yummy in my tummy.

currently: bored. hungry.
listening: some guy on espn talking about some other guy from south africa.

l'enfer, c'est les autres.

my ebook of unseen academicals has NO FOOTNOTES.
i sit down to a nice bar of chocolate and my terry pratchett, only to have my dreams of silent rumbling laughter (giggle jiggle, for those of you in the know) and warm melt-in-my-mouth chocolate goodness dashed at the very first line. the very first one.
a little asterisk after a seemingly-ordinary phrase (It was midnight in Ankh-Morpork's Royal Art Museum*) that mocks me with its promise of more. ...what royal art museum? art by royalty? royalty as subjects of art? or perhaps there's no real connection at all between the royalty and the art. perhaps some little old queen just inaugurated it once, a long time ago. maybe the wind flew up and revealed her yellow polka dot panties as she did it, resulting in a tremendous scandal. maybe she wasn't wearing panties at all. maybe it's performance art. if so, was there a butt double? maybe there was once a shootout there, a bit like the one at the guggenheim in the international. maybe.
what was terry pratchett trying to tell me, damn it?
whatever it is, i. is. wanting. to. know.
even the next line (Glenda sleeps in an ancient iron bed.*). there are so many possibilities for interesting stories about beds that i don't even know how to express in words how i feel about the lack of said accompanying footnote. it breaks my heart a little, that. it really really does.
someone,
someone (THIS person) shall have to answer for this.

more later.

bah. grumble, grumble.

s'pose i should post something, what with this spate of blog-rejuvenation happening all around.

Author Note:I don't think Schizoid personality is a valid disorder (read), some of the smartest people in history were schizoid because they occupied a remote end of the intelligence bell curve. Schizotypal personality can encompass highly original thinkers as well as totally insane people so I think it's a flawed type. I think the remaining eight disorders are generally valid.

i'm odd and peculiar. not surprising in the least. i should also point out at this juncture that i have a red nose and exams in 2 days.

.

the rest of the crazy bunch - yes, all of you. i want you to break down the crazy and let me know what's what by taking this: http://similarminds.com/personality_tests.html.

oh, and i should mention that i ran across this on shreena's blog, who is a follower. i'm not quite sure why she is (because almost nobody reads this blog, including easily-bored I), but much appreciated neverthless. (i hope it wasn't an accident =D). also, i hereby publicly confess my love for chick flicks and romance. general angry emo appearance of this blog aside, there is a girly girl here, playing dress-up, putting on make-up, and smudging said make-up when there's a sad scene in a movie on. i cook, bake, sing, dance, do crafts, giggle, and thoroughly and enjoy cutting people's hair. but that could just be the scissors, knives, and general abundance of sharp edges. shhh.

.

alright, that's enough now.

.

.

currently: sniffling, surrounded by a mound of used tissues.

listening: fez / being born - u2, because i'm giving them a second chance, and only for you.

.

ps: and yes, dots are there because i couldn't fix the damn formatting. call me technologically incompetent, but it serves the purpose.

there is a hair on my nose (as the girl makes a noise somewhere behind)

hello.

i'm kind of having writer's block. write about that, you say? but its so very hard to type. concentrate, m. concentrato. concentrating. so. here goes: humpty dumpty is sitting on the fucking wall, people. get fucking over it.

now, i can't help but think that if i had glasses i know what i'd do. i'd drink beer with the boys knowing it's waiting for me to come home.

tell me - that made just as much sense as that beyonce chick's song does, did it not? hmm. that's what i thought too.

zing! revelsign made her first sasta.

relaxing hair should be allowed time for sleeping.

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE.

do you know that feeling? that weird feeling, like one of those people who'll wake up at the end of a hangover and look out at the ruins of the night that had just transpired? this blog post will be the ruins of my current little voyage, trip, voieee-ahhhhge as we may be so kind to call it, to the limits of outer fucking space.

now blue. then red maybe tinged it all! ting ting ting.

humpty dumpty my good friend. in your shiny whiteness, and neatly combed hair, i see an evocative snapshot of our generation. cold. confused, going around in circles. white. trying to find purity. crazy, rolling around roiling on the inside, but hard, smooth, perfect on the outside? sometimes we roll / let the crazy break through. some people spend their whole lives rolling / being crazy. Mr.egg and humanity's generation X, unite.

WOW. what generation are we in anyway? you remember reading vaguely about gen X people, a while ago. were we them? are we us? genX? genY? is. there. a. gen. Z?!!?

these are all things to ponder, people. this is truth speaking. no lies. i'm not blogging for any of you. there are no readers in mind. i don't give a rat's ass if no one but me reads this post, that's how i blogged. i wrote down pure, untempered thoughts. ting a ting me for that, if you want. but that's how it's goin' down. snap.

now that that business is over: let us proceed, Lord Denning MR. he who shall never be reincarnated after they get one o' those fancy little supreme courts in that country. don't worry. i'll still make you pea soup.

an ending, an ending.

i'm bored.

humpty dumpty sat on the wall eating a nice little brunch. he ignored all the naysayers, the disbelievers, the haggles, the critics who said - HE CAN'T SIT ON THE WALL WITHOUT FALLING! - and he sat. he sat and took out his egg sandwich (that's disturbing m, in your thoughts dreamy imagination thing humpty dumpty is a cannibal! smushy egg yolk, crumble, chew.) (wow, i used/am using round brackets instead of the little triangular dealies i usually go for) (wow, are three clauses in parentheses right next to each other allowed? what does it all mean? is it a revolution for english grammar? a sentence structure that no one has thought of before? a new possibility. when do we get to see that in this lifetime, folks? (girl sitting behind is singing. slip. dance floor. naked? ooh. no. hat.)) and he ate it like there was no tomorrow, folks. he was dignified. he brushed his mustache with his napkin and brushed the crumbs off his lap. he ignored the shouts of all those crazy people telling him to come down. their worry, their unecessary anxiety. when he was done, and only when he was done - he packed away his lunch box. readjusted his tie. and climbed steadily down the wall. reached the ground. patted his head. and walked off into the sunset.

so i guess what i'm saying is - the moral of this story / the point of this blog / the motto for YOUR life should be (shout it to the rooftops):

humpty dumpty is sitting on the wall people. get fucking over it. (or perhaps 'fucking get over it'? i don't know either way, your choice. make selection clear when filing purchase order.)

amen.

currently: clearly something is happening. quick! duck! a return of bananas and the dolphingium! no! you already said goodbye and thanks for all the fish! grr. i hate a dolphin that goes back on its word.

listening: a bit of something, fan-like, nail against keyboard. (mehhh says girl sitting in back.) well, there you go people.

life as i currently know it.

of pillow fights to avril lavigne, flailing legs and war-like screams.

not to mention truly dumb dumb charades and britney spears / guilty pleasure music marathons. mashed potatoes and almost taboo. participants shall remain unnamed to protect reputations all around. instead i dub thee as follows:

the monster Baby

simply put: the Legs flailing

the vaguely confused Screaming

the underservedly Unmolested video-ing

the vengeful Pacifist singing

all those who need to know know what i'm talking about. ;)

perhaps something more profound to say later when i'm not quite as happily well fed and drawing such a goddamn blank.

.

currently: well-fed and lazy; gently rumbling tummies and happy sighs.

listening: what i like about you - the romantics.

the sound of silence.

i hurt myself today / to see if i could still feel the pain.

a shout out to mr. johnny cash. you sure know how to throw those words together.


currently: lying in bed.
listening: the sound of the fan spinning over my head.

grrr.

[edit]

.

things that seriously piss me off: the internet, 'ciao.', dust, the WTO, hope, money, mustard yellow, frailty, politics, writer's block, human beings in fucking general. oh, and did i mention the inter-fucking-net?

.

currently: red satin, lace, raj bhala, and i have launched an all-out war against the WTO. die, die, die. there will be foosball and omelettes involved.

listening: go home, get stoned - hinder. excellent fuel for headbanging and evil plots.
