naked photos taken without a flash.
throwing an anchor on dry land.
spinning your wheels while never intending to go anywhere.
wishing for the spring sun in mid-town manhattan.
justification without accusation.
pain with pleasure.
unorchestrated movements rehearsed over and over.
meeting your mother on an unexpected saturday afternoon.
drinking without apology.
it all really is about you, jolene.
we were listening to your favorite track as we crossed over the bridge on highway 1. we had never been this way before and excitement crept up as we took the road less traveled.
i clutched your hand as we ventured further and secretly wished that you would turn back before the world swallowed us whole.
“fuck, dont go any further. we havent been this far before and i dont think we can survive.”
these days i cross that same point over and over.
it lacks the same excitement and sexiness as it did the night we sang along to your beat up car stereo.
so all the cool kids are publishing their ‘lists’ because that’s what cool kids do. i’m doing the whole copy/paste thing from my ‘about me‘ section because nobody bothers to read it anyway–and because i’m inherently lazy.
oh and if you want to read some of the other lists that are better than than this feel free to read mandy, erin or jessica.

13.) this is where my story begins…

so i did something today that i’ve wanted to do for a long time and it seemed successful and timely, but even if it hadn’t been it wouldn’t have mattered because what i always feared might be impossible wasnt because of 11/28.
with that in mind, tonight’s song is ‘hallelujah‘ by jeff buckley.

she shook her head and questioned…why?
she was filled with anger from too much disease.
he stood there as she was leaving and worried that if he looked away she’d be gone.
“…one drink to remember and one to forget.”
she was the drink he needed and as the moon cursed him he slouched in discontempt.
fucking reality. fucking weight of life. when persistence is your drug you can’t find a better fix.
the universe was giving them the grace for one more resolution, one more drink.
“…one more drink and then my grace is gone.”
one day she was invisible, but she would rather you believe she was invincible. untouchable. unreachable. too far from love’s arms.
he wasnt just searching for the answer, he was searching for her answer and the difference between the two was immense…as you’ll soon see.
the story of the ages rages on dear reader, and if this is the only way he can reach her then he simply closes his eyes and wrap himself in its warmth.
welcome back to it….
sometimes i completely forget how to blog. i sit down at the computer, take a deep breath, whisper a little prayer and then….nothing. it’s not necessarily writer’s block as much as it is a complete loss of any concept of what a blog post is supposed to be like.
when this happens i usually just pull something out of the ‘onelonelysuccess-collection’ and just post it. this invariably leads to readers scratching their heads and wondering what the hell is wrong with me.
so tonight erin is throwing the party of the year. this is exciting on many levels but especially because a large percentage of the bloggers i read on a daily basis will be there…in one room! we usually don’t like to congregate in one place at the same time because if something tragic were to happen then no one would be left to run the internets.
tonight we’re throwing caution to the wind. if you wake up in the morning and the internet is still working then you know all went well.

so this is the sad song.
you know the one where i cry over you? the one where i look into the mirror and fall apart. the one where you walk away in a parallel direction.
when you walked away without a goodbye you gave yourself the room to survive.
we both have so many that need our love and i wish you the best with yours.
this life is too short for one lonely success.
here’s what happens when you dress a little dog up on halloween.

Erin: so mandy and i are determined that you and mikael are going to be best friends.
Jeff: oh really?
Erin: that’s all. you have to like my boyfriend because mandy and are going to fall madly in love.
Jeff: i have no reservations about you and mandy falling in love
Erin: i bet
Jeff: haha i’m a dude

so this morning i was going about my normal shower routine when i
decided to get all crazy and use conditioner in my hair. i have no
idea why i did this and now all day i’ve been wondering who smells
like pantene pro v.
then i remember.
speaking of hygiene, have you ever gotten toothpaste in your eye?
well this morning i did and let me tell you, it’s not the party you
think it might be. not highly recommended, but if you can guess how i
physically got toothpaste from the tube to my eyeball then you win a
prize.
Erin: so you guys are coming on saturday, eh?
Jeff: hell yes we are
Erin: how stoked are you?
Jeff: dude ridiculously stoked. i’m also excited that i got to use the word stoked today
Erin: stoked is radical
Jeff: radical, yes, but is it….badical?
Erin: hmm… pondering
Jeff: wait…is badical a word or did me and my friends just make it up back in the 4th grade?
Erin: must have, but i will soon be incorporating it into my regular lexicon
Jeff: badical

so now that i’ve figured out the secret to posting youtube videos without completely screwing up my blog, i’m going to show off by posting one of my favorite bill maher clips….just because i can…no other reason.

so i took my sexy zombie picture and made it my AIM buddy icon. it looks like this.
yesterday when i was chatting with hanre she said that she liked my new icon and i assumed she was referring to its aforementioned sexiness. but then she goes, “…i like it and all but why are you sneezing?”
apparently what i think looks dead sexy appears to look like a sneeze to others.
this has been a problem my entire life.

so if you go to school with me and you’re free at 3pm then you should come listen to my lecture on ‘current adrenergic treatments in prostate cancer‘ over in risely hall.
if you and i arent classmates or you have never heard of risely hall, then you’re just going to have to kick yourself all day long for missing out.
try not to be too hard on yourself.
UPDATE: ok so no one from the internet came and listened to my talk. i will assume this was only a matter of semantics and not indicative of the internets interest in my research. now i’m going to let my brain relax so that i quit using words like “semantics” and “indicative”.
