Peace! I Beseech Thee!

I’ll never get the hang of Thursdays.
Saw “Chronicles of Narnia” last night and it was super great. Highly recommended. Very faithful to the books, as far as my broken memory allows me to remember. The characters were great and I think I knew Susan in a previous life. Or possibly this one. The girl that played Susan looked really, really, really familiar to me and it drove me absolutely nuts and still is.
I don’t think Tricia noticed me tear up a few times…
Last night was also the gift exchange between a few of us. It was a lot of fun and everyone did really great on the gifts. I got an Electric Buddha and it’s awesome. It’s a little red box that plays ambient loops for me.
And of course, since it was Thursday and I had to work in the morning there was lots of wine and beer and insanity and fun at Adam and JoLynn’s place. Wheee.
I can’t write today for some reason. Brain no work good.
I think I’m gonna have Boulevard Wheat and Cranberry & Vodka on tap Saturday night. Someone’s gonna throw up, and it just… might… be… me!
I have a vague memory of talking to someone about their (and my) right (or possibly left) side being colder than their other. Who was that? Or was it a dream?
I won’t bind my strings to you
But build my world besides you
Watching you draw a line
Some say you are, you are
Just like a butterfly
Whose broken wings will spread
To softly feel your mood
Over the blue sky full of you
Pink love, pink love, pink love
Just like a fairytale
My only reason naturally
Starts to get to me
Pushing my way through
Mesh of life
I want to kiss the sickness of mind
My heart without reason
Sunken to deep disappointment
Spreads over universe
With a knife
I want to bleed out distress like this
It’s not just a fairytale
It’s painted by me
It’s not just loneliness between you and I
If on magic mountain you find you can breath
Then stay and don’t look back
To the blue woven sky
Storms of petals are pouring down
Pushing their way through our pink love
So many polka dots painted by me
Spreads over universe for you
And I, I want to kiss
Pink love, pink love
I want to kiss
Pink love, pink love
In my mind
I state myself
The clock is ticking without you
Some may say illness
So called so called love
The sickness of mind

I totally bought a keg of Boulevard Wheat for the party Saturday. Mmmmm…
Hello There Little Girl
December 26, 2005 12:00 am [1 Comment]
I have a well documented, irrational fear of creepy little girls. This started with The Ring, which scared the hell out of me. Ever since then it seems like the creepy little girl has become the horror theme du jour. Obviously creepy little girls set something off in our primitive hind brains. At least mine.
So I’ve been bored as hell for the last few days. I’ve pretty much had nothing at all to do since Friday. So I started downloading games. Downloaded Call of Duty 2 and played that quite a bit. I think I’m almost done. Been fun, but a little repetitive. Last night I downloaded F.E.A.R. which I had seen ads for on Penny Arcade. Looked pretty cool, but I couldn’t help but notice that the cover featured a really, really creepy little girl. Long, stringy black hair, face down, white dress. The works.
I get the whole game downloaded and install it. It’s like… maybe 10:30pm? Start playing and she shows up immediately. Fuck it. Wait till it’s day time.
I can admit when I’m scared.
So this morning I get up with the resolve to kick that bitch’s ass. Get some F.E.A.R. going and it’s a pretty good game. The gun mechanics are pretty weird. I feel like I can’t miss even though the bullets seem to be going all over the place. No creepy little girl for a few levels and then there she is. Shredding the flesh off my team mates. She left noting but their bloody skeletons behind. So then I jump down into a corridor and she’s walking, slowly of course, right at me and everything around her is exploding. I get blown out the window, recover, go down into a warehouse and now whenever I turn around she runs out of view giggling.
Creepy little girls ALWAYS have to giggle. That’s how you can tell they are the embodiment of pure evil.
Demons I can take. Monsters, mutant apes, evil doctors, Nazis, rabid mega dogs, nightmares from the dungeon dimensions and all manner of undead are no problem. I might take a break now and then to let my heart slow down but it’s Not. A. Problem.
You can keep your fucking creepy little girls though.
Merry Christmas

Hello new iPod owners! You’ve been emailing me all morning. I hope you are enjoying your new iPods. vPod is right here.
I have to say, one of my favorite parts of Christmas for the past few years has been seeing you all suddenly start streaming in on Christmas morning.

Coheed just plain rocked. That’s all I can say. They just completely rocked.
Flee the Seen was great too.
New Amsterdams and The Living Things I could have done without. Time would have been better spent eating pizza. Or drinking less.
And now for the apologies:
Afentra, I’m sorry I hugged you so many times.
Lazlo, I’m sorry I hugged YOU so many times.
Everyone at the Beaumont Club, I’m sorry I hugged you so many times.
Steve, I’m sorry.
Dining room wall, I’m sorry.
I hope you’ll all forgive me.
