I have no computer for the foreseeable future
I installed updates on my laptop last night and when it restarted, I didn’t have use of my mouse. Actually, I just couldn’t click my mouse. I still had full function to move it around the screen and use multitouch gestures. I had it on tap clicking, but I can’t tap or press click now. I tried rebooting and letting it sleep (which in the past had fixed any random issues like this)...

on getting dressed
Take off the lace, love. Put on some plaid, button those buttons instead. Now look in the mirror. There she is, you found her! She was right there all along, I swear. But since it’s been so long, turn around and give her a hug. Tell her you love her, but only if you mean it. Find it within you. She needs it today.

Where am I? Where am I going? What am I doing? What do I want? What can I do? What should I do? Is this okay? Who am I? Who are you? What is this? How much? How long? Where are you? What does it mean? What’s the point?

Morning Memories
This may or may not become a series. Consider yourselves warned.
When I was in junior high, I lived in the band room. It was also the choir room, but there were several bands and only one choir, so everyone called it the band room. I started and ended each day there. My study halls were all there. My directors probably saw me more than my parents did, considering I was pretty permanently...

I really don’t mind sharing what I have with pretty much anyone I don’t hate. Seriously, what’s mine is yours until you give me a reason not to trust you with it anymore.

I have been in the library for an hour.
I have done absolutely nothing. Granted, I needed to be alone and this is probably the best place to be just that. But I have a paper to write tonight. It’s only a four-page draft, but it’s something I actually care about, so bullshitting it isn’t going to fly. It still shouldn’t take that long, but….
All I want to do right now is write a letter that has nothing to...
