Winter is here

Cold hands, cold toes
so cold icicles that froze on the tip of your nose
Winter is here, fall was there
Cover you head, dont leave it bare.
The leaves keep falling, falling from their place of birth
Because in order to come back again, you must decay into the earth.
So stay warm, stay dry
Summer is coming, dont you cry

Boom Boom Blat

I have made it to week three!
the tide of nagging voices inside my head has begun to subside
I no longer dream in white ear bud stereo with my
thumb subconsciously in a holding pattern over the click wheel
No more poking my thigh when I want to hear something new
I have saved hours not having to untangle wires while crossing the street, barely escaping death
My iPod broke, little i big P and now I am free, but itching for melody

Transmission 2030 part 1

Its the year 2030. My slowly aging body is slowed down by the suit i wear. Space is cold, but the natural resources of Mars help keep Earth running. Being a space miner isn't the best job, the endless hours take a toll on the mind. Jack, the mining droid thats in charge of our drilling unit is constanly pushing us to drill father and harder and every time he speaks, his voice echos through our brain, causing pain to shoot through our eyes. I would never think that droids would be running the human race, but thats what we get for advancement in technology. The wild winds on Mars causes the process of mining to go much slower and the constant yelling of Jack makes work much harder. Security Droids guard our work site from alien species and though we haven't seen one, stories from other units makes us glad we havnt seen them yet. Arcauim is the resource we are looking for. It runs our power and nuclear plants. Gasoline is no more. We now run on hydrogen and Earth has changed ever since the 2008 elections. Price of gas rose up to 5 dollars a gallon and then in 2013, scientist discovered Arcaumim. Thats when the age of space began

Memories

This morning Tim reminded me about how music can be so closely tied to memories and emotions. He explained how a Bon Iver song made him sad, because he used to listen to it while going through a rough period in life. Music is a pretty amazing gift.

Stress

Over the past few weeks, the stress has really been pounding me down. I remember one morning i got up and was so stressed out it was to the point to where i had to talk to someone, so i called my mom and dad and told them i was at the end of my rope, cause work was not giving me enough hours and i have so many bills to pay. I got turned down from two jobs and the job market here in Bellingham is rough. Well tuesday i felt like i should look up in Skagway, Alaska and try to get a job up there, so i checked the Skagway chamber of commerce. Sure enough there were like three jobs that looked like i could possibly enjoy doing, so i emailed them my resume. Sure enough, one of the jobs asked me to fill out an application and i did. I faxed it back to them the very same day and now i am just waiting to here from them. It might be that i have to leave as soon as next week. Please keep me in your prayers.

Mornings with Fred

Ok so every morning i woke up when Fred was up has been interesting. Yesterday i put on an artist and he named the album but couldnt name the artist. Then derik who was sitting on the green chair said the artist, but Fred kept trying to name that artist. We were like "fred. derik just said the artist". It was funny. Then this morning, the day being May 14, fred starting rapping with Bob marley on. Then he threw on his homemade music singing about organic ketchup and texas and meeting a girl.

The Sub Is Crazy

Speaking from past experience, the sub is a crazy place to live. First, and most importantly, the combination of regular residents adds a little crazy. The hospitality of those who live there brings in new faces. The sub's connection with the INN causes it to be the host of many-a-small group and more. Good folks live there, good community indeed!
