Princess Leia is rediscovering her true identity that JoAnn tried to hide with earmuffs, a bun, and a shopping bag. 
This is a much better way to spend a morning than laundry.

Lord help me

If one more person asks me one more time if I’ve tried a night guard to solve my TMJD I will chop off his head

actually I’ll probably just leave and go cry and eat pancakes at home alone

But seriously people, please stop thinking you have this brilliant solution to my problem when in fact your solution has absolutely no effect on my problem (facial muscles =/= teeth, in case this is news). I’m really getting frustrated, and I’d like if you would respect/believe that I know my situation better than you do.

This photo doesn’t do justice to the scene that greeted me arriving back home from GRap this weekend. Taylor Swift blasting, cake being made, Susan shouting happy birthday and precarious balloons balanced on kitchen appliances. Maybe March isn’t such a bad month after all.

So if I’m going out its nice to give myself 45min to breathe and plan and know where I’m going and psych myself up for human interaction

But sometimes plans change last minute and I want to cry because all that work disappears no matter how small a change and I’m left with the mountain of anxiety on my chest

And I know its dumb but I wish it wasn’t so hard to explain to people who just wanted to hang out and have a good time

I’m just not all together like they are

The feels.

Things I love:
Dancing with unjudging people
Dancing to P!nk
Holding onto a guy’s arm so I don’t trip walking in heels on slippery sidewalks
Staying in the home of 4 friends I love mountainfuls
Coffee
Weddings
The song River dances to used as a recessional
Dresses

Things I don’t love:
Feelings of helplessness.

“How much do you love your fish?”

I would give up popcorn for Seze. He’s my favorite of my favorite things.

(Thankfully I see no situation in which my forgoing popcorn would benefit him. I should probably get rid of the rubber duck my little cousin wedged into his underwater castle, though.)

Top 5 (play counts)

Ocean Avenue - 268

The Suffering - 258

Absolutely (Story of a Girl) - 225

Grey Street - 153

Sing - 152

I think Ocean Avenue is on every single one of my playlists that wasn’t created for sleeping purposes.  Now that I think of it, though, The Suffering actually is on one of my sleep playlists.  Not sure if that’s ever worked out for me but what the hell. 

IT IS PERFECT I’VE DONE IT.
It opens flat. The cover pages are smooth and lay straight.  The pages match the blues and browns awesomely. I am so happy yay.

Those were the days, my friends.

I made another book another book another bookkk for Mark!
Actually I made 2 books and a painting but I’m sleepy so here is just one.

Actually I made 2 books and a painting but I’m sleepy so here is just one.

I am so full of fragments and colors and skies and brushstrokes and I will never be able to get it all out no matter how many nights I spend at this table.

But being able to choose which emotions to draw out of me each night is the most beautiful healing thing I never thought possible it feels like I’m sobbing in relief.

I can’t describe this well enough; back to painting it out.

Sitting at work and all you have to do is check a couple different places to find numbers to add together properly

But someone is dead and you couldn’t do anything about it and suddenly you can’t fathom that his thoughts aren’t being thought anymore

And these numbers can count themselves I don’t want to be tied here I need to run
