I'm reading The Magician's Nephew, and researching Narnia. These lyrics came into my head:
Maybe we'll travel by wardrobe
Maybe we'll save the world
Maybe we're meant for something better
Than the things we predict will unfold
I'm the catastrophe
Rising from the boiling sea
My tidal surge or wrath
Floods the homes of sinners
Bow before my act of attrition
I purge the earth
The Golden Calf falls
I scourge the land
Fire consumes the Lambs
Salvation. It's been a long time since I felt my heart breaking with such power. Last night I was invited to church, and against all odds I went. As we sang our praises to the Lord I began to mourn. The pastor spoke the Lord's words, and I was moved to action. At invitation I stood, and I took Kristine by the hand. As I made my way to the wing to pray away from the group I felt the Holy Spirit wash over me and wrap me in his sweet grace. I offered my soul to God, and he accepted me with open arms. The tears cleansed my soul of my sins, making me new, making me good, making me whole.
How did you pick your Vox name? Does it mean something?

My name is kind of a play on words. I wanted a name that would expression my reason for blogging and writing in gerneral. I want to infect people with my writing so I came up with Pendemic and alternative to pandemic.

Strong line of his jaw
A diamond stud in his ear
The curve of his lips
They part slowly, form a smile
-To feel the burn of his skin!
(2)
I knead your fingers
Push forcible into skin
Contrasting colors
Caught up in a red moment
Feelings are likely to flee
(3)
Eyes like burnt pumpkin
Skin like living coal
Hands move expertly
(4)
A discrete affair
Hidden inside bathroom walls
Secure the cheap lock
Heat. The only evidence
And a longing left behind
(5)
It's a graveyard heart
A crowded mausoleum
Love in a casket
Last night was Halloween! I was so excited, but, for the first year ever, I didn't go trick-or-treating or dress up. I feel like I didn't actually celebrate.
So, I went to the cinema to go see Saw III with some friends, but no one had confirmed when I got there. Basically I was sitting around hoping that one of them would show up. I saw someone I knew get in line and buy a ticket, and I asked her if it would be okay if I sat with her and her friends.
She said "Yeah, come on!" and walked inside the cinema.
I bought my ticket, a drink, and some popcorn and followed them into the theater. I got in there and she was like, "Oh, well I didn't know what I was saying. I wasn't really paying attention. We're kind of having a girl's night. So..."
"Well, that's fine. I understand. I just wish you would have told be before I bought the ticket," I said. I got up and went two rows behind them. So I spent my Halloween watching a scary movie alone in the theater. :(
Hopefully next year I'll be in Seattle by Halloween.

I've waited for two months with CRAZY excitment for homecomnig! Last night Mom tells me, "We're going to Tennessee to pick up the stuff we had to leave at the Longest Yard Sale." WHAT THE FUCK?! THAT SHIT HAS BEEN THERE FOR THREE MONTHS! WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN DO WE HAVE TO GO! I have never been that into stupid school dance shit, but now when I have people to go with (and the fucking desire to go) we can't! ARGH!

Rich and filled with soul
Lay hands upon afflicted
I hear, “Salvation.”

Ice covered river
With your frozen limbs and hands
But warm blood beneath
(7)
Oceanic blue-
Maudlin, sad hue so dreary
What’s beneath your depths?
(10)
The steam room is hot
Clouds of sweat and blood pass by
Spirits are broken
(16)
It was a faux paux
Now, it’s cool to wear burlap
But only Prada
