(no subject)

Yesterday, at work, I found a tiny mushroom
growing in the grass underneath of a
picnic table.

All by itself, surrounded by green.

Stories from my childhood tell me that rings
of mushrooms were meant for faeries. That they
were sacred places.

What does a single mushroom mean?

One of the things that a lot of the fluffy
bunny people don't seem to realise is that the
"freaks" who worked in those sideshows were
happy with what they did. They didn't really have
any other avenues available to them and felt that
they had every right to cash in on what they
were born with.

It always made me a bit angry that a lot of
the shows were closed down for "exploitative"
reasons. And the people who worked at them
basically had no where else to go after having
their work taken away from them by well meaning
people.

A peeve of mine, I apologise for the sudden
rant. I've done quite
a bit of research on the subject and will devour
any piece of information I stumble across
regarding it.

An ex roommate of mine also used to have
trouble with brushing his teeth because of
his gag reflex. You could walk past the bathroom
when he was in there and hear the *hack!*
and then him begin to swear, quietly so the
rest of us wouldn't hear.

It wasn't really a rant... well, I don't see it as a rant as it seemed to be what I always thought but phrased much more cogently and eloquently :-)

Ahh... so I am not the only tootbrush gagger... I feel so much better now..

Not sure what time it is with you.. but for me 'tis 3.45am and I think I shall sleep now.

Good talking to you.

Hope we can talk again some time :-)

Cogent and eloquent?

I don't think I've ever been referred to
like that. This makes me smile.

Wheeee!

I merely speak the truth (as my journal explains)
and you are ever so welcome.

Keep smiling :-)

I smile because it helps to keep the
ickiness away from me. Something that I've
been trying to learn for a long, long time.
Maybe not even something that I've fully
grasped yet.

And you. You do not write in your journal
nearly enough. :)

I know... I am a bad boy :(

The whole idea was that it would help me over a little case of writers block... but I still find myself staring at the empty space and wondering what to say...

I have long and detailed internal monologues but it doesn't seem right to pin them down in my journal...

Must try harder :)
