Baby wipes
Well, I pretty much got accepted to what could become my first farming experience via WWOOF (Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms). It is essentially a volunteer program; and in exchange for their work, volunteers are provided room and board. I am just a phone call away from finalizing all the details of my arrival and such like. This particular farm specializes in mushroom cultivation, which piqued my interest. They also have several species of birds who pop out a bunch of eggs on the daily. I am thinking about how that diet might affect my system, nothing but coffee, raw mushrooms and hard-boiled eggs. I seriously hope they have baby wipes.

This may be offpoint, but the circumstances you describe reminded me of the backstory that Stephen King gave to his pseudonymic personality, Richard Bachman. He described Bachman as a dairy farmer by day and a novelist by night: the metaphor showed us an intertwining of the art of husbandry and the art of verbal composition. I think this metaphor goes back a couple of millenia to Theocritus and Vergil---but there seems to be some inherent connection between cultivation of the land and cultivation of the verbal arts. Unfortunately, as a suburb dweller and a corporate employee, I was never able to experience this; much to my chagrin.
