It was really fun seeing you on an elevator today! ;)
OMG YES! super fun and truly a highlight of my day!
if i wasn’t in such a crappy mood i would have stepped out and we would have supersparklyfun time — but alas, there was pita grill waiting for me in the lobby and the elevator was already running local, so i would not have...

beer and cheese.
that is my dinner.
a fine dinner, indeed.
i’ve had a crappy day that was topped off with — and this is no joke — a seat on the bus surrounded by obnoxious, young carnies. legit carnies. i think they were on their way home for a short break before going off and doing more carny-ing.
i am very amused by the responses to my fandom lessons at work post — and i will...

drst replied to your post: when tumblr is not good for me
I wish I had something helpful to say, but this is a problem for FA in general & it bugs me too. fancybidet and Lesley Kinzel have both attacked this problem, so you’re not alone in thinking the demand for beauty is b.s. *hugs*
thanks hon. and i don’t mean to be all anti-FA either. i’m just so tired of the...

IA, people can be amazing whether they are beautiful or not. The two are not the same thing.
It’s not. And i’m just so tired of this whole “everyone is beautiful!” movement - as if there is something seriously wrong if you don’t think of yourself as beautiful. it’s fine to accept yourself in...

when tumblr is not good for me
[[MORE]]
in one scroll, i hit two “redefine beauty! you’re all beautiful” posts and the moving piece by the lovely 22-year old yale student who just died.
i don’t remember which i read first, but i’ve been in this cycle and angry-sad-angry-sad-angry.
i hate the fucking “you’re beautiful!” posts. i’m not an...

Yesterday’s productivity was shot down today. I got some more work done, but have been knocked out by a combo of oogy and pollen the size of cotton balls.
I need to do some revisions to one of the chapters I finished yesterday, and get back into the Roseanne chapter. Then the movie. I need to get out 6k today.
I should brew me some coffee.

Joe Biden on grief →
austinkleon:
Vice President Joe Biden, in a moving speech to families of fallen troops on Friday, recounted the dark days following the tragic deaths of his wife and daughter and talked about having thoughts of suicide.
This is a really moving piece, but especially for anyone who’s struggled with depression and thoughts of suicide. The thing that pulled Biden out of his depression was when a...

It just really needed to be refreshed. Tattoos on feet are kind of weird I guess, so it looked pretty faded in parts. I don’t know exactly what I want next, it kind of changes every few months, which the main reason I haven’t done it yet. I think I might get some words at some point though.
What’s your tattoo? Tattoos?

what is your tattoo?
Just a couple of monochrome seashells on my right foot. They’ve been there for so long (6 1/2 years) that it feels almost like they just sort of naturally grew there. But now, of course, I am feeling that post-tattooing high, so I desperately want to go get another one right...

Would they have planned an Anne of Green Gables party for Season 2? (I listened to JSC on The JV Club podcast and she mentioned her love of Anne that I share.) I’ll think of things … They rock!
i’m not trying to be taunty — but i think the answer to this will be so far better than anything you could have expected :)
so, being on the phone with Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Clair is just like being in a scene on BFF. fabulous.

stillscape asked: There were more than 400 species of animal at the National Zoo in Washington, and none of them were platypuses. None of them was a platypus? It sounded awkward to Ben no matter which way he said it. The point was, Leslie was disappointed in the zoo's lack of web-footed, billed, egg-laying mammals (they didn't have an echidna either). It took a while, but Ben finally found a realistic...

God, what did women even do before bras? Just walk around occasionally stopping friends like, “Hey, can you hold these for me for a second? I’m tired of carrying them around,” or what?
i just went into my co-worker’s office to make her fix my bra.
awesome rack + small shoulders = annoying strap issues.
