Howdy ya'll

Long time lurker, long time poster here

I hope the war on terra ain't got you down

talk show junkies and the leading clowns

may make you frown and turned around

Awww fuckity fuck fuck. Need to vent.

I was having a Kerouac moment, and I was writing my whole book in one stroke. Whatever made me never think to not press "CTRL + S" is beyond me.

I find myself with the crushing weight of trying to find a home for the person I am on the internet in my rather clouded personality field some call my brain. Certain things seem so obvious, and yet mere contemplation is painful.

What's up friends?

A quick and dirty rundown of life for me:

Broke up with Sarah. The whole living closer to the earth thing just stressed her and her future babies out way to much to take it seriously. I would have been sad or upset had this happened to me a few years ago, but I'm mostly sad that she quit in order to continue to work hard and reap the benefits of being very close to the top of the pyramid. ANd perhaps, she'll become a queen bee, someday...

I don't think there is anything that I could blog about that most of you don't already know about.

That is, using my blog as an early warning doesn't seem to make sense considering just how loud the sirens have been sounding lately. I don't think it even makes sense for me to take a side between optimists and pessimists.

Friends we are but mad characters, bad impersonations of our true selves.

Our screen names are like jesters trying to bring about the ideas of our actual person in the least offensive way possible.

All-gods, many gods, one god, no god

animals, prey, herds, protein factories

space, property, leases

eating to the season, food storage and preparation, grocery shopping

Finally!

I didn't with the cold snap we'd ever find anything. Well, thanks to a few days of warm soil tempuratures, the first land fish have come ashore. Good eating tomorrow morning, with eggs from the farm, morels, and ramps (wild leeks) altogether in an omlette.

I've been pretty busy  lately.

I have been visiting some of my favorite places to collect crystals and fossils and indian artifacts. It's been nice camping near the streambeds, watching the trees spring back to life.

I'm excited to start from the first day the first yummy greens pop up on the forest floor. I'm looking forward to returning to a much more natural, seasonal diet. Foraging puts my restlessness to work. I anticipate writing a few short stories and begin work on a photo how-to manual of whatever it is that the land presents to me. I'm still really open to suggestions even thought I have a few items I want to document:
