BTW, my expiration date is NEVER.
jgh:
I plan on being a hot-ass puma/cougar, and if a time comes when no man wants my sexy granny ass, I’m going to eat all the chocolate cake I want, and not shave my legs, and travel around the world, and perhaps cavort with some hot foreigner with a granny fetish.
Expiration dates are for milk cartons, not women.
Oh no.
I stole a handful of cheese-its from my roommate a minute or two before she came back. I was able to throw a shirt over them in time, but now I can’t eat them. This is miserable. She just needs to go to the bathroom so I can stuff them all in my mouth.

From a 1966 Playboy interview with Bob Dylan: PLAYBOY: Mistake or not, what made you decide to go the rock-‘n’-roll route? DYLAN: Carelessness. I lost my one true love. I started drinking. The first thing I know, I’m in a card game. Then I’m in a crap game. I wake up in a pool hall. Then this big Mexican lady drags me off the table, takes me to Philadelphia. She leaves me alone in her...
Footnotes are exhausting.
Fuck you Chicago Style. My head is about to explode.
The internet is weird.
Three or four years ago a google search of my last name would bring up 4/5 just family members. Now it’s practically a free for all. And my last name is kind of strange! I feel as though there is a large possibility that some of these strangers are related to me. And while that possibility is cool… the whole phenomenon is weirding me out. There is even another girl with my name on...

At this point, anyone who isn’t subscribing to the RSS of Alex’s blog is making a huge mistake. Alex writes:
Now a lot of people have been blamed for the recession. From the Democratic congressmen who failed to regulate Fannie Mae, to the Democratic administration that’s failed to travel back in time to prevent the last president from screwing shit up royally. The smarter among us may...

As one of my friends described it, “It’s like fmylife, but trashier.”
My posters have started falling off the walls.
They know the semester is almost over and that I’m done with this room. The process started last week with my Historical Map of Virginia; today I came back from the library to find my Picasso laying on the futon. In less than two weeks this room will be empty and that will be it. And I don’t think I will remember it as fondly as my room at Western.
I can barely remember my first...

It's days like these that I just want to get on...
And out of Michigan. I can’t wait until the summer.
My initial culinary summer goal was to learn how...
but now I’m thinking of just going vegan.

Blair: i dare you to go to the supermarket and turn yourself in for a banana and then jump out of the cash register and walk the banana home to my house
Inspiration for this summer? →
Bright, summery colors, here I come!
Frustration!
ahhhh I found a room to sublet in a really great house but this girl is talking about showing it to someone else?
Things I am not appreciating about today:
1. That my half & half felt the need to curdle before it was even a week old.
2. That I’m no longer quite as comfortable wearing the dress I picked out for the day. I haven’t worn one as short for a while.

THANK YOU.
Things I did/will do today to make me happy:
1. Cut the sleeves off an acid wash t-shirt so that it would fit under my prissy vintage sweater. I look totally awesome, by the way.
2. Ate two croissants for no reason (I wasn’t hungry but they were delicious).
3. Put on my homemade earrings! For the first time in months!
4. Listened to This American Life: Scenes from a Recession. I highly recommend it.
5. Took lots of pictures...

When did I get so poor?
I need my birthday and the end of the semester to come now. Please.

A letter from Maugham to Lady Juliet Duff

It is sweet of you to suggest taking me to Leo Ross. I would have liked to come, but I can’t. I am so deaf now that I have ceased pretty well altogether to go to the theater. I stimply can’t hear a word that the actors say. It is tiresome and tiring. For the last five months I have been very far from well and in the hands of the doctors who keep me...
The Remains of the Day
is such a painful book to finish.
And it's really easy to hate on Starbucks, but...
They ARE really legit, as much as I hate to say it. They’re the biggest buyer of fair trade coffee, and though it only makes up a small percentage of what they sell, the rest of their coffee is just as good. They pay the farmers around twenty five percent over the commodity price, and work with farmers to make sure that specific environmental guidlines are met. They are currently doing...
