Merry Christmas to those celebrating.
Happy Almost-the-fuck-out-of-2009 for those not.
Love to all of you.
I know that I complain a lot, but I do count myself lucky to have each and every one of you in my life. You're the best a girl could ask for: kind, funny, and endlessly supportive. I love you.

"are you around?
...
put your breath in my mouth.
put your heart in my chest."

-hospital shipsI'm obsessed with haunting, quiet, peaceful, ambient type music lately. As though if I listen to only things that sound transparent, I'll figure out the secret to transparency myself. Much of the time I'd like to just disappear. There is too much of me. I ( Read more... )

I'm becoming increasingly insecure the more time passes. The less I hear from this boyfriend of mine. My skin broke out somewhat from stress and eating holiday junk while I was there, and I hadn't lost as much weight as I wanted to before I saw him (but he did call me 'tiny' so that can't be it).

I was feeling like a short walk, perhaps to the Freddy's near my place, maybe if I was feeling more adventurous, to the Safeway in the Pearl. Once I started going, though, I just... didn't stop.

I accidentally took a three hour/10 mile walk in the rain.

A man has been going through my neighborhood with a harmonica most nights this week. Today he just couldn't wait. Today he came through in the early afternoon.
I'm pretty sure blues harmonica is meant for the dark. For the night.
But this time, I'll let it slide.

This morning, I woke late and spent half an hour talking to Zach on the phone. It ended up being a nice way to procrastinate the moment of "breakfast bamboozle" I knew was waiting. It ended up coming down between half a can of tomatoes and finishing off the brown rice, which would have taken 45 minutes to cook. Guys, when they say "chili ready", ( Read more... )

I totally forgot the best part of my job interview. They had me shadow a girl for a little bit, and while I was doing so, a caller asked to speak to Mr SomeLawyerGuy and when Kris asked "Who may I ask is calling?" he replied "It's Harry, his adversary! He knows who I am!" I had to cover my mouth to avoid laughing into the headset ( Read more... )

Anyone who wished me luck or sent me some positive vibes lately: THANK YOU. You are all amazing. Who wants cookies? I'm serious ( Read more... )

Sometimes, having so many creative and talented people in my life makes me feel useless. Like a dusty chunk of sandstone mistakenly plopped down among the gems. But sometimes it leads me to days like this, where I listened exclusively to the music of my friends. Luke while I walked across downtown, Rei on the train, Jake while I shopped.
