Compositionally, Labradorite is An₅₀-An₇₀A. The distinctive play of colors is called labradorescence and is caused by the schiller effect: the result of light refracting within lamellar intergrowths resulting from phase exsolution on cooling in the Boggild miscibility gap, An₄₈-An₅₈. </p>http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/36815166388http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/36815166388Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:01:04 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpzifzpjCS1qf9a94o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><strong>Grossular [Ca₃Al₂(SiO₄)₃] from Canada</strong></p>http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/36744123339http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/36744123339Wed, 28 Nov 2012 12:00:24 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqxjbuiKdv1qjhwfbo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Pyroxene in thin section with cross-polarized light.</p>http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/36671317088http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/36671317088Tue, 27 Nov 2012 12:00:25 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mccnl5d8zM1rqtreso1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><strong><big>Art by<span class="f18b"> <a class="avatar_m" href="http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=332006" title="わか">わか</a></span>.

friends. ”</span></p> <p><span><strong><em>Meryn Cadell</em> <u>The Sweater</u></strong><br/>(lyrics are spoken) <br/>Girls, <br/>I know you will understand this <br/>and feel the intrinsic incredible emotion <br/>You have just pulled over your head the worn, <br/>warm sweater belonging to a boy <br/>Now, you haven’t had a passionate <br/>kissing session or anything, <br/>but you got to go on a camping trip with him <br/>and eight other people from school <br/>And you practically slept together, <br/>your sleeping bag right next to his <br/>And you woke in the night to watch him as he slept <br/>but you couldn’t see anything ‘cause it was dark <br/>so you just laid there and listened to his breathing <br/>and wondered if your heart might burst <br/>The sweater has that faintly goat-like smell <br/>which all teenage boys possess, <br/>and that smell will lovingly transfer <br/>to all your other clothes <br/>If you get to keep it for a few <br/>days you can sleep with it <br/>but don’t let your mom see, ‘cause she’ll say, <br/>“what is that filthy thing, and who does it belong to <br/>besides the trash man?” <br/>So you have to keep it under the covers with you <br/>You can kind of lie it beside you, <br/>or wrap it around your waist, <br/>or touch it on your legs, or whatever <br/>That’s your business <br/>Now if the sweater has, like, reindeer on it <br/>or is a funny color like yellow… I’m sorry, <br/>you can’t get away with a sweater like that <br/>Look for brown, or grey, or blue <br/>Anything other than that, and you <br/>know you’re dealing with <br/>someone who’s different <br/>And different is NOT what you’re looking for <br/>You’re looking for those Teenage Alpine ski-chiseled features <br/>and that sort of blank look which <br/>passes for deep thought <br/>or at least the notion that someone’s home <br/>You’re looking for the boy of your dreams <br/>who is the same boy in the dreams of all your friends. <br/>Now the sweater isn’t going to fit you of course, <br/>you kind of have to roll up the sleeves in a jaunty way that says <br/>this is the sweater belonging to a boy, <br/>and the boy is a genuine hunka hunka burning love, <br/>and this is not just some hand me down from your brother or your father <br/>Monday, wear the sweater <br/>to school <br/>Be calm, look cute <br/>Don’t tell him about the dream you had <br/>about the place the two of you would share <br/>when you get older <br/>Just be yourself <br/>The best, cutest, quietest version of yourself <br/>Definitely wear lip gloss <br/>He looks at you, and then he looks away <br/>And then he walks away <br/>and the smell of the sweater hits you again suddenly <br/>like ape-scent gloriola <br/>and you get a note passed to you <br/>by a girl in History that says <br/>“He needs that sweater back. <br/>He forgot you put it on in the tent on Saturday <br/>and he’s been looking for it.” <br/>And you don’t have to die of humiliation, <br/>You are a strong person <br/>and this is a learning experience <br/>You can still hold your head up high as <br/>you run from the classroom <br/>tearing the stinking sweater from your body. <br/>You look at that sweater, carefully, <br/>and you realize that love made you temporarily blind. <br/>You’ve got a secret now, honey, <br/>and though you’d never sink as low as him, <br/>you could blab it all over the school if you wanted <br/>The label in that sweater <br/>said “100% Acrylic”</span></p>http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/35641193183http://myeyefollows.tumblr.com/post/35641193183Tue, 13 Nov 2012 12:00:34 -0500<img
