brb_evilSomeday I'll change my side picture. Maybe. When I draw something new. And that one makes me seem so angsty. But I'm really not. Except that I just cut off all my hair in the bathroom. Haha, yeah. That was really angsty. But, back to the point, that picture's only there because I LOVE Vimes. And how awkward this is going to look when I change it eventually.
I love that trailer for the HGttG movie!
I was babysitting for Liverpool yesterday, and the cat of the babysitees kept freaking me out. He is SO scary. I went over to look at their copy of the HGttG TV show, and he literally jumped on my head. I jerked back in utter shock and he went flying sideways with a look of contempt. I was so moved, I ran over to the table and started writing a Guide fic that was Actually Serious. Crazy, I know. Oh, perhaps I should mention that the kids had gone to bed. I'm not irresponsible. But I'd just gotten onto the second chapter of the fic, when something winds itself behind my back. I flinch and look back, and there's the damn black cat, lying down between my back and the chair. For the rest of the night, he kept freaking me out with various thumps and windings. In my story which I may or may not post, Arthur experiences almost exactly what I did that night. I swear, that cat is a Dark Mage in disguise. He's going to shift back someday and I'll walk into the living room to find him lounging on the couch, wand idly held like a cigarette between two fingers. I'll jump back in surprise and he'll flow to his feet.
"Hello," he'll say purringly, "Nice to see you again." And then something horribly sadistic will happen.
And yes, I did spend quite a lot of last night figuring this out. Especially while Demon-Cat was staring at me from the top of the couch.
Generally when I post one of these, I have some interesting piece of writing to share. But as of right now, I don't. Maybe I'll think of something later.
I went to a French play at some french college on Friday. And, I hope none of them are reading this, but it stunk. Almost. It was a musical comedy of Romeo and Juliet, Cyrano of Bergerac, and A Midsummer's Night's Dream. They didn't even mix them up. It was just various scenes from them at different times.
PLUS they didn't write their own music for it. They used Living in America from RENT for a love song between Lysander and what's-her-name. They used November from RENT as some medieval dance song at the dance where Romeo and Juliet meet. They used Your Eyes from RENT for the love song in the balcony scene. They used Everything's All Right from JCS for some sort of go-to-sleep song in the forest with the fairies. For all of these, they had slightly modified lyrics in french. Then, for the end song, they translated Seasons of Love from RENT into french verbatim. Saisons D'Amour. Yeek. I have to admit, having the RENT songs in it was kinda nice. I sang along with the real lyrics quietly. BUT, it was nowhere NEAR as good as last year's Rocky Horror Show in French. That was Brilliant. Last Year's I mean. The guy who played Frankenfurter was amazing. But this year? Sheesh. I mean, they could have at least got a few laughs and used some West Side Story songs. And they gave Romeo and Juliet and Cyrano of Bergerac a HAPPY ENDING. That's just... wrong.
I suppose I shouldn't lose my record by not putting in some tests.
Ha! Rational AND Reasonable? I doubt it.

This is nice. I'm a tidy bundle. Obviously, my lack of most physical activity was a factor. How sad.
I'm SO accepting. Heh, look at my lowest. But I was so SURE I'd be in a cult...
Duh. I Knew That. I'm too cheerful to be Goth. I'd better start dressing more interestingly. Loner, huh?
300-350 Level 1 geek (Urkel) I had 305 points. How sad. Damn you guitar playing skills!!! Lost me a ruddy 50 points. http://www.student.ipfw.edu/~simodk01/Geek.htm
I guess that's it for tests. Hmm... How else can I waste your life? And by your, I'm probably referring to Penny and Marion, or no-one.
In this song, it sounds like Cor Devoto Deo Torto. Which I have VERY loosely translated to mean Devoted to the Heart of the Godly Tortoise. Which, by the way, would make a really great name for a group.
I was so proud of myself for creating a Jack's daughter that wasn't a Mary-Sue, but then I got bored of roleplaying and never got to use her. How sad.
I've got to find some male pyjamas. I'm intending to dress up as Arthur for May 6th, but I haven't got the right kind of pyjamas. I'm pretty sure Arthur wouldn't wear pyjamas with little Snoopys all over them. It would be contrary to his pride. But I haven't got any others that look even remotely like guy jammies. If anyone has any suggestions, please tell me. I need those ones that button up on the top part, and have cuffs on the bottom part. Cuffs will be excused if the pyjamas are pinstriped or plaid, but nothing else. Help!
I guess I'll end with an interesting children's story Penny and I wrote a while back. Penny is in italics and I am in bold.
FRED THE WOBBLY HEAD IS STUCK IN A FIRE
Fred the Wobbly Head was stuck in a fire. The fire was in his school.
"Oh no!" he cried,"I will burn ALL up." He ran around flailing his arms.
"Wait! What is it that my teacher told us to do in a fire?" he wondered.
"I know!" he cried,"Stop, Drop and Roll!" So little Fred stopped running, dropped to the floor, and rolled down the hall. But the naughty fire kept burning.
"That doesn't help at all," moaned Fred, wobbling his head, "There must be something else she told us. Oh! I remember! Don't bring anything with you when exiting the building. But then all my things will be burned!" He thought again.
"Wait! That's it! exit the building!"
So he ran to the closest exit. But OH NO! It was on fire too!
So he died.
THE END
Moral: Never listen to your teacher.
