“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about.” -Rumi

“When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you’re not here, I can’t go to sleep. Praise God for those two insomnias! And the difference between them.” -Rumi

We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. — “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” April 16, 1963

You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

She’s Broked

9 June, 2005 /

Shaun here. I was supposed to start blogging again, but then everyone’s favorite toe-sock model went and threw her back out. So I’m the substitute here today. Don’t try getting away with not doing your regular work, or getting out early. I’m the substitute you hated in third grade!

I’m not sure I want to know what happens when she visits her mom and sister that brings her home home with injuries!! Thanks to everyone for their nice words, but her ass is duct-taped down to the bed(this time for purely non-sexual reasons) for a day or two. I’ll be sure to keep her updated on stuff, and of course will pass along any medicated rants or pictures I can get of her. Oh, and any ‘get well’ baked goods should probably be sent to my attention so I can, uh, make sure they, uh, get to her.
