I suppose I should write another one of my all too frequent apologies for my latest disappearance. This one gets an excuse though. Since ending school, I moved into a place in Chicago and have no internet. So there. I have attempted to watch my friends here from time to time with little success. But I miss many of you terribly ( Read more... )

"Father? Mother?" Jonas asked tentatively after the evening meal. "I have a question I want to ask you ( Read more... )

So I find myself at the end of another year. And suddenly I am old. This isn't just a number. My body seems to get injured more, and most frightening of all, I am fairly sure my memory isn't what it was. I used to excuse this on an abuse of substances in my younger years, but I think it might just be age. Ok, so 22 doesn't seem like a usual time to ( Read more... )

I should apologize for my frequent disappearances from LJ. Sometimes I do not like to be seen. Often by myself. Though I have found plenty of times I have wished to post and just not had the energy to do so. So instead posts skitter about my head, rarely finding their way into cyberspace. It is often better that way ( Read more... )

The crisp refreshing air brings to life the senses upon my brow. This is a feeling only possible in quiet 3ams in suburbia. This is my time, when those with purpose escape the world to lie under Queen Mab's spell. And out saunter the creatures of the night. We appear very much like ordinary folk, we do not require black clothing, heavy makeup, and ( Read more... )

So the New Year has begun and people are finally getting back into the swing of things. I have returned to school, after a fairly successful semester with renewed hopes and a slack schedule. I am playing catch up on requirements from years ago, taking some braindead and tedious classes, as well as one that may prove challenging beyond my means. ( Read more... )

So here I am in Brighton, after a short silence. During that time I was up in Hereford, where there existed no internet for miles around. Just sheep and hedges and narrow country roads. Old cottages and dark cornered pubs serving bangers and mash. It was beautiful. But I couldn't enjoy it. Everything reminded me of her. The Bed and Breakfast, ( Read more... )

Here's to mornings spent in parlour, sipping tea and nibbling lime marmalade and apricot jam, whilst watching the blackbirds and grackles, chase one another through the thicket that is a traditional English garden. Here's to hedges and cloudy days, runs in the rain, frisbee in the park, and fulfilling days with my brother. Here's to classic films, ( Read more... )

So I am back at home, after a grueling set of finals, and relaxing for a short while before heading to England to meet up with my brother and see various other family members. My sister just returned from King Kong. She didn't know he dies at the end. I asked what she thought happened once he reached the top of the Empire State Building. Her ( Read more... )

I owe you a post, don't I.

My posts are far too long. I apologize. To make it better, I will include pictures!

Let's start at last Friday. I don't have school on fridays. I see you ( Read more... )
