mapper of evil

so I have been thinking about going to des moines to see my friend derek and I was talkign to him and he was all surprised that I woudl be coming out:(11:42:00) Derek Brooks: just to hang out?(11:42:02) Work Aim: yea(11:42:06) Derek Brooks: cool(11:42:27)

my eyes are dripping tiredness

this sucks. i have decided

so last night after morgan left I felt pretty good. like. “ok this will be fine. I understand. it is all good. I look forward to being her friend.” today. I wake up. it is not easier. it is not fun. I really don’t want this to be happening. honestly. I am really sad. I don’t really want to goto work. I don’t really want to hang out. I look to checking my email in case she sent me one. I am afr…

accurate punctures

so I went and got accupuncture last night. I think I am done for a bit. I originally went to alleviate some back pain I had gained from wrestling - however the back pain is gone. so wheni arrived yesterday I realized that I really had know ailments for her to manipulate.
