"I'm somewhat the worse for - cake."
For me, one of the strangest things about living alone is deciding how to feel about it. For some reason, I woke up conflicted today. It happens sometimes when I’m trying to take stock of my feelings early in the day before anything has happened. Some days I wake up and I feel very content alone in my bed with my cat. Some days I start making tea and breakfast and think about how much I...

Possible Conspiracies Involving Taxi Cabs
What is this thing with Jersey Shore and cabs? Why can’t MTV just get a bus or like, a large SUV, and just drive them to the club? Why don’t I get this?

– Charles Dickens, Bleak House
Otherwise known as: my favorite passage from my favorite Charles Dickens novel. I swear that though I may be an adult, sometimes I still feel like Harold Skimpole: “Go your several ways in peace!…only—let [me] live!” Let me do what I want in peace.

Hello, Internet!
I’ve been off tumblr since the onslaught of final exams, holiday travel, and turning in a brief for my moot court competition, but I’m definitely back to a somewhat regular Internet schedule, and I’d like to say hello.
So what’s new?

so I am going to stay on my high horse when it comes to the subject of rape fantasy.
…less likely to get raped up here!

Medical Marijuana Laws Shown to Reduce Traffic... →
This is the second article I’ve read on this topic in two days. The other one said alcohol is about 10 times more dangerous to drivers. Even though test subjects smoking marijuana didn’t perform as well on driving-related tests, they did better at the actual driving. Marijuana smokers perceived themselves as impaired at very low levels of intoxication (before displaying signs of...

– Sarah Kane, Crave
The other day, I was clicking through g-chat and noticed a very old status that I didn’t remember. (“it’s always there it’s always been there and you cannot deny the life you feel”) Of course, it turned out to be Sarah Kane. I worshipped Sarah Kane...

Cat in the Kitchen Sink
Me: What are you doing?!? Where do you think you are right now!?! I think she forgets that we have rules.
A: Nope. She's a linestepper. She's a habitual seeker of boundaries. I know. My wife is the same way.

Pumpkin Pie with Pecan-Caramel Topping - Good... →
I just finished making this pie, and I had to drag myself out of the kitchen in order to stop eating the buttery caramel with toasted pecans that is currently dripping down the edges. I always make my pumpkin pies with pecans in the crust, and this is probably my favorite.
