Sorry for all the face-blogging and personal blogging lately, guys.
Just a lot of personal developments and need to vocalize it, so to speak. I don’t know how many people are interested in reading my life ramblings, but for those of you who are, or who at least are willing to endure the personal prattle in order to enjoy the other reblogs, thanks.
- I kind of want to make a painting, just of that part of the butt that meets the back of the thighs. The negative space almost makes a diamond shape. I love that part.
- If I was a bigger Zelda fan, I would get my name in Hylian tattooed somewhere. Or a blacklight triforce tattoo on my hand. But alas.
- I am going to make friends with my window sill and use it as a late night computer desk. I’m resting here right now and I see my reflection in the dark window; it’s kind of unnerving.
- I’m going to bake bread on Thursday.
Not the best photo, but I just made a balsamic reduction and used it to SMOTHER steak over a bed of baby spinach. MMFFFF.
My cheesecake brownies are in the oven.
God I’ve missed having a full kitchen.
OOPS
Is it weird that chewing popcorn and chex mix right now is making me dizzy with every chomp?
I’m giving up for the night. Leave me ask-box questions for the morning - anonymous or…identified.
I’m clearly bored, and I do have too many things to do, that I shouldn’t be fucking around on Tumblr but whatever.
I never understood people who believe that you need to find somebody worth dying for. I mean, it’s so much more worth if if you can find someone to live for, right?
Let’s be real.

I guess you could say that I learned a little bit about myself and about human nature this evening.

Hello, all-nighter, my old friend. I see you bring “ohgodiforgotthatTHATisduetomorrowtoo” with you. Self-Control, activate.
Please leave me things.
Sometimes I feel that I don’t deserve the kindess of other people.
Spending the evening with my relatives up north in Evanston (about an hour’s train ride from the Loop) to talk about paperwork for the apartment we’re applying for on Sunday.
Of course, I ended up spending the evening watching Alvin and the Chipmunks - Chipwrecked with the little ones and chasing after the dog with them in the backyard. I am disheveled.
Alexis, my 2 year old cousin, gave me this Hello Kitty bracelet. She gave me like, 10, but I only kept one.
ps. My computer is totally dead, so my school sent it to the Apple store, and lent me a computer in the mean time. It’s totally obsolete.
Yo, this photo be cray. I just found it on my harddrive.

Anyway, went apartment hunting again today, but the owner and agent didn’t respond to our emails or pickup their phones when we got to the property to see it, so we just left.
Oh well.
Then I spent the rest of the evening sort of reminiscing in my head about the Con, and about New Years in Florida. Re-watched some of the videos, and I got me some mad nostalgia again.
I love that we’re all such nerds, conversing in speech memes and making references that only our community would understand. I look back, and I’m like, wow, we really don’t give a damn how strange we all looked together, or how strange we all sounded; we just enjoyed each other’s company. And we still do.
I can’t wait until November to see those FREAKS again, and meet up with others. It’ll feel so warm to see their faces and feel their presence again.
EDIT: Oh god. Just watched our New Years video (I didn’t post it anywhere), and the very first thing we say after “HAPPY NEW YEAR!” is “HEEEEY JOHNNAAAAAY!” …
