On vacation with bf in Italy, he's been driving me nuts.

Had a small dinner hours ago. Hang out in apartment, ask him again and again if he's hungry, he said no. Watches me make a girldinner of tomatos, mozzarella, sea salt and olive oil. Fast, simple, easy. hungry, idc, whateverrrr

Sit down, eat my first parcel, he says 'Wait!!' Gets up and starts cutting up.a stale baguette, I tell him its fine, he tell me it'll be worth it.

I wait for longer than it would have taken to eat the meal, too long. He dumps half the fried beguette on my plate, he eats the other half. It was delicious, but I would've been happy with what I made.

He crunches on his fried ends as I type this This is a microcosm of our relationship. love him, he loves me, but it's tiresome.

Chiesa Gran Madre, Torino

The pillars are currently covered due to renovation, they're have images and facts on them for tourists. The biggest, most prominent image right as you walk into this beautiful church is an image of Moloch. Interesting choice

I had 2 hours to make this so I ditched all my perfectionist tendencies; didn't focus on perfect lineart, neat colouring, fancy shading - I just focused on getting the image DONE and I really really enjoyed the process. Shame we were low on toner

The I woke up with this burn on my arm. It was the first thing I felt when I woke up. The skin sloughed off in the shower. There is pain when I touch the surface, but it's just a dull empty tingling. My friend is a nurse, she said it's a second-degree, appears to be thermal.

I've racked my brain thinking of explanations, but I just can't come up with anything. I didn't iron clothes or cook food before bed. I don't sleep next to outlets or anything electrical. I can't think of any way I could have received a friction or chemical burn. And I just find it hard to believe I went to bed without noticing it. Honestly, I'm stumped.

And yes, it's right next to my alien tattoo. So that's fun.

The Problem //

O curly haired gods, hear my prayer! I have succumbed to the chaotic whims of the frizz-tempests. Though I drape my crown in the finest silken bonnet of the night, I wake to find my tresses transformed by spirits unknown - one morn flat and mourning, the next voluminous and wild.

Thy grace has bestowed upon me waves and coils that form with divine clarity in some lands, yet other regions of my scalp remain vague, directionless, and plagued by a static shroud. I beseech thee: how might I banish this fuzz with haste? What holy rituals shall grant me the consistency I crave, that I may walk amongst the mortals with a uniform glory?

I bow before thy knowledge; all tidings and truths thou bestoweth shall be cherished with a grateful heart.
