seems Lil and I have the same brain because when we called each other this morning, I told her I wrote this blog and she had written one about the exact same topic. I guess that’s what happens when you share an apartment together for a year.)
I feel like I’ve been having to be a winglady a lot lately. I suppose being the only girl in your group of friends with a boyfriend entitles me to this...
Shelby and the night he fell asleep.
This is from a couple months ago, but it’s still postworthy. The prey: Shelby Hohl. The accomplice: A shaved face David Gianakos.
"One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, FLOOR!"
Yesterday was Lil’s birthday. She turned 24, and apparently 21. In true birthday fashion, Lil got wasted. “Fuck it, it’s my birthday.” I lost count of how many tequila shots she had, but I’m really dumbfounded at how she made it past midnight.
I think last night we realized how not classy, groomed, or rich we were. (As if we didn’t already know that.) Let me...
R.I.P. Rave Dave
Yesterday was an emotionally draining day. As some of you may know, our friend Dave Rask a.k.a. “Rave Dave” passed away yesterday. There is not much that can really be said to express how we all feel about his death, and the events leading up to it. Dave was a soft spoken, sweet, and gentle soul who was a talented artist and musician. I can’t think of a single person who ever...
Damn you, Sophie.
I’ve had Sophie since she was a kitten, and brought her here from Rhode Island three years ago. At some point, she decided to be an outdoor cat. I really hated it and worried about her a lot, but eventually I kind of just trusted her to take care of herself. She came around every now and again to hang out for a little bit and then would leave and I wouldn’t see her again for weeks and...
Last day of moving.
Today was my last official day at the apartment. Yesterday was somewhat hellish and I’m really glad it’s over. With the help of some strong men (Diego, David G., David I., Justin, and Grant) I finally got everything out of my apartment. How did I acquire so many things in 2 years? I really need to re-evaluate my consumption habits. For real. I spent one last night in the apartment, in...
