It's like this everywhere
breakable,

without fear.

Fingertips stroke the flames,

Fanning the FlameFanning the Flame
It is evening in a college dorm. It is a messy room, with clothes, books, papers, student trappings flung where they were last used by the main character, batousaijin. He is anxiously awaiting someone to come online for an instant message, snickchick, the love of his life who has moved back home to Missouri so that her parents can take care of her while she recovers from a sickness that causes occasional fainting spells, weakness, and pain. Batousaijin spells meticulously. He might be an English-major, or maybe he's trying to diminish the opportunities of snickchick misunderstanding what he means to say. Snickchick doesn't care as much about spelling every word correctly or even using punctuation or capitalization and seems to be a little embarrassed when he misunderstands her meaning (or pretends to, with the arrogance of an English-major). The popup appears saying "snickchick has signed on," and batou

Special Lyrical Feature
It's been a long time since I sat and put one of these together. I love doing it. So without further ado, enjoy the feature set to the lyrics of a song by Jewel.
Morning Song
(Listen to the song here )
Let the phone ring, let's go back to sleep
Let the world spin outside out door, you're the only one that I wanna see
Tell your boss you're sick, hurry, get back in I'm getting cold
Get over here and warm my hands up, boy, it's you they love to hold
And stop thinking about what your sister said
Stop worrying about it, the cat's already been fed
Come on darlin', let's go back to bed
Put the phone machine on hold
Leave the dish
Keep Love Alive
Hello beautiful artists, writers, and photographers. Love you all.
I'm feeling dated. :blushes: Maybe That's because it's been a while since I was on here. :D But hey I'm here today. :woohoo:
I caught up on a bunch of beautiful deviations and thought I'd pay tribute to some of them here.
By the way, if you haven't seen the anime Patema Inverted, it deserves a look-see. So yeah, go look. You're welcome!

A Question and Catch-me-up
Is there a way to purchase a book of my own literature from dA? I like how we can purchase prints of the art, but I wish there was a way to purchase my writing somehow.
Just a thought...
Anyway, it's been FOREVER since I've been active on dA so here's a little catch up on what's been going on with me and keeping me off dA.
*I got a job answering phones from home for a roofer. It disrupts and interrupts me all day long and I'm taken from my world into this other place where I don't necessarily want to be, but hey it's extra money.
*I also have been teaching piano and am going to have a recital themed around Halloween.
*I'm still managing
