! Warning! The following is long and pointless and may contain inaccurate information, descriptions of bodily harm (by some body parts against other body parts) and a brief mention of a really big spider that may have taken my cookie.
Hey Faery_Light...
Sorry to hear that your body is giving you a hard time.
Bodies can be annoying at times... Don't get me wrong, they are great to have...
Without one you are going to have a real hard time moving stuff around, throwing pies, making coffee or trying to open doors.
Being disembodied is really overrated.
But as annoying as one's body can be they are pretty necessary even if they are painful.
I know I sound a bit like I'm advocating for having bodies, and it's not like you said you were gonna get rid of yours or anything like that...
It's just that I feel bad that your body is being a jerk, yet I don't want you to be mad at it.
My brain is always being a jerk and most of my body parts hate each other...
I haven't talked to my spleen in three years and my pointer finger and my left eye had a fight about a poking incident last year and they are still going at it... It's a little one sided, poking-wise, but you see how these things can get out of hand.
I guess as we age, our bodies and the various parts that haven't fallen off yet can get very cranky.
It's really hard keeping the whole show in order.
I wish you well with that...
Ow...
Damn it...
Stupid finger just poked me in the eye again and then I guess my teeth got in on it and tried to bite my finger... But they ended up biting my hand which tried to retaliate...
That was a rough couple of seconds there... Almost turn into a riot.
Now I dropped my cookie too...
I was eating a cookie I found under the sofa before...
I didn't mention it because I didn't want you to feel left out or cookieless...
Also it wasn't relevant to what I was saying.
Not that anything like that has ever stopped me from saying stuff that wasn't relevant or coherent.
For instance... Did you know that on this day in 1561 William of Orange was appointed viceroy of Burgundy and Charolais?
More importantly do you care?
Maybe if you were Dutch you might be sub-mildly interested, but see... It was totally pointless.
Actually, earlier today I found another coconut shell with a historic date reminder on it which had that scrawled on it...
Apparently at some point in the past I started leaving these coconut shells for me to find in the future, in case...
Ah, never mind...
The point was, just like the cookie it wasn't relevant.
I really want that cookie though...
It rolled under my computer desk where some really big spiders live.
I'm not afraid of spiders, but I'm pretty sure the big gray one has been taking my shoes...
So far six have disappeared... And I really don't know what's gonna happen if he gets two more.
Anyway...
This is getting too long and you are not feeling well, so I should probably stop writing before I make you feel worse.
Oh, I almost forgot...
No... I succeeded... I forgot...
No... Wait...
Congratulations on purchasing that 1972 Dodge Charger?
No... That doesn't seem right...
Did you adopt 72 ducks or chipmunks?
That doesn't seem right either...
72... ?
Oh... Right...
Your said in a few days or weeks, you are going to be 72...!
It think.
I'm going with that.
In advance, I wish you a very happy, pain free (free of pain, not that you don't have to pay for it), joyful, healthy birthday!
Get well, be well and whatever you do, don't fall down a well.
Bye!
