Head Full of Nails

Heard it all before
fuckyeahtattoos: Simply put, this past year was one of the best and worst years of my life thus far. I put an extraordinary amount of pressure on myself to succeed in school and life which led to me disregarding necessities such as sleep and food.  Then, on March 22 (3/22/11) my best friend’s dad violently killed himself in their backyard. She is one of the most innocent, joyful, forgiving people I know and it was absolutely heart breaking to see her in so much pain. These two things combined contributed to debilitating anxiety and depression, however in the wake of such horror I experienced the most profound compassion and unbridled love from those around me.  One night, we snuck into my friend’s room (while she was gone) and hung hundreds of paper cranes from her ceiling and left a video message on her computer to discover later. We ended it with “The sun is always rising somewhere!” This phrase became a mantra for us in times of especially poignant  pain and now that I’ve learned to manage my depression it isa constantly reminder of the fact that life will be more horrible than you could ever imagine, but people will be more amazing than you could have ever dreamed.  Done on December 16th, 2011 at Infinity Tattoo in Portland, Oregon.

Work Party

So I got to my works Xmas party, I know I know, its after New Years but…. It is actually Ukrainian Christmas today. So shut it. :P

So I get there and eat and get high. So immediately after I get high. Thats when everyone wants to talk to me. So here I am reeking of pot and praying that no one says anything.

So after like 6 people talk to me my store manager comes up to me I am now sweating bullets as the joint I rolled was massive. But he is just fuckin hammered. Like to the point where he just about ends up kissing me…. It was weird and scary. O.o

Then there was the karoke. Oh my god! My coworkers are terrible!!! Most just mumbled the songs, And those that didn’t, sucked. Hard!

And since I have a cold my cold medication is making the high last longer. I’ve been high now for 6 hrs. Still have yet to burn out. Now I’m at home watching Family Guy Star Wars w/ a coworker while we screen phone calls from this girl that is “in love with him.”

I’ve been laughing so hard all night. Its been fantastic.
