You pried my eyes open.

About Me

I am a penniless 21 year-old college student aspiring to become a mad scientist.

Some people think I am quite strange, and that's all right because I really am.

I enjoy staying up until 5 am and getting up at 5 pm.

I have two beautiful guitars, Sadie and Satine, two beautiful cats, Piper and Walter, one beautiful hermit crab, Simon (RIP Lucy), and two beautiful fish, Steve and Bill (RIP Brucie).

I like creating new chemical compounds and naming them things such as Jake and Harold.

If I didn't care about my future, I'd just be a groupie and follow my favorite bands/artists around the world. Sadly, I should probably get through grad school first.

I'm actually pretty lame, but I kind of like it that way because there's less drama.

Letters and soda.

Hey, remember when I said I wouldn't do oral surgery ever again?  Well, two days later, I did.  I discovered that I could actually see the little object through the skin.  I determined ...

I've never sunk this low.

As many of you are aware, a couple of months ago I proceeded to get really drunk (alone) and blacked out, resulting in a concussion, broken nose, chipped tooth, and split lip.  Well, everything e...

At Least Not Today.

I really hate it when my biological clock rears its ugly head, because then I go into these long periods of depression when I just want to be pregnant.  It's really not a fun time.  Then I g...

WHY?

Does everyone else have the new VS album except me?  What am I, garbage?   Don't answer that, Myrna.

Nothing Can Compare.

So as it turns out I'm still in love. As much as I try to deny it. A look, a glance, a sentence.  Just the way you walk. It's kind of hell.
