It looks fine to me.
Complete sentences seem to be increasingly optional, anyway- just look at modern literature's addiction to the soundbite and easily digestible broken sentence.

Didn't work.
I shifted the beginning to A protruding root and spell check liked it, so I'll go with that. It's only the rough draft anyway.

Ophie, I'll be popping in and out. I'm not "sticking around," per se, but seeing posts from me won't be unheard of. I've been missing you guys. Is Haunted still using the forum?

I object, each other should be one word.

Fuck it, I think I'm going to make an entire thread for my last drawing like I did for Cthulhu. Nobody ever pays attention to the damn art thread.

Yeah, I got two pages of replies for Cthulhu; but the drawing I posted in the art thread a while back? 1 reply.

Today was a little stange.
Then, at the end of the day, I was talking to my 6 year old cousin and surprisingly in his innocent little way he said something that could be used in a broader perspective (though he didnt mean it in that way).
He was talking about how small a bug is compared to him. Then he was like compared to God, we must be like a little bug and the world will be very small too.
The way I took this is that, compared to the entire world, the average person remains as that small, insignificant bug compared to the rest of the world. So then, our problems are even smaller than that. Then why must we worry so much about small things, when put into perspective, its really nothing at all? Its along the same line of thought as trying to find beauty in life. We all know that there is soo much wrong, soo many things that aren't right, yet in the filth there is something that we can all look forward to.
If this sounds totally stupid to the rest of you guys then don't worry about it. lol. its just random thought.

If everyone on this earth was forced to spend just one day where they could not control what made them sad, or happy, or angry; one day where the could not stop crying for no reason at all; one day where their world was crumbling around them do to factors they could not change, I think that they would all have a bit more compassion for someone sitting on the curb, bawling their eyes out.

I have that problem, and I have little sympathy.
PS--NO ONE controls the things you just mentioned.

Haha, American Dad mocked goths right now.
They were on a stairwell that was all dark with candles, and Steve's friend said "smells like a Depeche Mode concert"
Turns out they were in 'goth territory'. They really looked like the type you'd find at a club except for one wearing Crow make-up.
Then they helped Steve and his friends escape by stalling a mob. Only thing they did was turn on a radio to some shitty New Wave music and dance in the lamest way possible.
That's exactly what any goth would have done!

I talk a lot about pointless things. It's really funny how I can go on and on and on at times. LIke people are like I'm usually very quiet, but really, once you get me talking, I don't think I shut up a lot. I don't think it's annoying to people though otherwise I would get a lot people being like SHUT THE HELL UP!!! lol. So i talk a lot but in moderation.
Interesting.
I'm sooo bored right now. lol.

I just read something funny in my Biology Book
"Although the terms daughter cells and sister chromatids are traditional and will be used throughout this book, the structures they refer to have no gender"

It's a shame I don't ever see she is my sin on here anymore. I remember I liked her a lot before leaving the site before.
