► l u n a r c y c l e s

• in january, lydia went under the knife & came out with battle scars.
• in february, with scissors & love, i crafted a heart to exchange; we sipped on each other's wine-soaked lips.
• in march, i was practically blissful in the springtime sunshine.
• in april, i ditched my seven-year-old blog because it was haunted.
• in may, i doggie-paddled around a lukewarm pool all alone.
• in june, my mother lost her mind.
• in july, my body reverberated with the live jams of my favourite bands. (nashville was incredible; july was nice, too.)
• in august, i moved into a charming downtown duplex with my lover and my darling familiar.
• in september, stress wore me out and wore me down. i comforted myself with dreamy domesticity.
• in october, i was mad as a hatter.
• in november, all our plans fell through, very suddenly. ❝ i guess it's back to the drawing board.❞
• in december, i descended a downward spiral into a deep depression.
