This sucks, right?
Correct.
Um… the spare NBA key is under the rock in front of the fountain. Didn’t anyone tell you that?

I, like the, idea, but, it’s not going to, be, applied so, judiciously, is it? The, Shatner comma is, powerful indeed, but cannot, WILL, not, be overused.

The kitchen will not be new. The layout isn’t as great. But it was a cool place.
This is what it feels like to go with your second option, I suppose.
Let’s do it!
Now, how likely is it that I’ll be able to get out of the month’s rental of the storage locker I just put all my stuff in yesterday?

Namely curly headed gorgeous men in tunics all holding wolf puppies.
I remember that! Victoria, I am once again way ahead of you in the watching of a TV series. Wait until you get to the part where that character you want to see more of dies!
Okay that probably doesn’t happen. I don’t know.
PUPPIES

Hers was a normal life, but the part of her that longed to strain against that, change it, so often lost out to the part of her that reveled in the normal mundanity of it all.
Sometimes, she leaves a grocery store and realizes halfway to her car that she’d forgotten something. She turns around and brings with her what she’s already purchased. And every time, without fail and without...

Joffre Baratheon, gold of hair.
My “holy shit” meter just went off.
Oh snap to the snap.
Landlord numb-nuts is going to let me know "today...
I guess looking at my application yesterday was too much to ask for. I just really want to know whether or not I can have this place, or whether I have to go elsewhere. This guy is impossible to get a hold of, and doesn’t seem to grasp the urgency of the situation.
The current plan is to move my things into storage today and hope he gets back to me soon about whether or not I can move it...

We started circulating E-Book readers at the library today. I’m avoiding looking at the books in my apartment because it feels like I’ve betrayed them somehow.
You were just following orders.
Landlord here suggested I call the guy at the new...
I think I will. I don’t want to seem pushy, especially since I feel like I’m bugging him by wanting to move stuff in tomorrow even though there’s still some renovation going on. But I really like this place, and there is the minor issue of not having anywhere to live as of Friday if I don’t get it.
I did nothing at work but worry all day. That’s it. I just had a nice...

I honestly looked up the symbolism of spiders and what sort of omens they may represent.
I don’t like who I become when I am worried about something like this. I don’t know if I want this decision to be completely out of my hands, or if I want to try and influence it, or if I’m okay with knowing I can’t really influence it, or if I have influenced it already for better or...

If it is not, I do not have a place to live as of Friday.
I left this all too close to the wire and I think maybe I deserve to be screwed over here.
I just really don’t want to be.
So I’ll make it through today, hoping. Hoping a lot.
Please tell me that my application will be approved.

That was me I think! Unless someone else also said it, which is equally plausible!
It was you, TV’s Chase Mitchell!
Wait a minute…
You’re not from TV! Fuck!

Rentin' Fun!
My apartment won’t be ready for July 1st, despite being advertised as such.
The kitchen won’t be done until next week, apparently.
But, assuming he approves my application, he’s going to “let me know” if I can at least move my stuff in on Wednesday, since that’s the only day of the week my dad can bring the truck up for me. I’m just glad that the...

Wait, The U.S. has banned Kinder Surprises? →
All I’m saying is, kids in Canada know which part of it is chocolate and which part is a plastic toy.
I’M JUST SAYING.

After some carefully carried out market research I’d like to announce that this poem is a picture of a cat. Given the medium I should be a famous writer in about 45 minutes
Tumblr has been solved, ladies and gentlemen.
flashover
dictionaryofobscuresorrows:
n. the moment a conversation becomes real, which occurs when a spark of trust crosses the room and jolts the delicate circuits you keep insulated under layers of irony, momentarily grounding the static emotional charge you’ve built up through decades of friction with the world.

Also, our knight won.

From out the brother’s wound that day steam...
