when you gonna love you as much as I do
It's three in the morning and I am in a weird existential state right now, brought on by the stress of being the only unmarried and childless person at a large family dinner event, and exacerbated by watching The Hours and drinking a cheap Hurricane-flavored frozen wine cooler while I wait for my laundry load to finish so I can chuck it in the ( Read more... ) -
I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
2017 was a terrible year for many of us, so let us celebrate its death! I won't tempt fate by saying 2018 has to be better, but we'll just have to hope for the best, prepare for the worst, and shoot down the middle.
Otherwise, adapt accordingly and just, like, drink a lot.
Happy Year Year, everybody. See you on the flip side. -
Dear Author letter for ALL CAPS Exchange 2017
So, here's my Dear Author letter for ALL CAPS Exchange. I, um, heavily cribbed from the one I did last year.

Well, all of that happened
It's like the world sat back and asked, "okay, we've really done a number on you but you know what would really piss in your wounds?" And then did it.
And you can't do shit about it but take it, and be unhappy. Such is life, I guess. I wish I could be mature about this, but God, no, I really can't. I'm so tired of it. NEVER CARE ABOUT ANYTHING, IT ( Read more... ) -
Your time will come
I have to believe the sports arc of the universe is long, but it is finally time for it to bend in DC's direction.
Dear God, please let it be time.
(ETA: It was not. I'm going to take an ambien and try not to exist for a while.) -
Dance with the one what brung ya
There's a man who lives near my parents who apparently makes his living as an Elvis impersonator. He has a car with his number and business and a huge fucking headshot of him painted on the side; I always see it when I drive to their house (not sure if that's a good indication for his career) but I rarely see him ( Read more... ) -
I for one welcome our new Russian overlords
I stopped giving quite as much a shit about sports results ("YOU FUCKING LIAR!" screams everyone who reads my tumblr and/or private twitter) when real life hit me with, like, multiple deaths and illnesses with friends and family in succession over two years, but man, tonight still really hurt ( Read more... ) -
Felt so symbolic yesterday
God, 2016 was a shitty year, wasn't it? Like, it was going to take a hell of a year to knock Shitsburgh and the Flightless Chodes out of the top three, but by God, did 2016 manage to do its best to even put them out of the top ten. (Don't worry, they still got awarded a spot in the top ten though through no real talent of their own, just as always ( Read more... ) -
She's a little burner, burner, gonna throw you to the flame
Merry Christmas. I'm alive. I figure I need to acknowledge this every now and then. I will also take this opportunity to note that I still hate Love Actually and think it is the worst holiday film ever. I don’t know how this movie became so beloved but I want it to stop. Channels are showing this monstrosity of pap and terrible intertwining ( Read more... ) -
My demons and I are closer than ever. Next year we're gonna visit every major league baseball park.
One of these days I'm going to post a head-on picture of the hedge as it divides my yard and my neighbor's, as she takes proper care of her side and always trims it when seasonally appropriate. Whereas I get out my hedge trimmer and take my anger issues out on it whenever life pisses me off to the point where I can't hold it in anymore. (Not as ( Read more... )
