It's a cut on my right pointy finger.

So some of you that know me pretty well knows that I get started on projects but never really finish. Or if I do, it's way later down the road. Well a new step in the forward direction has just went into my bag. I started a job, on my own, and finished it, on my own. Now someone give me a cookie. No really. I want one. I have had no sugar intake in a long while. Well except for the occasional soda.

The majority of the more active group here at Blue Heron all crammed into a little. We were going on an outing. We first went to P.J.s to raid his fridge for grape soda and ice cream but when we all got there we had soon realized that he was not there. So we all headed into town to fill these long awaited needs of sweet sugary intake.

It's like we've been locked up in a looney hospital and all the doctors said, "Well they have been very well behaved so Yes. They should go out for sugary goodness.". And so we were off. Let loose into the "wild". It was absolutely fun.

There are some things about a life in the "norm" that I do miss. Toilets for one. It's mainly the privacy. I literally pee and poop on a composting toilet in the middle of the woods. For everyone to see. Cold food and ice. I haven't seen ice here. Some houses have it but I personally have not run into it. People have freezers but no ice cubes for water. Oh. And thats all I have drank. Water. I love it but sometimes I yearn for a little more spice in my liquid intake. I've found myself drinking out of the pond to fill this need.

Not only have I been hired on as the farm mechanic slash jack of all trades, I also have an interview at Performance Bikes in Chapel Hill. I don't really need the money cause in exchange for the work I do at the farm I get fed and they give me shelter. I really need the money for saving for my own endeavors and do pay for the Friday night dancing that I have so found myself into and for paying off some personal debts.

I hope to someday return home and start a farm with a very good friend and to continue this life style but I do believe I'm gonna stay here and learn as much as possible but all with out burning my dream.
