Sitting in the car, driving through England, wearing a blue dress, crafted by my mother’s hand, with a large white petticoat under it. Next to me is my well worn copy of The Secret History and my red sun-glasses, which match the 1950s-teen-on-summer-vacation picture that I’m already displaying. A bag full of 19th century sheet music sits next to me as well, along with my purse—my mother’s, a vintage faux-Prada bag bought in the gleaming time of New York in the 1990s. There’s a haze over the sea today, a grey, thick, foreboding fog that clouds the sea so completely in places one could simply step into the sea unintentionally. The heat rises drowsily from the grey pavement, and cars slip by with a whoosh of air, busy with their own lives. A white rose, healthy and deeply in bloom, 3.50 at the shop, keeps me company. The afternoon drifts by sleepily, and I feel as though I shall never run out of time to live. The summer stretches on down the road and out of sight.

He’s so awful and terrible and wretched and I feel terrible for him and I’m so curious about him

Sometimes I think how the death of the farmer's could be easly read as Henry's future getting shattered. Henry, who wanted a farm, somewhere to live silently, who enjoy gardening, and possibly just wanted a quiet life as a farmer, killed a farmer, which could be seen as killing his future.

Not to sound too angsty, but there’s so much I miss

i don’t think people understand how much of life is grief. not just people dying, but losing the version of yourself you thought you’d become. grieving the city you had to leave. the friends you lost not in argument, but in silence. the summer that will never come back. the feeling that maybe you peaked at 12 when you were reading books under the covers and believing in forever

Reblogging this for anyone who, like me, has a complete intolerance for heat

Hot weather tip but fill up your water bottles halfway, freeze it on its side then when you leave, you fill the rest of the bottle with tap water so you'll have refreshing ice water rather than waiting for a full frozen bottle of water to melt.

No information is too far. If you’re willing to share it I’m willing to listen

I have no concept of tmi you should tell me everything
