Ask a very drunk person who got her MA in literature 2 years ago and is doing pretty damn well anything.

Or: talk about Sandor Marai, that annoyingly conservative fellow who never fails the socialist in me go "preach it, man"...

I am giving you a choice and a cute spider gif.

I have a decent office job which pays the bills and stuff, and a second, "degree-related" and definitely more creative job which sometimes earns me more than the first one. It did last June, at least.

Not to mention a happy relationship, an okay social life and the fact that I'm going on holiday on Monday.

Pretty decent, isn't it?

Except if it is, would I ever get drunk, and alone at that?

Gin and tonic. I was grocery shopping today and I bought a bottle of gin. And then, since I am apparently going through a very uncreative and stressful period in life, I bought a bottle of tonic.

Will post pics of feet when I find some. Yes, I should have them on my hard drive. If I don't, I will take some.

Carl Sandburg, I should think.

Also:

Seamus Heaney, Wisława Szymborska, Jacek Dehnel, Wendy Cope, Julian Tuwim, Ron Padgett, Endre Ady, Roger McGough... I read quite a lot of poetry but I rarely concentrate on one poet long enough to really feel he or she is The Greatest Poet in the Motherfucking World.

Soooo... here come the feet. They're in bad shape because I walk a lot, and I have naturally ugly feet.

I did not want to do a routine timestamp so I wrote a line from my favorite poem by Carl Sandburg on them instead... Lines Written For Gene Kelly to Dance To.

I am drinking alone because I've found out household chores are MUCH easier and more fun when you're drunk. And I wanted to clean my pad because I don't want to come back to a dirty flat after my vacation.

Also, Thursday. Not many people around who would be willing to drink on a Thursday. Mind you, I am almost 25 and so are my friends.

There ain't nothin' wrong with drinking alone. Hell, I do it on a regular basis, and I feel pretty okay about what I'm doin'.

I am an alcoholic, but a moderate one. Drinking alone is still okey-dokey in my book though, regardless of alcoholism or lack thereof.

why do you not watch battle rap?

why do you not have head ice on your list of favorite poets?

why do you make threads on /lit/ showcasing your drunkness and posting off-topic material concealed by an on-topic veneer?

no, seriously, why not be a fan of ice? he bodies all the ones you mentioned

also fuck off and get reported for starting these asinine "discussion" threads that go nowhere
