Toothpick: the sequal

the theory has been advanced that I haven't been the same, due to the fact that a foreign object has been implanted in me. This theory has been corroborated.
if you will remeber, on the tenth of this month, I stepped on a toothpick, this toothpick lodged it's self and a small portion of sock into my heal. I preformed self surgery removing the sock strands and some small part of the toothpick that remained in my foot. I had assumed that I had removed it in totality! in truth the foreign object remained, a large splinter that was discovered and worked free by a voyage of 90 blocks. The cold and the movement encouraged the large chunk of wood to migrate downward.
the next night, (the night of the eclipse, and ten full days after implant) the chunk was manipulated by hand, and quickly though painfully ejected, sheathed in a fluid that had cordoned it off from the rest of my body.
the alignment with the solstice and the eclipse can not be ignored.
to celebrate we burned a wicker man as sacrifice to the god of wood.

D&D

Just my D&D character. he is a frog. his name is Zephyr. he steals things.

Toothpick

Today I stepped on a toothpick that I carelessly/drunkenly discarded on my living room floor the night before.

It pierced my foot, it split in two across the center and was too long to lodge it’s self into my leathery heel;

it did however have an interesting effect on the fibers of my sock.

When I removed my sock to check the damage, long fibers stuck out reminding me of wispy doll’s hair.

 I was forced to indulge in self-surgery to remove this fibrous implant in totality.

I set the toothpick up on my table so that it could cause more trouble latter

Hey, I've been working on this podcast more, and while I can do it on my own, I was wondering if people wanted to help and raise the quality up a touch. I already mentioned wanting chip-tune music intros, but I might want a little subtle musical Q for when I change settings. Also I would like either someone to go out make me some sound effects, or find them for me, and I could also use a weekly editor. I'm getting my compadre Ross to do it this week, but I probably can't force anyone to edit the bullshit text storm I'll be writing every week. 
I've written the ruff ruff draft of episode two, and plan on doing #3 soon enuff, but I don't think I'm going to start recording until next week, or the week after.
ALSO! what does everybody think about switching to a tape recorder for the show. I'm just not sure how I feel about that recording fuzz that disappears when I'm not talking, kinda distracting.


okay, now, don't everybody respond at once!

heck, just read the poster... Over and out... The Benchy.

Mega Fauna

I've been contemplating making a podcast lately. something simple and easy, I could write a few pages of a serialized fiction each week and post it up. I think generally it would be a little longer than this, I think I would shoot for 11 min. I have been listening to plenty of them, so it only seems fair that I would "pass it forward". I'm hoping I can wrangle someone into making a chiptune intro, or even just thieving one from Tom. I really just want an excuse to write dumb unfocused fiction, put a little spit shine on it and call it done, having some small amount of progress regularly staring me in the face. it sounds nice. and it was fun to record this anyway... MEGAFAUNA


I basically just did this to see if I could. I CAN! if I continue it will be a little less one take.

Highlights

the current highlights for the winter are as follows:

• Visiting Anton, I excitedly revealed that I was wearing a 'sock' I had fashioned out of the leg of a pair of panty hoes. he seemed unimpressed and gave me a pair of 'real' socks. I appreciated the gift, so I didn't force him to back peddle and recognize my ingenuity.

•  Walking through the sky walk near the Radison I came across a long line of boys and girls playing stringed instruments beautifully, and walking who knows where. I almost followed them, but I think I was late for work already.

• Two drunken dinner parties that began and ended in the exact same way.

• I was electrocuted on Ragstock's neon sign, I was at the top of the ladder and managed not to fall off, and not to curse. FRICK! 

• Feeling low I walked and walked, I ended up at "Bentlyville, festival of lights!" and walked around for a while. who would have thought that christmas lights could be so soul soothing? I had never intended on going there, so... I'm glad for the accident.

• Latter that same night, I went and watched a movie. I was alone and the entire theater was empty, so I threw my legs over the seat and laffed as hard as I wanted, and sometimes even yelled shit out at the characters.

Archimedes

I got a new house plant. I named him Archimedes...

he's so complex. such a scientist. 

Dusty, he needs a new home

his ego abounds over the confines

and I put a lobster in his branches.

Science doesn't impress me.

but Archimedes does.
