Can't we all just get along?
I have only been in 1 real fight before in my life, in 4th grade. I lost a tooth on account of Hannah the Barbarian— that was her fighting name. Last night I almost-possibly-coulda gotten into a fight. At a karaoke bar of all places!
Let me set the scene for you. A girl in a “leather” corset (by corset, I mean the back of her shirt was tied together with strings) with the...

I lose everything.
On any given day, I lose at least 3 things. I probably spend an hour (at least) of every day, looking for stuff. It’s not because I am forgetful. I have a killer memory in fact, and could tell you what you ate for lunch that time we were at Olive Garden that Sunday after church in 1996. (Me: fettuccine alfredo with chicken and spinach and a raspberry lemonade, you:...

Valentine's day XOXO
My mother has been known to forget birthdays a time or two, but never, ever Valentine’s Day. Note the seaweed and barley crackers, plus my fav gumballs!
My heart is so full, I will have to sing instead. You know the words.
“Mama, you’re the queen of my heart. Your love is like tears from the stars. Mama, I just want you to know…loving you’s like food to my...
SNOW DAY
NYC public schools are CLOSED tomorrow, suckers!* That means private schools follow suit. That means no work for me tomorrow. That means I have a two day work week. Happy happy joy joy.
I’ve been spreading the Good News like this: When a teacher or faculty member walks by my desk, I cue up Kool and the Gang’s Celebrate on my computer and say, “Have you heard the...

To whom it concerns, Darlene’s work will be late, it fell on her pancakes and stuck to her plate… To whom it concerns, my ma made me write this, and I’m just her kid, so how could I fight this… To whom it concerns, I lost my assignment, maybe I’ll get lucky, solitary confinement… To whom it concerns, Darlene’s great with the ball, but guys...
In Virginia, the moment there is any talk of snow, everyone rushes to the grocery store and stocks up on milk, bread, and eggs. It’s like a snowpocalypse. The end times. As for me and my house, we will always be VA at heart. Last night after I saw the news, I frantically ordered provisions from Fresh Direct. Now my fridge and larder are full to bursting with:
milk, eggs, orange...

My first post in the new place. Feels like a brand new apartment with shiny floors and no dust but also no furniture. It also feels kind of like a secret hideaway apartment that no knows about! Which I like. But also, I miss you guys! Come visit me!
I haven’t blogged in a grillion years, mostly because Livejournal was depressing me for some reason. And also because I’ve been...
