When i'm nervous
my teeth chatter like a wheelbarrow collecting rain.
I am rusty when i talk,
it's the storm in me.
Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children’s letters — sometimes very hastily — but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it.

Beach plans.
- Me: I'm nervous to go to the beach, cause, I don't have, like, a game plan
- Zach: ....
- Me: and I'm gonna be there for 3 months
- Zach: Then really your only plan should be sunscreen
- -a few minutes of complete silence later-
- Zach: like a tub. You should just buy a tub of sun screen.
- So. Beach trip = planned
I just read this very interesting article:
Why Loki Won in the Avengers.
Warning: spoilers. Make sure you’ve seen the movie first before you read this.Mind: Blown. It always bugged me that Loki was so careless about drawing the Hulk out, knowing full well he could be beaten by the creature. This is just…ahhh. AHHH.

So my bff (skyroller.tumblr.com) and I smoked the reefer and decided to see how using a Ouija Board would go. We spent some time online looking up what “accessories” would help (getting lost in 4chan along the way) and gathering the necessary supplies:
1 Quartz Crystal, 3 skulls (of various design), 1 pair of skeleton hand Halloween gloves, 1 bottle of Holy Water purchased at the local flea market, 1 jar labeled “essence of fart”, 1 slap-bracelet cobra, 1 unlit candle, 1 penny, 1 Ganesha statue, 1 25-cent machine voodoo doll, 1 Burger King furbie toy, 1 Living Dead doll, 3 bottles of Gatorade, 2 white face-masks, 1 pair of Native American-style maracas.
Long story short, I made wrote our last Will & Testament, and built a Dia de los Muetos-esque shrine beside her bed.
i love my friends
