in that Tumblrbot's a dick
Well, it’s no secret that this Tumblr may as well be like a tumbleweed in terms of how many people follow this (all three of you!), but Tumblrbot sure is a dick about it:

in which nothing worked out
So yesterday I was supposed to spend the afternoon/night/early morning playing D&D with friends. I had, however, changed my mind since I was tired. And though I was tired, this was simply a clever ruse.
I was actually going to surprise my significant other by taking him to the beach for our three year anniversary, doing something similar to what we’d done waaay back in our three month...

quite possibly hell
This is how my life feels like right now.
Bland. Boring. Endless. Mechanical. All the things I absolutely detest.
If I detest them though, how did I get to this point? The answer is my job, which essentially consists sitting down at a cubicle in front of a computer and answering phone calls the whole shift. When there are no phone calls, then I’m chatting with coworkers, or else...

lucid dreams
A lot of people have been complaining about the weather. Either there’s too much sun or too much rain. I, however, enjoy the extremes. People fall into gray areas, so it’s hard to find something that can be one thing or the other. Besides, I’ve enjoyed these sunny days. They bring out the best in me. I smile more.
The best part is that I live next to the beach, so when...

floating dreams
Fragmented, that’s how I see myself lately. My life comes together, my friends fall apart, sort of like ocean waves crashing against the shore. Part of me wonders what it’s like to have my life in one whole piece, but mostly I think it might be better to keep myself in pieces. That way, I can hide and tuck away the pieces I find most important, so others don’t steal them away.
