The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Amazingly I'm almost considering a nap. I won't, it's hard enough to fall asleep as it is, but it's tempting. A lovely walk into town for a trip to the post office, the barber, lunch, drugstore, then the courthouse. We were in the area, why not? I should probably look into getting new shoes. I hate buying shoes. Especially if winter is going to be as bad as all the farmers say. I swear if I hear "Big spoons" one more time... I'm sorry, I've just never been one to rely on fruit for my weather predictions.

Shoes are so expensive. I hate that they are a necessity. Ha. Also, I'm never able to fall asleep during the day, or well, have a nap I mean. Napping is impossible.

It's easy to make me blush, but I rarely ever get embarrassed. I do get embarrassed for others, but that's different.



I bought a dress yesterday. It's a very delicate pink with light floral pattern. Maybe not my colour. I almost let it go, but I popped back in to grab it.



I have an interesting bruise.



The way I react to pain is kind of funny.



Everyday I lose the remote. I must be a joy to co-habitate with.



It all just made me laugh though.



30 down... still a long way to go.



It seems I lack cohesion. It seems that way.



-yawn-

It seriously looks like someone has stitched red threads in the back of my throat. I've had inflammation before, but nothing so... concentrated. It feels like something between full on soreness and just a tingle. I'm mildly concerned... but what can I do at this time of night when I don't even know what's causing it? So, I'm just going to deal with it and take a shower. :/

Rage. Quit. So much...

So... today we went to my grandfathers for lunch. At one point all the men were in the living room watching a race (don't know which one, don't care), and all of the women were in the kitchen. And I learned today that groundhog meat is very tough and just as greasy as 'coon meat, even if you roast it for eight or more hours. The best part of that story was that they hadn't killed the groundhog, it had been hit by a bus in front of their house.



When I was little my guardian took me to meet a friend of his and the man was making rattlesnake soup. And I politely as I could declined his offer to try it. I'm told it's pretty tasty no matter how you cook it. I might eat it, if you didn't tell me what it was first.



When I was in tenth grade we learned how to properly skin and prepare squirrels.



I can understand snake and squirrel, but groundhog and raccoon just doesn't look all that appealing when you look at one.



I was a little shit in ninth grade and tried to convince one of my teachers to eat Rocky Mountain Oysters while on a school trip (he wasn't from around here). He asked what it was and I just told him it was nuggets. The waitress came by and spoiled my fun though.



Come to think of it, there are plenty of snakes around here. My guardian cut the heads off copperheads on our back porch more than once. There was also a creek on the property that my cousins and I would play and catch crawdads in. I had seen a copperhead down there once. I was with my five year old cousin, and it was about ten feet from us. My cousin was leaning over the edge of the creek, didn't even notice it. I didn't tell him I saw it, and immediately took him back home.



I've had far more encounters with snakes than I would have liked. Only a handful were poisonous though. It doesn't do you much good living in the sticks and being terrified of the local wildlife. Of course, when they get into your bedroom it's a different story.



Fuck wasps though. We have millions of those, especially red paper and mud daubers. I've been stung by a red paper before. My mother's friend took the tobacco out of a cigarette, wet it down, and put it over the sting. I've never had problems with daubers though, they're hardly aggressive. BUT... I did have one land on the back of my leg the other day, and I did not take that so well. Now, a lot of people around here think they can't sting, that's untrue, they can, it's just very uncommon. They're an extremely common sight around here, I've seen and lived around them my entire life. Though one has never landed on me before.



Hmm... this is the longest entry I've written in ages.



Are my roots showing?
