burn baby burn

There is something truly cathartic about burning things for me. I think I'm lucky in having a reasonably placid childhood, with parents who cared for me, albeit loudly or distantly. Otherwise I'd probably be at least a part-time arsonist, maybe in jail.

Heh. I just realized it's another border thing - construction and destruction both. You are making the fire, keeping it going steadily, tending it; at the same time you are consuming the fuel, destroying the wood or paper or what-have-you.

I don't have a shredder, but I do have a fireplace. So as part of this move, instead of hauling boxes full of old papers around, I'm doing a little destruction.

toasty!!
