If I say it on Tumblr it must be true.
For Lent, I am giving up the part of the internet that I waste my time with. This means no facebook, no tumblr, no twitter, no excessive amounts of television shows. This however does not mean I will not correspond with you. If you send me an email or a message through one of these time wasting sites, I will respond. I am not giving up my friendships, I am giving up staring at my computer for...

My favorite thing about living in SF
Sometimes the air smells like the ocean. Anyone who disagrees me hasn’t lived away from the ocean very much.

Good morning! Here’s another article on how doctors might kill us. This time though I actually read the article and I think that its probably entirely bullshit. Oh well. YOU’RE WELCOME!

Honest question, though. Seriously.

Hypochondriacs Unite!
For reasons I am not at liberty to tell you (and there is a normal reason I swear), I now have to sort through a ridiculous amount of articles that sometimes happen to be about medical things that may or may not hurt you. Since this is slowly turning me into a paranoid hypochondriac, I have decided to start a semi-daily segment where I link you guys to terrifying articles. This one is about how...

What I remember from the first time I saw a harry potter book was the pretty cover. The artwork was detailed, the colours and had a well-balanced combination between dull mystical colours as well as warm and vivid ones giving that magic touch. On the top of that,…

sarcasticcity replied to your post: I liked the Olympics before it was cool
I LOVE the olympics! and I’ve loved them ever since I was little. I love hearing the awesomely sappy stories about certain athletes & cheering them on. Mostly, I’m just massively impressed by how awesome & skilled these people are.
Hahaha! Yes, I love the sappy stories! I spend a lot of the olympics screaming at...

I liked the Olympics before it was cool
Okay, Tumblr, I have a dumb question. What do you think about the olympics? I personally LOVE the olympics and watch as much of it as I can. I can’t really explain my love for the olympics, I just love it. (I may or may not be a little biased due to the fact that HORSE THINGS happen in the olympics and I grew up around horses) I was talking to a friend yesterday and she said the...

DEAR TEAH
I have never missed your presence more than when I went to the Tour De Nerdfighting thing ALONE AND WITHOUT YOU!
It was wonderful and I had a great time and I met wonderful nerdfighters! Also, the fact that when 500 miles came on like 75% of the audience started marching was a beautiful thing! All in all it was a touching and overwhelming experience.
However, Teah, do not take any of this to...
Dear world
Imagine you see a news article about politicians advocating something really fucked up. Imagine that fucked up politician is in Tennessee. This is really likely because the tea party movement is based there. An appropriate response is to be angry and disturbed. An inappropriate response is to bash the entire population of Tennessee.
While I wish tn would stop making it so hard to be from...

NEWS OF BATTLES WON
My tumblr followers will be pleased to know that I will stop bitching due to the following:
1. My thesis draft is COMPLETE!
I was writing all day today in the studio and I sat in shock for 30 minutes after I was done. I cleaned everything up and hiked back to the car. I spent my entire ride home SQUEALING LIKE A LITTLE GIRL.
2. My neighbor helped me defeat the smoke detector horcrux
