shut. the fuck. up. you fucker.

Ugh. So much idiotic drama going on. xb has once again reared his stupid-ass head. He friended by best and oldest friend in Chicago on Facebook recently, and I had a panic attack after seeing his face below a post of hers that he’d commented on (it doesn’t help that his profile picture is from [...]

oy! librarian in crisis!

I am a children’s librarian in the midst of SUMMER READING! Which means, oh, my god, I am losing my mind. I am swarmed by children most of the day, signing them up for the program, explaining how the program works, etc and so forth.
I do have several tales to tell, though: Sideburns and his [...]

mother

Two years ago this June my mother died. I was in the midst of a terrible break-up with a man I was living with and whom I loved very much. When my brother called at 6:30 a.m. the morning she died, I was devastated. I remember that it felt like I cried unendingly for the [...]

sexual healing

I’ve been on many dates recently. Yesterday I had two- a coffee date with a large, bearded avanat garde theater artist, and a stout and sushi and Arrested Development “date” with my friend Sideburns.
The first date was okay. The fellow was interesting, but I didn’t feel much of a spark, and I had to [...]

boundaries

I’ve always struggled with boundary issues. In college I had a roommate that I had unhealthy boundaries with. I would become intensely upset if she missed meetings that we both attended, or if I sensed that she was becoming closer to someone other than me.
When Zer0 and I lived together in 2001, I had the [...]

movie fail

I tried to go see a movie with my friend T – bone, but every movie we tried to see was sold out (we tried three different movies at two different theaters). This did not seem to bode well for socializing, so I decided to just go home and watch the movie I had from [...]

1. I have twice dated married men. (bonus: Both times it was revealed to me in murky terminology. I regret [...]

oh so sensitive

I get that same ohmigod feeling when I look at the websites of former employers that I do when I run across pictures of exboyfriends. Is that weird?

Besides being broke-ass po’ (I make enough money, it’s just that it took so long for it to start actually getting paid to me, I am [...]

sexy librarians, swedish nationality optional

Do yourself a favor and look up the swedish librarian fashion spread from vice magazine. I’d link it for you, but I am too lazy to do it right now. Hot, hot, hot.
My friend that I made out with twice, [Sideburns], has been alluding to my librarian sexosity alot lately. We went on a couple [...]

shit

Mine? It’s together.
Not real shit, mind you. Shit. You know, shit. All that stuff that makes up life. Paying bills, going out, doing laundry, cooking, playing with the cat, showering, taking the garbage out, homework, music– I’ve got it together.
I want xb to know this. I want him to know that I can and will [...]
