V. Interesting view. Nobody around to witness… What was in the bins? :-) Did you rummage through them? (I would have.)
Oh, wait there’s a pull-down fire alarm… Where’d everyone go?

J. Ones a recycling bin for paper and I think the other one was a trash can. There wasn’t much of anything in them. I just happened to go through there on a Saturday afternoon when no one was around. I really like the older buildings.

V. Yes, looks like a nice building. With nobody around, I probably would have peeked in the bins just to be sure they weren’t hiding any gremlins or anything.

J. I think the gremlins were playing around in the lecture all room with the swinging seats. After all they are about the size of a normal cat and they love to swing more then anything else. So when no one else is around they enjoy swinging on the seats in the lecture halls and most especially from the doors in the bathrooms.

V. Good time to be carrying your camera!!

J. Sploosh and there goes another one! Watch out here comes the next shower. And on another note today’s weather will be mostly sunny with a chance of randomly local showers, the ones that tend to fall in a two block radius inside. So remember folks don’t let that umbrella out of your sight.

V. Twilight Zone! Coincidentally, it’s been raining here in Santa Banana since the moment you posted this reply!

J. Hahaha, supposed to storm tomorrow night. It’ll be great. I got soaked in the last storm and it was brilliant. :)
Speaking of Twilight. On another note, I find it really quite amusing how many times I’ve seen the word ‘Twilight’ being used in naming things or in relation to things since the rise of the books. Yeah for advertising. ‘Midnight Twilight’, the prefect new tanning lotion. ‘Black Twilight’, the new perfect scent from Bath and Body works, get your own now! Hahah, there were more but I don’t remember them.

V. Hmmm, yes, that’s what happens when something gets popular: everyone jumps on the band wagon trying to ride the wave of coolness… Cool Twilight hemorrhoid cream anyone?

J. Now, that would be fantastic.

Image Note: So, I couldn’t resist. I found this on my campus walk and well… It really rather does look like an Alien Egg, sitting on a stump just waiting to be hatched.

V. Wow! What a wonderful surprise it will be when it hatches! (Or maybe we don’t want to be hanging around?)

J. *sits on the ground in front of it and starts changing* Hatch, Hatch, Hatch, Hatch, Hatch, Hatch…

V. Yes, chant hard… But don’t sit too close!

J. I think I shall beat my hands on my knees and make faces at it.

V. Oh! In my crystal ball, I see… an indie film. The Dangerous Pastimes of Weavers… Make sure it doesn’t have a mother lurking in the trees.

J. With numerous musical numbers and really bad subtitles as of course the whole thing is in French.

V. Ah, lovely. Sounds like my kind of film, sort of…

J. It has potential but will it be realized or not? That remains to be seen.

V. Maybe someday a movie poster might be made, though…

J. What comes to mind is old school cover art for books or pulp fiction magazines. ^^:

Creak Monster Munch

V. Nice… It looks very soft and inviting. Maybe go for a swim…

J. It’s warmer in here, come and jump in you know that you want to. That’s the water monster whispering to you, telling you that you really do want to go for a swim. And he wants a snack.

V. Probably wants to nibble my toes…!

J. AH but the problem with a nibble, is that creak water monsters are deceptive. The creak might not be very deep but they are really very big and long because they smoosh down and spread out. So that in the end a nibble for water monster is actually very large bite for you and me.

V. You mean big like no more toes? or off at the knees?

J. Rather somewhere in the middle I think. Rather like off at the ankle but you might not realize it right away because he has very sharp teeth. So, you’d probably be trying to walk away and fall over flat on your face because you don’t have foot that you thought was there, only it wasn’t really there… And then maybe all of you would fall through the ice if you fall hard enough and that’s when he gets those nice big meals that keep him fed throughout the year.

V. OK, I’ll keep the tootsies out of the water!

J. Just dabble them in the edge while you lean over and put the boot in the deeper water. Then you can get your feet wet and not get your toes munched off—though I can’t guarantee your creak monster won’t have bigger teeth and take off your whole arm—and it will be all good. Save for the walking back to the car or trail head without two boots, which could prove problematic depending on what type of trail it is.

V. Yes, I can see myself limping back down the trail with one boot and one arm…

Image Note: Recycling bin at school for drink cans and bottles. Among other things… apparently.

V. Ha hah… What!? Hey, dudes, who’s drinking the hydrogen peroxide!

J. Hahaha, that’s what I wanted to know. Along with all the alcohol on campus? Though that probably came from an opening event at the gallery down stairs, it still amused me.

V. Mmm, yes. The new martini? 2 oz gin, 1 oz vermouth and a splash of hydrogen peroxide?

J. It’s quiet nice, I had one the other night. It has a wonderfully fizzy after taste that kind of lingers in your mouth like rabies. I was quiet sure that Mr. I.P. Freely over there was going to kill over the first time his date started foaming at the mouth, it was really quiet impressive.

V. Wow! “lingers in your mouth like rabies” OK, whew. I had to cover my mouth to keep from spewing tea all over the monitor…

J. *evil grins* I must admit I was rather proud of myself when that line came out. It just worked wonderfully. Just don’t ruin your monitor that would be rather sad.

V. Yup, it was a great moment. Almost makes me wish I had been too slow with the hand-mouth coordination so I could have taken a picture of the spewage to post.

J. That would rather be funny in a sad kind of why, I must admit I was drinking coffee when I read that… tough, luckily I didn’t get so bad.

V. Yes!
