Random fact:  Last night, at two-thirty in the morning, driving through the surrounding canyon and towns, I passed four burros (in the dark orange groves beside the train tracks) and four coyotes (on a hillside across from a line of apartments). They gazed back at me like I had come to tell them something.

Describe yourself as aesthetic things: an old-fashioned traveling trunk with stickers to places that may or may not actually exist (there are mermaids and old tapestry unicorns and griffins on these); a record player that occasionally doesn’t quite play what it’s supposed to, or plays silently; a gate tied shut with morning-glories so you have to go around; a basket set out among the persimmons for the fairies in which the baubles have turned colors and the fern has dried to gold; moonlight moving quickly over shallow pebbly water; red sequins catching the light on a dark stage; an imaginary tea party someone forgot to clear away; pink lemonade in a tiny glass beside a poetry book that will no longer quite close; that blue color just after the sun’s gone down.

roamingreader said: I just finished Sula on friday! I liked it, though I liked the first half better and I’m not sure how well I connected with it… " iamsnortythevampyr said: ohhhh I love that you guys asked/answered this question. Can I butt in for a minute and say that my favorite novel by Toni Morrison is Sula???

This is when I admit that I haven't read Sula yet! For Christmas, my brother got me every Toni Morrison book I didn't already have; should that one be the next one I read?

Ooooh, so so pretty! Beloved is the only other book I’ve read by her and I loooove it. I haven’t read it since high school though! I am super liking The Bluest Eye! I’m halfway through and fjksdlfjsd her writing is just so lovely :)

Isn't it? Her writing is just so vivid and and almost physically beautiful...

liceham replied to your post: Alright, Darlings. If you want to have an opinion...

It’s Monday - therefore sad.

It makes me sad that no one else knows what tone of voice you probably had in your head when you said this.
