my day back visiting my parents today is going to be spent doing five loads of laundery and playing on the internet. fun huh? evidently yesterday the hurricane blew the lid up on the chest freezer here at my parents house on the side porch and some dogs pulled all of this food out of it. yuck. not to mention the stuff still in there is now covered with layers of ice. i know my mom is waiting for me to volunteer chipping all of that stuff out of here....and i will probably end up doing it....but dammit if i don't want to stay hidden in my room. lol.
my star wars toy collection has gotten ridiculous. now i'm not complaining!! don't get me wrong but it has taken over my room. there is no more balance to the way that my toys were disperced around my room.
just got through reading Villa Incognito by Tom Robbins. If there is anybody that i would like to sit down and have a conversation with, it would be him. he has to be weird as all get-out but in a genious kind of way. his characters are always so fantasticly colorful and synical. i love it.
"Why," Tanuke grumpled, "would they fell trees but leave men standing? Trees are a damn sight more useful than people, and everything in the world knows that except people."
Maybe he had a point. Trees do generate oxygen; men just breathe it up, stink it up, and generally misuse it. Trees hold soil in place, men are constantly displacing it. Trees provide shelter and protention to countless species, men threaten the existence of those species. When is sufficient number, trees regulate atmospheric temperatures, men endanger the planet by knocking those regulations askew. You can't rest in the shade of a human, not even a roly-poly one; and isn't it refreshing that trees can undergo periodic change without having a nervous breakdown over it? And which has more dignity -- the calmer spiritual presence of a tree or a typical Homo sapien? Best of all, perhaps, what maple or cypress ever tried to sell you something you didn't want?

My Buffy figures have taken over my room. I've run out of places to display them, so some are sitting in a pile on my bookshelf.

Can you send that storm this way please?
