there are helicopters buzzing around my house this morning. and while i kept flashing back to the last time this was happening, i didn't make the connection until just now.

it's the anniversary of the day we invaded iraq. where were you, and what were you doing a year ago today. how did you feel?

i was horrified, and frightened, and disgusted. i awoke to...

I was at home with my parents. It must have been spring break. We watched the news which just had endless pictures of tanks driving through the desert, and the people sitting in the middle of the busiest road in town all night. We talked about taking them cookies. I wished I were doing something, but never managed to leave the house.

I was at work, arguing with the irritating, overbearing, overweight, under-educated redneck about why Bush sucks. What made me soo sad that day was the realization that well over half the population of this country is just like this retard. I vowed to become politically active in 2004, and sure enough, I just sent my first check to the Kerry camp last week.

Next on the agenda is organizing a Rock n Roll Rally for the Dems of West Michigan, to get the young people to vote in some decent people not only on the national level, but here in WEst Michigan, too. I'm sick and tired of being oppressed by war-mongering whores to the dollar.

i need to learn how to make leg warmers...
eyesquad:
Life is like a store of leg warmers. Forrest said it and I believe it. Leg warmers are good. I think that style left the world of the cool way too early. Cut down in it's prome like Courtney Love (did she ever have a prime?) who knows.

I didn't get the Wolly Mammoth thing, I was heavily drugged on Fruit Loops and string chees at the time. Those damm pushers at Kroger, the cops really ought to do something about them.

so a conversation i was having with turtleegg604 about superstring theory reminded me of this thought i had when i was about 7 or 8. i was sitting on my bed thinking about the universe, and space, and existence....and somehow got on this train of thought that took me into territory i just could not comprehend. this question came up...KINDOF about the universe, and where...

sorry to hear that

Man, at 7 years old I was wondering what container my GI Joes were in. That was the ultimate dilemma for me. Time and space in the Universe wasn't really in the forefront. Cobra was taking over the coffee table and I needed Duke and Lady J to come save the stack of coasters from world domination.

Like the Mastadon by the way. I was out of town until yesterday so got it today. I cut and pasted a picture of Arnolds head on it. biggrin

I've been so busy with family and job related stuff, that I haven't nearly been able to spend enough time working on art projects...it's all good, I've just been busy as nuts. I actually have a half dozen or so members on the site who are awaiting instructions for my next batch of projects. I often work remotely with collaborators. My only problem is, I haven't been able to figure out exactly what my next project is going to be!!

there is a wonderful cherry tree in a community garden, right outside our bathroom window...and even tho it is the concrete jungle, i still see a surprising amount of wildlife antics. last year there was a male starling (black bird with a yellow beak and speckled shiny feathers) who was yodelling his heart out every morning. as i listened, i...

I had a baby starling for a time, she sure was squaky! i love spring too! Little blue flowers. There was a fire on the hill across from my house last year and that hill is flourecent green right now! Everything is lovely! love
delirium_faerie:
yeah, georgia still hasn't quite made up its mind about spring. it's spring for a little bit, then it snowed, then it's summer, then it gets cold. i guess it'll get back into spring at some point.

i love when you get that first hint of spring in the air. it's still cold, but you can just feel everything starting to wake up. and then the birds start singing all the time. and the flowers start poking up. it's great until the rivers of pollen hit. it's like being in the middle of a giant plant orgy and i don't want to be invited!

i'm only going for a couple of days to wish my mom a happy 60th birthday. it's a surprise. so, yes it's hawaii, but i was born and raised there, so for me it's just going home for a couple of days to spend time with the family. i got new tattoos too, so i can't go swimming or do much sunny type stuff. but it will be nice to get away. i'll send warm thoughts your way.
