Just did one of these on /mu/ but had more fun doing a timeline of my reading habits.

The ages maybe aren't perfect on mine, I can't remember specifically how old I was for each of the things and I haven't now stopped reading authors from my earlier years.

I don't actually have ginger hair. It's really a dark brown but paint didn't have this colour. But I felt if I just put black it would look like I had black hair...

Although I do have freckly arms and am prone to moles and probably skin cancer. I see your point actually. I can't take the chances that these might turn into 100% ginger in my offspring.

it was for 3 days. a guy who lived in the apartment complex saw me taking pictures with a disposable camera. he asked me if i wanted a real camera me being the ultimate nonskeptic (i hated agent scully so goddamn much) went with him. he had cameras in his closet and when i went to look at them he locked the door behind me. I was gone for three days until someone reported to the police that they had seen me go into that apt. the guy went to jail, i guess. it could have turned out worse, i suppose, but it made me distrust everyone and fostered a negative attitude which i have kept.

Well, I really can't be bothered to MSpaint it, but still: I'm pretty sure by 10 I only read comics. By the time I was 13, I started reading stuff like Agatha Christie and Michael Crichton. At 16, I decided I had to get all highbrow, so I went for Proust, Nietzsche, Alighieri, Dostoyevsky and so on. Since them I've decided there's no point in denying I'm a nerd and honestly, don't really enjoy the so-called "classics", so I just read whatever I think may be fun: Mervyn Peake, Phillip K.

I was working out of my home and a buddy called me up and was complaining he couldn't afford the rent on the place he was living in. Since it wouldn't matter where I lived I said I'd move in with him.

Then he was almost never there.
Then I lost my job.
Then I sat around looking for work and reading comics. It started because I found out I could download them over the internet and I was poor. Reading books on my monitor sucked and I didn't have a dime for fun money pretty much the entire two years.

Your imagination and what I'm saying are two completely different things.

It was all very modern, I wasn't roughing it at all. I just lived in an old building in a remote area. I had all the modern comforts, unless you count air conditioning. I hate air conditioning. The power lines were old, but fine enough to run a heater and PC. I had internet.


Honestly, if you are very interested in living out someplace, and don't mind work/people, you should look into the Peace Corp or something.

The antenna's weren't that big. The one on his end was just a 4 foot rod. Ours was a little dish looking thing, about 3 feet across. I'd say he lived a couple miles down the road, but more then likely less then a mile as the bird flies. The guy was an idiot; so every kind of trouble. A woman would leave him stranded someplace odd. He'd try to change his tire on a hill and drop his car. He'd break something and need help fixing it. Set fire to his yard. You get the idea.
