ABSTRACTIt's been three weeks since I updated! This is a long time, and a flimsy excuse for an extended analogy about rafting. I am a squirrel who writes bad porn. I met White Shirt's family! White Shirt and I do PRIDE! White Shirt and I are GAY GAY GAY! White Shirt and I break up! Which is really just an excuse to talk about the Dukes of Hazzard ( ( Read more... )

Wow... you know I lived through pretty much all of that and I still had difficulty following it at times...

Impersonating you is fun... too bad I don't reap any benefits of it other than migraines from dealing with frustrating phone reps...

What is it that is making these hard to follow? I don't know anymore. Maybe I need more lithium.

>too bad I don't reap any benefits of it other than migraines from dealing with frustrating phone reps...

No kidding. We're certainly not reaping anything useful, like, I don't know, INTERNET SERVICE.

Well it's the fact that you go on "elocution safari" in the middle of thoughts (i.e. Your trip to Chile)... It's not impossible to follow, just difficult... it reminds me of HS English when we read Thoreau and I came to the realization that if I read the first sentence and the last sentence of each paragraph I could pretty much skip the middle because all it did was reiterate the same thing... except with you there's no such lucky rhyme or reason...the true nugget of information could be anywhere in the paragraph...

That being said since I, you know, live with you and experience a great deal of this first hand, I do mostly read your entries for two reasons 1.) to keep apprised of what is or is not public knowledge and 2.) to see whether I can keep up with your thought expeditions...

Elocution safari. I LOVE that phrase. I am marrying it.

I can't claim credit for it... it's from an episode of West Wing... Donna says the President went on elocution safari in the middle of the word protuberance while attempting to record a radio address.
