I love Freaky Friday
I love Freaky Friday

It's mind bending man

I love watching telly I do

But I don't wanna be in the television myself

It's December 2nd and I'm still wearing my Alpine hat. It's a huge improvement over the denim German helmet.

I always thought that Pretty Paper was released in 1964. I'm half-right. It was released in 1963 in the US and 1964 in the UK.

I don't actually celebrate Christmas, but I really like carols.

I like the 'mirth and glee' one too. And everything with a 'fa la la' bit.

Oh little babybirds running around in the telly

I don't like the feeling of having my trousers drag on the ground, so I tight-roll them.

That was awesome, CockneyRebel! I really enjoyed that.
Also, I do not like it when the edges of my pants drag under the back of my shoes. I have some pants where it is frayed where the pants hang behind my shoes.

I used to have an aluminium Christmas tree. My ownership of that tree met its demise when I looked up YouTube videos about German Christmas trees. I fell in love with those green candlelit trees. I bought myself artificial green tree. I also bought artificial remote controlled candles for my tree. That was back in 2020. I now have an artificial tree that's flocked. Tree flocking started in Germany in the 1800s.

I am interested in "combined autistic-eneldic disorder" (which is "my" idea). Nonverbal learning disability is an interesting topic in my opinion.

I watched this video this morning (5 December 2025), and I'm wondering¹ it if pertains to me?
I know I'm not an idiot, even though I mumble that to myself fairly often, but I'm not sure I'm particularly smart either. I am certain there are people in these forums that are smarter than me, and people who are smarter than others give then credit for. No one has divine knowledge, intelligence, and wisdom. I believe I sort of wander around those three houses and peek in side the windows and try to understand. I think that is the type of smart she is referring too. I believe I'm pretty comfortable with death. Do I KNOW what death is? I can define it. I cannot say I KNOW what happens when one dies with certainty. I have not done it, that I can remember. There are a wealth of ideas, and I have thought about the options over the years. Rather I have lived with the thought about the options and thought about the implications of those option. When I say "live with" it is believing that the option is truth for a period of time. Then I start believing "but what it is this or that instead?" Then I live with that. This as been going on since I was around six years old, and then when my older brother died, it made the finality of death all the more real. It also underlined how fragile the human body is. I'm not going to say any of the after death notions are true. We have void, reincarnation with variations, the soul lives on after death, heaven, and heaven and hell. I have not done much reading on the topic. I skim stuff once in awhile. I'm actually okay with all ideas of what comes after death except for heaven, which is what I think many people latch onto. I was surprised years ago when I read/skimmed that the Jewish faith does not have a heaven and hell. Is that universal among Jewish people? I don't know. I suspect there our outliers.

Okay. This is too long. I'm not reading this again to look for grammar, spelling, and wrong word errors. I noticed the one as I was typing. Looking for more will drag this on, time wise, and I want to use the restroom, and then get back to WoW. I'm not playing Classic, for a change. I've learned more about housing, but that is for another thread topic.

¹ - this is one of those Sound Alike words where I was thinking while typing, and I typed "wandering" instead of "wondering."
Then I started thinking about what the two words mean. I started to think although they do not have the same meaning, they are like cousins of sort in terms of thought. One wonders, and then one wanders. I'm not sure if this is at all close to being profound or even if it is 100% true.

I think mice are cute when I see them in the forest. I don't think they're cute when one is running around my apartment.

I go to bed at 9 these days or should I say nights. I record Hogan's Heroes and watch it the next day in the mornings.

I just won that book that came out very recently, the action of which is set in the universe of Stephen King's "The Stand" - the title is, I believe, "The End of the World We Know" (I believe at least, it's the original English title). Besides, I won a box of sweets

P.S. I just got a bad diarrhoea
