Updates.
Today was good.
Tomorrow I’m taking the GRE and I just can’t wait to get it over with so that I can resume leisure reading.
I am married.
Just found out that I will be living with a Swedish girl in England!

Maybe 2012 is my excuse.
The fact that the world will always be there (at least while I’m alive) is both the reason why it comes first, and the reason why it shouldn’t.

I only get to see you before I leave if your grandmother dies between now and the 13th. Awesome. How am I supposed to hope for such a thing?

i only do this with really vivid dreams.
To see a bear in your dream, symbolizes independence, the cycle of life, death and renewal, and resurrection. You are undergoing a period of introspection and thinking. The dream may also be a pun on “bare”. Perhaps you need to bare your soul and let everything out into the open.
To see a spider in your dream, indicates that you are feeling like an outsider in some situation. Or...

It’s just straight-up wrong that gossip about my friends gets to my thirteen year old sister.
As sharp as I sting, as sharp as I sing, it still soothes you, doesn’t it? Like a lick of ice cream.

staceyinthebox asked: I'm the exact same. I felt like I had to justify why I hadn't read TKAM: "We never read it in school... I don't know why", but it's true! I've now read it and I'm glad I did - very enjoyable.

See, I feel like a big idiot because I’m reading To Kill a Mockingbird for the first time. I’m only a little more than halfway through because I’m slightly embarrassed to read it in public. I feel very behind in getting to this book, and while it’s an American classic, and it is appropriate for adults as well as high school kids, and I know no one is thinking less of me...
I’m still these nervous feet and heart of stone. Forget this dead man’s town.
“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves:...

I just finished Joy Williams’ The Quick and the Dead. That shit didn’t make any goddamned sense. Almost surreal at times, which I can get down with if it’s Kafka, but this was no Kafka. I mean, I’m lucky that I read for sentences and not so much for stories, otherwise I would have never gotten through that. Although, I did enjoy the characters. They were almost too...

"The Straightforward Mermaid" by Matthea Harvey
The straightforward mermaid starts every sentence with “Look … ” This comes from being raised in a sea full of hooks. She wants to get points 1, 2, and 3 across, doesn’t want to disappear like a river into the ocean. When she’s feeling despairing, she goes to eddies at the mouth of the river and tries to comb the water apart with her fingers. The straightforward mermaid has already said to...
