No time..no time!
It will still be several weeks before I'm able to craft anything approaching even a mildly entertaining journal.
For now, suffice it to say, things are good:
-We've got half the island signed up for the business, hopefully a healthy portion of the other half is coming.
-I love our new house/neighborhood. Our new next door neighbor has an amazing vegetable garden...

I've got pictures of what she did to my face. Gotta find my camera though.
I'm sure anyone who has ever taken a medication for a condition that really effected their quality of life knows the agony of choosing between the relief from the condition and the relief from the side effects of the medication.
It's never an easy choice. Especially when the condition is mostly behaviorally symptomatic. In my case, it's choosing to be unbelievably tired 24/7 or have...

I used to take some of my friend's meds. I can see what you mean by 'zombie'.
I really have to chill out before I end up raping someone with a cactus.

toothpickmoe:
That...would be interesting.
meatpieboy:
ha. That's the like question my dissertation didn't answer.
The short answer is that they do everything. It would really depend on what the context what. Birds usually have 2 or 3 different kinds of alarm and alert calls for when a predator is around (often different for hawks vs. terrestrial predators like cats). They may have a number of different social calls, for contact, indicating food, begging for food, what have you. There are calls used in aggressive encounters, to prevent or stop fighting. Some birds have copulation calls, or calls given before or after copulation to coordinate male and female behavior...
Since you say "going OFF", my best guess is that some predator had gotten a chick, and the parents were going as berserk as they could in an attempt to save it. But that's pretty much a best guess. It could have been two birds having an aggressive encounter, too. And mynas mimic, I think, so you could hear a whole lot of variety out of them.
Seriously, I tried studying why some species have large call repertoires and some have small ones. Deep stuff. Very confusing. Still confuses me.
Finally: not a dumb question.

Sounds good.

That's not a house!!!
Yes, it is through a community program that runs it through the college. It's basically teaching us how to make a business plan and run all of our numbers. I also have to take a finacial class with it. i just finished with figuring out my net worth. Interesting.
Thanks for thinking i can kick ass.

I will report back.
I'm all hopped up on 5 hour energy and practice is cancelled on account of rain.

oh, lol, well, after the run, i had to pack up, shower and then get on a plane. i don't think that a person on 5hr energy should be confined to a CRJ with 50 seats....could spell disaster. 
meatpieboy:
Give it a shot. You're also in a position to make a fresh coconut cream pie, which would be incredible.
