little sunburn

that's what i got. spent like three hours with the kid in the pool. he friggin loves it - awesome.

tom robbins is very cool - today's tom robbins' quote "using words to describe magic is like cutting roast beef with a screw driver"

true romance - awesome movie; the appreciation of which might be the only thing my ex and i had in common. if you haven't seen it then you have made a mistake. that quote "if there's one thing this last week has taught me; it's better to have a gun and not need it then need one and not have it"

i braided my stepsister's hair today - inverted french braid. i forgot how good i am at that.

i read someone's account today that basically boiled down to saying that it was ignorant / narrow scoped to view the vatican's lauding of oscar wilde as a contradiction. i'm not sure i would call it a contradiction since they seem to pick and choose when they want to employ their judgements and when they don't, but it's definitely strange. one thing is cleared up - being gay is apparently preferable to being an audacious woman.

I only knew what hunted thought
Quickened his step, and why
He looked upon the garish day
With such a wistful eye;
The man had killed the thing he loved
And so he had to die.
___
Yet each man kills the thing he loves
By each let this be heard,
Some do it with a bitter look,
Some with a flattering word,
The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!

Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Lust,
Some with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.

Some love too little, some too long,
Some sell, and others buy;
Some do the deed with many tears,
And some without a sigh:
For each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.
