And this morning I wake up in a world without my oldest sister Marie, who died 4 years ago this week…and now without my father who passed away yesterday morning…and all I can think about is how unfair this is…one family shouldn’t have to lose this much.

“Dear Internet” by Tina Fey
From PerezHilton.com/Posted by jerkstore on Wednesday, 1/21/2009, 11:21 P.M.
“In my opinion Tina Fey completely ruined SNL. The only reason she’s celebrated is because she’s a woman and an outspoken liberal. She has not a single funny bone in her body.”
“Dear jerkstore,
Huzzah for the Truth Teller! Women in this country have been over-celebrated for too long. Just last night there was a story on my local news about a “missing girl,” and they must have dedicated seven or eight minutes to “where she was last seen” and “how she might have been abducted by a close family friend,” and I thought, “What is this, the News for Chicks?” Then there was some story about Hillary Clinton flying to some country because she’s secretary of state. Why do we keep talking about these dumdums? We are a society that constantly celebrates no one but women and it must stop! I want to hear what the men of the world have been up to. What fun new guns have they invented? What are they raping these days? What’s Michael Bay’s next film going to be?
When I first set out to ruin SNL, I didn’t think anyone would notice, but I persevered because—like you trying to do a nine-piece jigsaw puzzle—it was a labor of love.
I’m not one to toot my own horn, but I feel safe with you, jerkstore, so I’ll say it. Everything you ever hated on SNL was by me, and anything you ever liked was by someone else who did it against my will.
Sincerely,
Tina Fey
P.S. You know who does have a funny bone in her body? Your mom every night for a dollar.”
MY HERO.

I watched this movie last night and can’t recommend it enough. The soundtrack is brilliant, and the narrative reminds me a bit of Jonathan Safran Foer’s style — different parts of the same story interwoven with short bits interspersed emphasizing love, sadness, and joy.
Do yourself and favor and watch Beginners this weekend. I also want all of Melanie Laurent’s clothes from the film. So if you can make that happen I’d be incredibly appreciative.

That’s my second tattoo and it’s a Audrey Kawasaki painting.

Pay money that you don’t have to graduate from college to go into a world with no jobs. But everything is fine because you have a piece of paper saying you’re a college graduate while you’re busy working at Starbucks trying to make ends meet.
