imma try to swim from something bigger than me.
If my life were a TV show, this past weekend would have been some kind of season finale. The details paint an unhappier picture than the reality, but SUFFICE TO SAY that it was loosely comprised of losing almost all of my valuables, the people I care about having no idea where I was for a few hours, and ending up at a police station in the middle ( Read more... ) -
forgiveness: actually the best gift there is.
Hello. As I so often need to do, I am going to start this post with an apology to everyone I've friended for my lack of dedication on livejournal. You are all in my heart, always. I'm lucky enough to be the kind of person who knows what and whom to appreciate, and I think it will be very difficult for me to forget much of the love and encouragement ( Read more... ) -
my life, in short scenes.
Wishing I didn't want this, or that, or him. Enviously witnessing someone else's abandon. "You deserve better. I hope things get easier for you." Catching pins before they hit the ground.

I'm not writing football slash anymore. I just don't feel any affection for these characters, knowing the flawed, changeable individuals to whom they are attached in the real world - knowing the limitations of these attachments.

A five-dollar note that I borrowed from my mother. That's all I've got to keep me going for, well, I don't know how long.
3. Do you label yourself?I used to be a big label ( Read more... ) -

I hope that you're doing things that make you happy and ( Read more... ) -
no one has the guts to shut us out.
Greetings, old chums! Again, many apologies for being a highly neglectful f-lister and disappearing for... however long I've been gone. I assure you, I do have excuses aplenty ( Read more... ) -

A meme: These are the titles from my WIP folder. Ordered in terms of how much I like them (at the moment). Feel free to ask about any of them. I think that's the whole point of this meme.
