I feel Jesus and vodka in this tumblr.
marissaallison:
Mainly vodka.
WHAT ABOUT BEER? DON’T DISCOUNT BEER’S PRESENCE.
According to that celeb look alike site thingie
marissaallison:
I look like some asian chick, some douchey looking nerd dude, Kate Winslet, Ziyi Zhang, and Meryl Streep.
I am going to go with no, myself. You’re a lovely lady, but not one of those.

You should know, I even have sub-classifications in my organizational plan.
For example, my book of phone numbers, filed in Things That Will Become Visible With Enough Repeated Checking Of The Same Places, can be found within the sub-file Under The Cookie Sheets On The Bookshelf.
It’s so easy to navigate!
I think you should know, I have MAD organizational skills.
For example- the list of people whose phone numbers I want to put on my new phone was filed carefully in That Pile Of Shit On The Floor Over There. The book with said numbers in it is in the meticulously tended Things That Will Become Visible With Enough Repeated Checking Of The Same Places.
Top that, yo.
Biggest and Brightest Full Moon of 2010 Tonight →
fuckyeahtheuniverse:
First full moon of 2010. The moon also happens to be at its perigee, meaning its around 31k miles closer than normal.

In the last couple hours I have learned more about the shady mystery that is my childhood than I have ever known. I feel shell-shocked, and like I need a long time to absorb it all, all these clarified shadows and revealed mysteries, like I might cry from the weight of the past and of the revelations, but it is good, it feels so good to know.

any and all types of fruit spreads should be chunk...
birminghamdrunk:
preserves are a no.
jelly is a yes.
smooth, homogeneous, chunk free fruit spread is WHERE IT’S AT.
I will take all of those chunks off your hands. You need never worry about them again.

*Sigh* I give up. I do not have the energy to grease 392 nubbins by hand. I will have to figure something else out.
Do you have oil? You could just pour it over, and then wipe off the excess.
Only the olive sort, and I fear that would lend the waffles a funny taste.

@mariatatuada- nothing is wrong with spray, it’s just not something I have.
Unfortunately, I do have a pretty empty kitchen, a sore knee (so no going to the store) and no money for ordering in. Waffles appear to be my best option for dinner- other options being biscuits, buttered macaroni, or kidney beans. I am trying to see if this will work, or if the other options are my only options.
Um, funny question.
How do you grease a waffle maker? Without spray? I mean, am I supposed to smear a buttery paper towel around all the nubbins, or something?
Things you learn when stumbling through your mother’s things:
In early 2003, I was contacted by an insurance company about an accident I had been in while in a car they insured. They sent a letter to what they apparently thought was my address, which was actually my mother’s, 3000 miles away from where I was living, and expected a prompt reply. Had that stack of papers not just...
OH MY GOD. What is the point of carefully scheduling laundry room times, Anal Condo Board, if your members are just going to ignore reservations and break my joyful streak of avoiding you all? Is it just to taunt me?

I am overwhelmed by the amount of laundry there is to do. I will be using my entire 3 hour laundry room block, and all but one of my quarters.
…If the laundry is overwhelming me perhaps I shouldn’t do a major apartment reorganization.
Last night I found a way to rearrange the main room of my apartment to give me both a spacious studio with plenty of light and some available wall space, and a fully functional sitting room space.
Problems: I need a couple drywall anchors to make it work. I will actually be adding a shelving unit (a more stable one, which is less likely to fall on me in an earthquake. This is important.) which...

Trying to rearrange my apartment so as to like it more always results in the same sticking point: too much frustrating, extraneous furniture.
a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a asked: And how about you, Miss Shirley? What would you do?
Also, how would you feel about a hundred burritos? I think that sounds pretty good right now.

I am curious.

I am amused that, as I sit here with all these art-ideas swarming through my head, I am focusing on stitching a cat-shaped toy for my cat. I know how to prioritize.
Mispronunciation
mariatatuada:
I should probably correct my children when they say “calapitter” instead of “caterpillar”, or “aposterpee” instead of “apostrophe”, but it’s so charming I can’t bring myself to do it. Oh, and “Hollow Kitty” instead of “Hello Kitty”.
I figure, hell, they’re 7 years old. They’ll say it right eventually. If they’re still doing it at 13, maybe we’ll need to have a chat about it,...
