I hope this entry is coherent.

I'm beat ~ I've been up since 5:30 and I went back up to the creek to get more rocks. This time, my mom and Bobby went with me. It was an ideal situation: they were in one car and I was in my truck. We ended up coming back and going to get something to eat at Mickey D's afterward...with a brief sidetrip to Burger King for some cheddar poppers. I feel as if I've pigged today after a nice actual breakfast of eggs; bacon and biscuits and then eating those poppers and a big mac. Yes, indeed ~ it was a piggo day.

There a spider stranded on top of the printer ~ I think it's a young wolf spider. It's walking around like it can't figure out how it got there...

Today's deprivation went much better than yesterday ~ I guess I just needed to throw a fit. I ended up listening to Jay Leno; David Letterman, Conan O'Brien and Craig Killborn last night after a tantrum.

Still no word of Pup ~ there's a rumor that two of the dogs have returned home, though. Pup and the wolfdog are still out there somewhere.


Anarchism: a political theory holding that all forms of governmental authority to be unnecessary and undesirable and advocating a society based on voluntary cooperation and free association of individuals and groups.

anarchy: a utopian society made up of individuals who have no government and enjoy complete freedom. (One of many definitions in the Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary.)


Huh?

O.k....I just received an odd phone call.

It was an automated survey done by Rasmussen Research out of North Carolina. I honestly don't know what they hope to get out of this survey ~ I knew there was going to be trouble from the very start. The first question was, "How do you feel Tennessee is doing?"

Doing what?

My choices were 1.) Excellent; 2.) Good, 3.) Fair or 4.) Poor...I wanted to choose 5.) I don't know what the heck you're talking about. It went on to ask me about how I consider myself (very liberal and not affliated with any party ~ what else would a bi pagan be since 'anarchist' wasn't a choice on this survey?); how often I go to church or other religious services (out of some spite, I said "I don't know" hehehe) I also had to give my opinions on all the candidates. I said I considered good ol' Al to be somewhat conservative but I wouldn't vote for him while The Shrub was bad, he's bad. I had to give my opinions on Tennessee politicians (either somewhat conservative or 'who the hell is that?')

To beat it all, after some of my answers the automated voice would say, "Okaayyyyy....." as if she couldn't believe what I was saying. It's something when an automated voice tries to make you feel that you've done gone and said the absolute wrong thing.

Yep ~ the more I learn and know...the more I like the definition of anarchism.
