An Illustrated Walk Of The Day Before

Mar 20, 2011 10:39

Yesterday was the first beautiful day of the year. Spring sunshine.
I'm not keen on spring. All too many of my worst childhood memories are punctuated by the nodding heads of flowers in the wind as if they laugh at me. It seems that the times standing on the edge of the playground, watching those who have friends, and not even finding solace in the ( Read more... )

Today was much sunnier, but due to a bout of blue-feelings and an inability to escape school or the house until the sun is well on it's way to setting I have not really been able to enjoy the weather ):
But, yes, Saturday was gorgeous. It was also not too warm, as if was today which left me sweltering.
I will leave my door wide open!

I'm glad that you think so, though you couldn't smell him. He always enjoys exercise though he, too, heats up much too quickly. I really wish that I had more photos of Sora to fawn over, she was so beautiful the last time I saw her.
Weren't they just? I really want to go back and take one with me back home. Sadly most passers-by just walked on, which is a right shame as they were truly missing out.

I'll admit that I stay at home much more than I should, but I understand your comment entirely. I think that when I am in the habit of having a space to myself, even a public one such as Delapre, I get a little possessive. That, and I do not like people. Especially people with badly behaved dogs or who are also afraid of Noggin. It's very annoying to see people shying away from dogs in what is essentially a dog-walkers area.

I don't know either. I am not good with eating in general, but it would seem that eating out (and getting out, too) are both monumental tasks for me that do not sit well with my physical well-being. I have a doctor's appointment on the 30th. Thank you.♥

Ah, the cherry blossoms are now in full bloom here. I forget just how breath-taking they are each year. On my way to and from school there is the most beautiful Japanese Sakura tree which I always wish to photograph but is very obviously in somebody's garden. Poo. I hope that this Spring brings similar beauties :)

I hope you didn't lose it!

I have the exact same feelings, seeing as when I'm lately finally ready to escape house, the sun is already reaching the horizon and I'm left unfulfilled. It's so frustrating that I have to sit in school while it's so beautiful outside.
I would slither in (notice the pun, please), even if it was closed.

I have some on my phone, but they're of a very poor quality. I actually plan on starting to post some photos of her on my LJ soon, seeing as my photographic tendencies are always woken up during Spring and when it's sunny.
It's good that you didn't take one home, though, because that way, I'm sure the pine scones will make someone else happy, too. : )

Yes, EXACTLY. I would SO like to roam all around with Sora, but just like you, I don't like people and sometimes even their behaviour towards Sora. It stresses me beyond imagination and then it truly is simply better for me to stay at home.
And I'm possessive of my alone time as well. To the point that it annoys my family, but those lonely moments are never enough for me, so I try to make the most of them.

I really hope the appointment goes well, my dear. ♥♥

They started to bloom early over there in Britain, so it seems! There is nothing but buds over here yet.

For all the talk, we lost it. :D It was mostly because we met this hyperactive 8 months old Vizsla (she kept on jumping at me every 10 seconds. She was so cute!) as soon as we left home and they had ball as well. So, with two balls, two hyperactive puppies, lots of mud and the Vizsla constantly jumping at me trying to reach my nose, I was so confused that I didn't have the head to heed the ball at all. Thankfully, it was just this old tennis ball that we lost.
The Vizsla owners lost theirs as well, though. In the thorny bush, ouch.

I didn't notice the pun. |: I slept on it and I still don't notice the pun. I have failed you D:

Awesome, and yeah, I suppose so, but I would still have enjoyed having but one of the many scattered about for my own enjoyment, selfish as it is.

I, too, enjoy my alone time. Luckily I have a family who feel the same about their own, so we tend to skip around each other for most of the time and then we'll come together each night. It's quite pleasant.

Thank you!

Sadly in this part of Britain they bloom early and are picture perfect for a couple of days before moulting and remaining bare for the rest of Spring.

Ah, I have encountered much of the same :)

It's not much of a pun, actually: Slither+in=Slytherin
Yeah, I don't know either.
My brain, how do you even work.

But you were braver than that and fought your temptation! Oh, how noble of you; oh, how admiration-worthy!
Still, I suppose it wouldn't be that much of a problem even if you slipped one in your pocket. I just wanted to have a small holier-than-thou moment, haha.

My family is like that as well. They just get annoyed at me when I'm in one of my moods and don't want to talk to them AT ALL. When I'm like that, I don't answer their questions and I suppose that gets on their nerves. Can't say I blame them, though.
I'm a terrible housemate apparently.
But I don't mind. Because I'm rather selfish like that.

It works magnificently!! I suppose it would have clicked should I have spoken it aloud, but alas, I did not!

Oh, you flatter me. 'Twas but a minute absence of human greed and the distraction of losing a ball in a giant nest.
Haha, I read that line and now I want cake |:
Wut?

Ah, I see. I'm lucky, I suppose. If I'm not talking then my mother and brother will, in that quirky way of theirs, talk nonsense to each other and leave me out of it.
I think you sound like a wonderful housemate!

That line is very cake-cravings inducing, indeed. I can't see it, sure, but that's undoubtedly caused by my short-sightedness.

I usually get all quiet when there are thousands things running through my head and especially when I'm frustrated. I just don't feel like talking, that's all. There's no special reason or ulterior motive behind it. My mother and sister, though, keep on trying to find it no matter what. They can't understand that not everyone is as open as they are and that not everyone wants to actually speak about their problems aloud. They just can't wrap their heads around it because they have probably never felt that way. And I can understand, I really can. It's just even more frustrating, knowing that you're the odd one. The odd one that is actually going to feel WORSE after speaking about troubles to other people.

You should wear your period-craving glasses and read it again. It all but screams cake-cravings!

That's such a shame. Do you know what does make you feel better? Instead of talking, that is? Sadly I cannot find a way around your problems with your mother and sister, so perhaps the only method is to try and sort things out as much as possible before you have to come into contact with them?
Just remember that it isn't forever ♥
