Why sleeping isn't always restful for meA few nights ago I had an interesting experience. I was going to blog about it earlier, but I'd been kinda busy Tues-Thurs. Well It's Friday morning and the weather is bad so I won't be flying. I got plenty of time.
I had been up for too long that night and needed to get plenty of sleep. I don't remember what time I went to bed, but I don't think I actually fell asleep until 130. Next thing I know, I'm groggy, its 235 and something is shocking my ear. You know those piezo electric igniters that are used in grills, and also work good for shocking people and igniting potato guns? In my mostly asleep partly awake state, I thought I was being shocked with one of those. Its amazing how weird my logic is when I'm asleep. I think about this time I was able to open my eyes and see the arcing from the spark, but I can't remember. As whatever it was continued, I became more awake and came to the conclusion that it might be a bare electric wire under/in my pillow or that I had a functified muscle in my ear that was jittery. Notice my logic is changing, but not really improving. Although functified muscle don't really give off a spark, I couldn't really tell if there was light coming from the spark source or from one of the other nighttime illumination sources in my room (mostly the tiny led on my speakers or computer or my cell phone. hey I never said I was really with it wat 236). Eventually I decide that I could figure things out better if I got up and turned the room light on so I could see this igniter/bare wire/muscle doing its thang. Well, it turns out as I return to my pillow there IS something that was attacking my ear and I'm not really as crazy as I would think the next morning if I hadn't Mr. Light N. Bug. That right folks, there was a lightning bug trying to fly around under my ear. Don't ask me how he got there, but everything makes sense now. The 'shocking' was really his wings tickling my ear as he fluttered around in that area. The light was his superfly glo tale that causes all the ladies to come running. Unfortunately for him, it didn't have the same effect and I swept him off my pillow and went back to sleep.

the-bush is backback no slack yo!so, this would be my first post since the wheel was invented. ok, just kidding. but seriously. I know nick and todd have been wanting me to post forever. despite what the two previously mentioned may think, Kara really hasn't kept me from posting. She has even encouraged me to post. And you guys can thank her for the inspiration for this post. The reason I haven't posted is cuz i'm tired and lazy. And I like watching malcom in the middle. Anyway, enough excuses, a real post.
It is still 21 days until I officially leave bachelorhood, however, the signs that a woman has great influence in my life are already more than apparent. while I was speaking with my lovely fiancee this evening, I asked if it was ok if I threw away some bows and ribbons from gifts that we got at a wedding shower. A little background on these bows: We both though they were nice to look at and so we didn't initially throw them away. But they have sat on my floor for at least a month collecting dust and getting trampled. They were nice to look at but basically not doing any good and being in the way. Something needed to be done. So I asked if I could throw them away. We now return to your regularly scheduled blogpost. She replied by asking me what we would do if we needed some bows or ribbons in the future. If we threw them away, she continued, we would have to buy new ones. I wondered out loud why we even need to put bows on gifts. I learned that most everyone but me (or is it just all the girls?) puts bows on their gifts. Funny, I don't see why expired sectionals or sunday morning cartoons wouldn't work and just leave it at that. In the end we decided to keep these bows and ribbons by putting them in a box and starting a collection.
Ladies and gentleman I now have a bow box. When I was single, I would just throw away any bows or ribbons I got. But now, I put them in the bow box. Just in case you don't believe my good fortune, I have photographic evidence of the herespoken (is that even a word? dang? katy h? probably not, oh well) bow box.


BTW, more bush posts are on the way. stay tuned and keep your ears on little buddy.
