Sometimes I don't care about hanging out with anyone but Forest. This includes my family sometimes. Does this make me a bad person?

e-revenge

Just spitefully defriended someone on Facebook for the first time.

REDACTED

Three days later? Not so fun.

when the cat's away...

I hate it when Max and I are apart, but sometimes SOMETIMES it is just so fun! (Though not as fun as when he is home)

good girl gone bad

I checked out a Rihanna CD from the library. And of all the CD's I check out, when I returned this one, it still shows up on my account. The last time I was at the library, I didn't bring it up when I was checking out, not because the girl was cute, but just in case I think she's cute in the future. So I asked the guy today about it, and even though he was like 19, I confess I was a little embarrassed. Also, I like most of the album, not just "Umbrella."

i'm really bad at spelling...

words that i still struggle with

weird

bardhi helped me figure out jealous....how did i used to spell it?

jelous

also, when is it then/than? ....no idea.

don't judge me.

When I was 10 or so I thought I was going to be a magician, I even met with a professional magician to give me tips on my career path.

vanity

I don't like the fact that I'm friends with so many photographers and none of them have wanted to take pictures of me.

teen punk

I have a crush on the singer of Paramore

I've been looking at engagement rings.....just because I like to look at engagement rings...not because I'm getting engaged.

fifteen minutes isn't enough

I really want to be famous. Or good enough at something that I COULD be famous.

hipster

I check Pitchfork compulsively.

grammar foul

I continued to write the possessive its, "it's" clear into my Junior year of high school.

i resent that when i google 'caitlin gilman' other girls show up...back when i was caitlin millson, i was the one and only.

i can't help it! i LOVE taylor swifts song, "you belong with me"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

whenever we go to a wedding i try to look better than the bride.

cheap skate

I found a table in the alley and i am selling it on craigslist for 30 bucks.

anyone want a table?

"Thus saith..."

in the course of a day i hear a lot of answering machines. one began by quoting a passage from the bible which they attributed to the book of 'fallopians.'

i've been having weird dreams. in my dream last night i was singing a song at a picnic with my sister lauren and my cousin maury. the verse was about pouring four cups of beer in the salsa. maury said they always pour beer in the salsa in texas.

is this true?

jk, but no really.

I use a chopstick to scratch my broken, cast-covered foot. Then I smell it. Then I make a pile of dead skin. Then I let otus eat it. Then I feel guilty.

the IRS is after me

i am NOT joking.

sexism

I have a lower standard for girl musicians (in pop music).

gender confusion

I was mistaken for a girl one time in high school.

I just found out that it's not longer appropriate to put two spaces after a period. Apparently that died with the typewriter, but I can't kick the habit! Not only because it is ingrained in me to put two spaces, but because it makes papers longer, and because how else do you differentiate between a comma/semi colon, and a new sentence!? Anyone else struggling with this? Anyone else not know about this rule?

so maybe when i get bored at work i look on ebay for cheap vintage engagement rings. so what?

i refuse to walk around or move while i am brushing my teeth...i have this great fear that i will fall and the toothbrush will jam into the back of my throat.

embarrassing

so.... my neighbors cole and suzie had their baby this weekend. and i stopped by on sunday to deliver them a frozen lasagna. our conversation went as follows...

Me: So how was everything? How's the baby? I heard that she's in the NICMO?
Cole: NICMO?
Suzie: She's doing fine! She's going to be there for about two weeks.
Cole: I think you mean NICU?
Suzie: I can't beleive you said anything Cole!

Anyway...the story goes on with me trying not to feel like a complete idiot. I thought I was being super birthing savvy by knowing acronyms like NICU....but instead I end up looking like a total idiot. NICMO?!

narcissist

Most-listened tracks on my itunes? My own music.

I got emotional watching the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are.

I don't want him to accept the invitation. Even though Tim wants him there.

in second grade i won a contest for who could draw the best dinosaur by hand............i traced it. and my traced stegosaurus got made into a bookmark for the whole school. who says cheaters never win?

could we be honest with each other for just a second?

I feel like shit. I! feel! like! SHIT! And I want to scream! REALLY LOUD! And maybe cry...A LOT! But I haven't yet! Can I be proud of that?

there's no basement in the alamo

when i was little my mom told me that the reason Pee Wee got arrested was because he took his shirt off in a movie theater. I didn't realize the absurdity of this explanation until I was about 20, and I didn't find out he was in a 'sexy' theater until about three months ago.

also, i still love to watch pee wee's playhouse

true story

i first heard of wikipedia at becca's old apartment at the truman. when i first heard the name wikipedia i thought it had to do with witchcraft and wicca and was an online encyclopedia about wicca

heeheehee

i've started getting jealous when i hear that people i know are engaged. i'm hoping this will wear off.

while on the topic...

first kiss...

7th grade, at a barmitzvah, my bf at the time came up to me and said, "can i french kiss you now?" i said uhh ok. i was a really nervous pre-teen, super awkward around boys. he led me down the stairs of this nice country club and after a few minutes of not being able to find a couch to 'make out on' he said, ah screw it and kissed me.

this was the weirdest kiss ever! both of our mouths were wide open and we just touched tongues for a bit, i was totally freaked out so my eyes were wide open. afterward he said, "first time?" we didn't talk the rest of the night and i think we broke up after that. my next kiss wasn't until three years later.

first kiss... 15, beijing china at "pure girl" a tiny hole in the wall bar on sun li tun's bar street. mike lyons was his name. he kissed another girl right after i left. i was late coming home and was grounded for two weekends. at the time....WORTH IT! mike was definitely and with out a doubt inebraited. could i tell? of course not...i was 15.

i am ashamed my first kiss was in a bar. why was i in a bar at age 15? because i thought i was an adult. this is so embarassing to confess.

i had my first kiss at 19.  it was someone you know.  it was weird.  i've always been embarrassed that i was that old.  for years i wouldnt talk about it.  i started lying about it in high school and i've lied so much that my first-kiss lie is the almost-truth.  parts of me have to really think back to remember how my life actually went.    

I've been spending an irresponsible amount of time in the bath lately.  It gives me solace .

whenever people call me sammy i am certain that they love me. and i love them for calling me sammy.

how can i say this without giving tmi?

soooo, yesterday dan and i googled an intimate, married, sexy topic.

today i was working on a group project and everyone was staring at my computer, when i came home i realized that the phrase we searched was still in the google search bar. they definitely saw! hahahaha

missed connections

I check it from time to time. I confess that I'm a little miffed that after 4 months of living in Ann Arbor, nobody's posted a missed connection about me. But I never regret looking at Missed Connections.

I feel like SH*T

T* an* * **e on * b*e**.

the hardest part about writing to me is that you can just make anything up. how do you keep it all grounded?

facebook roulette

Everytime i sign into facebook chat, I have to scan down the list to make sure there aren't certain people signed in who i really don't want to chat with. (aka. strange boys from my past or that kid from the church activity who I couldn't deny as a facebook friend). Inevitably, I forget to check or am not fast enough at signing out and one of these people with try to chat me up and so I ignore them. and then I feel guilty. and yet, i still sign in. its a sickness!

one of the best blogs i have seen lately

man oh man...

i watched the season finale of THE BACHELOR! and worse than that is....it had me HOOKED!

also, yahoo provides services to its users in the lamest ways possible

if no one comments on your confession post does that mean its stupid? also, why the f*** is poop green sometimes?

there was a point in my life where i wanted to write an autobiography entitled, "screwed on the bell curve."

in retrospect, what a crap title. i no longer feel that way.

i must repeat myself...Bill Maher is my least favorite living person

Did anyone see Bill Maher at the Academy Awards? What an idiot, plugging his own movie and whining that it didn't get nominated. Then using air time to emphasize his point that non-atheists just follow silly Gods. Then he said something stupid like he was grateful we had an elegant president? Whose grateful for an elegant president? Why not capable, promising, even educated, but elegant? Such a smug bastard.

Middle aged, run down professors on a power trip, who thrive in a top down, beaureucratic system can KISS MY ASS.

school house rock groupie

i've become really anal about not ending my sentences with prepositions. For example, in an email I wrote : "We apologize for the extreme action, but this is a serious matter which we can no longer be lenient on. " I reread it, and in disgust readily changed it to: "We apologize for the extreme action, but this is a serious matter on which we can no longer be lenient."

similar to bob

i had tj blocked on gchat for a really long time because once i was signing out and was talking to a lot of people and had to say bye and i knew it would take a while and i had already said bye to him so i thought...oh i'll just unblock him later. but i actually never did and kept thinking for about two months....wow he's really diligent this semester...no gchat or anything. it all climaxed one night when amanda said he was on gchat and i said i couldn't see him and assumed he'd blocked me and got a little upset...but it turns out i blocked him.

woops.

online predators

When I was 16, my AOL profile (remember those?) listed "back door man" under interests. As a huge Led Zeppelin fan, this was a reference to "Whole Lotta Love."

One day a stranger started chatting with me. He was very interested in what made me a back door man. I was initially confused, but after a short dialogue, I discovered that he was looking for someone to have threesomes with him and his wife. Awkward!

I was embarrassed about this and have never told this story until now.

failing g chat

I blocked Hannah from my G Chat because her taglines were so annoying that they used to put me in bad moods.

the only band that matters

I'm really sad that I'll never be as cool as The Clash.

sweats 2.0

I really really really want a pair of sweatpants. Real sweatpants, like these- the most unflattering possible- and I want to wear them all day everyday. I imagine them with paint splatters, bleach spots, and so well worn they are almost transparent. We would love each other. Is that so wrong?

calm down!

I take EVERYTHING personally!

I also LOVE putting lemon and cucumber in my water! Delicious!

i hesitate reading more of shakespeare's plays because when people ask "what are you reading?" i think it sounds cliche to say "shakesepeare."

i went to enrichment tonight.  it took 2 hours.  it was about home organization.  there were a lot of great tips.  still, inspite of the message shared, the only message i took home was that its not worth it to me.

1. i dont want to be someone who cuts coupons.    

2.  i dont want to keep my receipts and check my credit card statements.

3.  i dont care if i wake up and put my dirty clothes back on from the exact pile they were in when i took them off.  i still know where they are.

4.  so we are messy?

5.  i used to think i couldnt feel peaceful in a messy house.  thats not true.  i have learned that i can.

6.  i dont think the saviour cares what my house looks like.  

7.  i think he cares who i am.

8.  i dont know why we spend so much time organizing and reorganizing and packing and moving and labeling and sweeping and shifting and being frazzled when we dont have to.  chill the hell out.

9.  since i stopped caring about our space being clean i have read six books.  quinn is now teaching me to play the drums.  i find i practice the piano.  i think in my spare time.  my drawing has improved.  i am a lot happier.  

confessions, confessions!

1. i think the bsw social work dept is BULL SHIT!BECAUSE- my prof. is giving me a zero on an assignment because i accidentally had other hw stuff attached to it. all of this because i didn't have microsoft word and had to email myself my hw. so she's giving me a zero claiming that a mistake like this would destroy my professional career. dually noted prof. thanks for the advice.

rock bottom

I've started reading the Daily Mail regularly.  My addiction to celebrity gossip has reached a new dangerous level.  

i honestly think snuggies look cool.

i have what feels like the biggest booger in my nose! and i can't get it out! it hurts! winters here are SO dry.

great minds

I like Blagojevich's hair.

mmm

more than getting things done, i love doing nothing in particular, just floating around from task to task, enjoying books and shows and music and sleeping at my leisure.

hates the environment

In the back of my mind I'm skeptical about global warming.

every instinct i have tells me that she should annoy the hell out of me, but in all honesty i love joan baez.

junkie

I just realized I had THREE tabs open on Firefox on the New York Times website. My stomach turned a little bit.

I always try and convince honesty box commenters to tell me who they are.

I LOVE honestly box....except that one time someone left a really crude comment about me....it was really disgusting and unnecessary. and false.

gamer, pt. III

I got all 120 stars on Mario Galaxy and then beat the game again to unlock Luigi. I'm drawing the line at getting all the stars again with Luigi to unlock the last secret level.

when i shower i like to plug the tub to see how dirty i am.

re: challenge

what am I doing?

i don't have what it takes to get the knots out of my hair. and so they forever remain.

force of habit

whenever i walk into a bookstore, toystore, craft store, etc. I always stop at the Klutz books displays and search for pictures of Dan from when he was younger.

for those of you who don't know, this a dan confession: "i modeled for klutz"

writing emails, even about mundane questions or inquiries, makes me feel productive. 

confession challenge:

sum up your life in six words.
