totally forgot.
I just remembered that in 8th grade my mom asked if I was gay and told me it was totally fine if I was after I told her I wanted to stay home instead of go shopping because “the episode of degrassi where Marco comes out is on!”

My name is thick and short, just enough to stand without bite. one-syllable. I am not the jessicacaitlynamandashley of my classmates. One syllable slick like the fish we caught. I just liked the sound – no water in Arizona, when we moved and I heard that running water I fell in love. If you were a boy I would have named you Moss. My dad would have named me Dylan after Bob. But I was not a boy – I...

1. Be more awesome.
I mean this seriously, as I am not very awesome at all and I feel like maybe if I just tried a little bit I could be sort of awesome.
2. Read some books.
I fucking love to read. Except I think I forgot that it was a thing that I could do, because I haven’t read much this last semester. And by “haven’t read much” I mean that I only read one book a...

There is this thing where I like to pretend I am a writer.
Except that I don’t do it ever. I have like fifty journals in a box in my room but those are mostly about ~feeling infinite~ and crying and whatever else I did in junior high in high school and lots of in-depth analysis of this boy who GOT me.

I have to emcee a really cool event and I am nervous. It is the final reading of work from students who participated in our community writing workshops. Unfortunately and obviously, my juvie kids can’t be there, so my partner and I will be reading their work for them.
I can’t believe the semester is almost over. I can’t believe I will be back in California in less than two...

free trade coffee
me: I like a boy I have no chance with.
BGFF: Do to! You're totally hot stuff. You just gotta go up to him and be all like hey boy hey, You want this but you ain't gonna get none. Then ask that slobering mess to hang out with you. Maybe get come free trade coffee or maybe garden organically together.
