i visit your blog about two times a day. i don't necessarily read anything. i think it's just a habit i developed. i feel better once i visit your site, even if i don't read its content. it's probably the only thing keeping me sane at 1:49 A.M. on a Monday morning as I work on my English homework due in a few hours. thank you :).
p.s. i will actually read parts of Eat When You Feel Sad
my blog provides comfort just by existing, i am glad
:)
hey zachary german,
i read it, it was good
and you're crazy
good, weird catch
video good happy
oh yeah tao, thanks for actually responding to your blog fans' comments. it makes me feel better. like i have some hope for this world. i hate when authors are too busy and too famous to give a damn about their fans. honestly i don't think i've read any of your books from beginning to end but whatever, your stuff is good and i'm looking forward to actually reading it all. you inspire me unlike most authors who i try contacting like ned vizzini but never get a personal response back.
thanks,
grace

i support people who ignore people
if they are ignoring people that means they are focused on some other people or on some work or project or something
a person can only focus their attention on a certain amount of things at one time
therefore some things will be ignored
i support people who ignore some people to focus on some other people
i blogged about that somewhere on this blog
if i liked someone a lot i would not want to stop spending time with them in order to respond personally to 50 myspace messages from people i have never seen
if those 50 people wanted me to stop spending time with someone or stop spending time on some project in order to personally reply to them then i would not want to know those people that much
but i do understand thanking someone for doing something that is directed at you, i like that i think, you're welcome
that's true.
i guess sometimes when you read books and you're like really inspired by them you have the urge to like meet the author except that's really creepy and basically impossible.
i'm usually not this idealistic, i still like ned vizzini because i really like his books.

tao- that is the ugliest flyer in the world, you should be ashamed.
Tao-
I like you. You are good. Will you send me something to read in the mail?
mazie, write drunk poems about loneliness, i will mail you something some day
Tao Lin-
You are good and smart and funny and creative. These are very good qualities to have. I have not been successful at getting drunk lately. But I have been very lonely. Perhaps I should write lonely poems about being drunk.
mazie,
that is a good idea. i condone this for drunk blog.
can everyone tell me how to get a fake id? i can't blog for DRUNK without a fake id.

i just made fun of tao lin but then i felt bad and deleted it because i didn't want to make him sad.
it was a really funny joke though.
i live in college, where everyone is drunk which is what i am now. pink truck wine & sierra mist tastes okay. can i get ear buds permanently implanted in my head? will there ever be a promotional event for bear parade that is actually a bear parade? but not really bears just people as bears
can people promote me getting a fake id more?
