Random Phrase Timed Writing

The pathetic fluid waves against any marginal consequence and then next thing you know all hell breaks loose. People should have some control over themselves. A mess like that is hard to clean up and it leaves a bad smell on your hands to boot. It should be a law that people clean up after themselves or at the very least pay some restitution to the person who does do the clean up. There was this time when I had to mop up after a complete stranger and I got this disgusting slime in a cut I had on my finger. My digit burned for days afterwards and it ballooned up to the size of a Vienna sausage and didn’t return to normal until I popped it and all of the yellow puss oozed out.

I would select other random friends, ugh!
Thanks for visiting my post on the ice storm. If you plan to retire anywhere in a log cabin I would suggest an efficient wood stove, kerosene lamps for emergencies, and a lake or pond nearby for water if necessary ,(you could even treat the lake water for drinking if you have to.)
Do you write poetry as well?

Goatman: Yeah, that was pretty yucky.

The mlog cabin belongs to my parents. My father was born in Northern PA. We'd like to get about 100 acres up there with somesort of body of water. Luckily I was raised without running water and electricity as a young child so I'm hardy and my hubby is a man's man so he knows how to tote and hall. But we will definitely keep your experience in mind.

I rarely write poetry. I'll do an haiku or other structured poem every once in a while like a game. I like rhyming poetry and especially like limerricks. If you are into poetry you should look for Katie and/or Pauline listed under Nectar on my main site. They both write beautiful poetry and usually have great pictures to go with it.
