Random Things & Holidays

I've actually got a couple of rants I want to blather on about ("What's the obsession with the Christ in Christmas argument, folks?" & "Do you understand how stupid the Born Gay or Choose Gay question is?") but I'm not in the mood. Consider them upcoming.

Aaaaaanyway, home again, thank you, thank you! I'm such a hermit, really, I just prefer being in my own home. Love the family and all, but I am soooooo glad to be home. It's hard to even explain. Imagine the best orgasm ever, but imagine that it caused beer and money to rain from the sky, and you approach the joy I feel when I come home from visits "down y'onder."

Speaking of the great rural beyond, I have officially decided I like civilization. Call me a pussy if you like, but the combination of spotty, unpredictable cellphone reception, swarms of poorly educated rednecks, and a town that shuts down at 9pm (and, really, what kind of place doesn't accept plastic, people?! Are we in fucking Zimbabwe?!), is irritating. That's not to say I can't live without my modern conveniences (I have before, I probably will again, and I can do very well), but I really, really like them, and I wants them, I does.

Okay, rambling over. Merry Holidays folks - Happy Christmas, Joyous Hanukkah, Bitchin' Kwanzaa, Have-A-Nice-Day Atheists, and so on. Enjoy your family (or their absence, your choice), smile a little bit, and don't get caught.
