Eurotrash. Also, sentence structure.
The ridiculous, the sordid, the eccentric, the sexy and the peculiar, the nutty,the truthful, as well as the make believe, the forest and the ocean and when it rains when the sun is out. Wet moss, the ice flecks in frosty sodas....Falling asleep outdoors bathed in sunrises and sunsets. strawberries and cream, Dousing out all pain with music. Visual Arts, quantum physics,illustration,metaphysics,classic homeopathy, dancing, fur creatures that are still alive,looking after people, music, climbing things I'm not supposed to, playing hide and go seek and never, ever getting found, laughing at inopportune moments and not being able to stop, running over smug country club members with their own golf carts and then blaming errant squirrels.
My maker...to ask for my #^W*&@ing instruction booklet back, already! Bob Ross. That should be self-explanatory. Talking squirrels. Etc.
Snuggly people. Not stinky or nefarious ones...Though the latter are amusing and bound to show up, anyway.
One always finds what they look for in the end. if you look for the shining, snuggly parts in life, you'll come up with them sooner or later, no matter what mites roar their winky little heads up in protest at you while you're at it..
I'd especially like to meet the kind of person that will take two seconds to do this : Click the buttons at the link - it's amazing what you can do - Feed people, save things that grow out of the ground and swing from trees, basically, "save the world one click at a time."
....
my head. against the wall.f()ck. ow!
One of these days I'll get back to being in a band again -as I miss them.

the beauty and wonder of the world.""Love is a fruit in season at all times,
and within the reach of every hand."
