Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

Tom

I have been steadfastly resisting all attempts to lure me into the netherworlds of Tumblr but your pictures broke me and I've bookmarked your site. You are incredibly talented.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm not getting all Tom's photos either, apparently. Do I need to do something aside from follow you, Tom?

I think the highest hit count on something I posted was the tiny transparent octopus perched on a fingertip. He was very popular for a while. The stack of ornate and beautiful Paperblanks journals I posted months ago has had a long reblog life, too.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

After resisting for a long time, I've fallen hard for tumblr. I'm still swimming in the shallow end, but I now have TWO tumblrs - one for just general faffing around and one for posting fannish stuff.

Tom's photos are absolutely wonderful, and they keep getting better and better, IMO.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm often surprised at which new things I post on the Good Stuff get picked up. I know I should post more to be more popular, but I basically can't be bothered...

hip deep in pie

I have a tumblr mostly to follow others. But I like it. I am there mostly for pictures of pretty things and pretty men.

Ooh, so one of my student loans got moved to a different servicing company, which led me to look at my account, where I saw that I've been overpaying every month, which means I don't owe them a payment until December, which means I will skip paying for a couple of months, which means cash to pay movers! Yay.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, good god, ita ! When I woke up this morning the first thing I remembered was that I'd made a hopped up on Ambien post. I really should know better, but when I think I have something to say...at least I slept well. Really well.

Anyway--tumblr is heady crack. It's really fun. I don't have that many different people friended, but I do get a nice variety of things coming across my dash.

So I have the editor of The Daily Caller following me on Twitter. Blocked.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, yuck, le n. My condolences. Do you need disinfectant?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

what is the daily caller? at work do not want to google.

mid-week break was nice but messed up my body, am so tired and confused that it is Friday, but happy. Mac got rid of 2 games, 1 boxed set DVD, and 2 gaming accessories last night and only bought 2 games. Net loss on stuff, so YAY! We need to do a clothing cull this weekend, he has moved up a size in shirts and I think all polos and button ups are headed out. Most of his t-shirts should be finem, but maybe I can clear a partial drawer.

Then there are the school supplies to gather. I already told him that we will use what we can from the piles in the closets before we buy new. I hope we can get by with only buying a small bag of new stuff, we have a stack of folders and paper that should work for one more year.
