Make a difference, adopt a hippy

Hippy needs a home

A few weeks ago, someone I know brought over a hippy to stay at my house. I like having the hippy in my house but my daughter is coming from the US and we need more space. I need someplace for this very nice hippy to go.

Although the hippy is entertaining and intelligent, she does not have a steady income stream at the moment. Due to her lack of financial stability, I have set up an adopt a hippy program. If you would like, you are welcome to sponsor this hippy or contribute funds for the sponsorship of other hippies. The happy hippy a/k/a DoryLama would like a commune type living arrangement which is not that easy to find in Munich.

If you would like to read more about the happy hippy, I have an adopt a hippy website. I also write about the happy hippy on my sofiasays blog

The happy hippy has a blog where she writes about her experiences as a hippy

Please help find this Happy Hippy a Home.

Here is the first adopt a hippy video

Emmy, enjoy her, I've hosted a bit (a woman and her daughters - 4 months or so) - a great time, but let's say I'm not currently open to that much fun.

@ EUnomad

I have looked at your blog a few times and I must admit that I often think that I must be missing out on something in life because most of it goes beyond my understanding and flies right over my head. So in order not to look thick, I read a lot of what you write again and maybe even a third time, and tell myself " Ahh I understand now!!" but if I am honest it feels as if the Munich fog monster has gobbled me all up, especially my brain.

Perhaps you can enlighten me, now that I have had the balls to ask about something that has me baffled completely.

I hope the hippy is helping in the search for a new home. It just seems a bit one-sided from your post and the video.

I was unaware that Munich was on the 'Sail Around the World' map. I have sponsored many hippies in my life so far. They remind me of cats. If they like you, they'll come to your porch day after day as long as you feed them. They'll even give you all the attention you don't want from them. Now and then you've got to keep them off the counters, but they are relatively harmless and sometimes you're even glad they are there. Unless you want more you should have them sprayed or neutered. If they don't like you, however, they'll piss all over the house and still expect you to change the litter box. All jokes aside, I read her webpage and it seems like she has a pretty interesting professional resume. Maybe she's having a bit of a mid-hippy crisis? Its hard to get back on your feet when you don't have any knees. Sounds like she's been through some shizza, best of luck, hard city to find yourself in.

I've had a scan of it too and I think I might be beginning to understand a few things...

Then I did something stupid. As I was plugging the wires back into the wall, I decided to lick one of them and I shocked myself.

Why, oh why did I watch that video?! Three minutes of my life I'll never get back.

"I'm learning, that hippies might be free spirited..."
Have you twigged to the fact that they might also be free-loading?

So no more booze, no more cigarettes, but still hitting the bong like an asthmatic mountain climber with an oxygen bottle. Hint: that's where the problem lies. Far be it from me to begrudge someone his or her drugs of choice, as long as they don't prevent that person from taking care of basic responsibilities. You know, responsibilities like, for example, getting a job, paying rent, those sorts of things. Living off of someone else's hard work stops after high school graduation or at the age of 18, unless our job is "trophy wife".

woof.

Oh my God! Do you people pay rent? I was under the impression that like us you owned your living quarters.
It must be awful to have to pay rent! I think I can understand the hippy!

Ooh, I misread the title and came here by accident - I thought it was "adopt a HIPPO".
Shame, as I think our bath is big enough.

Baldi, don't forget you're a kept man. I would never trouble your delicate little brain with mundane stuff like bills. It might explode, and splattered brain is a bugger to get out of the upholstery.
cabbagefairy
You mean there is a way to live without ever having to pay your own way???

Gosh sign me up! I want to be a hippy too!

That made me laugh. If you do ever get one please, please drop me a line so I can come over and see him. A hippo would be cool!

Yes but one mispronuciation while teaching it sit, heel and stay and you won't even be able to give your carpet away on TT.
Keydeck
Someone would take it. Christ, there's even a used toothbrush up for grabs at the moment.
Yeti
Forget it, for a hippo you probably need a yard brush, unused.
