To the nice girls who are overlooked, who become friends and nothing more, who spend hours fixating upon their looks and their personalities and their actions because it must be they that are doing something wrong. This is for the girls who don’t give it up on the first date, who don’t want to play mind...

I’ve never been on a schedule this bad before. Going to bed between 6 and 8 in the morning is whack. I saw less than an hour of sunlight today. But the good news is that this is probably one of the last cycles. My academic life officially starts back up again on Tuesday. So what shall I do my last off day…

A New Year (1/1/09)
bryonmcdonald:
I wish you’d…
nuzzle up to my face and tell me I smell good
sit here and listen to For Emma and Grace with me by the fire
scream obscenities as we get in my freezing car
