“It’s no good pretending that any relationship has a future if your record collections disagree violently or if your favorite films wouldn’t even speak to each other if they met at a party.” —Nick Hornby (via brain-food)

“

Amor é um fogo que arde sem se ver;
É ferida que dói e não se sente;
É um contentamento descontente;
É dor que desatina sem doer.
É um não querer mais que bem querer;
É um andar solitário entre a gente;
É nunca contentar-se de contente;
É um cuidar que ganha em se perder.

É querer estar preso por vontade;
É servir a quem vence o vencedor;
É ter com quem nos mata lealdade.

”
—Luís de Camões

thank you for the lovely post..! so glad you finally rec'd them & do hope they weren't too melty. i was surprised they took so long, since you're really only a hop skip & a jump away. enjoy -- i tend to make them on the small side -- healthier that way, y'know. `;o)

My pleasure! They are  - some already “were” - the perfect size!

“The human body - well - it’s like the mind I guess; terribly impressive till you put it in jeopardy. Then it becomes such a delicate thing - like glass.” —Timothy Findley, The Wars (via quote-book)

Sitting and waiting for class to start. The jocks behind me cannot believe summer is over.

Neither can I.

#ENGLISH CLASS ON ATHLETICS BUILDING #FALL SEMESTER #BACK TO SCHOOL
School starts tomorrow...

And I can think of so many other exponentially better things to do than get ready for Fall Semester 2010.

  • I wanna catch up on my dash (haven’t been here since last night, oh my!)
  • I wanna see what’s up with the Emmys (what up Jim Parsons!!!)
  • I wanna answer a bunch of emails
  • I wanna find out about the True Blood finale which will air in two weeks (please Eric don’t die, pleeeeeease!)
  • I wanna finish this post before 11pm so I can watch the re-run of The Glades (which I am missing right now while, hum, writing this post)
  • I wanna talk to my sister who is on her way to Scotland as I type
  • I wanna do my toe nails with this new super cute color I bought this afternoon (the color is called Club Havana, just the name alone is awesome)
  • I wanna read Spider Bones, by Kathy Reichs (she is my favorite author and I’m all caught up with her novels so this ONE novel a year affair kills me. I try to read it slowly so it will last longer)
  • I wanna use the next 20 min wisely so I can finish most of these things before The Glades and still go to bed on a decent time so I won’t feel like crap tomorrow.

Fact: Cold pizza and coffee is the breakfast of champions.

It’s ok if you disagree.

StoryCorps » Danny & Annie → storycorps.org

Brooklynites Danny, an OTB clerk, and Annie, a nurse, remember their life together—from their first date to Danny’s final days with terminal cancer. This remarkable couple personifies the eloquence, grace, and poetry that can be found in the voices of every day people if we take the time to listen. Originally an animation in two parts, here you’ll see a special version that combines both parts of their story.

* Lili sent me the link for this website. Seriously, take five minutes of your life and browse around it. It’s beautiful.
