“Today, the last living survivors of the Holocaust are disappearing one by one....”
– I think this is a powerful statement and can be applied to anything in history. See every single gender studies course I took in college.
Omg, what the fuck is wrong with you?!?!?! →
I saw Rigoletto as an adult and it has scarred me for life. I would not want my child seeing a “kid friendly version of it”. It’s about a philanderous Duke who seduces the court jesters virgin walled in daughter and then she dies because she’s devastated to be so used sexually! How could they possibly make this kid friendly?????
The music is amazing. I found this...
Things that are making me unbelievably happy right...
Omg, I got my gym membership back. Now that I am not paying a crippling amount for rent, I can afford to go to the gym again.
I know what I am doing at 9 am tomorrow morning. I honestly don’t know how people don’t work out. I have been feeling like I am having a heart attack for the past two months because my metabolism has slowed down and stairs are painful.
“You are just going to have to get used to someone caring about you now that you...”
– Noted because it was the nicest thing someone has said to me in a long time and really made my morning.

For each 4 hours she doesn’t move, it could send an alert to let you know the cat is still alive just asleep.

I was on the initiative for this 5 years ago. They went back and forth over it and I was under the assumption they finally went through with it last year. I guess not.
Moving is so ridiculous....
I can’t get a quote for less than $200. I might as well sell my furniture and buy new shit!
good god, it's Ohhleary's dream job! →
What a broken heart feels like: Some day I will...
Everyday, I awake with a start. Usually around 4 or 6am depending on the day. It feels like I have a 50 pound anvil on my chest… I have to remind myself to breathe in and out. And the feeling doesn’t go away during the day… Then I lay in bed waiting for my 7:45am alarm to go off, in total darkness, as my bedroom doesn’t have windows. Thinking, thinking about everything I...

I saw this quote yesterday and thought, “Psah, public crying.” But then I remembered I too have cried in the subway. But I was younger (heh), and in college, and I recall trying to hide it and shut it away. Feeling shameful and weak, which only worsened the situation. Across from me a middle aged man in a business suit stared at me with consoling...

It's been a stressful two weeks.
Today is like one of those days where my body is definitely feeling the stress. I feel like a skittish cat that’s gonna jump off a building accidentally if anyone says or does anything jarring.
Ever have one of those weeks? Like every time I get an email from someone, it feels like absolute torture. I just said to my coworker, “why is this person bothering me???” in that...

– I always forget how much I love Roger Ebert. (via talix18) (via katoleary)
He goes on to say that he’s assured that Alice Sebold didn’t write the novel as such. But the thing is SHE DID. I hated this book and I hate Alice Sebold’s writing. Everything is about being a victim and...

Brian Van as Snooki!
Funniest Idiotarod team proposal ever.
Seriously, wouldn’t he make an awesome snooki??

Tonight I went to see Avatar alone right after work. My roommate is showing my room so I really can’t be around to hear him wax and wane about how awesome he is when I know he’s had sex with a different girl (and seriously ugly dumb girls) every night this week and you can hear it quite well in my bedroom. He’s so gross and the other roommate is even grosser so moving out while...

Seriously, I can’t think of anything to say as I search craigslist for an apartment. But after last night’s fiasco (and I am really hoping tonight isn’t going to make it a hat trick) I would rather leave sooner than February 1st.
I didn’t get to sleep until 4am, I am beyond tired. My mind is elsewhere.
My apartment makes me want to vomit.
Its 1 am and the shit that is going on seriously makes me sick. 2 fucking nights in a row!! What a scum bag! I can’t believe I have to live here for 3 more weeks in this fucking brothel. Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®
“Proven track record in developing and implementing successful major gift,...”
– File under things that make me want to shoot myself. I have all of these qualifications except this one which is the major one. This would be a total dream job for me.
