28 Days Since My Last Post; I Suck At Blogging.

I've had several ideas for a new post over the past couple of weeks. I could say that I hadn't the time to blog because I have better things to do, but, really, who am I kidding? I don't do anything important.

I did see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, though. That was pretty important.

Here's a couple of the things I thought of posting but then didn't because I'm kind of a failure.

1. Turbines Are Also Creepy.

Much like sunflowers, people are not often scared of turbines, and so they give me a funny look when I confess my fear of them. However, let me assure you my fear is completely rational.

First of all, look at the size of these things. They're bigger than your house; they're bigger than a telephone pole; they're bigger than the average evergreen tree. They're monstrously large. Why? To intimidate you to your very core.

Now, maybe you've never seen a turbine in real life, but if you were to look up a video on YouTube or some such thing, you may be shocked by what you'll find -- they move. Yeah. These huge, horrifying creatures of man move. Their enormous limb-like propellers spin at an eerily slow speed, as if to taunt you with the possibility of someday uprooting from the ground and sauntering over to where you live and crushing you with their girth.

Every time I see one of these terrifying things spinning, staring at me, blinking its little red light, I can't help but imagine it morphing into one of the strange pod-things from the film War of the Worlds and wreaking havoc all over the place.









2. The Weepies.



This song kind of melts my heart and soul. Enjoy.
