Note to self
After 28 years, maybe I should realize that when Dad asks, “Wanna go for a drive?,” he means,”Want to open all the gates for me while I drive?” Kind of like how it took me a whole summer in middle school to figure out that “quality time” meant “pulling yellow weed out of the pasture with your hands.”

note to self: find head
I can’t find my head! No really, I just wrote that on a notepad. It’s 4am, the calendar is now on sale! Wooo! But I can’t find the head of my life-size cutout. And at 4am, that’s really, really funny. I can’t find my head!!! Help! It’s in a box! My head! Help!

Also, I think the lawyer thinks I’m crazy because I keep making up elaborate scenarios for my imaginary...

BLONDE ALERT
Exhibit A: Tonight I went to K-Mart, which is 10 blocks away, and it took me 5 hours to get there. I may or may not have run into some friends along the way. Exhibit B: For the past 2 days (or more?), I’ve been tearing apart my apartment, unpacking and re-packing boxes, looking for an imaginary second CD of calendar pictures. Turns out all along, all the pictures were on ONE CD, which has...
