New knitting project why must you vex me so?! This is the second time I’ve had to rip out a good half an hours worth of stitching. I guess that comes with making up your own patterns as you go, but usually it isn’t this frustrating! At least its going to be fabulous when its all finished!
You know that feeling you get when you have to undo the last twenty minutes worth of stitching because you fucked up somewhere right at the beggining of something?
Yeah, that.

My hair now has a section that is nearly the same as that of Ramona Flowers at the beggining of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.
Awesome.
Depression and Cutting
I often describe my depression as a beast, or a black hole. Cutting at first seems like a weapon against the beast. It feels like you can cut out the black hole, like you can kill the beast. But then another beast is born. Your weapon in the fight against the darkness becomes darkness itself. You are sucked even farther into a black hole.

Why am I always hit with barrage of really great ideas when I’m trying to fall asleep? It’s like my inspiring thoughts want me to have insomnia.
I hate my job
Somebody hire me?
@beefranck I think more of us feel that way than we guess. Which is why I shared. I don’t think many people have known I feel that way. But I know I’m not alone. Neither are you. None of us who feel that way are alone. Though it often feels like it.
Truthful Tuesday
Some days I dislike myself so much. Those days I can’t usually find any redeeming quality in myself. I have no sense of who I am. I cry and cry untill I’m empty. I feel that that is all I deserve. To be empty and alone, to cry, to hurt. Those days I think I am not myself. Something takes over. I am used by this dark devious thing that eats away at my insides. That sucks all the...

Ooooookay, 11. I like you.
Yay! I hate to admit it, but I actually like Eleven better than Nine. I feel like a traitor, but 11 is my favorite now. /end unsolicited DW musings.
11 is totally my favorite too!
