Any Way The Wind Blows
Titanium Rhapsody is right up the alley of all you Mega Man fans out there. Much better than anything I could ever do in Flash.
Stupid fucking program.
First The Scream. Then The Death.
Final movie list for tomorrow. Nice mix.
Bingo (*shiver*)
American Werewolf in London
Buffy: Halloween (2.6)
Poltergeist
Buffy: Fear, Itself (4.4)
Carrie
Maybe I'll bring over my crazy trailer DVDs, and mix it up a bit between the movies. I think MF would dig the insanity of those Something Weird trailers. And the old Hammer horror trailers are fun too.
It's Dead, And I Don't Know Why
Quick little note to HB if she's reading this. I tried e-mailing you about our policy manual question, and it went all "Transit/Delivery Failure" on me. So. If you are reading this, our policy makes no reference to a person only get half their vacation time if they worked half a year. It says when you leave, you get a check for all unused time.
Had the MRI today. Boring and annoying the MRI. But the KAJUNK KAJUNK of the machine becomes quite hypnotic afer awhile. So, you fall into a trance, which is rudely interrupted when they stick your arm full of radiation or whatever it is they inject into you.
Halloween tomorrow! Woo.
And now the question is raised, because I tend to talk without thinking, if NP thought I was serious when I said I wanted to date one of the girls she knows. I wouldn't be against it, but I'm just SO incredibly bad at the dating thing. We'll see. We'll see.
It's A MovieFest!
Halloween is random movie funness this year. Since it was MF's idea, she's in complete control of the movies. She wanted to watch some specific movies, like Poltergeist, and maybe the first Elm Street movie. After that, we weren't sure. So, I just gave her a list of the movies I had on hand, and told her to pick some, and we'd throw the names in the hat, and just watch whatever was picked.
What do we got going in there you ask?
American Werewolf In London
Beetlejuice
Gremlins
Nightmare Before Christmas
Young Frankenstein
Wrong Turn
Shining
Poltergeist
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Ring
Ringu
May
Blair Witch Project
28 Days Later
Poltergeist 2
Poltergeist 3
Wicker Man
I may throw in Frighteners for good measure. But I think we got a good slew of movies. I have a short I think that will set the mood, too. A creepy circus short called Bingo. The memories of it still give me nightmares.
Pop Song '89
Radio Free Satan
Gotta love it. They're putting on a radio version of House of 1K Corpses. Gotta love it.
Pull The Plug
JANET STERLING SILVER DESIGN
That's where I picked up my cufflinks. Her stuff is super rad. Give it a go.
Well, They Said I Was Impossible
What bugs me most about my health, and what ultimately is the biggest problem, is that I end up depressed that I am no longer as strong as I once was. Inside, I'm still the guy who lives to try new things. Outside, I can't do that. I was always the one people depended on, and now I'm the one who has to depend on people.
Last night, I had to leave work early because of this whole fiasco with my brain. I didn't want to leave work. But, I wasn't going to get into an argument over AH over the state of my health. She's concerned and worried and wants me to stay home. And I hate being unreliable and some crippled guy who has to lay down because he can't do much else. And really, if it's one thing I've learned, I'm not going to be winning an argument with AH. I don't know what kind of weird voodoo argument powers she has, but she ALWAYS wins. I think she's a robot. Which makes the pregnancy thing even more amazing.
Here I Am. Here I Am.
Why do I think people care about this? I bought me some cufflinks. They were on sale, and I'll hopefully get them before the big Lion King musical to do.
The Sounds Of Winds Drown The Screams
.Red.Pen.Design. is no longer coming soon. It is done. It is here. Much work over the weekend finished it up. Now I just need to get the name out there for some jobs.
The Muscle Twitches, Then Is Still
Talk about a long weekend. I feel like a warmed-over serving of hell. And it's all because I never remember that I can no longer handle being up until 3 in the morning, and starting all over again at 9. Maybe one day I'll remember this, and I'll put my health over hanging out with friends. But until then, I crawl from my bed and collapse in my computer chair.
I've put in a couple applications for jobs over the weekend. None of them librarian-type things. I don't know if I could drag myself back in to a library, at least around here, because I don't think I could handle the fact that I want to change things, and the people in charge are interested in keeping the status quo.
But that raised the inevitable question, just what do I want to do? I'd be willing to move somewhere if the perfect job came out, but I have one thing keeping me from doing that. I'd miss my friends too much. Granted, I never see them now, we've all gotten busy lives, whether that be pregnancy, new jobs, or the general unwillingness to leave the house. But they are my friends, and seeing as how I'm no social butterfly, I'd have an incredibly hard time making new ones.
So, we'll see.
Over the weekend, MF called up and did one of the coolest, nicest friend things that I've ever had done. She offered me a cane from her family that her grandmother owned. She wanted me to have it if I wanted it, and I just went, "Wha? Really?" So cool. So nice. Made me realize that the world doesn't always suck. Just on most days.
Talked a bit with AH over the ol' e-mail about the current state of my job, and the hate that flows through me like wine. We've decided that the current mood shift towards me in my department is that I no longer work the false-face mojo, and am willing to be the dissenting voice. I'm willing to try and make change.
And, not that it was a new idea, but there's always been a jealousy that stemmed from the fact that I never really considered them my friends. They are coworkers. And hanging out with HB, AH, SS, and KW outside of work, therefore cementing them AS friends only further angered them. And that's cool. At least now I know how it is.
XM Radio's, Special X, is nothing but Halloween programming ALL week. BEST idea ever.
