Coffee Coffee Coffee

Cramps plus a cold suck. I have spent the entire day curled up in my reading chair under a blanket with a heating pad and a book, dozing between chapters. And while I am almost done with my book, I am not feeling much better.

Well, let's get today's topic out of the way so I can go back to whatever.

Day 6: Five ways to win your heart.

Right now I will just take anyone who can get rid of my cramps and make having my period bearable. But I know that is more information than anyone wanted, but if you're going to win my heart, that's part of it.

Ok, in all seriousness. I am single, I am not looking for anything from anyone, and am perfectly fine living my life all alone. Depressing for some, I know, but I am content. Or am I just content because I don't feel like I'm in a place right now in my life where I can care about another person because I can barely care about myself? The jury is still out on that one.

BUT if I were looking and this person were to hit the majority of these points, well then.. hello!


  1. Indulge me. I don't mean like in food or material things (that is nice, but not where I'm going in this). Like the majority of people with a pulse, people like to talk and share about the things they like. I would like someone who wouldn't mind me incessantly prattle about the things I like, be it comics, movies, politics, etc. and that person would care about the things I say. In a perfect world, this would completely be reciprocated, so this is a must for me.
  2. Dancing. I don't mean hitting up the club every weekend, and I don't mean formal dancing, but I'm an adult who has spent the last 13 years watching Grey's Anatomy and have had too many one-sided impromptu dance parties. So to win my heart, when the opportunity presents itself, or when the moment calls for it, put on some rockin' tune and just dance with abandon! I'm sure more people would live happier lives if we all did this. Hell, I would be happier if I did this more than a few times a year. 
  3. Be encouraging. Now, this could be seen as the same as indulgent, but it's not. We all have dreams and goals and having someone in your corner keeping your head clear and your feet grounded but at the same time encouraging you to reach for the starts, while it's not an easy thing to do, its a must for me. And like #1, it would be completely reciprocated. Also, I have this life philosophy that a person should try everything at least once, that way you can discover with an open mind whether its something you like or maybe don't like. That person needs to understand that and have the same point of view when it comes to trying something new, and we could encourage each other to not chicken out on new things.
  4. Be able to cook. I'm decent (I still haven't made good on my promise to cook more this year, oops), and I'd love it if this person had the same zeal that would be found in #3 to want to try new things and cook new things. And while we all love eating out, I prefer a nice homecooked meal eaten at home with the family. So yeah, know how to cook.
  5. Coffee/Tea. Back when I drank enough coffee to kill a human, the idea of someone randomly showing up with a cup of coffee would be enough to make me swoon. I blame the TV show "Castle". Now that I drink a cup once in a blue moon, I've switched to tea. But again, the idea of someone showing up with a cup just to see me smile, yeah that's pretty awesome.


Ok well now you know how to win my heart, good luck seeing if any of this is even true, because I'm not even 100% sure it is. After all, it's not like I'm looking.

STARTING...AGAIN?

Start. Stop. Start. Stop. Start. Stop. It seems to be a constant trend no? And it’s not like I don’t have the time to update this and actually keep track of… well everything. A routine is what I need, but how do I hold on to a routine when work doesn’t allow me to? Meaning that my schedule varies week to week, and I’ve just started school again (yay?), and I need to start getting my butt into the gym again. Ok. So that’s what I’ll do. I will set a routine, or attempt to. I will sit down either at this laptop or my phone and just write. Doesn’t matter what I write, as long as I put letters together to make words, to then makes sentences, to then make paragraphs, etc etc. Start. Stop. Start. Stop. Let’s leave this on a Start

Be a Super.

I'm gonna be honest. I really don't feel like doing this today. I physically do not feel good, and there's a bunch of stuff currently going on behind the scenes that I just don't want to discuss in a public space. It might be like this for a while, so these posts are probably going to be short for a bit. Sorry. Day 2: A person you admire. I think I covered something similar last month, and I think I said something along the lines that people can always let you down so try not to put much hope in other people. And considering how the mighty have fallen all over, its hard to have heroes. So I'm going to go with the fictional kind. I've been reading a lot of old Wonder Woman Comics, and the more I read, and the more I move away from the movie representation (which I love btw), the more I look to a fictional character for strength. And this isn't the first time I do this. It's very easy for me to look to fictional characters for inspiration and str...

Which definition?

Day 27: Conversely, write about something that's kicking ass right now.  This feels like an AP English assignment, that is if I'm understanding the use of the word "Conversely". Most white allies would rather not use their privilege for anything other than making a small statement, although conversely some white allies will be kick ass like Jessica Chastain and use her position of power to make sure her costar Octavia Spencer be paid the same as she, using her white privilege for good. That is the standard definition and use of "Conversely" that I am aware of. Or do they mean "conversationally"? In that case: Did you guy hear how Jessica Chastain is totally kicking ass right now? From what I read online, she saw that her friend and co-star Octavia Spencer was getting the same amount of pay that she was getting for the same project. So instead of just stating her objection like most white allies, she actually did something about it. She to...
