Oh no, it’s a shame all of your 5 year old nieces and nephews will have to miss out on this weeks showing of Cannibal Holocaust! :cry:

Wow, 3 REPO posts in a row. We're back to REPO's personal diary in here then, eh?

The only excitement in my dull, monotonous life comes from my daily readings of Mark Trail and REPO's posts to this thread, as well as occasionally burning down a K-Mart, and I barely ever get to do that anymore.

The nieces are 11-13. The nephews are 8. And even if I did plan on showing them Cannibal Holocaust, which by virtue of its unsimulated violence against animals it isn't, I wouldn't show it to high-schoolers, much less middle schoolers. I was going to show Friday the 13th since this Friday is the 13th.

If you noticed they're spread apart by weeks. Weeks in which no one said a damn thing. No sympathies for my brother and no remarks about my niece taking a piercing kit to school.

Do Kmarts even exist anymore?

Where on earth do you even find a K-Mart any more? I mean, except abandoned buildings that haven't yet been repurposed or torn down.

The Kmart near me (45-60 minutes away) was turned into a Target. I wonder if that one sells the dragon fruit yogurt that I used to buy in Florida?

And FYI the boys weren't going to be there. I make it a rule where any movie nights with just the girls has fewer restrictions but if the boys and toddlers are in attendance it's an all-ages screening and subject to stricter content restrictions.

There are only two KMarts left in the continental US.

So, effectively, Mark Trail and REPO are the only excitement in my life.

We desperately need to find you some healthier sources of entertainment. While we're at it, maybe we can do the same for me.

Too bad there isn't a kind of game one can play by oneself. Maybe something one can play on a television. I think there's a term for such a thing.

Other than that there's books, films, television, comics, model building, witchcraft, photography, scrapbooking, decoupage, woodworking, the list goes on.

I'm not thrilled about the weather getting cooler here, as I'm more of a summer guy, but I'm happy about the various snacks and treats that come with fall. I was able to buy some apple cider donuts at a farmer's market near work. Looking forward to snacking on those later!
