So, the neighbour has decided to cut down these two beautiful trees that sit behind her house. I love those trees. What a travesty to see them shorn of their branches and then cut down, piece by piece. Now her yard will be completely shorn of any covering, open to the punishing sun in the summer and without beauty or grace. There is nothing sadder then seeing a healthy tree cut down in its prime.

Saw Jarhead on Saturday and it was everything I thought it would be and more. Deep and insightful and very, very, overwhelmingly pretty. Though, I have to say I found the scene where all the Marines were standing around a bonfire, shooting off their automatic weapons to be much more ... "fascinating" then the two santa hats scene, though that one wasn't anything to scoff at, believe you me.

Have also discovered the reason why the [livejournal.com profile] baylorsr sisters keep me around. I make a useful pack mule. *sly smile*

November's begun in full force, here in Michigan. The leaves fell from the trees almost overnight and while today is clear yesterday was cloud-covered and raining. Frosty morning should start anyday now. Hello cold, my old friend.

Had a terrifying moment yesterday when the Palm Pilot ran out of juice. I was sure that I had lost all of the addresses stored there and with the holidays coming that is not a good thing. Thankfully, upon finding the wall plug and rejuicing it, I discovered that they were all still there. Crisis averted, this time. *cue ominous music* *chuckle*

Am calling the ents as we speak. It'll take them a while to make up their minds but I expect to find my neighbour without a home by next year.

That is lucky. Losing addresses is not good with the Holidays coming up. *shudders at thought*

People should have to get a special permit to cut down healthy trees. In most communities, you have to apply for a permit before you can put up a fence or something, but anyone can just cut down trees that took decades to grow? A co-worker of mine put a small storage shed on her property and the community board forced her to take it down, and yet trees are vulnerable to anyone's whims. I don't get it.

Seriously. I swear, the stupidity of the world in general is getting a little hard to comprehend, let alone deal with. The frustration, it burns.
