Uhm,
Weird dream. W e. i. r. d.
My contacts are so much glarier than my last! So now that it is dark I can to peer through extraneous beams of light. Mer.
If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself, tell yourself...

I GRT CONTACTS TODAY
I’ve had to wear glasses fr months
Best part about oils
Leave your mess out
Who cleans brushes
Not me nooooooo
I am okay with how this is coming. It changed from my sketch a bit but I really like what I am painting on.
JM, it’s the shell thinger.
It's okay to paint topless women, yeah?
This will help alleviate my roommate’s occasional inquiry regarding my sexuality, oh indeed.

I knew it was a good place because they were playing Star Wars in the shop.
They will fix, yes.

If ever a husband adheres himself to me and infects me with a child, I could see us moving back to my hometown to raise it. He could shovel the snow.
Good old Mountain Java.

I missed this place. The wobbly table and the fern tickling my back. And Gerrit popping in to show me this badass trashbag. Having a delicious Sipping Chocolate and working on my play. I love pleasantness.
I miss having dominion over this place, plugging in my iPod, making little cappuccinos for myself, tapping the keys of the register with dexterity, and commanding all aspects of...
I love Indian and Thai food. My mouth is so pleased.

There is no Facebook General Hospital that charges 150 shares for a procedure. There is no actual hospital that operates likewise! CAN’T YOU SEE!? You are literally making no difference! I don’t understand how people even think this is real.

I am an adult
Pretty much
But when I look on my room it looks so girlish
IT’S MY GOD DAMN SHEETS!
Same ones I had when I was like twelve, same duvet cover I’ve had all adolescence.
I am oddly relieved.
I could get some cool Ikea ones, but this occurred to me because I was looking at the television and a lovely couple had white sheets and a white duvet cover.
So, white it is.

Dear Coquette,
Do you feel there’s any question in the world that can’t be answered? Of course. Some of the deepest and most profound questions can’t possibly be answered at our current stage of evolution. Anyone who says otherwise is peddling a religion.

I have been thinking a lot lately about what it is that I will miss the most about Europe. Will it be the majestic tragedy of the ruins that is so integral to their society, or will it be the effervescent culture that seems to permeate from their cavalier thinking? Could it be I will miss the lack of responsibility that being a nomad has afforded me, or the friends that I have...
