alex is at band practice and i could clean the bathroom and the bedroom because i said i would…but i would rather sit in bed and dream of eclairs and macaroons.
Play
things that happened to me today that i did not like
- kinda getting shit for being american. at the american grocery store. seriously? who else even shops there?
- got pushed off the bus by some middle aged dude who apparently had somewhere to be faster than i was moving. off the crowded bus.
- got walked into by somebody and they did not say ‘excuse me.’
- opened the door for someone and they just walked past me.
frontier ruckus is playing in oxford for one date in may. then they have no gigs until august. i really think someone should book them a gig in edinburgh and make their trip worth it.
update: jamie is the best friend ever and told me they are playing in glasgow for only £6 and i am gonna go and be so so so so happy.
i had a dream i was fumbling to find change to get on the bus and this nice girl was like, ‘here,i’ll walk.’ and she handed me her day ticket. it was a nice dream.

“i need the caffeine. and the sugar. i need the sugar. i need energy to go take a shower. my B12 didn’t work. i hate this slow release shit. i feel like if you’re going to get injected with something it should work real fast.”

fact:
if a venue hangs your artwork in their space, and ruins it when they take it down without your permission, they should pay you for whatever they destroyed.

an open letter to scotland
dear scotland:
hi there. it’s me, lauren. i know i don’t usually ask you for things, but this is really important. i really need you to be mild in temperature by the time april 7 rolls around. i will do nearly anything for this. do you want me to stop making fun of how your people say ‘hummus’? you got it. want me to learn the metric system? i will try really hard. please consider this request urgent. i like you, scotland. i really do. i’ve given all i can and now i ask for this one thing in return.
thank you for your consideration.
regards,
lauren
i’m sort of down on photography right now; it’s hard to get motivated to do something that people want to piss all over. had a crazy thought to just sell my camera and all it’s components today, but realized that would be very stupid of me.
