thomas and shawnté

at the criminally beautiful, surprisingly historical cascades park in monterey park.

shawnté in a fast german car.

frailty, by any other name, etc.

She is mine own,
And I as rich in having such a jewel
As twenty seas, if all their sand were pearl,
The water nectar, and the rocks pure gold.
~Wm. Shakespeare

election day

the music accompanying the major news stations' coverage of election night sounds at once sad and victorious.  the soundtrack of the homecoming from a bloody war.  a bloody expensive war.
