Following:
Oh My God!Will someone please come lay next to me and promise not to let go? I’m lonely and in the mood to be lied too.
Remember the pain.
Remember the bruises and the anger.
Remember the soul
Silently pleading and overexposed.
Remember bad times.
Remember the bad times.
Swiss cheese,
that’s what the holes in my brain
have been compared to.
But I like to say,
it’s more like a collage,
a cut and paste of the best
memories.
Because that’s what
makes the most sense.
Remember the tears,
the endless nights beneath covers
and muffled pillow screams.
Remember the obliviousness.
The ignorance of your
surroundings,
refusing to believe anything was
relevant to you.
Remember sadness.
Remember the sadness.
Remember the heaviness of a
room filled with us.
While we held hands,
all i could think of was the infinite
space between atoms
that would never
really touch.
My boyfriend just completed a 5K Spartan Marathon with all of these crazy obstacles and weight lifting challenges …he’s so much cooler than me <3
Was booking a trip for the kids today and i realized, I want to get married at the Brooklyn Botanical garden. Its not too expensive, kinda…please?
This morning I woke up at 4:20. Not from a nightmare or anything, just wide awake as if I always wake up at that time. I instantly thought of you. How you used to wake up around that time to get ready for work to be at the bus stop by about 5. I couldn’t go back to sleep. All I kept thinking about was how I’m lucky to have even awakened at all to see another day. I wonder if you felt that way around this time a year ago. Or maybe in your drug induced coma you weren’t aware of the passage of time, at least not how we mark it. Maybe by then you were pleading to not wake up, to make the pain go away. Or maybe by then you were already in another place.
Time is so strange. As you get older you realize that time flies and when you finally look up, a year has already passed. This year I’ve learned so many things. I’ve discovered a strength in myself that I didn’t know I had. Past the breaking point, I found a reserve in myself that contained peace and tranquility. I guess things have to break in order to start to rebuild. I fell in love again. But this time more intelligently. Leading with my heart of course, but not ignoring my mind. I have started to build a bridge to adulthood and happiness. I wish you were here to see me, but I know that you’ll always guide me wherever I go. I miss you. RIP Irene
The feeling of losing.
Of missing a piece of myself, of having to let you go
is still here.
It wont go away.
I miss you.
I miss something that I thought was real, something that I could hold on to, tangible and just.
Like an object with mass
without discussion of existence
that’s what this was.
But I forgot that lies,
once they leave the lips of the liar
are pretty tangible too,
depending on how much you .
believe them.

Realizing that despite all of the obstacles put in front of me, I’m still leading a fulfilling life.

Thanks Ms. Feraci for reminding me today that although things can seem bleak, there are always alternate roads to get to where we’re trying to go..
I have some lovely coworkers.
Today’s XKCD is something close to my heart.
Don’t be a dick, once upon a time you didn’t know what it was either.
I need to try to remember this more often, as opposed to my kneejerk incredulousness.
I will always ask questions, there is no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid answers.
I will never be ashamed to ask about something I do not know and if someone wishes to laugh at me for it then feel free, I’m the one who’s constantly asking and learning.
I’m guilty of being a know-it-all asshole :(
