I am captive and captured in stills, recalled and rendered in sepia toned illusion. My skin is translucent and tangible only to those with clever eyes and a mangled perception. It is there, hovering above birthdays, anniversaries, doctor appointments, and due dates that you will find me, a constant reminder to offer best wishes and maintain schedule. It seems strange to consider that someone would be ticking off days in such a way, counting down to events that I will never attend.
I am usually inspired while I do my ticking, but that does not happen very often. It is rarely with me, and I often forget…tick, tick, tick.
I am absent, and days go by while I forget. But I am drawn out soon enough. The need to move among the living, shoulder to shoulder, pulls me from my daydream. I must be just in reach. Then I wander off for a coffee, and I am reminded again, my impulsive progression brought to a screeching halt by an unfamiliar voice. The sinister tone still rings my ears “Hey motherfucker you got anything real to say?” I never do. I will though, and I will smile when I say it. “Too bad you missed it prick.”
Now that I have had a good breather, stretched my legs, and fashioned myself a clever new suit, I will attempt to remember to tick off the days.
There are things that I have yet to say, ears I have yet to perk. Shall I scream?
p.s. strange days.

Wordslingers and the Phallic Tower, chapter two: the Bedside Drawer and the Ragdolly Riddler. ^_^
I decided not to post it here because it's more fun with the links, because it takes up a lot of space, and because this is really Mayo's venue.
But please at least take a look at the drawing that Toujours made. It's a beautiful and adorable drawing of the Ragdolly Riddler. (I did a sketch in there too, also of the Ragdolly Riddler, nowhere near as good.)
Anyway, there ya go!
Goodnight L, good luck on monday.
K, that was soooooooooo good. I love the part with me and bikey.
The pics are amazing, the one you drew is fantastic.
Bring on the anonslaught please.
finished reading it jules and it was fanbloodytastic.
bravo hun
Good evening everyone
Thank you so much, guys! And thank you for the comments on my blog, too. I'm glad you like it. ^_^
Oh, real quick, I want to totally shout out Frankles for his recent green panda hoodie. I see that panda in the mail at least once a month. Dude is a true animal rights activist, it's not just lip service with him.
Yay, Frankles!
Yes indeed, Chapter 2 is good.
No sequel slump here, my friends.

Hi BC!!!!!!!! Hello MissT, Amy, Fimble, Mayo, SS.......anyone else around!!!!!!!
How is everyone doing tonight/this morning?
Love & Hugs to all,

Wendy
MissT: The pictures of you and DG are wonderful!!! I especially like the one of you two with the mayo, lol! Thank you so much for them with all of us.
It looks as though you two ladies had a great night out!! No hangovers today, right? ;-)
Amy, thank you! I hope you don't mind I stole your "What the Jesus is this?" line. :D
Hi Wendy!!! How are you? Me? I am feeling jappy right now. I just got home a few minutes ago and it is freezing outside! But that's not what's making me happy. I got some emails from one of my favorite authors (L.J. Smith) and one of the questions I asked her in my email, she liked it so much so she decided to post it on her website, and it's really awesome ^__^
That's great BC! No wonder you're 'jappy' ;-)
It turned cold here again too. Wind chill in the low 20s.......
I'm freezing!!!!
It's just great Wendy. My mood was a bit sour earlier today, but the emails made me smile. What's cool is that earlier at the store, I went to go buy an ice cream from one of the ice cream machines, and the stupid machine fucked up and gave me another ice cream for free! Right now it's below zero and I was eating ice cream earlier he he
It's super cold indeed. Brrrr!!

That's what we folks in Louisiana call "lagniappe"!
I was supposed to go out tonight but decided to stay home - it's too darn cold for me!
That's what we folks in Louisiana call "lagniappe"!
"A little something extra!" :D
Haha! That is correct! RW learned well on her Halloween visits to New Orleans!
HELLO and How are you tonight RW?
I'm very well, Anon 616 :) Full of pasta and orange juice!
How are you?
I'm COLD RW, LOL! Thanks for asking!
Ohhh....PASTA, my favorite. Especially if it's drowning in Marinara Sauce!
How's the weekend going for ya?
Did you say below zero BC???
Definetly time to hibernate, if you ask me!
It's been another lazy weekend for me, which is just the way I like them! It's not too cold here yet, considering it's Canada in the middle of winter. I suspect February is going to be frosty, though :(
Up to anything exciting this weekend?

==========
Well, I was going to go out and hang out with 'the old gang' and the Hellraisers tonight; but decided to be a good, warm girl and stay home!
Southport Hall and The Dungeon will both be there next weekend ;-)
Tomorrow my niece is leaving to go to Washington DC for a week with some people from her school. I'm excited about that FOR her :D
How about you? Any exciting plans?
And you BC?
Well Wendy, I am not sure what I'm gonna do tomorrow, since it's going to be another cold and frosty day. I might stay at home and just watch some movies and read some books
Wendy, yep, I did say below zero. Amazing, isn't it? I'm just glad to be at home now. Hi RW!
How about you? Any exciting plans?
Nope. Unless you count laundry and grocery shopping as exciting ;)
Hiya BC :)
I've been playing around on a face transformer page. This is me as a Manga character:
Sailor Wreck
What book are reading now BC? Which of L.J. Smiths books do you recommend? I just finished The Herion Diaries and I'm looking for a new book to read. :)
My niece keeps trying to get me to read this TWILIGHT book of her's. She's read that book 3 times since summer, lol!
She now has a vampire obsession.
Maybe RW can give her some advice
;-)
hey guys, just popped in again to say goodnight. sweet dreams and all.
nighty night
xx
She now has a vampire obsession.
Maybe RW can give her some advice
;-)
;P
How old is your niece, and does she have an interest in vampire literature?
'Night, FS! Have a good one :)
I promise not to spank you in your sleep...
Nope. Unless you count laundry and grocery shopping as exciting ;)
=========
Hmmm.......well, I can't of any ways to make the laundry exciting; but grocery shopping.......
Well, does your store have bag boys???? ;-)
Hmmm.......well, I can't of any ways to make the laundry exciting; but grocery shopping.......
Well, does your store have bag boys???? ;-)
Unfortunately not. But they are open 24 hours, which is kinda exciting, I guess. I was going to do shopping in the wee hours tonight, for the novelty of it and to avoid line-ups. But... outside=cold inside=nice and warm
I'm staying inside!
Good night Fimble and sweet dreams to you, love!
RW: My niece will be 17 in April.
My sister did give her the complete "Vampire" series from Anne Rice for Christmas; but she hasn't started reading those yet.
She does love the TV series MoonLight! I must admit, I DO TOO, lol!
Kapu, not a problem! After all, you can really include me if you don't quote me once in awhile.
Besides, I frequently scream "What the JESUS is this?!?!".
I work retail..
-A
Anon 616, your niece might like Lost Souls by Poppy Z. Brite. Very different style than Anne Rice, but a big favourite of mine. Vampires and skeezy-ass rock dudes, what's not to love!
Re: Lost Souls
One of the characters is like a Gerard/Frank hybrid.
I like your Manga character RW!
Another thing my niece is obsessed with is Anime.....especially "Inuyasha"
"Vampires and skeezy-ass rock dudes, what's not to love!
=========
Heck, I might have to check that one out myself, BC!!!
Sounds right up her alley too!
Thanks!!!!
I know very little about Manga, Anon 616. It's after my time, I'm afraid.
Heck, I might have to check that one out myself, BC!!!
Sounds right up her alley too!
Thanks!!!!
Y'welcome :) I recommend it. Also good is the sequel, Drawing Blood, though it's not a vampire book, and most of the characters are different.
It's after my time too RW.
Thankfully, I have the niece and nephew to keep me informed of all this 'new' stuff, lol!
I'm sorry guys. I was answering emails, and checking my mail on myspace, blah blah blah. Did I hear someone say vampire literature? *ears are perked up in interest*
Goodnight and sweet dreams Fimble. Wendy, as for which books to recommend, if you like, you may want to check out Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. It's directed towards YA but the author doesn't dumb the book down. It's excellent literature and is currently one of my favorite books.
Lost Souls sounds like an interesting read :)
Okay, Poppy Z Brite has been added to my TO READ list AND to my 'birthday present for my niece' list!
Thank RW and BC!!!
Hi Amy! What's new with you?
No worries, Anon 616 :D
I'm heading off to bed now. Have a good night, everyone!
may want to check out Twilight by Stephenie Meyer.
========
Hehe, BC! That's the one my niece is obsessed with!!
She LOVES that book!
Good night RW and sweet dreams to you!
Have fun with the laundry and grocery shopping tomorrow ;-)
Anon616, not much. Just headed to bed.
Y'all won't see me until Tuesday, taking a business trip on Sunday. Foo.
-A
Amy: We shall miss you, love!
Even though it's a business trip, have fun!!! And, be careful too!
No problem Wendy. Goodnight and sweet dreams RW. Hi Amy. Wendy, Twilight is an excellent book. It wasn't on the New York Times Bestseller's List for nothing :)
There is also a sequel called new moon that is out, but personally, I don't recommend it, and the latest in the series is called eclipse. The 4th book in the series should be coming out sometime this fall.
Darling Mayonaise,
I'll be out of town for the next few days, so if you post a new blog by the time I get back, I hope there isn't too much of an Anonslaught while I'm gone. I love a good fight.
Must've been a warrior in my past life.
Hey, motherfucker. I don't care if you have anything real to SAY.
I care that you think of us enough to post here and even say ANYTHING that pertains to us as a whole.
Please don't scream though. Screaming denotes distress. Hollering, shouting or whopping it up can be equated with fun.
By the way, I think there will be another house party soon. Are you coming?
-Amyranth
And with that, I'm off to bed, and off to another sleepy, snowbound town.
Hey, Kapunua. You said I could write, well, I wrote something. It's on my Livejournal.
Nothing special, just, something.
Goodnight everyone, see you in a couple of days!
Goodnight Mayonaise! Goodnight SS!
-A
Do you watch the TV show Moonlight, BC?
I think you might like that one!
Ohhh.....and on the episode last night, they played one of my favorite 'current' songs.
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus' " Your Guardian Angel". I love that song *sigh*
Goodnight Amy. Sweet dreams, and stay safe on your trip. You say you love a good fight? Well, I'm happy to have you here then :)
Good night Amy!!!
Wendy, actually, no. Is the show any good? There's another vampire show on lifetime called Blood Ties. Have you ever watched it? I started watching it during the series premiere, but I always keep forgetting to watch the latest episodes.
Oh yeah, I do remember Blood Ties. I think I watched a couple of episodes of that one....
Is it still on BC?
I'm excited LOST is coming back next month! That's my favorite TV show!!!!
Yep, they're still playing it. It's on its second season now I believe.
Most of my favorite tv shows are now extinct :(
Most of my favorite tv shows are now extinct :(
==========
I know! Well, as long as LOST is on I'm a happy TV watcher ;-)
I'm having 'technical difficulties' computer wise tonight BC; so I think I shall be signing off.....
I'll talk to you later though and you have a great night!!!
The same goes for anyone else around and lurking ;-)
Love & Hugs,

Take care Wendy

mayo,
i've been thinking today about how busy our days can be, how filled with bustle and noise and rushing around in circles, and so i thought that tonight, instead of giving you my usual excessive ramble, i'd give you a nice quiet moment:
breathe in...
this moment
breathe out...
beautiful moment
breathe in...
this moment
breathe out...
holy moment
sleep well, mayo, and have delicious dreams.
: )
me too mayo i've had a busy day but perhaps the rain is easing and the sky is clearing.
I hope you're life reflects that too.
Sometimes it never rains but it pours!
Wishing adventure,pleasure, delight and love, to you and yours
much love

so catch you all later.
love to you all.
Good morning everyone up this early!
Mayo,
If you were talking about a calender, then i must sound really dumb....lol
Any way,
have to go to work.
hugs and kisses
PJ
Beautiful Blogvillians,Mayo, SS, and assorted anons .....
I'm still alive, just thought I'd let you know!
* collective groan from bloggers *
I'd like to thank everyone who's shown support by sending emails, comments, and general love my way.
I really appreciate it, and it DOES help.
I'm just still.... crap at conversing.
So I'll take my leave now.
*hugs for all*
xoxo cupcake
Hey Mayo
Hope your day is good.
Yeah, that's about it. Coffee hasn't kicked in so I got nothing else. Maybe later I'll think of something useful or funny to say to you. Then again, maybe not.
Hi all passing by, passing through, passed out.
Maaajjjor weekend catch up reading.
Hi there CC/Taz.
Good to read you again.
*hugs*
FS, Hope you are keeping safe with the tornado warnings. And who untied you?
Mustard, we can't be brave and bold everyday. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next. Just whenever it feels right you'll set that bird free.
Kass my lass,
You have fabulous wit and insight. I'm often nodding in agreement with what you perceive Mayo to be doing here.
Your suggested remedy for pain officially comes under the category of most unusual advice ever offered. You know everyone is now going to test that one out don't you =)
Kapunua,
Thoroughly enjoyed Chapter two. LOLed lots. I really liked the words appearing on RR's clothes, and the aim girls. RR's house, I snorted, seriously, when I saw that. Thank you for writing it.
TJ,
Nice rendering of underwear as outerwear. Hope the research wasn't too arduous.
Ergo,
Laughed at your cat pill post. So true - conniving tricky little critters.
MissT and DG's excellent night out,
Such nice guys from the band. Tingley moment time seeing BlogBelievers meet up in real life again.
RW,
So when the button came flying off was the guy 'startled - steady on' or 'startled - oh,yeah!'.
BC,
Congrats on the author acknowledgement. It must have been an interesting question.
Calendar theory anon,
Another good interpretation. I don't believe Mayo to be GW but it is interesting reading Mayo as seeing his life as having some similarities.
Did someone say slumber party?
You know we Kiwis and Aussies are in summer down here so we may be a little inappropriately and inadequately dressed.
*wipes brow and gets a nice long cold drink*
Hi elena!
*PP is an irrational superstitious idiot and doesn't like her previous post number*
*voodoos it away with another one*
Good morning/afternoon/evening Mayo, SS, Cupcake, FASC, PJ, friends & family, pets and anonymous(es)....congregation!
How are we all on this sweet, shivery Sunday? I hope everyone is keeping warm! Me, I'm trying!
Cupcake: It's always great to see you around! No groaning involved -except for maybe groans of joy and pleasure ;-)
Mayo's tick - tick - tick has me thinking about the passage of time.
How it passes so quickly. How we should learn to appreciate and try to derive joy in each moment we are given and how we should grant as joy as possible......
======
"Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived."
from the film "Star Trek: Generations
=======
Yes, I AM a TREKKIE, lol!!
I hope we all remember to 'take in' each precious moment today and have a very joyous day!!
Love & Hugs to all!
~Namaste~

Wendy
PS: Kass & Possum, you're really confusing my schedule these days *wink*
Speak of 'the devil' ;-)
There's that Possum and Elena too!
Hello to you both!!!!
I wish I could stick around and 'chat' with you both awhile; but I must run off for now.....
I hope your ladies are both well!
Hugs and Love!
Good morning Mayo.
Sunday morning sleep in again for you?
Good, that would be 'you' time.
By the way, all those ticks sound so monotonous and unhappy. Try getting a better rhythm going with some tocks. Loosen up a little and
draw some crazy faces or squiggles instead of those little regimental list markers.
Okay. Done for today.
See you 'round like a record.
My BlogBelieve Family,
I am only in for a minute, I have to go soon and pick up my parents, but I wanted to let you guys know that I appreciate the well-wishes for surgery tomorrow more than you will know.
This place has become more and more like a Family everyday, and it is just amazing to see.
There is so much love in these halls, and it is so good to see that being expressed freely. If you care about someone, you should never be afraid to tell them you love them, to let them know you appreciate them. So many are afraid to say the words. "What if I get hurt? What if they don't feel the same? What if I look foolish?"
Love is never wrong. Never foolish. It is something we all can use more of.
Remember, Its all about the love.
Mayo,
I hope you are doing well today, and finding your love and inner strength. Take the time to be thankful of all the people in your life that care about you and want what's best for you. Be yourself, and keep fighting. You are strong. You are loved.
SS,
Please take care of yourself, dear. You do so much for so many, and I think sometimes you forget to focus on yourself. Don't let anyone take you for granted. You are a sweet and kind person, and you are beautiful.
J. will be on tomorrow night, until then, take care of yourselves, my Family, and keep the faith.
Love. Hope. Faith.
L.
Bother. Missed seeing 616.
* yells unladylike after her*
Thanks for letting me quote you the other day 616!!!
For SS,
How's it hanging today? Head and hat still attached to the rest of you I hope. (MissT posted a rather interesting snowglobe image at 8.17pm.)
I hope you've been to see Kapunua's second chapter at her bloghome. Both she and TJ have posted some great pictures they have drawn of you as clickable links, and let's just add your home is rather interesting.
I saw an interesting young band called Enter Shikari from England the other day at BigDayOut. They're not everyones cup of tea as they are a strange mix of metal/trance/rock, completely doing their own sound. Onstage those kids were fantastic. You really hope that such young guys, that so obviously enjoy doing what they do, get noticed. They were way better than their video efforts suggest. The quality and energy of a band's live performance can not be beaten for showing a bands true talent. These kids had it in buckets and were charming and funny to boot.
Good grief. Trance music. Me. Who would have thought it would come to this?
Okay, have to away now.
Please take a peek at K's. I think you'll enjoy her description of your clothes and the anons arrivals.
Later dude.
PP
Could I type any s.l.o.w.e.r.?!?!
Op L!!
All the best for your surgery on Monday sweetie. It will be such a relief to have it over and done with.
I will be watching eagle eyed for updates from J.
*hugs and more hugs*
Love
PP
Mayo,
How are you? Comfortable and well, I hope. Me? I just woke up. Sleeping til 9 is totally sleeping late. Yay me! My breakfast consisted of some french toast stick things and a glass of sweet tea. Yeah, I still haven't made it to the grocery store. Must make that happen today. Wind chill be damned.
Why am I having this feeling that today is going to be one of those "what the fuck" days? You know the ones. The kind that leave you shaking and scratching your head. Questioning everything. Emotions are running on high and stomach is turning.
Now, what does all this mean? Fuck if I know yet.
Mayo, my wish for you today is that you able to communicate to everyone exactly how you are feeling and they completely understand.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. Off to restock my shelves.
9:47 AM, January 20, 2008
Mayonaise;
Whats up? I was going to start out by quoting Forrest Gump, but then I wouldn't be able to branch out from that. I remember last night while lying in bed, I was trying to think of something to say to you today. I remember something REALLY good came to my mind, but I forgot it! Really, what exactly was it? Gosh. I'm soo forgetful sometimes.
Anyways, anything new in your life Mr. Mayo-Man? Somedays I feel fucking crazy for talking to someone who calls themselves 'Mayo', especially since you probably never read the comment. Seriously, wouldn't you feel touched in the head if YOU were randomly talking to a "Mayonaise"? Well, I guess not since YOU are the Mayo that I am talking to. As you can probably guess, I have nothing to say really. But I'll think of something while I am at work today, then report back later, mmkay? =]
All my love;
- 007
<3
SS,
I never really address you, do I? You're always lurking in the shadows, and I love how you always know when you are 'needed'. Have you read Kapunua's story? I love it. The part where you came in is the part that I love the best.
I know nothing about you Shitsubou Shita, but that does not stop me from caring about you. Your undying support for everyone is what I love about you the most. If I could, I would hug you like there was no tomorrow. You and Mayonaise, both.
Anyways, SS, I hope that you are happy & healthy. Please remember to change your underwear everyday, okay? And remember to wash behind your ears.
All my love;
- 007
<3
hey guys.
i have seen this and thought i would share it wit you. its about MSI but i think you will laugh
Funny page about MSI
see you all later, bye bye
Hey SS
If you happen to pass through giggling just wanted to say hello.
I was in a store yesterday that had these strange snow globes. I picked one up with a strange little character inside (no I'm not implying your a strange little character) and I burst out laughing. Yeah, I got some strange looks from fellow shoppers.
Anyway, just wanted to share that pointless little story. Take care.
Yeah, I was imagining the guy in the snow globe with undies outside his pants!!
Morning all. FS I have to say your link made my day.
Hey SS
I just realized I could be imagining this totally wrong..
Tighty-whities or boxers?
I mean I do want to get the picture right in my head.
Hey Martha. How are you today?
Hello Elena I'm well how about yourself?
Sorry Martha I had to go break up a fight between daughters.
I am fine but wanting to pull my hair out right now.
Anyone here? Hellooooooooo?
Hello Elena.
A fight, you say? Ah, sounds like me and my sister. I hope you're well?
Hey CTV
Yes a fight. They fight all the time. This one was about clothes.
Other than that I'm fine. How are you?
Hello BlogPeople!
I don't normally post but Fimble Star I loved your "Funny page about MSI". And if you click on the MCR link the "Most accurate known picture of Gerard Way" almost made me wet myself!
I shall now go back to lurking
Sibling rivalry. Something I am all too familiar with.
I'm fine, just a bit chilly. A little slow right now, it seems. I'm not usually on this early.
Hello pants of peace.
FS, awesome page right there. I totally bookmarked it.
Well CTV it's a whole 12 degrees here. I am freezing! My house is over a hundred years old. Three floors and impossible to heat! Okay honestly I love the house but damn it's cold.
A hundred years old! Really? Wow! I'd love to see that one day.
We've got it pretty bad here in Canada too. 'Cause. Well, it's Canada. Whadda you expect? ;)
Anddd holy mother of god. Can I just say that I am freaking overjoyed to see that Bob is in Vietnam right now? I hope the poor thing's okay. His hair's grown so much, bloody hell. He still looks fabulous.
Oh hell yeah...Let's hear it for Bob!
I too hope he's all better. I swear the guys had a rough time.
As for my house just think of something out of a gothic novel complete with our own ghosts. Sometimes I think it would be cool to contact one of the Ghost Hunter shows but I'm afraid they might upset our ghosts and I don't want that to happen. I like sharing the house with them.
hi and a nice sundayafternoon/evening, how´s everyone? *hugs*
Good afternoon/evening everyone. How are you guys? Hi there pixie, how are you? *hugs*
I'm checking out that MSI page and it's totally making me laugh. Whoever made that Wiki page, you have my complete and undying devotion from now on :D XD
hi bc I´m good how are you? *hugs*
it´s definetely sooo funny, I´m reading the mcr-site at the mo... I don´t belong to any of the fangroups. am I an outsider now? *looooool*
oh well it´s getting more and more stupid in the article...
Hi pixie. I'm doing good, thank you for asking *hugs*
MSI=a bunch of hack mediocre losers with obviously no real talent whatsoever. ^___^
P.S. I can probably play the guitar better than they can. It doesn't take much to play bass. It only has four chords. I prefer six.
P.P.S. Pixie, the article may get stupid the more you read it, but it's really funny :)
I know you have to see it from the funny side, but in the end it´s just too much ^^ ;)
Pixie, I may have to agree. I can't believe that Jimmy Urine looks like that. What a idiot, but oh well. How was your weekend so far pixie?
I actually meant the mcr-page... I read through the msi page and from there to the mcr one *lol*
my weekend was pretty lazy, ok yesterday I repacked my stuff and today I just read and watched tv. well it´s 11:17pm now so my weekend is over soon ;) and yours?
hi guys!
i'm on a muti tasking catch up etc but just wanted to say hello and i'll be back in a little bit!!
hi faraway, how are you? busy? ;)
Hi faraway!!! Oops pixie, I thought you were talking about the MSI page. Ha ha sorry about that. My weekend so far is the same, although I went out yesterday and right now it's super cold to go anywhere today, so I'm staying in and watch movies.
I have some good news though that I haven't mentioned yesterday because I was super tired. A relative of mine told me that they are going to put a down payment for a car, and when they do I can make the monthly payments for it. It's really awesome (the car is going to be mine. Yay!)
I'm thinking of looking for an environmentally friendly car, but I haven't decided and it might take a while before I do :)
that sounds cool bc! I miss my old own car.... :( I need one when I´m back in germany I think. I was also thinking about an environmentally friendly car. a friend of mine also has one, I should ask her about it :)
good morning everyone!!
BC awesome about the car. It's hard to choose (but may I say Toyota Camry's are great)
HI Pixie Elena fimble CTV Martha pants and anyone else about
well It isn't raining here at my place which is nice, but there's a lot of flooding (well 2/3 of the state- 1 000 000 sguare km) and they have been evacuationg people from towns near us in low areas, we were drought 3 weeks ago!
And I will be going into our work shed which had about 8 inches of water through it, luckily it's all machinery like lathes and millers so no damage except for some job files but they should dry out, just gotta head over with the mop and broom and lift up some gear in case. Are we on anyones news? It usually only disasters and murders that get shown OS lol
Thanks pixie. You should ask her about the car, there's really a lot to choose from, especially if you're considering getting an environmentally friendly one. Hi there Ergo. Thanks. I was thinking that with the down payment, and the responsibilities it comes with taking care of the car and making payments, it may help me become a more responsible person, and I think it's a great thing.
I think I will start looking at some of the cars soon, but not right now, and with all of this, it helps me realize not to take my family for granted anymore. They have done so much for me, and I am started to appreciate that more.
It's the small things in life that's making me happy. Yesterday I got some emails from one of my favorite authors, and she is going to post my responses and questions on her website, because she liked them so much, and yeah, I was really happy about it :)
good morning ergo! nice to hear that it isn´t rianing down under at the mo ;) how are you? hope you´ll have a good start into the week :)
Ergo, that's good that it stopped raining. Maybe then you don't have to finish working on that boat ^_^
sorry guuys was catching up on emails and everything! hello ergo glad the rain has stopped!!

our flat looks like a total mess. my flatmate moves out next weekend, also he really got on my nerves sometimes, I realizued this evening while talking to him, that I really really gonna miss him :( he´s such a cutie and he always helped me when I had problems ....
Hi faraway!! How are you? As for the car thing, yeah, it seems I am going to get a new car soon, but on one condition: I have to meet up the monthly payments.
Can you say blackmail? Lol. Other than that, I shall get a car; maybe an environmentally friendly one. It will be a while until I start looking though.
hey sorry pixie you ok!! i am overlooking family cos i'm so stupidly busy with shit!
Faraway, nothing on the Vietnam gig yet. We'll probably not gonna hear anything for at least another day or so.
Pixie, it sounds like you maybe you are starting to like your flatmate...
"Pixie, it sounds like you maybe you are starting to like your flatmate..."
jep I like him but I don´t like like him... he´s gay ;)
^^Ah okay. So pixie, how do you feel about having a new flatmate? Are you excited?
ooh pixie! i've been there also. never mind honey!
right guys sorry to be boring but i have to love and leave you!!
catch you tomorrow.
love to all!
Hi Fasc
pixie I shared a house with a guy like that! We cooked seaperate meals and didn't really socialise together (well we talked and stuff but lived separately) and he drank heaps of coffee and I didn't at all but when he moved out I missed the smell so much i started drinking it!
And he left sweatshirt behind that i still wear (that was in 1990 lol)
You get used to people being about.
so I'm off to the gym and to flood clean-up (yay mud!) not sure when I'll be back so I'll catch up when I do
take care everyone!!
Faraway, nothing on the Vietnam gig yet. We'll probably not gonna hear anything for at least another day or so.
I hope to high heaven that G-Way did not tell the Vietnamese crowd to fuck themselves with glowsticks.
bye faraway take care *hugs*
and bye ergo, take care and have fun at the gym *hugs*
well hell yeah, I´m gonna miss that crazy finnish guy *laugh*

Why wouldn't he have?
Unless he has already moved on to "edgier" and "more hardcore" things to tell the audience to impress his New Crowd.
hi rw and kapunua , how are you?
I really hope he behaved or it was their first and last show in vietnam *laugh* ;)
I'm, meh. Hanging out with the fam, that's very cool. ^_^ But I just had the unfortunate experience of seeing myself on video at my cousin's house and so I will spend the rest of the week hating the way I look and wearing hats and glasses and having my hair down and trying not to talk. I'm funny that way.
Going to eat dinner, then I promised Jo-chan that later we would eat ice cream and watch Monty Python. She's been guiding me through Resident Evil 4. I keep getting killed by zombies with squids coming out of their heads.
Hey guys.
So we've got a really short review of the Vietnam concert for now. We'll hear a lot more tomorrow.
For now:
The show tonight was brilliant. I promise I will be back tomorrow with a full report and even more pics. To quickly recap it for you guys though:
- My Way Home Is Through You LIVE FOR THE FIRST FUCKING TIME EVER.
- KILL ALL YOUR FRIENDS!!!
- Desert Song.
- Bob Bryar For The Fucking Win.
- James Dewees!!!!
I'm hoping Gerard didn't make himself look like a tool this time. I'm really, really hoping. I don't want to be disappointed.
Why wouldn't he have?
Good point. I'm hoping, however, that good taste will win out. Eventually.
hi ctv how are you?
ok that short review sounds good or? we also got kill all your friends here in helsinki, it was awesome :)
Hi Pixie :) How's things?
everything ok in good old helLsinki rw ;) under zero degrees, so maybe we´ll get snow....
Hey CTV, RW. How are you guys?
Hiya BC :) How's Sunday been for you so far?
Hey guys. I'm fine, just about to leave.
I'll see you guys later.
Hi there K. Quick RE4 tip for you.
If you're killing those zombies with the "squids" popping out of their heads, throw the blue grenades at them. The grenades will kill them instantly. If you use the gun, you have to shoot directly at their heads and you must back away from them before one of their tentacles hits you.
Take care CTv. Hi RW. Sunday is going okay, but it's damn cold outside so I'm staying in. Right now I'm having dinner and watching Blade:Trinity. I might get a car too ^_^
bye ctv, take care!
Hello, just passing through.
This reminded me of the local pitcher.
already after 1am so time for me to go to bed, take care girls and mayo *hugs*
I might get a car too ^_^
Really??
G'night Pixie :)
Goodnight and sweet dreams pixie *hugs*
Hello redrum. RW, yep, I'm serious. This is the thing. My relative might put down a down payment for it, and then I will make the monthly payments. I have to say it's inspiring me to save up money but it might be blackmail in disguise lol. I'm thinking of getting an environmentally friendly car, but I won't look for anything just yet.
Redrum, ha ha that's funny!
That's exciting news, BC :) Have you ever ownded a car before?
Thanks RW. To answer your question: I never owned a car before actually. I have a older niece and her dad did the same thing: He added the down payment and right now she's paying the monthly payments and stuff, and that's the same thing we're gonna do.
I do my chores and then I
help pay the bills each month because some of my family are computer illiterate and well, I'm hoping car ownership will help me become more responsible as an adult.
I'm hoping it will turn out for the best.
Flash grenades or something, yeah!
So, if you're looking for a great car for the environment and if you also want to give the finger to the oil companies, the hybrids are still buggy and REALLY expensive. I've got a Hyundai Elantra. It gets 30-37 MPG, regular gas, and is a partial zero emissions vehicle. Also it's got a hugely high safety rating AND is under $17K. From what I gather, they run forever, too.
I used to own a car, BC, and I can advise paying a bit extra to get something reliable that will last you a while. Mine was a piece of junk :/ But I guess you get what you pay for.
K, flash grenades will definitely help. They're pretty much your best bet against those "squid" zombies, and they will help save you bullets in the long run. Be prepared. The levels and the monsters/zombies in the game are going to start getting a bit more harder. I recommend you keep your shotgun handy.
And oh, thanks for the car advice!
The Hyundai Elantra sounds like a pretty sweet deal so far :)
RW, that's something I want to look for. A car that can last for a long time and that has good car mileage and doesn't spill a lot of emissions onto the ozone.
That's something I am going to ask the car dealer when I start looking.
Have fun, everyone! I'm off to call my folks...
Take care RW. I am going to go make some layouts :)
Hey, can some of you do me a favor? I know this is a lot to ask but I'm really funny about stuff like this.
If SS comes around and I miss him, would anyone mind asking him if he's all right with me using the character he made up in my own story? From experience I know he's usually cool with that kind of thing, but I still always like to ask.
S(S)S, if that's a problem (and consider: two of us made a sketch of your character, too ^_^ ) please don't even hesitate to let me know. I can go back and change it, it's no problem. If you don't have time to answer I will take it as your tacit approval but if it bugs you out in any way, feel free to tell me.
Anyway, just in case I miss him, can anyone pass on that message? I've got Mayo's permission so that's cool, but, you know, I'm funny about permission.
Well guys, tonight is a Monty Python marathon. See you guys later! :D Oh, I'll see if I can get on chat later, too, if it's not too late. ^_^
No problem K. Take care
GW from the vietnam show. the sunglasses aren't the only thing that's back, so is the bandanna around the wrist.

Hi, Mayo, SS, and all of Mayoville!
The temperature is supposed to get down in the teens tonight and I'm developing the sniffles, so I've prepared myself a hot toddy. Just wanted to drop in and say, "Hi!"
Hello everyone! How are you all tonight?
"ba ba ba ba ba
ba ba ba ba ba
ba ba ba.....
I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
When all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knockin' at my brain.
Before I go insane
I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread:
"I think I love you!"
========
Dang it BC! I still can't get that darn song out of my head! LOL
Did I read correctly? You might be getting a new car? YIPPIE for you!
I am an absolute TOYOTA gal. Actually, my family is a Toyota family! They're very reliable cars!
I see I missed Pixie again :(
I suppose she's sound asleep by now. It is 2:35 in the morning there, isn't it?
Mya!!!!!!!!!! Hello!!!
Thanks for the picture anonymous!
Hi Wendy and Mya!! How are you guys?
Anon, concerning Gerard, I have a somewhat strong feeling that despite the the band's break, nothing has really changed.
I'm good BC, thanks! I think I ate to much pasta drowning in marinara sauce (that's all RW's fault for mentioning Pasta last night and giving me the CRAVING) ;-)
I think GW looks pretty good in that picture. Perhaps he's been eating a little pasta as well
:D
Wendy, ha ha! Yes, you heard right: a new car. I was actually considering going for a bmw, but I don't know what for. My brother will only abuse it and show it off to his friends. I may go for an environmentally friendly car or something. I haven't picked my options yet and it may be a while before I do.
Wendy, I was going to say that. I noticed that Gerard has gotten a bit chubby, which I love. Aww! ^_^
A BMW!!! LOL, I think I would be afraid to drive one of those anywhere. I would worry to much about it ;-)
Mya, if you're still around, I hope you feel better soon!

========
Yeah, I think he is def looking better than he had been!
When men get TOO, TOO thin I want to run up to them and give them a bag of cookies or donuts ;-)
Thankfully, my neighborhood is safe for me to drive one of those(But the area doesn't have enough streetlights, which doesn't make sense) but my older brother has a black Toyota that's really nice looking. I don't know the model, but I might consider getting one. Whatever car I might choose, I am going to go with a black or a red one. I think those colors look the nicest on cars. I think white blows, but that's just me. I don't care which car actually, as long as I can drive to concerts and it has good gas mileage and doesn't break down on me constantly and doesn't release alot of emissions to the air, then I'm good :)
Mya, are you sick? Get well soon!
Wendy, just looking at that picture of him, I want to pinch his cheeks. They're so pinchable, and I hate when men get too thin.
I usually want to stuff them with two pounds of donuts or spaghetti or a few sandwiches or something ^__^
If you plan to do any speeding, don't go with a red car!
Red cars are most easily spotted on the highway....
Of course, I'm sure you WON'T be doing any speeding, right???
Some video clips from Vietnam
Hmmm........I have to go back and look at the picture to see if I think the cheeks are pinchable.
Hang on ONE moment and I'll get back to you on that one! ;-)
Ha ha, of course not Wendy. I'm going with a black car then. ^_^
Okay.....the cheeks definetly appear to be pinchable, you are correct BC, lol!
Does Frank still have the facial hair? I like the 'scruffy' look!
Ohhh...videos now! Thank you anonymous!
Lord BN is at it already. A poll on "why Gerard isn't wearing his wedding ring"
Can't they let the guy have a private life?
Elena, are you serious? As much as alot of us didn't like what he was doing since PR, they seriously need to leave Gerard alone.
By the way, I forgot to say hi.
Wendy, aren't his cheeks just pinchable? Frank is growing a beard and seems to have gain some weight as well and...Gerard is growing some facial hair. I checked out some pics earlier.
I am going to be going back and forth guys. There's some layouts I'm working on for my myspace so I'll be "time traveling" from here and to there and stuff :)
Hi Elena! Good to see you, love!!!
How are you?
Anonymous: thank you again! I think they're sounding better too.
It would appear the break did his voice good.
BC: a black vehicle sounds good. Or a blue! I love blue ;-)

Oh my God! I think the future politicians of America will all come from BN. They already have the POLL thing down!
Hey BC and wendy
I'm fine thanks. Just trying to think warm thoughs. It's only 5 degrees right now.
I feel bad for him. I can't imagine what it must be like to live under a microscope like he does. Everything you say and do dissected.
Only 5 degrees? YIKES!
I'm freezing here at 26 degrees!
Sounds like the perfect night for hot chocolate Elena.
Did I read that you live in a beautiful old haunted house?
Can I come visit you and your ghosts? ;-)
Wendy, I think Gerard's voice would sound better if he'd stopped smoking. That shit is seriously not healthy for you, and I don't want to hear about him getting diagnosed with cancer later on in life :/
I hope he'll work on quitting. That goes for Frank too. Don't think I didn't see that picture of him holding a ciggy! ;D
Anyways, another color that I absolutely love is midnight blue. There's something really beautiful
about that color :)
we're at -12 celsius right now and possibly feeling like -20 or more with the wind chill. COLD!

Uh-oh! I can't tell anyone a thing about smoking because I'm a smoker. A VERY HEAVY smoker :/
I know it's bad for me; but, truth be told, I simply have no desire to quit....
Oh well, we all have our unhealthy vices, right?
Hi Elena. Is it true that you live in a beautiful haunted house? I have to say, it's hard to stay angry at him at times when too many fans try to dissect everything he does. I wonder how he handles it. I don't think I ever could.
Hi Magic Pie! You ladies are making me COLDER!!! Brrrr......
Hi there magic pie. Wendy, my unhealthy vice comes in the form of Starbucks mocha frappachinos. It rocks! :D
Evening girls,
New wheels eh,BC....that's great darlin'
I'm not quittin' either Wendy...love my rollies!
BC: Midnite blue is my second fav color; my first is Cerulean!

I'm not quittin' either Wendy...love my rollies!

Hi DG!!! How are you? Have you recovered from your night out with MissT? I LOVED the pictures!
Thank ya'll so much for thinking of us and sharing them!
Yeah, I think there are a few of us ladies here who smoke. Maybe we shouldn't have said anything....
We might be forced to go smoke out on the street now!
:P
Wendy, we think alike! Hello hello DG. Thanks. How are you?

I have never been to Starbucks BC
*blushes*
I'm not much of a coffee/frappachino/espresso drinker.
I'm a hot chocolate gal, as you may have noticed ;-)
Anon 616, I forgot to tell you last night: author Poppy Z. Brite was at one of the Anne Rice fan club costum eparties I went to, back in '98. Poppy is from New Orleans, by the way.
Ah, Wendy...Mayo doesn't mind!
I'm good, tired but good.
It was a great night, lots of fun and laughs....glad you enjoyed the pics!
How are you?
Good thanks, BC!
Nice to see you all chipper and excited.

Hi RW!!!
She's from New Orleans too? Heck, we spawn alot of Vampire writers here, don't we? Ha, I wonder why
;-)
DG: I'm doing good, thanks! I'm stuffed (from pasta) and cold.
I'm warming up now though. I just put on a third pair of socks and my snuggle slippers :)
Sorry I was off playing Rock Band
Yep, big old house with ghosts
Four ghosts to be exact
BC: They do say GREAT minds think alike ;-)
Wendy, hot chocolate is good too. I love it :)
Hi DG. Aww thanks! Hi there RW.
I'm warming up now though. I just put on a third pair of socks and my snuggle slippers :)
Well, snuggling's always good. Hope you warm up soon!

You aren't using one of those wicked ouija boards, are you Elena?
Those things scare the crap out of me ever since I had a very, very bad experience with one.
Of course, if I had followed the proper 'rules' - never use the board alone, seal all the windows and doors and such - I might not have had the bad experience....
I'm not good at following 'rules' sometimes ;-)
Well, I DID learn my lesson!
Wendy, indeed they do :)
Hi guys! :D
She's from New Orleans too? Heck, we spawn alot of Vampire writers here, don't we? Ha, I wonder why
;-)
Yep, she's from NOLA. She and her husband (he's a chef) live in a grand old house that they hare with a snake and 20 - yes, 20! - cats. They rescue strays & abused animals.
hare=share
Well, snuggling's always good. Hope you warm up soon!
=====
I wish I WERE snuggling, DG!
I just have the darn slippers
:/
Mayo, can I get an edit button for my birthday?
Yep, she's from NOLA. She and her husband (he's a chef) live in a grand old house that they hare with a snake and 20 - yes, 20! - cats. They rescue strays & abused animals.

Sounds like my kind of people, RW!
Well, except for the snake!
I wonder if my niece knows Poppy's from New Orleans? I'll have to mention that to her!
Wendy actually I won't allow a ouija board in the house.
I know many people don't believe in ghosts but well if they lived in my house they would change their tune.
