Dear Asshole at Work
I’d say “You know who you are,” but you probably don’t. Your head is so far up your own ass that I am quite certain you are unable to see what an insufferable douche you are.
That being said, back the fuck off. We. Do not. Like you. You aren’t clever. Or funny. Or cool.
You’re a tool. A dick. A douche. So get over yourself and stop giving my sister shit....

“I will be damned if I’m going to eat salad with dressing on the side for every meal for the rest of my life just so that I can squeeze into a dress that some magazine says is the right size for my height. How do THEY know what the right size for my height is?

POISON.

Whenever I complain about how females are portrayed in mainstream superhero comics, inevitably half a dozen people pop up to tell me this:
“Men are idealized in comics, too.”

There's something beautiful
In the way you wrap your words around a rhythm only you can hear, although I feel its echoes if I listen hard enough.
There’s something aggressive about the bare intimacy you offer up when you choose to share, with nothing but meter to hide behind.

Presents!
Gabi’s 21st birthday: Check!
Gabi’s graduation: Check! (Yay two birds with one stone.)
Dad’s birthday: Know what I’m getting, still have to actually go get it.
Father’s day: Uhhh….
Myself (for not strangling children 2 weeks in a row): Undecided, but definitely happening.
Gravity rules my life
Up up up becomes down down down.
Decisions, decisions...
Leap up and RA at TiP East? Or spend the summer at home, making money and hanging out with my friends like I intended (since I am going to spend an entire semester not seeing anyone)?
