Deserted Island

So...... I am still having an incredibly busy week and feeling quite sleep deprived. It looks like I will have a few days rest for the holiday weekend and then back into the insanity for another week. That being the case, I have nothing meaningful to say! My brain is too exhausted to produce interesting thoughts at the moment. Sorry about that.

If I have ever doubted the old saying that leisure builds culture, I will doubt no more. Rather than pondering the true nature of the universe in terms of cosmic conciousness, today I was thinking about the things I cannot live without, if stranded on a deserted island. What's odd about that? Afterall, you never do know when you might get stranded on a deserted island. So you should make a list too. :)

Anyway, my survival list..... surprisingly, cheese and peanut butter were ranking pretty high on the list. Not the stinky cheese though-any other kind is fine. I seriously can't live without it-I love it. Almost as much as pizza, but I can't make pizza on a deserted island, can I? Shit, wait a minute...I can't refrigerate cheese either. My life expectancy on the deserted island has just been drastically reduced. Okay, let's assume it's an apartment, with electricity.... on a deserted island (of course). That being the case, I'm happy to announce that cheese is back on the list!

Next.... My laptop computer and cell phone, but I don't know if I can call anyone from a deserted island. Would there be reception? Better to have it in case. I would need sketchbooks for drawing and supplies for painting, my iPod, plenty of clothes and a hammer...coconuts grow on islands. How in the hell do you open one without beating it with a hammer? Sunglasses, a wine cellar, beach towels, shampoo, books to read..... that might be it. All I need to survive on a deserted island. I better add a knife, first aid kit, flashlights and batteries. And that's it for me- I'm going to bed.

Good night -Sweet dreams.
