metal-teeth replied to your post: Good news and less-than-good news from the rheumatologist today.
i’m glad about your kidneys and no chemo! i’ll wish for you next 11:11!
ohmygod… this is like the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me… you are too sweet <3
The only thing in the world more valuable than 11:11 wishes is Big Tree wishes.

abby-cdefg-deactivated20120724 asked: Happy tears when I saw your post. Literally, I teared up. Tell your kidneys I said good work.
a confession.
reading stories about mother who are battling lupus just depresses me.
i mean i’m sick, but i can still get out of bed most days. i can still feed myself and read and go to work.
but i see all these women who can’t. women who are in their thirties and have had two strokes and are bed-bound or stuck in a wheelchair or are blind or who have to be spoon-fed.
and...
My car is dead.
Totally fucking dead.
Diagnosed with fibromyalgia and my car dies IN THE SAME DAY
fuck everything.

You know how sometimes you're having a bad day so...
ya.
it’s been one of those days.
i’m just gonna go get in the shower and use my boyfriend’s body wash so that i can smell like him and pretend he’s here

Atoms: I might just unfollow you if.... →
atomss:
you make one of those ‘it’s not lupus’ jokes from House. I can’t quite put my finger on why it annoys me / bothers me so much, but I’ll try to explain a little.
first of all, sadly, it often IS lupus. It is present in over 1 out of every 250 women of color, actually. 1.5 million Americans have…

Good news and less-than-good news from the...
Good news:
My kidney function has drastically improved. (yay!)
No chemo this winter. (double yay!)
Less-than-good news:
In addition to arthritis, a significant amount of the pain I’m in is probably caused by fibromyalgia (both the fibromyalgia and the arthritis are caused by lupus). It sucks that in addition to everything else, I now have fibromyalgia TOO, but this is still kind of...

Meeting with the parfumer went well I think. I feel like we articulated what we wanted and narrowed the scents down to some we’d be happy with. I don’t want to give anything away, but think pink and cream soda. =]
PS I found out that the model from my Modern Embroidery shoot just signed with Ford Agency. In case you don’t know who that is… well, if you care about fashion,...

I'm going with the editors of the magazine to meet...
We’re in the process of attempting to create a signature scent, and we need to give the parfumer feedback about the sample she gave us, as well as suggestions. Apparently the editors decided I’d be a good person to bring along to help articulate what it is that they want (and don’t want). I’m a little nervous because I’m not a professional or anything and have only...

logicallypositive replied to your post: You guys. I am about to go into my basement.
if there is a hydroponics store near you they should sell this stuff called dr doom, it’s a poisonous bug spray that will clear out whatever is alive in your basement. it’s like a smoke grenade and reasonably priced. try it out
The problem is not what is alive in my basement. The problem is what is undead.
do you know how many spiders live in my basement?
ALL OF THEM.
(i made it to the second-to-last step)
You guys. I am about to go into my basement.
For serious this time. I WILL go down there.
The thing is, it’s like… really bad. I’ve lived here since July and I’ve never been down there. I made it halfway down the stairs twice, but got scared and had to come up. the only people who have ever been down there and lived to tell the tale are my boyfriend, a police officer (who almost shit himself in the process), and my...

I’m not really sure what to make of this.
Anyone care to explain to me why The Great Gatsby...
pacify-eris:

Honestly? I can’t for the life of me think of possible innovations Luhrmann could do to the medium that would do it justice. One critic wrote (and hilariously so) “it will be in 3D which will be so effective in the scene where Gatsby throws ninja stars.”
Yeah. This.

there’s this voice—
every time I think it’s gone for good, it resurfaces. maybe it’s just been waiting for me to need it again.
i know it’s irrational. i know that by trying to be needless, i become needy. i know that by trying to be less like a girl, i become the most neurotic of them all.
but there’s this voice—
I can give you anything you want. I...
Yeah so
I was really sick last night, so John put my daughter to bed and then put me to bed. He left to go to a party but said he’d come home to sleep. I woke up at four and he wasn’t here… so of course I got on tumblr. And there was a picture of him, literally passed out while eating a cheeseburger. So I’m not too worried. I just realllllly hope he makes it to work…

lobizon replied to your photo: Black Friday shopping is only worth it when…
Love Think Geek! Got a few things for my boyfriend from there, and even found a neat puzzle for my step dad (he lives for puzzles)
I know! ThinkGeek is the BEST. I try to mostly shop local but sometimes internet shopping is warranted.. I mean they sell tactical bacon, for chrissakes!
I swear, I get more sex-related injuries than anyone I know.
and I can’t go to the doctor because my gynecologist already gave me the ‘how-rough-is-too-rough’ talk when I came in with a hematoma to my vulva. :/
but it hurrrttttttssssssss

Adarsh: what's the name of the food our people make

Abhi: are you on drugs?
Adarsh: go to sleep this is a dream

The shitty thing about my boyfriend's birthday...
FINALLY found the perfect birthday gift, still have one more to go
t.t
And no matter what I wind up thinking of for Christmas, it will either be infinitely cooler or somewhat less cool than his birthday gift. One of them is just destined to pale in comparison to the other.
i like animal collective a lot.

I woke up this morning and, to my elation, there was an extra toothbrush in the toothbrush holder.
And men’s bodywash in the shower.
He’s actually gonna stay here.
It almost made up for the fact that I was in so much pain that I passed out on the bathroom floor.
I can't wait 'til the stretch/plugs trend is over....
this.
Did you say thank you to your black Friday sales...
shit-its-aazazel:
If you have never worked in retail you can’t imagine how hard it is to work a black Friday sale. So don’t forget your thank you’s this weekend.
THIS.
Black Friday two years ago was the day I decided I had to go to college.
Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.

why do people smoke weed in cars?
i like to smoke weed while getting from point A to point B but I prefer to do it in my assault humvee with a machine gun on the top. why? because what cop is going to pull over a guy with a huge gun on his vehicle?

Lol it’s not a photoshoot, I’m modeling for a life drawing class. It’s doubtful I’ll have pictures to show you but here’s a stencil made from one of my life drawing sessions and the artwork made from the stencil.
