You startled me
In not so much your words,
But your approach.
It was fast
And filled my head
With nonsense words
And warmth
When you weren’t there.
So, I went under
And swallowed
The surge. And above
My head is swirling water.
My hand slapping at the surface,
Desperate for structure
Steep stone. Then
My fingers finding rooted edge
Holding ground,
Finally. Almost out of breath
When I pulled myself up.
Entwined in mine, fingers
Not rooted mass, but flesh.
That took the shape
Of mysteries ability
To suddenly deliver me
Upon the edge was all
That I was meant to be.

heart full
Today on my way home from class, I stopped off at the petrol station for some petrol. I paid on my card which wasn’t a lot, and then as I was getting into my car, I saw an old man walking past the building. He had a red and green stripy jumper which was frayed at the ends. He was also wearing some jeans that were dirty and had holes all over.
I sat there and became intrigued by him because I didn’t know what he was doing, so as I sat there and watched him, he continued doing what he set out to do.
He walked past the trash cans and first picked out a cup with some drink still in it (one of the cups that you get from burger king that has coke in it). He then walked over to the next trash can and pulled out the end of a half eaten sandwich. In my shock horror, he ate it and then went to sit on the wall to drink the drink he had found.
I felt sad, I wanted to give him my last $4 that I had but I was told when I was younger that you should never give people money, you should give them something they need or can use because that way, if they had an addiction, they would not be able to use the money for their addiction. So I went into the shop and bought a chicken sandwich from their deli counter and then walked out of the building.
The guy was still sat at the wall drinking his drink so I walked up to him and asked him if he would like this sandwich. He thanked me and said that he was hungry.
I should of felt good after that, doing something for someone else but all I could think of is where his next meal will come from or where in fact he will sleep tonight.

Jennicula,
Thank you for sharing your story. Although it only appeared briefly, I was lucky enough to have caught it.
Once upon a time, for me, that was the best part of this place...having my words related back to me from another's perspective.
And it never mattered to me who said it, just that it meant something to the writer.

Don't let anyone tell you how to live your life. Hold your head up high and be proud of who you are. If you've had a shitty day and you feel like people just don't want you to be happy, and when you find yourself struggling to make it through the day, just keep on believing and keep the faith. Also, from personal experience, don't push people away. When they say they want to help and that they are there for you, let them in. Believe me, I know how fucking scary that thought is, but don't shut others out.

Sometimes, when you look back on stuff in your life, you know, the crap that makes you shake your head and say, "Holy shit, what the Hell was I thinking?" it's part of what makes you - you.
I'm not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. I have made small mistakes and really big, fucking scary mistakes. Would I change those mistakes and blunders?
No. Wanna know why?
Because they make me - me. They help make up the person that I am, what I've learned the hard way. Hopefully I've learned from my mistakes and have become a better person for it. And, hopefully I don't repeat those same mistakes. Although, sometimes I repeat variations of certain ones, but I'm working on that. :)

aloft
Blazing against the sun
like locusts,
samaras swarm the sky
and skitter to an earthly end,
dry
like clever words.
I want to make them fly up,
flip heaven upside down
and dance across the top of hell
and sing your thoughts
to the sound of thunder
that you love so well,
rip open the littered sky
and bathe in the light
or draw across the firmament
the blanket of the night.
In only a day they have
covered the ground,
their brief flight
yielding nothing permanent
on infertile land,
a fleeting moment of swarming glory
that calls to mind our own
short story:
Diamonds and petals,
the loom and the light,
the inkdark moon, foxfire marsh,
an open, waiting hand.
Clever winged seeds
of childhood reminiscent--
and like the idiot grown-up heart,
as stubbornly indehiscent.

Electric Blue
…today I saw a ulysses butterfly it was in our yard and settled to feed on our hibiscus. They really are fantastically beautiful things, the electric blue is amazing, however as they sit with their wings closed they are rather nondescript and dull. Sometimes people are like that, from the outside they seem unappealing but within there hides an amazing beauty for those lucky enough to see it. I hope you appreciate beauty in all things, and look for it perhaps where others miss it.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.
I read your post again and suddenly without warning memories of construction paper filled my head. I remembered all the lop-sided flowers my girls made when they were young. Bright blue, yellow and pink flowers that were cut out with blunt end scissors would fill the windows to decorate for Easter. An occasional bunny was attempted but those usually ended up looking like creatures from a horror movie. Flowers were so much easier. I can close my eyes and hear the paper being cut into petals. I can smell the Elmer’s glue squirted on in huge blobs to attach each misshapen petal to form the flowers. We had a huge arts and crafts box full of wonderful items just waiting for their imaginations to turn into something wonderful. In my mind I see my daughters, as they once were, small, blond little girls sitting on the floor surrounded by scraps of paper and other art supplies. They would create their masterpieces then proudly show each other. Oh and Lord the messes that would ensue if the glitter made an appearance. Now, the box is forgotten. I’m not really sure where it even is anymore. The few flowers so lovingly created that survived are faded and dusty and high on a shelf they sit. Time marches on, so many things get left behind.
Today was the first Easter I spent alone. I don’t think it really upset me until I remembered the construction paper flowers. Of course I understand that my daughters are growing up and have lives of their own. But understanding doesn’t make it any easier to accept. I miss my little girls in their frilly Easter dresses. I miss the laughter that filled the house when they found what the Easter Bunny left for them. And I miss making the damn flowers.

how could so many people miss the signs. prior bad acts should be made public and allowed to used in court to help keep dangerous people off the streets.
Ooooh, those lyrics are nice, Smoke!
Carrie, you're gonna do what with my flip flop? I don't even know what that means diaper dive or something. You won't last in the humidity anyways. You will have no time to smack me and even if you do, you're hands will be so sweaty that they won't even be able to hold the flip flop. It will just fly out of your hands into the never never.
It was in the 80's here today. I was sick and I had to drive dude to the doctor an hour away so I just sat in the car and waited on him. I fell asleep with the windows rolled up and when I woke up I thought I was gonna choke.
O_O
At least it wasn't August because, ummmm, I'd have melted. O_o
Just wanna say, I thrive in humidity. I love it.
No, you've gotten too used to the cold. The coldness has spoilt you.
Hahaha! I straighten my hair in the mornings and when I get to work, I have little ringlets of curls everywhere.
You'd think I'd just accept my curly hair and deal with it but nooooo!!!
Bye Carrie! Say hello to the family! Have a nice night!
*waves to Carrie's Mr. Bloke*
Later Carrie! Have fun. Though I don't know what you are gonna watch. Nothing good is on.
I did see Lie To Me last night though, and I thought it was pretty neat!
Carrie,
Tell Annie to make me a make believe snow cone and use her imagination as to what to use for snow!
I complain about the hell that is South Georgia in the Summer but honestly, I don't think I'd survive in snow. Nope.
I had a nice hot bath, and now he's watching a zombie movie.
*squirms*
That show does look interesting. I like that dude. He was in Hulk wasn't he?
I have found a new old band to fall in love with and make out to, The Kills.
Just shoutin' that from the rooftops....
Yes, he was!
The first thing I saw him in was Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.
I LOVE that movie so hard.
Well, pooh!
My little man is now pouting because I won't go watch tv with him.
I miss Prison Break and The Mentalist! Since AI everything is all messed up!
Smoke,
You'd better go watch tv with your little impressionist.

It's infuriating that they're not and jurors don't get to hear anything about past crimes.
I want ice cream so bad right now.
Bwahhahahaha! That was freakin' hilarious! He gets that from you, ya know? Those impressions? Jules knows what I'm talking about! Hahaha! LHM is just like his Aunt Solly! He can do a Gerard like nobody's business. And when he does the Frank, he slings his air guitar around his neck. Bwah!
Well, I guess I better go get a shower and sit down with him. Will it be Danny Phantom? Or Family Guy? Or Ben 10?
Later guys!
Hope everyone has a nice rest of the night and a lovely Friday!
♥
Nite, Smoke! Sweet Dreams! Hope you are all better tomorrow because we gotta go see Last House on the Left tomorrow night. Good times.
Jules, I'm guessing you don't have any ice cream.
Definitely go for Family Guy. :) Have a great night!
Heehee, I have an ice cream bar. I really shouldn't. I've been eating so badly lately and stress eating. I need to stop that.
But...you've been really stressed, so I think you deserve a reward. Indulge. Eat the ice cream bar. Be the ice cream bar.
I think I'm gonna go attempt to find something on TV that's even lamer than what I'm watching now.
This should be fun!!
Nite, Guys!
Happy Friday, Ergo!
Good night, Solly!
And a good night from me, too.
I just wanted to come in and post that poem (those are my thoughts on this whole eastern/western science crisis-type thing) and then bail. But it was nice to talk to you guys. :D
Thanks for the well-wishes and I will update on my little she-male, my Two-Spirit Dog. :D
Mayo,
I leave you with this lyric:
I'll be the man with the broom
If you'll be the dust in the room
And there's only so much you can hide
Before I corner you
The Kills
I just love that line!
Man with the broom or the dust in the room? Hmmm...
Have an awesome night!
Love to YOU Always,

9:16, it's too bad. Jurors practically have to be born in a bubble nowadays in order to NOT hear all the stuff about people that commit crimes.
*sigh*
*shakes head*
It's never really over. I knew they would be back.
And with what? More poetry of course.
9:26, your foot should go IN their ass.
They never said they were leaving. It's nice to see how much you missed them though.
Hey everyone.
Just got back from a school concert. Sunshine had a solo and sang it beautifully. Yep, I'm a proud mom!
They were not missed.
I think they saw Amyranth was on and they planned it like this. Why else would they start with the poetry again? Think about it.
I don't think Amyranth was bothered by one poem.
Were you Amyranth?
They weren't bothering anyone at all.
Hallo Elena!
Glad to hear Sunshine did well! That girl's got lots of good, solid nerve. I get embarassed when Mister catches me singing along to my MP3 Player.
I think they did it TO bother her but she is a bigger person than that.
Also did you notice how another anon was talking to Amyranth and they just ignored both of them?
NOW it's time to see a return of OPJ, Wendy, BC, Ergo along with Amyranth.
I'm glad that "poem" got stuck on the page behind this one.
hey elena and amy

While reading this wannabe
science-geek rhyme
ask yourself:
Is this metaphor or paradigm?
The wu ji before it
decided to shatter
Big Bang before quantum
the source of all matter
then self-born tai ji
an electrical balance
the attraction of each
to the other one's valence
the system, organ
the tissue, the cell
the yin of its yolk
and the yang of its shell
the constance of mass,
fluctuation of weight
the octet bagua,
the atom's rule of eight
endless ebbing and surging
of homeostasis
from jin-ye to bones
all of water's good graces
an hourglass of jing
and the pre-heaven essence
is the same DNA's
unavoidable senescence
the unthinkable distance
between the nuclear core
and the electrons' first shell
on the farthest-flung shore
urges you into
the truth's cold embrace:
You are not mostly water.
You are mostly just space.
When asked about light,
or the constance of C,
my answer is thus:
MC squared equals qi.

Hey Amy and BC
Ok I gotta be a proud mom a bit more....Sunshine was voted most beautiful out of her class for the yearbook.
Aw congrats about your daughter elena! And I got your package. Thank you so much for the books :)
Thanks BC
Hope you like them. Just let me know when you're done with those cause I've got more.
if they only knew the type of person they were dealing with.
You have more of them elena? X_x
I was actually happy when I slashed the box opened because it had a couple of the Buffy novels that I had lost a long time ago, so for a few seconds, I squealed in excitement to see that there were the ones I needed. But thanks so much for the offer. It'll take me a while to read through all of them.
Well just let me know when you want more BC.
I loved those books. They are really good reads.
*thinks she heard her name called*
*could just be hearing things though*
Hello Mayo, SS, Amy, Sweetcheeks, Ergo, Elena, TJ, various anons, various watchers and various lurkers!

Hiya sugarplum, how are you? *smothers with ice cream flavored sloppy kisses*
Elena is awesome to have sent me lots and lots of Buffy novels since I'm a big Buffy fan :D
^^I had ordered a turtle brownie and ice cream from the pizza place earlier, so that's why my kisses are ice cream flavored ^_^
Thanks Wendy I'm pretty darn proud of Sunshine.
Yay for Buffy!!!! You're correct, sweetcheeks. Elena is awesome! As are you!
How was your day? Did you have school today?
You should be, Elena! I'm proud for you!
*big hug*
Sweetcheeks: Oh no... did you have to mention turtles?
:(
There has been a turtle tragedy. My poor Jumps has moved on the big turtle pond in the sky. I have yet to tell Bre (Jumps was originally her turtle) and tell Seven too. After all the work they did on the new pond.
I'm going to miss my "red neck" girl. She really was a funny turtle. I've had her for over 10 years. Henry's going to be very lonely now.
Thanks sugarplum. You too.
Yep, I did have school, and today was my last day. I'm on spring break as of now. I had a test earlier today, but my last class was canceled because my professor didn't show up, so classes ended earlier.
Although I have to admit, my morning got off to a really irritable start. Last night I had also straightened my hair, but it looks frizzy, so I might get my hair done tomorrow for it.
How are you doing?
Aw I'm sorry to hear about your turtle sugarplum. That's awful :(
The brownie I ordered was called that. I think it's because of the caramel, chocolate syrup and walnuts they added on it.

I'm sorry to hear your day got off to a bad start too. But, I'm glad your on spring break now!!!! Do you have any special spring break plans?
Did you decided what color you want to dye your hair?
Anon: I think you're going to have to do a lot of bumping to get us to the next page! You might require a Nightie Nurse for youself to deal with hip injuries. I'll try to find a male nightie nurse for you! Unless, you prefer a female nurse, of course!
Male please!
But I will not be bumping alone. We will all be bumping together. Let's make it an effort.

I don't know, anon. Can we do the hussle instead?!
Where did Amy and Elena go? Perhaps they danced down the sidewalk right into Seven's door. I shall go check!
Spring break plans? Um let's see....I will definitely catch up on some sleep, that's for sure, lol. Maybe go out on some days and see what's happening around town.
As for hair color, I think I might go for that golden chestnut color, if not, maybe an auburn, but I'll see if I can get a professional recommendation or something.
I think one good thing happened this morning. There's this guy who works at the college newspaper as a writer. I walked passed him on the way to class, but I gave a few glances at him, and for sure, he was indeed cute, but I didn't have time to say hi or anything.
Sorry about your turtle, Wendy.
Thank you, 10:59. In addition to being funny she was a pretty girl. And, smart too! Thank you.
:)
Hiya anon. How are you doing?
Gotta go check the washer. BRB
What kind of turtle was she? I'm considering one as a pet, but all I've ever had in the past are really small ones, that would fit in the palm of my hand. I did have one named Henry once.
Sweetcheeks: Catching up on sleep is always good! I'm liking the idea of the golden chestnut color more and more. I do think it would look great with your coloring!
So, a new lust bunny prospect, eh? That's always good too!
How was your day, 10:59? Did you have a nice one?
I had a good one. The weather was nice. I'm sorry for the way you had to spend yours.
This new lust bunny prospect will be a co-lust bunny sugarplum, lol. I try to pick up a copy of the newspaper whenever I can because I like reading what's going on on campus. He has dark hair and a nice goatee ^__^
And thanks for the hair color suggestions
She was a red eared slider turtle, 10:59. She was the size of a bottle cap when Bre first found her! She grew to weigh a ton!
Just look at those claws she had!
Jumps
Jumps' cute little nose!
The funniest thing is that I thought she was a he until last spring...
when HE laid eggs!
What type of turtle are you thinking of getting? A land turtle or an aquatic one?
I'm still here just had to chat with Sunshine who just got home.
I'm not sure. I like aquariums though. I suppose I should research it a bit more.
He has dark hair and a nice goatee ^__^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sounds perfect for you, sweetcheeks! Co~lust bunny works fine for me. I don't know it will for him; but, for me it does!
;)
You absolutely have to pick up one of those school papers!
Thank you, again, 10:59. I must admit, I am getting a little tired of going to funerals. I know. That's a horrible thing to say. They can just be so depressing. Especially when it's one (wonderful) man who's lost 3 family members within a year.
I just hope his funeral isn't the next one I have to attend. He's such a good man. I hope he can find a way to enjoy a few years of living with peace of mind.
He was always so worried about what would happen to his two down's children if he died...
That was on his mind for nearly 60 years. He deserves a few worry free years. At least, I think he does.
i used to play with the turtles in the creek behind my house when i was a kid, but what i really wanted was a snake. garter snakes have the cutest faces.
i'm sorry to hear about your loss, wendy. it's always sad to have to say good-bye to a dear animal friend.
She must be thrilled, Elena! Or, is she embarrassed by all the attention?
10:59 ~ Just remember that aquatic turtles will grow. One day they're in that aquarium, the next day you need to make your bathtub the aquarium!
Thank you TJ.
*hugs*
It's good to finally catch up with you, again!
Garter snakes, huh? You sound like my brother! He had a whole nest of them at our fishing camp! I was never particularly fond of them, myself.
:P
I much preferred the turtles and the baby alligators! Oh... and the huge black grasshoppers! Those wer gorgeous!
She is a bit embarrassed by the attention Wendy.
TJ I loved to play with snakes. Matter of fact I still do. We have lots of them here around the farm.
Hi anon
It makes me glad that I'm in school then sugarplum ;D
I'm glad to read the paper because the opinions are not censored, which is great for me!
Hiya tj
why didn't we play with them last year when i was visiting, elena? shoot! :)
wendy, i used to go to the pet store and ask to hold the little darlings. i loved the way they would knot themselves around my fingers. as for grasshoppers, i used to try to catch them...and then they would spit tabacco juice on your hand! ew! lol
hello, bc! enjoying your spring break already?
We should have TJ
They are black with orange rings around their necks and they are very fiesty. They don't like to be picked up.
Okay, you snake playing with people are freaking me out!
Unless....
;)
Sweetcheeks: Those are the best kind of newspapers! Oh, did you get the last e~mail I sent? I sent some Beseech songs to you.
it would have been fun to try to do so then, elena! *hee*
Unless....
;)
*heh*
Snakes are fun. All wiggly.
I like them!
you have got a wicked mind, don't you 6?
TJ: These grasshoppers were polite. They never spat!
;)
They were jet black and had either a red or yellow stipe on the side of their "face". They made the most beautiful swamp music at night! Along with the other swamp creatures, that is!
And, you will never convince me that snakes are cuddly creatures. Have no fear, though. I never shot the harmless ones. I only blew the heads off of the water moccasins/cotton mouths! Thems vicious!

I am a shitty poet

I only do it for attention
to create tension
That was my version of Kapunua's poem.

I'm enjoying it a little bit tj. I don't have to sleep early for a while. Woo.
Sugarplum, email you said? I shall check it out right now!
Some people post poetry t get into Mayo's tighty whiteys
But the rest of us say long live the NIGHTIES
Ohhh..... if we're going to Cha Cha we need music!
You stopped and smiled at me, asked if I cared to dance. I fell into your open arms and I didn't stand a chance
I love Dusty!!!!
i don't like the bumping. i'd rather read real comments.

cha cha cha!
anon, go play with some snakes -- might be good for you, Elena thinks they're fun
Sorry toujours but I am on a mission.
Besides.... I wrote a few poems too in case you didn't notice. :)
uh TJ the animals don't talk back do they?
I don't want to play with snakes
Kapunua's poem s shit..... Them's the breaks!
LOL 11:53! I'm going to have to give you an A for effort and another A for making me laugh!
Plus, it rhymes! You get yet another A!!!
Sweetcheeks: I sent it yesterday, I think!
Thanks' Wendy, I knew you would like that one. :)
*puts more kahlúa in her coffee*
not usually, elena. *heh*
anon, it's good to be motivated, i suppose, but really. please do sit down and stop running into the walls, ok?
I whine about how nothing is fair....
I whine about my dog and no one cares
By Kapunua
Well Toujours I have a fan. You don't have to like it. Others do. I am not running into walls I am breaking them down.
Pay attention to my sick dog
I don't care what anyone thinks
I will keep posting shitty poems
even though everyone knows they stink
Kapunua
Hey guys I gotta go get Mayo's next vacation stop ready. Can't leave him in Big Dick's anymore.
Nice talking to you all.
Take care
I try to run the blog with poems thinking I am so high and mighty
But the truth is, everyone loves the NIGHTIES.
Kapunua
I think this blog is my stage
even my name takes up half the fucking page
Kapunua
Carrie you can ask anyone here the same thing. And we will all give you at least five reasons. Do you even have to ask? I don't think so.
*yawns*
i think the toddler will run out of puff soon
good night elena, and hello carrie. :)
Hey carrie. Take care elena. Wendy, I didn't get your email :/
If she posted five poems would she deserve this kind of reaction?
K hating anon, it's ironic, I do see one person responding to her poem and to her dog story (which I hope turns out for the best).....
YOU.
I do not have any splinters from sitting on the fence. I like Kapunua and I think this is so stupid. Maybe I didn't "get" the poem but she has a right to post them on the blog of someone who writes poetry himself. And I'm sorry about her dog. No bones about it. (Haha). I don't care if you all hate her or are on the fence. This is stupid and I would rather read twenty poems than all this hate.
~The other Carrie~
Elena: They talk back to me! Ummm.... is that unusual or something?
Awww... that reminds me of Billie Jean's, Ebony Joseph's and Tabby Mathew's vet. (Yes, I used two different vets for my critters.)
His name was Dr. Rogers. I miss him. I haven't seen him since Ebbie Joe died.
I have to go visit him, his wife and mother in law. They cried as much as I did when we had to put Billie Jean to sleep.
When we had to put Tabby Mathew (the kitty I raised from a newborn) to sleep, Dr. Rogers son sat with me and held hand.
That beautiful young man was killed, murdered, by "friends" the night before Mardi Gras. I forget the year...
He was 18 and his parents did all the right things. They knew where he was going and who he was going there with. They knew what he did and the company he kept. That was what was so horrible about this crime. The four people that beat this young man, then wrapped him in sheets and threw him off of an overpass, were people the Roger family knew. Two of them had grown up next door to the Rogers family. Ate at their house. Went on fishing and camping trips with them....
These were people they knew. These were people they trusted.
These were the people who murdered their son. Why? Jealousy. Envy. That's what it all came down to. How horrible and pathetic is that?
That was such a sad funeral. I'll never forget the look on Dr. Rogers face when he saw me and my mother walk in. He hugged us both so tight. He stood there, holding my hand for a good 20 minutes. Introducing me and my mother to his son's real friends (the ones that didn't kill him) and classmates... Telling them all about Billie Jean, Ebony, Tabby and us.
Okay, I'm getting all mushy and sad again.
I better be off now.
It's been great chatting with you, Sweetcheeks, 10:59, Elena, TJ.
I'm sure I'll be in better mood next time!
Thanks for the bump, the hussle, the cha cha and the tighty whities laugh bumping anon!
Amy: I iz furious with you! Where the heck did you go?
Goodnight everyone! Sweet dreams to one and all!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Isn't this Kapunua's favorite game? Hmmm.

"Thanks for the bump, the hussle, the cha cha and the tighty whities laugh bumping anon!"
You are quite welcome Wendy.
You are a loud and proud woman who calls it like you SEE it and are not afraid to stand up to cunts.
I'm sorry for your sadness.... fell better soon.
No Carrie you can't because I don't go on Mayo's blog whining all about how tragic my life is complaining about my dog and writing poetry about it and whoring out for attention. So there is no need for you to talk about MY life. I have put nothing out there for you to talk about.
Goodnight sugarplum, sweet dreams *blows kisses*
RE is one of my favorite video games anon, but I can't believe how people are bitching and whining at the 'racist' content it supposedly has.
Mayo
So it’s time for you to move on. Well at least it’s time for you to leave Big Dick’s Halfway Inn. Now I’m not making you travel great distance yet. You are still gonna be in the Ozarks but a different location. Your next stop is a place I’ve wanted to stay for a long time but alas I’ve never gotten there so I’m sending you. I first saw this place in a book of old motels. You know one of those large books that show photos of great places that are mostly gone now. Well this place survived. Instead of a motel it’s run as a bed and breakfast now. The cabins are stone and just damn cute. Okay it’s called Rock Cottage Gardens and it’s located in Eureka Springs Arkansas. I’ve picked out the Aspen Cottage for you. I’m thinking this will be a great place for you to relax and do some writing. Perhaps catch up on some reading too. It has a Jacuzzi, Internet access and more. Lord, I sound like I’m selling time-shares. I just wanted to find you a nice place to stay.
So guess what? You are there just in time for the Ozark Mountain Hoe-Down. (insert joke here). No really lots of fun to be had. Music, food, special events. Think you’d have fun. And there are so many other thing to see in Eureka Springs. So just have fun.
You do realize don’t you that Elena really needs a vacation herself? But I can’t get away and you, my friend are on vacation.
One more thing you must check out is the ghost tour. I really like their website. I found this quote there….
"The most beautiful and most profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the power of all true science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive forms-this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true religiousness." - ALBERT EINSTEIN-
So yeah you know I’m really into the whole ghost thing and maybe that’s not your cup of tea but somehow I think you’re into trying new things and going for new experiences.
Well that’s it for now. Not sure where you’ll go on the next stop. I’m giving it some thought. Gotta keep my mind occupied somehow.
Take care, have fun.
Night Mayo
Elena (a postcard would be nice)

nope, your style is bullying and bitchin'
Is it racist? Taken purely in isolation, the sight of a white male gunning down hordes of semi-mindless African opponents has provoked many reactions. But although only a few reviews have sneaked out so far, they largely brush off the racism allegations: it's currently scoring 87% at review aggregation site metacritic.com. Even the BBFC, the group responsible for issuing age certifications in Britain, publicly declared the race controversy a non-issue.
Other commentators have been less charitable. One preview on Eurogamer.net slammed the game as playing "so blatantly into the old cliches of the dangerous dark continent and the primitive lust of its inhabitants that you'd swear the game was written in the 1920s".
That is what we know about Kapunua's FAVORITE game.
No, HER style is bullying and bitching. And whining. And playing racist video games.
Because youknow, she made up the phrase "KILLING ZOMBIES" and all, lol.
No, HER style is bullying and bitching. And whining. And playing racist video games.
don't kid yourself anon, it's your style too now.
You are just wishy washy.
That is what I respect in Wendy and Amy and OPJ.
It's called, "calling a cunt a cunt". And I'm sorry but some people need to be called the fuck out.

How cold it be my style? I have never played a racist video game. I have never played a VIDEO GAME.
And even if I did I would have stopped when I you know... GREW UP.

man, you are stupid
Sorry if I brought anyone down!
Hi Carrie! Hi other Carrie!
Life is short. Relax. Enjoy. Don't take insignificant things so seriously. Talk to different people. Get to know them before you accuse them of such passionate negative emotions as hate.
Disliking the continued bad behavior of person does not equal hating them.
Goodnight!
bump

CHA CHA CHA!
And even if I did I would have stopped when I you know... GREW UP.
when did you grow up?
12:27 ~ You just keep dancing! Don't let anyone get in the way of that cha cha!
oops, carrie, i was checking my email and didn't see your question until now.
actually, today we were at the shop, cleaning content from a client's house, and when we opened one of the boxes, we found reading material inside.
bedroom reading material.
*heh*
apparently, there's also a box of "attachments"
oh dear.
"Disliking the continued bad behavior of person does not equal hating them."
I know you don't HATE her Wendy because I think you are incapable of such an ugly emotion!
But unacceptable CONTINUED bad behavior does need to be called out.
We saw that the bad behavior continuing tonight. More poems to upset Amy.
Basically to bother most of the people here.
just.... thank you for standing up for what is right. Speaking out against what is wrong. It does not equal hate.
It just means you are not afraid to stand up to the porchies. i have to admire that. Most people do.
