The worms crawl in
The worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle
On your snout.


I was in the arboretum back home with my mom on Monday and coming back to the car I notice something was missing, in that odd way that you know that something isn't right but have no clue what.

After searching for a bit, I noticed one of the pear trees was cut down. My pear tree. The one with a plaque saying it was planted just a few days after my birthday, the one that I used to hug every time I went to the arboretum. I stared at the stump for a few seconds, then sat down on it and cried.

I know it was diseased and probably needed taking down before it infected anything else, but still...it was my tree. It just doesn't seem fair that the tree should die before I did.

Can't remember losing any trees, but I remember being really pissed off one year when the electric company sprayed heavy herbicides under their wires and right through the berry patch on the hill where I used to live. We never had a good berry crop again as long as I was out there.

On another note, where did you hear that rhyme? It sounds a lot like one I was taught as a sort of nursery rhyme as a kid, only that one was like this:

The worms crawl in
the worms crawl out
In your stomach
and out your mouth

If you see
a herse go by
You will be
the next to die

They'll wrap you up
In a bloody white sheet
And bury you under
six foot deep

Don't you ever laugh
As the hearse goes by
Or you may be
The next to die.

And then it went like you said and various disturbing descriptions of your body rotting.

On a random note, are you still on Sages/Nexus in general? Cause one of mine got ditched on his date and is rather sore over it.

The thread in the warehouse? Was wondering what to do about that. I don't play Rock there, and it just up and froze.

Want to start a new row for after Rock's gone and just assume he left? I don't like assuming things about other people's charas, but I'm not sure how else to unfreeze it.

And I'm sure Plant wants to show off Audrey.

I was wondering about that too; thought you guys had moved on somehow and I'd missed it. I have no idea about what the plot is doing, but perhaps Plant could slip away with Quickstrike and leave the others to do whatever, or is that not kosher by you guys?
