I’ve got a tight grip on reality, but I can’t let go of what’s in front of me.

Living a post-grad life “in this economy” is rough, but I’m not gunna lie, when friends tell me they can’t hang out because they have to “write a paper” or “study,” I do not miss school at all. Besides there is too much on the Internet to expect anyone to study reasonably these days

FOOD (and alcohol) COMA
sidestep:
That is all.
And a shopping-induced coma. North Georgia Premium Outlet malls tonight for annual Black Friday insanity. Ho-ly hell. I don’t know why I do it to myself. There’s nothing I hate more than angry suburban moms on a mission. But I just can’t resist 40-50 percent off everything — Tommy Hilfiger, Nine West, GAP — oh everything was just delicious...
I feel good things coming … I can feel them coming

All the small things
Every year on Thanksgiving, like most cheeseball American families, we go around the table and say one thing we are thankful for. I always go blank, never knowing what to say, always spouting off something generic like “family” or “friends,” which, I am thankful for but are both kind of unoriginal givens. Over the past year I’ve made little mental memos of things I am...

I may or may not be emotionally involved in the plot of Nickelodeon’s “iCarly” due to excessive babysitting of 10ish year olds. Sam, Freddy and Carly … Low point?
Gigi: I would rather be like that, then be like you. Alex: Excuse me? What’s that supposed to mean? Gigi: I may dissect each little thing and put myself out there so much but at least that means that I still care. Oh! You’ve think you won because women are expendable to you. You may not get hurt or make an ass of yourself that way but you don’t fall in love that way either. You...
I am unwritten, can’t read my mind, I’m undefined I’m just beginning, the pen’s in my hand, ending unplanned Staring at the blank page before you Open up the dirty window Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find Reaching for something in the distance So close you can almost taste it Release your inhibitions Feel the rain on your skin No one else can feel it...
I think the only way to get through this life is laughing hard and constantly,...

The concept of Abilify blows my mind — adding another medication to your antidepressant if your antidepressant isn’t working — if your antidepressant isn’t working you need to switch medications, not add another medication, with more side effects, insurance issues, et cetera, it’s like curing a hangover by drinking more.
