Just a little something for my little taphophile friends - here are some pictures from our wander around the South Brisbane cemetery a few weekends ago. It was a lot of fun and much eerier than Toowong. If you want to go along one Saturday night, let me know and remember, treat your cemeteries kindly and don't be in them after dark if you're not allowed to be!

As usual none of the pictures have been touched up or changed in any way...where would the fun be in that!! Chris is just handy with a camera :)

I am in love with this girl, Jenny Owen Youngs...

"All the evidence points in one direction, says I don't need you physically around

I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else

A thing that I have but I've dropped
All that I've had but I dropped

I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you inside out

I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else

And you say that I don't have this down but I've been practicing out loud

I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you back and forth......

I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me"

Taphophilia is the non-morbid love of funerals, graves, and cemeteries. A taphophile is a practitioner of taphophilia.

Taphophilia involves epitaphs, grave stone rubbings, photography, art, and history of (famous) deaths. An example of an individual’s expression of taphophilia is the character Harold in the movie Harold and Maude. Taphophilia should not be confused with necrophilia, which is a love of dead people.

Taphophilia is often, but not always, a component of the Goth subculture.

My personality, determined by the sun.

LEO

You are creative, generous and loyal. You have true leadership ability. You can find in others their special talents and encourage them to express themselves. Very astutely, you can take the measure of others and know where they would best fit in your chain of command. You are a great organizer.

While your ability to lead is unquestionable, so is your ego, pride and arrogance in the ability. You are bossy and can be pompous, interfering, dogmatic and intolerant. You believe you know best in all matters. Others will also believe this of you and its likely you have a following or a circle of friends in which you are dominant.

In love matters you are a romantic. You love passionately and many of your affairs can be a whirlwind of courtship, romance, excitement and disillusionment when the thrill fades.

Fits of anger are not uncommon when things don’t go your way. You know how things should be and you’ve put great effort into arranging things a certain way and it really makes you mad to have it disorganized. Change is not something you appreciate. However, at the same time you are always on the look out for new and exciting things. You love luxuries and having a good time.

You understand duty very well and your loyalty and dependability is without question. You respond well in crisis and provide strong shoulders without complaint in burdening situations. Others find you very engaging, with your zest for life, dramatic nature and warm heart.
