It’s Friday night and I am home alone without any plans. This is because I made no effort to make any. I have reached a stage in my life where it is okay to stay in on a weekend night, alone, and simply read or watch a movie. I think this is a huge step for me in my maturity and even in my sobriety. I used to think that I had to be surrounded by people, if I didn’t have something to do...
Revlon Walk/Run for Cancer →
My friend Dee has breast cancer and I am doing this here in Los Angeles on May 9th. Ladies, please sign up. Gentlemen, expect me to contact you for a small donation. Or vice versa. Whatevs. Men can walk for women. Men LOVE women, right? Help raise money and walk a little bit to save them! Del, this seems like something you would want to do.
If you know who Mma Ramotswe is you're pretty...
I just got done doing my taxes. BORING.
kids are the best.
Some of my students just called from the school to tell me that they miss me and hope that I get better soon. It’s funny talking to kids on the phone. They were all jealous that I was eating ice cream and watching Tom and Jerry.
This is insanity!
I can’t stop coughing! I just cough and cough and cough and it won’t stop! This is by far the worst type of cold. I mean, what is this shit? I don’t think I’ve had this type of cold since I was a child. I mean, I just can’t.stop.coughing. Misery people! Misery I say!
Sick Day.
Sick days suck. I would rather be at work right now than sitting here helpless, hungry and coughing. Sick days are fun if you’re not really sick but I am terribly sick. It’s lonely and boring.
Genius Bar
Today I had to go to the Mac store to get my computer fixed and it turned into about forty minutes of sitting at the bar counter just waiting for things to be downloaded and what-not. It was pretty amusing. There were two cute mac geniuses working in my section and I shamelessly flirted with them the whole time to the point where the topic turned to the fact that I was shamelessly flirting with...
Last night Susie, my roommate Liz and I watched Marie Antionette for the first time. UGH. That movie was so awful and almost unbearable to get through. It was basically a bunch of pretty shots of pretty patterns and chairs and Kirsten Dunst. It was getting late and the movie wasn’t getting anywhere so Liz put it on 1x fast forward. It took Susie and I a minute or so to figure this out....
I checked out my tumblrstats and I have only reblogged eight times in the 1.7 years I’ve had this. Yay for original content!
One day I will be old and wrinkled and feeling nostalgic and instead of taking out the old photo albums like Mom does, I will look through my online past from way back when and come across this picture that Paul took and ask, “Why did I waste so much time thinking my body sucked?”

I’ve come to the conclusion that there needs to be more pictures of Jack Dexter Martin on the internets. The world, well, at least mine, would be a much better place if this happened.
50's and early 60's Rock and Roll
IS THE BEST EVER.

TUMBLRS - have any suggestions? While you’re at it,...
New apts heater is not working and our new fridge hasn’t been delivered yet. It’s okay. It’s so cold we can leave perishables on the counter like it’s no big deal. As for non-perishables, I just bit into my beef jerky and I swear that shit is so cold and near frozen it chipped a tooth.
UPDATE: While waiting for the post to upload I took a good look at my beef jerky. Like,...
My roommates boyfriend asked me what he should do for her for Valentine’s Day. I told him he needs to do the following: Come with me to go pick out a nice dress. I’ll find some random neighbor to deliver it to the house on Valentine’s Day afternoon. Inside the box will be the dress and a note that says, “Put this on. Be ready at six.” Pick her up and take her to a...
Final two clauses I had to sign in the Roommate...
I agree not to have a giant ceramic/plastic wizard as the centerpiece of our living room.
I agree not to have weird pictures of dead presidents hanging in any area outside of my own bedroom.
My roommate Liz wrote this up and it made me laugh. She totally wants a wizard and I totally want to paint some sweet impressionist paintings of dead Presidents. Hey, I never signed anything saying I...
