levels

so i got rid of my puff today.  got to thinking as hairs fell from my head, about puff levels and suck levels and how it would be great if reducing the causes were as easy.

i keep hearing though, that any cause which is worthy, is worthy of the work it takes, and it's true.  be it my situation or my attitude about it, i...we have to work.  reminders help, and being able to look in the mirror, or feel my hair not react, might be a good start.

maybe it's just how much Harry Potter has been on my mind recently, but these words hold very true in his story...

the most obvious ways are with the Marauders.  as part of the first Order, they all took untold steps against the Death Eaters.  James is mentioned in the prophecy to have defied the Dark Lord three times.  and again, in the…

death, family that may not technically be, and me

so i recently had a family member die.  BEFORE YOU START TYPING YOUR SYMPATHIES please keep reading.  again, this last week i've been thinking about death.  you see, i don't mourn.  sure, wherever we go from here, death is always tragic.  i don't care if one goes peacefully, or the worst pain, at 9 or 90.  death sucks.

for years though, i've felt more sympathetic pain for my friends and family than over my own loss.

 

also to be fair, 'family member' may…
