About love
“And I believe people are wrong who think love prevents one from thinking clearly, for it is then that one thinks very clearly and is more active than before. There is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love as between and unlighted lamp and one that is burning. The lamp was there and it was a good lamp, but now it sheds light too, and that is its real function. And love...

My baby daddy is a HS football coach and if his game gets enough votes it will be televised. I know this isn’t as cool as a Fox News poll or anything like that but it would be really great if y’all could follow the link and vote.

Allergic to life
These last few weeks I have been struggling with horrible stomach pains. Serious stomach pains. John-Hurt-in-Alien-style stomach pains. I thought it was just my body expressing how much it hates me, as per usual, but was nagged into going to the doctor by my loving mother. Dr. referred me to an allergist and I had my appointment yesterday.

I am going to the ocean!
Welll, I am going to Tampa Bay, Florida, which apparently isn’t near the ocean so let me rephrase and say I am going to the bay!! Woot, woot.
