for some reason this reminds me very strongly of the phantom tollbooth

this is shaping up to be the most ridiculous summer ever.
i’ve finally got a place to live. perfect sublet with a bunch of twentysomething girls, old college pals, ten blocks from the lake.
and someone just called me back about a job which involves telephoning brides and telling them to come to demonstrations of high quality cookware.

BY WHICH I MEAN THIS IS VERY SURREAL AND I’M KIND OF EXCITED I GUESS
best track from her new album.
i’m just a soul whose intentions are good
oh lord please don’t let me be misunderstood

i feel as though i haven’t written anything in a long time.
the weather’s still shit. 40 degrees and chill wind and spitting drizzle, every day. i didn’t get the internship. i’ve been indoors at all hours, scrolling with zombie diligence through literally every job posting on craigslist. out of the 8 places i’ve applied so far, one person has even emailed me back. most of the positions are in the cities, because i need to get out of this goddamned motherfucking godforsaken friendless drained-dry shithole of a town or i’m going to slide right back into the miserable depression of last year.
just before coming back here for the summer, i was trying to defend it to someone, saying this city wasn’t just some run-of-the-mill dying midwest outpost, it was actually interesting and an alright place to call a hometown. and he said, “yeah, i’m sure it’s great — until you get there.” i can’t think of anything truer.
trying to keep sane via endless cups of coffee and mystery novels. i can’t believe it’s only been a week. i feel like i’ve been here forever.
Vanessa Vinšipa. Odessa, from the series “Black Sea”
one time i wrote a story about two girls this age in white dresses and one was called laurel, and the picture i had of her in my head looks almost exactly like the girl on the left.
the world, you guys. i just can’t. it’s so good.
