I used to want some, but half of me realized that if I'm gonna get something, I want it to be definitive of me. Then I thought about that and couldn't come up with something that expresses it well.
Not something I shall speak of. Its not interesting, and best forgotten in the past
NAY! NSA-kun! You shall not have my photos!
Stay awake for 24 hours, drive 4 hours to visit a friend for the day, stay until evening, then drive home, at night, alone, on a highway that has no lighting.
Sleep deprivation plus sensory deprivation is a Hell of a trip, but not when one is driving. Especially not if one has to work the next day (easy job, but still)
Brains are a long term investment, Beauty is a short term profit.
Beauty, as a marketable tool, fades with age in the living, and fashion all else. Brains retain the value of what they produce throughout time.
When I first moved to roughly where I live now (west coast Canada) I was reminded of the bit in the bible about 40 days and nights of rain.
Then Autumn faded into Winter and i thought 40 days? Pfft. Wimps.
Rain doesn't even faze me now. 4 days is nothing. Bring it.
Also it means the nights are colder and the air is cleaner. Good for me. Mud is sometimes a problem at work, but any amount of rain brings mud, so...oh well.
The sun is awful. Someone should build a big paddle to block it out.

I miss winter.
A crappy one. But all population centres are crap in their own way, either by geography, layout, people, or management.
When this was asked? Pretty quiet. Not much happening.
Now. The same with more rain.
sorry it took so long.
