Life lessons with Emma:
If you’re prepping for a night of excessive drinking, put a few Tylenol in a little sandwich baggie, and keep them in your pillow case. That way, when you wake up too hungover to move, you can just grab your pillow-stash and pass back out. I’m an old person now, and anything more than 3 beers gives me a hangover.
“Out of 1000 college women, reached by the questionnaire, 538 admitted having spooned prior to their marriage. Of this number 375 admitted having spooned with men other than their fiances…”
SCANDALOUS WHORES!
Sometimes I do not love my roomates part 2
In retrospect, now that we’ve all apologized, I’m glad I bit my tongue during the blowout fight we had this week.
Because when he said “You’re not my mom!” it was difficult to not yell back “If I was your mother I would be ashamed to have such a whingey stoner simpleton for a son.”
The important thing is, I didn’t say it.
I thought this 93287298372 times this weekend alone…I’m screaming it in my mind whenever someone tries to talk to me about cool stuff. Then I steer the conversation towards politics and watch the eyes glaze over. Oh, you don’t know what Planned Parenthood is? That’s okay, we can talk about the new Cut Copy some more.

Good deed of the day…
I met a girl on the bus today who was staying in a women’s shelter in London. She was considering getting back together with the boyfriend who pushed her down the stairs while she was pregnant, so she lost the baby, and beat the shit of her on the regular. Recently, he called her and threatened to have her and her family killed. Somehow, no one else in her life had tried to talk her out of getting back together with this scumbag. I emphatically attempted to convince her that she should call the police on this waste of space, get out of that situation, talk to a professional about those years of abuse, and try to go back to school. I hope at least some of what I said to her sank in, but personally, it was a big wake up call. She was the same age as me.
I’m so lucky. I’m so happy. My life is so easy.

Avoid the flourish. Do not be afraid to be weak. Do not be ashamed to be tired. You look good when you’re tired. You look like you could go on forever.
