I hate Mother’s Day.

By | May 10, 2010

Yep, I said it.  I hate the holiday, even despite the pretty awesome and radical roots of it. I spent the entire day sobbing, looking up adoption stories, and eating boxed macaroni and cheese.  Because, you know, you probably would, too, if you had an (almost) eleven year old out there and if no one [...]

You’re my favorite!

By | December 11, 2008

Hug Machine is perhaps the funniest shit ever. I was introduced to it by a Livejournaler a few years ago, and I still damn near piss myself laughing every time I read it. In it’s entirety: hug machine i see you across the street in the library at a Starbucks or at an emo concert [...]

Floating

By | August 22, 2008

…it’s all my life has really been. Like, yeah, I have some really fucking funny stories and I can usually draw on one no matter the situation, but most people my age have their own families, careers, houses, a good credit score…you know, GROWN UP stuff. I never really wanted to “settle down,” because that [...]

If you were here with me right now… (Originally posted 2.4.08)

By | March 30, 2008

…you’d realize how inaccurate it is to term me as “scary.” I’ve been a bit emotional this evening about relationships.  Like, very “woe is me” type of emotional. It’s because I have the innate ability to get romantically involved with the wrong types of people for me.  Every time I have a breakup, I fall [...]

I HATE VALENTINE’S DAY. (Originally posted 2.15.08)

By | March 30, 2008

I probably hate it because I have never, and I do mean NEVER, had a good one. Blah blah blah can’t get into a decent, healthy relationship blah blah blah. Blah blah blah die alone blah blah blah going to be too old for kids soon blah blah blah. Yeah, you get the drift.

The damn book

By | February 3, 2008

A chapter ended last night. I think that’s the most fitting way to mention this.

Goddamnit

By | January 17, 2008

That’s it. I’m on a self-imposed ban from dating or otherwise romantically or sexually linking myself to anyone. It’s all one night stands for the rest of my life! Woo hoo!

If you call me fucking scary again, I’m gonna kick you in the nuts.

By | December 2, 2007

So, I was going to come here and provide a huge rebuttal to the common thought that I am “scary.” In this rebuttal, I was going to rattle off my insecurities — i.e., I will never be worthy of love — fears — i.e., never getting a grown-up job I like — and conclude with [...]

Frustration with my life circumstances

By | June 20, 2007

Mentally and physically fatigued. Mt. Holly has been good for one major thing: giving me distance from my life. I’ve been able to force myself to sit back and rationally map out some parts of my life. Of course, this hasn’t helped me to accomplish much of anything. I need to begin forcing myself to [...]

Some musings about power dynamics

By | October 26, 2006

I have so much shit going on right now. I’m trying to organize a donation drive with The Feminist Forum for Common Ground Collective. So far, I’ve gotten some responses on it. I’m hoping we can send down a nice-sized donation because I really want the community to get more involved with activism, even if [...]
