WHO(’s there): a concentrated explosion of sarah lawrence lesbians (including both actual and those that are mirror images)
WHAT (else): slc-esque performance arty opening act that throws bells at the audience in an attempt to get them to participate

HAPPY PRESIDENTS' DAY
I HOPE YOURS INVOLVED CADBURY EGGS AND HOT CHEETOS TOO
no sign more ominous than happening upon a lone weave in the street - or even worse, half a weave.
Mackshmi
new nickname for me at work :(
and it’s not nearly as endorsed by me as Jokeshmi.
and for the record, if you think i’m flirting with you there’s a (less than) 10% chance that’s true/happening, if even that.
liminal thought for the week: the line between flirting and being sociable/friendly is always liminal. especially since no direct action is ever taken on your part to...
volcano of honey
so a bottle of honey explodes.
and then you’re sticky in all the places.
so, everywhere honey.
arms. legs. toes.
worst worst worst.
and this is why winnie the pooh should exist.
4:12 a.m.
you:
- want to drink all the water
- hate all the people
- want to take off all the clothes
- want all the sleep
- regret having eaten all the pizza
being sarah lawrenced
I get that sometimes it’s an awkward surprise to see people you know in the real world and your first instinct might be to pretend it’s not happening but there’s a limit to being Sarah Lawrenced, and when I’ve gone to both high school and college with you, our mutual friends abound to the point where it makes no sense that we’re not better friends, and we’ve...

Disclaimer: All previously mentioned attributes for little bitches are inclusive. Thus lyd might be A little bitch (/she on frequent occasion throws up like a little bitch), but she’s not a little bitch by the list because THIS little bitch is the non-endearing, non-lovable type of little bitch.
Little bitches (or specifically, the non-Lyd type) - The Pros:
- they inspire potential fatal...
little bitches
-they’re cockblockers
-they listen to john butler and dave matthews band
-they think people are wooed by their awkward crooning along to john butler
-they call you late on a sunday night and when you don’t pick up, they’ll still call at least 4 times in just a 30 minute span
-their default drink is amstel light
-their fucking sign is cancer

it’s a dream of mine to see a fat rat backstroking down the middle of the sewage stream that runs between subway tracks.

An Open Letter to Sebastian
Dear Sebastian,
I’m sorry I poured beer into your hair and spiked it as you slept. I imagine your hair didn’t smell very good this morning. I also realize that spiked hair is not a very attractive style generally and promise to pursue more creative hair ventures if ever put in that situation again. Despite how long we’ve known each other, I guess we’ve never really had the...
once upon a time, i had this haircut.

Nobody Likes You When You're 23
When you have a really cool, new, astrologically-compatible, older friend, then for the first time you feel uncomfortably young and actually wince when you have to admit that you’re only 23.

tru lyfe: i luv breadstix
i like to go to the target at atlantic junction sometimes (/allthetime) only because they have one of those attached pizza hut/starbucks inside (wait, do all targets?) and i really just want the pizza hut breadsticks. there might have even been a few occasions where i pretended there was something i needed at target.
sidebar: pizza hut is kind enough to prominently display a sign indicating that...

THERE AREN'T ENOUGH ANDIE MACDOWELL MOVIES
one of life’s greatest tragedies.
it’s right up there next to why aren’t there more winona movies, why doesn’t jo marry laurie/why doesn’t amy die instead of beth, and why isn’t it cadbury egg season all year round.

your heart is true you're a pal and a confidant
it’s like you’re in the middle of a sorta emergency, only for the whole thing to be that much more complicated by your fever which refuses to break and instead advances into sharp head stabs convincing you for whatever reason that your appendix will burst soon ($$$***DeLir1µM***$$$) and it seems that nobody in your life is reachable - it’s like don’t worry, MICHELLE IS...

Watchi could spend the rest of my life watching this
okay whatever fine yeah sure maybe honey whiskey really is too sweet and kinda gross shut up i don’t care
it's so nasty my trash fantastic
it’s like you’re going through your itunes and come upon a band you’ve never heard of or played and then when you listen to it, you’re like, “whoa, this is lo-fi gold.” so then you think back to that one time that one idiot insulted your itunes and its breadth, claiming you yourself referred to half its content as crap (when really, you’ll admit to not...

a++ expert advice
the only thing worse than being ocd about playcounts is being ocd about not playing certain songs in your itunes so as to avoid changing the ‘last played’ stamp because it reminds you of a specific time and you don’t want to see the date go away.

Dear Alonzo,
I was trying to have a sad/antisocial/emo morning alone yesterday, but you preferred otherwise. This is what I learned from you:
1) You went from aspiring rapper to aspiring producer to aspiring insurance man.
2) You settled for selling your beats to boys in the hood (the hood being New Haven of course) for 40/50 bucks a pop.
3) You use expressions like “gift for gab” and...

moms are so good. and astute.

me: why don’t you like this song? you usually love it when i introduce you to stuff like this.
mom: i like it when that woman sings.

mom: yeah, where’d she go? did he steal her songs?
me: no, but they’re friends. they like each other.

i;m so sorry michelle longo
the only thing that makes sense at 2:30am after 3 bowls of cheese balls, a slice, 3 beers, and 2 shots (dear michelle longo i forgot to confess to you my preemptive drunk sweater shot taken before leaving the apt) is a)i’m not in the least drunk and b)
i love you jesus christ jesus christ i love you yes i do

there comes a day when you go to last.fm and realize that tegan and sara have surpassed joy division in playcount, making them your 6th most played artist. and not only that, but they’re creeping up on rilo kiley. so now, they’re basically neighbors with (& have the power to surpass) beach house and mirah.
and then, the last 3 years of your life/your emotional state are put into...

Just because I look sexy on the cover of “Rolling Stone” doesn’t mean I’m naughty.
As an artist, I would probably go on stage and bump and grind with a dancer. In real life, never.
