hey there.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

i'm sorry.

i had to.

just so you know.

So.
Shit happens. And what do I do when it does? Forget about it. Distract myself. Let it go, because chances are, there isn't one thing I can do about it.
So for people who dwell and sit in a hole filled with their own despair, distract yourself. Grab a shovel and take out the despair, if you want to take that metaphor WAY to far.
It seems like everyone is a little down in the dumps lately... so if you are, consider my advice... because just like you, i've been through crap.
And you can cry and cry, or you can rise up and pretend it's not there.

Probably not healthy... but it works.

twitterpatin'!

Yessiree.
It's that time of year once again, ladies and gentlemen.

Twitterpating.

Yup. That's what I said.
Don't tell me you haven't seen Bambi!!

You know, the boy skunk sees the girl skunk. They go off.
The boy rabbit sees the girl rabbit. They go off.

And then Bambi finds his "doe" and then they're off.

That's right.

Twitterpating.

*inspired by a lovely talk on a saturday night. and then a similar conversation at youth group the following night. ironic.*

help! i fell in a ditch.

Sometimes I just don't feel good enough.
Pretty enough.
Smart enough.
Talented enough.
Fun enough.
It's a terrible feeling... and often I don't know if I finally see myself for what I really am, or if I'm temporarily lacking some self esteem.
And then I don't know what to think.
And then I just want to cover my head with my blanket, and pretend that the rest of the world isn't there... because if I have nothing to compare myself to, how can I not be good enough?

This isn't me digging for compliments.

This is simply... me.

i've got a question for you...

The last thing I wanted to do was hurt him.
So I let him go,
put him down
gently.
But I didn't offer a hand back up.
Lord knows whats in store
for me
and that other Man
far away.
But I want him
now.
Yet my time has not yet
come.

corner of your heart.

When i think if i have "found myself'', I realize that I'm not really looking. The only time I really realize what I'm doing is when people are watching me... or when I notice anyways.
And I know people don't always like what they see. I'm too loud. Or I don't care about them. Or whatever they feel they need to say about me.
But I can't always be what other people need to see. If you don't like what you see, have the courage to look in a mirror and fix yourself before you find the flaws in me.
I'm not saying I don't have actual flaws... because I know I do. Oh, I do... but everything goes so much deeper than any label anyone can say.
So please. Think twice before you say something about someone else... because word travels fast, and we are so much more vulnerable than what we like to believe.
