I’ve just moved to the other end of the country (I practically live in the antartic now… brrr) and lost regular access to the internet. I will be back soon.
I miss tumblr.
For the sake of humanity, and your sense of humour check out The Other Curtis.
It’s around for a good time not a long time.
percepto asked: Hey, I just stumbled across this tumblr and wanted to pass it on to you in case you didn't already know about it:

Omg. I knew bout fuckyeahpandas but it hasn’t been updated in forever.
Thank you for pointing this out. You’ve made my day.
Last lantern parade.
This is how far behind the times where I live is. There are freaking dinosaurs wandering around the shopping centre.
Always this same finicky attention
to detail: the high smears of cloud
obsessively ribbed and textured,
the studied back-lighting, the precise
colouring, as if by numbers,
panther-pink, pool-blue, shade-grey:
a gift, yes but thoughtlessly exquisite,
and far too expensive ever to reciprocate.
Because Mum always said I’d look like my dad if only I had a beard.
Inspired by Melissa and the darling Everly over at dearbaby.
I know, I know. It’s not Sunday anymore, and I missed last weekend’s post. I’ve been having some serious technical difficulties and for that reason this Someone I Love Sunday is going to be a two-for-one. I can already tell I’m going to cry as I write it.
Someone I love; the parents of that little bundle of joy up there, the incredible Matt and Beck.
We met through a local weekly poker game and grew closer due to a mutual love of the game and Curt. Over the past couple of years I have been privileged to spend so many special events with this lovely couple including birthdays, baby showers, meeting the precious little bundle pictured above, there have also been the many times just spending time watching a movie or some t.v together which I cherish just as much. Later this year I will be there watching them exchange their wedding vows and I couldn’t be happier for them both.
These two folks are sweet as honey, hilarious, and just THE most amazing parents. I really admire how loving they have been, both towards me, towards each other and towards their lucky little boy Jacob. He will be so proud to have you as his parents guys!
Saturday night we went to dinner at Beni Hana to say goodbye. I will be moving to the other end of the country soon and it was so sad. I know that I will see them again in October (at the latest) but I can’t help but be sad that I will be that much further from the glow of this loving family.
