sometimes supporting my local music scene is like when i was forced to go to church as a child. i hate it so much. it gives me social anxiety. but then again so does everything. i vaccuumed every single thing in my house today: floor, bed, couches, everything. and there was so much toby hair in the vaccuum bag that i'm thinking of making a...

the sweetest kittens have the sharpest claws, but they're usually drunk and dancing. where perfect madchens mingle with mullets and trucker hats, all overcompensating for a low self esteem or the fear of not being accepted. and there, in that wood paneled stinkhole with strobing lights and thumping bass, there is the shortest, cutest thing this side of philly. i'm not a beer snob, but...
