Well, what exactly happened? I guess in the long run, it doesn't really matter, does it?
I liked the image and knew I could work with it, but went into the caption creation with just the thought of, "The first day of school is going to be MUCH different this year!" but with no real plan on how to get there.
And the WHY? of how he became Eva wasn't really that much of a concern to me. I was much more interested in the adversity he overcame AFTER the calamity that befell him. And of course, for most of the readers here on my blog, those details are delicious in a different sort of way .. everyone here also wants a happy ending, amirite? Of course we all do!
I like the first sentence because it gives it a quick little spin that hopefully makes the reader think about how it did happen, even though it's not the slightest bit necessary for the understanding of the caption, but hopefully it gives us all a bit of buy-in.
And as I've recently re-watched the Three Amigos, I figured I'd slip in the word "plethora" just because I can. It's too bad the model wasn't holding a sweater as I could have added that in too! Ohhhh, it's a sweater!
I'll be around here and there through the rest of the week. It's the 5th anniversary of my forever person's passing, so I wanted to get this posted so I wouldn't have to worry about producing something else. I'm really winging it when it comes to how I'm going to grieve this year. I'm going to just let it come to me, and I'll take it however it decides to manifest. I have friends, family and my current girlfriend as big allies in case I need their assistance, but they also know that I may want to be alone too.
So please do me a favor .. when you see or talk to loved ones .. let them know you love them and cherish the time you spend with them. It means so much for them to hear it, because your time together is not promised.
I love you all! Stay freaky my friends!
I'm sorry for your loss. You may find you won't plan it, but memories may come as they will. I lost my best friend this month. The last few days I have been wearing an anklet she made for me. Hadn't worn it in a long time, but.... now I am. Both modes
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear that Fiona. That's so sweet that you have something tangible (besides your memories) to remember her by. Hugs to you!
