Life of Darkness


In the wilderness, the sun I had not seen

Covered in shade, a newer light was a scene

But the brightness could have borne


My darkness has made me mourn

Cordelia chocolate

 March 24, 2026

    I am going to blog about the story of one of the most famous chocolate killer. Her name was Cordelia and she was a not the nicest looking lady but she thought she was and that's all that matters. Now this guy who I can not remember his name, moved him and his wife to San Francisco for a job opportunity. He falls madly in love with her. She was one of the bros you know. she loved drinking beer and having sex and talking about vulgar topics. Now the whole town found out that they were having an affair because they weren't very discreet about it. Anyways it got back to the wife and she and the husband separated. Now him and Cordelia can have an affair in real life. Mind you she was also married just separated because in those times you weren't allowed to divorce your partner. Anyways the guy and her had a whole like party relationship and he became in debt till he got a job opportunity and turned his life around. He moved somewhere and then was like I want to get back with my wife. Well Cordelia didn't take this good and she sent threatening letters to the wife. Then later the wife received a box of chocolate from Ms. C. Now the wife thought it was someone from San Francisco and ate three of the chocolates, her sister also ate three, and the rest of her family ate one or none at all. Now the chocolates were laced with arsenic and so the wife and sister died. 

Anyways Cordelia was given life in jail without the possibility of parole. I am reciting this from memory and also I am giving credit to Bailey Saran and her Dark History podcast.

 Broke Down Again


“Grind Noise” Not the starter failing to work

Why does it always have to be a jerk

Some days I try and communicate to it

Just to get it to quit

The starter's efficiency is falling out the window

Fix it… I don’t know

Better do a service

So that it will safely surface 

The starter is responsible for starting the car

It is not a challenging bar

Innovation is sometimes a key

Training myself to fix this beauty

As I educate myself, it will operate

The respect for my starter is great

Island Story - Marooned

 





 I Am

I stand like my boss when I am thinking

I do small gestures with my mouth that my friends and family do

I work on cars like my past 5 generations

I have a playlist full of songs that calm me when I drive

I am very talkative when I am at home

Drive around, enjoying the countryside as I used to when I was little with my parents

I take off my hat when I am eating

Always pray before I eat

Go to the safari in Ashland every year with friends and family from Omaha

I am Music on a Cassette Radio

acrostic poem

 super cold

never nice and warm

on the trees

winter sucks

gl

Forest

 Unicorns are pink

Until they get shot, then they are red

Well they still are white, they're just bleeding red

truck talking is a life style

Lets go on an Adventure, hobbits

Hmm... Something seems off... I'm the deer in the headlights

"A leaf... for me?" "Thank You":)

I like dogs

Journal 12/8/2025

 what is your ideal day look like?

If I had complete control over my day, I would have no school. I will wake up at 9 and it will be raining. I will be able to read my Frankenstein book. I would watch my favorite movies, Coraline,the Corpse Bride, and the Now you see me series. I would also probably drink hot cocoa. I would also work out because that's what I like to do. I think I would also sleep. Hopefully, I will have fun, and I will enjoy it.

Opposites

  The daughter of billionaire Richard Marksman Sr., Olivia Marksman, is in love with her modern mansion in Los Angeles, her Chanel bag, and the newest iPhone money can buy.  Her father, CEO of Marksman Luxury Dealers, just sold his last Rolls-Royce for the year and thought that it would be a great idea to celebrate with his family. Richard, knowing that he had not seen his brother, Mathew Marksman, for a while, believed that they should celebrate at the family farm in Ames, Iowa.

Nervously, Olivia gave in and hopped into the family's private jet and took off east to the Midwest. When deplaning, Olivia got the smell of fresh air and cattle manure as the airport is next to a feedlot.  Awaiting their arrival, Mathew was there with his mud-covered 6.7 Powerstroke and his daughter, Daisy. Tired, they all go to the farm and get ready for supper. Beef roast and French onion dip for the bread was for supper. Though smelling really good. She could not get over the fact that she was just on a dirty, smelly old farm. As she goes to bed in the old farmhouse, she can hear the cool fall breeze coming from the windowsill.  Olivia falls asleep, dreaming of being back home, when she is rudely awakened by the alarm clock at 5:30 in the morning. Forcefully being woken by the alarm clock, Olivia gets up and hears something from the kitchen. There in the kitchen is Daisy, cooking eggs and bacon for breakfast. Olivia rudely asks for her eggs sunny side up with lemon pepper. Daisy does not even know what lemon pepper is. “Eat those eggs, there’s work to be done”, says Daisy. Olivia ate her eggs quickly and grumpily, as there was work to be done on the farm. She got outside, and her Uncle Matt’s truck was gone, along with her parents, nowhere to be seen. Uncle Mathew comes outside, “They're in town for the weekend. You’ll stay with us and help around here.” Those were not the words that she ever wanted to hear. She tried to contact them, but she was in a no-service mode on her phone. No service. Stuck at a farm. A smelly, dirty, country farm. From here, Daisy tosses Olivia a shovel and a bucket and tells her calmly,  “Go to the horse barn and pick up manure and put it in the wagon.”  Discussed, she agrees to do it along with many other chores for the day. At the end of the day, Olivia was so exhausted that she skipped supper and went to bed, awakened by the alarm clock once again. A new day was here, and she got up by herself. So hungry, she goes into the kitchen where food was once again. This meal was devoured. Olivia would not have even cared about what it looked like; it was gone. Today, when Olivia goes to do chores, she goes out with more than her skirt, tank top, and heels. She put on some of Daisy’s overalls and muck boots. Back out in the lot, Daisy and Olivia get the chores done in half a day. Olivia was starting to enjoy her time at the family farm, although it did suck when she first got there. As nightfall comes around the corner, Olivia hears a truck coming up the drive. It's her uncle’s pickup. She was so excited that she could finally leave. When her parents get to the house, they show up with the newest Chanel bag there is. This was a trip to get some responsibilities out of Olivia, the spoiled billionaire’s daughter.

journal entry 11/18/2025

How to build a friend 101.
 That's the name on the door, as I step into the room I see a diverse group of people. There are some people who are amputees, some have dyed hair, others have glasses. Either way they are all here for the same reason as me. Building a friend. "what are some qualities you like in a friend?" Professor O said. "Loyalty" a guy with black glasses answered. "respect" the girl with the pink hair said. "Qualities that you want in a friend usually mirrors the qualities you have in yourself. When you choose a friend usually you will unconciously pick a person compatabile to you." If I had to build a friend I would choose a person who is funny, loyal, and kind to all. They have to have a good head on their shoulder while also being able to have fun. Build a friend 101.

The pretty little property

 The beautiful green grass

Makes you want to lay down and crash 

With pretty blue sky's 

Maybe you want to close your eyes 

Even a nice little house 

For you and your spouse 

Then watch the pretty sunset 

Hopefully the house keeps you out of debt
