I have finally repented and come to realize that the environmentalists are right. Green is the best. I have started reforming my life. It was a little difficult to make the first few moves, but now I'm starting to spend more money.
That weekend, I went down to Albuquerque and got a new organic cello. Of course, I was careful not to litter along the highway and not to disturb the path of the tornado on the way home.
First I painted our new room green:

"That's the extent of my effort in that direction."
I don't know...once you start buying "organic" cellos and keeping your McDonald's bags in the car....
Methinks the "Goremeister" is finally wearing you down! I'm sure it won't be long before you have the whole family protecting the ozone by traveling around town on your dad's new toy. I can just see it now: You all coming to church with Dad on his new wheels pulling the rest of you behind him in a wagon! You'll just have to leave at 5:00am so you won't be late :-)
Speaking of cellos, if you’ve seen my list for Sunday, you know that I have you giving your new “organic” cello a workout. No…we’re not doing Metallica or Kiss—yet. I need Mark on the drums for that!
See 'ya Sunday!
LOL -- I like the tornado part :-)
Man, I want your cello... and your room...
HEY! Let's swap junk! You can have all my "motors and pneumatic cylinders" and I can have your gerbils, room, and cello!
LOL, Ab! Love the ship on your bed. It's awesome.
Your room's green, your cello's green...next thing I know you'll be eating tofu, wearing burlap sacks, and *gasp* bringing your own bags to the grocery store.
Sweet, a boat!
Sorry.
NICE color! Although, I'm a little biased... :-P
(Cool bedspread/pillows galore/lamp too!)
LOL -- let me know when you are doing Metallica or Kiss... I wouldn't miss that for anything. How about throwing some AC/DC in there? I bet Peter could sound JUST like Brian Johnson. :-P
Ok, being quiet now...
Hello, Abbey.
That is a very neat and tidy room, and you did a fine job painting it green, in dedication to the Democrats?;)
That is a lot of pillows.
Russ:)
"I'm sure it won't be long before you have the whole family protecting the ozone by traveling around town on your dad's new toy."
Yeah, the non-existent damage to the ozone layer definitely needs protection.
"I can just see it now: You all coming to church with Dad on his new wheels pulling the rest of you behind him in a wagon!"
Not so sure that we'd be able to get across all the lanes on Sante Fe like that... Hampden might be a little scary too. This will take a little skill and planning. We'll just have to take all the side streets and allies. Next time we get "the rebuke" for being late, we'll just give the excuse that we're protecting God's used-to-be-shalomic creation...we wouldn't want it to get less shalomic than it all ready is!
Looking forward to working out this Sunday. :)
Ben, I don't want all your junk. I'll take the pneumatic cylinders, dremel tool, drill, LEDs, screw drivers, wrenches, heat shrink tubing, alligator wires, green screen, water cooling system (when you finally get it), and any other tools you might have. Oh, and I'll take your light switch. You can have all your computer junk and anything I left off the list. :P
Beth, I'll have to get "Moogly" to start posting all of his song choices on his blog, so you know which days to come. The southern Baptist hymns are always a good choice to skip out on...
Russ, what I didn't show you is our closet where we store all of our worldly possessions. :P Our room looks green until you get close enough to the wall to see all the white specks where it was impossible to get paint in the texture. :-/
"I can have your gerbils"
Heh...I take it you don't enjoy sleeping, Ben.
"You can have all your computer junk"
What!? Don't call computer junk "junk." It's computer stuff. And you should take it, Abs -- it's really fun to throw off of a high roof. :-P
"Our room looks green until you get close enough to the wall to see all the white specks where it was impossible to get paint in the texture. :-/"
Lol...yup...I about had my arms fall off after I painted my room. You basically have to put your full body weight into the roller to get those stupid white specks to disappear.
Think green thoughts, and have an environmentally friendly day!
"Heh...I take it you don't enjoy sleeping, Ben."
LOL-he's just doing his act of kindness for the day. :P Actually, it's kind of scary, but I can't sleep very well if the gerbils aren't making noise. :S
"computer stuff"
I was more referring to his boxes of who-knows-what all jumbled to together in boxes in his closet. :D
"Think green thoughts, and have an environmentally friendly day!"
Gahh...don't remind me of how much time I've wasted...stupid Simms...
"boxes of who-knows-what all jumbled to together in boxes in his closet"
Still...fun to throw off a high roof. :-P
"stupid Simms..."
Yes, I agree, but huh? Lol...I didn't know I was referring to something.
Thanks, Beth :-) It's nice to have my sisters appreciating my "junk" again, even if it's only for the satisfaction of destroying it :-D
LOL -- That "have a nice day" comment sounds like Sim Copter to me...
As far as sleeping, what difference would a few gerbils make? :-D
Huh... Whatever. MDLA.
After seeing the room with my own eyes, I now can comment.
It was as beautiful as a park, but you know.. without all the dogstuff.
It was really great to find out that your model ship is not a model at all, and obviously is piloted by some sort of tiny crew. The reason I say this is because in the picture, it was above your bed, and while I was there, it had sailed to the window.. pretty cool
sorry for being crude.
