Went for groceries tonight. And by groceries, I mean chicken, cereal and milk. I stood in the checkout line for 10 minutes while this lady debated what she could afford to buy. Her daughter came up with a beanie baby and the mom said to wait and see "if there was enough left over." Then she looked up and saw the total and realized she was already ( Read more... ) -
Down the rabbit hole
Had a particularly fucked up dream last night. My (fictional, though I was certainly reminded of my college partner of ~3 years) long-term girlfriend kicked me out of the house we had built together. By together, I mean we were together while I literally built much of it. But she demanded I leave, and she stole all my friends, so they were all on ( Read more... ) -

All you happy people out there can kiss my ass. Seriously.
I think at least 100 people have suggested I check out OKCupid or some other online dating. they think they're giving me good advice. First of all, I know about the internet. You think online dating is a new concept to me? Second, the suggestion sounds like this to my ears: "Oh hey, it ( Read more... ) -
Nostalgia
4 years after moving in, I finally got my office painted and started setting it up. Well, I haven't gotten far on the setting it up part, first thing I did was drag the file cabinet in place and go through it to toss anything I don't need to hold on to anymore. Kinda forgot the bottom drawer was the nostalgia drawer. I found summer camp address ( Read more... ) -
Boing
That's the sound of a rubber bouncy ball. That's the sound of me bouncing back (as opposed to bouncing off the pavement). Sunday night was the worst, and if it wasn't, I'd be some emotionless automoton. But other than the debilitating hangover (and I mean the kind of hangover that starts with waking up still drunk), Monday was a little better. ( Read more... ) -
Well what did I think would happen?
My last post was in July. I was tearing my hair out over Emily, the girl I walked away from because, despite my feelings for her, I couldn't see any way that we wouldn't end badly. It was years ago, and now of course I've forgotten why I was so sure it would end in heartbreak. The last time I saw her, her ex boyfriend had suddenly reappeared, and ( Read more... ) -

the melodramatic question would be "where did i go wrong" but that's just... well melodramatic. a better question would be "why did i go wrong" but that's still a miss. nope, i think the real question is "why am i still haunted" (especially by things a lifetime in the past) -
oh yeah
I got the offer. I took the offer. Friday is my last day. Now if I can just get the rest of my life in order. shit. -
Thank You Universe
Sometimes, when you're facing a tough decision, the universe provides little things to make the decision easier. In the past two hours, my decision was made for me. If I get this offer (again, nothing official, but I've been told it's "almost a sure thing"), I have to take it. The frustration here is just too much. Sure, there will be frustrations ( Read more... )
