You think abortion is wrong? Don’t have one. I think killing people is wrong, so I’m not in the army. My tax dollars still go to fund it, though (in fact about 21 cents of each of my tax dollars). My tax dollars also go to keep prisoners on death row even though I think the death penalty is morally wrong. My tax dollars fund Guantanamo and Bagram, extraordinary rendition, and Jim DeMint’s salary, all of which I find disgusting. So why is abortion, a legal medical procedure, so remarkably different that we have to go overboard making sure tax dollars don’t fund it?

I had the best birthday!
It was so unexpected as I hadn’t really planned on much since I’m saving it all for nyc this weekend. But my friend took me to a nice dinner, outside on the lake. we ate mexican and drank margaritas. THEN, we went to see Junior Boys and what do you know, they are fucking awesome. The lead singer is this bearded teddy bear, would never expect what came out of him. I think i love him. THEN, I met the finest guy who looks like Conrad from Weeds. I saved him as Conrad in my phone even though his name is Rodney, and that fineass calls me sugarplum. fuck yeah!

I once saw my neighbor standing in the parking lot just crying. This morning she saw me coming home in last night’s outfit and makeup while carrying my boots and a bottle of wine. I waved the wave of shame, she smiled, knowingly. I think we’re gonna be friends soon.

This “Day at the Office” cubicle karaoke is amazing.
Does anybody know what company this is? I can’t find any additional details.
I’ll have to admit; I have a slight man-crush on the dude in charge of the whole thing. Look at how into it he gets!
omg, looooooove it! this is hilarious, i want to be friends with these coworkers!!!

i was looking up recipes for pumpkin martinis & i came across this…quite possibly the grossest looking shot i’ve ever seen…i’m not sayin’ i wouldn’t do like 6-10 anyway, but you know…
bloody brain shooter
Channel your inner mad scientist with this Bloody Brain Shooter. Mixing acidic lime juice and Irish cream causes the cream to curdle, creating brain-like strands in the shot.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 oz. strawberry vodka such as Stoli
1/8 oz. Rose’s lime juice
3/4 oz. Bailey’s Irish Cream
Splash of grenadine
Preparation:
Chill vodka for better smoothness. Add vodka and lime juice to a shaker, shake and strain into a shot glass. Using a straw, dip some Bailey’s Irish Cream into the shot. Once you submerge the straw into the Bailey’s put your finger on top of the straw to hold the Bailey’s in the straw. Dip the straw tip into the vodka and slowly release your top finger. The Bailey’s will curdle a little bit due to the lime juice and you should be able to make strands of Bailey’s.
Repeat the straw/Bailey’s process to build a “brain” in the shot glass. Add a splash of grenadine to the concoction to add the ‘blood’ to the mix. Down the hatch as a shot.
looks disgusting, sounds delicious! I actually love the gore, want to make these!!

I have to go back to europe next year. it’s okay if I don’t end up in Italy. But I have to end up somewhere over there. I miss it waaaaaay too much.
IF: I get a (paying) job for Alex Sink’s governor campaign, then things can wait….

seriously, what the fuck?
so, I tried to figure out if i could quit school. Like, just not have to write this thesis. It all took place during one of my latest bouts of insomnia. yeah, by the way, I have insomnia. I’ve never had problems sleeping before. Maybe it was cable…but I would watch chelsea handler everynight and go to bed promptly at 11:30… every night. Now, I lie (I totally used to say lay, but thanks to my english grammar update, I know the difference…) awake every night, tossing and turning, freaking the fuck out about research papers and doing my own data and writing a thesis and…. then what???? I had a 10 month plan, but part of that included applying for phD programs. (also losing 10 lbs, but that’s the least of my worries right now…) but phD applications and transcripts, say it ain’t so, are out of my price range, AND if this is any indication of what’s to come, I don’t want it. No thanks, I’m stopping here. I said it the other day and I’ll say it again, I want to work. It’s weird saying that, thinking that as I’ve always hated working. but…I really don’t want to go any further in academia right now.
also….I really want to live in europe. i proposed to my old portuguese lover last night. i was somewhat intoxicated, but I was totally serious. I want EU citizenship!!!!!! Anyhow, his response left a lot to be desired, so i told him to find me some friends who are down. ha!
lil wayne looks like a woman sometimes. am i right????
so, i came over to my bffs to get drunk with her, but she was already drunk. she’s mad, i’m mad, we’re both mad about some assholes who aren’t giving us what we want. Why are guys such dicks???/

This computer lab is sooooo cold!
But I just got warmed up by a cute text message…someone doesn’t care what we do tonight as long as we end up in my bed or his.

there is a frog that managed to get into my apartment. But i’m okay with that. Hopefully it was the frog making the creepy noises and not a creepster. Except now the frog is on my shoe. ew.

just heard a really weird noise. It seemed like something was rubbing against my door. It could have been a noise from upstairs, but it totally creeped me the fuck out. My heart is pounding and I can’t stop thinking about the strangers. this is the one draw back to living alone.
Also, I’m starving and I have no food except various types of beans.
