I remember getting dirty in OK(-lahoma) as a child. We lived there briefly when I was around seven as my mother finished her education for being a teacher.
I remember milk being delivered door-to-door, ordering chocolate milk with just a slip of paper!
I remember collecting tadpoles at my second cousin's place, a huge collection.
I remember his small fountain dispensor for Coca-Cola.
I remember learning about how graveyards "worked" for the first time and cried.
I remember watching my infant brother simultaneously enjoy eating watermelon and wiping out a diaper.
One summer, probably my eighth one.

My aunt asked me if I was writing a novel.
My response:
I am always writing something. I think this particular piece is my 316th blog post in 45 months, which doesn't include my 9 collections of 100 MySpace & Facebook status, with a few uncollected things as well. I really need to finish a poem called "Sam Sang A Song Into My Samsung Phone", but I have just been a little too busy during the last probably two years since I started and almost completed it, plus the rhyming patterns are very complex and Dr Seuss-like. At least I finally got the "Moonshine" episode published for my space alien alter ego novel-in-episodes put online recently, but still have a couple episodes floating in my head, including one where I reveal where Obama really was "born", as well as one 'complete' motion picture screenplay. And there is the musical called "Wahoo! Nebraska!" about a guy trying to write a musical about Wahoo, NE but he fails miserably at it and its really just about living in Texas and the adventures with his dog. I'm just busy selling [Vibram FiveFingers] shoes at the moment, but hopefully get to come to SoDak soon to see you.
