I love those days when you just DGAF
Hair looks like shit?
Homework still to do?
Room still to clean?
Bitches trying to make you mad?
Friends start giving you all of their annoying drama?
Mom reminds you that you’re accomplishing nothing and tells you to get off tumblr?
“I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it — to be fed so much love I couldn’t take any more. Just once. ”
—Haruki Murakami (Norwegian Wood)

divert your course......
This is the actual radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October of 1995.radio conversation released by the chief of naval operation, 10-10-95
Canadians:please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid collision.
American: recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid collision.
Canadian:negative. you will have to divert you course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision.
American:this is the captain of a us navy ship. i say again divert YOUR course.
Canadian:no, i say again divert YOUR course.
American:this is the aircraft carrier US LINCOLN, the second largest ship in the united states Atlantic fleet. we are accompanied with three destroyers, three cruisers and numerous support vessels. i DEMAND that you divert your course 15 degrees north. i say again one-five degrees north or counter-measures will be undertaken to insure the safety of this ship
Canadian:this is the lighthouse. your call.
Cute, but false. An excerpt from snopes.com:
“Not only does the Navy disclaim it, the anecdote shows up in a 1992 collection of jokes and tall tales. Worse, it appears in Stephen Covey’s 1989 The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, and he got it from a 1987 issue of Proceedings, a publication of the U.S. Naval Institute.”
