I have bad taste in men. I try to fall in love with those who only want sex. I want sex from those who want to fall in love. And worst of all, I become a million more times attracted to those who I can’t even dream of having.

1. Falling in love. 2. Laughing so hard your face hurts. 3. A hot shower. 4. No lines at the supermarket. 5. A special glance. 6. Getting mail. 7. Taking a drive on a pretty road. 8. Hearing your favorite song on the radio. 9. Lying in bed listening to the rain outside. 10. Hot towels fresh out of the dryer. 11. Chocolate milkshake (vanilla or strawberry). 12. A...

so now we’re here,
which is where i want to be with you.
Make up your mind….in or out??
Also, there was another post on this page earlier that was a reblog but it was deleted before I got the chance to read it or even notice where it was from originally. Any hints where I could find it?

Best. Proposal. Ever. One of my fave movie quotes of all time. Maybe it’s a little cliche at the close but there’s nothing Hallmark about it. It’s realistic, not idealistic. It’s not all hearts and flowers and “We’re perfect...
I had a dream about Tumblr last night...
seagull:
…and you and you and you were there!
I hopped in my car for the short drive (lol) to NYC from Austin, arriving at an apartment filled with Tumblr users about an hour and a half later. A group of us stood around in the kitchen using our cell phones to post to Twitter about my exciting arrival in the city because we are that awesome.
There were many Tumblrees in the dream, but I only...

Gay Bars are Better
I went out to a gay bar this weekend (not the first time I’d been) and was reminded of how much better, how much more fun they are. Better music, better dancing, hotter men (even if they’re not available to you). Any girl who’s all, “Fuck guys, I just wanna dance” would go to a gay bar if she really meant it. The guys might dance with you for a bit, but ultimately...

This pretty much describes me down to the last little nose crinkle. Now I guess I just need someone who loves those things about me.
i hate being reblogged into a private group
kathlellen:
it’s like when you know someone’s talking about you, and you have no way of knowing what they said, but you’re pretty sure it’s not good
I have a private group where I reblog stuff I like or want to save for future reference but don’t necessarily want everyone else reading on my blog, posts that link to resources I want to keep on hand, quotes that perfectly describe the way I...

sometimes, sometimes i just want to run to you.

Hell yeah. I’ve always felt a bit flattered if people are paying enough attention to me to talk shit about me, spread rumors, or otherwise attempt to make my life miserable so they feel better about themselves. If I make you feel that threatened or...
Why I Love Tumblr....
Because after a weekend away, there are 50+ pages on my Dashboard to look at (I’m picky about how many people I follow).
Because everyone posts such awesome stuff that even after numerous detours to check out more things in depth, it still feels like looking at 50+ pages took no time at all. It makes me wish thre was even more!
Because it’s the perfect way to spend a few hours of the...

Timing

Doesn’t it just feel like nothing ever lines up? Hellooooo frustration. It can’t just be easy, can it? No.
The crazy part is weeks/months/years down the line when you realize everything worked out the way it was supposed to…
Still, those uncomfortable moments where time F’s with your head can be pretty unnerving. You start to think MY GOD it will never come together. ...

My Google skills obvi SUCK. I’m trying to find some info about a wine we served in one the restaurants where I worked a year ago. Beach Bum Chardonnay. It might be local to Delaware? I googled and nothing happened.

Back in the day I cast a show about cowboys for CMT. Cowboys, rodeo or otherwise (yes there are different types), are largely inaccessible people. Either they’re out with the cows all day or they’re on the road 180 days a year competing. I was able to go through the the...

“Let’s face it, the worst things that happen are always the best things that happen. If you look back at your life and say, Well, what did you learn? What happened that changed your life, that made you strong, that made you grow? It’s always things you perceived as bad.”

lovepuppy:
I always get really weird when approaching upper tiers in the levels of commitment- in friendships and relationships. Just like pretty much everyone on the planet, I’ve been really hurt before. Hurt by people who said “open up Jessica, I’ll never hurt you!” and so, being the trusting soul that I am, I did open up. And I got hurt.
There’s just this delicate line that goes from “whoa...
