Week of Unfucking, Day 4
This is the worst. The invisible corner of the whole apartment. The way we have our living room set up, the couch divides it into two separate spaces. The space we usually inhabit doesn’t get too cluttered because we constantly need to use it, but the area behind the couch… a no man’s land of discarded and forgotten possessions.
Most of those boxes aren’t even FULL,...

Week of Unfucking, Day 3
I’m so sorry, I haven’t been on to update!!
Day 3 was the dining room. I use that term loosely, since it hasn’t been used to “dine” in any formal sense for many months, and it’s basically been entirely converted to a nerd-room. This is where the computers go when we get together and play games, this is where the tabletop roleplaying sessions are held, where the...

Week of Unfucking, Day 2
Day 2 of my venture was the foyer. The big project here (the room is pretty empty to begin with, and minor clutter just needed to be moved out) was the shelving unit that’s been leaning on the wall in pieces for months:
So ugly! Now, this is not your standard IKEA furniture here. Handmade by my grandfather, disassembled by my forgetful dad, there were no instructions to be had. And it had...

Week of Unfucking, Day 1
So I wanted to wait until after Christmas because of the pre-holiday madness, but this week is the Week of Unfucking. By the new year, I want my entire apartment to look like a place where people live, and not like a giant closet that people nest in. Things don’t have homes, invisible corners abound, and it’s all quite gross. So I’m tackling one or two rooms a day, and Tumblr...

If you do not include a way for me to preview what my save the date/invitation/etc. will look like with my information and every possible picture I could include, I will not even remotely consider buying from you.
No I will not “request a proof,” I am a child of the Internet and if you don’t have some sort of design and customize feature on your website I will move the...

Discussing rating systems:
”You can’t go wrong with bar charts… just saying. maybe some nice shading, a sweet 3d effect on there. some awesome 1/2 naked chick in the back ground…”

Whiskey. I get to drink whiskey and I don’t give a shit if it ‘looks awesome’ or ‘is so tough’ because it’s not, it’s just delicious and I will drink too much of it and I will burp in your face and then order a taco. Screw you, that’s what I do.
I don’t have to wear heels, but I can if I want to. Heels make me look taller. If I feel like tricking people into thinking I look taller...
