Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Sorry, Teppy. I dislike that those kind of torture porn films are lumped into the horror genre. I like scary monsters, aliens and stuff. NOT sicko human on human freak-o shit. I can't even get a smile out of the campier aspects of it. I just get wrapped up in the "gah, humans, they suck" aspect and then spiral down.

Then I need to go hug a vampire or a werewolf.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I would like to note that The Human Centipede is a total misnomer. It only had six legs! It was the human termite or something.

It did have twelve limbs, but if we're going to count that way, centipedes only have one pair of limbs per segment. We'd need to rename it The Human Millipede. And then probably add a lot more segments.

On the down side, some tin pot dictator in some horrible little country is trying to figure out how to do it. But first they'll focus on cloning themselves.

He could combine the projects. I'm just saying! "Grovel, my minions, before the self-replicating conga line of ME!" That'd be more of a human flatworm deal though.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

::snerk:: This, too, helps my brain be less horrified.

This is totally me.

Then I need to go hug a vampire or a werewolf.

Hmmm. I can't decide which vampire to hug!

I have trouble choosing between Eric Northman and Selene from Underworld.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Avoid the sparkly ones.

Yep, me too. Which is why I don't watch stuff from that genre. The "humans suck" part, plus the "wow, this is kind of a boring story. Why bother?" If I'm watching horror, I want it to be interesting and inventive, thanks.

Then I need to go hug a vampire or a werewolf.

I agree with this statement, and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I want 'em naked or wrapped in leather & latex.

I ate two cupcakes--the rejected one from the bake sale dozen I had to do. Probably a mistake this late.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, and then I apologized for cringiness much later in life, and the apology was all for me and not at all helpful to her. So the best thing would have been to just let it go. She`d forgotten and so should I have.
 
In amongst the other hot gossip about old schoolmates I got over this weekend, I also learned that my childhood bully who I refused to facebook friend is still a complete asshole. Was an asshole to my friend during her first bout with cancer. Seriously? So I feel no need to forgive her or try to find closure or anything. She was and remains a horrible person and I`m happy she`s no longer anywhere near my life.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Please tell me that is a typo.

Ha, yes.

THEY COME FROM EGGS?!?

Hey, man, I didn't ask a lot of questions when faced with the cuuuuute.

How exactly did you acquire said kitten?

No smuggling involved!I went to pick up my chickens and eggs like usual and the farmer asked me if I knew anyone who would want a kitten an I foolishly asked what they looked like, so she brought me to see them and, voila, kitten with no name crawling around on my chest all purry while I type.

Eta: gender indeterminate. Farmer thought female, but I know I can't tell at this point.

I'm kind of a little bit tempted to see Due Date just out of (utterly explicable) RDJ love.
