there will come an answer

writer. dreamer. hot damn mess. I spend most of my time frolicking around the K+B side of the Glee fandom writing (check out my links yo), but I also have a thing for reading SPN fics. Neat. Previously: andersquirt var sc_project=10336658; var sc_invisible=1; var sc_security="b02b3132"; var scJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?

I feel like I’m calling out into the void just looking at how quiet it is here, but I’ve had such an undeniable urge to just come look around. Call it nostalgia, maybe. I’ve had a writing itch, too, that I keep trying to scratch but find myself staring at blank word docs; maybe that’s part of what drew me back here. I’ve been thinking back on just how much I loved this community, and I don’t really know what I expected coming back, but it feels like looking down a street of formerly vibrant shops where you knew everyone and their rhythms, and now it’s mostly boarded over windows and doors. I’m happy to see a few places with the lights still on. 

I married the cute rower. We now live in a cute house and have a (very) cute toddler. Life is very, very good. I hope you’re all well. I hope you’re all happy. If not, I’m sending some positive vibrations your way.

Love you. Miss you.

Watching my toddler figure out how to language is fascinating. Yesterday we were stumped when he kept insisting there was a “Lego winner” behind his bookshelf - it turned out to be a little Lego trophy cup. Not knowing the word for “trophy”, he’d extrapolated a word for “thing you can win”. And then, just now, he held up his empty milk container and said, “Mummy? It’s not rubbish. It’s allowed to be a bottle.” - meaning, effectively, “I want this. Don’t throw it away.” But to an adult ear, there’s something quite lovely about “it’s allowed to be a bottle,” as if we’re acknowledging that the object is entitled to keep its title even in the absence of the original function.

Another good post to read for those writing small human characters.

*scuffs foot awkwardly on floor* hey, all. it’s been awhile, I know. I’ve settled into my job; I see children learn to communicate, I watch families grow closer because of it; I laugh every single day even when the day is a tough one. I am head over heels crazy about cute rower turned cute boyfriend. I am loved and cherished and, for the very first time, have a man in my life who can truly be my rock when I need it and god do I adore that handsome man.  I am financially okay. I still skip meals and do the occasional load of laundry in the tub when I want to put my money toward cocktails and shoes. I still have some very rough days and I get a lump in my throat when I think about all of these good things and how afraid I am they’ll all come crashing down, but I am working on focusing on the good.

I write here and there, I have a project I’m getting a little excited about. I still drink more than I should, stress over things that do not require stressing. I am assertive. I’m taking care of my body. 

Really what I’m trying to say is I am content, and that’s not something I am very often. I miss you all, so come say hey if you’re around.

The fact that nobody is talking about Secret’s new commercials pisses me off

[softwhorecore-deactivated201812]

This makes me so happy ☺️

[digenovanicolo]

This is such a wonderful mlm movie scene. so pure. so wonderful. 

[digenovanicolo]

Seriously this scene has it all. Non stereotypical and non sexualised mlm, a genuinely sweet proposal, and supportive friends. A+ Bad Neighbours 2

[andercas]

last night I went to a friend’s wedding. Guy I used to hookup with was also there and tried to kiss me, at which point I told him I was seeing someone and didn’t want to confuse things. He was polite about it but then at the reception, after I caught the bouquet and was sitting at our table, he suddenly goes “you are gorgeous and sexy and funny and you can talk to literally anyone--like you seem like the kind of girl guys dream about, but you are so fucking cold and intimidating I have a hard time imagining you ever getting to this point with anyone.”

Thanks, asshole.

okay, so I’m cool with skinny, smaller guys but I’ve got a thing for big like football-player sized guys. I like the weight of them and how strong and just solid they are. One of my new-ish friends happens to be one such 6′ 3″ former-rower guy (his ARMS omg) and after wondering for approx 2 months if he was into me, we finally hooked up last night and then we laid in bed today for literally 6 hours just cuddling and making out and talking and ugh SO GOOD.

Now Available: “With or Without You” by Zane Riley

His future. What a thing to imagine himself with after so many years of one day at a time.

Summary

In the much-anticipated sequel to Go Your Own Way, high school seniors Lennox McAvoy and Will Osborne pick up right where they left off—navigating the tumultuous waters of a new relationship and dealing with Will’s disapproving father.

When a violent incident forces Lennox to give up his independent ways, he must come to terms with his past just as Will is grappling with his future. As Will’s college plans become reality, will Lennox have the courage to go after the opportunities he doesn’t think he deserves?
