Good God, Cheer up! What's with all this melancholy introspection tonight?
People posting about wasted lives, being afterthoughts, wishing they were somewhere else. Life is beautiful! What's with everyone tonight?

5. Oh, in that case, you could have watched
"War of the Worlds" with me last night. Worst. Movie. Evah. But to its credit, it had plenty of huge trees getting snapped like matchsticks and crushing of cars.

11. No. Good point. But
this is a replica of the lunch box I carried in elementary school...


Sorry about the car. Funny thing. My parents have about a dozen cars (most don't run), and Katrina knocked down over a dozen trees in their yard, and not one fell on their cars. So you're cursed. You have permission to be melancholy and introspective. Sorry I doubted. :-)

16. my car is in the lower right
untouched and alive. I took it to the junkyard a few months later after trying to give it away. I did have to spend my memorial day with no electricity sawing and hauling branches in my yard before I finally went to where I work, which had power and a shower. Fortunately the county and city hauled away all of the debris at taxpayer expense. "All" I had to do was haul six or seven huge piles up a hill to the curb.
