Hi. This is weird.

Hello. I really don't know what you're supposed to write in your first post. It's all very awkward because I know nobody's reading it yet, so it all feels kind of pointless. I guess I'll just write about myself... because I’m unimaginative. So yeah. Don’t worry, I’ll try to talk about mildly interesting topics in the future. This is just gonna be our pilot episode, way less amusing but setting up the plot. Ya know?

My name is not really Lady Calypso, to first state the obvious. I kind of suck at making up clever nicknames and I just decided to use Calypso because it’s pretty (hey somebody’s gotta be superficial) and because it means “she who conceals”, which seemed fitting as a name to protect my anonymity. Then I added a Lady because I was listening to Lady Madonna by the Beatles at the time. And yes, I realize Calypso is also a nymph in the Odyssey, but that didn't really have anything to do with my choice.

I am a teenager attending high school. I’m pretty ready to be done with it and just move on to college but at the same time I think I need to learn to cook more than spaghetti and stir-fry before I face the world on my own... Or do I? I like spaghetti, I could probably make it work. Nahh I’d miss my cats.

What else? Here are just some random facts: I am terrified of dolphins. Like many 6 year old children, I love buying useless plastic crap that I throw out the next week. I like to give names to plants as well as inanimate objects. My celebrity crush is Darren Criss and his triangle eyebrows. I have a younger brother. I live in a city where it rains a lot but nobody who is a self-respecting citizen will carry an umbrella. I love converse and Doc Marten’s. Right at this very moment my favorite band is probably the doors but it varies every 5 minutes, it’s just so hard to decide! I love music of all genres, some more than others, but I’ll give anything a shot. I love love love bright, ridiculously colored lipstick, but other than that I hardly ever wear make-up. I’m very thrifty, I like to shop at used clothing stores and discover splendiferous clothing from lines I’ve never heard of. I love to submerge myself in books but I can’t stand Jane Austen. I like to sing and make art, and I’ll allow myself to say I’m pretty damn good at both (my modesty is astounding, I know). I also love photography and I’ll probably be posting a lot of photos, so hopefully you like it too!
Anywaysssss, that’s my "me" post. I’ll try not to bore you like that again... If anybody actually read this all the way to the end, all I have to say to you is: I love ya mom, and thanks for the support.

  1. Sometimes I legitimately wonder if we're the same person. We should have our DNA analyzed.

    By this I mean: reading your writing is like reading my own writing. IT'S SO DISCONCERTING! Obviously, we are the two cleverest and most articulate bloggers in the world.
