Logan and I were invited to his ex's wedding in November. It's a formal/gothic dress code, so I've been looking at clothing that night fit the bill, since I don't rwqllt have a lot of nice formal dresses I could wear. I cannot state how much I hate shopping for clothing, on every level. I'm fine with jeans and a t-shirt or niceish top and sneakers. But, this will probably be the first time I'm going to be meeting his ex, and it is her wedding, so I want to look nice and make a good first impression. I'm hoping that as we get closer to autumn and Halloween, more places will have clothing more fitting for that season. Right now, it's all maxi and summer dresses in bright clorors. Lovely in their own right, but not what I'm looking for.
Logan and I aren't doing a handfasting, which is what this song alludes to with the imagery of threads of silk, but yeah, it's such a beautiful song. I sang this once, for Laura years and years ago, but songs don't have to hold significance for only one person in your life. I think this would be nice to play after the ceremony or at the reception. It's been stuck in my head for days now, I consider that a sign.
I've always thought a person's diet should always and whenever possible be hand free. Cannibalism is mostly regarded as a bad move. I mean, if I were ever to try it, I suppose hands would the perfect finger food. To each their own.
Seriously though, it's true a song can hold various meanings, rare but very possible. Makes that song particularly powerful.

Summer is not for me, especially living in SoCal. I just took a look at the forecast and it's going to be in the triple digits through next Saturday. I'd say it would be cooler out at Logan's next weekend, but that's a lie. The Valley gets just as hot as the IE. At least here, unlike when we move to Texas, it's a dry heat with very little humidity. But even so, I'm over this. Can we have winter back already?
I don't get people who can be all, "Happy fourth, God bless America!" Like, you see the state this country is in, right? In more than half the country women are dying because their rights to make a medical decision for themselves has been stripped away, our democratic republic is crumbling around us, we have two geriatric presidential candidates, one wants to be a dictator and supports neo-Nazis, the separation of Church and State has flown right out the goddamn window., the highest court in the land can apparently be bought.. Yeah, God bless America... Forgive me for my lack of pride to be an American, especially today.
Yet America is for the people of this world not the political caos around us. For those fought for what freedoms we believe we have or should. Those less fortunate but still salute the flag and respect their friends. Sorry
I don't know. If you're capable of separating things to celebrate the birth of a nation, all the power to you. I look around at the state of things, and I just can't. As a woman, in over half the country, I have less bodily autonomy than a corpse. I just don't understand how people can still sit here, proud of what America has become. Maybe that's just me, maybe I'm just horribly jaded and cynical, but it's how I personally feel about all of it. You can feel differently, it's not like I'm saying you're wrong for doing so, I just don't understand it.
Go to other countries and you may see why. Where individuals do not have any rights.

If the accusations of sexual assault against Neil Gaiman turn out to be true, I don't know how I'm going to feel. The sources who originally reported the claims aren't at all reputable, but I can't be like, "the woman are liars," just because it's alligations against someone I've admired for years. I guess only time will tell. I just hope it isn't true, because it would be absolutely devistating to find out that my favorite author is, in fact, a gross preditor.
I think what I'm looking forward to most about the move to Texas is the peace and quiet. We'll be on a few hundred acres, away from big cities and loads of people, and I just want that. I cannot wait. It's July and I live in a city where fireworks are legal, so of course I'm hearing them go off until all hours of the night, regardless of what day it is. It's like this most of June and pretty much all of July, and I gotta tell ya, it gets super fucking annoying. But man, the peace will be so nice.
It's been a horribly lazy Sunday. Lots of naps and resting. But, that's what 95+ degree weather does to me, drains me of any energy I have. I want auntum, winter back, those cooler temperatures, crisp, chill breezes, overcast skies.
