Of all of the things in this world that I love the most (compliments and sex being near the top of the list, not necessarily in that order), I must say that dried fruit makes it pretty far up. It’s sweet, it’s delicious, and, um, I mean, it’s fruit.
The less I want to lose weight, the healthier I generally eat. Diets are for suckers and I’ve never been on one and I never will be on one. Let’s all eat in moderation and enjoy our food without the guilt of the gluttonous.
All hail dried fruit, for it is your master and my dessert.

Stop asking me when I’m getting married.
Seriously, I am so sick of it.
I understand that he and I have been together for a long time. I understand that you would like to attend a wedding. What I don’t understand is how our lifetime commitment has anything to do with you.
Look, we love each other. But moving in together was almost entirely a financial decision. It was not a roadtest for marriage. And yes, we’ve been very happy living together–so why mess with success?
Look, if it happens, we’ll let you know. Until then, shush yo mouth.

Things I Have Learned This Year
(1) Negative Energy Is Retarded
What’s the fricking point? It only comes back to bite you in the tush. Better solution: be good to other people. Treat everyone well. Give strangers the benefit of the doubt. Spread positive energy like a fucking wildfire.
(2) People Are Disappointing
I do, I do believe in being kind to others whole-heartedly. But I also believe that, the better you know someone, the more likely they are to disappoint you. Save your close friendships for those who deserve it. Be nice to everyone else, but don’t let them in.
(3) Hard Work Is Rewarded
My whole life I have been working towards one basic goal: to be a success in my field, the one thing I am honestly completely interested in. And so far, the going has been pretty freaking good.
(4) Love Those You Love With All Your Heart
Half-ass love and you’re really losing out. Seriously.
(5) Never, Ever, Ever Be A Phony
Because I fucking hate phonies. Bite me, bitches.

Your lifestyle is your lifestyle. I really don’t give a shit what you do with yourself, and I would hope you would extend the same courtesy to me.
But I just don’t understand polyamory. Well, no, that’s inaccurate. I actually totally understand polyamory. What I don’t understand is the way it’s practiced by the people I know who claim to practice it. It’s like communism: brilliant and perfect, but totally not taking into account the basic tenets of human nature.
I am in a serious relationship. It’s been a bunch of years and we live together. And we love each other.
Why would I want to be with another man when I have him? And, more pointedly, how could I stand the thought of him being with another woman? (Or man, or whatever. Gender politics is not the issue here.)
I applaud those secure enough to share their lovers, but I honestly can’t understand it. Why bother to remain in a committed relationship then? Why not just date around? To me, there are basically two reasons: (1) to show how different and interesting and daring you are (when usually, in my experience, the opposite is true), or (2) to hang on desperately to someone who doesn’t fulfill you just in case you can never find anyone else, for security purposes.
Am I wrong? Love me, hate me, I don’t care. Just explain to me. For true.
