A Sad Moment
Some days when he felt alone he felt like no matter how far he ran or how many people he met he’d never feel like he belonged in any of the places of with any of the people he saw or met.
Because, you see, he was made of lightning. He jumped between the metal struts of a bridge, coursed through cabling under a cozy sky island village, stowed away aboard hundreds of airships. His world was one of endless sky but limited connection, where although he and his kind lived on clouds, along with the other races of his airy planet not composed of more solid stuff, their minds stayed dormant and their conversations, their relationships as closed and guarded as a granite vault.
Yes he was made of lightning and flew through clouds…but his soul was as iron manacles. Cold, heavy, lifeless. Alone.
Just because I cannot commit the act of small talk does not mean I don’t have huge things to say.
meeting women: wow you are so beautiful, i love your style! what’s your name? what do you do?! we need to be best friends! what are you doing tomorrow you want to go for lunch? here’s my number text me!
meeting men: *doesn’t look up from phone* what??
Why do we call them NOTPs when we could call them Relationshits
I sat with my lonely
In a dark room for ten days.
Here and there
Came the light,
Meagerly and sluggish.Obsidian nights
Blocking out the sun for too long,
The rain kept knocking on the window
Asking if it could come in
And add to this drowning feeling.I haven’t been breathing in the evenings
But I am still here so at least I know
That no matter how hard
The emptiness chokes
I will not die.I hear footsteps in the hallway,
My lonely is coming for me.
I sit up in my bed,
My hands are already fists.
I am not scared anymore.I am stronger than my loneliness,
I am the light that I have been searching for.
We are children of galaxies that could be,
I have enough stardust in me to ignite the entire universe.
i may say it like a joke,
but when you tell me your plans
and try to invite me,
and i say to you
‘i’m just going to cry in my room alone anyway hah’
i’m not kidding.
that’s what i’ve become-
the punchline of a bad joke.
How amazing it is to find someone who wants to hear about all the things that go on in your head.

Oh, this might need a really long answer as there are such a lot of cool and weird frogs!
Personally, I have a weakness for animals that look chubby and grumpy, so I love Rain frogs (Breviceps sp.)…
…and Horned frogs (Ceratophrys sp.)
…they have also a great colour variance:
Glass frogs (Centrolenidae) are translucent…
…and a lot of them have absolutely amazing eyes:
Mossy frogs (Theloderma corticale) live reallly up to their name…
…as does the Malayan leaf frog (Megophrys nasuta)…
…the Pinocchio frog (Litoria sp. nov.)…
…and the Fringe leaf frog (Cruziohyla craspedopus)…
…so Hemiphractus fasciatus (a kind of Horned tree frog) might as well get the name Pyramid head frog :-)
Marsupial frogs (Gastrotheca and Flectonotus) can look quite bizarre when the egg poaches on their backs are occupied…
…whereas Surinam toads (Pipa) look kind of weird whether or not they have eggs and tadpoles implanted:
(x)
The Turtle frog (Myobatrachus gouldii) looks like a turtle that lost its shell :-)
I think I’ll have to stop for now (I could go on for quite a while: Colourful frogs! Poisonous frogs! Shovel-nosed frogs! Striped frogs! Aquatic frogs! Burrowing frogs! Tiny frogs! Giant frogs! Frogs frogs frogs frogs frogs!).
Don’t forget to take a look at the last post about the most bad-ass of all frogs: the Hairy or Horror frog (Trichobatrachus robustus), also known as the Wolverine of the amphibian world :-)
what the heck
