Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep
My grandmother passed away Monday night. I wasn’t close to her; I don’t think she was someone anyone could be.
Still, watching the undertakers carry the coffin to the hearse, take her one last time out the door of that old house she loved so much, I wish.
Sometimes you think that they’re going to live forever, you know?

Who says I can't be free from all of the things...
I don’t get why the Twilight vampires break like porcelain figurines. Literal interpretation of “like a marble statue sculpted by Michelangelo”??
Okay, alright; fiction of fiction. If Smeyer wants her vampires made of cheese, then by golly they will be made of cheese. (*Jacob gives Bella a bracelet with a werewolf charm* Jacob: I made this myself. Me: HOW? Marina: With his...

You're so busy making maps with my name on them in...
In the church below, Mass was beginning with the sound of a pipe organ. The melodious chords of a hymn drifted up into the bell tower. The music annoyed him. “But not so frail and weak as to prevent him from slaying Hadriel and gravely wounding you?”
Cassiel squirmed, struggling to sit up. “The… the space was cramped and there was blinding smoke. Please…”

I know just what I did to deserve this
I’m reading that book about a half-human-angel boy named Aaron and the story goes like this: a group of angels who were supposed to be guiding protectors to humans on earth started guiding entirely something else into them (oh hey, I just had an Eternal flashback) and became the Fallen.
Somewhere, a poverty-stricken old man with cataracts who lives in a dirty hut (prerequisites for a true...

Okay, so I gather there must exist a rule in Southern Vampire Mysteries that only Sookie Stackhouse is allowed to have an attractive and/or powerful boyfriend. TRY OTHERWISE AND BE PUNISHEDDD, either by: a) Death Thou shalt not be distracted by romantic relationships when there be Sookie, or allowed to be made happy by anyone but Sookie, so oops, Maria-Star, Alcide’s new fiancee, and Dawson,...

Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
So, I’ve been reading Charlaine Harris’s Southern Vampire Mysteries a.k.a. True Blood and I’m on the fifth eBook now and have probably earned another +200 in eye power along the way, but it was gooood. I can totally self-insert without needing to self-throttle every few pages, hi, Bella. But one more time I have to read about Sookie’s “white boat-necked t-shirt...

I am still painting flowers for you
GRADUATION. March 10th, and it was at the same hotel as Taylor’s SAM prom back in 2006, perhaps the same floor and room even because the hallway looked vaguely familiar? HAVE NO IDEA. It was my dad who reminded me it was the same place, memory fail /o\ Anyhow, it was one part fun, one part why-didn’t-I-do-absentia?!

Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
This one is a heavenly-looking young man. He’s tall and muscled like a swimmer or a statue by Michelangelo. No, not a statue, nothing so mundane, so common, as a mere masterpiece. More like its inspiration.

I bought Cynthia Leitich Smith’s Eternal today. It was sealed and I couldn’t take a peek, but… “A fallen angel; A vampire princess; Can their love be ~ETERNAL”. TELL ME THAT DOESN’T SOUND PROMISING. Then I went home, opened the wrap and -
I may be heaven-sent, but I’m not perfect.

Leaving Cheyenne (1962)
“All right,” I said. “Hold your horses. I don’t want to be poor. But you can not want to be poor and still not care whether you’re rich or not.”
“Yes, and them’s the kind of people that never accomplish nothing,” he said. “They’re just damn mediocre. If you’re gonna try at all, you ought to try for something big.”

When you came in the air went out
I’m reading Lonesome Dove but because my traitorous fingers slutted it up with Google five minutes ago, I found out that Augustus hung Jake Spoon WAY BEFORE AUGUSTUS HUNG JAKE SPOON.
I finished House, season 5, with my mom today, but I ALSO knew sex with Cuddy was going to happen and consequently that it was a hallucination because GOOGLE SATAN TOLD ME SO. Then I had to pretend that I totes...

Where the lovelight gleams
Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays, everyone! I’m excited for the Christmas movies tomorrow *jiggle*. Hallmark, don’t fail me.
I just had fried eggs with ketchup; so good I forgot my name. Burp.

Will you be my love among the fields of barley?
I watched A Christmas Carol the other day in 3D. HA HA HA HA HA COME CLOSER. HA HA HA HA HA TAKE MY ROBE. HA HA HA HA HA. HA HA HA HA. The snow was pretty though.
David Archuleta covered Five For Fighting’s The Riddle (You and I) ♥! That song’s second on my iTunes Top 25. Right after Paris Hilton’s Nothing In This World, HA HA HA HA.

I woke up early to baby blue eyes from the fire
So… I can do anything I want right now! Without having to look over my shoulder for any signs of a deadline! And that really ought to come accompanied by some kind of wow but I’m getting nothing, even after a week (it doesn’t take away from the exciting times ahead though, mind you, EXCITING TIMES! \o/). I think it’s probably because I’ve always done whatever anyway;...
