I think we choose peace. In the middle of hell, we can still feel peace, if we choose to do so. And we try really hard. That's all. For now. =)

Today—yesterday, really—has been an interesting day.

I found out that mylastname should not be my last name. I'm pretty sure that it should be Johnson, instead. I think I may have mentioned that I've really gotten into genealogy this summer? Well, it turns out that one of my great-grandmothers really liked the wang. She had kids by AT LEAST four different men! ...And this was between 1900 and about 1918. I probably shouldn't make her out to be such a trollop since I never knew the woman. I'm sure that she had her reasons, though—as most people do.

Here's the story, in case you're interested: Around 1900, she married a guy name Elihu mylastname, and they had a daughter. (My great-grandmother was only 16 at this time.) They were divorced, and Elihu had married another child (who was only 13 and pregnant at the time of marriage) around 1905. My great-grandmother then kept her married name until she married again around 1915. In the meantime, she had (at least) three other children—one of whom happened to be my grandpa. Since her last name was still mylastname, that's the last name my grandpa got. Through family "whispers", I've now learned that my grandpa's father's last name was actually Johnson. I have the "Johnson" (LOL) narrowed down, now, to about five or six lads. Anyway... I think it's rather interesting to think that my last name probably really is (or really should be) Johnson.

Also today—or yesterday—Nick and I decided to be really gay and highlight our hairs. Well, we went to Kroger and bought the shit, and we came back and started. When we were finished with Nick for the first time, he looked like a fucking zebra—no lie! I look like some poor white trash homo with a home-job dye-job. It's mothereffing disgusting!

Our home is now, also, officially a zoo. If you'd like to visit, contact me for admission rates! Last week while we were in Columbus, I bought a fiddler crab for our aquarium. A few days later, while researching correct care for fiddler crabs, I found that they are not supposed to be kept fully immersed...and they're not supposed to be kept in freshwater. So I headed out to the pet store and bought the supplies to set up our 10-gallon tank for our crab. While I was there, I discovered that they also had fiddler crabs—and these were set up in the correct way! ...Except they didn't have brackish water in their tank, which is another tale, but anyway.... I bought three of their female fiddler crabs for my male fiddler crab, but when I arrived at home, I discovered that he'd left for crab heaven. So now the three lezzies are alone in the tank, and they're just dying for some big crab wang. I'll have to make another purchase soon. It'd be neat if they came in all different colors, wouldn't it?

Oh! Back to the zoo-thing: We have the three fiddler crabs, a 55-gallon tank full of various fish, a 5-gallon tank with a goldfish, two hamsters, two cats, and two dogs. It's neatish. I like having them all!

Also! Yay! I finished up my first graduate-level course at the end of last month, and I earned an A! That makes me smile. I'm now taking my second course, and I have only eight more to go after this one until I have my Master's! Then it's off to PhD school. You can call me Doc Johnson!

Later, y'all!

"i've got a mind, and i'll make it.
