five minutes til midnight.
Usually I give you guys a recap of all my moments at the end of the year; my favorite memory, my worst show, the numbers if boys I made out with… But this year I just didn’t. I worried myself sick about deadlines for Dob and assumed lost best friends and unanswered text messages, and never got around to just..breathing. Ima fretter, I make hasty decisions as long as my heart is the...

So. Who do you love? I haven’t written lately. I’ve been…living. Ya know, I mentioned that whole ‘do it then tell you guys’ theory. It’s going alright but, I miss you. So to catch up a little, the Christmas marathon in my hometown was stellar. My 6-year old cousin and I totally nailed the Dirty Dancing lift after intense training, and I consider my life pretty...

In the midnight hour, I can feel your power.
why do you do what you do? do you even really understand what it is? because I don’t. Then I realized…I wasn’t alone.   I think I’ve been alive for a thousand years. I feel like I was forward in colonial fashion, that I spoke out against the red coats, and that my heart raced around in the Salem witch trials. I fell in love with Jay Gatsby then Johnny Rotten, and...

Cause your simple toy caused a scene like this.
Girls make boys cry. But not until they have done plenty of it themselves. What is it that makes us so desperate for answers? For endings to things that we can’t even pinpoint the beginning of. Why do girls seek the smallest shreads of evidence, while boys only give those validating looks when no one else is around to witness them? And why then, do girls think so hard about these alleged...

I am losing sleep again.
There’s no one like This Condition to make the mundane seem more than ordinary. They have this way of making my day-by-day seem far cuter when it’s in their amplifiers. There’s no one like Mike McG to sit on the new couch in the basement and play all the Rocket to the Moon songs he knows.  He has a way of playing only the prettiest notes when he’s trying to get my attention. And of course...
