Wait for it...
Damn! Epic milestones!
Epic milestones, duly documented.
Driving to the next city,
fetching a 25-kilo bag of wood pellets
to absorb the output of 25 felines.
Good mission!
Nitrogen is the 7th most abundant element in the universe,
and Earth's atmosphere is roughly 77.7% made of nitrogen.
Also abundant in cat shit.
For that, to complement the balance,
I seek carbon source.
And for that, friends,
dried wood pellets are like a match made in heaven.
Nitrogen and carbon.
Every old composter worth their penny
knows the chase for the sweet spot,
a righteous balance of greens and browns.
In our case, of urea and wood shavings.
Good shit.
Too much of the green stuff,
smells like ammonia, like there's no tomorrow.
Too much of the dry stuff, the carbon source,
nothing happens, kind of boring.
Such is life, ever on a mission,
a quest for the great cosmic balance.
"Station 7 and 3/4 – Fixers of the Nitrogen".
That's the title for the book alright.
