Packin

Mooving is sort of exciting. I'm really glad I didn't throw out all those boxes I was inexplicably saving from everything ever a couple a months ago when I wondered why I had so many empty boxes lying around.

Also, am I the only one who feels weird about Osama Bin Laden being killed? Besides the decade long man-hunt being strategically irrelevant, I just can't shake this feeling of disgust associated with the whole debacle. I mean no one even parodied him anymore, which like it or not, speaks loudly. It's like that one time with that one kid where I was just conquering something because I needed to prove something to some intangible idea associated with social mores, only this time it took a lot longer and no one's too sure what all the sweat equity proved or to whom.

Somedays my head is totally a pacifist. Shoulder shrug.

2011 - So far so good.

Oh hey. I'm moving to Chicago in a week. I turned one year older (but feel younger). I bought myself a bike for my birthday, now I need a helmet. I've been good and busy.

Spring Fever

I DON'T WANT TO DO MY STATISTICS HOMEWORK. I WANT TO TAKE A WALK INSTEAD.

Oh Kongregate

I seriously spent the entire afternoon playing a flash zombie game. It's overcast, gosh.

The Poetics of Space

Memories of the outside world will never have the same tonality as those of home and, by recalling these memories, we add to our store of dreams; we are never real historians, but always near poets, and our emotion is perhaps nothing but an expression of a poetry that was lost.

- Gaston Bachelard

I've been imagining myself in various times and places lately. I can't quite imagine what my physical home is going to feel like next month, but my emotional homes are stable enough (for once) that I'm prepared for anything. Bring on the change!

Ooooh through the Roof

I want to go to Greece and study direct democracy (ie anarchism in action) and you know explore and eat dates and soak up the sun and have adventures.

Sometimes I can't take these systems that keep people not only down and out, but really complacent.





I'm feeling underwhelmed. I'd really like to be in awe of something for a hot minute.

Fruit Punches

This weekend I wore a skirt and kissed a cute boy in a closet. I also got to hang out with some of the most quality cats I know.


It was just what I needed.

Daylight Savings

I bought the raddest (cheapest) swimsuit the other day and I think the purchase totally threw off my [cold weather] patience. Oi. I thought I sidestepped the ubiquitous winter blues, but damn it if they haven't crept in something awful. I mean, let's get it over with already. I want to wear a dress and not be freezing. Okay, I'm always freezing, but I want to wear a dress and not actually freeze.

Pizza party tonight to lighten my mood. Don't forget to set back those clocks this weekend and sit under that broad spectrum lamp.

I think we're gonna make it.

<3

Note to Self



Also, your big sister's birthday is this month. Get her something cool, she deserves it.
