Hey you—
You think I’m going to let you graze my emotions like that?
This day is too sunny and I look too good to be affected by anyone’s foolishness.
This is not political it’s just that I demand attention when I walk into the room
Nelly Furtado, I Will Make You Cry
Girlfriend rule #13.209: If you find yourself to be the smartest of the bunch, you may want to give second thoughts to that “No New Friends” notion.
That feeling when you see the person who you’ve dreaded running into forever—but you nailed the conversation exactly the way you practiced it in your head/in the shower/in class/as you studied/while you did chores/all day every day since the last time you saw them.
Well, maybe not 100%. But you did good. And for that, you should celebrate.
My faves are back in bloom—from me to you.
Enjoy!
You already know what time it is.
Yeah, yeah, yeah… I shouldn’t have waited until summer to get in the gym but I wasn’t ready.
All the skinny girls and the hot chicks in the magazines and videos didn’t give me the low self esteem needed to get in the gym.
I kid, I kid.. now I’m ready—not because Kim Kardashian is a normal girl, with swollen feet like mine after I eat fried pickles—but because I want to feel good without resorting to drinking ectoplasm for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Trust me—those juicing people ain’t happy, baby. They ain’t happy.
So are you ready?
It’s not you. Really, it’s me.
I’ve decided not to force what’s never been there. Some things should simply flow. Without force, without jealousy or envy.
And it never did flow. In life, we try to make things work. But it comes to a point where the you must rid your life of everything that is refuse and choose the one thing that you’re not ready to lose.
And that’s me.
siegejoi: I can make fun of people for days.
Raggedy coworker: It’s true—you’re very good at it too. But why not challenge yourself and be nice for once in your life?
Why does a hint of sun and warmth make us feel like this?
At this very moment it’s just me, some lit cinnamon-and-clove scented candles, a few shots of bourbon, and my own ever-so-lovely thoughts.
When the world is an endless Harlem Shake and you feel like you need to get away, find a safe space and
relax.
If everyone in the world/could give me what I wanted/I wouldn’t want for more than I have
Sade, I Couldn’t Love You More
There are times when fashion is so bad that I can’t watch, either.
Sometimes that extra brush of blush on your cheekbone, that extra twirl with the curlers, or even that pump of perfume might brighten, not only the day for others, but it may brighten your day as well.
You can’t pretend there’s nothing there/girl, I look in your eyes, see you care/so why not stop trying to run and hide/you won’t find out if you never try
Can’t Hide Love, Earth, Wind and Fire
We don’t let go by posting not-so-subliminal messages. We don’t let go by always talking about the matter (no longer) at hand.
If we really let go, we let things become a distant memory, silently allowing it to travel the distance.
