Cloths of Heaven

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

~ William Butler Yeats (1865 ~ 1939)

In other news, I actually wanted to draw a picture for the Witcher art contest... But I saw it too late... haha... so... lol...

Just patched my Witcher to Enhanced Edition! So I am replaying it now!! Eagerly awaiting "Blood of Elves" by Andrzej Sapkowski!!

More news, my fracture hand is still troubling me quite abit... have to do alot of stuff left handedly... Although I still can draw, but I do not have as much strength or precision now...

Just for your info, I fractured my master hand last month.

And twisted my knee a couple of weeks ago.

But I get by.

I've never talked about this before, but I really need the boards advice on what could be a crucial decision. I’ve suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me.

The usual signs… Phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up.
My wife has been going out with the girls a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says, “Just some friends from work, you don’t know them.”

I always stay awake to look out for her taxi coming home, but she always walks down the drive. Although I can hear a car driving off, as if she has gotten out of the car round the corner. Why? Maybe she wasn’t in a taxi?

I once picked her cell phone up just to see what time it was and she went berserk and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and why was I checking up on her.

Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife I think deep down I just didn’t want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her.

I decided I was going to park my motorcycle next to the garage and then hide behind it so I could get a good view of the whole street when she came home. It was at that moment, crouching behind my bike , that I noticed that the valve covers on my engine seemed to be leaking a little oil.

Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the dealer?

It takes
a minute to have a crush on someone
an hour to like someone and
a day to love someone

but it takes
a lifetime to forget someone
