No. Hot. Water. I've never taken a straight cold shower in my life, though I've "needed" one many times. Done painting, Tai Chi class in and hour. No. Hot. Water ...

I joined the all-you-can-rent-two-at-a-time thingee. But I'll be cancelling because it's a fifteen-dollars-first-month-thirty-every-month-afterward deal. So I have 30 DAYS to rent everything worth watching in their store. Shouldn't be too hard. But I do have a list of movies I wouldn't want to pay full price on to go through. I started with "Stranded" (2002, kinda like "Mission to Mars") which i watched last night,...

Those 35 wheelbarrows of muck worked the hell out of my back Thursday. It's not at all sore in a "I hurt my back" kinda way -- it's more of a "Whoa! I really gave those muscles a workout" kinda thing. And it feels great. I just don't know if I really want to go tubing with Christina next Friday. I was the Sargeant at Arms at the North Ridge meeting tonight. About time I show upa t a meeting or two, now that I'm...

Okay ... this is not for shock value, believe it or not. I was listening to Exile by Enya just now, and my mind wanders through connected thoughts quickly. I was thinking about the phrase "Who can quell my passion?" and thought what sort of being would have such passion that could not be quenched? And what if such a being after longing and pushing through life finally found release? Would this not be the equivalent...

Today, I have to tell my daughter that we can no longer make up visitation times. I see her twice a week, and if Christina plans something else, I have to tell her no or give up my time. Her mother insists I do this, and insists it's between me and my daughter because she doesn't want to be the bad guy, and when I rearrange times, she doesn't get to see her as much. Her mother has a point, but a long time ago (age...

Something's kinda bothering me. PLEASE someone play Dr. Laura and give me some advice or insight. My daughter's mom called me Sunday because she's concerned that when Christina and I make arrangements to see here a different time (usually for far less time than planned), it takes away the little time she gets to see her because she spends so much time with her friends. I can understand this. Her solution that I...

Here's step one in my catch-up plan. I've just been so busy building shopping carts ... I have been violated. After choir practice last week, the choirmaster insisted on going through my folder (bindr actually, one I own and organized myself) to get rid of any music I "didn't need". I grumbled a protest that I would do it myself, as I like to keep a few select pieces and practice or even just sing them from tiem to...

http://kentropolis.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=180 Why can't we just see that military occupation is NOT war, even if there is resistance? The war was won quickly, and to this day VERY FEW people died in the conflict. But every terrorist or target that gets killed gets magically added to the death toll for Bush's "war crimes." Right or wrong reasons, idiot or not, no one will admit now, even after free elections...
