I'm losing my mind. I completely forgot to pay the electric bill last month, so now I have two bills to pay, and therefore less money than I thought we had. On the plus side, the bills seem to be smaller than they used to be. Somewhat

You know, whenever my mother gets sick of our economy, she tries to talk us all into going to live on a kibbutz.

Never mind that Daddy's nominally Muslim, I'm Pagan, and she's a German lapsed Catholic. ;-)

You could try finding an intentional community -- essentially the same as a kibbutz, except in America, non-religious (though there's an awful lot of pagans drawn to them), and often slightly less agriculturally-focused (because they're in cities or towns without enough space to grow all of their food.)

My best friend lives on one. He says he can live comfortably on about $10k a year.

I totally want to live in one about 5 years from now, but I want some time in non-group housing first :-P.

...have I mentioned my mother likes the idea of a kibbutz because it is not in this country? ;-)

five'll get you ten that Canada has intentional communities too ;-)

Hehe, totally random, but I thought of another graphic novel for you. ;) I think you'd really like it...

The Watchmen

They've just finished a movie based on this book, it'll be out in March I believe...it's going to be amazing I've heard!

If you check it out, let me know what you think. I'd be curious to hear your insights...

What are you trying to do, bankrupt me with all these recommendations? 8-P

The movie has caught my attention, actually. I'll definitely check it out.
