    Oh. Well, dammit, Corbin, why you gotta go around being all white and male? Don't you know better?!! Etsy knows better. Sheesh.
    I know, I know! I just can't help myself!

    I need an intervention.
    Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

      Oh yeah. I'm not supposed to tell anyone they said this...

      P.S. Funny thing is that I bought the box of ivory pieces off Etsy in the first place.

      We live in an odd world.
      You should post the email.... Seriously, so we can send some crazy ones to etsy too, ya know cause were nuts like that...

        Re: What Are You Thinking About?

        I'm with Hawkfeathers, on research and writing. I'm also interested in joining the Save The Mammoth movement. I wonder if there's a local chapter.

        Plus, I'm thinking that writing papers for kids would have been highly lucrative for me, if I could have just minimized my writing style and language use. Ah well. As it is, D's and F's all around are probably better than what I would have put to paper. I don't much recall teachers and writing instructors ever being at all impressed with my "unique" butchering and reassembly of the English language.

        And I totally forgot what I was thinking about when I opened the thread. It might have had something to do with nekkid dancing and bonfires. But it didn't.

          You guys crack me up.

            I was specifically told not to mention the email, so I'm already bad. I have to stay in their good graces, though, because I make money through Etsy.

            BUT here is their prohibited items list:

            What animal products are prohibited?

            Mammoths seem to fall into the endangered species category.

              I'm pretty good at copying signatures and stuff. Of course I never used that talent for anything remotely improper.

                      It's my last day off for about 2 weeks. I think I'm going to take a walk and then laze about the house in my pj's playing the game console or ESO or reading or working on my tattoo.. basically anything that keeps me from thinking about my upcoming challenge.

                      Also, I learned how to cut my own hair yesterday so now I can cut that expense out of the budget.

                          I received a rejection letter regarding my application for a rather large scholarship. I was fairly sure I at least had a shot at it but I guess not. It's too bad since it would've covered the last bit I needed.

                              Well, here's to the start of a beautiful (I mean agonizing) 500km. Or as I like to think of it as "The journey of "shut up, legs"".

                              So I guess I should say my goodbyes. lol
