as much as i hate typing this:

When it comes to putting down on paper the noise a cat makes, only the Spanish have it correct. Maullar. And trust me, you can use that to summon a cat when you're lonely, regardless of what language you or the cat grew up speaking.

realizing that your ultimate fantasy of a man was Cassidy from Preacher: Horrible realizing that some of the ostensibly straight boys you were fucking thought the exact same thing: Oops. Hindsight. 20/20

I'm so done with variations of the phrase "put on your big kid pants" [ie, "put on your big girl panties" "man up" etc] Screw that. Put on the thing that makes you happiest to do the big obnoxious adult task. Wear the most cheerful thing your odious job will allow. Decorate the face mask before you clean out the ducts.Take your notes on Lisa Frank stationary. Cover your cubicle in action figures. Hold your stuffed animal during the teleconference just out of sight. Find Hello Kitty scrubs. Wear Iron Man underoos to the damned job interview. Screw your hopeless, grim dark ideas of adult hood with a giant drill and BE FUCKING HAPPY.

I love Las Vegas. I especially love the Neon Sign Boneyard in the old La Concha building. I could live there.

A picture my brother took on the patio of my townhouse in 1998. I turn 42 today and my face and hair have not changed. I don't have the cross bow or the townhouse anymore so I can't retake the exact same pic to prove it.
