sunday mornings in libraries. sunday afternoons in cafes. nights spent face down listening to white noise. swing dresses dried flowers and a pink sofa. ink stains and squids and messy hair. records on repeat. joan didion and middlemarch. words clutched so tightly they might as well be heartbeats. bad temperedness to boot. and a skirt worn like a flag

Where were you before Sydney?
I like that graffiti/mural...for some reason it makes me think of Dr. Seuss trufula trees.
Oh my gosh, how could anyone ever tell you that you failed?! Spending six months traveling Europe is incredible and personal. I can imagine it maybe feels a little sad if it's been exactly a yeear? It's been exactly a year since I broke up with my boyfriend, and weird sad feelings I'd forgotten about seem to come out of nowhere. Just because it's a year, I think.
I'm so glad you loved That Mad Ache! I haven't read anything else by her (and if I did I don't remember), so I can't compare, but I loved that book so much.
I am not sharing the project yet only because I hate sharing anything until it is finished! My blog shyness is a whole other thing, where I just get shy about writing about my life in general. I think I get scared of boring people or sounding self-indulgent. Other times, I don't care at all. It's strange!
