(via attnwh0re83) OH MY GOD I USED TO VOLUNTEER THERE!!! About five years ago, I think. I was the only girl in a group of guys who volunteered there the last friday of every month for about a year, which was awesome because they had to do the dirtier jobs of cleaning up the chicken coop, and I got to work on landscaping and hosing off surfaces and working out food and stuff.

love this girl, so glad we got things cleared up...
Rachel: Just. Don't punch walls, that can break your hands. Punch pillows or something.
S~: Yeah... I have a feather mattress! I can punch that! Or I can just stick to slapping stuff.

S~: Yeah, that would work re-- WAIT WHAT THAT GOES COMPLETELY AGAINST THE PURPOSES OF ME NOT HURTING MYSELF.
Rachel: But it'd be a good distraction!

The young maricones and the horny muchachas, The big fat widows delirious from insomnia, The young wives thirty hours’ pregnant, And the hoarse tomcats that cross my garden at night, Like a collar of palpitating sexual oysters Surround my solitary home, Enemies of my soul, Conspirators in pajamas Who exchange deep kisses for passwords. Radiant summer brings out the lovers In...
