Has anyone here ever eaten rose petals? They are quite good. That’s one of the best things about living in California, San Jose particularly, the rose bloom from late February through September.
We have some many rose bushes in our neighborhood. I like to walk Scruffy and just pick and choose petals as I please. I only eat one at a time, savoring each pitter tang and burst of sweetness.
Since there is such a selection, I can afford to be picky when I go perusing. I try to avoid roses treated with pesticides. Bugs can just be brushed off but chemicals get into your body and do funny things when you’re not looking. Also, the petals are at their sweetest right after the plant has been watered and the petals are full and spongy. You have to pluck them in such a way that you get the ENTIRE petal, because the best part is in the base. I like to bite into that first and lest the juice flow over my tongue and seep into my cheeks and thought as I bliss out to natures glory. I prefer the white blooms to the red ones for their purity of taste; there is no bitter red pigment to get in the way of the taste of growing things and the undertones on nectar and life.
There is this romantic misconception that making love on a bed of rose petals is somehow romantic. Just think of all the crushed and beaten rose petals everywhere! What a waste! if my lover loved me, they would bring me roses in bed, and we would lie together and feed each other the fruits of the sun till we couldn't eat another one and then we would set the remnants of the bloom in blow of water to soak in the perfumes and spread the vapors around the room as we steam it up.
The say that if you love her, show it with roses, but store bought roses just aren't the same. They are dead and dry and taste of tears. Give me a hearty full bloom whose petals are all but falling off, her heart exposed for all to see, welcoming in the sun.

well, it's seems i have completly fucked up my life. joy. working on it, but hell, when grades come out i'll be suprised if i don't get smaked. ayame, don't blame yourself if i have been a bit... distant lately. i'm just trying to deal right now. and i feel like shit. shittyshit. i am feeling really crappy, and don't know. there is some major shit going through my head. im not really sure how to cope with it now, but i'll figure it out. somehow. i should probably tell mom and dads now. i got rid of all my manga, comics, and all my books that i got from chritmas and never got to read. i am attempting to quit fafiction cold turky. that is going to be the hard part... i have also goten rid of all my webcomics, and i've allready been neglecting deviant art. now if i can keep myself sane, i might be able to get through this. i hope. shit....

BTW, i'm cleaning out here on my site... i might come back at some latter point, but that is uncertian. i'm going to leave my work up though, but the entire acount might come down at some point, i don't know. w/e

i like hats. infact, i love hats. if i could, would where a hat all the time, i just need to find the right one.... i wouldn't care if it didn't go with any of my clothes or if i had a purpetual case of hat hair, hats just rock. *sigh* if only i had a little hat of my own insted of stealing them from radom passerbys....

neways, i am reading angst fics and loving it, beacuse it's putting my life into perspective. i mean, if haku has to put up with being but raped by his father and people his father sells him out to, then i should be able to put up with a little heartbreak, ne?
i have also taken a likeing to listening to trance music in my room alone with my dad's black cowoy hat on. if anyone knows a place where i can fuel my growing addiction i would be much obliged. i wont turn down any good drum&bass either...
as for art, all the peices i've been doing lately have been too big for my scanner, so i either have to ask to photo graph them for me or wait untill spring when all my work is going to be photographed for my AP studio art test submisions
I've been hanging out with ayame and a mutial friend latly, but i've been tierd and moppy... i dont know why... i just have....
i guess there could be several reasons, but most of them just feel like i'm trying to name something that has and want's no name....

sorry ayame for not being that plesant, i should try and cheer up, but i'm just not feeling it latly. sorry for brining you guys down today... i hope this is just a little slump i'll get out of in a couple of days...
