I’m just gonna hide out under a rock listening to the Annie soundtrack over and over until people stop making idiotic statements about people “asking” to be raped…
Feel sharp pain in foot during shower.
Ignore it.
20 mins later. Drying hair. Realize nose ring has fallen out and is missing.
MIRACULOUSLY find nose ring at the bottom of the tub.
That explains the sharp pain in my foot.

In all three books Katniss just pees once.
Still better than seven years and Harry only taking one bath.
And someone has to actually tell Harry to have that bath
Seriously, I would be so mad if people talked like this about my book. I’m not going to explain every bowel movement, guys. Come on.
I’m tumbling while in a panel about tumblr. You’d love this ivy. You should be running the thing.
schmendrick-the-magician asked: TAG. YOU'RE IT. The rules are you state 10 random facts about yourself. Then go to your ten favorite blogs and tell them they're it. (AYYY YI YI YIIII youre it)

so today i went to get bloodwork done
and the phlebotomist put a needle into my hand (because my arms just don’t even have any veins in them apparently)
and then she said….
“UH OH.”
and I said…. “WHAT?!?! WHAT, ‘UH OH’???!”

bitter valentines day rant.
okay i really want to know like…
what is it about me that makes guys not buy me flowers? I mean, last year we agreed no presents so that’s fine. But this year and every other year of my life.
Asking for flowers defeats the purpose. You’re supposed to know to get me flowers.

And because I haven't already complained on enough...

Young women are taught to think of this passage - which describes sexual assault - as erotic. Young men are taught to force their will on young women, regardless of any (non)verbal cues, because sex is conquest and women...

but you think “oh what the hell, i’ll be polite” so you answer them nicely and as quickly as possible.

Dear mom:
Please stop watching Fox News. The evil black man is not out to get us all and not everyone on welfare pops out a baby every 18 months just so they can stay unemployed.
