'I've got skeleton puns mastoid. Actually, they're a little hard to come up with, so that might be a fib...ula. I had my xiphoid looked at today. Nothing was wrong, it was just a long process. ...
Today I discovered that my favorite gardens are now free for students. Which is great for me because they're perfect for relaxing. There's a quiet place there full of swings called the Cathedral of...
sittapygmaea Thanks! I'll start small, that sounds good. Also I may have mentioned this before, but I really like your avatar/username. I've missed seeing nutchatches a lot since I moved further...
I wish I could set some boundaries with my friends. Like, my biggest pet peeve is I don't like being called stupid, even in the most joking way. But I feel like I'd get called out for being too...
I want to post regularly again, but I keep deleting and getting frustrated every time I come back. I haven't been writing lately either. I think it's because expression is a form of knowing and...
SuedeSwede My thoughts exactly. Gender feels like a weird ritual sometimes, I wish it was more casual. Part of the reason I posted in the first place was because of a customer I'd helped earlier...
I just want to be the size of a galaxy so I can eat all the stars and gas giants without them noticing and getting upset. Is that so bad? Isn't that what love looks like? Isn't that what...
Why are gender roles even a thing. Look. It's great if you're comfortable being traditionally masculine or feminine. But don't cut down people who don't fit your expectations. (Based on a weird...
I guess getting to know people is like reading a book. It takes time and you may not understand certain parts. Once you know them pretty well it's like you've finished the book, but you'll always...
The past is gone, and cannot harm you anymore. And while the future is fast coming for you, it always flinches first, and settles in as the gentle present. This now, this us, we can cope with that....
Mostly when I get a compliment or criticism it throws me completely of guard. I must not be very self-aware. Anyway, things have been good lately. I don't feel so out of control anymore, but I...
This is the kind of city where people write weird haikus under the highway bridges. Anyway, if you keep walking past the bridge and through all the brush by the creek there's a part where all the...
No one tells you how bluebonnets smell. It's like honey, and somehow warm. An individual flower has no scent, only the big fields. Even then, it's pretty mild, but so wholesome. Just thinking about...
I think I might try asking out a really close friend of mine. I just realized that when I pictured myself with anyone else it didn't feel right. Or maybe I shouldn't, I don't want to make things...
I found a rope swing hanging over a little waterfall today, so I had to try it even though the water was freezing. It was nice, though, because it's super warm here after being rainy for awhile. My...
I imagine my older self would wop me over the head with his cane and then say something along the lines of Stop worrying so much, spend more time by the ocean, and tell people you love them. ...
attic That recipe sounds gorgeous. Plus it's been super rainy here, so soup sounds wonderful. I will let you know how it turns out! Sage del Viento Mine is about the same, haha. We should join a...
I've grown an awful beard. I don't know exactly why. Why not. It's good to mix things up sometimes, even if I was better off before. And maybe it isn't too awful. It can be a part of my 'try new...
Shamelessly watched Amelie with a warm drink. It's been one of those days. To be honest I'd gotten so nervous about everything that there wasn't much point in doing anything else. That's just how...
M: 49 f: 74 a: 68
I'd never do such a thing. *banging noises and cries for help from my locked closet* QUIET IN THERE. Sorry about that it's just the...rats.
People always have really emotional conversations outside my apartment when it rains. It's very dramatic. Maybe I'm an extra in a romantic comedy without knowing it. I wish spring could just go on...
I felt weird looking back through a couple of sketchbooks that I've kept. They weren't even that old, but I felt so distant from some of the things I'd drawn and written. Especially from all the...
I'm having second breakfast at 3 in the afternoon and I cannot be stopped.
I'm probably a bit of a loon :p But I like kinglets a lot, they're probably one of my favorites. Snipes are strange, they're great. I also really like whip-poor-wills and other nighthawks....
No, not at all, or maybe just occasionally. If I need to make an important decision that I have enough time to really consider, then maybe. For little things like what to make for dinner or what to...
Close :p Austin is sort of a southern Narnia. The city seems to have made a lot of effort to preserve historical things, so there's these weird little pockets of magic hidden all over the place.
Sometimes I make puns so awful that I'm secretly proud of them for weeks. Mainly because I'm usually not very good at making puns, so when my mind actually manages to put one together, it's a sort of...
Despite what one of my professors says, I really do not think there's one right way to enjoy a book. In fact, I think it's silly to look down your nose at people who enjoy a book just for plot or a...
Strained relaxation, aggravation.
Long walks surrounded by nature. The very satisfying way ice crackles in a fresh glass of water.
I'd forgotten how much I liked this place. I feel better just reading through everyone's posts, I don't know why. It's just relaxing somehow. I spent a few hours worrying in a treehouse today and...
Spaghetti. Mm, mm, mm...speaking of, I now have an idea of what to make for dinner tomorrow.
I've dug myself into a deep hole.
Every piece of fruit anyone's eaten spent an entire growing season bathing in sunlight somewhere. It's a comforting idea for me, just rows and rows of trees full of fruit that's waiting to ripen. ...
I'm aggressively procrastinating. Which is exactly like regular procrastinating, but I'm very aware of all the things I need to do and I'm sitting here doing nothing to spite them.
I'm thankful for my legs. They get me where I'm going and take me away from where I don't want to be.
I'm putting off doing things because it's been such a great day to drape myself over things and doze. Park benches. Large rocks. Any sort of chair or cushion. Also I've got a small sack full of...
The world seems cleaner after a few days of winter rain.
Some thoughts about a few books I've read recently (I kind of binge-read over the holidays). Maybe spoilers? The Elegance of the Hedgehog: I kind of liked it. I sort of liked how it read, but I...
I feel like I need to do something, but I'm not sure what. Not in the 'oh I need to do laundry' sort of way. Something that feels like it should be obvious. It's important. I have a sense of not...
I just want to take my dog and live somewhere alone in the mountains miles away from anywhere.
I don't know exactly why, but this song has been helping me calm down when nothing else does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnzHOsiaJns Music is so strange. How do our brains manage to...
I just want to crawl into a dumpster. Throw me in the trash. Oh my god I just realized what I've become http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120117061845/muppet/images/5/5b/Oscar-can.png It...
I'm having a hot drink while spending some time drawing and reading this evening. Sometimes the thunder cracks outside, and it's wonderful. Perfect way to end the day.
Blah, went through a bad time. Hope it's over now, some things are just bound to happen every once in awhile. Fear of failure, no joy in success. Not a good combo.
I want to melt and sink down into the earth. Rebuild myself into stalagmites somewhere down in the cool empty spaces. Also I'm very, very bad at meditating.
KindOfBlue06 Yesss, I hadn't thought of that. I feel merry already just thinking of all the puns; it will be done :D
Sargon Aww, haha, it's nice to know somebody else has had some salamander troubles :proud:
I'd never seen a salamander before. And what was it doing in a parking lot? I kept walking, trying not to think about it too much, but I couldn't just leave it, it would get run over or stepped on. ...'
