Really, It's Like We're Made Out of Velcro

24. Filipinoporean. Not enough range to be a singer, or songs to be a songwriter. But I can roll over you!

Most of what's written here, unless otherwise stated and unless otherwise (and very obviously) re-blogged, is original content.

I prefer to write important stuff on my LJ and my website: http://www.shewearswoolf.com/words.

Currently reading: Across the Universe by Beth Revis. I’m quite over the Young Adult (YA) ya-ya-yakking (sorry KD) but I was lured because of 1) the genre of the story and 2) because it’s one of my favorite Beatles’ songs covered (yes, the version by Fiona Apple).

How nice it is, really, when a woman decides to, as they say, keep hope alive.

I’ve been quite obsessed with Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451. It has recently come to my attention that there is a graphic novel with the author’s stamp of approval and one of these days when I take a trip down to the bookstore (with money and with Tof, who loves books as much as I do), will Mechanical-Hound for it! See what I did there?  
Tim Hamilton’s work on the graphic novel is so beautiful and while I can’t claim to be a graphic novel über geek, it was so easy to visualize the book while reading that I had hoped it had already been illustrated, for my greedy eyes to feast on.
It is ironic to note that my own copy, which I bought from a thrift bookstore, has pages 83-84 torn, by a smart kid trying to be funny, or someone not funny at all. Even though I’ve found a way to read pages 83-84, I resent the culprit.

6. To See The Sea

Continued from Act V. Lulu is standing in front of the ocean.
Lulu: Now I must find others who are, like me, pirates journeying from place to place, who knowing only change and the true responsibilities that come from such knowing sing to and with each other.
Now I’m going to travel.
