Makeshift Love


Makeshift

Love. Something we all crave, yes? Makeshift or otherwise.

I snapped this pic of the top of a peeling advertising banner the other day, while out walking in Newtown. I really like the textures, the mixture of fonts and the way the two words work together. Love feels kind of makeshift a lot of the time, don't you think? Sort of cobbled together and kept going with string, tape and good intentions.

Is there a correlation between "makeshift love" and "clit tingler"? I'm just curious if this is a theme series with a stunning revelation in ACT Three.

Hah! Maybe so, I hadn't thought of any correlation, but know you mention it... :) The clit tingler could possibly pass for a very makeshift kind of 'love', yes? You could probably fall in love with it, if it did the job well enough.

Sounds like a fucking DREAM to me right now. Gimme cobbled. And give it to me jailhouse style.
