What do you "assign" to the Shire? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I assign pumice stones. They are wonderful for scrubbing dead skin off of feet.

Ya know, I had a dream last night that I scrubbed my heels and they were so nice and smooth, except that I missed a spot...so today I scrubbed my heels and they're so nice and smooth...except for that spot I missed. Yep. Same spot. (Dr. Dream needn't explain, I think I got it on my own

)

Also, baseball games. I went to my first last month, and I was shocked at how fun they really are.

I assign that unique happenstance: a long lost fellow Downer with whom one shared and rpg, who comes back against all odds, to continue the rpg!

Oh my... I haven't been to a baseball game in such a long time! Everything about them is fun... the music, the intestines stuffed with guts AKA hot dogs, the fact that you don't really have to pay attention half the time and you'll still know what's going on, cheering and shouting and carrying on when someone hits a home run... now I really want to go see a game.

Getting to the upper secondary you applied to. It feels great.

I assign growing things. I have recently been attempting to grow a few things, like calla lilies and pumpkins and what I think looks like a citrus tree. I find it really satisfying that they are not dead yet. (as I tend to kill everything I try to grow somehow)

I assign thrift stores with retro jewelry for absurdly cheap prices. Tall glasses of cold water and bonding moments with my mum. Buying books at discount prices, blue skies, and men's ties. Sundresses and iced lattes. Holding hands and dripping cones of soft serve vanilla. Freckles and the wind in my hair.

Cheesy eggs with tomatos, mushrooms, and onions.

Babies that, for reasons I'm totally unaware of, are fascinated with watching me. A baby girl that, upon seeing me for the first time since Christmas, ran to me, arms reaching, and said, quite confidently, "Up."

The very ambitious afternoon plan, after having gotten off work early, of brewing some iced tea, peeling an orange, and sprawling on my bed with a new book. *nuzzles life for a bit like a content and affectionate kitty*
