Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Either that or time has just fucking stopped.
You tell me.
I know this isolation/quarantine thingy
is hard for some people.
A lot of people.
So many people have died...
so many are sick
It breaks my heart
how much pain and suffering
is going on right now.
And I feel so helpless.
I want to keep thinking that there is a light
at the end of this dark, anxious tunnel.
I want to believe that we will come out
on the other side.
I do have faith.
I believe that although
there are some people
who are inherently stupid and selfish...
That the majority are good and kind
and that we will prevail.
OK.
So that brings me to this post.
Yeah.
2 posts in a few days?
I must have time on my hands!
Since I'm feeling particularly nostalgic right now
Since I'm longing for the days
when laughter and light
filled my timeline...
I thought I would bring up
some of my favorite
Robert/Kristen pictures.
I mean...
Do you remember how you felt
when you saw these pictures?
And if you were like me
(A very Robstenny Robsten fan)
These pictures brought you
smiles and happiness.
Because yeah...
I love LOVE.
And watching 2 people
fall in love
against all the odds
of being in the eye
of a fucking hurricane...
or tornado.
Or both combined, even.
They still managed to find love.
And that made me happy
and if you're reading this...
It probably made you happy, too.
Ahhhh....
This one kinda started it all.
Damn.
I still remember the furor
surrounding this picture.
Rob and Kristen holding hands.
This really was the first public
acknowledgment
that Rob and Kristen
were TOGETHER.
It was glorious.
So close.
So very very close
And so happy.
This whole time
was incredible.
Ok.
This was always one of my very favorites.
Kristen was filming "On The Road"
Rob came to visit her on set...
And I honestly don't know
if I have ever seen Rob so happy
to be in her presence.
Man, I love this picture.
It still makes me smile.
Big time.
The pictures that broke the fandom.
There really was no getting away
from the fact that
Rob and Kristen
were together and in love...
Rob at Cannes.
(Don't ask me for details...
I'm going on memory at this point.)
Kristen was there supporting him
After his movie played for the audience...
Who did he seek out?
Kristen.
Never underestimate
how important they were to each other.
For some reason
when I look at these pictures
2 thoughts come to mind.
1. Kinda cringeworthy
in their invasiveness
2. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
They still make me chuckle.
Giggle.
Laugh.
Oh man.
Rob still loved Kristen...
Even after all the drama.
Even after all the bullshit.
He still wanted to be with her.
Still.
Love is fucking long.
Ok.
Enough for now.
And...
For the record
I KNOW
that Rob and Kristen
have both moved on
to other relationships
and its been years
since this all happened.
But I don't care!
I can still enjoy what was...
I can still sigh
and smile
at all the good times
this fandom shared.
And they were GOOD TIMES.
I can be nostalgic
and remember the gloriousness of
Rob and Kristen.
And what coulda been...
Maybe.
Who knows.
Different times.
Different circumstances.
Random thoughts...
1. Rob and Kristen had an intense
relationship for years.
Can you imagine?
Burned hot.
Until it burned out.
2. Rob and Kristen
don't hate each other.
They still talk about each other
(to each other?)
with kindness and affection.
And doesn't that tell
you something?
3. I wanted to just say...
I still adore
Tom Sturridge.
That will NEVER change.
Please be safe.
Please be healthy.
Please be happy.
And so it goes
Until next time.
Bye for now
