Anonymous asked: I swear that with every text post and answered message I love you more. You're such an amazing person.
Anonymous asked: This is awful, but my boyfriend is skinnier than me (by quite a bit) and it SUPER bothers me. I love him to death, but his body is like a giant ED trigger to me. It's so hard not to beat myself up and feel all huge and masculine next to him. :(

(I had to transcribe this poem, because it became an immediate favorite the second that I heard it. I am over 70 pounds heavier than my boyfriend, and I have thought, felt and said all of these things before. But he is perfect, and we are perfect together.)

about books
how things change:
I used to think that it was almost sacrilegious to deface a book. To cut it up. To tear the pages, to break the spines, to cover words in black marker to make poems. To highlight things and write in the margins, etc.

Trying to come up with a sensible ghost-turned-spiritual-guide-ish character for my Rose/Georgia original story.
The only thing that comes to my mind, because I’m being very cranky, is this old grumpy ghost of a Professor haunting the mezzanine of the library where he had a heart attack, and he sits at one of the table or walks among the stacks and rolls his eyes and mumbles...
