Old ladies, eh.
How come you're all in bed by ten? Or not on the computer, anyway. Com'on. Even my family is still up. And when I have tomorrow off, too.
Edit: I never cared too much for love. It was all a bunch of mush that I just did not want. -pink. Catchy song that.
Most girlsEdit: I don't like Destiny's Child. Their music kinda sucks. Especially Beyonce solo. But their song independant woman, yeah, that scores points.
edit: Cause I'm not most girls -pink. I'm just going to have to keep editing this since there's no one to swap comments with.
Edit: Yesterday I lay on my roof and got a spectacular view of the thunderstorm. Man, I love thunderstroms. With all that lightening. And the deep thunder rolling and powerful across the sky. Most the time it was just sprinkling lightly. Which tickled as it bit through my tank-top. I stayed there for quite a while. Until the real torrential rain began to fall. Then I climbed down and closed my windows, put on a sweater, and settled down with a book. Yup, gotta love thunderstorms.
Edit:Heh. Except my farm had hay down.
Edit: Sorry. I just remember that I don't usually like it when people post song lyrics. I generally scan them, at best. I'm against blogs with too many lyrics, too many book reviews, to much, "Haa, lol, yup,". Then again, I only posted a couple lines. I suppose if I'm going to break my own rules of thumb I may as well make it for a truly good song, eh? If anyone actually knows the song (which I suspect you don't) she only wants real love, not just a guy for his money and mercedes. But you don't know that.
A note to simple plan. Why should it happen to anybody else?
Clearly I need to find another train of thought beyond the radio.
Edit: Another thought for Simple plan. Not that it's not a good song, mind you. It is one of your better singles. Although "perfect" still takes the cake. I just didn't want to hear you moaning about it. Although I suppose maybe that's how you felt about it. Whatever. K, this is the last edit about music. Or is it about music?
Edit: Remember that mid-life crisis kit I made my Mom? Tyler wanted to put the pink streaks in his hair today. I wasn't here. I think we'll both do it tomorrow. That's be fun. I'll shower first though. At current my hair is actually back to nearly an inch long and it's greasy enough that I can make it stick straight on end. Great blast! Who thinks Tyler should let me try give him dreadlocks? You're only a nine year old boy once. And then only half of us get to be that. I, for example, never have been and never shall be. Maybe I should get myself dreadlocks. I wonder if you could grow them out, or if I would have to shave me head? That's one thing I wouldn't do, shave my head. Unless, maybe a friend had cancer, or something.
Edit: Is this the longest canucka post yet, or what? Shame that it's so pointless. Somebody beat me, and make it worthwhile. I should be wasting all this writing time on e-mails...
Edit:Goodnight.

 | You scored as Fundamentalist. Fundamentalism represents a movement in opposition to Modernism, stressing the highest importance on foundational religious tradition. Science has brought on corruption of society. God is real and is watching. Scripture leaves little room for interpretation; man is God’s creation. About a quarter of the population in the U.S. is classified as Fundamentalist.

here's what i figure...
Eventually, in the various courses of our various existences, we will become too busy to spend a lot of time online. We shall procure such things as have been called "lives". We will have significant others, bratty little ones, pets, homes, cars, and other such things. Or we may be dead. In which case, we couldn't get online either. Therefore, we shall pursue this online thing with gusto while we can!
How's
that, Kris? Works for me...

maybe.
Here's what I figure. Maybe Cor will move in with me. Maybe essy and (more particulatily) elly will go to bibleschool. Maybe all (both) of you will have far less time for the internet. Or less time, on one part, less access, on the other. And then maybe, just maybe, I'll be able to keep up with you.
Don't mind me. I need sleep.

let's see. It's raining, soggy, and wet. The news makes me grumpy. Wet and grumpy about describes today. It's so slow, I'm terribly bored, and reading about politics just makes me mad today.
How was your voting experience, Kris? What was your take on that referendum issue, which I don't completely understand, but know it has something to do with changing the electoral system?

Windows radio keeps playing ads for e-harmony. Where you can get a free profile and meet free people. And then it has sappy couples extoling the virtues of internet dating. I want to puke. But I'm enjoying the music too much to turn it off.

Oh, Canada,

Friend to our north
Seized by Liberal decree
The revolution must begin

The Libranos are so wrong
It's time to set it right

?
You have no idea how tempted I am to vote for the Liberals in the upcoming election. So Gordon can get arrested in the States for drunk driving again.
But, no. I'm not being sarcastic. I wouldn't vote for them federally. But I'm thinking about it for this time around. Does anybody care to talk me out of it?
I just don't think I'll vote. Period.
I believe in young people voting. And it would be hard to preach that if I don't live it myself (I've been lecturing my kid sis). But, really. I don't like any of the options. And I'm not even registered yet.
But really, the NDP? I really think I'd rather have the Liberals at least keeping our deficit somewhere that doesn't make my breathing laboured. If that means larger class sizes. Or less doctors on call. That just the way it has to be.

rooftops and grasslands
wave after wave
on they roll
a multitude of colours
yet all the same
out of sight into the endless landscape of
the praires
-----------------------
beautiful - maybe
if one likes that sort of thing
or if like elly and essy you were
brought up amongest the endless grass
or if like nigel you were begotten in the city
miles of housetops
out your bedroom window
everymorning
----------------------
boring - certainly
to one born and raised
among hills and mointains
trees and waterfalls
alpine meadows and
mountain lakes
stiff climbs
huckleberries hidden away
narrow loggings roads
used as
long sledding hills
for those with a truck to take them back up
----------------------
it's homesick i am for the mountains
stuck here in the brown city
far away from orchards
and freezing spring runnoff
---------------------
and yet i could learn to love this land
if i was away from the houses
the wind in my face
the endless horizens
three weather systems visable at once
the colours that look the same
suddenly jumping out to declare
their differances
sunrises and sunsets stretched from sky to sky
the donkeys pumping oil
elevators marking half forgotten towns
yes, i could learn to love it here
if i was away from these dang
-----------------------
houses!

Forgive me your link on my blog. It's new. And at first I typed in theknitwit. I now realize it's theeknitwit. But it's not changing. So maybe it just needs time. So for now you have a different blog. *G*. And it's funny.
But yeah, I liked being able to jump from all your guys' blogs to whichever one of us I wanted to view. So I'm adding them to mine.
Edit: K. It's all better now. And I figured out how to add titles. So you've got 'em. But they're random. And I'll probably change them all the time.
Speaking of which. Cor, I'm trying to figure out what "8 hours and counting" means one yours...?
