" I am not the first person you loved.
You are not the first person I looked at
with a mouthful of forevers. We
have both known loss like the sharp edges
of a knife. We have both lived with lips
more scar tissue than skin. Our love came
unannounced in the middle of the night.
Our love came when we’d given up

Excuse me as I go back under my rock and try to survive. On the bright side of things, the sunset was incredibly beautiful last night, and I got to go to the beach to witness it. So that was lovely.
This was a great surprise to find on Refinery29. Gorgeous images from a really interesting sounding magazine issue. Some very sexy and NSFW images. ENJOY.
My mom sent me an email with the Spice Girls version of Sleigh Ride. It was awesome. So, I feel like sharing more Spice Girls holiday cheer, because... well they are cheese-tastic and I can't help but love them. So, you are welcome. Enjoy some Spice Girls Christmas concert sing-along-fun. LOVE!

(That is my wonderful friend who went with me on this adventure.)
I just really loved and marveled at the

"Your Laughter"
Take bread away from me, if you wish,

the sudden wave

with eyes tired
at times from having seen...
