itsjanna said: Yay summer vacation! I still have a couple of weeks left. How was your first year?

It was really great, and I am really, really glad it’s over. I produced a lot, cried a lot, was happy a lot, learned a lot, and am completely exhausted. I think it’ll probably take me the entire summer to recover. How was yours?

At a bar with my dad and stepmom, watching middle aged people dancing to dads covering classic rock. Draw your own conclusions. (Like: I love my family.)

Had this really awful dream last night involving an ex-boyfriend who spent what felt like hours trying to guilt me into sex for being so shitty to him and it has made my entire day weird because I can’t shake the bad feeling.

Also, on a completely unrelated note, don’t ever talk to me about how much getting your tattoo hurt, no one cares.

Also also, my niece is the best and most perfect thing ever.

This is a real thing that just happened. Mom on top, stepmom on the bottom. Love them both, but it will never stop being hilarious to me what complete opposites they are.

“Between the ages of twenty and forty we are engaged in the process of discovering who we are, which involves learning the difference between accidental limitations which it is our duty to outgrow and the necessary limitations of our nature beyond which we cannot trespass with impunity.”

villa-kulla:

Reporter: I have a question to Robert and to Scarlett. Firstly to Robert, throughout Iron Man 1 and 2, Tony Stark started off as a very egotistical character but learns how to fight as a team. And so how did you approach this role, bearing in mind that kind of maturity as a human being when it comes to the Tony Stark character, and did you learn anything throughout the three movies that you made?

And to Scarlett, to get into shape for Black Widow did you have anything special to do in terms of the diet, like did you have to eat any specific food, or that sort of thing?

Scarlett: How come you get the really interesting existential question, and I get the like, “rabbit food” question?

The respect given to you if you’re a man in the entertainment business, and the respect given to you if you’re a woman in the entertainment business: all perfectly summed up in one idiotically thought out line of questioning.

you should tell me what other thrift stores you would go to!

I went to this one up north on Clark. I want to say it was at Irving Park or thereabouts? I can’t remember the name of it but it was real good. Sorry, that is really unhelpful. Otherwise I pretty much just went to Unique. Oh, and there is this vintage place in Wicker Park (which I know you hate and which I am not too crazy about myself) called US #1 and it is overpriced but they have an incredible boot selection, if you are into boots. The guy who works there is really crotchety but if his beautiful dog likes you then he will give you a discount. It is kind of stressful and weird, but the boots I got there are my favorite shoes I have ever bought. I still wear them all the time four years later.

Here I am, post-swim, eating the first of probably several Pink Lady apples. It’s like as soon as summer happens I remember that fruit exists and then it is the only thing I want to eat. HOWEVER, I have a fried chicken date with my lady friend tonight, and I am pretty excited about that.

Also, I was outside for something like two and a half hours and lost THREE POUNDS of water weight from sweating. (Let’s just ignore what that says about my unhealthy obsession with weighing myself.)

Here’s something I wrote that is out in the world. On a little tiny broadside so you can carry it in your wallet or front shirt pocket or pants (front or back pocket) or cool dress with pockets.

Look at this beautiful thing my friend did!
