Shaking off the ashes…

I finally made it back to Hollywood Cemetery this morning. If you have been around here more than a minute, you know that it is my current favorite cemetery outside of my own. Every time I go there, I feel like my soul was needing to visit. That place exudes beauty and calm on aContinue reading “Shaking off the ashes…”

Cleanliness is next to gothliness…

Welcome back to the cemetery, my lovelies! I am writing this from my newly redecorated goth nook. I spent all day yesterday (literally about eleven hours) rearranging furniture, building a new shelf, hanging artwork, reorganizing, and generally just exploding my goth touch all over everything in my little creepy space. I feel so cozy andContinue reading “Cleanliness is next to gothliness…”

Just call me Jezebel…

Welcome back to the cemetery, my lovelies! Today, I am lost in delicious contemplation of the book I am currently devouring. It is a deep dive into the psychology behind the creation of the Dracula novel: Yes, I am still reading it. Finding time to sit and focus on reading has proven difficult these lastContinue reading “Just call me Jezebel…”

Your dark scent perfumes every inch of me. I once breathed your exhalations, Wishing I could hold them inside meContinue reading “Welcoming the muse…”

A picture is worth a thousand words, or a few swear words and three hours of my Sunday…

Welcome back to the cemetery, my lovelies! Today, your beloved Twisted Libra decided to move forward with an upgrade to the online portrait gallery. The previous version just held static images; you couldn’t enlarge, and they were not watermarked. I chose to set up a Google photo album and link it to the website. EasyContinue reading “A picture is worth a thousand words, or a few swear words and three hours of my Sunday…”

The fallacy of normality…

Since my knee surgery last week, I have been dwelling on the concept of “normal.” People keep talking about my return to normal in regards to my mobility. I am healing quite well, but this journey has taught me that everyone has their own internal concept of how things should be. I doubt I willContinue reading “The fallacy of normality…”

On the mend…

Your beloved Twisted Libra has been maimed. Part of me is forever removed. My suffering has been long and painful. Okay, perhaps I am being just a tad dramatic. I had knee surgery. My ortho doc removed damaged cartilage and several bone spurs. Recovery has been painful, yes, but I seem to be progressing nicely.Continue reading “On the mend…”

A blog is a terrible thing to waste…

Hello, my lovelies. I apologize for the extended absence. Your adorable Twisted Libra has had quite a few matters requiring my attention as of late. However, I find myself free and full of thought on this dreary Saturday morning. I do tend to thrive in dreary weather. Of course, as I currently reside in theContinue reading “A blog is a terrible thing to waste…”
