Time for "that" post

White Rabbit


So, as you can probably see, my journal is not entirely friends-only. It's about 40% public, 50% friends-only, and 10% private. I'll usually only add people I've been talking to in communities a lot, so if we've been chatting and you want to add me, send me a request. :)

Booklist: approx. 3/11-...

Geek
Since I'm a huge book nerd and I used to love keeping track of what I'd read, I decided to make a list on here. Dunno why I didn't do it before now. I'll add to it until it starts to get too full and too hard to follow, and then I'll start a new one (hence the empty date in the subject). I'm starting it 3/11 because I read some awesome books in the last few months that I want to include on here, but I don't remember all of the books that I've read between 3/11 and today (6/11), so this isn't retroactively comprehensive. I would usually just list them chronologically as I read them, but in the interest of making them easy to find I will list them here alphabetically by title. With little stars as ratings (on a scale of 1-5). Anyway, the books!

I finally had the once-and-for-all are-we-or-aren't-we talk with Jubal because I finally realized I'm ready for and want something concrete and tangible and (possibly) permanent and we came to the conclusion that we "aren't."

It's not that he doesn't care about me, he just doesn't understand the logic of relationships because he's fucking Spock or something (no really) and relationships aren't logical, so he just feels completely at a loss when it comes to them and he said something about never quite fitting, like the wrong tetris piece. I don't know. I don't blame him. It's something I've known about him for a while, and deep down I knew it was never going to just fall into place for us like I kept waiting and hoping for, but I let it go because for a while it was all I needed, but I finally realized that it's not anymore.

So we're still going to be friends. He's still an amazing friend, and an amazing person period. But it still hurts for now, especially because I'm more worried about him dealing with this than I am about me and then I'm like "holy fuck does that mean I love him, if I'm hurting but I'm still more concerned about him?" and then oh god the tears. I totally can't breathe through my nose right now. I'm glad he finally left because I must look like the worst swollen train wreck ever.

Stuff

*shameless self-promotion*

I finally broke down and created a Tumblr. The background is boring for now until I figure out what else I want to do with it. I mostly reblog a bunch of Renaissance, Victorian and Rococo costume photos, pictures of cute plushies, and cool architecture. I've only posted a couple of my own photos so far. More to come. But I figure I need some followers or something.

I also realized that I don't think I ever posted the link to my blog. It's about librarians, books, and cute things. I'm really bad at updating so far.

Also, I've become obsessed with ArPakasso and finally devised a way to get me some, thanks to chibi_tenshi. All I ever buy through her is plushies. She's like my plushie crack dealer or something. XD

New Lolita Community

White Rabbit
All right, it's done. You all should probably go check out the new comm I created, lolibrarians. XD

It doesn't have anything too exciting yet, but that's because I need people to join! It's no fun if I'm the only one posting.

Suddenly, LUCKY PACK!

White Rabbit
In case you missed it, I posted pictures of my Lucky Pack from IW on egl.

If I'm friends with you on FB, sorry for the multiple posts you're getting. ^^;
