I dug an old blog out of the depths and revamped...
So I guess this blog is moving to another…
But I’m still keeping Romantic Revelry around for quite awhile anyway, simply because 2,000+ posts of my life and things I enjoy(ed) are included here.
But this blog will allow the both of us so much more freedom. You can now reply to these posts without having to go to my ask, and many other things. Not to mention, I CAN FOLLOW YOU ALL!...
The secret of attraction is to love yourself. Attractive people judge neither...

My note: This is pretty much true. As soon as I made a vow to love myself at all times possible (which is now about 95% of the time), I became so open to loving others. I wasn’t afraid anymore to pour out my heart. There were...
I'm considering making another blog.
Because this is just a tumblog extension of Vinyl Sea, and not signed up with its own email address, I’m very limited. I can’t follow people, I can’t edit posts directly from my blog, I have no dashboard on this blog (I just see my posts and if someone likes/reblogs something)…
I have to do all of that on Vinyl Sea, which isn’t personal enough for me sometimes.
But...

Delores has started teaching me Spanish.
She is a wonderful older woman (the mother of my aunt) who we have all nicknamed Ya Ya. She speaks very little English, but we manage to communicate anyway. The kids also translate between English and Spanish when we really can’t get a point across.
Anyway, she is teaching me Spanish a little every day. I know a lot from songs, believe it or not, because I listen to songs with Spanish in...
Today So Far:
Got up late
Got dressed
Watched the rain outside my window
Did this
Plans expected to occur later in the day:
Go shopping with Susie
Possibly go to the Misions show. I was invited earlier today. Still on the fence about it.

Words I Feel Like Sharing.
My aunt Isabel is really great. Since she first moved here ten years ago, she’s always had a magical quality to me. She upholds this now with her own children, too — they think she’s quite literally capable of doing anything and seeing everything they do. (The other day Sophia said during conversation, “But how do you know? Is it because you’re a mommy?” I told...
Today So Far:
Woke up
Got dressed
Went downstairs
Didn’t want breakfast
Made the tiny humans breakfast
Took the tiny humans to their last day of school
Went to the post office
Mailed letters for my uncle
Carried out two huge boxes for my uncle
Arrived in driveway
Struggled to get them out of the backseat
Finally succeeded
Carried boxes inside
Said “Hola!” to Delores, to which she...
Anonymous asked: Are you of Asian descent at all? The photo of you in your extended About Me (which is very pretty, by the way) made me wonder if you were.
Why do people have to be so complicated?
takeastepbackandlove:
To me, honesty is key in all relationships.
I’m probably the most honest person you will ever meet. If I don’t want to hang out with you, I’ll say so. If your hair looks like crap, and you ask me if it looks okay, I’ll probably tell you it doesn’t because I don’t want you to be embarrassed in public. If I like you, I will tell you, in hopes that you like me too. If I lie...
One day you’re gonna want her. That girl that knew...
My dashboard is reading my mind again.

It's amazing how much you care when you wish you...
We're having a dinner party tomorrow.
I’m eating homemade cheese pizza for dinner, and then we’re going to make the tiramisu from scratch so we can refrigerate it until tomorrow’s dinner. Eating this dessert is the only time I consume coffee. It’s so rare that ever have it — it’s been years now — that I don’t mind breaking that rule just once.
We’re also making homemade gnocchi...
saige-sirena asked: I found your response to the anon to be quite interesting, and I found that I agreed on some things. But pardon me if I may share a few of my own. I do this in the search for conversation, not to berate or belittle you. They’re just thoughts.
Photography is important to me, to put it simply. It’s something I’m constantly working on, and an art that I love and yet beat myself up...

This surprises me. Will you explain this in more depth, please?

To The Anon Who Wrote in my Ask Box on Vinyl Sea:
I do not reply to personal asks there. But I know you read this blog based on your message, so I’m briefly going to do so here.
I just wanted to let you know that I honestly accept your apology, whoever you are. A few things upset me about your first message, and I wanted to tell you what they were, in hopes that I can fix them.

I’m sad that you still think that who...

Adele is so damn good.
Life is awesome right now...
So why am I letting one man creep into my thoughts again and again, and temporarily ruin the bliss?
I wish he’d go break someone else’s heart.
In other news, this day has been exhausting.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been genuinely tired by the time I get in bed. However, tonight I have no doubt that I’ll crash quick… which is miserable now (because I’m so tired) but will be heavenly then. Ah, bittersweet.

I'll lay roses at your feet till you decide there...
Today So Far:
Woke up
Ate breakfast
Took the little cousins to school
Came home
Craved these tacos
Proceeded not to make them
And now I am laying in bed, constantly aware of the “broken heart” I’m carrying around in my chest, and continuing to write my post on YOURS for the music blog. Hmmph.
