You terrify me in the greatest way possible.
“Don’t settle for less than your dream. If you’re doing something that makes you miserable; something that doesn’t allow you to wake up excited every day, then stop. Do what makes you happy, even if you have to wait 20 years for your first big chance. I didn’t and now I wake up everyday wondering if I’m even worth the air I breathe. Have a dream. Follow it. Don’t get caught up in what’s expected of you, because it’s all bullshit. It’s not what’s “best for you”, it’s what’s best for everyone around you. The world is scared of people who are happy and passionate and certain. Those around you will never understand why you are so driven, despite the fact that they, themselves, are driven too, because nobody will ever understand your aspirations and desires like you do inside of your heart. Don’t talk yourself out of it, because otherwise you’ll be standing by and watching while somebody lives your dream. Just take every single opportunity and never let go.”

My hair smells like car exhaust fumes and winter and dust.
It’s 6:05am and I have nothing better to do but watch the game and eat wolfberries and sniff my hair like a special needs child. How am I going to be awake for tonight’s party if I will likely end up in bed at lunchtime? Why does my hair smell like an attic? Why is the score still nil all at 70 minutes?
So many questions, so little wolfberries left.
I can feel a relapse coming on. Smells like tap water.
The new Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin album Let It Sway is out August 17th. Oh baby.
