Arbitrary Madness. Artistic Exploration. Dope Things.
About two weeks ago I decided to try being vegan. I think I hoped that something would spark inside me and make me want to stick with it. Saying “I’m vegan” is just so much easier than saying, “I eat dairy and meat substitutes to avoid the chance of stomachache…unless it’s something really good likeContinue Reading “Great ideas.”
The other day I got on my high horse and started ranting about them “youngins” again. What a shame it must be that these young bucks could listen to the radio and not know who SWV was. These same kids who disrespected Missy Elliot when she attempted a comeback last year would never know about theContinue Reading “Who sampled?”
The temperatures have reached their “holy shit it’s cold” phase, millions of people are remarking “gee that snow is actually sticking,” and sleep is life thanks to days so filled with such darkness (mostly literally) that we may evolve into nocturnal creatures. Winter is here, and no, I’ve never watched Game of Thrones, but I’d likeContinue Reading “Winter is here.”
This post will otherwise be known as “why you should just keep your ass at home next time you have a cold and your brain has forsaken you.” So today I went to Target… I know, I know. First mistake. But I was really good today. I only bought things off my grocery list apartContinue Reading “Bad decisions followed by bad decisions.”
Hey folks! December is here and you know what that means? November is over and I’m done with NaNoWriMo, the month-long writing extravaganza that drives writers across the globe to write 50,000 words a month (1667 words a day)! Yay! You may have noticed I took a little hiatus from my blog, but that wasn’tContinue Reading “New beginnings before the new year.”
Dear Hallmark Channel, I am dismayed at your lack of creativity, lack of innovation, lack of pizzazz. You continually disappoint me with your antics. I don’t ask for much. You’d be better than Lifetime if you found as many unique ways to fall in love as Lifetime does to drive a woman to mental instability.Continue Reading “Hallmark Channel, you disappoint me.”
I’ve read posts about how terrible shopping is, but this one is different. I didn’t know that I could hate shopping this much, it just happened. I feel betrayed. Shopping was supposed to be fun. It was supposed to be that thing you do with your friends to be happy. Now it’s the actual worst. ThisContinue Reading “10 Reasons Shopping is the Worst (Especially When You’re an Adult)”
Today while enjoying my favorite pastime – bookstore prowling – I noticed a clutch with the phrase “If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner.” I only hesitated a moment it before another book caught my eye and I moved on. But the phrase stuck with me. IContinue Reading “Mistake, regret, lesson. Repeat.”
Can’t nobody tell me anything about my grandma. I didn’t have the fortune of knowing her as long as others, but I did live with her more than half my life and I think that counts for something. No, I didn’t see all the sides of her, the ways she clashed and crashed with others, butContinue Reading “Happy birthday, grandma.”
Up until now my only reference point for Seattle, Washington was the Twilight movie series, where everything was forest and rain. Perfect for vampires who glitter in the sunlight. I knew a person or two who wanted to come here and I was like, “y tho?” and shrugged it off. Then my boss was like,Continue Reading “Seattle, WA: Day Two.”
