The view from the bottom

When you’re right about something …no one listens. And no one apologizes.

The hardest part about the real world isn’t the workload. It’s navigating personalities.

Toxic thoughts

The more time I have to think, the more I think I hate you.

Change in scenery

I’ve been MIA because I moved…again.

This time to a little place in Georgia where I started a new job. I’ve almost reached the two month mark. Hooray! What I hate most is that everyday I’m met with some sort of criticism.

- “Oh, you’re wearing a dress today” (appearance)

- “You smile too much” (demeanor)

- “You sound too somber” (tone)

- “Was there an earthquake?” (shaky video)

I just want to walk away after these two years still being me.

I’m so funny

Good things happen to people who wait

A couple of years ago, I became friends with someone so very important to me. He hasn’t spoken to me for two and a half years. But on my birthday, he was the very first person to wish me well. I’m so happy he remembers me.

Pain versus Pressure

I got a wisdom tooth pulled today. It took two hours and a whole lot of medicine to numb my mouth. I was crying and shaking half of the time, but mostly regretting the fact that I didn’t wear waterproof mascara. 

My doctor numbed me up and started doing stuff inside my mouth. He told me I should feel pressure, but after a few minutes I’d shake so badly he would add more novacaine. After that happened 3 times, he asked me if I knew the difference between pressure and pain. So I asked him for the definition. Pain goes straight to the head. Well in that case, I was feeling pain that went straight to the head and down my jaw into my chest.

New Museum

Today I was naked at the museum. Showered in the museum. And floated in a sea-salt filled tub at the museum. But in order to do that, I waited in line for an hour in 15-degree weather without breakfast and only two cups of espresso in my tummy. All in all, a successful Sunday in the city.

a master and a job offer….life is pretty good right now.

In the process of changing all my icons.
