This morning, wanna know what I woke up to?
And I quote….
“crack…crack BOOOOOOOOOM”
And then the flash. Which was cool to see and all, but it would’ve been better on tv.
Because it was like right over the area where I live.
Meaning that it would be *that* easy for these lightnings to come and catch a tree, catch the powerline, the transformers, or the house…..
And then we’d be fucked.
So, that wasn’t fun.
Oh ya, it was last night too.
And the night before.
Funny thing is though, after the crack, crack, BOOM, then there was this instantanoues downpour. It was like good lord, who opened the flood gates!
I hope this isn’t a hint as to what the fall and winter is going to be like.
I really don’t. I hate the idea that this fall and winter will be worse than last year. I’m sorry, we don’t need the power to go out at school like it did last year. We don’t need to be having multiple snow days and all that. We just need to get to school, get the shit done, and be over with it.
We don’t need the river to be all flooded, again. We don’t need part of the school flooding again, like last year. We don’t need the one town closed because the water’s too high.
“I’ve got a lovely bunch of cocunuts, there they are all standing in a row, big ones small ones, tumbling ’bout your head….”
Sorry, I’ve been wanting to say that since yesterday.
It’s in the Lion King. You know, when Zazu is in the little cage of bones and Scar is the king guy, and he’s making Zazu sing? You remember that part?
If you don’t, you better watch that movie again. I mean, who doesn’t remember the Lion King? Okay, better question, who hasn’t seen it?
If you haven’t, you are, well, wrong.
Fix yourself.
I’m supposed to be working tomorrow. With the weather the way it is, though, I don’t know. We shall see. I don’t really want to though, because I’m too lazy to even do some thankyou cards for my birthday stuff. All I gotta do is write a little bit. But they are kinda hidden from view, I forget about them, and on top of it, don’t really want to do them.
I just don’t feel like doing anything.
And since I don’t have to, I won’t.
I started to play the stage I’m on in Zelda: Four Swords this morning.
I had to move this movable house. This house is halfway through the level/stage/whatever. You can’t move it up or it’ll get stuck, then you’re stuck – you have to move it and kill all these weird dwarf things that can be killed no other way to get this thing – and I moved it up on accident without even knowing. So I was stuck. So I said screw it – it took me like almost half an hour to get there, and I didn’t really want to do it all again.
I’ll try again later.
So after that I came up here to my room from the living room to play Sim City. I didn’t get much done, but my city is doing much better now.
Last night, I had to reconcile all the edges and stuff, because the way I had it made wasn’t level with the neighboring places….Which I didn’t really care about when I made it, but I do now because I want to connect them…..Well, anyway, half my shit ended up being killed by that. So, you know, I pretty much went from about 2500 people to about 300. It sucked. But now I’m back up to about 2000, so that’s good. It’s just hard to get enough taxes and shit in with so few people for all the money that it costs. Which hopefully will get better once I get more people there.
I don’t want to raise the taxes too much, because I don’t want to tax the “heart and soul” out of them, as they say in “Robin Hood” (another disney movie, with foxes and stuff, it’s good). But, right now, the people are at about 9.5% taxation, for the middle people, and then the dirty industry is at about 10.5, because they have to be there, I can make money off of them, and I don’t really want them to be there forever. And then, like, the agricultural tax is low, as is the tax % for the lower-earning people. The higher earning people are playing more taxes, but they’re all within a few points of each other.
I don’t really know why I’m telling you this. I’m just sharing.
I like how everything is kind of going slow, though. I mean, everything isn’t all happening at once.
It suck though, because I have this huge mountain in my city, and then another part of it is water, so there’s a lot of ground I can’t use and stuff. I’d like to have stuff on the top of the mountain, cuz there’s almost a plateau up there, but I’m not sure if a road could get there…..I should look into that though.
I’m very impulsive in that game. In every way, other than the taxes.
I’m so weird.
