Search and Recovery

Check Check...Check 1- 2- 3- tap tap tap...Is this thing on?
Well, hello it has been a long time. I am washed anew, clean from my old self. Since our last one-side (mostly) conversation, I have seen some really great sites, drank some really great beer, and eaten smoked almonds on the Athabasca Glacier. I am talking of course about Canada, oh Canada. To compound my total loss of self in my travels, it happened to be a full moon while I was up there. Some Indian dude on Granville Island, with a smudge bowl of sage and a feather remarked while he smudged me that I had gotten hit "bigtime" by the full moon. I knew what he meant, but I did not know the what extent.

I'm sorry, I do not have a picture to show you from my trip, that costs extra, I think it will cost me a total of $600 when all is added up. You see things sunk in from the great north when I got home to NYC. Upon my arrival, I found a giant pile of extremely fertile dirt (only 2 bugs Alexis) but very rich soil- lying under my cow's head in the shape of a cone. Strange there were cones of what you though was dirt on the glacier, but it wasn't dirt, it was solid ice with a dirt finish.
So out went the cow's head- I had that thing for 15 years.

Next was the big crash of 2006 for me. My hard drive went down on August 21st. After tears of shock and $600 later, I may have a working computer this evening and my data recovered.

So after sleeping in postcard settings and breathing mountain air, NY has continued to temper me to this new moon cycle. I am washed anew and I feel lighter, even though I opted for a 120 gig hard drive, man will that be heavy when it crashes full.

You threw out the cow's head? What the eff is WRONG with you? I was Cassady to your Kerouac when you bought that.

I'm not mad. I'm just...dissapointed.

Dude, it had dirt and bugs in it, and it's falling apart-decaying after all these years. Picture Charity right now saying this: "it wanted to go back to the earth."
