a friend i hardly ever see asked me how i’ve been. i told him i’ve been good but april was a pretty boring month, which was nice because i’ve been crazy busy all year. he then asked if i got laid at all in april and i told him i did and he said it must not have been that good since it was a boring month. my response to that was getting laid does not a good month make. a typical month, yes. but exceptional? hardly.
then he commented that of course it was a boring month because i only got laid twice. now… i’m not sure what is normal for someone single. should I be out having sex every weekend? is it normal to just get laid (on average) once a month? or perhaps every other month?
i don’t want to sleep with strangers and i dont want a boyfriend. what’s a girl to do?!

If you do nothing else today, you must listen to the 11 Best Deep-Voiced Boys II Men Monologues, as compiled by some genius who deserves a huge high-five.
(thanks Claire!)
FINALLY the art of the deep-voiced monologue has been brought to light.
I AM NOT GOING TO EMBARRASS YOU OR NOTHING @CLOUDSINMYEYES BUT IDK THIS MIGHT BE RELEVANT TO YOUR EDUCATION.
Hahahaha. OOH, CALLED OUT. I don’t understand, do they have a sitcom or something? A barbershop quarter? Why the matching cardigans?
how do you know if someone is an alcoholic? i feel like most 20somethings and young 30somethings are alcoholics. it’s just completely acceptable these days. so… when you see a friend with a serious drinking problem what can you do? i can’t do some sort of intervention because that seems dramatic and i would be sitting there alone with him. but i can’t do nothing because he is heading down this horrible path and i love him and dont want to see him hurt himself!
the compromise i made after he totaled his car while drunk driving was that we could still be friends but i refuse to be around him when he’s drinking. this has gone on for almost a year now. we had the following text exchange the other day:
(note: this is at 6:48 am on a saturday)
alky: so i love u and your the best but, when u ask me ‘so your going to stop drinking after your bday’ u set me up for failure, cause i cant plan ahead that long. i know what i want today, today is what needs to matter, totday will always be here now, i can’t tell u tomorrow or the day after… however i can tell u today
me: FWD: ‘Ive decided after my party i am going to quit drinking and I know your probably gonna roll your eyes when u read this but my mind is made up’
me: that’s what YOU sent ME
alky: i wanted to quit then
alky: i just want to be happy, KT. I cant say I’ll stop when its anything further than today!
me: that’s fine just dont tell me you are going to stop then make me feel guilty when i believe you
alky: why not? i can ay that if i want :-D
alky: go away and come hug me at the same time please
alky: i cant believe u think Im an alcoholic like that
alky: truth be told, Im an alcoholic in ways u didnt even think of yet haha
alky: Thats a joke, good night PS Im at home, never went out
alky: I miss u at my party, if im being honest, I almost feel less a man this year than last. Im sure Ill just drink that away though
what am i supposed to do with this? am i making things worse for him by continuing to be in his life? does he have borderline personality disorder? and if so, what can i do to help him? so frustrating!!
I’m powerless against this event… no matter how obscure the photo is, I’ve gotta post it.
so five or so years ago i had just started making out with john occasionally and we were at a party of a mutual friend shotgunning beers. then the whole group decided to stumble over to the bars around the corner… always a good idea.
one of our mutual friends HATED the idea of us hooking up so we tried to refrain but couldnt help it after the shotgunned beers and ran ahead of everyone to hide in an alley to make out. we decided to take a short cut through the alley to get to the bar, but got to a fence blocking our path.
january = cold so backtracking just seemed out of the question. clearly the only solution was to climb the fence. i get ready to start over as my phone rings and i answer as john grabs my foot and hoists me (completely unprepared) over the fence. i landed on my head and maybe bounced 3 times (there were three bumps).
obviously I looked horrible (covered in blood) so john starts wiping snow on my face to get rid of the blood. clearly a good solution. we stumble to the bar where the bouncer proceeds to ask me if i got in a fight. umm… awkward.
moral of the story: five years later i’m still suffering from this. i think i hurt my neck pretty badly and now i have pinching pain all through my neck and left shoulder. some days it’s fine but the last few days it’s like constant pain.
and i still hook up with this guy. who does that?
why is art so expensive?
i slept with a coworker, tristin, this weekend. is this ok behavior? It’s not the first coworker i slept with. i have been sleeping with my coworker brad for years but haven’t in months. i’m friends with both tristin and brad and they are friends w/each other but i dont think they know about each other.
i don’t know how to act with these things… i always act the same. crazy and fun when i’m drunk and when we wake up in the morning i act a bit standoffish and in total friend mode. not sure if that’s smart… but i feel like discussing would be a bad idea. make things more awkward and too formal.
i dont want to date either boy seriously but want to continue sleeping with them. is that so wrong?
my friend john and i have been friends for ages. we started fooling around back in 2002 or so, and have continued this practice ever since. maybe once or twice a year and nothing too serious. just randomly when we’re out and drunk and the mood strikes.
a couple years ago he started doing this weird thing where he’d call me up and say he was in the neighborhood and ask if i wanted to come outside, meet him in his car, and give him a bj. i actually did this a few times.
w o w. not the best idea in retrospect. but as “they” say… hindsight is 20/20. assholes.
i discussed how inappropriate that was and he agreed and we continued our normal friendship/random make out sessions for the next couple years. then a couple months ago i gave him a bj in an alley. not my classiest or proudest moment, but kind of fun and one of those things you can cross off your life checklist if it happens to include such an encounter.
after said encounter, however, we haven’t really talked much. i can’t tell if he’s avoiding me specifically or if he’s just busy. so finally last night i’m at a mutual friend’s house having drinks and john shows up! so i’m excited to see him and catch up because we’re friends, right? apparently not. he has a beer and leaves with another girl. i might mention that alley bj night he also slept with said other girl.
so i’m annoyed because (a) bj night he left w/someone else. that’s just slutty (says the girl who went down on him in an alley) (b) we haven’t talked in ages… dozens on unresponded to texts, emails, gchats etc etc (c) the chance we have to catch up he spends flirting with another girl and leaves promptly with her. now this girl is pretty awesome and if i were him i’d def hit on her. but serioulsy? are we even friends any more at this point? why would i try to maintain a friendship or a friends w/benefits situation with someone who blatantly doesn’t give a shit about maintaining any sort of friendship with me? and clearly has no respect for me?
how bizarre.
