Photography, books, coffee...writing letters with quill pens, witchcraft, reading outside on windy days wearing a sun hat with a scarf and overly large sunglasses. Okay, maybe those last three weren't true per se. Or were they?

Yes, I am one of those annoying people who worships anything Apple. But really, my wee lil macbook changed my life. I could write a sonnet about it. But I won't.
I like persons better than principles, and I like persons with no principles better than anything else in the world. - Oscar Wilde

I Am Not Myself These Days
by Josh Kilmer-Purcell
And I know it's totally cliche, but I <3 Harry Potter. And Anne Rice. And To Kill A Mockingbird.I really don't kow why anyone wouldn't...
I love to:
take long walks on the beach and ride ferris wheels and pet kitties and look at the stars.
I would die without:
things to look forward to. I need to be excited about sh*t, or I'll just...wither away.
I regret:
that time I didn't look before sitting down in health class and someone had left a snickers there to melt and subsequently smear all over my ass. That was f*kin great. Within hours the entire high school was abuzz that I shit my pants. Please tell me how one magically gets the shit on the outside of their pants? Really.
I cannot:
do a kartwheel. But I kill on parallel bars. FYI.
I hope one day I:
...learn how to do a kartwheel. That would be somethin'.
I will never:
let anyone wear crocs in my presence. At least not without giving them some severe fisheye.
I hate people who:
don't replace the toilet paper when they finish a roll. You know who you are! Also: people with wheels on their backpacks (and hidden in their shoes, for that matter.) You can't just surprise a person like that, walking casually by them and suddenly you're gliding like a bat out of hell! Jesus H. Christ. Dammit.
I have never:
had a tattoo. Whatever it is that's so amazing can go on a T-shirt. One day it might not be so important. People change. Ink inserted into your lower back to show how much you love your boyfriend doesn't. .
I once:
had mild short-term memory loss for a day. No one believes me. But it happened. Why, I don't know. It was very peculiar.

"...When I thought that being twenty was old, and that being old was no fun. And when there were billions of stars, not like tonight, when there isn't a single gaddamned one, just that thick smelly orange haze that threatens to come crashing down through the overhead branches and smother me alive. I just want to see one star I saw then. A star that saw me then. So that I know there was a then, and not just this confusing, soul-wrenching, bruising, drunken, face-kicking now."

i love how we drowned together, were we reborn together too? does this make us like catwoman? or maybe twins? but if u were already a triplet and died and were reborn as a twin what does that make u? hmm this is really a good question
