The blossom trees around my house are shedding. It's rather pulchritudinous actually. The sky is overcast; it looks like it's raining white blossom, but the petals are dancing to the ground rather than falling. I feel like I'm trapped in a huge, resplendent snowglobe.
I prefer cherry blossom. We have a cherry blossom tree in the garden but it's only a diddy little thing. It reminds me of the bonsai tree my old martial arts teacher used to have. I adored that bonsai tree. When he kindly ordered me to never ever touch the tiny tree due to the fact that it was over 100 years old I decided that it was the coolest thing on the planet. It had seen over a century for christ's sake! I could practically see the seasons washing past it over the decades and I felt oddly humbled by the mini tree. It was the first time I was ever confronted with my own mortality. That tree is older than I will ever be, and it will probably still be watching the seasons pass long after I'm dead. It's odd how something so small can have such longevity, but just look at Yoda. The dude was 900 years old when he finally kicked the bucket!
Look, I'm being morbid again. I'm not a morbid person really, but I've been reading Harry Potter and I always get depressed around the part where Sirius dies. He was my fav character. Boo.
I love his hair in this picture... is it wrong of me to be attracted to Gary Oldman when every bone in my body is screaming at me that he's an old man????? *sigh*
I'm listening to Der Rosenkavalier, the Trio. The most beautiful music ever concieved of. I think Strauss may have descended from the Ninth Tier himself. But I've had enough of enticingly somber Opera, I think I'll move on to a bit of Nine Inch Nails. I am the definition of eclectic.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Weren't expecting that were ya! Not after me goin' on about cherry blossom and Opera! I felt dirty talking all cultured, I had to put the tone back in it's place with a little YAOI! I'm not a massive fan of Naruto, but I go all wibbly over SasuNaru, and this pic just tugs at me in very intimate places! *nosebleed*
