I think the hubby is actually getting me a laptop for Christmas, and you guys are the impetus! He gets tired of me wandering off all the time. Who says blogs can't change the world?

Original Punk J said...

K said,

And seeing as how he's a masseuse, he can rub off on Mayo?


YES. YOU MUST NOT KID ABOUT THESE THINGS. It's against the law.

Say, do you think Mayo COULD hire Frank to be our masseur? (see the tattooed comment below)

Although, SS might get jealous. So...

Thanks squeak squeak. I hope so too and my mom has told me before that if anything should happen to her, to not give up on my dreams and don't stop pursuing them, and right now I am taking steps to pursuing them because I want to be able to take care of them in case something happens.
But enough about me.


martha, I seen the dvd sets of super gals but never purchased them. Is the show any good?

Rahaha, toujours! Sure! Who doesn't love hanging out in the basement?

MissTottenham said...

BC, I hope everything goes well at the doctors, keep me informed.


I'm so sorry to hear about your mum, I hope she gets better soon. I know it's easy to say and hard to do but try not to worry yourself too much.

Star said...

Kapunua, yes, and I think the massage should take place on the magnificent marble island in the kitchen. That would be pretty, no?


It sure would. I came.

I just like saying that for shock value. SORRY MOM.

Original Punks said...

K, tell your mom she's got a great daughter. And she's got to be pretty cool, too. :)


My folks are really cool. ^_^ And my Mom is used to my vulgar jokes, too.

Op thank you. I'm not sure if this illness thing is weather related. My mom was born in Texas and she's used to the heat and we live in the midwest and sometimes it's like placing a polar bear and making it live in Arizona or florida or something lol

You're all flustered because you are thinking of the sheer beauty of the tatooed masseur sprawled on the grren marble island.

Amirite?


The image of a bottle of Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil just popped into my head.

TJ - If I re-do the basement.... well it'll be hardcore.

Literally.

P.S - Can someone else help find a masseuse, I'm not having any luck.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Soft pore corn well its about time.

Miss T thank you and I will let you know what will happen at the doctor's. Unfortunately my mom is getting old and she's becoming more susceptible to illnesses, but she is one strong woman I will tell you. Six kids and so much stress and she barely complains.
She's tough. I inherited my stubbornness directly from her ^__^

Amyranth said...

Star - We will be rubbing down a lot of meat with oil in that kitchen, so I suppose we could set up a massage table in there too.

I just got a pang of guilt and remorse about blathering on about Olive Oil if Mayo's not happy.

I will restrain myself.

Oh my sweet Lord, Star, you're gonna kill me, that's for sure.

But are you sure about the olive oil? I mean, VIRGIN, come on. And EXTRA virgin at that.

I'm thinking more along the lines of syrup. Sticky, yeah, but you can always lick that problem away. :D

YUM!

I have something nice on the back burner for you, Mayo, nau wale no. We all do. It got set back during this crazy and awful week, but I'll get back on it for you. I think we all will, in fact. I have a feeling we will. So hang with us a while yet ku'u hoapili, all right Ihekoa?

Goodnight to all the rest of you who're here, EP, BC, TJ, anyone else I've missed. Talk to you tomorrow. Hopefully without any shit-fan-hitting in the meantime.

You big ol' lovebug, you! I'm still so impressed with your outpouring of sympathy. Well, this is an "outpouring" for you, I guess, but it's still touching.

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be here reading and writing. Count on that. I give you my full support--unless the "shit" is something colossally stupid, that is. Somehow, though, I don't think it is.

Be jappy if you can, and thanks for the sweetness tonight. Your protoctive side is showing, you little dickens!

TJ I was praying for something to come to you to give you some help,
and some hope to see you through so i was so excited to see your post
Got your email too - thanks :)
great minds think alike!

Original Punk J said...

SS,

For once in our relationship, I'm afraid I've almost run out of words.

Put simply: I'M WORRIED ABOUT YOU. I miss you. We all miss you. I can only go on what I feel, that you're all right, only tucked away somewhere with your thoughts and emotions.

As far as what I feel, well, for some reason these ideas came to me tonight.

I don't know what's going through your head right now. But, if you're trying to make up your mind about something, even something that on the surface looks promising to you but not to anyone else, you owe it to yourself to pursue that thing. If you do not, you may wake up one day and realize you regret not going after it.

Life is too short to do what others expect of you. You must be true to yourself and your instincts. What I call "gut feelings". Too many times I relied on my head instead of my heart, or my "gut", and each time I did so, I now regret those logical decisions.

Granted, not everything can be given over to emotion solely. Logic plays a part in just about every decision we make. It's human nature. But we can also overthink ourselves, and that can sometimes lead to regret if not outright disaster.

Honey, whatever's troubling you, don't give up a chance at happiness just because the "method" seems impossible, crazy, or even unconventional.

I hope some of this babble of words can help you. Hell, I hope you get to SEE this babble of words. I don't even know if you're listening.

But if you are, give yourself a chance at happiness. You deserve it more than anyone else I've ever known.

Please take care of yourself. I would love to hear from you soon.

All my love--you are my babydoll.

J

toujours said...

to be honest, it was all the great comments -- like the one you wrote to me, ergo, which made me smile and cry all at once, i'll have you know! -- that made it possible for me to not lose my mind.

when i mentioned that to my ex today, he said it was a great relief to him, to know i had so many good people on my side. :)

ergoproxy said...

TJ I glad I could help.

I must admit my life is pretty good at the moment so I can spare a lot of comfort

sister midnite said...

Mayo, thank you for this post.
It's honest, and it's beautiful.
As much as I like to kid* you, you have a beautiful heart. Don't ever let that change.

Whatever tomorrow brings, we'll deal. Because we're a family now -- we're strong like that. The world can throw all the shit it wants to; love really does conquer all.

And that's what we've found here: love for each other, for SS, and for you. (You know by now I'm not exactly the sappy hearts-'n'-flowers type of gal, but I'm making an exception tonight in Trisky's honor.

Come what may (oh yeah!), we're here if you need us. As much as we like to kid* around, we've still got your back, babe.

G'night, everybody.
And good night, Trisky.
Give a nod to Minky for me.

toujours said...

ergo, i really like that idea, of having an abundance of comfort. (but in my head it translates into an image of a cornucopia filled with fluffy pillows. hmm.)

bed time for me now, so i'll say good night, and make my good nights to mayo, and actually turn off the computer. *gasp*

talk to you later, ergo!

ergoproxy said...

I though I would post something that this has remeinded me of for a long time.
re the identity of Mayo

it's a theorum of Physics, Quantum Physics in fact, called Schrodinger's Cat

here is an explaination:

Here's Schrödinger's (theoretical) experiment: We place a living cat into a steel chamber, along with a device containing a vial of hydrocyanic acid. There is, in the chamber, a very small amount of a radioactive substance. If even a single atom of the substance decays during the test period, a relay mechanism will trip a hammer, which will, in turn, break the vial and kill the cat. The observer cannot know whether or not an atom of the substance has decayed, and consequently, cannot know whether the vial has been broken, the hydrocyanic acid released, and the cat killed.

Since we cannot know, the cat is both dead and alive according to quantum law, in a superposition of states.

It is only when we break open the box and learn the condition of the cat that the superposition is lost, and the cat becomes one or the other (dead or alive).

This situation is sometimes called quantum indeterminacy or the observer's paradox:
the observation or measurement itself affects an outcome, so that the outcome as such does not exist unless the measurement is made.

(That is, there is no single outcome unless it is observed.)


In short, not knowing who mayo is allows him to exist in a state of unknown, able to be anything/ anyone.

only in observing, will his state be fixed, and the outcome becomes unchangeable.

I quite like the opportunity for mayo to be anyone,
But that is our paradox.

(sorry if I confused anyone)

ergoproxy said...

goodnight TJ

a plethora of fluffy pillow is heading virtually your way.

toujours said...

mayo,

i was re-reading tonight's title, trying to figure out the missing word. "loss"? "grief"? whatever it was, that you stepped aside is so telling about the true state of your heart. i hope that, whatever it is you have for us tomorrow, whatever it is that you put on hold, you are as kind with yourself as you were tonight.

sometimes, it's easy to wonder what kind of help a bunch of people typing words on a website can really truly be, but i can assure you, the help that comes in that fashion can be just as strengthening as a hug from a loved one.

they helped me. and if there's anything you need help with, we can help you, too. we can shore up the timbers of your spirit.

do you have something difficult to say? tell us. it will be alright. we might dither (*grin*), but we're strong, too.

if only you could know how much you've come to mean to us.

to me.

that will never be lost, no matter what happens with this blog. there's a place in my heart for you now, and a place for everyone i've met here.

i didn't know my name would be so apt when i chose it.

good night, mayo. sleep well, sleep long, sleep restfully.

All kidding/sarcasm aside:
That was indeed a beautiful gesture, Mayo.

Kapunua: I'm so, so sorry for your loss. You gave Trisky the greatest gift of all.....
You loved her enough to let her go.... *humongous hugs*

This one is for you and Trisky:

"I'M HERE"
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep.

I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down to me.

I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.
I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "it's me."

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.

It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew ...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning
and say "goodnight, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.

I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out ... then come home to be with me.

Mayo, what you’ve done for Kapunua was really sweet. Thank you very much.

"p.s. it can hit the fan tomorrow"


I have to admit I’m a bit worried about this, but I guess that’s what you need to do…
Anyway, today is “tomorrow”. I’ll wait for your decision.
Love to you as always

Everybody,have a great day!
See you later!

You have no idea how how cool this is. I woke up this morning and pulled this up and I just about freaked. I never expected that and I know K. didn't. You must like hugs and kisses from the princess.

Kapunua,
It was so sad to read about your dog, my heart is with you.

Mayo,
You get a brownie point, and a big hug.

You do surprise me at every turn, but you know, if you do not turn the fan on, the shit will be just on the fan, not everyone else.

Are you sure you want to hit that button?

If you do, we are all ears, or eyes that is!

sdock10 said...

Mayo,

How are you? Hmm, your title and you p.s. is a teensy weensy bit troubling for me, but I'm a worrier like that so pay me little mind if all is well. Me? I'm alright aside from my usual sinus problems and early morning grogginess. I should do my best today to buckle down and work hard. Why? I don't know. Maybe...just to keep folks guessing about me.

What an amazing gesture, this post..thank you. That was possibly the most thoughtful thing you could have done. Sorry, I wasn't around, but blogger was kicking my ass around a lot and I was doing a whole lot of sitting and not much posting.

Setting aside your own what? Loss, problems? I don't want you to ever feel like you have to do that here, Mayo. Hey, if this place can handle mine, hers, and theirs, it can also handle yours. Let us be here for you too. Okay?

Now, the p.s....It can hit the fan tomorrow? Dude, in the blink of a fucking eye it can. Only thing you can hope for is a good heads up before it does. Gives you a chance to run for cover.

Or....you stand there, you let the shit fly, you probably get soaked with shit, you wait for it to settle, and you grab a mop, some good cleaning supplies maybe a shovel or two, and you start to clean up the beautiful mess that was made. I'm guessing here that your messes are a lot like mine and you probably helped create this fantastic fan-hitting frenzy. Feel me?

You know which option I hope you'll choose. It can't smell all that bad or be all that deep.

You might have a few people who are little pissed off that they ended up with some shit on them, but if you help them get off, I'm sure they'll even help you clean up.

...I'm pretty handy dandy with a shovel, ya know?


Love to YOU Always,

Anonymous said...

Kapunua

So sorry to hear your news,

for you....

From time to time, people tell me,
"lighten up, it's just a dog,"
or, "that's a lot of money for just a dog."

They don't understand the distance traveled,the time spent, or the costs involved for
"just a dog."

Some of my proudest moments have come about with
"just a dog."

Many hours have passed and my only company was
"just a dog,"
but I did not once feel slighted.

Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by
"just a dog,"
and in those days of darkness,
the gentle touch of "just a dog"
gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.

If you, too, think it's "just a dog,"
then you will probably understand phases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise."

"Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure unbridled joy.

"Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person.

Because of "just a dog" I will rise early, take long walks and look longingly to the future.

So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past and the pure joy of the moment.

"Just a dog" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day.

I hope that someday they can understand thatit's not
"just a dog"
but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a man."

So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog."
just smile, because ..
they "just don't understand."




love
m.


P.S rest in peace.

Hi PP! Hi Cupcake!

My Mama probably did tell me but I was probably too busy not listening. O_O

Well, gotta go work for a bit. Yuck.

Hope ya'll have a wonderful day!!!!

XOXO,
S&V20

Pickled Possum said...

Hmmm, funny how this time of day is always the drop post-and-run- part of Mayo's blog.

*drops post and runs off*

Anonymous said...

sorry if this is late

but SS' subline is 'Dominic'

Vivienne said...

PP, the wicker man is very scary.... sad too, but not as bad as the descent, it actually made me scream!

Vivienne said...

Hi s&v *hugs*

Pickled Possum said...

*skitters to a stop*

S&Vsaid;

No, you weren't not listening. It was just Parental Safety Talk Static.

Hope your day isn't as long as the other day, S&V20. Have a good one.

*resumes running off*

JocelynHolly said...

Good morning all;

Just popping in before heading off to school.

First, m, those are great lyrics, and I am very sure that Kapunua, will appreciate them. I've missed you dear.

Second, Mayo, you didn't show up last night after posting this. You didn't post your comments like you normally did. Why is that?

Anyways, I don't have much to say right now. I hope everyone has an amazing day.

All my love;
- 007

Pickled Possum said...

Hi anon.

Thanks for coming by.
SS posted Dominic in memory of MissT's dearly loved and departed cousin when MissT was going through a bad patch the other day.

The location was removed at least over an hour ago.

*waves at SS if still lingering, but most likely to be found back reading*

Vivienne said...

Come back PP! *runs after*

Pickled Possum said...

*oof*

Where did you come from Cupcake?

I am so not looking for the Wickerman or The Descent ever. I'm still getting over vampire stories and the Amityville Horror from years ago. Heck even Rocky Horror messes with me.

Morning Paperheart.
You have an amazing day too, sweetie.

Vivienne said...

Not a horror fan PP? I am! I'm never scared really.... except for the descent, I actually screamed!.... IT WAS AWESOME! *sighs*

Pickled Possum said...

*tentatively dips toe in horror genre*

Horror + Vivid Imagination = Freaked Possum.

*PP pushing her luck as horror fan CC screamed watching*
So... what is The Descent about?

Vivienne said...

Girls. cave, trapped, mutant creatures, blood and guts....death....

But it's rather well done. Not just cheap gore.

Pickled Possum said...

Oh.


Nice.


I asked o_O

I'm a cheap thrill. Badly faked gore even gets me, let alone it looking realistic.

Why does it always have to be somewhere dark?

*quietly thinks about The History Boys instead*

Vivienne said...

Oh the history boys, i haven't seen that yet, how is it?

Pickled Possum said...

While I remember, don't forget to visit Ergoproxy at http://noneventmass.blogspot.com.

Ergo is making a global world tour of people who visit here. She's inviting all, including mayo, SS, bloggers and anons to name the closest town or region to where you live and list somewhere essential to visit in your area.

Anonymous said...

Prime example as to why one shouldn't turn in for the night at an early hour.

I don't know what to say, honestly.
Mayo, you're kinda like a super-dude. You're becoming less about you and more about us. I think we're on our way to finding "balance."

Of course it could hit the fan tomorrow (today). Anything could happen. Elena's story is the perfect example. You can't be scared to live and to go on about your daily routine. If shit happens, shit happens.

There are forces greater than ourselves.

Just make sure you've said the things you need to say to the people you need to say them to.

But, just a question.

Will we be going do too when said shit hits said fan?

Pickled Possum said...

The History Boys is great CC.

It's a reminder that Richard Griffiths has an acting life outside of Uncle Vernon. They used the original theatre actors for the film cast.

Not scary though.

Pickled Possum said...

Morning mustard.

*checks Sdock isn't still tied up to MIB*

Mayo has changed hasn't he.
It feels a bit like tick, tick, boom here today.

Vivienne said...

Sounds cool....

Vivienne said...

I'm watching sleepless in Seattle now! XD

hi mustard!

Anonymous said...

Mayo,

Shit hitting fans.....red for danger.....what the feck?

(Whose fans?)

You are such a sweetie with a good heart, so I'll implore you again 'Please don't do anything shitty!'

Catch you later, guys!

*must not get caught on t'internet in works time....an alarm has started ringing somewhere in the head offices*

Pickled Possum said...

Sleepless in Seattle?

That is scary.

What fan?


Fan?


Maybe not the spinner, but the eyes. The glazed over eyes. And the lighters.

Surely not.

*sniffs* well I like it!

Just pulling your toes CC.You are a gothgirl with many surprising facets to you.

Meg Ryan was on a roll with all those feel good movies back then.

Kate and Leopold, more recently. *soppy sigh*

Vivienne said...

Well.... it's late here...

Kap, *hugs* take care lovely, my sympathies.

Mayo, Don't get all cryptic again, it would make me kamikaze!

xoxoxo goodnight all

sdock10 said...

Sh(it) doesn't scare me...I'm so used to it...living it, making it up, throwing it, cleaning it up, being chin deep in it, saying it, fucking it up...I could go on and on and on.

Pickled Possum said...

Night CC. I'm off too.

*not thinking of caves or mutant creatures or girls or blood or gore - bother, I'm done for*

elena said...

Morning Mayo
No late night stupid rambling from me last night. I'm sure you didn't miss it.
Today? Well it's as shitty as last night. Ice everywhere. Internet at home is hit and miss. I made it to the book store against my husbands wishes. He said "are in insane?" I wanted to answer "what you just noticed?" but I didn't. It wouldn't have mattered anyway. There is no on out today. I'm glad I don't want to deal with people. I don't want to deal with anything. I'm here warm and dry and surrounded by books. I'm content.
I figured out why I cried last night. People kept saying that I was brave about my decision concerning the girls. I'm not brave. I never have been. Hiding is what I do best. I sent them to school for one reason. I don't want them to ever be like me. I'm a coward who simply gets by each day. Nothings ever gonna change. I want so much more for them.
So I'll set here alone and wait. Somethings coming I can feel it. How will I handle it? Same way I always handle things. I'll hide my true feeling. People around me will think it's all good. Shit, I should have been an actress.

AndieBomb said...

hi girls!

Yesterday my friends dragged me to this horror vampire movie and I was totally terrified.
Then I saw Mayo's tribute, and got all teary.

Kapu, I'm so sorry. I know you are going thru some deep shit. Just hang in there, sister. We all are with you!

sweet dreams PP and cupcake!

Mayo, you are truly unique, man.

pd. PH, I'm so jealous you got to see Alexisonfire live! nevermind your friend's hug....

Anonymous said...

Thanks, Andie.

My Mom came by with the rug cleaner and I decided to vacuum the rug before going out. Now we are going Xmas shopping.

Guys, mom says "hey." ^_^

I don't think this means anything at all, but why's there such a large void of nothing between Trisky's picture and the P.S.?


He's not done that before, and it's unusually large.

Outside of my mind again...going back in.

Hi Elena!

You're not alone, you got us!

Mustard, probably just to separate the two thoughts. That's pretty cool.

Mom left but we are just meeting up to go out shopping. i'll tell her you said hi Sdock! My Mom likes you.

See you guys later, hang in there, okay?

Smoke said...

Oh yeah, Hi Kapunua's Mom!!!!

Ha, did Sdock tell ya'll that our mother went behind our backs and bought The Black Parade? I just about fainted. It was the funniest thing. She said she wanted to know what all the hoop-lah was about.

^_^

AndieBomb said...

hi mustard!

bye K! have a nice shopping :D

hi S&V! your mom sounds pretty cool!

btw, don't you love our new library?
Amy, you totally rock my powerpuff girl socks!

Good evening everyone!

Did I miss much? I've had my best friend visiting last week and I've spent the last two days in bed (bloody flu!)

Kapunua, I'm so sorry. Trisky was really beautiful... Mayo, thank you for this blog entry. You're sweet.

I'm leaving now. See you later, darlings!

MIB i just commented on DM that when i saw the latest post this morning i only saw the pic i didn't think there was anything else cos of the large gap and i panicked that it was already all over and he had suspended comments. and then when i scrolled down and saw the comments i then saw the ps and panicked again!! a lose lose situation!!!
i think the reason he left such a big gap is because i don't think he wanted to ruin the impact of the pic by having his words interrupting it if you know what i mean, so the pic and the memory wasn't tainted in anyway.
don't know about the size of the print though??

hello everyone !

sister midnite said...

Hi evveybody!

Amyranth, the Mayo Mansion is awesome! I'll be lurking in the library, or waiting in the staircases to catch some poor unsuspecting wanderer with the beauty that is...

No shit yet, but I brought my umbrella just in case...

The Power of the Dog

There is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
And when we are certain of sorrow in store,
Why do we always arrange for more?
Brothers and sisters, I bid you beware
Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.

Buy a pup and your money will buy
Love unflinching that cannot lie--
Perfect passion and worship fed
By a kick in the ribs or a pat on the head.
Nevertheless it is hardly fair
To risk your heart to a dog to tear.

When the fourteen years which Nature permits
Are closing in asthma, or tumour, or fits,
And the vet's unspoken prescription runs
To lethal chambers or loaded guns,
Then you will find--it's your own affair--
But ... you've given your heart to a dog to tear.


When the body that lived at your single will,
With its whimper of welcome, is stilled (how still!)
When the spirit that answered your every mood
Is gone--wherever it goes--for good,
You will discover how much you care,
And will give your heart to a dog to tear.


We've sorrow enough in the natural way,
When it comes to burying Christian clay.
Our loves are not given, but only lent,
At compound interest of cent per cent.
Though it is not always the case, I believe,
That the longer we've kept 'em, the more do we grieve:
For, when debts are payable, right or wrong,
A short-term loan is as bad as a long--
So why in--Heaven (before we are there)
Should we give our hearts to a dog to tear?


Rudyard Kipling

Anonymous said...

K - Did you see this from earlier

'Kapunua

So sorry to hear your news,

for you....

From time to time, people tell me,
"lighten up, it's just a dog,"
or, "that's a lot of money for just a dog."

They don't understand the distance traveled,the time spent, or the costs involved for
"just a dog."

Some of my proudest moments have come about with
"just a dog."

Many hours have passed and my only company was
"just a dog,"
but I did not once feel slighted.

Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by
"just a dog,"
and in those days of darkness,
the gentle touch of "just a dog"
gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.

If you, too, think it's "just a dog,"
then you will probably understand phases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise."

"Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure unbridled joy.

"Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person.

Because of "just a dog" I will rise early, take long walks and look longingly to the future.

So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past and the pure joy of the moment.

"Just a dog" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day.

I hope that someday they can understand thatit's not
"just a dog"
but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a man."

So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog."
just smile, because ..
they "just don't understand."




love
m.


P.S rest in peace.

Hey, does that song make you want to kill yourself, or go jump in front of a train, or maybe make you want to take a long walk off of the shortest pier you can find?

*often wonders why Gerard chose that song*

Amyranth said...

SV and SisM, I love it, but I really do think it needs more....

HEY MAYO? How about 20 extra guest bedrooms?

Also, you'll notice there's no fans in the house. No fans = no shit to bring home.

sister midnite said...

Amyranth, while you're asking Mayo if additions can be made...

Can I borrow one of the closets?
Just for my boots, and a badger or two, nothin' fancy.

I promise to make the closet smell all perfumey-girly. ^_^

Yes. As well as many, many other things I need not mention here.

"*often wonders why Gerard chose that song*"
Shock value? Either that or just to see if he can start a celebrity fued with Rihanna.

Some visit here for Mayo, others for you. (There is your happy thought for the day.)
Why do you make me come back?

Sometimes I think if MCR ever ends, and Gerard's comics fail miserably, he'll produce his own Sounds Of The Tambourine.

I often like to imagine what it would sound like on record, and how the concerts would play out.

I had the pleasure of meeting Fimble Star a few nights ago. You must not know her or you would be aware of the fact that she is truly beautiful. This is not an effort to educate you, as much that seems to be needed. This is merely a comment, from a man, who would gladly defend and befriend her any day. (Even while at work.)

Haha this made me laugh :)

"Who won Best Band of 2007? Will it be My Chemical Romance or will it be Lostprophets? Who won Best Unsigned Band? Who was voted Sexiest Male of 2007? You voted in your hundreds of thousands, and the long-awaited results of the Kerrang! Readers' Poll 2007 hits selves tomorrow.

However, there's one slightly odd result that the judges had to put their collective foot down on. It seems that the majority of you out there in K! Land nominated My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way and 30 Seconds To Mars vocalist Jared Leto for the much coveted Sexiest Female Of 2007 gong!

As pretty as Mr Way and Mr Leto may be, and as much as they're not adverse to a bit of make-up, unfortunately, we had to disqualify them.

So who actually did you vote as your Sexiest Female Of 2007 then?

All of these questions and more will be answered in tomorrow's magazine"
