Romano x Reader: More Than Anything...Part 1You sighed as you stared off into space out your bedroom window. There was something on your mind. It was just eating away at every inch of your brain like a parasite and the stress of it all was spreading through you like an infection.You hated feeling this way
you had never felt so achy in your chest in your life. It was for a good reason though
.In three days there was going to be a big party where all the countries would be. Each person was supposed to bring a partner along and almost everyone had a partner at this point
.except for you.You couldn't exactly complain about the whole "being asked" thing. You had been asked out by Lithuania, Poland, France, China, and Russia
.and you had rejected them all. Why? It was simple. You wanted to be asked by a specific person
the one you had feelings for
the one you had been friends with since before you could even remember
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback:"Such a pretty day
" you said in your
Romano x Reader: More Than Anything...Part 4As you laid in your bed staring at the ceiling, you could hardly believe it; you had been married to Romano for over two years now. Everything had been going well with you and you were a happy couple
but right now you were fed up.No; you weren't fed up with Romano. You were fed up with bed rest.Looking down at your stomach however, you still managed to smile as you rubbed it affectionately. You giggled when you felt the little life inside kick against the palm of your hand. Yes
you were now eight months pregnant.You remembered how it all happened. You had been married for about one and a half years and Romano was going through a very rough time. One day while he was out, you decided to surprise him with a really nice dinner when he got home. And so that's just what you did and though he didn't act all romantic about it, he was very happy that you'd done that for him
or at least that's what you thought. You hadn't been sure at the time because he just sat there rather
Romano x Reader: More Than Anything...Part 2At your house you were waiting anxiously for Romano
it was finally the day of the party and you were so excited but so nervous at the same time. You were so wound up in fact, that when Romano knocked at the door, you jumped a bit."Coming!" you called, rushing to the door.Your eyes widened and you blushed at the sight before you
Here was your friend Romano, well more recently your boyfriend, dressed up in a black tuxedo with a dark red undershirt
..he looked perfect
like a model
In the meantime, Romano couldn't take his eyes off you either. You had worn your hair in just the right way to flatter your face and your makeup complemented everything about you perfectly.Your dress flowed all the way down to (place) and the color and cut of it was brilliant on you
you looked perfect
so how are you?" you said finally."What? Oh
fine." Romano said shifting his eyes to the side.You smiled at how cute his face looks. "You're all pouty faced
America x Reader: I'll Never Leave You"Aaagh! Sit down already, America!" England shouted."I am the hero!!!" America shouted, giving a thumbs up.Almost everyone in the World Conference room groaned, facepalmed, or just set there looking at him like he was an idiot...you didn't though. You actually giggled and smiled. Alfred was one of your closest friends and you had been friends with him since before you could even remember.Looking at him being a loudmouth, trying to talk and eat at the same time, and smiling like an idiot, brought back so many childhood memories for you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback:"Come on ______! It's only a little bit farther!" A small ten year old Alfred said enthusiastically as he held your hand and tugged you along."Alfie, where are we going?" you asked, blinking a few times."I told you that it's a surprise!" he laughed, still pulling you forward.You just smiled at him. He was so silly and adventurous
"Britain is going to be very angry that we ran off without telling him." You said,
Romano x Reader: More Than Anything...Part 3 T"
?" Romano said finally.You blushed madly and could say nothing.Romano suddenly blushed too. "H-hey if you're saying this because you think it's going to make me happy or something then don't!" he shouted, waving his hands in front of his body."No! I-it's not that
" you began. "I
I'm telling you this because I love you and
and I want it. I'm telling you because I want to give myself to you!"Romano stood still for a moment along with you
but only for a moment. You gasped when Romano tugged you into his arms and immediately latched his mouth to yours. Your gasp had worked in his favor as well as he immediately moved his tongue into your mouth to join yours in a fiery, passionate dance.You thought you'd be shyer than you were now but instead you wound your arms around his neck and pressed your body into his. You couldn't believe it
this was really happening with Romano
you loved him so much and you wanted this

America x Reader: Romantic SummerYou were so excited about today. Your summer had unfortunately been rather uneventful, but today you were going to the beach with a ton of your friends
and most importantly
.Alfred.You had been friends with Alfred for some time now and though you weren't even sure how it happened, you had managed to fall for him. His charming eyes, adorable smile and laugh, cheerful and carefree nature, and
.well everything! Everything about Alfred F. Jones was what you had been looking for in a guy your entire life.Grabbing the last of your things and throwing them into your bag, you took off for the beach.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Getting out of your car and heading for the dunes, you were honestly a bit worried. You hadn't picked out an exact meeting spot with all your friends so you were hoping you could find them."____________!" a familiar voice called.Your whole body lit up
that was the voice that warmed you inside and out."Hey Alfred!" you called back, turning around just i
America x Reader: I'll Never Leave You...Part 6"Morning already?" you half sighed, half groaned as you felt soft sunlight shining over your closed eyelids. You could hear the morning birds chirping and the sounds of the world waking up.Taking a deep breath you sat up and yawned, stretching your arms. "Hmmmnn
" you sighed. "I don't usually get up this early
" smiling to yourself you allowed a small giggled to escape your lips. "Alfie was so sweet yesterday; I'll make him a nice breakfast to reward him and then I can take him out to do something he likes."Climbing out of bed, you didn't bother to change into your day clothes just yet and only brushed your hair. You weren't going anywhere after all so why did it matter what you were wearing? Alfred didn't care either so it was actually kind of nice."I'll do chocolate chip pancakes, sausage, and fried eggs." You mused. "He can pick out what he wants to drink."You hummed to yourself as you prepared the food, smiling to yourself at the mere thought of Alfred tearing apart t
America x Reader: I'll Never Leave You...Part 4Three weeks; that's how long it had been now since you started your new life with Alfred. He was still the same; possessing the nature of a mere child and showed no signs of changing anytime soon.You smiled to yourself as you flipped over the French toast you were working on. Even though he still hadn't reverted back to his adult-minded state, he had definitely improved quite a bit over the three weeks in his behavior. You were able to let him take a shower by himself now, and after you placed a nightlight in the hallway, he was able to go to the bathroom without having you come with him. Now, he was even able to help you cook just a little bit."I hope Alfred likes what I'm making." You said to yourself, placing some bacon into a hot frying pan. "I really want him to have something special for how good he's been."You were just about to start making scrambled eggs when you heard Alfred cry out your name from his room."Alfred!" you panicked, quickly turning off the burners and rushin
America x Reader: I'll Never Leave You...Part 2'He should be here in ten minutes' you thought to yourself as you waited for you boyfriend Alfred.Today was your six month anniversary, and you were both looking forward to your special date but also very anxious. You were going to have to confront Alfred about something you'd been having a problem with.The problem was something that had given you minor concern from the beginning; his level of seriousness. You truly loved Alfred for who he was and were happy with him but
there were times when you wished he would get serious; sometimes it felt like your relationship was too shallow because of how erratic he could be. There were times when you tried to set the mood to have a serious conversation with him and he would totally ruin it by telling a joke. On other occasions you would tell him that you loved him and you would get a "Love ya too babe!" or "You too, _________!". You knew that he loved you
you did
but you needed to hear the words on occasion; you needed to know
Romano X Reader- Words and DreamsDisclaimer: I don't own Hetalia or you or much else actually
You breathed in the warm air and enjoyed the sunshine as you took a walk around Rome. You were happy to be able to call the ever beautiful, yet occasionally troublesome, city your home.It had been about four years since you moved to the city in order to attend a college you had been eyeing for quite some time. Four years since you made quite a radical change in your life. It had also been four years since you met a very interesting character...******You were shopping for groceries when you saw him."Him" referred to a rather handsome young man who was purchasing tomatoes at the outdoor market, just a few feet away from you. He had dark brown hair, with an odd curl sticking out, and brown eyes. He was talking with the vendor in rapid-fire Italian. You hadn't gotten a firm grasp of the language but you figured he was haggling down the price of the tomatoes."He must really love tomatoes if he's buying that many," yo
Romano X Reader: StormIt was a case of a great day gone bad. You were visiting your best friend/crush Romano for the weekend while your parents were out on vacation. So far the two of you had been having a good time. However, once evening hit everything seemed to change.Romano had just gone out to pick up some things for dinner telling you he would be back soon. He asked you if you wanted to go, but you didn't feel like shopping so you told him you would stay.It had only been about ten minutes when it started to rain. You walked up to the window and took a look outside at the front yard. The rain was coming down rather hard and the clouds were a dark gray color. You recognized them as thunder clouds and you began to worry a bit. Not a second later there was a flash of lightning followed by a low rumble. You backed away from the window and took a seat on the couch. Bringing your legs up you wrapped your arms around them and hoped that either the storm would go fast or Romano would come back really soon. An
Romano x Reader-BabysitterYour heart was beating wildly as the guy you have been crushing on for MONTHS was coming to meet you alone. No joke or anything. He actually agreed to meet you alone. Your patience FINALLY paid off for one thing
Out of a billion other things that have yet to be praised. You pace nervously back and forth around the gazebo, still no sign of him. You had your fingers crossed praying extremely hard this was going to happen."Hey, ________!" You turned your head and the star hockey player, Alex Tuner was running up to you. He was tall, handsome, like angels had painted his face, had soft golden hair and dazzling hazel eyes. You were on somewhat friendly terms with him although you didn't hang out very often as he was a year older than you and preferred to hang with his friends that moved on to the next grade."Alex. Glad you came." You gave a warm smile. "Listen, there's something I want to ask you
""Oh really? Cause there's something I want to ask you too." His smile was fading
Romano x ReaderRomano x Reader Warning: Contains Language."Well, I don't believe that everyone loves your brother more than you." You said as you fiddled with the hem of your dress; swinging your eight year old legs back and forth as you sat on a bench in the park with your best friend, Lovino Vargas."Oh yeah?" retorted Lovino, "Then why does everyone like my stupid fratello?!" He grunted before staring at the grass beneath him, his face pulled into a childish pout. "Not everyone. Trust me Lovi." you said quietly. Lovino glared at your usage of his nickname but he ignored it by saying nothing. You took this as a chance to continue, "You know, there's this girl that I know.""Yeah?""She really, really likes you. And by like I mean 'Like-like' you know what I'm saying?" Lovino blushed before feining boredom, obviously trying not to show his interest. He nodded before waiting for you to continue,"She really does Lovi! With all her heart! More than you even know!! She always supports you
Romano X Reader - Wake Up CurlRomano X Reader Wake Up Curl"Looviiiinoooooo~~"You approach the Italian's bed slowly, singing out his name in an attempt to wake him up. It doesn't work."Hmph," you look down at Lovino and smile at how sweet he looks when he's asleep. Today he's sleeping so deeply that he hardly even stirs when you shake his shoulder."Loviiii! Come on! It's already midday and you said we could go to the park together," you whine, sitting next to him on his warm bed and feeling the sun's heat shining in through his window. It was a gorgeous day outside and if it weren't for your horrible sense of direction, you'd already be out soaking up the sunshine, maybe eating ice-cream or drinking an ice-cold milkshake
these thoughts make your mouth water and you really begin to notice the uncomfortable level of heat within the confines of Lovino's house. Outside, there's a nice spring breeze
while in here, there's just a sticky humidity that's driving you insane.You shake your Italian friend
Laugh Maker - Romano x Reader (Request)Laugh Maker - Romano x Reader(Request)You quickened your pace as you saw Lovino's house approaching. On your way here, you received many odd glances from people who saw you speed walking and mumbling 'what does it do?' It was a question had burned itself in the back of your mind for so long that you couldn't take it anymore. Lovino was either going to answer the question or die.You raced up the steps to his house and almost broke the door bell."Damn it I'm coming!" His voice growled from the other side. The door swung open and you charged. He was vulnerable so you pinned him down by his shoulders and straddled his waist. There was no way he was getting out of this one without telling you what you needed to hear."W-What the heck ,(N-Name)!" Romano shouted. You were too in the moment to care about what he thought right now."What does it do?!" You screamed in his face. His face read 'What the hell are you talking about?'."What?""What does it do?!" After screaming into hi
RomanoXReader - Tomato Bath~*RomanoXReader*~Tomato Bath"Effing skunk..." the Italian man cursed as he slowly dipped himself into the bath of tomato juice.Standing in the garage, you chuckled as you remembered what had happened earlier that day.---Flash back---Sitting on a hillside, you and Romano where out just passing time, enjoying each others company. Having been friends for quite some time now, hanging out like this was the norm for the both of you.You had been peacefully listening to his ramblings about 'that Spain jerk', 'that potato freak', and 'my retard of a brother', to put certain words lightly. The way he spoke with that Italian accent always put you into a light trance. You loved hearing the occasional rolling of the letter 'R' when he talked. You loved that when he spoke, he used subtle body motions to give more 'depth' into what he is saying. You loved watching that one piece of hair that was to stubborn to stay down, bob as he moved. Small things lik
Romano X Reader: Ti amo, BellaYou stood alone, off to the side of the dance floor, people watching. You were a relatively new country, and for the most part the other countries ignored you. It wasn't as if you were lonely or anything-or so you told yourself to keep from crying. However it would be nice to have someone to talk to for a while. But you refused to dwell on that. You simply continued to watch the other countries as they enjoyed the party.Watching the others smile and laugh and talk made you feel less alone, and brought a small, sad smile to your face. You watched as England tried to get America to behave like a gentleman, though how England figured strangling your ally was gentleman-like you would never know. Germany was yelling at his brother, Prussia, for getting drunk and then beaten up by Hungary. And off in one corner there were the Italy brothers; Italy was saying something to Romano, who simply started yelling in response. You chuckled. That was so like Romano. Your gaze turned fond as you watch
Because - Romano x ReaderRomano x ReaderBecause♥Warning!

Which had been, well, a while ago now. His brother, Feli, had actually proposed the idea to the two of you. Romano immediately went on the defensive, cussing out his younger brother, but you thought it was a great idea. So, here you were. It wasn't all that much different from before, though, since you came over a lot.You enjoyed the brother's company; Feliciano often dropped by as well, much to his older sibling's chagrin. Feli didn't seem to notice his brother's inferiority complex towards him though, but you, on the other hand, picked up on it a while ago. You thought it was stupid, personally. The brother

forever! But there were times where he was a royal pain in the ass, like right now."Lovino, give me a break. You know you can talk to me about anything; right?" you said, putting a hand on his shoulder, which he shrugged off stubbornly.Your frown deepened and your eyes saddened a bit as well. There was no telling how long you had continued to assure him that he could talk to you about anything, but he never really opened up. There were times when he would lean against your shoulder or sit a little closer to you and give off a sort of emotion but he never really came out with it."You've been acting weird for like three weeks now and it's getting worse. I'm really worried about you." You continued."Well stop worrying already!" he growled.Ok, now y

Anyone out there with child's father living abroad?
I am just looking for a place where I can hopefully either get some advice or get this off my chest!
I have a 3 year old daughter whose father left us very unexpectedly last May. He walked out the day before my house was going to go on the market as he just didn't love me anymore. We were going to move to Ireland to be together as a family as that is where he comes from (he's building a house there). Thankfully this happened before we moved and my house is still in my name! He now works in America for 7-8 weeks at a time then goes back to Ireland (to stay with his mother as the house he is builidng is still mostly field as it has been for over 5 years). He then rents a holiday cottage/caravan/teepee in Scotland, where I live, for 4 days to a week and has my daughter live with him there so that she can attend playgroup and come home if she needs to. He pays maintenance and he obviously loves his daughter for which I am totally grateful for. However, the problem is that he is constantly asking me if he can take my daughter to Ireland so that he can 'get things done' and I just can't bring myself to let her go as I believe that she is too young. He actually tried to bribe me by offering me a weekend away in London! I have offered to go with her but he doesn't seem too keen on that idea at all. Someone please tell me that I'm not being paranoid by thinking that he'll take her and not bring her home? I have spent several evenings on the internet trying to find some advice but to no avail. Am I the only one who thinks that a father who sees his daughter for one week in approx 16 is not capable of looking after her so far away from home. I have to add that he stays on his mother's living room floor when he is there so how can he think of taking my dauther there???
If there is anyone who can either reassure me or agree with me?
Personally, I don't think you're paranoid at all. I also know that this post isn't particularly helpful.
I can't really say that he's not able to look after your daughter, as you know if she's happy enough being with him.
I would suggest that you see if CAB can give you advice, or see if you are able to have a free half an hour appointment with a solicitor who specialises in family law. If he had a home in Britain, he could apply - and probably would be allowed - for a Court order to have his daughter spend time at his home. I'm not sure how things stand with him wanting to take her to Ireland.
How long is he wanting to take her to Ireland for?
I know I wouldn't be happy about it.
Best wishes
Hello poppy biker
Sounds like you are very worried, and that is understandable. You seem to have two main concerns, firstly that it will not be suitable for your daughter to go and stay and secondly that he will not bring your daughter back.With regard to the first one, he is obviously prepared to put himsself out considerably to see his daughter and the bit about the living room floor needn't be an issue, she will view it as an adventure. Also she will be able to see her Grandma and other family in Ireland and he will have their support in caring for her...perhaps more than you think, as if he want to "get things done", does this mean to progress the house-building?.. in which case he will not be with your daughter 24/7....but from his point of view it means that he can make some progress in his non-work time and still see his daughter. It's totally up to you but it might feel more comfortable for you if you insist on going over just the first time (whether he likes it or not) You could say that it is just to reassure yourself and with a view to her visiting alone in the future. I have to say that if he took legal action it is likely that he would get the parenting time he wishes for (just speaking from experience here) so it would seem to be in your best interests to keep it out of the legal system and inisit on visiting with her the first time, stressing that it is the first step in her visiting routine.
The second concern is more complicated and not something I can give you any definitive information about except to suggest you consult a solicitor. As Sparkling lime says, many give the first 30 minutes free. See http://www.communitylegaladvice.org.uk/index.jsp for a list of family law advisers in your area; just type in your location in the box marked "find an adviser" on the left. There are certain regulations governing how long a child can be out of the country without the permission of the other person holding parental responsibility and a solicitor will be able to tell you what exactly applies to you and your daughter.
it's a difficult situation and I do feel for you as you clearly want the very best for your daughter and maybe if her dad can be made to understand that's where you're coming from, rather than from a desire to hamper their relationship, then he might be persuaded to take things at your pace.
Best wishes
Louise :)
Hi Poppy
Louise gave the link to Community Legal Advice, I would also like to offer http://www.childrenslegalcentre.com, both of these websites will support you with legalities.
This is a very difficult and personal decision, only you can weigh up the pros and cons, I'm afraid. (always good to write them down!)
It is completely understandable that you worry about your 3 year old going that far away, but it does sound like you trust him to look after her, but I definitely agree with you going along for the first time, not for your sake but for your daughters, if she usually spends all her time with you and playgroup etc, then it could be really disconcerting for her to go somewhere where nothing is familiar to her.
She is still very young and if she has only seen him once every sixteen weeks, how well does she know him? If he wants to take her to Ireland so he can get on with the house, then is he saying he wants her there so he can spend quality time with her, or he just wants her around?? Louise makes the point that his mum may well be looking after her most of the time (hopefully really, as a building site is not the safest place for a 3 year old!) this is a positive thing for your daughter as she gets to know her paternal grandparent. Or does it mean that he gets to hang out with her when he's not busy and his mum has to do all the menial tasks? (Just asking!?)
Louise answered your post fully, but I just wanted to add, although he sounds like a decent chap and he provides maintenance and visits when he can, please don't be grateful that he loves his daughter.....It is a childs right to be loved by their parents and it is his duty as a father. He let you down and radically changed your future, don't let your gratefulness influence your decision!
Thank you so much for your replies, it has helped me a lot.
A bit of history - my ex used to work 2 weeks offshore and 2 weeks onshore, 5 or6 days of that were spent in Ireland and so my daughter is used to seeing her father for short intervals but it does mean that he gives her everything she wants and doesn't have a routine with her so she is always exhausted when she sees him. He is 41, has never been married and has no other children (our relationship lasted 5 years and that is the longest he has ever been with anyone). When my daughter was born I asked him to sign a legal form to say that he had full parental rights (in 2003 this was required if the parents were not married and the father wanted to be recognised by law) but he refused as he hates solicitors (he believes they are money grabbing ?/*).
He has asked me quite a few times to let my daughter go to Ireland and each time I have told him that she can as long as I go too but he does not want that. His mother is maternal as a brick and thinks that children shouldn't eat fruit as it rots in their stomachs and that they should have chocolate as it's good for them and although she obviously likes my daughter she never gives her cuddles. My ex has 2 sisters and a brother who live with his mother aged 21,23 and 40 but they treat my daughter like a toy to be taken all over the place to be shown off. I must add that my ex's mother had 6 children but had her mother and her aunt living with them and they did most of the bringing up of the children according to my ex. He also told me that they used to get beaten by her quite regularly. No guessing why I am so worried about this huh? I have no doubts that he will go to the building site which is over two hours away from his mother's house and she will be left with them.
I have asked him to sign a legal document to say that he will bring her back into the country but I have been told that this would not assure her return and it could take months to get her back should he refuse to bring her back.
I also have a son who is nearly 17 and I left his father when he was 6. I have worked through loads of problems with his father and his new wife (she told my son that she hated me for leaving his father! What!) and have always made sure that my son knows that his father is a good man even when I wanted to batter him! He is now well over 6', long haired, heavy metal bass guitar who has a job with the local chuch youth minister. I have been told that he is a very grounded boy who is wise for his years. He assured me recently that I did everything right which was reasurring.
I guess Anna is right, it is so theraputic to write it all down and share it with people who understand.
One more wee things before I bore everyone rigid. My daughter's father has had a drink problem for a long time and the only time he doesn't drink is when he has his daugther for a week. I went to alanon for some time and that helped me to understand it. He has never been in trouble with drinking but the first time my daughter stayed with him she wet the bed two nights in a row which has never happened before or since and I think it may have been because he didn't wake up to hear her.
I think I had better stop now or I am in danger of writing a novel :lol:
Thank you for all your good advise x
Hi again poppy biker
Thank you for sharing. I am sure it helps....and I would also like to say that it helps other people to know they're not alone and they can benefit from your experience. Your son sounds a wonderful young man and how fab that you have been able to discuss it all with him as to how you handled it. :D You also seem to be saying that you have been very tolerant of your son's father and therefore you are trying to be as fair as possible with this new situation.
I can quite understand your concerns about your daughter and that only makes me say again, insist you go with her, and do check on the law as to him needing your written permission to take her out of the country.
Keep posting and we can keep giving our support
Louise :)
I agree. Insist you go too.
Best wishes
I have to say I am in this exact situation atm. I took advice from a solicitor who told me that as young as the child is, she is too young to be away from her mum for any period of time (where its not poss to hop in a car and bring her home)
My daughter is 4 and sees her father very little, and I will not let her go over atm. When she is older and understands she will be away from you it'll be more ideal.
I understand the thoughts re taking her and not bringing her back too, I have them all the time. Just remember if he ever did that he would lose parental rights to the child.
Keep your chin up and stay firm... if he wants to see her, he has to visit her until she is older!
My daughter's father is about to leave for the middle east in a week or so time and is ment to be working 2 months there 1 month here, which i am not looking forward to as it is hard enough to get him to see her anyway with all the work he does but i dont know how to work it when he gets back i would be interested to know how you arranged your visiting arrangement and if anyone has information on how you claim child maintenacne from a parent abroad as i currently dont get any from him?
Everyone varies with their parenting arrangements when one parent lives abroad and one factor is the age of the child. Maybe someone with direct experience can give their point of view on this?
One thing I can tell you is that unless Charlotte's dad is in the forces, is a civil servant or is employed by a Uk company (although posted overseas) then the Child Support Agency cannot help if he works abroad. You would need to get a court order, see http://www.csa.gov.uk/en/setup/apply-from-abroad.asp for details.
best wishes
Louise :)

Amherst Poetry Festival
The Common at the Mead
Your name: Diane Roberts
Current city or town: Tallahassee, Florida
How long have you lived here? A slightly more complicated question than it would seem. I was born in Tallahassee and lived here till I went abroad to university. I spent ten years in England and fourteen years in Alabama and then came back to Tallahassee. The short answer is that, in my head, I've lived here all my life.
Best time of year to visit? Late February or early March. It's spring and that ain't no joke: azaleas, dogwood, redbud, daffodils all going boom at once.
Three words to describe the climate: hot wet towel.
A year later, and I'm up at dawn again on the longest day. Last time it was driving you to a job you tried so hard to like. This time, it's me, delivering papers in the limbo between yesterday and today. The date on the front page is tomorrow in my mind because I haven't slept, but today hasn't started until someone steps out onto their front porch and picks up this carefully rubber-banded scroll.
It's not summer break but an economic layoff with no definite return, and I try not to think too much about how it sounds when people ask what I'm doing these days and I say excitedly, "I have a paper route," as if I'm some golden-age TV kid who's waiting to hang out with Wally and The Beav. A few months ago when people asked, I could say, "I teach writing at the college." Like that means anything. But people seem to think it does.
"Once / a single cell / found that it was full of light / and for the first time there was seeing." With these words from W.S. Merwin, Maria Terrone opens her third full-length collection of poetry, Eye to Eye. If the unifying theme of Terrone's book is seeing, as this quote and the book's title imply, then Terrone sees the world in all its blemished and brutal multiplicities. She sets the stage with the collection's first poem, "Spaccanapoli."
Two men scrape blue paint from the wall of the building across the street. They sit cross-legged, each plying his scraper with energy. The one on the right is thickset, wearing a gray t-shirt stained with sweat. The one on the left is more striking. His tight white t-shirt rides up his torso, baring his muscular lower back and the crest of black underpants. His long army-green shorts droop, exposing still more of that black arc. His hair is black and spiky, sideburns visible when he turns his head.
Justin Taylor is the author of the short story collection Everything Here is the Best Thing Ever (2010) and the novel The Gospel of Anarchy (2011). His latest collection Flings is forthcoming from HarperCollins in August. Melody Nixon caught up with him in Brooklyn, New York, to discuss the progression of his work, fiction like a warm bath, and riding reindeer into rivers.

Facebook: And the Whores it Contains RantNote* *I did this rant on account someone requested it and of past experiences. I am not friends with any kind of people I describe in this rant**Now for those that have seen my old rants about facebook, Lady Gaga, Twitter, partying, sluts & manwhores, etc. etc., well I'm back. And I'm back on the subject on facebook, but not really facebook itself, but the whores it contains on its website. How many times have we seen this on facebook?>>:iconduckfaceplz:...yes, the damn duck face!!!! Or even better, how many times have we seen girls put up a nice decent picture of themselves and write as the caption "I'm FATTTTTT in this picture!" or "I look so ugly in this shot!!

Ed Helms Discovering the Once-ler FandomWell, I am not sure how many people have heard about this, but today at 3:00 EST, Ed Helms was brutally introduced to Oncest as part of the Once-ler fandom and as the only part because of some overzealous fans. Guess how well that went everyone, he finds that part of fandom to be freaky and its clear he was not exactly happy about it, and I want to inform those that have not heard about this. I want to tell you that the fandom can make it past this, cause even thought the VA for Oncie is not fond of a certain pairing there is more to this fandom to enjoy that goes from Oncie under Truffula trees to him when he is old and trying to get back on his feet, or him actually finding someone to be with.So I say we keep on biggering, and let the fandom grow, because the constant probing of some fangirls to the VA will not keep us from enjoying our fandom.Its understandable that some people will leave the fandom, maybe even feel ashamed, but I say if you like the art and you like the fiction.
How to gain popularityI've had various people ask me what they can do to get noticed on DA so I'll write a little journal about my experience with various methods of getting your stuff out there.I am not at all claiming to be popular myself, I'm just providing feedback.1. USE GROUPSSeriously people. It's probably one of THE best ways to get exposure.There are so many groups too! You will always be able to find one that is suited to your art.Groups are effective because it gets your artwork exposed to a new batch of watchers (the people who watch the group) besides your own. Try to join groups with lots of members and watchers, as these will give you the most views.A really great group to gain exposure from is :icongetwatchers:2. USE THE THUMBSHARE FORUM AND CHATLots of people go to the thumbshare forum and the thumbchat to find new artists to watch and to share their works. These are great places to meet new people and aquire feedback on your deviatio
Once-ler fans, discusshttp://once-ler-sexual-frustrations.tumblr.com/post/21334143045I finally found the full song to Biggering...currently my new favorite Lorax song.There's a part where this...voice is talking about greed.Is that the Lorax explaining it?Or is that just a random character?Opinions?I think it's the lorax, I duno because he's explaining how bad greed is.I really do wish this song was in the movie, I find it more effective and impacting to the whole complex on how and WHY the Once-ler was chopping down trees.It tells more of the story, ya know?And damn UNF that high note!I love ending verse to the song
good news, everyone XDyesh, I has some "SPIKE" updates.. I just wanted to tell you that I've finally finished planning pretty much the rest of the story! From the mid part and onwards to the ending. I wrote 7 pages of summary yesterday, and today I've just written 4 pages of a new chapter! I know these news must torment some of you, since I don't post more chapters here.. And I'm really sorry.. BUT - this means I will be finishing "SPIKE" faster than I'd first expected! I'm hoping I'll have the whole thing done and edited by the summer, 2012, and then I'll send it to some publishers!I kind of want to send it to some English-speaking publishers now, or soon, like, send off a few chapters and hear what they think. Because translating it to Norwegian just...it... argh, it's difficult because I can't "hear" my characters speaking Norwegian so writing them in Norwegian just doesn't feel right at all...Do you have any suggestions for good publishers I could send some chapters to? And what makes you s
Tom Preston is Wrong[ Follow-up Journal Here: http://mpsai.deviantart.com/journal/Tom-is-Wrong-Again-Lessons-Inside-314918601 ]I don't usually do call out threads, but today I'm feeling sassy. Besides, the subject of this journal, TomPreston, blocked me a while back. I guess for being a "troll"?I had seen his comics on the front page nearly every day and didn't think much of them, however after he wrote A Harsh Lesson I began to critique his work. Partially because I wanted to see if he'd practice what he preached (he doesn't) but mostly because he has the ear of many young artists and is sending them many bad messages. Over time critiquing him became an exercise for myself on the nature of comic making, and I got into interesting conversations with various people in the course of posting them.I stuck to mostly his long-form comic work, and stuck mostly to critiquing writing and occasionally the art.It came to a point where he seeme

MAKE ART, NOT WAR!We've all heard the phrase "Make Art, Not War!" Well, here is one way of doing just that: By learning to respect one another's cultural, religious and personal beliefs; also lifestyle choices -- even while maybe being quietly non-supportive of differences of opinions!For instance, if your cultural, religious and personal beliefs are different to another artist's own ideals, this doesn't mean that either of you are 'wrong'; for believing in/practising separate customs and/or ideals. It just means that you need to understand each other, in spite of differing opinions! Take the time to research the other person's religion/culture/lifestyle choices, before disagreeing with them over such matters. After all, we all live in a multicultural and ecumenical (multi-religions) society; where everyone is as unique as they are beautiful!So please, remember that as members of the globally-recognised art site, deviantArt; we are all here to make art, not war!Also, remember to mentio

Things you should never ask an Artist to doI write this to not spark a debate or judgement, only to share my personal opinion and experience in hopes of benefiting you and offering insight to people thinking about hiring an artist.Things you should never ask an Artist to do:1. Free Work.Do I really have to explain this one? You wouldn't walk into any other business offering a service and ask for free clothes or a burger right? No, you pay for them without question and they take a lot less creativity, time to make and cost a lot less. Why ask people to work for free on something you couldn't make yourself? If you believe in your vision, then I suggest find funding for it to pay the people doing the work for you. This goes for family as well, don't get me wrong, I love my family and enjoy doing something for them but it means so much more when I OFFER to do something for free than when it's expected. Let the artist decide whether or not they want to give their time for free without asking them, as a rule treat them with res
Teenagers RantSociety and the influence it holds on our younger generation is fuckin ridiculous!! This has been pissing me off for a while and I got to let this one out. Don't get me wrong, this has been going on for a while now, for years and years, I just think nowadays it's getting progressively worse. Now, society has a great effect on the world right? But you want to know who it effects the most? Yea, mostly stoned dead teenagers. I don't understand the concept of how teens think today. Today teenagers, they just have this thing, not all, but most just think, hey if you do what society tells you to do, you're automatically cool, you're automatically a "normal teen". WTF is that shit!? I'm a teen, and I don't think half the shit teens do today is "cool" or "badass". It's just obnoxious and irritating! Let's evaluate shall we. We can just guess on the top of our heads what teens do today that's just sooo damn annoying!!! #1) Getting high. Now I don't know about you, but br

The family of the late Cory Wilson is expected to make a special presentation at the Chatham County commission meeting on Friday.
Wilson collapsed at Georgia Southern University in January and died as the result of a fatal cardiac arrhythmia. There was not a defibrillator available to Wilson at that time.
Wilson's family recently held a baseball tournament to raise money to buy defibrillators for Chatham County.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Arab has some of the best schools around. I only wish they had the time this year to teach my 3rd grader (straight A student) to write cursive. 6 years ago, my son was taught in 2nd grade at the same school. Our students today have so much pushed on them its hard for the teachers to find time to teach them the basics like writing!!
its in a great location it has a site on the web
Thank goodness that my kids no longer go here! They are no longer bullied by the kids that cannot be corrected because they are related to or whose parents went to school with a teacher there. They are no longer being yelled at in class where they & every other student in the class were too scared to ask a question because of the humiliation. They no longer have sit in the classroom injured because the teacher refused to send them to the nurse. They no longer have mysterious illnesses so that they don't have to go to school. They are no longer in a school that discourages parental involvement. They are now in a different school system and could not be happier. This is a wonderful website for parents to read other parent comments and make their own judgement call. I wish I had know about it before.
I have been very disappointed with this school system. I agree that the children are not treated equally - you have to know everyone or have gone to school there yourself. My family moved to Arab when my husband was transferred to Huntsville 2 years ago. We pulled my 2 sons out at the end of the school year. We moved a little north and are extremely happy with the county school system.
Let me start by saying that I am a proud alumnus of Arab City Schools. My sons have both attended APS & AES, and my oldest is at AJHS & both have received an excellent education from the teachers there. My children have not had a teacher yet that wasn't concerned about their students being the best they could be. They are very encouraging & remain involved long after the student leaves their classroom. I would encourage anyone who moves to the Arab area to seriously consider sending their child/ children to AES or any other of our wonderful schools!
I have received communication from my child's teachers weekly for the past three years through e-mail, graded papers, grade-level newsletters, and personal correspondence. My child has also been in the gifted program for three years, and we have been extremely satisfied with the attention and education he has gotten from the gifted teacher, Bette Hendrix. Our high test scores prove AES's great teaching staff, supportive administration, and happy parents.
Mrs. Willis was a great principal.It is a shame she is gone. The school does not have parent involvement. There are no volunteer opportunities. There are no PTA meetings. There is no communication between parents and teachers unless the parent initiates it. This is a very strange school. I would not recommend it.
My family moved to Arab over other areas surrounding Huntsville because of the school system's stellar reputation. We are overwhelmingly disappointed. Inconsistent disciplinary actions. This is a very small school system with only about 2000 pupils. Funds are very limited so the gifted and special needs programs suffer.
We are a military family that has moved quite a bit and feel we can accurately compare schools. Test scores aren't everything. There is no parent involvement other than parties and field day. They do not have PTO/PTA meetings. I had never heard of such a thing. The primary, junior high, and high schools seem to be run very well. Given what I know now though I would not enroll my children into Arab City Schools unless my youngest would be starting at the junior high.
I have two children that attend this school and I would not send them anywhere else. This school has been wonderful for our family and I actually have one at the Primary still but will be attending here. My nephew will begin school here for fifth grade, I am glad my brother and sister in law finally got wise and transfered him now from Union Hill before he has to attend Brewer. Arab would be the best choice for any student in my opinion the academics, sports, and extracurricular activities are great in Arab. Keep up the great work teachers, staff, and Principals, Arab really has what it takes for children to be successful.
I have had one child to attend this school and this year I enrolled my second child. I have enjoyed avery aspect of the education that my first child received, and I am excited that my second child can also enjoy this school.
My husband was military for years and when we moved to Arab I was so at ease because of the wonderful school system. If you are moving and are woried about your child Don't they will be in good hands. Charlotte Matthews
My oldest daughter attends this school. We are very pleased with Mrs. Willis and her staff. Thanks for a great job!

BRAINERD, Minn. (AP) -- The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is giving a mixed report on the Mississippi River watershed in the St. Cloud area.
The Mississippi River-St. Cloud watershed includes all or parts of seven counties. More than 70 river and stream sites and 69 lakes were sampled for the report. The Mississippi itself there will be covered in a separate report.
Researchers found 15 stream segments impaired because of weak communities of fish and other aquatic life, while elevated nutrients and bacteria are common concerns throughout the watershed.
The report recommends reducing runoff in farm areas, protecting remaining forested areas, controlling storm runoff, adding buffer strips along shorelines and stream banks, and reducing phosphorus levels.
This report is one of about 80 the MPCA is developing for all of Minnesota's major watersheds.

The last bit of good economic news from the eurozone is now disappearing. Even worse, the first quarter numbers were revised downward. France was also flat last quarter so everyone will now be watching closely to follow the numbers in the current (Q3) quarter. BBC News:
Growth in the German economy slowed sharply between April and June, and was weaker at the start of the year than previously thought, figures show.
The economy grew by just 0.1% in the quarter, according to provisional figures from the national statistics office, while growth in the first three months of the year was 1.3%.
The NY Times is going in the opposite (but mainstream) direction today with Germany Is Flying Above the Economic Storm in Europe.

In response to:
the only thing flawed about our candidate; the MSM that lied about him. They also covered up the "flaws and lies" from this Administration. I can't wait to hear how happy your are when you can't afford food, clothing or fuel. That is IF you actually are a contributor to society rather than a "taker". Which is what I suspect. Our "gloom and doom" is for the sad state of our country and what is coming in the next 4 years.
President Obama promises to move the country forward with his recycled pledge of five million green jobs. But in the real world, small businesses are struggling to stay afloat as they deal with the fiscal wreckage of this administration's disastrous venture socialism. Here's the tale of just one Colorado company victimized by the Obama Department of Energy (DOE).

ROCKVILLE, Ind. | On Monday, region native Bill Pelke celebrated the release of one of his grandmother's killers from prison.
Paula Cooper was 15 years old when she fatally stabbed Ruth Pelke, an elderly Gary Bible school teacher, 33 times with a butcher knife during a 1985 robbery. Cooper and three other teens later pleaded guilty to charges relating to Pelke's death.
But it was Cooper's case that garnered international attention, including that of Pope John Paul II, when she was sentenced to death in 1986. She was 16 years old.
In 1989, the Indiana Supreme Court ruled it was unconstitutional to sentence someone younger than 16 to death and commuted Cooper's sentence to 60 years in prison.
Cooper, now 43, was released at 10 a.m. Monday from Rockville Correctional Facility, said Doug Garrison, spokesman for the Indiana Department of Correction. Because of credit time earned through good behavior and other programs, Cooper served about 28 years in prison.
Bill Pelke said he remembers the exact moment he forgave Cooper for his grandmother's murder.
It was Nov. 2, 1986, and Pelke said he was sitting in the cab of a crane at what was then Bethlehem Steel in Burns Harbor. He was reflecting on his grandmother's death when he realized how appalled she would be that Cooper was sitting on death row and surrounded by hatred.
"She would've had love and compassion," Pelke said of his grandmother. "Now that fell on my shoulders."
The next day, Pelke wrote Cooper a letter. She wrote back, and the two became friends. It is an unlikely friendship, but one that has survived nearly 20 years.
"Paula has worked hard to change her life in the decades since the crime," Cooper's sister Rhonda LaBroi said in a statement. "She entered prison as a very troubled teenager and is leaving a reformed woman. ... As always, our sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to the Pelke family."
Pelke said Cooper told him she was excited but scared about experiencing life outside prison walls. She's never written a check, had a bank account or a job, he said.
While in prison, Cooper earned her GED, received a bachelor's degree, completed an apprenticeship program in housekeeping and collected various certificates. She previously told The Times she hopes those accomplishments will help her find steady work. Cooper also said she wants to talk to troubled youth and help them avoid making her mistakes.
Pelke traveled from his home in Alaska to Indiana to be there for Cooper's release. At the request of Cooper's family, he did not go to the prison on Monday. But Pelke said he promised to take Cooper out to lunch and will buy her a computer. A friend of his also agreed to take Cooper shopping for new clothes.
He said he looks forward to hearing from her soon and wishes her "all the success in the world."
"People ask, 'How can you forgive her?'" Pelke said. "Forgiveness is not for the person who has done something wrong. Forgiveness is for us."

The West Country region
Dorset: is chalk downs (sheep, yew-tree woods, marbled white butterflies and a carved giant) and chalk cliffs (over which, in Far From the Madding Crowd, Gabriel Oak's sheep cascaded and below which Sergeant Troy left his clothes at Durdle Door) and chalk streams (trout fishing) and dark-thatched stone cottages with exuberant flower gardens. It is great bowls and vales of green tree-speckled farmland looking magnificent from wooded hill-tops, some with ancient forts; and country houses in their own valleys, reminding one of Brideshead; and lots of double-barrelled village names often beginning with Winterbourne or ending with Abbas and the one and only Whitchurch Canonicorum. It is fossil-filled cliffs (and hunting them on the beaches below) by Lyme Regis (French Lieutenant's Woman) and Charmouth, and the dome of Golden Cap near Chideock, and the extraordinary 18 mile long Chesil Beach of pebbles which regularly wrecked sailing ships, enclosing a lagoon which inspired Moonfleet (about smugglers) and shelters Abbotsbury and its swannery; and it is Portland (its views, stone and Bill), and Thomas Hardy, Egdon Heath and the lanes that Tess plodded, and Lulworth Cove which gave its name to a butterfly. Weymouth (with still handsome seafront and sandy beach where King George III made bathing machines popular, and now with Olympic sailing facilities) and Poole (huge natural harbour full of boats and Brownsea Island with red squirrels). Sherborne is its best looking small town. At Tyneham, Army occupation has caused an unintentional sanctuary for wild flowers, birdsong and friendly (mostly) insects. The whole Dorset coast is called a 'World Heritage Coastline'.
Blandford Forum
Charlton Marshall: village (pub, church) in a river valley (coarse fishing) between Blandford Forum (Georgian town), 2 miles, and the sea at Poole and Bournemouth (sandy beaches), 17 miles. Poole Harbour is beautiful with boats and Brownsea Island (Nat. Trust, red squirrels, woods). White cliff coast (Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove), 16 miles.

'WWE Vintage Collection' TV Report #242 – January 20th, 2013
Shown on Sky Sports in the U.K.
By Stephen Lyon.
This week's theme: One match show - the 2000 WWF Royal Rumble match.
Show was hosted by Gene Okerlund and Renee Young.
The Show:
1) The Rock won the 30 man Royal Rumble match, to earn a WWF title match at Wrestlemania 16. This match was the main event of the 'WWF Royal Rumble 2000' pay-per-view event, that took place at Madison Square Garden, New York on January 23rd, 2000. Announcers for this match were Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler.
Match opened with Grandmaster Sexay and D-Lo Brown, with Headbanger Mosh in third, with Mosh sporting a pair of large furry cone-shaped fake breasts (just for the hell of it, I guess). Kaentai (Take Michinoku & Funaki) - who weren't official participants in this match - ran in to attack all three guys, but were quickly dispatched to the outside. This was a running comedic gag, repeated numerous times during the match where they'd run in and be quickly thrown out. Christian was next in, followed by Rikishi, who was the first big 'star' of the match. Rikishi gave Christian a belly-to-belly suplex and tossed him out, as he did with Mosh, then gave D-Lo Brown a sitdown shoulderbreaker before eliminating D-Lo. Rikishi squared up to the remaining Sexay, only for Scotty Too Hotty to be the next man in (what were the chances of that, huh?), and the Too Cool trio began dancing to their entrance music in the ring. The live crowd were loving this, everyone in the arena clapping their hands above their head in quite the sight.
Alas, the dancing didn't last long, and Rikishi clotheslined and threw out his two little dancing buddies, showing he was all business. Steve Blackman was next in, eliciting 'Blackman Sucks' chants, and he didn't last long before elimination. Next was the big Viscera, who did dominate Rikishi initially, giving him a belly-to-belly suplex. Rikishi soon gained the upperhand though, and a legdrop and splash in the corner later, Big Vis was history too. Big Boss Man was next, with the wily veteran stalling forever, awaiting reinforcements. Unfortunately, Test followed him, and engaged in a big brawl with Boss Man around the ringside area. Davey Boy Smith (wearing jeans), and the blood-sipping Gangrel followed, as the ring began to fill up. After a commercial break, Bob Backlund (wearing red shorts) was out, a surprise entrant that popped the crowd. Edge was also in the ring at this point, and everyone ganged up on Rikishi to eliminate the big man. Chris Jericho was next in, and he quickly eliminated the crazy Backlund, who left through the crowd. Crash Holly and Chyna followed, Holly being spanked by Edge, and Chyna surprisingly suplexing Jericho out of the ring to eliminate him (which I'm sure amused several key people in the back watching this). Boss Man quickly eliminated Chyna following this, her sole purpose of involvement in this match completed.
After Okerlund and Young reset the scene in the studio, we rejoined the match, which at this point had Al Snow, Val Venis, Hardcore Holly and Road Dogg added to the action. The next big star in the match was The Rock, who came out to a huge reaction, and immediately eliminated the Big Boss Man. Test and Venis teamed up to try to eliminate the Rock, but no dice. Mr Ass (Billy Gunn) was next, as Rock tossed out Crash Holly, with Big Show coming out to a pretty big reaction. After a commercial break, Kane (accompanied by girlfriend Tori) was in, chokeslamming Venis out of the ring in his first move. The Godfather sauntered out (big crowd reaction), accompanied by four Hos, who did a lap outside the ring, as Kaentai (just Funaki at this point) ran in, only to be tossed out again. They replayed a clip of Taka Michinoku being tossed out earlier, where he did a sick bump landing face first at ringside, and was legitimately taken to the hospital, as J.R. mentioned on commentary. In a sign of what the WWF felt they could get away with at this point, Lawler made borderline racist jokes, referring to Taka and Funaki as 'little Chinese guys', and that 'Taka will be okay, they have some good Chinese hospitals here in New York', which J.R. admonished him for, telling him to 'stop being so xenophobic'. No announcer would dare say anything like Lawler said on WWE tv in 2013, and I'm a little surprised this aired unedited on this Vintage show.
X-Pace entered as number 30, and the match began to climax. Snow eliminated Holly. Big Show threw out Godfather. Rock threw out Snow. Road Dogg laughed at Snow's elimination, only for his own tag team partner Billy Gunn to throw out Dogg. Gunn himself was next out, courtesy of Kane. The New Age Outlaws then combined to drag Kane under the bottom rope to the outside and brawled with him all around the ringside area. Rock threw X-Pac out, but the referees - dealing with the Outlaws & Kane - didn't see it, and X-Pac crept back in. Kane slammed Show, but X-Pac levelled his former tag team partner Kane with spinning kick to the head, Kane being eliminated. X-Pac followed this up with a Bronco Buster on Show, who was angered by this, and recovered to military press slam X-Pac out of the ring. This left Rock vs Show as the final two, and the 'Great One' wasted little time using a double-leg takedown on Show and delivering the Peoples Elbow. Rock tried to toss out Show, only for the giant to block the move, and instead chokeslam Rock. Finish was a play off the 1994 & 1995 Rumble match finishes. Show tried to throw Rock out, but in the process, Rock held on to the top rope, and as both tumbled over, Show hit the floor, and Rock quickly scrambled inside the ring to win the match.
Closing thoughts: Enjoyable show. Most Rumbles are good, some great. This was a good one. It was enjoyable seeing most of the roster at this time, on this show.

Need to Lose 9 lbs in Only 11 Days? - Learn the Secrets Behind The Idiot Proof Diet and save 50% with this secret bonus code.
The US Federal Reserve's decision to pump an extra $600bn into the economy has galvanized emerging market central banks into preparing defensive measures and sparked criticism from leading global economies.FT.com / Global Economy - Backlash against Fed's $600bn easing
The Fed's initiative, in response to rising concern about the weakness of the US economy, has fuelled fears of a sharp drop in the dollar and a fresh flood of capital inflows into emerging markets. China, Brazil and Germany on Thursday criticised the Fed's action a day earlier, and a string of east Asian central banks said they were preparing measures to defend their economies against large capital inflows.
Guido Mantega, the Brazilian finance minister who was the first to warn of a "currency war", said: "Everybody wants the US economy to recover, but it does no good at all to just throw dollars from a helicopter." Mr Mantega added: "You have to combine that with fiscal policy. You have to stimulate consumption." Germany also expressed concern.
