Lost my virginity at a Christmas Party. I dressed up as sexy santa and I got there and this guy I'd never met and still don't even know the name of was dressed up also like sexy santa. Well anyways, I woke up naked next to him on the floor of an upstairs bedroom the next morning. I don't remember much but I think I called him "daddy nicholas" the whole night(in reference to St. Nick I think??). Yeah. Not my proudest moment.

life is full of less-than-proud moments, and at the very least it’s an interesting story.

Im thinking of moving out but I haven't told my flatmates cuz I dont know how they'll react. I feel like we just dont vibe and it'll be easier for all of us if I left.

it happens. your home is supposed to be your safe place, and if you feel like you guys aren’t compatible it’s probably the right thing to do to figure something else out. just make sure you have other living prospects before you bring it up to them! good luck

I’ve never participated in Inktober. But this year, I felt I had to close out the month with this gouache-on-black-paper drawing of Anne Boleyn, “with ‘er ‘ead tucked underneath ‘er arm,” as the old Music Hall song goes. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eX-K_CHd0c)
