crazy people are everywhere.
I might be one of them,
but I bet you are too.

confession

I am terrified of many things.
Some things include:
  • forgetting everything
  • my teeth falling out
  • human centipedes and movies made about them 
  • being alone
  • ticks 
  • getting shot and/or stabbed 
  • spending any amount of time in jail
  • getting pregnant
  • losing a limb and/or becoming paralyzed 
  • oil spills
  • getting trapped in a fire
That's all I can think of right now, but I know there's more lingering inside of me somewhere. Anyway, it's a beautiful day, I have off from work, but right now I'm sitting inside of my windowless apartment thinking about all the things I'm afraid of. I think this is because I keep having nightmares. I woke up early after having dreamt I was sent to the Gulf of Mexico to administer drugs to animals that were soaked in oil. Everything about that spill makes me mad. Why are we even still using oil? It's because that industry has too much economic weight and so no one wants to go investing in any other sources of energy. Our world is built on money and that's the very thing that's destroying it. It's maddening to think of. I'm taking some art supplies and my sheet to the park, all I want to feel is the sun on my skin.

Motto of the day:
Try not to worry about things that aren't in your control.
