time is a winged chariot.

Had we but world enough, and time,
This coyness, Lady, were no crime...
But at my back I always hear
Time's winged chariot hurrying near,
And yonder all before us lie
Deserts of vast eternity.

- Andrew Marvell, 1621 – 1678

But how should I avoid to be her slave,
Whose subtle art invisibly can wreath
My fetters of the very air I breath?

- Andrew Marvell, 1621 – 1678

Note: Please let The Time Traveler's Wife not fail the book. The book was lovely. I won't go so far as to say that it was a literary masterpiece, but it moved me. It moved my rock-hard soul and frozen heart. I have yet to find any other recent book that has had such an effect on me.

Oh wait. Murakami.

Let me correct myself: I have yet to find a not-translated book that has such an effect on me. I've read it twenty times over (or more, but feelings don't measure up like that) and I have never tired of Henry and Clare, just as they have never tired of themselves.

I HATE YOU TECHNOLOGY.

My internet has been on the fritz since Thursday. Or Wednesday, I can't remember.

It works fine (albeit with a few disconnections, read: one or two) when there are no other computers on - but when my brother and father start using the internet it's FRITZ FEST.

It's ANNOYING. The 'net has never been this unstable and it's irritating the hell out of the whole house?

AND APPARENTLY, SOMEHOW, IT'S MY FAULT AGAIN. :\ It's always my fault, or my computer's fault blah blah blah.

I need Tiera in a cup. Like, major essence of BITCH PLEASE right now.
