My girlfriend and I would like to get married someday. However, in states such as our own, gay marriage is still illegal. The denial of this basic human right is just an extension of the ignorance that the lgbtq community faces on a daily basis. While marriage equality isn’t the end all be all for gay rights, it’s a big step. 1 week ago

90. new york city (how did it take me this long to post this!)

this little passage sums up my love for new york

“Quite simply, I was in love with New York. I do not mean “love” in any colloquial way, I mean that I was in love with the city, the way you love the first person who ever touches you and you never love anyone quite that way again. I remember walking across Sixty-second Street one twilight that first spring, or the second spring, they were all alike for a while. I was late to meet someone but I stopped at Lexington Avenue and bought a peach and stood on the corner eating it and knew that I had come out out of the West and reached the mirage. I could taste the peach and feel the soft air blowing from a subway grating on my legs and I could smell lilac and garbage and expensive perfume and I knew that it would cost something sooner or later – because I did not belong there, did not come from there – but when you are twenty-two or twenty-three, you figure that later you will have a high emotional balance, and be able to pay whatever it costs. I still believed in possibilities then, still had the sense, so peculiar to New York, that something extraordinary would happen any minute, any day, any month.”

It is 10:58 pm, Monday, March 11th, 2013 and my girlfriend loves me. 3 months ago

Saw Tegan and Sara and The Killers (ew)
Got there late with Korn after a huge fight with my father. Got a kind of shitty spot. I’m incredibly upset about the entire thing. My lil babies were so good though! I’ll happily shell out money to see them, regardless of how long they play.

Finally on vacation. I asked for a “proper” journal for Christmas so I can actually write down things more often. 5 months ago

Saw Tegan and Sara! And The Killers as well, but really was there for Tegan and Sara. It was sweet and short, but they are so adorable. I will gladly shell it out to see them, regardless of how long their set is. 5 months ago

Pulled off the highway in Missouri and low our hearts were heavy laid
Made for the chapel with some spray paint for all the things we’d held in secret
Lord lift up these lifeless bones
Light cascading through the windows
all the rainbow’s heavy tones

He has fixed his sign in the sky
He has raised me from the pit and set me high

Left that place in ruin, drunk on the Spirit and high on fumes
Checked into a Red Roof in stayed up for several hours and then slept like infants
In the burning fuselage of my days
Let my mouth be ever fresh with praise

He has fixed his sign in the sky
He has raised me from the pit and set me high

Each morning new
Each day shot through
With all the sharps small shards of shrapnel
that seem to burst of me and you

Head down towards kansas We will get there when we get there don’t you worry
Feel bad about the things we do along the way
But not really that bad
We inhaled the frozen air
Lord send me a mechanic if I’m not beyond repair

He has fixed his sign in the sky
He has raised from the pit and he will set me high
“Psalms 40:2” by The Mountain Goats

31.
Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums
The music and medicine you needed for comforting
So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving
And pluck all your silly strings and bend all your notes for me
Soft silly music is meaningful magical
The movements were beautiful all in your ovaries
All of them milking with green fleshy flowers
While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines
Smelling of semen all under the garden was all you were needing
When you still believed in me
Say what you want to say and hang for your hollow ways
Moving your mouth to pull out all your miracle for me

I know they buried her body with others
Her sister and mother and 500 families
And will she remember me 50 years later
I wished i could save her in some sort of time machine
Know all your enemies
We know who our enemies are
Know all your enemies
We know who our enemies are

Goldaline my dear
We will fold and freeze together
Far away from here
There is sun and spring and green forever
But now we move to feel
For ourselves inside some strangers stomach
Place your body here
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine
“Oh Comely” by Neutral Milk Hotel

32.
I’m going out sleepwalking
Where mute memories start talking
The boss that couldn’t help but hurt you
And the pretty thing he made desert you
I’m going out now like a baby
A naïve unsatisfiable baby
Grabbing onto whatever’s around
For the soaring high or the crushing down
With hidden cracks that don’t show
But that constantly just grow
I’m looking for the man that attacked me
While everybody was laughing at me
You beat it in me that part of you
But I’m going to split us back in two
Tired of living in a cloud
If you’re going to say shit now you’ll do it out loud
It’s 2:45 in the morning
And I’m putting myself on warning
For waking up in an unknown place
With a recollection you’ve half erased
Looking for somebody’s arms to
Wave away past harms
I’m walking out on center circle
The both of you can just fade to black
I’m walking out on center circle
Been pushed away and I’ll never go back

Accomplishing nothing in the way of school! Tonight is going to be filled with u.s. history and lit prep! Also last minute hand-made gifts!

It has been QUITE a long time since I was on this website!

I regret not keeping track of every single day. So many things have happened.

Last night I was in a one act at a local high school – I felt incredibly accomplished afterward. Both of the teachers who led us have become so important to me.

I really miss being on antidepressants – I could actually function when I was on them. I’m starting to get my motivation back THANK GOD6 months ago

I saw Prince and was shocked that I enjoyed it so much! School bores me, and work is piling up. I came across a quote today that I can’t stop thinking about

You have no idea how true that can be. I smile when it rains – it doesn’t rain much in Chicago anymore. 8 months ago
