What a lovely
day.
first off, i made mushroom and ham quiche and drank a pile of coffee. and then spent the day walking on the beach, watching the shorebirds, enjoying the sunshine and the smell of the ocean. and then some reading on the beach and staring at the waves - spotted a sea otter! and dolphins! - until the sun went down in a glorious sunset.
a delicious dinner of shrimp and scallops and artichoke hearts and white wine sauce over noodles. and now i’m eating coffee ice cream while orson welles is being a nazi criminal of some sort who likes to fix clocks.
and the entire day i wore leggings and didn’t put on actual pants even once.
hope you all are merry and happy and bright.
It's funny how

15 Things You
Ordering a real dessert
Someone else’s bad day
Ditching a bad lover
Having a crazy family
Buying into your horoscope
Really wanting a boyfriend
Being a self-promoter
Investing in your looks
Having a high “number”
Changing your mind
Being inexperienced
Hoping your children will be cuter than your friends’
Sticking to a budget
Only doing things online that you’d do in real life
Being happy
THE ONLY time I apologize is when I hurt someone (physically or emotionally) and I am genuinely at fault. Women need to stop apologizing for every fucking thing, like for occupying space and for yielding to their desires, for example. FUCK IT. Eat that cake, kiss that boy/girl first, laugh REALLY loud, take up space and enjoy it. Oh, and don’t regret anything.

How do so
I know, indoctrination. I used to think that there was nothing in the world worse than being a “slut” or “whore,” too. Granted I was like 16, and it does kind of amaze me that more people don’t grow out of this, but I get it. When you’re told your entire life that a woman’s entire worth rests on not being a “slut” or a “whore,” it can be hard to think otherwise. But when you spell it out for what it is — that accusing someone of liking sex and (omg!) having sex acts as the ultimate insult — it just starts to look well and truly bizarre.
How I’d love to live in a world where sex was not seen as such a disgusting and degrading thing. A world in which such an insult doesn’t even begin to make sense. Because it sure as hell doesn’t make sense to me.
