Title means nothing. I just have the song stuck in my head. University grew teeth this week. The work’s coming in like a nor’easter in Maine in January. I am not happy about this. At the sa...

Runaway

I feel so bad that I spend so much time out of the house. But I can’t work here. I tried to read here this morning, and while it was okay for the first chapter, Alaina started a video game where...


So, school is ending up its second week. I have found and landed a Tiny Job (notetaking) and I am proud of myself. I didn’t think I’d get it. I didn’t get the Forensic Mitigation one, after al...


So my weekend plans were to drive on I-5 and research some expensive shoes that are supposed to fix how I walk. Didn’t happen. Friday night, standing in line at Win-Co with Kitten, and I start ...

That 31-day thing

Today, the prompt is, “Am I happy.” And the answer is, I don’t know. I don’t think that’s a good prompt system for me, so I’m going to shelve it. Today, I went to the doctor’s instead of Spanis...

Meh. Again.

First day for three of my classes. Spanish is MWF, and these three are Tuesday-Thursday. It’s nice because I have that day between classes to pump out the work. It’s not nice because the last ...


I guess they mean a snapshot? Right this minute, I am obviously sitting in front of my computer. I just emailed the twins’ math teacher, trying to explain personality quirks and Kitten’s mad das...

The Voice - Edit an Essay!

So, there’s a conference for the English honor society I’m in, and our theme is “finding our voice.” I suspect they mean the edity thing where you develop a style of your own as you go, but my b...


Short answer: fucking everything needs to change. Nothing about how I am living right now is acceptable, except that I’m in school and working on getting better. And I’m making dental appointm...


Well, there’s not much I like about me. I don’t like my body. I don’t like my hair. I don’t like my weight. I don’t like my infernal patience. I don’t like my tendency to overeat. I really hate t...


Not a whole fucking lot, actually. Physically: Um, I’ve got nice fingernails. Usually. They’re broken back right now, but they can grow out almost an inch each on their own, and their color a...


Omg, what. What even. What the fuck. Fine. 10 - I need to go buy the twins new shoes. One twin wore my shoes today. They were not too big. What. I remember when their feet were shorter than...


Yeah, I think it’s gonna take more than 31 days, babe, but whatever. Where do you start on yourself? Description? Fine, I’m female (cisgender) and I’m five foot six and a half. I weigh too much...

Ball-ball, Buffy!

More cooperative writing angst. We’re fighting again (this time “we” is me and Old RP Partner.) She’s definitely mad I dumped her on the site and “ran off.” She expressed this by being angry I’...

Tell a lie, live a lie

So, I told my husband a lie yesterday. We were fighting about birthdays in the middle of Wal-Mart (we do a lot of our fighting out of the house, because the Siamese Death Army cries if I raise m...
