I like that "Your Thoughts, Please" thing. Kind of neat. Okay, I can be trained. I don't like being trained, but it appears that I can either run away from home, or learn to like it after gnetsi redesigns our sunny breakfast nook, into McDonalds.

I don't want to lose my family.

So I guess I gotta, just, uhm, adapt.

I mean, E, you've adjusted.....what's Paul's problem?

It wouldn't be very nice to my friends if I just ran off. Then later, there'd be some time where they were sitting in the kitchen, saying "Gaugie hated the new management, and he split. 'Was a bummer. He ran away."

Eeek.

I'm not used to staying places I don't like. I admit it. I get to go wherever I want. That's what Gaugie does. It's partly how he finds new places. Like DAR at SI.

I think it's temperament. Or lack of it. Could Paul actually be smart enough and unselfish enough to do something a way he doesn't want to, just so he can hang out with his best friends? Hmmmm.......

(I bet these questions look a little easy.)

I don't know. I know he's not very smart. He even has trouble putting the scenery together. Seeing the obvious problems.

Plus he'd like to ream those people who sold his rock collection, and he's pretty darn vengeful. He thinks he's Righteous. He has a little "complex" with that. Turfy.

He likes, really prefers, to just leave, when Annoying Crap washes ashore. He doesn't choose to "suffer fools." Matter of fact, he won't even stick around to set fire to them. Sad; because sometimes the exit makes him a fool himself.

"Mosey."

That's what he does ~ mosey.

Moseying, here, which is really tempting, would be a very bad thing. Very, bad. But he's a foot-voter. We'll have to teach him how to be good. I think if he just continues to realize what's really at stake, he'll be okay, and maybe fine.

He's just a little thick.

And mean.

"Get over it."
He needs to Get Over It.
("What's the big deal?")

Maybe a little ritual.
Something to fool him with.

Like those cattle guards they just paint as stripes between the fence ends on the highway.

I think he'll be a lot cheerier soon, bob up, which would be the best solution. Just get him back to banging on his keyboard, after a cup of coffee. Wasting everyone's time.

Maybe a promise to his friends to go forward without complaining or leaving.

Maybe he could do that.

That would be kind of cool, actually.

A surprise, kind of, too!

Yah.

Maybe that.



Hmm.
