“It was the strangest sensation, fallin' in love. 'Bout the only thing I compare it to would be jumpin' off a big cliff. Once you're past the edge, there ain't no particular reason to be graspin' for a line a safety. You just keep on fallin' anyhow, so you might as well enjoy it the whole way down.”
Dorothy Garlock, Keep a Little Secret

“I've never done this when it was an act of love.”
Dorothy Garlock, Sins of Summer
tags: love, sex

“It's so Quite around here, I'm sure I heard a Bird Fart!”
Dorothy Garlock, After the Parade
