See Sarah Procrastinate
Procrastinate! Sarah... Procrastinate!
(did you ever hear Tom do the cover to that song? - it's so cool)
Fabulous Thunderbirds... yeah, I like 'em. That sounds like a lot of work.
Have you ever known someone you really like and feel like you can have a real friendship with them, only to discover they're sitting around jamming to Jennifer Lopez or Michael Boulton (sp?! Like I care.) That's happened to me a few times. I'm not going to lie: If I find out someone likes music that aggravates me, I tend to shy away from them.
Why, yes! I am shallow!
Hey... you could offer mudbaths to passing (read: stuck in mud) tourists!
Careful where you stand, when you're pushing the mule.
One the other hand every single one of my ex's had great taste... Go figure.
You may be in danger of Slog-by Shootings however...
*burn barrel?*
If you can't find a barrel, but can find a pipe and shovel you can dig a hole to burn stuff in. Dig a hole with an upwardly angled trench radiating out from it and place the pipe in the trench. Recover the pipe, but not the hole. The pipe will allow the fire to be aerated from the bottom.
If your careful with what you burn you can add some rocks and make this a cook out pit too.
Find a crucible and you have a metal forge.
I've already done this (many moons ago). The burn barrel keeps the paper from flying around and setting the woods on fire.
A metal forge might be nice. Maybe I could learn to make new pump housings.
You could always line the pit with rocks in a conical fashion to make a smaller smoke hole.
Actually just go find a barrel, if you listen to me you'll be building a kiln.
I'd love to build a kiln. In fact, I'd love to build an outdoor bread oven. Do you know how?
I'm a gardener in training, what's heeling in?
Please reject my application. That way, I can start the Under-underachievers of Gather group. (Membership will be moderated, of course.)
You could still kick me out, you know...
So yeah, they're pretty cool. Or freaky. And highly not invisible.
If you need lessons, I'll share all my tips.
Cena - I've written two short stories in my life, and the first one was on procrastination - which was the topic my HS English teacher gave me when I told him (the day before it was due) that I hadn't thought of a topic yet... I got an "A", too.
