today is one of those days where if it wasn’t so incredibly rude beyond words, i would not take my headphones off for any one. i would just stare up at them with big dark-circled eyes and a blank face. the combination of lack of sleep and complete work freaking outness has left me totally [...]

it’s a liz phair sort of day here. if i start diving into the ani difranco you might want to send in the troops. i’m most needy and lonely today, on this bright fall-like day.
