Red eyes on orange horizons.
This week seems like some game that life has been playing against me, and I keep coming up with the losing hand. Name an aspect, and I've either been trumped or had to fold.
This evening was the coup de grâce. I'd give in, but I don't have that option right now.

Crises.
I'm not sure if everyone has heard or not, but my living situation took a turn for the worse Sunday when I got home from working a show and found out my roommate had reached the breaking point and was removing herself from Richmond.

The sad thing is that despite the large amount of pies I will be hoarding, the highlight of my day will most likely end up being my finding a first edition of Sarah Vowell's Take the Cannoli at ( Read more... ) -
Updates for Reasonable Children
First off, this userpic isn't really indicative of my current mood, per se, but it's my first animated GIF that I made from a webcomic to which I am completely addicted. It is not great by any stretch of the imagination, but it still cracks me up ( Read more... ) -
