Thought for the Day II

I am merely the instrument, not the writer.



A new story has begun...

Thought for the Day

Synaptic Pruning

I love the phrase "synaptic pruning", it's so dynamic... I think I may use it as the title of my next story.
For those of you unfamiliar with psychology or the brain, synaptic pruning is when irrelevant and unused connections in the brain fade away. I drew a picture of a robotic brain today. It has three skinny little robot legs and buggy eyes. I'll post it when I get a chance to scan it.
I was going through the photos on my camera today and I found this interesting picture:

"Soldier Among the Wreckage"
It was taken in the 4-H building at this year's state fair. They had a Lego table set up.

"Teach her... impeach her... beseech her... reach her... what a creature... it's time... let's rhyme." - Sybil, Flora Rheta Schreiber

Yay! Drawings!

I finally got a chance to use the scanner last night, so I scanned some of my most recent drawings. Here they are!

Yesterday

Yesterday
I conquered my fear of bees
(with a surprising amount of ease).
I was waiting for my class,
sitting in the hallway on my ass.
Reading yet another book,
when downward I did look.
I found on my green jacket,
to my surprise, a yellow jacket!
To stay calm, I tried my best,
as my heart stopped dead in my chest.
I took my book and swatted it away,
(what did you think I would say?)
It began to crawl across the floor,
now I aimed to even out the score.
Beneath my book it was flattened,
before it even knew what happened.
This was not a fatal blow which
only caused it to flail and twitch.
To be sure, I hit it again
I wanted it dead (amen)
Sure enough, it gave it final throes
after my two deathblows.
I emerged victorious,
it was glorious.
I'd conquered my fear of bees.




This happened yesterday, but I figured telling it poetically would be more fun.
