You sleep with someone on the first date. He maybe just wants sex. You sleep with someone on the fifth date. He maybe just wants sex. You have 5 dates worth of interested when you find out he just wants sex. So, why is this better? This is how it makes me feel. Like I’m “foxy” enough to fuck but not interesting, humorous, or intelligent enough to be worth the effort to date. Even if I’m told I’m super awesome, usually there’s ...Read More
Wants -- 29 Nov 2010 ------------------------------- I want: - consistency - a partner to share my life with, seek advice, make decisions, travel - love and certainty - marriage or some kind of commitment (wedding! party!) - a kid or 2 (probably) - many dogs Read More
Fear -- 21 Nov 2010 ----------------------------- I hate you right now. I hate you for hurting me. I hate you for making me scared. I'm scared of being called needy, of being told "everyone" thinks I'm crazy. I'm even more scared of actually being needy. It feels like such a long time since I've cared so much what another person thought and how another person felt about me. I'm afraid of being told that I can't share my side of the story, ...Read More
Yesterday I wore some short pants. Today I also wore some shortpants. It's the thing to do when you don't want to buy real pants because you're short and you'll have to get them shortened and that will cost money. Also We picked them out and she really rocks my socks straight off. So, here I am posing in trees (pulling a We, actually!) and by trees and with Jay's desk. Also today I decided that Doug's elbow hole in ...Read More

I was recently (read: yesterday) hithered by my boss to his boss's office. They shut the door. Of course I thought I was fired but really they just wanted to tell me that I need to dress more "professionally." I should start by agreeing that I don't worry too much about what I wear to work. We're a bunch of software engineers. I have never, ever seen a client in person in my position at the company. 85% or more ...Read More
I've said it before, I love Mike Huckleberry. Well, his music. He's a pretty rad guy, also, though! Anyway, this song makes me feel good no matter what. I think I could listen to it on repeat for a day. I need some more music like this. And the whole damn album. Send suggestions, folks!! Read More
My mom and "aunt" Gail just drove my dad's old Honda Civic Hybrid up from NC because I bought it. They drove me to work and are off looking for coffee (since I don't drink it) and the Mall of America. This text conversation occurred after they dropped me off: Me: "Wow! I just realized the underwear I'm wearing has a huge hole chewed in the crotch by Ninja!" Me: "Did you find the mall?" Mom: "We r at cEibou having coffee" Mom: "Gail says ...Read More
I’ve got something important to talk about! Here in Minneapolis, street food vendors are not allowed to park on the streets to sell us delicious, sometimes bacon-filled, tasty food items. There is a hearing TOMORROW. PLEASE ATTEND IF YOU CAN! Here is what Carrie from the Chef Shack has to say about this: “The Public meeting is coming up, to determine the future of street food in the greater downtown Mpls area. There is much debate and resistance to this from business ...Read More
