Some people call me Aly, or Echo, or some other nickname.
This is the one place where everything comes together and I post stuff that makes me laugh, cry, etc.
Not sure exactly what I'll say... but I hope y'all enjoy it!
People are always saying that change is a good thing. But all they’re really saying is that something you didn’t want to happen at all… has happened. But the truth is… I’m heartbroken. I feel as if a part of me has died, and my mother has died all over again, and no one can ever make it right.
It wasn’t… personal? What is that supposed to mean? I am so sick of that. All that means is that it wasn’t personal to you. But it was personal to me. It’s *personal* to a lot of people. And what’s so wrong with being personal, anyway? Whatever else anything is, it ought to begin by being personal.
Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, valuable, but small. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven’t been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn’t it be the other way around? I don’t really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So goodnight, dear void.
You are a lone reed standing tall, waving boldly in the corrupt sands of commerce.
The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don’t know what the hell they’re doing or who on earth they are, can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall! Decaf! Cappuccino!
Do you ever feel you’ve become the worst version of yourself?
But no one will ever remember you, Joe Fox. And maybe no one will remember me, either, but plenty of people remember my mother, and they think she was fine, and they think her store was something special. You are nothing but a suit!

The odd thing about this form of communication is that you’re more likely to talk about nothing than something. But I just want to say that all this nothing has meant more to me than so many somethings.

@SwayzeThatMothr and @ThatBloodDuchess: Don’t judge me, but I’ve been staring at Jaimie Alexander pictures all night.
