!!Australia here I come!!
2002-05-11 @ 7:53 p.m.

Okay, so get this. A guy in quite a nice, fancy car was just driving down the street and all of a sudden stopped and pulled into the parking lot of my building, stopping in the visitors parking. He jumped out of his car, grabbed an empty pop can off the grass and put it into his trunk then drove away. To see it was rather funny. By the look of his car obviously he wasn't so strapped for cash that a five cent depsosit on a pop can would buy him supper for a month or anything like that. Or maybe, do ya think he bought the car with the returns from previously picked up cans and now this can was going towards his trip around the world? Hmm, that's not a bad idea. Maybe I should scoure the streets for pop cans so I can go to Australia on the refund. Now how many cans do you suppose it would take to get me there? Let's see, a one way ticket costs right around $2000 canadian - depending on stop overs - so that would take oh roughly say a quatrillion five cent cans. But then if I use my water bottles that also bring in a five cent return then I could go for a quatrillion of them also, you know so I'mnot broke when I get there. So that's cool, all I need is two quatrillion five cent returns and then watch out L cause here I come! hahahaha hohohohoh waaaaa, that's really not funny.

So anyone have any cans or bottles you wanna donate to my cause?? Come on it's a worthy cause, you'd be helping the needy, healing the depressed, and fulfilling a little girls dream...okay, so I'm not EXACTLY a little girl, but come on, can't you see these puppy dog eyes just begging for you help. Don't it break you heart to know mine breaks everyday and it could all be better with a simple acquisition of two quatrillion five cent returns. Please, prett pretty please...with a cherry on top for good measure. Hmm, so you're really not gonna help:( well it was worth a shot. Hey, do you even think there would be two quatrillion cans or bottles in this town? You know, I'm kinda sceptical about that. I could raid the shelves of all the stores that carry cans and bottles, but thenthat would kind of defeat the purpose. I would be spending what money I have to buy these cans and bottles, I would then have to drink every last drop cause after spending all my money on getting them I'mnot gonna just waste the drink and then I could go return the empties for five cents each. Somewhere in there I think the point of SAVING money would be lost.

But this really is depressing, I'm here, she's there and a guy in a fancy car just took the can that could have started my funding towards getting there. By the way, how many is a quatrillion? I don't even think I would know when I got there. Okay, I'm gonna turn serious here for a second cause I just figured this out, to get to Aus with five cent returns for a $2059.70 one way ticket from a bigger town south of me to her city with one stop over in Aus would take exactly 41194 returns, hmm well maybe not quite a quatrillion but it still seems like it. Though I'll look at it this way, if half the people in my town would give me just ONE can each I would be on my way, and if the other half gave me just ONE can each then I would have at least enough money when I got there that I wasn't broke cause then that would be $2425.96 australian. Not bad...when I look at it that way, but since I'mnot gonna go around and collect 41 thousand cans, sorry love I would if I could but I can't so well I just can't, it's still a big number and a big distance. And this depressed little girl isn't getting any better, hehe I figure if I say little girl enough I'll pull at your heart strings and you'll help me build wings from you silk stockings so I can fly away on the breeze and flutter down into my girls arms. Still no hey, wow you really are one tough chic/dude.

So how long do you suppose I can carry out this entry that is soley based on what I saw when I looked out the window while eating dinner? See people think I should be bored living all alone, but I can entertain myself very easily as I think I just made obvious, either that or I just made it very obvious that I have no life so I go around figuring out how many returns it would take to buy a ticket to Australia. Yeah, I agree, it's more the second on I know.

Well, since I have no life I can't really end this by saying I HAVE to go, cause we both know I have no where to go or be off to, so let's just say I'm looking out the window more than I'm looking at the screen and have nothing else to say in relation to my dinner time sighting. So take care of youself...don't forget to save all those cans and bottles for me;)...and L I love you and would fly to you on the wings my heart has grown but they only work to put that flutter in my stomach when you're around.
