random thing i just remembered about my childhood is telling my old friend i was super excited to see my grandpa (he was very distant and only visited with us like once every five years until i was 14/15) and my friend being super confused because she got to see her grandpa all the time 🙃

anyways, hi, I’m Rose, I brought the fruit salad, and I still grieve the relationship I could’ve had with my grandpa if circumstances had been different

as a kid, i didn’t understand why my grandpa was the way he was. as a very young adult, i understand it: he wasn’t used to being lonely. he went from having a happy family to losing his wife to losing his only daughter two years later. he might not have wanted to see my dad die either, and—

confession: my guilty pleasure show is Three's Company. it started when my dad was a kid, and he passed it onto me. my mom despises it. as a result, I only watch it when she's sleeping or away from home. definitely not a show I would defend with my whole life but I still love to watch it.

only after i started perfecting my grammar last year did i start to realize how many commas are improperly placed, and now i can't look at a single sentence like that without cringing

got your whole life ahead of you. you're only nineteen (it's me i'm you)

when will it stop being cool to be quietly misunderstood?

I'M STILL ANGRY AT MY PARENTS FOR WHAT THEIR PARENTS DID TO THEM, BUT IT'S A START!!!

sometimes i look at my dogs and just go, "wow. they would not survive in the wild"

...and then they end up wanting to go back outside in your fenced backyard. this is on par for her half Great Pyrenees side, i guess. lol.

the worst feeling in the world is having to listen to your dog cry because there's nothing you can do for them and you just have to hope they cry themself to sleep

gotta love how my cat used to love being in my room at night and staying in here overnight, and now that he's grown out of that, my 6-year-old dog has suddenly decided she needs to sleep in here every night lol

just thought of a godawful plot to put my MC through the chapter right after meeting her girlfriend's parents and it's so bad i physically want to throw up. she used to be a sweetheart. she doesn't deserve this.

just realized that there's healthy adult humans who weigh less than my dog and that's a very scary thought

was gonna say that my sleeping schedule is super fucked and i can’t get a good night’s sleep in anymore but then i remembered that i did, in fact, go to bed early (for me) last night, so i got 9 hours of sleep

and now i’m going to bed because my bones ache. goodnight little people in my phone 🫶🏻

trying to create a variant of this. if it fails, it fails, BUT what perfect album came out the year you turned 18? i’ll start with TTPD, my beloved 😌

i’m not the eldest daughter, but i am the Eldest Daughter

if i tell anyone i love them more than my dog, i’m lying. i love my dog more than i love myself. she’s the reason i’m alive. nobody will ever compare to her.

🥰😍😊 abigail called me 😊😍🥰 😢😭😢 with the bad news 😢😭😢

Hannah Grae deserves to blow up this year so she can come to america and i can have a chance at seeing her live

dogs are weird creatures because why would you come up to someone’s feet and decide they look very lickable AND ACTUALLY LICK THEM

besties, as readers (specifically fanfiction, but all genres welcome), do you think you pick up on most contradictory statements about the main character's past when the details span over 60 chapters? because i fear i've messed up the small details of my mc's past in writing so many times 😭

this is my version of existential dread

i keep opening up my docs to write but then i can't focus with my music playing in the background but i don't want to shut the music off but i have to do something with my time like the sims but i have to shut off my music if i want to play the sims so i have nothing to do

i don't wanna be a bitch but somehow... YOU MAKE ME WANNA RIP MY OWN DAMN EYES OUT!!!

didn't realize this was already out but i'm finally listening to it so everyone else has to too!!!

just randomly remembered that my old “friend” (don’t consider her as ever being my friend anymore) lied to the teacher in math class once and said i cheated on a test simply because she turned hers in first??? i didn’t cheat. i also blocked this out of my memory for 8 years.

she doesn't deserve any of the shit i've put her through, this included

brb sobbing over the trauma i've given my OC

another of the many things i love about my oldest dog is how disoriented he gets when he first wakes up. the other night, when my mom got home from work, it woke him up. he looked straight at her and then went to staring at the front door, waiting for her to walk in. it was some comedic type shit.

to be fair, though, the two oldest ARE named Nicky and Dixie so they're destined to respond to each other's names. i don't understand how they get their names from Ruby or Nugget but to each their own

the fun thing about having 4 dogs is the 2 oldest (14 and 11) responding to all of the other's names. i don't know if they think they have a million names or if they just expect attention no matter what but it's still sort of funny. at least i know their memories are still intact!

I WANT YOU, BUTTERFLY, I WANT YOU, SAILOR. I AM YOUR LOVER AND I! AM! !!YOUR!! !!!!!JAILOR!!!!!

fuck nudes, show me your dog

girl life is sending your mom info about a groomer for your two very large dogs just because you were bored and went on a tangent (and she's the one who books most appointments)

an hour and 24 minutes later he responds… i don’t think i’m even hungry anymore 😭

an hour…

43 fucking minutes and he still hasn’t even read my text

texted my dad asking where he is to see if he’ll pick me up something for supper or if i’ll have to get it myself and he hasn’t responded. IT’S BEEN 17 MINUTES!!! (i’m impatient) fathers shouldn’t have phones if they’re only going to check them on time once a year

person next to me in parking lot is also on their phone and i don’t want to get out of the car and disturb them but i also need to get out within the next minute 😭

and then parking in a spot farther away because at least now nobody has to struggle to leave their spot

ooo also, i left this parking lot the first time i came in and there weren’t any marked spots and almost got t-boned by a bus because i have a small car and couldn’t see around the corner of the building. thank god for my fast reflexes or i would be on the side of the road right now

ALSO also, i hope the person in front of me doesn’t get done here before i do because i fear they may have to do some nifty parallel parking shit. to this person, i’m so sorry. we just had the same idea and there was nowhere else to park 😭

but seriously why is the fucking music store parking lot packed at 1:45 in the afternoon on a weekday i hate this

AND MY SPOT FROM LAST TIME IS BLOCKED BY ROAD CONSTRUCTION 😭😭😭

girl life is parking super badly a mile from your destination because you don’t want to block anyone in but now you’re scared you might be blocking the way for other cars

does anyone else have Taylor lyrics they only understand ages after they’re released because “i’m immortal now, baby dolls” finally just clicked in my head

the generational shock i’ve never recovered from is millenials having grandparents the same age as mine. like i get it, my mom was 42 when she had me and her mom was 41 when she had her, but it’s still a little weird 😭
