I have the fear of being afraid and I'm on strike against strikes

MISC.
Box-a container, case, or receptacle, usually rectangular, of wood, metal, cardboard, etc., and often with a lid or removable cover. (Courtesy of dictionary.com) Relatively useful when moving objects or storing leftover zitti (That's where Ziploc comes in handy). Also used as play objects for animals or small curious children. Within a box, you can find many things: your mug from graduation, grandma's sewing machine, a chair leg, old biographies on Hitler, and, my favorite, dust that you forgot to wipe off of what you stored in there. Basically, good memories and insights into what you were like 30 years ago or 30 minutes ago.

When I was a young child, (physically, because if we were speaking mentally, I'm still three) I enjoyed Lord of the Rings...a lot. I was obsessed with the books and wanted more. When they released the movies, it was like heaven on eartth. However, I also enjoyed Star Wars. It was my first obsession, but it died away. Don't take me wrong, I always liked it there after, but I wasn't obsessed or enthralled or intrigued or any other pretty adjectives. But, like most things, my love for Lord of the Rings died away. I was lost without an obsession. That was until I discovered Star Wars again. My firend told me of the up and coming Phantim Menance. I decided to give it chance, and I found my passion.

Tape- a strip of cloth, paper, or plastic with an adhesive surface, used for sealing, binding, or attaching items together; adhesive tape or masking tape. (3rd definition out of dictionary.com) Very useful if your term paper rips or if an insubordinate will not shut up. Provides loads of fun and enjoyment for those of all ages. Allows creativity of different levels and, when Sharpie is added, lets you become whoever you want (restrictions may apply). Favorite type-duct-simply because it's shiny and that appeals to 3 year old/possum mentality. It also allows you to keep boxes shut. It will not allow your memories (or in my case, dust) escape.

My passion for Star Wars was rekindled. I wanted more and was thrilled at the fact Georgie was making a prequel trilogy. After viewing Phantom Menace, I went home, dug through a bunch of dusty boxes, and found my VHS Star Wars videos. I wanted to watch them all and rediscover the magic (that and the fact I had forgotten the whole story and was frankly quite confused by the movie) As the prequels began to release I was more involved in Star Wars than I ever was with Lord of the Rings. However, I had no one to talk to about it. I resorted to talking to myself, but the people at the bus stop next to me walked away. (I think they were Trekkies, but that's a different stroy). I then ventured to my best friend, the computer, and went onto the internet. After a few clicks I was at the Star Wars website and then I discovered the blogs. I chose my name, confusedone, simply because I had no clue as to what I was doing or was going to do, but it seemed fun. At first, it took some used to adapting to the 5 or 6 hours I spent at the computer, but I got used to it. I enjoyed writing, reading, and leaving comments on the blogs. I made good friends. I spent most of my time at the blogs and was having a simply wonderful time. However, one day, something happenned and I was rather dissuaded to come back to the blogs.

Weird tape dispenser packing thing that you can buy at the UPS store-There are no dictionary entries for weird tape dispenser packing thing that you can buy at the UPS store, but weird, tape, dispenser, packing, thing, that, you, can, buy, at, the, UPS, store are spelled correctly. (according to dictionary.com) Useful if you need to tape boxes together or if there is an intruder in the middle of packing up your old Lovin' Spoonful records (it can double as a projectile). It can hurt if you miss the tape and cut your finger instead, but 3 hours and 2 stitches later you can get back to packing. Sometimes, when it slices you instead of the tape for the fifth time in 3 minutes, it can get you thinking about why you're packing. However, you have to pack and so after contemplating where you've been and where you're going, you tape up the box with the Weird tape dispenser packing thing that you can buy at the UPS store.

I hadn't visited the blogs in over 2 months. Part of me was missing it, the other part was concerned about school (thank God for that other dimension of my personality. Without it I'd be flunking) I decided to try to come back. I made a new blog entry, but didn't say much. I don't know if I was reluctant to write much or if the essay that was due the next day was eating away at my insides. I really didn't blog after that even though I said I would. School was easing down with each week approaching the end of the year. I felt like I was missing something. I ventured, once again, onto the internet. I found myself at the blogs. And here I am.

Scissors-(used with a singular or plural verb) a cutting instrument for paper, cloth, etc., consisting of two blades, each having a ring-shaped handle, that are so pivoted together that their sharp edges work one against the other (often used with pair of) (I thank dictionary.com one more time) Useful if you just bought a new shirt with a tag on it or if your credit card expired. Dangerous when in the hands of suicidal people, homicidal people, or small children. Allows you to cut the tape off of the box you stored your shot glasses in (also can be used to take the bubble-wrap of of them). They allow to cut away the tape and let your memories come out (dust). You then unpack the shot glass from the fish hatchery and place it on the shelf in your new residence.
