Everything is greener submarine

Wow, a three-day-weekend I can't remember the last time I had a good one of those. This one was a fairly good time. It was peaceful for the most part. I like it when it's peaceful, when it's one of those chilled out and relaxed sort of environments. I haven't felt like this in quite some time, since most of you (for the most part) already know I spent a little over a year with my sister, and if anyone knows my sister, she has five kids. It was a little rough for me at first, and rough for me at a lot of times. I wasn't used to having two kids around, much less five. There were some good times, and some of them were even in the car, haha. But a lot of it was rough and tiring, mostly my job. That is irrelevant now because living with them taught me some things, and showed me the neurological behavior of JAS (Junior-Anarchaical-Syndrome).

JAS is quite a worrie-some disease, it isn't contagious, it just seems to run down one generation, of DNA, that being a sibling (usually of 3 or more siblings in a family). My family has it. It's on my mother's side. My mother and my aunt have raised kids with JAS. When my aunt's children were quite young they developed signs of JAS. It is unmistakeable. Kids seem to fight over nothing, and they are good at it, it seems as if they are committed to this. Which brings me on to my sister. All of my sister's kids either had or were developing JAS, some at the toddler level. These kids would fight over absolutely nothing (mostly things of no significant value other than to be fought over), and I, your friend and humble narrator, got sucked into this like a wave of violence at first. There were knee-breaking waves and there were tidal waves, none of which I liked.

This Is why I like the bliss and serenity of this weekend. Nothing much happened here, because nothing much does. I got a taste of what I used to do to "escape", I played the set and listened to music. I'm buying a lot of movies now which I like to do. Wal-Mart has that five-fifty bin I love so much. It seems as though I can find more movies than ever in that thing. This weekend I bought Stealing Harvard (Chris, AppleBees' and the movies, "Five right, into Three Left 150...woo-woo tzzz, the enormous blow-off valve screams as you slow for the turn...Then, we went to the movies, you saw it, and I didn't to make a long story short). I tell this story quite often so others might know of this as well. If I haven't told you this it is likely that there are reasons that are disclosed to you. I guess this brings us to our quote of the day. Today I am using two quotes since I missed an update for a couple days. "Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people." Jawaharlal Nehru (1889 - 1964). Nehru is a man who was (correct me if I'm wrong) the Prime Minister of India from August 15, 1947 - May 27, 1964. "They say that blood is thicker than water. Maybe that's why we battle our own with more energy and gusto than we would ever expend on strangers." - David Assael, Northern Exposure, Family Feud, 1993. I think Norther Exposure was some show sometime. Eh, who knows?
