Feb. 27th, 2005 11:50 pmSo weird, haven't seen home since Friday morning...
Today was fun, despite various missed connections with PVTA today that made my life a wee bit more complicated, cold and annoying today than it really needed to be. I discovered that it's not a bad walk from
morlock's to the mall this way, and had some time to mull over stuff while waiting for the bus at
sydneycat's... which showed up about 40 minutes late. *sigh*
But I digress. I had a fun afternoon out with syd, and then watching terrible horrible no good very BAD horror movies, one of which was very obviously dubbed from italian and featured lots of creepy music, crimped hair and little girls in mary janes that forced girls to kill themselves, and the other was this strangely stage-play like thing starring Bela Lugosi and a midget that was a cross between Clue and cruise ship dinner theater. Bad movies, no biscuit. But still perversely fun. I'm amazed how people actually found this stuff scary fifty years ago. Which makes me wonder what sort of fucked up shit's going to make it into horror movies in 2050. I mean, think about it...
I have in my possession the 5th volume of Preacher which I'm halfway through, and
sydneycat's GBA... on which is Shining Force - Ressurection of Dark Dragon... I am pretty boggled by the fact that there are SNES level graphics on this bitsy little thing... and wow, if this isn't the EXACT same game as Shining Force that I played through three years ago on sunny's old Sega. No matter, I'm still enjoying it. It's still as remarkably silly as I remember. It even has the same friggin' music. :)
Anyway, I mentioned that I had some time to think... I really need to accomplish some things this year, and kinda simplify a bit... god, I feel like I'm doing the growing up thing way too late sometimes, but I guess better late than never right? *sigh* And better done than good. It's so funny, I look in the mirror and see lines around my smile and my eyes and the occasional gray hair and think wow, I so don't deserve those yet. Wrinkles, I think, should be like the stripes, stars and bars you get in the the armed services, not just markers of time passing. But hey, if that's what it takes to spur me on about shit, if what I need is a reminder that life's too short to whinge about shit I can't change... so be it. 'cause damn it, I want to have fucking earned my laugh lines.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Same old song, different lyrics. Or is this the batshit techno remix?
