Such-is-life


I have a prolific and powerful imagination, and the image i have of you is of a woman who is dark and mysterious and calculating. A lithesome beauty. Hell, a very beautiful sorceress.

And my wife would just have to understand that this is a thing of the heart: over which I have no control.

Smile constantinople or istanbul
such-is-life,
constantinople is istanbul. the city was renamed istanbul by the turks centuries after constantinople was conquered from the byzantines. I personally believe that Russia discontinued her attempts to take istanbul after the Crimean War in the 1850's.
