I’m like an alcoholic, but for fonts

1. This is why Rosie the Wrist Twister is the natural-born leader of CLAW:

Me – I have a brilliant idea! We should get two pregnant women to arm wrestle!

RtWT – I already lined that up for our next meeting.

2. I wish all the babies I adopt from Korea could sing like this.

3. Mitch Van Yahres was a great man.

4. After I took an alcohol sabbatical two weeks ago, I realized that my sobriety coincided exactly with Lent. Now it is obvious that I am doing this for Jesus, instead of selfishly just “not being an alcoholic.”

I don’t mind not drinking as much as I thought I would. And if I am out on the town and I start getting jealous of all the people with beers in their hands, I imagine that their bottles are full of ketchup and I get grossed out.

5. My friend Tyler Magill’s poetry is published in the first issue of literary magazine Makeout Creek.

6. How adorable are Cookie and Sugar of the Acorn Sisters? It kills me when they wear matching outfits.

7. At dinner last night I found myself (yet again) in the thick of a heated conversation about fonts. The bbf has a font wishlist on Typography.com worth $800. To distinguish myself from the typeface dorks sharing my guacamole, I pointed out that I have only downloaded one font in my life, the WWE font Misproject, which I use for my personal journaling.
