Life Lessons and Other Cerebral Gas

Sharing news, views, life lessons, literature and a good laugh at all of it. I'm what they call a city farmer, around these here parts; kind of an oxymoron.

Tim Burton Nightmares

Nothing like a bad strawberry to put that cows bung-whole look on your face. Things like that keep the tears from my eyes at the seasons end. Not that I need all that juicy goodness going to my butt year round anyways.

My garden has already run it's course. Everything is pretty much the same color this time of year...crispy, heirlooms and weeds alike. As usual they say it's supposed to rain...again, and I doubt it...again. It seems to split off North or South before reaching our corner. It's been hot. I melt like gum on a hot sidewalk, or Ben Stiller in an Indian restaurant. Unfortunately, the second I enter the air conditioning, I plump back up with instantaneous water retention. The only part of me not complaining is my bust-line, the rest is screaming for a huge sale in the Big-Beautiful-Women's department to alleviate the building pressure. Brings to mind the image of Violet, the giant Blueberry, being rolled away by Oompa-loompas. Great, now I'll have Tim Burton nightmares all night. I should know better than to eat fruit before bed anyways.
