yo don't ever think kids with piercings are hardcore

'cause i can pretty much guarantee you they are just as ditzy as everyone else. possibly more so.

like yesterday i bought myself a pretty lil labret with a pink stone. and i was like wow, this is lots of fun!

then this morning at work, i went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror, and oh hey, where did the little bead on the end go?

oh, i have not a fucking clue.

so hours later, i get home and i am like oh, well, back to the old captive bead ring, amirite.

so i'm leaning over the bathroom sink and usually i make sure the plug is in the drain, but today i am living life on the edge, and fuck that shit.

so oops there goes the ball flying out of my fingers and bouncing down the drain.

oh great, good job.

i am amazing.

as much as i pretend to hate him

smallculvert.jpg might be one of my biggest confidants.

he and allison berry are pretty much the only people i tell everything to.

the mitty school was great, thanks for asking.

it was wonderful to see everyone again & i'm really excited for this fall.

and senior haus is freezing at night in the summer.

and my roommate would rather watch tremors 4 than spend time with me.

and wordplay is rill cute.

and when eating Nice Chinese Food you should use chopsticks in the tradition of glonous chinese history and cultual.

sometimes i dream

about sitting on a roof with will bruce when i'm meant to be working besk.

and the young black man who is summer besk captain in my dream gets angry. and i come back to besk and there is a delivery man with a package who either just got there or who the besk captain detained waiting for me.

and i am like oh dear am i supposed to be at besk right now?

and the angry besk captain deducts hours from my pay.

holla at miriam

for lending me a regina spektor cd.

one time this morning i was listening to 'that time' and it was like

hey remember that time when my favorite colors were pink and green

and i was like hey yeah i do.

today my popcorn got stuck in the vending machine and a young gallant not only spent more than five seconds trying to get it out, but personally delivered it to my office after i had given up.

BISON SAYS:

Posted by almeda at 10:02 PM | Comments (2)

can you at all times wear socks

because i'm still scared of feet?

yesterday i cut my nails so short my toes started bleeding.

so one time i bought these flip-flops [slippers] from old navy and i almost didn't buy them because they said OLD NAVY PREPSTER on them. i guess i have an unfortunate tendency to preppiness because i kind of like the colors pink and green together. but the text is not where you can see it when i'm wearing the shoes and i bought them anyway.

today i learned that my heel has basically worn away all of the 'old navy' part, but 'prepster' sits under the arch of my foot and is pretty much undisturbed.
