You know…
You know your day isn’t going so well when you’re thinking all morning that there just HAS to be a
Ctrl-Alt-Del function for your life.
Then again, this is coming from a girl who’s actually screamed out “Control-Z!!!” in the middle of a heated debate.
I am so. gawddamn.pathetic. sometimes.

Jimminy.
I was talking to my friend the other day about my (yet again) pushed out plans to go to Korea. She kept on extolling the fact that shopping was going to be phenomenal there and that I would have a blast.
And then she paused, looked at me for a second and said with hesitancy,
“um… yeah… you’ll have to be shopping in the large or extra large size section”
Which pretty much makes me want to clothesline and tackle, kick and generally bowl over all the uber-fey and extraordinarily thin girls there who would likely look at me, call me ahjoomah, call me fat, and recommend that I get eyelid surgery.
ENOUGH ALREADY.
I GOT ENOUGH FUCKING ISSUES.
MY OWN NEUROSIS HAVE OVERSTEPPED THE BOUNDERIES FROM CHARMING TO BORDERLINE DEBILITATING.
The poll of 2,100 women across Asia by Unilever showed only 33 percent of Korean respondents satisfied with their appearance, the second lowest among nine countries surveyed following Japan. Of Korean respondents, 43 percent said they were overweight.
And yes, this will seem very cryptic.
But I think I’ve finally done it.
I’ve hit my wall.
And it hurts. (Because, afterall, walls are quite hard)
And there will be some hiding & hybernating until I get some things figured out.
I think I’ll dub this my 100DayPlan.
Vegas Details – And my whoring out for Appletinis
Because Meri darling asked what it was that i said to the Republicans.
Well, it was around their argument that they were ok with legal/financial rights be associated with gays but the notion of marriage, conventional marriage was not in “God’s” plan because sex is supposed to be about procreation.
To which I asked them “So, if I fucked you, would you wear a condom?”
And they said “Well, yes, of course” (Blushing furiously and then leaning over)
And then I responded “Well then. I’m sorry. I won’t be fucking you because it’s not in God’s plan”
They laughed quite a bit and agreed that I’d won that point. And several other arguments that evening… and they kept on buying me drinks to see if they could convince me change my mind on God’s plans.
Frankly, I won’t fuck a republican no matter *how* drunk I am.
Yup I am up
Vegas will do that to you. Damn it all.
Things I want to scream out @ strangers
The faux hawk is over. Get over it.

#1. Is it a reflection of my age, sense of sentiment, or personal disposition that I’ve taken to focusing on listening to music that have only been highly recommended to me by friends or evoke a particular level of affection or trigger a strong emotional memory associate with people that I care about.
I.am.a.sap.
#2. When in a crowd of people where you might feel remotely awkard, tell the cutest boys in the crowd that you doubt that they can count to 21 with their shorts on. Trust me. you’ll feel better.
And I thought My Week was weird
My roommate and her boyfried just got back from a 3 week long vacation in Peru & Costa Rica.
The last day of their trip included a whole slew of chaos that was topped off with running into and decapitating a little girl’s huge green parrot with a Hyundai.
Yup.
Yeah. My weekend has been pretty chill by comparison.
