The Great Pumpkin always picks the most sincere pumpkin patch to rise out of. He’s just gotta pick this pumpkin patch. He’s just gotta! Look around. You can see that there’ not a sign of hypocrisy anywhere. Nothing but sincerity reaching out as far as the eye can see.

basement finds.
i brought like all of my laundry to my dads (comforter, pillows included). my dad’s laundry space is in the basement, and two years ago (the end of sophomore year) i was moving out of an apartment back home to my mom’s. my father had just moved into this house and i hired a van to bring i’d say a quarter of my stuff to store in my dad’s basement. [regardless of this i still...

WHY CAN’T A FILM CREW JUST COME AND FILM ME SO I CAN HAVE MY OWN TV SHOW AND THAT WAY COMPANIES WOULD HIRE ME WITHOUT A TRICKY PHONE INTERVIEW SO THEY COULD BE ON MY TV SHOW AND THEN I WOULD HAVE A LINE OF MY OWN AND PRETEND TO GO TO FASHION SCHOOL AND BE ABLE TO GO TO CABO FOR A WEEKEND ON A PRIVATE PLANE AND EVERYTHING WOULD R00L.

am trying to find a Russian poem. found in english this “Girl Beatnik” by Yevgeny Yevtushenko, i really love his stuff, but cannot find it in Russian. it’s frustrating.

i don’t know if you’ve all realized this already, but i tend to lean toward a mroe classic look. yes i wear skinny jeans, but most trendy looks really don’t work on me, and i’m ok with that. i prefer stripes, blacks, denim and classic materials (tweed! cashmere!) anyway. i like to look modern, but i like to think that with some minor tweaking my outfit could fit into many...

halloween.
ok, so MyGuy and i aren’t big drinkers (i did the whole dress up and get smashed thing two years ago, he was in Europe, i want to say Ireland at the time didn’t celebrate) , i hate crowd ( we did the parade last year, i kept saying “i hate crowds”) and i don’t eat candy. also: we’re cheap. but i still want to do something kick ass on halloween, something...

“For Cindy McCain, one needs only a bottle of Budweiser, a country-music bouffant wig, and string of fake pearls. A bottle of pills is optional and functional but maybe cruel. Also, demon fire for eyes, but that is hard to find.” —Joshua David Stein, Page Six Magazine

ain't just a building in Agra.
MyGuy and i spent sunday doing work together, except by together i mean i did work and he played around on his laptop. until what seemed like precisely the moment i was done working and then urgency set in and he had to stay where we were and write a paper. I found myself alone, with no work, and my iPod. i shuffled through for a while until i hit Taj Mahal’s “Done Changed my Way of...

professorial quotations.
Cunnilingus can be fun, but it is better to give it more taste. Here, a woman is equaled to food, put on a table and eaten. They don’t necessarily taste good though.

rolling in my grey volvo.
this summer at work we were chatting about cars. Kelly said she wanted a red car, a sport little sexy one. Roxy wanted something fast and fancy. I wanted the 1980 cream Volvo which rode by. I have this unnatural connection to Volvos, particularly station wagons born before 1985. i enjoy muted colors, green, grey and cream.. though i will also fawn over a beat up red or blue one.
perhaps this is...
i can't sleep
and while stumbling through the blog-iverse, i had a thought. you know how those all those haters who say things like “how can you have a life if you’re blogging all the time?” i was thinking sort of the opposite of that. with relationships. i see a lot of seemingly happy couples on blogs, and this may be 100% because this is the angle they show of of their relationship (its...
