B is for Breakdown
I am sitting here on my bed crying right now, for so many reasons. For Traveler, being in Europe with his ex and not even bothering to text me Happy New Year (which it is where he is right now). For The Roommate and wondering if we will ever be able to be friends again, and trying to figure out if I threw away a great friendship on a boy who at the moment is causing me nothing but unhappiness. For...

N is for New Years 10+5
My New Years themed 10+5 features the 5 most important events in my life in 2008, as well as my 10 favorite (not the best ones, certainly, but favorite) songs of 2008
The death of my Aunt Linda
This affected me profoundly. She got sick around this time last year, and she was dead in August. She was my favorite relative, I actually met her before I met my dad. Her death taught me that life is so...
Yo
cardinalcave:
So this is day three, no smoking. What a trip.
i decided that now that most of the sweating, hacking up, coughing, feeling like the walls were coming in on me,
that i would write some tunes about it- something to keep me busy.
i am working on that now. I will post what I get done- vid style as soon as i am coughing less and can manage.
strangely, and this going to sound weird,...

P is for Psycho
I’m trying really hard not to be. But when the boy you like tells you that he’s going to hang out in Sweden with the girl he almost married, whose family loves him and gave him all kinds of Christmas presents that he’s raving about, at their summer home where there is no cell service and no internet (and thus no way for him to get ahold me/me to get ahold of him) and...
somuchsass:
I’ve been applying to jobs all day, and they all require me to have a Master’s degree and have 10 years of experience. So basically, what I gather is that if I had started working when I was 12 years old instead of pretending to be Janet Jackson while dancing on top of my Minnie Mouse bedsheets, I would totally be employed right now.
I always wonder when employers expect us to have...
A Four-Letter Word
sarahchristine:
srsly:
Slut — 1: a slovenly woman : SLATTERN 2 a: a lewd woman; esp : PROSTITUTE b: a saucy girl : MINX Ah, “slut.” A compact little word, forceful even in the way it sounds, starting out with a hissing sibilant and pushing off of the tongue through the L and U, and then that nastily crisp T. “Slut.” Say it a few times out loud. Roll it around in your mouth....

C is for Christmas
My big presents this year were a Wii Fit (yay!) and an Apple Store gift card. But the best present of all has been getting to spend the holidays with the people I love. Hope all y’all out there are having a lovely holiday season with much togetherness and good times! Merry Christmas!

I asked for my DVDs back, but what I really wanted was for you to return all the love I gave you.

S is for Snow
Any time it would like to stop snowing would be great, thanks. It makes me nervous to drive in so much of it since it’s been a long time since I drove in this kind of weather. In other news, Traveler is off to Europe for two weeks, and I got back from the dentist this morning with a new dentist appointment in two weeks, so I can get a filling and have another one replaced. I brush, I floss,...

D is for Disappointment
Traveler and I have both written apologetic emails to The Roommate for what happened Wednesday night of last week, and we have finally received responses. He got a brutal email basically telling him to fuck off and die, and I got an email masterfully designed to play on my weaknesses. As a Catholic (a very bad one, that has not been to Mass in years, but I was raised in the church nonetheless) and...
