Things in my life:
I finally found the PERFECT artist to do my tattoo design! I’ve wanted a 4- or 5-inch sprig of marjoram on my bicep, drawn to be like an old-fashioned scientific illustration. And I found this artist who is unfathomably perfect, because not only does she do sweet scientific illustration type stuff, but she also does pen-and-watercolor art in the charming doodly style I...
LIFE IS GOOD
I think that’s just the theme of anything I end up writing about myself. “These things happened and it was good and life is AWESOME ALWAYS.”
These past few days I’ve been busyish, but mostly hanging out with people. I love people. I love how many people stayed for Winter Term! I love chilling with Sci-Fi Hall whenever I want and knowing that there will be...
Things that are delightful:
- lists
- the skirt I am wearing! It is long and patterned and beautiful.
- Going to Hark lunch today to eat with Brian, whom I met at delightful hour last night.
- grog
- The King’s Speech, everything about it
- Strip Apples to Apples (stripples to nipples!)
- Sci-fi hall
- Delightful House
- Delightful hour
- The word “jaunty”

Last night I embroidered much! And sat around and sang with many other people in a huge circle. Oh my god, it was amazing. We had a banjo, an accordion, a drum, a bass guitar, and many acoustic guitars and lots of voices, and it was a complete blast. We sang old whaling songs and pirate songs and at a couple points I stood up and danced a jig! And we also sang such wonderful songs as “Hey...
Last night I got perfectly tipsy, just tipsy enough to have a little more fun and then sober up, and I kissed many people, and they kissed each other, and Carolyn and I demonstrated express consent many times, and it was all very loving and fun. I am enjoying myself LOTS.
I do have bruises today, which I am not very pleased about. I think exposed hickeys are kind of tacky, and I know I’m a...
Back in Town!
I have returned to Oberlin! I love it so much, really I do. I feel giddy, but if I didn’t feel so giddy I think I might be crying. Today I passed three albino squirrels chasing each other up a tree, and it was so entertaining. And three whole albino squirrels! It’s like Oberlin is making up for all the squirrels I missed when I was away.
The plane ride back was uneventful, except for...
THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO INVITE TO FUCK THEMSELVES
So I’m a little angry right now about a few things. To sum up, here are the various elements in my life I would like to invite to go fuck themselves.
1) My lower back. Fuck you. You hurt ALL THE TIME. I’m going to chop off my tits if this doesn’t stop.
2) My ex-boyfriend. Fuck you for changing into a completely different person and not even having the courtesy to let me know....
Happy New Year!!!
Tonight was busy BUSY BUSY busy. I was at the restaurant and on my feet from 1:20 to midnight. And it was SO MUCH FUN.
I did get to see Budi more angry than I’ve ever seen him before, and that was a bit scary. He threw a plate across the entire kitchen. But he had legitimate reason to be upset, and there’s not much you can do in that situation but stand back and do...
