I’ve literally never been happier in my life than when I listen to mashups. All the dopamine. All. The. Dopamine. I’m pretty sure that if I could just continuously stream song mashups 24/7 I would be a 100% better human being ( Read more... )

I’m not one to fan girl about celebrities, but I love Shane Madej’s big sexy strange brain so much. In a platonic way. I’m not a creep. I am a little bit buzzed though. Which is the perfect occasion to finalize my gift wrapping, lol.

I’ve been reading a lot of trashy dark romances lately. I’ve also been reading a lot of classic literature lately, so maybe they balance each other out. Romance has never been my preferred genre, but I’m lonely I suppose ( Read more... )

People moan about being told they didn’t live up to their potential. Meanwhile, I’m the one telling myself. I tested at a college reading level by the time I was 8, for fuck’s sake. What an absolute waste ( Read more... )

I’ve been on an art history kick lately, and people were always checking themselves into mental institutions. Is that even still a thing? Sign me up. I mean, not really because I’m a single mom and their dad is a piece of hopeless garbage. But also I am not ever going to fucking be well.

Dustin texted me that he had a nightmare that I was dating a 35 yo plumber. It’s like the third time he has complained of dreaming about me moving on. As if I could be anything other than stagnant. I’ve had several nightmares myself - hellscapes in which I found myself utterly baffled and disheartened to be back with him. He is the thing lurking ( Read more... )

I've always thought of myself as an introvert, but I didn't start out life that way. I was super extroverted as a young child. I would approach strangers in restaurants. People in our apartment complexes knew my parents as "Felicia's parents." I would wander around and make friends with all of the adults. Which is a little stomach churning when I ( Read more... )

I resent whomever claimed Madame Bovary to be "the perfect novel." Or maybe I'm just a little uncomfy sitting with the criticism of maladaptive daydreaming and romantic idealism. Such a difficult book to get through. Be happy with what you have, or you will ruin everyone's lives!!! That's what you're meant to take away. Personally, I think the ( Read more... )

I'm just over here trying to argue with science. Last month I discovered my first gray hair - completely white, actually. Google says that hair doesn't turn gray, it grows in. So why was this strand the same length as the rest of my hair, google?? Hmm? And no, it's not because it's a single strand of hair and I just didn't notice it before; it was ( Read more... )

My grandma saw Violet today and asked with disdain if she's going to go around wearing THAT during the school year. THAT being a pink Hello Kitty shirt that we found in the men's section of Target that fits like a dress on her. It doesn't hang inappropriately off the shoulders or anything, it just goes down to her knees. She always wears shorts ( Read more... )
