Welcome back, OD

April 6, 2018
I got a notification on my phone the other day. It was an email. I quickly looked at the sender and saw that it was OpenDiary. What's this? I open it and discover that, lo and behold, OpenDiary -- a site I loved, a site on which I spent many years of my life, a site…

    Yesterday was a good day. I had a $30 gift card to Wet Seal, a $25 gift card to Barnes & Noble and about $50 cash, all leftover from Christmas that I needed to spend, so my mom, grandma, boyfriend and I all embarked on a shopping trip to St. Cloud, a town about an…

  • Punk’s not dead, it’s just sleeping
    January 8, 2014
    I'm in a good mood today. I'm listening to a lot of frenetic, energized, upbeat music like Ramones and Sparks' album Kimono My House ("This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us" is a definite favorite). I'm not sure if my mood if affecting the music I listen to or if it's the other...

    Minnesota has been really cold lately. It's -7° with a windchill of -18. We are actually in a "windchill advisory" right now and almost every school in the area is closed. Yesterday was even worse. I don't mind, though. I've never been one of those people who constantly whines about...

  • A new year, a new me? (Smells like BS.)
    January 5, 2014
    It's been a long time since I've written. I just got done reading my previous entries and, man, are some of them dumb! I come off as some kind of losery, floozy drunk! It's like all I could ever write about was my anxiety problems and my drinking stories, which hardly even count as stor...

  • You can call me Houdini.
    June 10, 2013
    I pulled my famous disappearing act again! Let me back up and explain. I have intense anxiety and panic disorder (which anyone who's read any of my entries would already know) and it affects my everyday living exponentially. Every time I get a new job (or start anything new for that matter), ther...

  • The Real Entry
    May 17, 2013
    I think the reason I haven't been writing lately is because I am having trouble writing creatively. My brain has sort of been feeling like mush lately and it has become increasingly difficult to think of something witty or wry. Sometimes I think I try too hard to be funny or something when it rea...

  • The fake entry before the real entry
    May 9, 2013
    Oh my god, guys. It's been an obscenely long time since I last posted. I'm in the mood to blog again but I'm not in the right mindset to do so at this exact moment so here's a buffering entry to get you ready (I don't know who exactly I'm talking to as my only…

  • The Super Bowl can kiss it.
    February 2, 2013
    Friday night, I went over to a friend's house and we ended up partying (and, of course, in the Midwest where there's nothing to do, "partying" means "binge drinking and gettin' weird"). I bought two six-packs of hard cider and one pack of cigarettes, drank and smoked it all. I...

  • Twelve in 12: January (part 2)
    January 28, 2013
    Disclaimer: I know that the "Twelve in 12" challenge only requires you to read one book per month but I finished my book with time to spare, so I thought I'd see if I could read another book before the month was up. Turns out I could, so I decided to do a "Part 2"…
