I’m an old soul who wants to live in 1770 and grow up with Beethoven. I watch too many films, too many times and enjoy the occasional spot of fort-building and a drink! I go weak at the knees for anything vintage and old, and you can expect a lot of that here! Other than that, there’ll be any randomness I find interesting.Tumblr (3.0; @theyearis1770)http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/<p>What happens to a dream deferred?</p> <p>Does it dry up <br/>like a raisin in the sun? <br/>Or fester like a sore&#8212; <br/>And then run? <br/>Does it stink like rotten meat? <br/>Or crust and sugar over&#8212; <br/>like a syrupy sweet?</p> <p>Maybe it just sags <br/>like a heavy load.</p> <p>Or does it explode?</p> <p>&#8212; <em>A Dream Deferred</em>, Langston Hughes</p>http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/post/16381387508http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/post/16381387508Tue, 24 Jan 2012 01:28:46 +0000<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_llpadhH5hK1qzz1ljo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Oh yes… deciding what to wear now.</p>http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/post/5799325488http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/post/5799325488Tue, 24 May 2011 13:51:17 +0100<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lh4p4aXMgv1qzz1ljo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>(<a href="http://haphappy.com/2010/11/how-a-woman-should-behave-on-a-date/">via</a>)</p>http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/post/3484086183http://theyearis1770.tumblr.com/post/3484086183Thu, 24 Feb 2011 15:45:00 +0000<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lh1z99jcfK1qzz1ljo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Salvador Dali Taking His Anteater for a walk.
