Meds instead of Mimosas




The rains and storms most evenings and hot muggy mornings mixed with the lack of sleep and new pollen and allergens have made for a nasty lung infection for me. So on this auspicious day of thanks giving I was unable to indulge in my ritualistic mimosa, but instead visited the local hunchback doctor who did a bit of a feel up and prescribed some burn-a-hole in your stomach antibiotics, nasal spray, and cough syrup. I have fallen back into my introspective and reclusive routine-with which I am very comfortable for now. Because of this I have a few wildlife pics-lots of babies turning up- but not a lot of people pics for now. There is one of a 7 footish rock python we ran into-pretty exciting. Will try to take some of the mini vegan extravaganza dinner that I have planned this evening. Loads of things are happening in the states and I really wish that I could communicate a little better with everyone to lend my support and catty comments. No worries, will try to get hold of whomever I can this week if possible.

Henley-knew someone would notice my absence last week-glad it was you. Miss your cattiness now more than ever! Have not used said gift yet, but will, no worries. Hope you are holding up well with everything going on in Flag!
B-Man-don’t have the words. Not that can be posted here anyways. I will say that I love you man, you know that, and I will try to call you very soon!
Bro-sounds like shit is going down that is very unfortunate for you. Don’t worry, I miss you guys too much to not come back (probably) and I will continue to call your ass at 6 am cuz it is the best time for me until you fucking wake your lazy ass up to talk to your supportive sister who is residing in bum fuck nowhere Africa.
J-sick is the word to express my excitement….
YiYa-miss you, thanks for calling-it really made my night. Look forward to hearing from you always
Thunder-lookin forward to your next installment-ever thought of starting your own bushtales from ASU?
Tuffy McFuckilby-yeah, tell me about it

Don't worry about traditional mimosas, I totally made up for your absence. Had a dream that you should change your blogging name to "Tales from the Bush, of Africa, you sick fuck." Don't ask cause I don't know. Missing you and will try to call sometime today. Hope the pagan, I mean vegan, festivities go well and are appreciated. I'm really craving some of your rhubarb pie and have a feeling that I will not get that fix this year. As far as telling my folks about soon travels, I think I am just going to pin a red 'A' to my chest and hope that will solves the woes of crazy fam life. "Adultry?? No not quite." Anyways, I plan on juicing up the calling card today so I will give you a ring. Miss ya- Lil J

hi friend. this thanksgiving was an interesting one, what with it being my first not eating meat. my mom was awesome and made her stuffing vegetarian. my dad sucked so i mostly drank mimosas at his thanksgiving- which he lied to me about and it ended up being at a restaurant. however, drinking and watching my family has led me to believe they are all crazy in a more disturbing way than i had previously believed. joe called me last week and has now re-entered my life after a 6 month absence. he seems to sense when i'm having troubles in a relationship and is able to call just to fuck with my head. oh, shannon, there is so much more to tell you than is appropriate for a freakin' blog site. i hope you are feeling better and that your vegan extravaganza went well. i really want some of those cocoa cinnamon cupcukes you make. when the hell are you coming back???

so i've been totally creeping out my sister with all sorts of inappropriate sexual questions these past couple days though i know she can't possibly answer them, cause let's face it, she ain't having any. what i'm saying is that i completly hate that you aren't just a couple states away anymore and that i can't call you and ask you why it is that my new semi-sorta-boyfriend simply will not let me go down on him or if it's weird that he only occasionally shaves his upper arms and has not committed to just being a fucking arm-shaver! obviously, this is not a satisfactory forum for which to pose these obscene questions that only my best friend can answer so what i'm asking is are there phones in africa? can you get to one so i can call you?! let me know...

Yes, Shannon...yes I have recently pondered the creation of a Thunder "Bushtales" Series from ASU, but I lack the time to dedicate to something so dedicating. I am amused by the fact that so many people are entertained by my life because it gives me the courage to continue being a jackass. I'm really excited for Winter Frickin Break. It's been really frickin cold the past two or three days... seriously, like 45 degrees... 45!!...that's right, forty-five.....45 degrees Fahrenheit. I hope you have yourself some kind of X-Mas celebration...because Jesus loves you, and you should show your love for him by getting drunketh off thy asseth. I hope you're feeling better after reading this.. or that it hasn't exacerbated your delicate state. Those pictures are most enjoyable. I like the rock python...and is that mammal a dik-dik? I can't wait to mention that animal at a night camp, and I will, too, except that I've requested off from the zoo so I haven't worked for almost a month now. That just about does it. Noodles says hi...again...and is somewhat depressed that you haven't said hi back.

there had better be a blog update right quick! what's going on over there? i got your postcard, which i loved! if only rhinos did hunt hunters...sigh. my final is tomorrow and i've done a splendid job of procrastinating any form of studying. by this time tomorrow i plan on being drunk and not caring about the outcome. peter and i are doing ok. i miss him. and as i told jamina a very exciting count down has begun, though not quite as awesome as her count down to africa. i will try to remember to buy a phone card when i get money and finals are over. hope all is well.
