    Hi, Luke. I remember playing cars. When your daddy and I were boys, we really liked playing cars.

    Connor is wondering why he has to wait until he's 13 to get a blog, and you've had one practically since birth. Do you think I should reconsider Connor's blog?

    So you like markers? I liked markers too. My brothers liked crayons better, though. Good for you for doing so much stuff by yourself!

    Wow, Luke, you can do a lot of things by yourself. I can do some of them, too.

weird career choice

My brother Adam has settled on a career choice.
It seems questionable to me, but he's pretty excited about it.
I'll let him explain it:
-------------------------------------------------
I've decided on a career choice. I'm going to be a poet.
Now I know what you are thinking. You are thinking, "That's a pretty dumb choice for a career." And if I thought "Why do you think that?" (assuming co-mental telepathy at work here), you'd think, "Because, aren't there like a ton of poets already, and I don't think people pay much for poetry these days." And I'd think, "See, you didn't stop to find out what KIND of poet I'm going to be." And you'd think, "That's true, but does it really matter?" And I'd think, "Well, yeah, cause I'm going to be different. My poems aren't going to rhyme." And you'd think, "And is that better?" And I'd think, "Ever heard of Haiku?" And you'd think, "Isn't that the short Japanese nature poems that don't rhyme that people hate even more than regular poetry?" And I'd think, "Yes, but my haiku's aren't going to be about nature. They'll be about real life stuff like clogged sinks." And you'd think, "Oh! I've always longed for non-rhyming haiku about stuff like that!" And I'd think, "Now you see why it's such a monster good career choice."

Sink draining slowly
I pull the stopper and look
glogged with hair again

Now that's poetry. So real. So short. So artsy.
I call it, "modern art for the ear."

licensing agreement:
If you read this poem, you owe me $10. Send check or money order payable to Adam Reality Haiku Corp. If you read it out loud to someone else (regardless of tone or appreciation), you are potentially liable for copywrite infringement. Send $30 bucks and I won't press charges.

    Were any monekeys hurt in writing this poem?
    by blessings_of_a_mom at 10/13/07 2:11PM
  • timstarr
    He wrote one of my favorite haiku's ever:

    Electronic beeps
    Mean the microwave is done.
    That's one less gerbil.

  • slave_of_jesus_jdb
    You've got something there, Adam. But its not going to be cash flow. Yeah, sorry...

"That was CRAZY!!!" -luke

Ok so I haven't updated in a while so now I am. And I really can't think of what to say so I'll share a picture with you. And after all a picture is worth a thousand words right?
^This is me with some shoes I stacked on a chair...I was very proud of it and asked for a picture to be taken of it.

    Looks like your mom has discovered a new way of storing the family shoes -- it's contained (sort of), it's portable (just move it to the front door before the family has to go somewhere -- so convenient!) and it is overseen by a very handsome shoecheck boy.
