Hi Everyone, Yay! This week I will have posted three times instead of just two! I am striving to get back to posting five times a week, but it is harder now that I have burned through my one or two reserve pieces that helped me out when I had an off day and didn’t…

This Week Ten Years Ago
The Week of 12/4/2005 Witty one liner: As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in public schools. Quote of the week: “Empathy is your pain in my heart.” – Unknown Offbeat oddity (courtesy of the planner): An underground mushroom in Oregon is 3.5 miles across and covers an area larger than 1,600…
Apathetic Couple
She had on her tight shiny pleather pants and he sat next to her in his badass black leather jacket. Her boots were ankle cut and her knees looked round in the almost painted on pants. His hands are in his lap holding his phone and he has a grey hoodie on underneath, his jacket’s…
Watching Man Films Without Sound
I do not have an awesome subway post, but enjoy my experience riding a bus from NYC to Syracuse, NY. This is a DM twitter conversation I had with a good friend of mine: Me: Dude across the aisle from me is watching some OH WOE IS ME FOR I AM A WHITE BOY…
Swallowing Down Her Pain
She looks like she is swallowing down her pain one sour and bitter mouthful at a time, her eyes downcast, holding her red (p)leather purse with black polka dots tightly. Her left hand is wrapped around the handle and her right is curled under the bottom, securing it in her lap. Her coat is a…
Dear Fellow Feminists and Everyone Else

This Week Ten Years Ago
Week of 11/13/2005 Witty one liner: Well if I called the wrong number, why’d you answer? Quote of the week: You don’t love someone because they’re beautiful, they’re beautiful because you love them. Offbeat oddity (courtesy of the planner): A dime has 118 ridged around the edge. I have no idea why I thought…
Pale Eyes
Pale eyes, dark hair, but the curls that are peeking out from under his backwards baseball cap are bleached blond. He is wearing Skeleton fingerless gloves and his nails are painted black. He has a lip piercing and one in his right eyebrow. He is smirking at his phone, but he is really laughing at…
Hockey Player and the French Person
His gear bag is bigger than him and quite possibly might weigh more than him. He could fit inside the gear bag easily. He holds a hockey stick in his left hand, the blade up in the air. Navy blue, windbreaker exercise pants with three red stripes on the outside of each leg. Light brown…
Adulthood
Adulthood: You suck. Regards, Mid-twenties
A Few More Minutes
He has white dust on his black cargo pants. His backpack between his spread legs and a navy blue hoodie with white piping. The hood is up as he attempts to get a few more minutes of sleep, his right hand loosely curled around his right knee, his left arm crossed over his body and…
