Uplift...

She had a great attitude, she was cute, had expressive eyes, and was able to carry a conversation in a way that few others can. She was smart, and smiled a lot. She listens to indie-rock and grindcore, and made fun of hardcore and emo kids. She volunteers at the Art Institute and at a community center. She was seventeen years old, and my last patient of the day. The kind of patient that - even when I'm hungover, at the end of a long, full day, and underslept and exhausted - really makes me love my job.

One of the Funniest Things I've Seen In a Long Time...

I've watched this several times. Can't stop laughing. Brilliant.

Fuck February

Fuck February.

Fuck Valentine's Day. Fuck every relationship I've had that ended in February.

Fuck the ennui that starts dogging me after spending so much time inside working on schoolwork. Fuck being tired and fuck perpetual melancholy.

Fuck the virus I seem to come down with every year that knocks me on my ass and takes a while to bounce back from.

Fuck all the schoolwork that's piling up. Fuck the short days that are over by the time I get a chance to do anything.

Fuck the snow and ice that doesn't seem to melt. Today's the first time I've ridden the Vespa in three weeks.

So fuck February. Fuck it.
