being handy is not the be-all and end-all of butchness, okay? aka procraaaastination.

I was just remembering how Michelle O'Brien has these awesome bookshelves that she built herself. I wish I could build shit, because I have way too many books and it's not like I can just take some of the surplus up to school with me (in part because when I have books I'd rather read instead of assigned readings, fucken right I read the books that I want to.) Of course I cannot build things, well at least not in that very concrete sense. Once I helped Cristina assemble a very little bookshelf and I seriously think that's what fucked us for the butch-femme dynamic. I'm joking but seriously. Hm. I'm almost done packing, I guess. I need some undershirts. My room here is a mess, which is surprising cos I thought once I got packed the amount of clutter would significantly decrease. Nope. Well, here ends procrastination post #2; I'm gonna finish packing and it's gonna feel so good, and then I will stretch and hopefully eat some ice cream and then I will enjoy the company of my mom and my cat because that is exactly how cool my last day at home is. In other words, just right.

ps- Ooh and oh I get to see my girl tomorrow! I think she will be wearing knee-high boots when I pick her up which is extra exciting and she will probably make me carry her bags and I am so excited, I haven't seen Cristina in 3 months.

You should read The Man who fell in Love with the Moon. At first you may very well say, dear God, wtf is this semi-literate mierda, but after a while you'll get into the groove of one language reflecting another language, deconstructin' x 8918091, but sexy.

Aaaah reunions are so sweet. When you can see and touch each other again old issues seem to fade away.

And I can build bookshelves, but I bet you knew that ;)

[starfrosting.livejournal.com]

I did know that. You should help me build some (by which I mean build them for me) some time.

Mere hours, man. How sweet is that?

The handiest book shelves ever are milk crates. You can use masking tape to hold them all together when they're being shelves. When it's time to move, cut the tape, flip them on their bottoms, and you're packed to go. I've had the same ones for more than 6 years.

[starfrosting.livejournal.com]

Yes, but, if I did that, I would never have to learn how to build simple things with wood and nails ever.

[go-team-venture.livejournal.com]

Sure you would, just not bookcases. You could focus on zine racks.

Zine racks! Okay, now I'm sold.

ok, you need to watch some hgtv. bookshelves are easy. just try it form scratch! if you're following your imagination it's easier than following directions

I have never built bookshelves, but it seems like it'd be easy.

How about some healthy butch arrogance? That should help you here.

I'm in the student center right now. I saw Hot Alex and thought to myself, "Wow, Oli needs to come visit me."

[starfrosting.livejournal.com]

Dude, who is Hot Alex? And I totally need to come visit you. When is good? I brought my car with you in mind.

And yeah, healthy butch arrogance comes in handy. I was actually thinking the other day about pride and shame and especially in relation to (my? others'?) butchness and hmm we should talk about it sometime, but maybe in person.

I just bought books.
