on the wings of
My granny used to live in the government housing down on railroad street. The trains sounds were magnified in her apartment. We used to go out to the tracks and lay pennies down if we heard a train coming.
The sun is about to rise. I'm charging my video camera and I'm going to go take a shower. Then I might look for a funny outfit and go make some pointless video. I should jump on the trampoline in an old bridesmaid dress or something. It's 7:20 so I have a few hours before everyone gets up.
My Dad already left this morning. He went deer hunting with his BF, Luther. They want to get a deer because Luther just got a Deer jerky machine and they want to test it out. I told my dad to send me some deer jerky so if he does I'll share with everyone.
I'm trying to think of what footage I should get while I'm here in Adairsville. I have a car now so I can go anywhere. Let's see there's Snow Springs Baptist church, Boyd Mountain, St. Elmo, Downtown, the gray house, and so on but I can't think of any good reason to go to those places. My own back yard is where I spent most of my time growing up. A few years ago my brother built his house down the trail in the woods behind my parent's house. If I go down there now there is always to possibility of having my privacy interrupted my brothers family. why'd he havta invade my woods?

A Room of One's Own
I sat in the living room for a while and read about the poverty of student life and the kids ran in and out playing hide and seek.

The Last Picture Show
I've gotta call up Joy at some point so I can hang out before I head back. I should make Kiah be a little actress for me but she don't listen to nobody so ... yeah.
Yesterday Kiah and I were watching Peter Pan when Kiah decided to fix my hair. That would have been well and good except then she decided to cut it. She hacked off a juicy lock before I knew what happened. That little stinker, after I took her outside to jump on the trampoline all morning and everything.

Scary
This underwater earthquake business near Sri Lanka is terrifying. I've had those dreams before. The one where the big wave is coming, the wave bigger than buffalo's city hall. The wave that can destroy everything. Dreams like that are among the scariest that I've had so it's difficult to imagine the reality of such an occurrence. I guess it's something that has long been stored in the collective unconscious.

HOliday Reflections
I came across this picture again. I posted it a long time ago when I found it on my computer at home. [inlink]robin,105[/inlink]
I went and asked my Dad who they were and he told me the craziest story. The couple in the picture were my Granny's grandparents so I was right in guessing that they were my Great Great grandparents. Here is their story.
The woman in the picture was married twice. The man in the picture is her second husband, both of her husbands were drafted by the confederacy and fought in the civil war. Her first husband was injured in the war so she left North Carolina to go to Richmond and nurse him. She left her two children in the care of a neighboring family.
She got to Richmond and her first husband eventually died there. When she got back to North Carolina and went for her children she found that they had died of starvation and abuse at the hands of the family who she thought would care for them.
Then she met the man in the picture and married him. When her second husband found out what happened to her children he went to the small mill (where the child killers lived) and he murdered them. Then my great great grandparents moved in there and took over.
I don't know if I wrote that coherently but I tried to tell it like my Daddy just told me.
