Eddie Cibrian's Dimples

Because c'mon! Shame on Invasion's slowburn peril for not providing them a more frequent showcase.

Wentworth Miller

He's my boyfriend. He is. No, he just is. He's all green-eyed, widow's-peaked, melting-pot hotness and oiled-massage voice. He's it.

That About Sums Me Up

Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind.
Because your lover threw wild hands toward the sky
And the affrighted steed ran on alone,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

Hoarse, booming drums of the regiment,
Little souls who thirst for fight,
These men were born to drill and die.
The unexplained glory flies above them,
Great is the battle-god, great, and his kingdom --
A field where a thousand corpses lie.

Do not weep, babe, for war is kind.
Because your father tumbled in the yellow trenches,
Raged at his breast, gulped and died,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

Swift blazing flag of the regiment,
Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.

Mother whose heart hung humble as a button
On the bright splendid shroud of your son,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

-- Stephen Crane

Fotoblog for a Day

I should have been more specific when praying to the Sanitation gods for drainage for Kenmore Avenue. I forgot to ask for drainage that, ya know, drained. My bad.

What's a girl who's freaking the hell out about the election to do with herself while trying to avoid the returns? Try a new hair color! (Scary, eh? I'm political and a girl all of a sudden.) Henry at Image Showcase Hair Studio rules the school.

What's a girl to do next? A picture's worth a thousand words, yo.
