Um. I almost wept.



I'm an ol' fashioned gal and when I saw Bec traipse down the aisle in this I yelped (into my bag of chips. man I was having a daggy night). Whoever made that veil (J'Aton), whoever chose it - man, you deserve to be celebrated. I loved it. Best dressed TV wedding ever.

That is all.

The Long and Short of It: Scar Tissue

Honest as GUTS.

Sex? Yep. Drugs? Wohohohohoh, yep. Rock'n'roll? Yessum.

It is a testament to Kiedis' charm that after revealing his deepest darkest secrets - the using, the infidelities, the lying - I find him so goddamn attractive.

Huuuge girl crush over here ladies n gents. Ignoring that; I recommend this. Highly.

Like the man himself, it's quite a spiritual chronicling of his past. I didn't think much of it at the time, but Kiedis narrates his (lengthy and often, as most are, complicated) romantic past with nothing but love and (I assume) truth. I liked that.

In fact, it's a very cool kinda juxtaposition - a calm and loving narration of a ridiculously hectic adventure.

Ophi's highlights: I loved hearing about the multitude of band members (something I never knew about) and the way they make their music. The name-dropping is pretty rad too. But the standout? The chapter about the song 'Under the Bridge'. But you gotta read it :)




The Short of It? Loved it, loved it, loved it.

I'm sad


I'm really sad :( Poor thing. But he's probably much happier now.
Right? SOMEONE HOLD ME AND TELL ME THAT EVERYTHING IS GONNA BE ALRIGHT.
