Not Ophelia (most days)


Valerie. 43. Chicagoland. Actress, office drone, and fledgling digital media professional. I do not suffer snobs gladly.

Here you will find things Pre-Raphaelite, fannish obsessions, fabulous fashion, gorgeous humans, and awe-inspiring nature.

The glass-enclosed funeral monument of Inez Clarke at Chicago’s Graceland Cemetery. 6-year-old Inez Clarke was killed by lightning while on a picnic with her family. Her parents, stunned by the tragic loss, commissioned a life-sized statue of their daughter to be placed over her grave. There are tales of the statue weeping as well as claims of Inez actually moving. It is said, during violent thunderstorms, Inez vanishes from her glass box and roams around the cemetery until the storm is over.

Well, why wouldn’t she? They gave her an umbrella.

Meet Juliet.
This is the statue of Juliet that stands outside her ‘house’ in Verona. See her shiny boob? That’s because it’s good luck to touch it.

REAL GOOD LUCK RUBBING THE BOSOM OF A MINOR

Minor, schminor. She’s like 500 years old!
