Graveyard Dirt: Two Worlds and In-between

For Whom the Bell Tolls

The following post ventures into "OLD NOTES" territory. In this particular case it's a copy and paste job from an old livejournal entry from April 3rd, 2008 (although the events that took place pre-date the writing; actual date of said events would have been April 2nd, 2008 (i.e., 2008 Easter Wedding)).

LOLOLOLOL! WAIT, BEFORE I FORGET BECAUSE I NEED TO TAKE A SHOWER --

-- YOU KNOW THAT CITY IN WISCONSIN WHERE THAT CHURCH EXPLODED A FEW HOURS BACK (NEWS ARTICLE LINK HERE!)? THAT'S THE HOMETOWN OF MY EX-BOYFRIEND; THE GUY WHO I WAS "INVOLVED" WITH BEFORE ITALICS. (It was one of those rites of passage affairs that happened when I was 14 or 15. One of those embarrassing, eye-rolling "OH, WOW, YOU TOUCHING MY NIPPLES IS SO -NOT- EROTIC AT ALL...HOW DISAPPOINTING...FOR ME." affairs that really shouldn't have any weight in my life at all if it weren't for the fact I hooked up with Italics almost immediately after and we've been ever together since.)

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

(Why is this so wonderfully LOLERIFIC? ALL OF THIS HAPPENED ON THE DAY ITALICS AND I RENEWED OUR WEDDING VOWS. (I LIKE TO THINK OF IT AS A "LOL!" WEDDING GIFT FROM THE UNIVERSE.))

"On April 2, 2008, a gas line exploded just west of downtown, destroying the First Baptist Church on West Wisconsin Avenue. The church, which was first built in 1910, was completely destroyed, except for the frame of its bell tower. The cause of the explosion is unknown, but utility work was being done on Wisconsin Avenue in preparation for reconstruction of the street's entire length through downtown."

AWESOME.
