i found another outlet for stress relief.
i bought the COMPLETE and UNABRIDGED collection of winnie-the-pooh books. :) and this little miss and little men treasury. you know...i suspect i might have a peter pan complex.
but anyways. yes. winnie-the-pooh is really relaxing to read because it doesn't require you to think much while you're completely absorbed in to pooh's world, where animals with disorders talk and live in houses. yea eeyore's kinda neurotic and i think rabbit has OCD. piglet is virtually frightened of the world (countless phobias) and tigger has ADHD. the only ones who are normal are probably kanga and roo. but then again i suppose you can't call talking animals normal right?
i still adore them though.
here are two excerpts:
here's pooh trying to deceive some bees by pretending to be a thunder cloud.
He thought for a moment and said: 'I shall try to look like a small black cloud. That will deceive them.'
'Then you had better have the blue balloon.' you (Christopher Robin) said; and so it was decided.
a few moments later....
'Christopher Robin!'
'Yes?'
'Have you an umbrella in your house?'
'I think so.'
'I wish you would bring it out here, and walk up and down with it, and look up at me every now and then, and say "Tut-tut, it looks like rain." I think, if you did that, it would help the deception which we are practising on these bees.'
Well, you (Christopher Robin) laughed to yourself, 'Silly old Bear!' but you didn't say it aloud because you were so fond of him, and you went home for your umbrella.
haha. A.A Milne is brilliant.
