Me: What are you hungry for? Abbey: I don’t know. I could eat a big greasy cheeseburger from McDonalds and be happy. Me: So, you want to find, like, a diner or something? Abbey: No, I mean I could eat a big pile of cow shit at this point. Me: Sooo, you want to find a barn?

In two days I’ll be in Pittsburgh meeting with a new doctor about a total hip replacement. Reading everything I can get my hands on over the past few weeks about the procedure and alternative procedures has left me feeling more scared shitless than informed.
What scares me most are the numbers.
Three to five days in the hospital. Four to six weeks before I can walk without the assistance...

E-mails
Me: Hi! Just have a quick question for you. We wanted to know if it would be permissable to use your logo on our web site’s new “partners page.” Please advise. Thanks!
Her: Hi, Katie. Let me ask and I’ll get back to you.
The next day:
Her: Hi, Katie. Can you e-mail [redacted] and ask him about using our logo. He is a better person to contact.
Me: Forwards e-mail to...

we share a moon and a sun, but there are spaces between you and i. and when the planets kneel down to pray to the bone-white lamplights that show them all the way, i watch them whisper constellations to your muddy eyes. and when we hit the light we never stay for long, we crack into a thousand pieces and cut across the room. sometimes i thought i had diamonds dug into my fingers, i...
Feist - Islands in the Stream
I love this remake...
And then this happened...

The scene: Waiting for friend at the bar of a local restaurant, playing with my iPhone (of course). Creepy old guy sits next to me (old in the sense that he could’ve graduated high school with my dad). He speaks:
“A pretty young thing like you shouldn’t be sitting all alone.” I offer a wan smile to offer appreciation but not encouragement and respond, “Waiting for a friend.” I...
Text Messages
Mom: Did you get the bouquet I sent you last week?
Me: Whaaa? What are you talking about?
Mom: The bouquet I sent you. I texted you a bouquet of penises.
Me: OMG YES. I tried to forget that.
Mom: Well did you erase it? Because I want it back.
Me: I think erased it, mom. I’ll check.
Mom: Ok, well if you have it send it to me.

Vices
When I first saw that “vices” was a tubmlr52 theme, I kind of laughed to myself and thought, “Yeah, I’m skipping this one.”
I mean, seriously? Where would I even start?
But then I found myself thinking about it all week and making a mental list. What are my vices? Well, all the usual suspects. There’s alcohol, pills, sex, shopping, drugs, food, smoking, etc.,...
Weekend in review...
So, this weekend I spent a lot of time in David’s Bridal. I bought my bridesmaid dress for my brother and his girlfriend’s wedding in May and tried on a bunch more for my best girlfriend’s wedding in July. I haven’t even started thinking about the dress for the wedding I’m in next October.
Seriously. No more, people. I’m retiring as a bridesmaid.
Anyway....

So, I shared a bottle of wine with one of my girlfriends last night, got VERY drunk, got the spins, threw up multiple times in the early hours of the morning, had a pounding headache, was extremely confused because it was just a half a bottle of wine and I can totally drink a half bottle of wine, I mean, it was a big bottle of wine, and not the best quality wine, but still, this is weird, and THEN...
I can't wait for summer to come back. I miss it.
Today has totally sucked so far.
Someone tell me something good… please?
I couldn’t possibly be any better at ignoring issues that desperately need addressed while simultaneously obsessing over things I have absolutely no control over. Seriously, there should be some type of award for this because IT WOULD BE MOTHERFUCKING MINE.

5:15 Wake up Call!
abbeyfish:
And what do I do? I roll over in bed, slap my iPhone a couple of times to shut it up (you know, mindlessly, sleepily, and quite deliriously trying to find the snooze button), and go back to bed for about half an hour.
Race through the Tim Horton’s drive through (they’ve effortlessly provided me this morning with the most disgusting cup of coffee I’ve ever spent $1.61 on, and I feel...

Your answer to the question, “Do you have a girlfriend?” was, “Yeah, but it’s not really that serious.” But what I heard was, “Yes, I have a girlfriend. But I don’t really love or respect her. I like to keep her around because she’s useful to me in some ways. However, I have no idea what it means to be in a healthy, committed relationship....
I wasn’t going to drink a beer tonight. I was just going to drink chai. I actually DID drink some chai. But then I took down all my Christmas decorations and the tree and put everything away and cleaned my whole apartment and I feel like I really accomplished a lot and that totally means I deserve a present and a beer is a good present, AMIRITE?
Sometimes I practice justifying things just...
A boy from highschool...
prettygirlsongs:
on my facebook just told me:
He is in love with me.
He will never forgive himself for not spending more of his life with me.
I squandered away my virginity, when that moment should have been ours to share.
(I never even kissed that boy. Said creepster got the boot.)
My Facebook page brings all the creeps to the yard, and they’re like I’VE LOVED YOU SINCE HIGH...
So, last night I had my first dream ever about a...
I dreamed that @abigvictory and I were driving around Erie, talking about drag racing. I was in the passenger seat, she was navigating and I have no idea where we were going.
And I don’t even know anything about drag racing.
