What Possessed Me

Giant Lamprey Eel Attacks Small Asian Girl

My beloved Vivi is getting married this weekend, so I am off to join her wedding festivities. (This is me giving Vivi a big kiss because I love her so much.)

Will be back on Monday with pictures!

Have a lovely weekend.

In which I assuage my guilt through self-delusion

"This will make a lovely hostess gift."

Seda France candle from Woodley & Bunny Apothecary (the best one is Japanese Quince). I am warning you that this is a very dangerous place. I suggest you do not visit while drunk/fragile/bored. I am also warning you that after you come terms with the fact that you are bullshitting yourself about the hostess gift and that you are in fact a greedy bastard, you will not be able to open the pretty pagoda-like toile box. You will stare at it on your coffee table, overwhelmed by its beauty. After several days of this your boyfriend/husband/child will say, "ARE YOU EVER GOING TO OPEN THAT THING?"

Then you do - you open it and light it for like, five minutes, because it's just too lovely to waste and you want to keep it and savor it forever.

I want to go with the one I love

I want to go with the one I love.
I do not want to calculate the cost.
I do not want to think about whether it's good.
I do not want to know whether he loves me.
I want to go with whom I love.

- Bertolt Brecht
