Based in Boston.

Fuck You.

July 13, 2009 · 1 Comment

Hopefully, for my own sanity’s sake, I’ll be completely over and done with these hate-filled, ridiculous blog posts some day.

But today is not one of those days.

For those that know me in real life, you are [probably] well aware that I put up with absolutely zero bullshit. Don’t even try – you will not succeed. I think that comes from all the years that I was a pushover to men. If someone liked me, paid me the slightest bit of attention, I was all mush and a fucking doormat. When my ex and I broke up, I sacked up [to use a masculine term] and started with a no-nonsense approach to men*.

When it comes to guys I encounter in my life now, do one thing wrong and you’re out. I don’t have time for your excuses, your bullshit, whatever it is. Just don’t even try to fuck with me. I’m not having it.

It’s just weird that, a year and a half after our break-up, my ex is still giving me bullshit. Sort of indirectly. But I’d really like him to disappear – poof – into the wind, never to be heard from again. Alas…this won’t happen**.

So, with no-bullshit attitude I have, even the smallest things just set me off. Hey, maybe it’s the hormones*** – but who really knows. Either way, he pissed me off tonight…and didn’t even have to try very hard.

I was reading the Facebook wall of a mutual friend of ours, and I saw the ex had recently posted something. But I couldn’t click on his name, and couldn’t see his picture – though I could still see his name and what he wrote. I know he had de-friended me back in the spring [which was really a blessing, actually], but this now meant he had blocked me. There is no way for me to search for him, message him, see our mutual friends – nothing. Not that I want to, but seriously – what was the point of him blocking me? Had I done anything wrong to him? Had I emailed or otherwise contacted him or his fiancee at any point since he told me he was engaged in January? No, I had not. I left him completely alone. HE is the one who wanted to be friends, and keep in touch, and all that bullshit. I have a feeling, though, that he got the hint that I didn’t feel the same say when he possibly read the Facebook event I made celebrating the year anniversary of me getting rid of “the douchebag toolbag ex who none of my friends and family liked anyway.” It was shortly after this event was published that I noticed we were no longer “friends.” 

Whatever. Just…fuck you, dude. FUCK YOU. I’m trying to move on with my life and not be so mad at the way you basically lead me on to think you really loved me, just to get me to move to Boston, pay half the bills, cook and clean, have sex once a week [at most - you know, whenever you wanted to], and betray me the way you did. And YOU have the gall to block ME! I’d block you back, but I don’t give a SHIT what you think about me. Hell, I’d let you see my whole fucking profile, just to make sure you know how much happier I am and how much better my life is without you.

But I’m pretty sure you already know.

One more thing: I pray to God that you won’t be moving to DC next year after you graduate, because that is my plan. If I see you around Capitol Hill, I may not be able to keep my right hook from connecting with your face. Just a heads up.

 

FOOTNOTES:
* And dating – which may be why I’m still single, almost a year and a half later. Regardless.

** …yet. He does have a serious blood disease where he basically has no immune system. So, should the apocalypse come, he’d be one of the first to die…ooh, is that too cruel?

*** I am about 5 days out from my period – and I do have a history of depression, which I believe exacerbates my PMS to a point just shy of homicidal rage towards men.

Listening To: “Gold Lion”

July 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Gold lion gonna tell me where the light is.

This song came out a few years ago, but I just discovered it during one of my recent music downloading sprees. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are quickly making their presence known in my iTunes library, and I’m sure this song will make it to the “Top 25 Most Played” in the very near future.

God, I sound like Casey Kasem.

Anyway, check it out.

Listening To: “Use Somebody”

July 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Most recent music obsession – Kings of Leon, “Use Somebody.”

I’ve been roaming around
I was looking down at all I see
Painted faces, building places I can’t reach

You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you…

Unrelated [or maybe more related than I think], I’m just feeling…odd. My old boyfriend [not the ex-douche I've mentioned before] is now engaged to his baby mama, and they just gave birth to their second son. He and I are still friends, and I’m happy for him – and I honestly wish him the best. Just feeling a little wistful, I suppose. 

And maybe I could use somebody…

Whatevs.

June 20, 2009 · 4 Comments

Sometimes…I get in those moods…

…where not only do I feel like I am going to be single forever…

**Wait…before you start commenting like mad, let me finish:**

…but I am okay with being single forever. 

Whatevs. I don’t need a dude. I scroll though pictures of my married friends, and pregnant ones, and I think, ‘Eh. Whatevs.’ I mean, that’s awesome for them – the world needs weddings and babies. And I love both of those things. Just…I dunno, the more I think about it, the more I just don’t see it for me. I just don’t think it’s actually going to happen for me, in my life. Any of it. It’s scary, it’s weird, it seems a little unnatural. But…whatevs. I’m just so…whatevs about it. If that wasn’t apparent already.

But not only does the world need weddings and babies, the world needs crazy cat ladies. Think about it: if the world were completely populated with happy couples and nuclear families…where’s the drama? Where’s the made-for-TV-Lifetime movie specials about fucked up single, crazy women? The 20/20 exposes about dead old ladies whose cats ate their faces after their owners died weeks before? They wouldn’t exist. In a happy-go-lucky world of love and marriage, there isn’t room for single, old cat ladies. And I, for one, am glad the world isn’t a utopia like that. Because, it seems, I am about two cats shy of being a mid-twenties crazy cat lady. 

And I may have to just learn to accept this, with open fucking arms.

Sigh. Whatevs.

Right Now.

June 14, 2009 · 2 Comments

I just love chocolate-covered pretzels. 

And herbed goat cheese.

And most foods that don’t involve: mustard, mushrooms, or strange meats/animal innards. 

Oh, and also: Brussels sprouts can go fuck themselves. Hate those things. 

Everything else food-wise is [probably] fair game. Especially chocolate-covered pretzels. 

Tangent: I’m tired of writing about dating. So I think I am going to stop. Brief wrap-up [for the three of you who actually care]: Still at square one. Realizing more and more I am “difficult” to deal with – don’t put up with bullshit, and have no qualms with telling dudes as such. Should probably just move to the left coast and start over. Again.

That’s it.

Walden Pond

June 12, 2009 · 2 Comments

I went to Walden Pond today and tried to channel Thoreau. I didn’t end up writing at all, but I brought along my charcoal pencils and decided to try to draw some crappy pictures. They ended up not being terrible. Well, not that terrible – not as terrible as I thought they’d be. Amazingly, I got a bit of perspective in the wall drawing. Surprised me. And thus, I will probably leave my charcoals at home from now on and stick with pen and paper. Why try to top something that isn’t perfection but you know you can’t really do better??

Row 1: (L to R) My tree; the actual tree I was trying to draw; the tree, edited in iPhoto.

Row 2: (L to R) My stone wall; the actual stone wall I was trying to draw; the stone wall edited in iPhoto.

The photos turned out really well – even though they were just with my iPhone. It was a fun day, and nice to visit the pond.

Yeah, but not the real version…the literal video version.

Trust me, it’s incredible. Take a look.

Purge.

June 5, 2009 · 1 Comment

Confession:

Sometimes I read your blog. It’s not bookmarked in my web browser or anything, so I have to Google it. But I know the right words to enter that will lead me to your beloved site that you are oh-so proud of having.

I roll my eyes when I read those phrases that I’m sure you felt so proud of writing. Or when you use words like “interstitial” or “in medio.” I gag when I read your mention of your “fiancee.” I cringe when you talk about “kissing her longingly.” For many reasons. 

Mostly because you are a disgusting human being and you make me sick. And I feel bad for that poor girl, who is obviously under some kind of spell of yours, or is drugged daily. She could do so much better than you.

I’m glad it’s not be being mentioned in your blog anymore. I’m glad to be rid of you. Well, physically, anyway. The thoughts linger sometimes. Like now. And I Google you to find out what sort of sickening things you’re up to. And I am reminded over and over again how much better off I am. 

It’s like syrup of ipecac, really. Thoughts of you. And there are some nights when I just need to fucking purge. 

Maybe the more I do it, the less traces of you will still be with me. 

Well…one can only hope.

Listening To: “L.E.S. Artistes”

May 27, 2009 · 2 Comments

I was recently introduced to Santogold. I like this song a lot.

“I can say I hope it will be worth what I give up.
If I could stand up mean for the things that I believe.”
