August 31, 2009
Have you ever licked the back of a CD to try to get it to work?
...Why, no, as a matter of fact. I haven't. Tonguing things is not typically my first shot at fixing them. Maybe that's been my problem all along.
What's the largest age difference between yourself and someone you've dated?
Um. I once went out on a date with a dude 6 years older than me. He was lame.
Ever been in a car wreck?
Maybe. Maybe like... three.
Were you popular in high school?
Not really until senior year, which I can kind of understand. I've recently seen pictures of me when I was a senior and God Damn. No wonder. But, even though I love hanging out with people, I've always really enjoyed my alone time.
Have you ever been on a blind date?
No, I have not. I'm pleased with that.
Are looks important?
Obviously if you look like you've been beaten about the face and neck with a broken bat every day of your life, you're gonna need a really fucking awesome personality to make up for it.
Do you have any friends that you've known for 10 years or more?
Yes, actually. That's sort of the threshold for friendship. You're not really a friend of mine until you can say you've put up with me for 10 years. Everyone else is still here on trial basis.
By what age would you like to be married?
The last couple of months have had me thinking. I'm pretty sure I don't ever want to get married. And when I say "pretty sure" I mean "entirely certain."
Does the number of people a person's slept with affect your view of them?
A little, but what business is it of mine?
Have you ever made a mistake?
Aaaaahahahahahahahaha.
Are you a good tipper?
Sometimes. And when I say sometimes, I mean usually. Simple math eludes me sometimes, however.
What's the most you have spent for a haircut?
$25. Which, speaking of, needs to happen again soon. I'm starting to look like a homeless.
Have you ever had a crush on a teacher?
I don't know if "crush" really covers it. I have really admired a few of them, however.
Have you ever peed in public?
I maintain that if you are drunk and no one is around to see you do it, it never happened.
What song do you want played at your funeral?
Something Tom Waits, to capture the batshit nature of life and the absurdity of leaving it. Otherwise, something really really touching that'll make every god damn body cry. Sob for me, bitches.
Would you tell your parents if you were gay?
Absolutely. I maybe have before. I mean, in jest, but that's the kind of dad I have. Hannah and I once spent most of a dinner making "that's what she said" jokes back and forth in fits of laughter while Dad sat in bemused silence in the corner. I'm pretty sure he'd take a "Dad, I'd rather fuck women" in stride.
What would your last meal be before getting executed?
A 25-course behemoth of a meal that includes chorizo, menudo, gumbo, dirty rice, jambalaya, shrimp cocktails (both American style and Mexican style [puerto penasco for the win]), lobster bisque, crab legs, fried chicken, pancakes, waffles, crepes, yogurt, ice cream, gyros, various tapas, pie, french fries and corn dogs, spinach salad, my grandma's spaghetti, a delicious omelet, avo-baco-mato burger, etc. until i die of being full instead.
Beatles or Stones?
Oh man. Too close to call.
If you had to pick one person on earth to die, who?
I would find the person suffering in the deepest pit of despair and irreparable injury and relieve their suffering in favor of eternal sleep.
Beer, wine or hard liquor?
Depends on who's buying it for me, HAH.
Do you have any phobias?
Not technically.
What are your plans for the future?
Getting there.
Do you walk around the house naked?
I can't anymore. It's so depressing. I've lost so much of my freedom.
If you were an animal what would you be?
Teacup chihuahua. I don't know. I'm kind of happy being a human animal.
Hair color you like on someone you're dating?
No bleach blonds. No bright blue or purple or pink hair. Anything else doesn't much matter, as long as you have hair and don't sport a comb over.
Would you rather be blind or deaf?
Blind, by a long shot. A blind person can still sculpt art out of clay, but a deaf person is robbed of music forever. And that would literally kill me.
Do you have any special talents?
Oh they're special, alright.
What do you do as soon as you walk in the house?
Hide.
Do you like horror or comedy?
I do, as a matter of fact.
Are you missing anyone?
Every minute of my life.
Where do you want to live when you are old?
Mansion, on twenty acres of eccentrically landscaped land, where I can live as a spinster wooing men half my age and reading in oversized armchairs while wearing an elegant housecoat that peek-a-boos black lingerie. White stitching. Also, either black or red pumps. Either this, or maybe I'll get lucky and die good and young.
Who is the person you can count on the most?
Myself. Basically everyone else has either failed me or died.
If you could date any celebrity past or present, who would it be?
I won't lie, I thnk Alexander Skarsgard would be a good Nordic time. But um. I dunno. I don't usually think about that.
What did you dream last night?
I dreamt about totally normal things. Like, waking up and lying in my bed im-ing people. And then I'd wake up for real and check my im's and there wouldn't be any and I'd get confused for a sleepy minute.
What is your favorite sport to watch?
Football.
Are you named after anyone?
Nope.
Have you ever been in love?
Yep. It's kind of a futile experiment.
Do you sing in the shower?
Where DON'T I sing?!
Have you ever been arrested?
So far, I've avoided this one.
What is your favorite Holiday?
We'll see.
Would you ever get plastic surgery?
If someone else paid for it for me and didn't try to dictate what i could and couldn't surgery away, yes.
Have you ever caught a fish?
I never have. In all my life, I feel this is one of those things I really should've done by now. Moreso than going to college, even, which is kind of perplexing.

Depends on the piercing and who it's on.

July 20th, 2:35am
Who do you feel most comfortable talking to about anything?
Lately, Chris has been an unbelievable resource for saying basically whatever i want. He lets me whine and neither of us care what i say to him. plus, he remembers the penis dance and the religion i tried to start back in high school, so there's not much i haven't done to embarrass myself.
Do you plan on moving out next year?
More like in two months. God I'm scared.
Where was your default taken?
Um. New Mexico. 1986.
If someone were to tell you they like you right now, would you care?
It depends on whom, and yes, I most definitely would care.
Do you feel comfortable getting up and giving speeches?
Yes. The better I know my subject matter and the goal of my speechmaking, the easier said task becomes. I'm really pretty good at saying things in front of people.
Do you have someone who you can be your complete self around?
I'm not sure I'm myself even by myself. Maybe. I don't know. I never know.
Is this year the best year of your life?
Well. So far, there have been some really great things that've happened to me. However, some of the most devastating moments have happened this year, too. I'm kind of up in the air about it. It's definitely the most interesting so far.
Looking back, did you ever waste too much time on a certain boy/girl?
It's so harsh to say it that way. But yeah.
Do you find guys/ girls with facial piercings attractive?
I don't think my opinion on what other people do to their bodies is relevant. I dunno. It's not a defining attractor.
Is there a difference between like and love?
Yes. It's different for everyone.
Does the person you want most right now know that you want them?
Probably.
Would you be able to tell someone you love them, even if you didn't feel it?
Not again. Well. Okay. Depends. Female friends over the phone who insist on saying they love me, euasjhdfakheaf. I hate it but I say it back. fuck you buddy. i hardly know you and you're just saying it for the sake of being feminine. But I'm done pretending to love people i don't actually love. (In all reality, it'd be easier to just not love anyone, but that never works out the way i want it to.)
Are you good at hiding your feelings?
Sometimes I am. It varies. Sometimes I'm really, scarily good at it. But when I'm not good at it, I'm horrible. Like, the worst there ever was.
How do you feel about the person that you've become?
She needs to get her shit together again. What the fuck happened? Things were going so well and NOW there's a crisis of self? Snap the fuck out of it, chick.
What color is your favorite hoodie?
Blaaaaack. Like my soooouuullll.
Are you emotional?
I wish my last answer to this question still felt true. I try not to be ruled by my heart, but it doesn't always work out that way. I feel batshit crazy and erratic and a good candidate for being committed to a psychiatric institution when my emotions lead the way for too long. Which is why I hate it. I mean it's fun for a while but I prefer being able to logic my way through life instead. I bruise too easily otherwise.
When was the last time you cleaned your room?
I'm so bad.
What did you drink last?
Lemonade with pomegranate schnapps. Yum.
What did you do today?
Let's see. Got up, internetted for a long time, distracted myself with things in my room, went out and bought cat food, came back and started preparing the pool for pooltime fun, came in and did some writing, more internetting, some musicing, took a nap, went out and did more pool prep (pools are a lot of fucking work), fought with my sister a little, entertained friends for a couple of hours, had dinner, played zelda, had a fake facebook fight with one of the visiting friends, made plans for portland times... not a bad day, really.
Name something you can't wait for?
Oh, I can wait for it. I kind of want time to stop for me for a week so my body and i can relax. This stress is starting to affect me physiologically.
Do you have a fear of falling asleep?
And if by "fear," you mean "fervent love," then yes.
Would you say that your a nice person?
Sometimes I am a nice person. I'm as cheerful as I can manage almost every day at work, but there are other times when I'm just an out-and-out douche bag.
Do you know anyone that drinks a lot?
Yes. I know too many people like that.
When was the last time you saw number 2 on your top friends?
couple hours ago.
What are you doing tomorrow?
working, pooling, packing.
If someone is doing something that upsets you, do you tell them?
Sometimes. I'm really awful about timeliness.
How was your weekend?
Could have been better, could have been worse. Definitely enjoyed my Einstein pool time.
Were you in a car today?
Yeah, and it cost me all my money.
Can you make brownies without looking at the instructions?
Gasp. Confession time: I've never made brownies from scratch. Not once.
What is your current mood?
General confusion and frustration and other things i can't name.
Do you want to get married and have children one day?
one day a long time from now.
Could you cry right now?
No. I'm too angry for that, if it makes sense.
Does anybody hate you?
fuuuuuck i hope not.
Honestly, if you could go back one month and change something would you?
I'm not even going to think about it. Too much to pine for, not enough purpose. The past is what it is, gotta focus on making the future better and learning from my mistakes.
Are you a jealous person?
I'm going to say no.
Have you kissed more than ten people this year?
Negatory. The number of people I've kissed this year (excluding obligatory family kisses) can still be counted on one hand.
Expecting something to change in the next month?
I hope so.
Who was the last person in your bed? Why?
Just me. Because it's my fucking bed, that's why.

July 19, 3:00 AM
Are you wearing a ring? if so, who gave it to you?
I am not wearing a ring. It's my day off and there are no creeps to fend off.
Did you sleep alone last night?
I did. Woke up that way, too. It's too hot not to.
When was the last time you had a late night phone conversation?
Well, it wasn't the most pleasant thing, but my cousin Lisa called me late last night after bar time to tell me that my grandma had been in the hospital FOR A FULL WEEK and had just gotten out, and no one told me or my sister. What the fuck, man.
What are you most looking forward to tomorrow?
Sleeping through most of the day. It shouldn't be as hot as today, but fuck, anything over 95 is unreasonable.
Did you have a good day yesterday?
Yesterday day wasn't so hot, but last night was fucking free tequila-full of awesome.
Do you know someone that is pregnant right now?
Oh-my-god THEY ARE EVERYWHERE. It's worse than the clap in a co-ed dorm. First of all, find a different hobby. Second of all, learn to use a condom.
What are you supposed to be doing right now?
Sleeping, probably, but it's so nice, I don't feel like wasting this precious breeze on skin that is too tired to feel it.
Do you prefer warm or cold weather?
Cold. I love bundling up.
Is your hair curly or straight right now?
Currrrrly, and 'fro-tastic. I've discovered that pool time makes for a totally new kind of beast: pool fro.
What are you wearing right now?
Bathing suit, and not for much longer. bed time almost.
What does your number 2 call you?
She calls me everything under the sun.
Have you talked to a complete a-hole today?
Nope. Today has been quite pleasant.
Is there a meaning behind your profile song?
Probably not.
When a friend walks out of your life, do you go after them?
Depends on who they are and why they're leaving.
If something was wrong, who is the first person you would tell?
Depends. Lately, Chris is my go-to guy, because neither of us care how much I whine to him. After that, I shop it around to the next most capable person, or I just hold on to it until I can decompress and handle it myself.
Hows your heart at the moment?
Dandy. Stupid fucking pms is passing at last and sanity is returning.
Will you be in a relationship in 4 months?
I don't foresee it. No offense.
What did you do yesterday?
Woke up and picked up right where I left off with the hormone-induced crisis, tried to talk myself out of it, went to work, experienced a few, much smaller picnics, got really dizzy a few times and had to lay down, had an overall shitty day, came home. Went to Bill's Place, had drinks, sang, drove to Red Hill only to find it closed, returned to Bill's for further tequila, sang, made a new friend Freddy (new fan club president), nearly fought a chick over something I don't quite recall, and came home at 1:30 or so because the dumb bartender wanted to go home early, and won the internet.
Who did you spend most of your time with last night?
Lisa
Where were you last night?
Bar.
Who was the last person to call you baby/babe?
The last person I distinctly remember saying it was Adam. I'm sure some customer said it to me since then but I don't remember so it doesn't count.
When you're at the grocery store do you use the self checkout?
Sometimes if I don't have very many things. Lately when I go, it's too late and the self-checkout lanes are closed.
What is your relationship status?
It is what it is.
Has anyone ever sang to you?
Yes. I wish it'd happen more often from the right people.
Has anyone ever given you roses?
Yes; sometimes it was wonderful, other times not so much.
If you were abandoned in the wilderness, would you survive?
That depends entirely upon what sort of wilderness we're talking about.
Who do you text the most?
Adam, twitter, family. Not always in that order.
How do you make your money?
Awesomely.
What is your favorite color(s)?
Red, green, blue, white, orange (sometimes), yellow (sometimes), black.
What color are your eyes?
Blue and grey and gold.
What is a compliment you receive often?
Three-way tie:
"I love your jewelry!" (thanks, they were my mother's)
"I love your hair!" (thanks, i love it this length)
"You sing so well!" (it's a rumor i've heard)
Why did your last relationship end?
Domestic violence, infidelity, distrust, and money. We are SO never doing that again.
Where is the furthest place you've traveled?
Louisiana. I wanna go back.
Which do you prefer, to eat or sleep?
Sleep. I keep forgetting to eat. I've had only one meal today but I've had like 3 naps.
How long does it take you to shower?
Hmmm. Sometimes just 5 minutes. Other times, I can waste an hour. Just depends on my mood.
How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
6.5 or something like that. too fucking hot to sleep in much later.
What are you listening to?
The train in the distance.
What do you have planned for tonight?
Filling this out, putting on some music, and going to sleep.
Do you like messages or comments better?
I don't dislike any form of correspondence. I don't always remember to reply, but I love receiving things.
How did your day go yesterday?
...
Do you have a reason to smile right now?
YES. I found more old notebooks from high school, a memory book I made of people's signatures and things. also a BASS GUITAR. I don't know where it came from, and it needs some repairs done and strings, but I can finally fulfill that secret dream of being a bassist. Everybody knows bassists do it best.
Have you learned anything new today?
Einstein believed in God! Furthermore, his belief in God prevented his acceptance of Quantum Mechanics! I mean, his theories revolutionized science and the way we look at the universe and made quantum theory possible in the first place, but his staunch belief in elegant mathematics and intelligent design prevented him from accepting it. He once was quoted as saying that his motivation in developing his theory of relativity was because he wanted to know, if he were god, how would he go about creating a universe. He wanted to catch god at His work. He's such a huge pop culture figurehead for the scientific movement, the anti-creationist way of thought! To me, that's like if it came out that Jesus was agnostic. Hah, you know what The Jeez and Einstein have in common? Both Jewish men who've come to symbolize, in western culture, things they never specifically represented in their lives. It's amazing and fascinating and god damn science is sexy.
Is there a person of the opposite sex who means a lot to you?
The gentlemen in my life are very important to me.
Do you currently have any bruises?
I do. I have multiple bruises just on one leg. I run into things a lot.
If you're being extremely quiet, what does it mean?
It either means I'm too upset to say anything I believe to be useful, or I'm trying to keep my emotions under control. This only applies when sober. If I'm drunk and quiet like I'm trying to focus, it means bad things are about to happen.
Do you like your hair?
Now that I know how to work it, I really do.
Are you a patient person?
Sometimes.
When is the last time you were hugged?
Lisa hugged me as I was getting out of her car last night. I love her.
Do you believe everything happens for a reason?
Eh, probably. Fate has no obligation to explain itself to me.
Do you have clothes that belong to other people?
Yes, and I'm going to sell them.
Is anyone mad at you?
Not that I'm aware of.
Have you ever slept in a car?
Several times now.
Who's in your profile picture with you?
Mom.
Today, would you rather go forward a week or back?
Good question.
Do you think you can love someone without trusting them?
Eh, yes and no. Love without trust isn't with the person, it's with the idea of them.
Last thing you dropped?
I carried in an armload of memorabilia from outside and I'm sure I dropped something on the way in. I don't know.
Is there anyone who doesn't like you?
Maybe, but if so, they're not vocal about it and I couldn't thank them more for it.
Do you think someone is thinking about you right now?
Maybe. Not stressin' it.
Will this weekend be a good one?
So far it has been. Also not stressin' it.
What's something you really want right now?
Calm.
Do you like Mexican food?
God, Survey, it's like you don't even know me.
Are you keeping a big secret right now?
I guess I could be. I mean. I haven't really thought about it.
Ever licked someone's cheek or forehead?
I'm certain I have.
Are you a fan of iced coffee?
Today I am.
Have you ever been called a bitch?
Yeah. Whatever, they don't know me.
Who was the last baby you held?
Again, Ms. Lily. She's walking now. I love that she looks nothing like me but as soon as people see that I'm holding a baby they assume it's mine. Thanks for the insult, assholes.
Is there a girl that knows everything about you?
No. Girls are complicated.
Do you like pancakes?
Yes, because I don't hate myself.
Have you ever kissed anyone whose name started with a O?
No.
Are your lips chapped?
Not at the moment.
What is the last thing you did before bed last night?
um. sent texts.
How many months until your birthday?
One month and 19 days.
How are you feeling RIGHT now?
My brain is going too fast with things like Einstein, god, the nature of life, human nature, regular nature, the boy (only a little), high school, my angsty past, fuckton of awful songs I wrote back when I thought I could write songs, the fact that I have changed a lot but not a lot in 8 years, the state of my heart, the weather, the fact that i can't tie a man's tie, color theory, llamas, my dogs, the little 5 yr old boy I met tonight who kicked ass in call of duty, my BASS GUITAR, the nature of my own creativity, my finances, the economy in general, school, portland, the roadtrip with my canadian friend that i've never even met before and how it could all end in disaster, booking hotels for the potentially bad but potentially rad trip, the people I used to know in hs, colors, the fact that I used to really like songs by hoobastank and godsmack and sevendust, the piles of evidence I have to support this, the lyrics to songs I transcribed, my super indie phase i had in my junior year of high school when I found Morph and Serafin, finding out that Simon Pegg (!!!!) and Ozzy Osbourne are fans of Serafin, Big Time Charlie Potatoes, the song Impaled by BTCP.... I love my brain right now and I wish I had someone to share the moment with.
Do you look at the keyboard when you type?
Depends. Not usually.
What were you doing right before you logged into myspace?
I haven't logged into myspace at all today.
Last thing you bought?
Fuck. I don't think I've paid for any of the food I've taken from work the last week. Oops.
Hold hands with anyone this week?
If we go back 6 days then yes. Otherwise, just myself. OH good lord that sounds pathetic. I just meant clasping my hands together. I do it when I think about things, like today in the pool when I meditated about human's desire to believe in something outside ourselves.
What's running through your mind right now?
Everything.
Do you hate it when people smoke around you?
No. Sometimes I do, but other times, I don't mind at all.
Have you done any thing embarrassing lately?
The more talking you do in a day, the more embarrassing moments/statements. Which means I need to fuck the shut up.
Are you currently frustrated with a girl/boy?
Not the word I'd use. I'm frustrated with myself, though.
Last three things you had to drink?
Some dr. pepper rip-off, a lot of water, and before that, tequila. Oh, yum.

July 15th, morning.
1. I've come to realize that my chest-size...
is appropriate for me.
2. I've come to realize that my job...
is not one that I like, but one I need to be patient about.
3. I've come to realize that when I'm driving...
is when I end up talking to myself, even if I'm listening to music.
4. I've come to realize that I need....
to be challenged by my environment in order to derive any enjoyment from it.
5. I've come to realize that I have lost...
what seems like a lot of time, but really isn't.
6. I've come to realize that I hate it when...
I've been doing a thing without realizing I've been doing it. It happens too often for my comfort.
7. I've come to realize that if I'm drunk...
I'm about a billion times more outgoing than I usually am.
8. I've come to realize that money...
is why I'm stressed most of the time. There will just never be enough of it.
9. I've come to realize that certain people...
just don't belong in my life anymore.
10. I've come to realize that I'll always ...
be learning something.
11. I've come to realize that my sibling(s)...
is completely fucking nuts. Like, completely utterly totally.
12. I've come to realize that my mom...
was fucking amazing, but scared just like me, or any of us.
13. I've come to realize that my cell phone...
is basic, but maybe that's okay.
14. I've come to realize that when I woke up this morning...
I was really sad.
15. I've come to realize that last night before I went to sleep...
I was actually content.
16. I've come to realize that right now I am thinking...
about things that I have no control over.
17. I've come to realize that my dad...
shouldn't be as embarrassing to me as he is sometimes. I guess this happens to everyone even when dads aren't around during those angsty teenaged years.
18. I've come to realize that when I get on Facebook...
I am only there to spy on other people.
19. I've come to realize that today...
is going to be better than I'm giving it credit for.
20. I've come to realize that tonight...
I'll be trying to shut my brain off before it can whisper terrifying things to me and make sleep impossible.
21. I've come to realize that tomorrow...
will come, whether I want it to or not.
22. I've come to realize that I really want to...
admit to the things that terrify me, and confess that i have been holding in a lot.
23. I've come to realize that the person who is most likely to repost this is...
no one because I don't post these for public consumption. er. well. okay. not myspace public.
24. I've come to realize that life...
keeps moving even when you wish it wouldn't.
25. I've come to realize that this weekend...
was really great, no matter how i feel today.
26. I've come to realize the best music to listen to when I am upset...
is something I can sing along to. If I can sing it well, even better. If I can sing it really really loud, it's the best.
27. I've come to realize that my friends...
are all really far away. The best ones, anyway.
28. I've come to realize that this year...
still hasn't sunk in yet.
29. I've come to realize that my ex...
will not ever be a friend of mine again.
30. I've come to realize that maybe I should...
not talk so much.
31. I've come to realize that I love...
so many more things than I ever thought I was capable of.
32. I've come to realize that I don't understand...
even the simplest things sometimes. I don't mean like simple math, I mean like... why the simple things in life are so good.
33. I've come to realize my past..
is always with me and has made me who I am. Even if it's been shitty and depresses other people, there are bright spots and moments of deep understanding that have solidified the tenants I hold dearest.
34. I've come to realize that parties...
are still sort of a mystery to me. I maybe have not been to very many quality parties. Way to be a shut-in, Alma.
35. I've come to realize that I'm totally terrified...
of fucking everything up and losing the things that I love in the process, but also that I cannot allow this to continue to prevent me from making an attempt at being successful.
36. I've come to realize that my life...
is mine. Also the only one I'll get. Second chances only happen in Hollywood.

Tuesday, do-over; july 15th 12:48 am
1. What is in the back of your car?
Fuck I forgot. Probably things that don't need to be in there, but at least I brought my bag in the day I got home this time.
2. When was the last time you threw up?
Last Saturday at a stranger's house in Utah up against a fence after several pulls of whiskey (they weren't bad until they mixed with an awkward conversation about dead parents and another conversation i barely remember in a chair/lap). I'm so glad I did, or I would have been in such pain.

Pink and white. It's electric.
4. Name one person that made you smile today?

34. Do you go in at a fast food place or just hit the drive thru?
I don't fast food often anymore, but when I do, it's because I'm on the road. So, drive thru. I don't typically stop at a burger king for the ambiance.

42. What do you want to be when you grow up?
Everything.
43. Biggest annoyance in your life right now?
Currently, I'm kind of pissing myself off. I'm doing really stupid things. I'm being fearful when I should be brave and obstinate when I should be flexible and awake when I should be asleep and poor when I should be rich and lazy when I should be working and sad when I have no reason to be. Oh, Alma, honey, where did you go?

Sleep, wake, procrastinate, consume, work, smile, laugh, sing, procrastinate some more, argue, ignore, scramble, drive, internet, music, art, sleep again.
55. Do you hate anyone right now?
Hate really is a strong word. I use it often enough, but the reality is that I don't really hate all the people I say I hate. It would be useless to hate.
56. Do you use the word hello daily?
Multiple times a day. Over and over and over. I have invented new ways of greeting people just to avoid breaking my "hello" button.
59. Have you ever been to Six Flags?
Yes, during my senior trip. I think I did three roller coasters. I was honestly terrified.
60. How did you get one of your scars?
This time we're reliving another scar. I have a scar where my leg meets my foot from a time when I was about 9 when, in all my wisdom, I decided it would be a good idea to try and see if i could ride my bike without holding the handle bars WHILE my feet were off the pedals. Honestly it should have occurred to me sooner what would happen, but instead, I ended up with my bike on top of me (ON TOP OF ME), being dragged down the street by the sheer momentum of my fall. The cut was so deep that it took most of the walk home for it to start bleeding. Consequently, it's also in the shape of the state of California, when you look at it in the right light. Guess there's no way around being a California girl.

July 14th, after work.
What does your newest text say?
Twitter confirmed for me that I turned off text updates for the night. Dave Baker Comics Maker is watching movies again and I just remembered I can turn Twitter off.

Night before last. I was looking at pictures of Mom.

No. Last night was awkward and horrible.

Fair.
Who was the last person you called?
Adam. But really I've been on the phone a lot today.
Do you have any plans for tomorrow?
Packing, reading, etc.
When was the last time you fell?
I stumbled. I was unforgivable. I was inconsolable. There was no consoling. I picked myself up and stared upward and said, "I know better than to ask you why, you cunt, but I'm going to do it anyway." Only I didn't ask. I didn't feel the need to ask. I looked at myself in the mirror and smoothed down my hair and I blew myself a little kiss. I thought of the ones who had held me up in the past and the way their hands felt against my back. I drew from their strength and I gave it a name and I picked up my bag and I went on.
What were you doing at 10:00 am?
feeling awkward.
How many drugs have you done in the last 7 days?
None, that i'm aware of.

The wind, buster licking the floor like it's covered in peanut butter. S'kinda weird.

No! The sun is up, why do you need lights?
Can you see any shoes from where you are sitting?
Two shoes! No wait, three. I'm awesome.
How many times have you gotten into a argument with the last person you talked to?
The last person I talked to was a complete stranger asking for directions into Marysville. We didn't have TIME to argue.

Do you think a lot of people think bad things about you?
BadASS things about me, maybe.
Are you waiting for something?
No. No more waiting. Time to make things happen. I had forgotten, and I feel like a fool.
Have you ever been called heartless?
Who even knows.
Is there something you want?
There are lots of things that I want. I'm learning, I'm learning.
Do you hold grudges?
Like a master. Honestly I can hold grudges like no other. I am not someone to piss off. I try to avoid it, though, by being insanely hard to piss off.
Do you have a friend you can tell stuff to and you're sure they won't tell?
Yes. And thank god.
Has anyone ever told you they love you?
Yes.
When was the last time you were disappointed?
Today.
Are you anything like you were at this point last year?
No. Well, yes, but no.

Sleeping, duh.
What were you doing 20 minutes ago?
Feeding some animals and contemplating having a meal of some sort before I close out my day.
What was the last thing you bought?
A soda somewhere in Lovelock.
Do you laugh a lot?
Yessir.
Are you ticklish?
Yes. I am really really uncomfortable with strangers knowing and/or trying to touch me to find out.
Can you sleep without blankets covering you?
Sometimes I can. When I'm home and it's 80 degrees in my bedroom at night, I can. Otherwise, I honestly can't sit on a couch without a blanket sometimes.
What's the first thing you did when you woke up this morning?
answered the phone.
Do you always answer your phone?
No. It's not as much of a compulsion as I like to think it is. I answer the phone for numbers I don't recognize, but I ignore calls from my sister and future school. What the fuck is wrong with me.
Do you eat whip cream out of a can?
I don't usually eat whipped cream period. But when I do, I like to make it myself.
Do you have a friend of the opposite sex you can talk to?
Yes, I do. And, actually, I have a few.
Do you have any cats?
She's currently grooming herself next to me. She greeted me on my way in and I held her and she reminded me why I love her more than my dogs.
Have you ever slept in the same bed as your friends?
Sleepovers as a kid, heck yes. Beyond that, bed sharing is very rare and I'm picky about whom I share a bed with. Moreover, when the friend is a dude, it's crossing a line into other territory.
What is your relationship status?
It isn't.
Are you feeling guilty about anything right now?
No. But I did this morning. I felt guilty and selfish and dishonorable and I couldn't make myself stop.
Have you ever slapped someone in the face?
I have. I almost did tonight. Fucking cocksucking Perry mother fucking "drunken antics man" Smith almost DIED by my HAND.
Have you ever let somebody be your everything?
It's happened.
Has anyone hugged you in the past 5 days?
Yes, and I want more.
What's something you're excited about right now?
I'm not sure excited is the right word. I'm anticipating something. I'm terrified of it. I'm doing it anyway. It might be stupid, it might be unwise, but I'm going to try and love it anyway.
What type of food does your dog eat?
Hill's Science Diet CD. He's an old man of a dog with special food needs. He eats better than I do.
Is there someone you know you should hate but can't?
Yes. I can't remember who it is, though. Probably the reason behind my being unable to hate them.

Constantly. Especially now.

Water flavored like lemon and lime. sparkling. tasty.
What are you listening to?
...and there was a booming above you that night: black airplanes flew over the sea. and they were lowing and shifting like beached whales, shelled snails. You strained and you squinted to see the retreat of their hairless and blind cavalry. You froze in your sand shoal, prayed for your poor soul; Sky was a breadroll soaking in a milk bowl. And when the bread broke, fell in bricks of wet smoke. My sleeping heart woke, and my waking heart spoke.
What time did you get to sleep last night?
We did this already.

Not this moment. Tomorrow, though.

Relationship or hook-up?
Relationships are more worth the effort you put into them.
What jewelry do you wear 24/7?
Necklaces. I put them on and forget I'm wearing them. At the moment, I'm wearing pearls.
Do you have a best friend?
Sort of. I sort of have four half-way best friends. But if you put them all together, they make one really fucking awesome best friend.
Can money buy happiness?
No. I know because I have never had money, but I have had happiness.
Who was the last person you smacked?

When Mom died. It didn't break as much as explode.
Do you think you are a good person?
I think I am usually.
What did you do today?
I went and had a full day at work. Betty is not a terrible co-worker. She's a little unused to the closing shift, but she's much smarter than I originally gave her credit for.

I hope not.
Are you afraid of falling in love?
A little. The last time I fell out was painful, but all the same, I'm not sure I'll be given a choice.
Has anyone ever told you they love you?
No. I've lived in a cave with my fingers in my ears.
What are you wearing right now?
Work clothes. Why this is, I am clueless.
What pisses you off the most?
Ignorance.
Are you proud of yourself?
I don't know. Sometimes I am, but sometimes I am not. I take things on a case-by-case basis.
What's one thing you would change about yourself?
I wouldn't, I think. I'd give myself more understanding, perhaps, to accept what I have and move forward with it.
Have you ever had a serious conversation with your dad?
A few times. There are far, far more serious conversations to be had here.
Do you still have items that belong to your ex?
