For those of you who were rapturously following my Scooby Doo fitness challenge: I have received a medal for bumbling around in several swamps. All hail my scooby snacks.

On a scale of 1 to Freud, how weird would it be if I send links to a bunch of Anais Nin erotica and Leonora Carrington "madness" books to my Dad because he asked for Christmas ideas?

Me before inviting any man into my home for any reason: “I know where all the sharpest knives are. There are also a lot of stairs in here and you’d never be able to see them in the dark until it’s too late.”

On his first day in prison, Russell Brand should walk up to the biggest, meanest-looking inmate and misquote Voltaire to him.

Just found out that Alanis Morissette has the same enneagram type as I do (4w5), and not a single bone in my body was surprised.

I hope this gets a PS5 release soon. Deconstructeam (and Devolver) consistently release games that mean something to me. As a person who loves narratives above anything else (I don’t want multiplayers, I don’t want to fight) this looks epic.

VIRTUE AND A SLEDGEHAMMER 🔴 OUT NOW 🔴 I STILL LOVE YOU MORE THAN I HATE YOU store.steampowered.com/app/3743260/...

Was just told I am "smoulderingly evil" by a man. That's just me on a Wednesday, sir. Buckle up your seatbelt. Or not. See if I care.

Suddenly have the urge to start writing cryptic notes and leave them in books at the library and bookstores. Stay tuned, this might be my calling.

Maybe I love it because I’ve lost a partner too and there is a certain type of poetry that only arises from ash, but if you’ve never read “Just Kids”, please do it. I revisit it every few years like an old friend. It gets better every time.

There is only ONE BAND touring here that I’ve wanted to see in ages, and they just cancelled their show this week. Universe, you owe me. I’m bummed.

Greetings from my instagram stories:

As a certified Disney hater, I concur. Make those princesses more interesting. Remember that time a guy made me watch Shrek on a first date? There was no second date.

mozzarella would be a beautiful name for a disney princess

One year since the most superior album was released. I love it even ✨more✨ now, after a year of contemplating lyrics and visuals. The amount of times I’ve been alone in the trees with my arms raised to this? A few, for certain.

I generally don’t think it’s a good idea to trust people who are professional actors. You’re a what? You pretend to be someone else for a living? No thank you.

I don’t actually get sad on Nov 1st. There is still an eerie feeling in the air. The pumpkins are left out to rot. A deeper chill sets in. It’s wonderful, I’ll probably go out and take photos today.

I get more texts and gifts on Halloween weekend than I do on my birthday, which is how I know that I’m living right.

Me handing out my famous Halloween treat bags, as always. A Dad dressed as Jack Sparrow knocks on the door alone. Him: “I hear you have Nerds gummy clusters, m’lady.” Me: *hands him a treat bag* “Now off with you, scallywag.”

The house has been decorated. The candy bowls are filled. The dvd player is loaded. The ritual has been written. Now, we wait.

Just did my least favourite task: jamming myself into the crawl space underneath my stairs to retrieve all of the fake tombstones that live there. It’s a tough job, but I’m the woman to get it done. #NobleEndeavors #HalloweenSupremacy #TombstoneParty #Contortionist

When you take the day before Halloween off and your friend/coworker notices:

Last year on Halloween I got a new Florence album. Today I woke up to a perfect gloomy morning, stretched, & immediately put on headphones & the new Ex:re. 🙌🏻

VAMPIRE POETRY Les Metamorphosis du Vampire is from Baudelaire's Les Fleurs Du Mal, 1857. The #vampire, boasting of seductive powers, claims 'Impotent angels damn themselves for me' ooh! #31DaysOfHalloween

Specific to my interests:

Me about to make two giant batches of my famous garlic pull-apart bread for a Halloween potluck tomorrow:

The story of my life: finding out that men had crushes on me 10+ years ago & never did anything about it. By the time I find out, they are either: married, moved away, dead, dead to me, or in one case, is now a woman. (That one rules the most.)

A transition was made today from autumn to spooky autumn. The deer stays there all year. The witch troll (a relic from my childhood) vanishes in November😌

I always find it strange when people who read a lot are not great writers, but then I remember that it doesn't mean they know how to articulate feelings. It just means they know how to read about them.

I am really grateful to have friends who understand that emotions are my wind tunnel & I’ll stand in them until I learn to control the gusts with my own hands. It’s just writer stuff. Magic stuff.

Me to my friend: “The three most important things I have to do this week are as follows: carve pumpkins, finish planning out my Samhain ritual, & watch my two fave seasonal movies, “Carnival of Souls” & “Over the Garden Wall”. Him: “Let me know if you need help wrangling live bats or whatever.”

About to wash out my red hair dye in the shower with the red light on. Don’t disturb my bloodbath unless I ask you to.
