So I’m about to go rent a storage unit to park all my shit until I’m ready to move. I don’t have a ton of stupid stuff, but a lot of vintage items I can’t replace and wouldn’t want to. But anything I’ve bought from Ikea is going on craigslist.
But I’m so damn nervous about this storage unit. My parents had them the whole time I was growing up and we...
It's Christmas.
I’m watching my step-dad help my little brother put together his toy train. And I am wearing a snuggie (thank god so I can be warm AND type this lol). I have the song “Harry Rag” by the Kinks in my head. I’m trying not to think of who I spent Christmas with last year. I can’t wait til many Christmases go by since the one last year so that I never think of it again. Or...

Tonight I used a Dremmel to trim my dog’s toenails. It was the best idea ever. His nails turn into talons because he hates the nail clippers so much that he tries to bite them. But with some treats and praise he sat still for the Dremmel. Tis a Christmas miracle.
I have but one rant: People who use the word “Best” as an ending to letters. How much of a prick do you have to be...

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart … (Okay not really, but we fucked at my Grandma’s house and that was kind of a big deal cause OH GOD WHAT IF SHE HEARD US.)
But the very next day, you gave it away … (Not the next day really, but 5 months later you were back in that shithole state you call home.)
This year, to save me from tears … (I’ll be heavily medicated and...
I’d like to personally punch you in the face.

What is with this tumblr tag of “personal”?
As if you have to excuse yourself for posting something personal on an extremely diverse and customizable platform.
Do you have to separate the picture of someone else’s vacation from the pictures of your own vacation using this flimsy tag? Or should you separate some douchy quote from someone you’ve never heard of...
I decided not to go to Indiana. After the funeral today I’m just not in the mood. A friend of mine died from a heart attack at a young age. It was the best friend of one of my good friends who moved to Indianapolis over the summer, so he’s down for the funeral. I was gonna ride back with him and hang out in Indy for a while but there’s just not enough time. Oh well.
I had a...
Today: 12 hour day of hair (nightmare), GIANT BOWL of marijuana will be smoked upon my arrival home. Much sleeping will occur.
Tomorrow: Seeing my best friend for the first time since August.
Day-after-tomorrow: Funeral. Sad times.
This weekend: Impromptu trip to Indianapolis. Probably much drinking will occur. Also thinking about dropping some acid on the way up there, you know, just to make...

Does someone else live here too?
This morning, right before my alarm went off, I had one of those super realistic dreams where you could absolutely swear it was real.
I dreamed that a girl with long brown hair got in my face and gently woke me up. I said to her in surprise “Who are you?”
She said “Rachel. But that doesn’t matter. Good morning, I am waking you up.”
And then she hugged me and I...

Why does everyone feel the need to say that their dog is a ”blah-blah-pointer-lab-blah-blah-mix”? I understand the incredibly stupid names like ‘Labradoodle’ (although I despise them) because they are a combination of two pure bred dogs. Not 15.
In the not-so-distant past, these “mix” dogs were called mutts.
“What kind of dog is that?”
“I...
moving... ugh
I have the next three days off to pack up a bunch of stuff in my house. The house won’t be sold until at least the end of the month, but I want to have a lot of done NOW. I hate that feeling of “oh shit I’m moving in like 2 days and nothing is done!” and I want to avoid it.
But is that even possible?
I packed TEN boxes tonight, mostly books. Man I have a lot of stuff.
I love how everyone thinks “Bon Iver” is somebody’s name. It means “good winter”, you idiots.
