March 17th, 2001-let’s braid steve’s hair.
~green acres is the place to be. farm livin is the life for me.~
sooooo, i walked casserole today. i went to dusty’s but he wasn’t home, so i proceeded to steve’s. i am mad at dusty, so i am writing him a poem.
A POEM FOR THE LAME-O
i went to your house
but you were not there
so i walked down to steve’s
to his underground lair.
i went to your house
but you were already gone
so i went down to steve’s
and swam in his pond.
we plotted and schemed
in that underground lair
to take over the world
and braid steve’s hair.
but you were not there.
so our plots and our schemes
lay untouched as of now
until you can look over them
and call me a fat cow.
so monday i’ll come again.
and monday i’ll leave.
cause if you’re not there,
i’m goin’ to steve’s.
and we’ll plot and we’ll scheme
and we’ll swim the pond
cause if you’re not there
we’re moving on.
hehe. i’m funny. i wrote it all just now. damn i’m good.
love,
deenie
And what’s a flashback post without some cello dork goodness?
April 18th, 2001-Strings and wolf-eliminator
~you are my sunshine, my only sunshine~
when i came home i saw a package addressed to my momma from Southwest Strings. (they have everything, by the way, so if you need sometin’, go there.) the package wieghed about -.5 ounces, considering there were only four strings and a wolf-eliminator in it. i pulled out all of the peanuts to take a peek at my strings before i went to voice lessons, and then left it on the kitchen counter, strings and wolfy still in it. when i got home i couldn’t find my happy package anywhere. i checked the garbage can outside, and sure enough, my mother had thrown away $135 worth of cello crap…thank god it’s not trash night, and thank god i am strange enough to go looking in trash cans. whew!
love,
DVD
Wow. That was embarrassing. There are many, many far worse entries, too. I’m glad the Internet has room enough to continue holding them! (Apologies for the lack of an awkward picture on this post – my scanner isn’t cooperating).

I feel like you’ve possibly told me this wolf-eliminator story before. Just to explain to me what a wolf-eliminator is.
Because I was probably all “hahaha, wolf-eliminator…what is this, dungeons and dragons?”
I think I’d rather not know what a wolf eliminator really is. I don’t see how it could possibly match the image in my head and don’t know if I can handle that kind of disappointment.
Yeah, it’s kind of disappointing. Basically a wolf is a warbly tone on an instrument, and the wolf eliminator is a little buffer that goes around the string the wolf is on to try and cancel it out.
The wolf tone article on wikipedia explains it better.
Those are awesome. Hehe.
And kudos for being brave enough to post stuff from so many years ago. I cringe to even think my Unews articles from 2006 are online somewhere…*shudders*
I like your poem, Deanal. Also, I remember the night mom threw out your stuff. I think I even remember being there to watch you dig through the trash…sweet memories.
