misfortune, woe

Holy God, updating my blog.

Things that have happened to me lately:

1) got a new job where I get paid partially in bread

2) dragged myself through finals

3) lost most of my love for nicki minaj; transferred it onto remy ma (specifically, the single "conceited" which I had somehow never heard of but is basically the cooler lady version of right said fred's "i'm too sexy")

my mind right now:



(actually it's mostly captivity narratives and post-soviet politics, but whatever)

ALSO, this happened



So, I have this stupid painting of St. Lucy holding her eyeballs on my mantle. It looks kind of like this except not drawn with a laptop touchpad. Anyway, it's HUGE and on a gigantic piece of plywood like material. Since it is on the mantle it is surrounded/covered by random crap and knick-knacks: wooden owl, fertility figure salt shakers, big glass candles, Diana's employee of the month plaque, weird Talking Heads booklet that James Damon left when he went to Japan, etc. Kind of a mess, but has been completely unremarkable otherwise for months UNTIL



I was just minding my own business killing myself for some stupid paper when out of the blue the whole thing FELL ON ME...which also meant everything else crashed down, including lots of things made out of glass, so there was lots of horrible shattering and now you can't walk through our living room without shoes because there are still little pieces of glass everywhere

this is my life
welcome back to hearing about it
