“I just wish I could start a relationship about twelve years in, when you really...”
– Liz Lemon
What's a good stress relieving activity?
I’m so fucking wound up these days. You’d think writing and running would be two great ways to blow off some steam but somewhere along the lines those became major contributers to the problem as a whole.
I want to like…go somewhere where you break glass on people.
Or maybe yoga.
It gets WORSE
Who else is on the “Alice” soundtrack?
All-American Rejects
Metro Station
Mark Hoppus and Pete Wentz (?)
Motion City Soundtrack
Plain White T’s
You know what? I won’t bullshit you. I own music by all of those artists. And “Gives You Hell” is FAR to high on my iTunes Top 25 most played songs of all time.
But for THIS movie? Inappropriate.

What Paul said. Amen.

This is one of the best things I’ve seen in a long time. Check out this ridiculous violent and amazingly insane intro video for an Alaskan College Hockey Team.
This is most violent polar bear I’ve ever seen.
Ohhh wow. I don’t want to spoil it for you but a polar bear DOES blow up the earth.
What is my ex-girlfriend up to?
She rarely uses Facebook. She does not update statuses or change her profile picture. Her newsfeed is fairly stagnant. She comments on someone’s photo here. Somebody posts on her wall there.
It’s just…I don’t get it. How is she living life? And how is she not more active on facebook. This is no longer a college dormroom obsession that you grow out of. It’s a way of...

fuckyeahmichigan:
Michigan became the 26th state on January 26, 1837.
Tonight seems like a good night to stay in, eat hot dogs, watch TV and pretty much wallow in self-loathing.
Somehow I manage to have the worst luck when it comes to finding healthcare in this town. Is it LA? Are a majority of the medical professionals in LA fucking LUNATICS?
Most recently I went to the dentist who referred me to a plastic surgeon for cosmetic rhinoplasty. I went to his Yelp! page and the image that comes up is the injury sustained by the ex-girlfriend he was found guilty of assaulting...
Sorry to be repeating the story all over, but my dentist DID just tell me I needed a nose job, then proceeded to call a plastic surgeon and hand me the phone.
Also he says I grind my teeth. Of course I do! It’s stress! Due to my hideous nose!
“How lucky can I be to have two such passions. Show business and animals....”

Look, assholes.
I am allowed to be cold when it is 45 degrees, rainy, and I have a body acclimated to warm weather.
I am fully aware that your winter is colder than mine. I NEVER SAID IT WASN’T.
If you like Miley Cyrus, Gabourey Sidibe, and the sound of my voice, come see me do Not Too Shabby at UCB tonight at midnight.

WORD OF THE DAY
Here’s a new thing I’ll do!
I get word-of-the-day emails but I always feel they just go in one ear and out the other…and I’m not ABSORBING them. I’m not APPLYING my newfound knowledge.
So every day I will tell you all the word, then use it in a sentence!
Today’s word….BIBELOT

The UCB Theatre is doing its part to help the victims of the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12th, 2010 with a special fundraising edition of ASSSSCAT.

So damn fucking STRAIGHT I’m gonna pick a dentist in Beverly Hills.
“I think that text messaging has made students believe that it’s far more...”

I always use proper grammar and spelling in my texts. Why? Because I’m not a 12-year-old girl on instant messenger.

the average game broadcast shows 11 minutes of actual gameplay and 67 minutes of people standing around.
“In other words, if you tally up everything that happens between the time the ball is snapped and the play is whistled dead by the officials, there’s barely enough time to prepare a hard-boiled egg. In fact, the average telecast devotes 56% more time to showing...
