on the wings of
I was smoking on the back porch a minute ago and the sounds were beautiful and familiar. The sounds of a distant train, a crowing rooster, and a chirping bird made me reflect on the loss of them when I'm in buffalo. The train is the sound I miss the most, that's funny because it's the only unnatural sound that I've listed. the train sound is inescapable here in Georgia.
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 understand the importance of the who room thing the most when I'm here in GA where I don't have a room of my own. Yesterday when I was ready to sleep there were 6 adults and 3 kids over here who decided to have a pizza party right when I should have been sleeping.
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.
READY OR NOT HERE I COME!

The Last Picture Show
What a nice movie. AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I'm ready for Buffalo, Damn it! Bring on the cold. It's 26 right now and that's colder than Buffalo. I'm so BORED. AH misery! Well, I'll be bored back in Buffalo. What can I do to make this a good day? I'm going to get some mini DV tapes for starters.
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.

One Time at Band Camp
I was at soundlab a while back and some woman asked me where i get my hair cut so I gave her a card for the place. Then she gave me one of her cards. I just now got around to looking at the web site. I can't really figure out what it is, a marketing spy company?
