The Wall

Another Austin Sunset from Pennypacker Bridge – photo credit
The week before last I hit a wall. My breaking point, if you will. After almost exactly 4 months in a new city in a new state (which feels like the other side of the world), in a new job in a new environment and going from [...]

Wallpaper

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: September 30, 2008

Yes, this post is mostly about wallpaper. It’s also about the ex but frankly I care more about the wallpaper.
So, as I’m continuing my job hunt I’m living with my parents in the house I moved into at the age of 6, left at 18 for college, and then again at 22 for the city [...]

I wish there was rehab for a broken heart…

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: August 11, 2008

I view Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in a whole new light now. But wouldn’t rehab be nice? It should have really great beds that you can just sink into, making sleep so easy. Go away for 30 days, have someone there through detox of emotions, all the sappy movies you can cry to, [...]

Existentialists, I apologize

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: April 9, 2008

Dear Ex,
What’s up? As you know I’m dealing with a fairly significant life decision at the moment, do I move to Georgia or return to Chicago? And as of 3pm this afternoon, let’s throw Boston into the mix. I realize that I do not actually have offers yet. But I’m going on campus and I’m [...]

My most excellent, very important not very interesting day

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: August 3, 2007

Today if I had to sum up my luck in life, today would be the day I would put in the dictionary for the word(s?) “Typical Greenleaf”. And if you know me, which you don’t because this bloggy-blog is totally anonymous (and I LOVE that) and NO ONE I know knows I have this thing. [...]

Oh Harry, you have me under your grip

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: July 23, 2007

So, in case you’ve been living under a rock this last week, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows came out on Friday. Being a more reclusive yet anxious HP fan, I put mine on reserve. I decided not to go up to Evanston to pick it up at midnight, seeing as a) street parking is [...]

Insomnia

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: July 19, 2007

I can’t sleep. This is the third night this week, I’ve gone to bed and then finally got up and out of bed to get on the computer in the hopes of dulling my eyes to sleep by staring at the monitor in the dark. I probably look like someone out of a Stephen King [...]

Happiness is…

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: May 24, 2007

Phone call yesterday at work:
R: Guess where I am?
Me: Brazil!
R: Um, I wish. No, I’m at the store getting us food for the dinner I’m going to make you tonight.
Me: AWESOME! What are you going to make?
R: It’s a surprise.
Me: Will I like it?
R: It will be the best thing ever.
Me: Even if it’s pork?
R: [...]

It’s totally awesome when

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: May 2, 2007

you accidently hit speakerphone and the whole office can hear your boyfriend’s voicemail.
It’s a good thing it was really funny and not lovey dovey.

Let’s start an orphange while we’re at it

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: May 1, 2007

Early morning 5:30 AM, my understanding of what transpired*:
Greenleafgal “sleeping”: Hey, let’s start a new group.
BF getting ready for work: Ok, what kind of group?
GG: Refugees For New Hospitals!
BF: Uh… OK. What?
GG emphatically with a fist raised in the air**: RefuGEES for NEW Hospitals!!!
BF: Well, I support Refugees and I support hospitals…. (trails off)
GG: Ha, [...]
