A short story:

"A girl from Indiana and a girl from the East Coast are sitting next to each other during a flight. The Indiana girl looks at the other and asks 'Sooo...where are you from?' The girl looks at her smugly and says 'A place where we know not to end a sentence with a proposition.' The Indiana girl pauses for a moment, smiles at her and says 'So where ya from...bitch?'"

This will probably happen to me.

I will miss hick accents, four-wheelers, country-style cookin', family, and general American antics.

Au revoir.

P.S. Why do I like shit like this?

I can't even read Japanese.

Lick my twiddle--I'm officially accpeted to study in Strasbourg next year!

YESSSSS.

I'm getting chunky!
I've been waiting for this.

Um...hey? to all you whos' rooms I've loved on virtually (how kinky). I need your help!

I posted my bedroom here here here last summer sometime. I've added tons of new bed linens, a few trinkets and about 39,642,935 more pairs of shoes to the mix, but no real intense changes. I really dig my living space, but, quite frankly, I need art. Badly (as you can probably tell from the pictures). My walls are so plain! I've thought of tons of ideas (b&w photography, big-ass cork-boards, art nouveau posters, sketches, human skin, etc.), but I have this phobia of seriously screwing up my green walls and I haven't been brave enough to hang, well...anything, really. EXCEPT I did hang some sweet patterned origami cranes from my ceiling (AKA--WEAK ART).
( Take a look? )

So, I'm looking to you all for your initial vibes (umm...I don't know what I'm talking about here--just roll with it) as to what could be the best kinds of art for my walls. I know you all are creative! I'm a firm believer in the truly bad-ass ideas that come from this community!

P.S. My sweet boy-love got me the most ( darling ) apron from Goodwill for Christmas (but take note: I'm not his bitch). Sadly enough, it's just hanging over one of my chairs. I don't want to cut it up, but I do want to show it off in my room somehow. Any other ideas?

P.P.S I apologize for such a text-heavy post! Have mercy on me.

So I have a problem. I really like cats, but I can't because...they're cats?

Justine and I have been hiding one in our garage for a few days. It has a very pretty beauty mark on it's widdle mouf like a sultry 40's movie star. Maybe she had an alcoholic step-dad and I'll bet her mom gave her hormones to keep her small and dainty-cute.

PUSSY ABUSE/NEGLECT.

So, basically--if you find a hypoallergenic cat, you should give it to me because I am lonely.

The end.

It is very awkward watching other people hug.

Also, I remember when Modest Mouse was uncool but cool. Know what I mean? That shit went down in like 1998.

That's OLD.

The word spelled g-o-d in French means "dildo."

Ha ha.

"‘That it won’t do; so it’s no use a–trying it on, Fagin,’ replied Nancy. This was said in jest; but if the speaker could have seen the evil leer with which the Jew bit his pale lip as he turned round to the cupboard, he might have thought the caution not wholly unnecessary, or the wish (at all events) to improve upon the distiller’s ingenuity not very far from the old gentleman’s merry heart. 'What I say, Bill,’ replied the lady collectedly.

‘What do you mean by that?’ said Mr. Sikes, looking up in a surly manner.

‘The very thing!’ said the Jew. ‘Bet will go; won’t you, my dear?’

‘That it won’t do; so it’s no use a–trying it on, Fagin,’ replied Nancy."

I just got this in an e-mail from FlowerLand International. Their e-mail also claimed they could offer me a high-paying job if I was 'sociable' and 'skillful.' I am indeed skillful, generally-speaking.

I think they sell pot or something.

I also think I am in love with the Jew character in their story.

I SHOWERED (NAKEDLY) IN A COMMUNAL SHOWER FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER IN THE HISTORY OF MY LIFE!
