I Know, I Know, I Know
2007
I’m not totally clear on how to redeem myself from slumping down on the floor in the most visible section of the office and crying about wanting to revise forms.
All I know is that I don’t do well with:
- sleep-deprivation
- feeling incompetent
- compliments
- my emotions
- having to continue to speak when it’s completely clear no one wants to listen
- everything right now
- restraining myself from expressing my desire to punch people
- falling asleep when I’m sooooo tired

I am currently conducting very important research for my summer project: Misandry Through the Arts.
Any suggestions?
Phrases I have uttered today without any sense of irony or self-awareness:
“I’ll go rally the troops”
“thwarted desire”
The first was in the Admissions Office, the second in the Dean’s Office.
The other day I said “bright and bushy-tailed.”
I just queued up 54 posts for my Making and Unmaking Selves tumblr. I have 98 saved drafts that need to be tagged and ordered in some way. I don’t know if you knew this, but I clearly put in way more thought than I should.
The rest of my life may not always work out but at least I can stay on top of one corner of the internet.
But I do need more submissions and/or suggestions. Sometimes a girl gets lonely sitting in the library and googling “makeover scene” and “music video.”
Ideas?
Getting fucked over by the bourgeoisie doesn’t mean you’ve lost your virginity.
