who the hell decided lemons were so fucking great, anyway?

life has thrown me some goddamned lemons... and i never have been good at making lemonade.
i really don't even like lemons in my water or tea.
so i mean... i guess things could most definitely be better.
i'm just living by the philosophy that i should take what i can get and don't be surprised if what i can get ends up being a fucking lemon in the end.
Just be happy with what i've got when i've got it.

i just read somewhere that the Romans thought lemons were the antidote to all poisons.
it's too bad romeo and juliet weren't in rome.
also, lemon juice is a natural bleach.
on plantations when the master would fuck a slave, the mainhouse slave would bathe the resulting baby in lemon juice to ensure no sign of blackness would be visible in the baby.
it's true.
then they would pass it off as a legitimate child of the master and his white woman.
i'm pretty sure that would be shitty for everyone involved.

you know what?
i think mixed babies are the cutest babies.

'maybe i'd be better off if i just end this quickly, it's not romantic. i'm just giving up and shutting down. i'm so sick of thinking, my head is broken.'
