Moving on in life, with one Reservation

About Me

I recently woke up from a long mysterious dream. The rest of the world seemed the same, but I am changed, forever. I like protecting the environment, and cleaning it up. I like long movies without violence. I like cats, but I have too many of them. I like liberals, and their ideas. I like everything with cheeze. I like foxes to come to my back door, and racoons that don't. I like sleeping in a tipi on Sundance grounds when the moon is full and the wind is gentle and cool. I like coffee while watching Northern Exposure. I like reading in bed and at the beach. I like coming home, and finding a baby elk under my deck. I like Frontline. I like trying to understand the universe. I like being from Delaware. I like poetry and sweet tea. I like shooting stars that fall across the sky while I'm dreaming. I like waking up to the songs of the Lakota. I like watercolors, painted by my mother. I like swimming in the ocean and seeing dolphins. I like the memories of my childhood. I like snow on Friday nights in the winter, and rain on Sunday mornings in the summer. I like Dorothy Parker quotes and every song ever written by Neil Young.

Mankind is Noodlekind.

Listening to All Things Considered today in my usual manner; an ear to the radio, an eye on the road, my mind in lots of places.  So I thought I heard the storyteller tell me that ...
