Rambles

Polite

“Sorry straight edge friends, I have to hit this bong!”- CBeck.

Too many pancakes.

The other day at work I asked a woman “Are you finding everything alright today, Ma’am?”

“Yes,” she replies.

LIAR! Is my instant thought. Of course you’re having a hard time finding everything, everything is a pretty hard thing to find in one store.

Jeez.

If you’re going to cry you should do it in the shower.

Crying in the shower is way better than crying in your room and infinitely better than crying in public. You can just tell everyone that your face is red because you like your showers nice and hot. That way you don’t have to explain to everyone that you feel inadequate, and that the person you love can give you paintings but not his heart, and that you don’t know why you don’t have a strong relationship with your grandmother, and you’re scared to be vulnerable, and that you can only listen to songs that stink of heartache.

Crying in your shower is just a lot easier.

Shadows.

tiffanyhoran:

I am more than just a drawer of shadows and memories in someone’s cupboard or under their bed. I am more than just a girl you once knew. I am myself and that’s all I’ll ever be. The phone in my room rang once, then stopped. This isn’t the first time.

I can’t understand why everyone here has a phone provided for them, they didn’t leave a list of call charges, they didn’t explain it to me. I think tomorrow, I should ask about it. I’m in so much pain right now. I feel physically sick. I have a lecture tomorrow.

Smoke and Write These

A   “Oh dude, I think I spilled my drink!”
B   “Can you hand me that pink lipstick
C   in the very top left pocket in my purse?”
D   “The guy out there, the really good
E   looking one, got it for me, paid and every
F   thing” “he sure as hell better dance!”

F   We moved like one to the most intense dance,
A   and he didn’t care that I had my drink
E   running down my top, or that every
B   one had to help me walk home. Her lipstick?
D   I broke it taking it out of the bag. Good
C   job, Captain!  Unknown fate of the purse.

C  Smeared? Don’t think so. It’s a leather purse,
F  Oh well! Was that before or after my dance
D  with Jose Cuervo? The less than good
A  morning would be inevitable. But my drink
B  kept coming, and i would lose my lipstick
E  on the edge. The bathroom screamed for me every

E  ten minutes. Bladder empty. Bladder full. Could every
C  one in my liver, take a breather for a minute? I purse
B  my lips as the salt hit a crack. The lipstick
F  stain was less than becmoning. I wanted to dance.
A  Squint. gulp. Squint. gulp. One last drink!
D  He was already on the floor, and he looked good.

D  We flowed with the sounds, and nothing ever felt so good.
E  They all stabbed us, full of curiosity, every
A  ones eyes looked the same. I let them drink
C  it all up. I remembered protection in my purse
F  and how all i wanted to do was to take this dance
B  home, strip naked, and have him remove my lipstick.

B  When I woke up that morning, lipstick
D  was covering all bedroom linens in a really good
F  shade of red. I remembered doggy bag dance
E  partner, but then i knew he was gone, every
C  bit of him. There was an extra beer in my purse.
A  9am, in a robe on the balcony taking a drink.

B    E  I put my lipstick on again and every
D    C  one says “good” so it goes in my purse        
F    A I’m going out again to dance because maybe he’ll buy me another drink.

Binomial Nomenclature

Somewhere in between naming Pluto and naming everything else, humans kind of stopped appreciating the beauty of actually getting to name things. People, I feel, used to have a good grasp on how to properly name things. Planets more specifically I guess.

I was reading something earlier on new planets, how scientists have taken all these pictures of a planet actually being formed somewhere, very far away from here. It’s a very young star and they’re calling it “LRLL”.

Now, I don’t know if that is just a temporary name or if they’re planning on keeping it that, but if they do… I’m going to be kind of disappointed. No scratch that, I’m going to be incredibly disappointed  Seriously, at least Pluto sounds like some thought was put into it! LRLL? Come on, we can do better. We deserve better names for the celestial bodies floating around us!

I should start some sort of campaign…
