Huh.
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Despite running rampant on the farm (and clambering all over the combines and tiller things- amazing we all still have our original limbs!) it was impressed on us that we Never Play in the Working Silos. I don't think any of us ever went inside one of those things. Now the abandoned one missing panels with the door removed, sure....
I miss the old barn. It came down in a freak microburst type storm that also took down the new equiptment shed meant to be its replacement. But oh, the hayloft and the light that came through the walls and the sound of rain on the tin roof and the smells.
And the scary vintage tractor that I accidentally started once.

I ate my super yummy burrito, so I think that wasmy EATing for the day.
A guy I grew up with died from suffocation via grain. He got sucked under a huge mass of grain while helping unload it from trucks into grain elevators.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
Huh.
She also made "art" with roadkill, and refused to lable her containers of "art supplies" before she put them in the freezer.
Oh, her website is still up. Bob the dead cat: [link]

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Very much not right.

See, that probably never would have happened to me. Even as a child I had a quite vivid imagination, and I was good at playing the "What's the worse thing that could happen?" game. In that scenario, I'm sure I would have imagined exactly what happened to that guy.
But oh, the hayloft and the light that came through the walls and the sound of rain on the tin roof and the smells.
Yes!

Vintage tractors are not scary. Except for the lack of safety features.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Huh. Bob likes mousie braiiiiiinnns?

When you are 9 and climbing on your grandpa's old tractor and with a COUGH it starts and starts backing out of the barn (it was already in reverse) it is VERY SCARY.
