Look at the number of people who can`t get clean water to drink! Only that made me very grateful for everything that i have.

I know the term, but it could be between a novelette and novel at the moment.

Honeythorn- Ben Christo was trying to get Maisey into his bed when we met him.
This seems to happen to many people who meet Maisey.
I spent the evening out with local associate J D, in local pub. Music not great, but met associate of J D, and much conversation was had. When the place closed, we lingered outside and talked about infinity, the expansion of the universe, and human perceptions of light. In the pub, we'd covered socialism, the recession in the UK, failures of the education system, particularly for the gifted but dyslexic, depression, general mental health, opiates, drug laws, physical disability, seratonin, Monty Python, Bill Hicks, Jello Biafra, and so on.
It was pleasant, standing at the bar with these two chaps and being able to just ramble without having to explain what the long words meant. I have to explain the long words at work.
It is my 21st birthday in (by my clock) just under 13 minutes.

Happy Birthday, Delkaetre.
--
One of my cousins has pretty much permanently fucked his brain up by years of heavy meth use. i think he's now hallucinating. He came over the other day and was telling me about this "thing" that is following him. All he sees is a shadow or something. He then proceeds to tell me all sorts of strange things happening last few weeks. i was barely listening. i was focused on Guitar Hero III.
He asked what i thought was going on. i simply told him he was just fucking crazy. Too much drugs.
He's an annoying fucker.
He called me earlier wanting to know some "wicked shit" to look up on the internet. He goes on asking some other dumb fucking questions along that line.
So i tell him to look up the Shadow People on Wikipedia. He's a weak minded little pus so i'm hoping he's now cowering in the corner with every light on in the house.
i refuse to answser anymore of his calls tonight.

Can't say I had the urge personally but fair enough! 
Happy Birthday!

I got a lovely new silver pocketwatch (glass on both sides so you can see all the inner workings), a pvc basque from my sister, and a doll of myself. There's something odd about unwrapping a small parcel to find it has your eyes, your hair, your skin colour and your taste in clothing.
Also a box of chocolates, a bottle of 1975 vintage port, and a cake.

Well they're a bit messy when they first emerge it's true, but once they're clean they're adorable! But keep her in until they're weaned and then get her spayed. There are too many unwanted kittens out there already!

No they aren`t adorable, They`re really noisy!
We`re giving them to people because currently there are more cats than people in this house :S

I just read a passage of Jung's work that really fell into place in terms of some of the stupid shit I do.
While reading, I took a nice, solid, healthy dump.
Life is good.

I have a baby seal flipper and half a penguin sitting on my front balcony in a bucket of dirt. It just occured to me how awful that might sound to people who don't understand my interests...

*looks puzzled* Why do you have such objects on your balcony?

Picked them up off the beach last week, along with parts of about a dozen other penguins and seabirds. They've still got a lot of fleshy bits, so I'm letting them decompose a bit in a small 'grave' so their bones are easier to clean. The balcony is the only place I can hide them away from the cats, who'd absolutely love to dig them up and chew on them =/
