Amazing!

I have had a long term love affair with the movie Labyrinth for as long as I can remember. It was my favorite movie when I was 8 and it's my favorite movie now. This girl, however, loves it even more than me! Look at this work of art!


And if you don't like it, screw you! Go away and rot in the Bog of Eternal Stench for all I care.

Weekly Shudder

Look at this thing.


What is it doing? It's really cute and really creepy, but I don't know which category holds the majority. I can't stop looking at it. Help!

You Were Always On My Mind

So, I haven't spoken to my parents in almost a year. It's a strange thing to not have contact with your immediate family. The weirdest part is that I feel mostly stagnant about the situation ... now.

I've been so hurt by my family over this time, I wouldn't even know how to have a relationship with them if they even tried to contact me now. Still, Mother's Day was an emotional day for me. I don't know why I thought I would hear from a mother who missed her daughter, when mine obviously does not.

I was disappointed from the lack of communication I didn't expect. I feel like an idiot. I like feeling stagnant better.

I remember being innocent. Sometimes, I forget how much I miss it until I walk by The Discovery Store. This is what bittersweet feels like.

Hyperbole and A Laugh

Oh man you guys, did I just stumble across the best blog ever or what. For those of you who do not peruse the inter webs for weird blogs that make you laugh so hard you pee, worry not! I have done the work for you by finding this excellence, which is kind of like a mix of Natalie Dee (of Toothpaste for Dinner fame) and how I think to myself! My friend sent me the link to this blog and when I took a look at the first post, it pretty much shattered my universe with hilarity. You may thank me later.

Just Not That Into You

With Valentine's Day about to roll around again this year, I feel the need to discuss an interesting kind of relationship I've been involved in for the past few months. I'm not talking about the basic boyfriend-girlfriend situation or the slightly disturbing thing I've got going with my wittle kitty babies, I'm talking about the roller coaster of emotions that is the job interview process.

I recently left the job I was at for over 4 years to pursue my education, thinking it wouldn't be too hard to find something part time to cover what my student loans didn't. Boy, was I wrong. For the last 4 months I've been going insane, picking apart each interview like a blind date. I've obsessed over each question asked and answered, assured myself my first impression was good enough and prayed for a phone call the next day. Then, when one didn't come ... I resorted to stuffing my face full of preservative rich snack foods and watching movie marathons on the Lifetime Channel. You know, the usual follow up to rejection ...

I'm telling you, this is the worst "relationship" I've ever been in.

I hate it.

I'm over it.

Happy Unemployment Awareness Day!

Waste of Time

Eyes meet, blushed cheeks
a rush of blood from handshake to heart,
soft scent, breathe deep
a future lived before it's start.

You could be the one,
before love ruins it
and I'm left stabbing my lime in a bar somewhere.
