don't worry, i'm not addicted yet

Early morning incoherency

  • Morning Me: Oh no! It's snowing, and so cold!
  • C: I know. I thought we were past this. It was so nice last night.
  • Morning Me: *spots snowmen* Aw man, those poor snowmen! Left out over night--I bet they're freezing!
  • C: Um, well, I imagine they're okay. They are snowmen.
  • Morning Me: Oh. Right.

Yet another internet distraction. Isn’t this great? by ImAwake2

Indeed! What a way to spend winter break!

What is your favourite book?

“The Picture of Dorian Gray” by Oscar Wilde.
Though my favorite book of poetry is “The Captain Lands in Paradise” by Sarah Manguso.

Ask me anything

If you could wake up as anyone tomorrow, who would it be?

Me. I don’t want to be anyone else. I might like to spend the day with someone and converse about all sorts of things, but I would never want to wake up as anything other than some form of my very own self.

Ask me anything


Over-educated youth FAIL

When I was a little girl I thought Neapolitan Ice Cream was Napoleon Ice Cream. For years I tried to figure out the chain of associative logic that would link Napoleon to ice cream. Years. And for years I never realized I was simply misreading the text. Over-educated youth FAIL.

Neapolitan Ice Cream

Neapolitan Ice Cream

Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte

Note the difference between the two.

Why Twitter is pretty awesome.

Dear World,

I love you. This is one of the many reasons why. Your sense of humor pwns.

Sincerely,

A conversation at 3 a.m.

  • Me: You feel emotions deeply, that is perfectly alright.
  • Ems: Sometimes I wish I were shallow as hell, though.
  • Me: What would that get you? Herpes?
  • Ems: A lot less pain, a lot more itching.
  • Me: Nope, I tried. I just can't see you as a shallow person.
  • Ems: Damn. Do you think I can have a personalitectomy?
  • Me: Is that covered by your insurance? Also: NO.
  • Ems: <3

Pickle struggles

afoolishwit:

Me: (struggles to open a jar of pickles)
My brother: Need help?
Me: No, I got this. (five minutes later) I guess it would help if I took the plastic seal off the top, huh?
My brother: Ladies and gentlemen, a college graduate.
Me: LIBERAL ARTS

This reminded me of something. As a special addition to my post “My Mother’s Special Brand Of Wisdom” I will share with you another of her pieces of advice for me.

Mom on why boys don’t like me and how to fix it:

Mom: Sooo, any cute boys?

Me: No.

Mom: That’s because you’re scary.

Me: Pardon?

Mom: Sometimes you should let the boy open the pickle jar. Y’know, so he feels like he has some power.

Me: Great! The next time I like a boy I’ll go up to him, tap him on the shoulder, give him a jar of pickles and ask him to open it, *then* ask him out. Why didn’t I think of that before?

Mom: Beats me.
