Mom: GO TO YOUR ROOM
Brother: that’s not fair
Mom: DO AS I SAY.
Brother: You never send Lizzie to her room when she’s in trouble!!
Mom: Lizzie never leaves her room. If she were in trouble I’d make her sit in the living room or go outside or talk to human beings.
Me: I CAN HEAR YOU.

yeaaaaah even at 27 I can identify with that. Room? YAY! People? *crying*

How do I Tumblr?! LOL. I’m sitting outside the U of M dance building atm, waiting for Heather to get out of class. A terribly hot day for dance, if you ask me. But I get to sit in the air-conditioned car, so that’s a bonus. I’m not sure if I’m supposed to just use this to post hundreds of pictures of people I find awesome or what. Pretty much every other tumblr I have ever played witness to seems to be exclusively for fan-girling. Not that that’s bad, I fangasim all the time, so I’m not knocking it. Like I said though, I intend to use this for working on my writing again. I’ve gotten out of practice and it’s like a muscle you need to work every day. I haven’t been working it. 

Life. Right now I’m feeling better than I have in a long time. I’m wearing a shirt without sleeves. A tank-top. I’ve never felt comfortable having fat arms, but today I feel… confident. It’s because of my girlfriend. She’s changed so many things in my life. In the best way. I feel… purposeful. And not hideous. Ha. It’s nice, feeling confident. I mean, no one is 100% confident all the time, but I’m experiencing bursts of it more and more frequently. 

So life has changed from years ago, when I used to moan and whine all over my blogs. I think that’s why I’m giving tumblr a go. My old journals reek of teen-age angst, and I think the best way to shed those dusty old feelings is by starting on a new blogging site, the virtual clean slate if you will. 

So, if for some reason I get random people who don’t know me following this thing, here is the skinny:

I’m 24, femaleish, I live in Michigan, though my soul aches for a home in the UK. I’m bisexual, currently (and I hope permanently) in a long term relationship with a girl who (I’m pretty sure) the sun rises and falls upon. I didn’t used to watch much tele, a little Colbert Report here, Boondocks and Scrubs there, with the occasional dash of shows like Dead Like Me, Pushing Daisies, etc. I’ve always been much bigger on reading. Stephen King, Chuck Palahniuk, Ray Bradbury, Hunter S. Thompson, Mark Z. Danielewski and so on. Slowly but surely however, British television has invaded my life. It started with The Mighty Boosh and then exploded in a world of IT Crowd, until I find myself sitting through hours of Top Gear on BBC America, simply because it’s BBC America. I smoke, but don’t drink. I like to think I have a decent sense of humor. I write slam poetry (and if you have shit to say about it, I don’t need to hear it. Expression is expression and no one has any right to complain about how I express myself.) I love music, it IS in fact life. Grateful Dead, Simon and Garfunkel, Pink Floyd, The Format, Kate Bush, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Decemberists… the list is about six hundred bands long. My girlfriend is a vocal major for U of M, and sounds like  Roberta Flack. Which is impressive for a white girl. This summary is mostly for future me to read back on and either smile with nostalgia or shake my head at the idiocy. (I’m pretty sure it’ll be the former.)  

I love the show Sherlock right now, I think it drives H a little crazy, I mean, she loves the show too, a lot, but I’m on a kick, it’s pretty much all I talk about all the time right now. I can’t help it. Benedict Cumberbatch is the best name I’ve ever heard. What a cutie. I love Martin Freeman too. Ugh. 

Right. So I guess that’s me tumblr. Me right now anyway, it’s a constantly changing thing, like with everyone. I’ll probably add a picture to this bitch now. 

SEXUAL TENSION.

Welcome to tumblr hon! <3, Branni

Watching Pokemon with my five year old niece. Team Rocket starts doing their thing and she says “geeze, do they EVER stop talking?!”

Oh. My. GOD. I want to go home I am so sick of drama. When are we going where, why can’t we stay until blank, why don’t you let me arrange your life for you, you should move to Mobile, are you going to have roommates forever? Don’t you want your own place? What about when you start having kids? Why move to that town? (because JOBS? Hello?)

Grumpy Nani is grumpy.

Ugh. Slept a lot yesterday so I wrote up at five. Dark, quiet, boring five a.m.
