Rush.

I am expended. I have given my soul to you and, without question, you deserve it. I am rewarded by my investment and I know I get more out of it than you. Regardless, at the end of the day, I know its worth.

I am reminded that not so long ago I was so afraid of death that I taunted it, begged it to take me on. For a little while, I allowed its insidious grip to hold my soul. I was seduced by chance and by choice.

Temptation will always tug at my better judgment. I have been successful at averting my attention from ruinous behaviors toward the seemingly benign. Still, I question whether I have just shifted gears rather than changed lanes.

Perhaps I will again fall prey to deaths seductive whisper and allow myself to be captured by the romance of self destruction. It is wise to consider that I tempt fate. The alternative is blind supposition.

For now I am anchored to the rocky bottom. I will drift, but I will not be carried out to sea.


p.s. it takes hours to come down and the fall may lead to my imperfection.

BTW, hi and bye SC! Don't see you around too often, and when I do read you you've been gone for hours. Hope you're doing well! Take care.

P.S. I also sleep on my side

'course, i could go ecto at any minute, too.

i wonder....

do you suppose mayo's appearance today had anything to do with this? like, his aura, which is normally only at the beginning of the thread, cleared away the intererence and allowed me to stick around...?

ya think?

it's possible, right?

i mean, we've got unicorns and talking drawers and geese all over the place...

*wide-eyed with new-theory buzz*

Original Punk J said...

Dear Mayo,

So I hear you dropped in today to give reassurances on your welfare. That was really "thoughty" of you, and I'm proud of you for thinking of those who were worried.

Not that I don't worry about you, b/c I do. But this post didn't give me a bad vibe, not like some of the others have done in the past. It sounded very encouraging to me, as it did to L, and to Paperheartxx and Ergo.

Our weakest times are when we're exhausted, spent beyond rational thought. L and I have a rule we go by: Never make decisions about really important things when you're tired or angry. And it's true, those are always decisions we regret.

You are doing a wonderful job at staying away from your vices, the extremely damaging ones. I congratulate and applaud you, my brother. *crowd noises in background* See, I'm doing the Wave. :)

Keep doing what you're doing, stay strong, talk to your friends/family, tell yourself, "I'm better than my demons, I'm smarter, I'm stronger."

You are a beautiful person, with a good heart and kind soul. Remember that when things get tough. I love you, too, you crazy motherfucker.

J

P.S. Sorry about busting some of your pillows, and that thing in the den. We'll get those replaced ASAP. Thanks for letting us wreck the place.

oh good, i worked up an appetite up there on the wall.

what'd you order?

toujours said...

good night, soulconnector -- it was good quacking with you. :)

Original Punk J said...

Dearest SS,

You really missed a lot of fun tonight; I'll bet pillow fights are right up your alley!

And you know, you still haven't picked out a room. The logical choice would be number 2, since Mayo's room is number 1, but you may have other things in mind.

I found myself thinking of you today, but this time it was because I had some cake crumbs, and...well...you know about those...;)

All of those, uh, thoughts aside, I found myself smiling a lot today. Different visions spurred those smiles, true, but they all made me exceedingly jappy.

May you have a jappy day as well, along with a jappy afternoon and jappy night. I'll send you my jappy thoughts, and maybe you'll send me yours. Jappy all around!

Ok, I think it's time for me to go, I've used "jappy" so much it's got to be wrong on so many levels.

Have some fun, baby, wherever you are. Do something that makes you laugh, even if other people look at you like you're a lunatic. Life's too short not to do what makes you feel good, I know you understand that.

Until the next time...

I love you, babydoll.

My heart to yours, always.

J

Not sure, but if you are speaking to all your posters.
Then I welcome your gift and will not take it lightly.
I want to continue learning and live completely.

My issue:
I dream beyond the everyday tasks, seeking depth.
I think...then live
but then life is passing quickly, while I am dreaming
about what I want.

From what you have written, you appear
to live...then think.

So, here I am...finally wanting something from you.
Your ability to take action, despite the personal cost.
It is what I seek and ask for daily.

My friends here;please accept my limited time and abilities. For the life of me, I cannot write down my everyday activities
(laugh if you please), but I blank and cannot think what to type.

I do love reading your adventures, though.

love to go around

TJ being corporeal takes it out of you eh?
No wonder you've been all over like a mad thing today!
It's been so much fun.

"Dead" is a brilliant song - listening to TBP)

You take care TJ and have a great day tomorrow.Hope you are still corporeal tomorrow!

good night you guys. :)

it's definitely been a good night already for me. ♥

ergoproxy said...

mayo I hope you had a lovely day.

I did, kids here began their school year, all new books and uniforms and excitement.
Do you rememeber what it was like?
I hope they all keep the same wonder through their school years, but I know realistically for some it will be hard.

But regardless I hope you can look back fondly now. The years softening the edges, allowing you to see things that helped make you the man you are today, that allow you to grow and learn . Not repeating mistakes of yours or others.

I'm so glad you said you were in a strong place, that is where I want you to be. Able to see a life ahead of you that could be everything you hope for!

Wishing laughter, growth, delight and love, to you and yours
much love EP xx

toujours said...

*still sitting on the couch*

*draws knees up to chest and looks up at the portrait above the fireplace*

hey mayo,

i almost can't believe that i'm still here! i swear i was ecto this morning.

well, whatever magic has occurred to open your place to me again, i am most grateful for it. i don't want to leave.

maybe i won't. maybe i'll just stay here on the couch. you wouldn't mind, would you?

well, anyway, i was so very pleased to discover you had stopped by today. your message settled my mind and i thank you for that. it's maybe too easy to worry about you -- i can go into hand-wringing mode at the drop of a hat. *grin*

that's what brought me here, after all, so i suppose it's a difficult habit to break. i'll work on it -- more trust, less worry.

actually, that sounds like a good plan for real life too. hmm.

ok then, i'm just going to curl up here on your couch and go to sleep. maybe i'll still be here in the morning, and maybe i'll be ectoplasmic. i hope no one sits on me if the latter is the case.

sleep well, mayo.

Morning FASC - Bring it on!

Especially seeing as I was half-way up the M4 for yesterday's so counted myself out.

I'm back at work now and I had a very strange phonecall - I wouldn't give this one lady what she wanted (and didn't qualify for) so she demanded my name so she could write up a character-assasination on her Facebook page. Honestly, if you're going to defame somebody, don't tell them you're going to do it before you ask for their personal details. Anyhoo, it certainly was a ray of sunshine in my otherwise grey day!

Please pass to Mayo:


Mayo,

Hey, how are you this morning? I hope you are well. Remember the cold that I was fighting off yesterday? Well, it has jumped on me and is holding me in its nasty little hands. Translated...that means I feel like shit. But my theory is that it could always be worse tomorrow, so I will try and stick it out at work today.

Mayo, I just wanted to wish you a day full of good health and happiness. May you walk outside and take in everything that surrounds you...the beauty, the ugliness, the reality...and embrace it for what it is. Today is special and completely unique from yesterday or tomorrow, so live it that way.

Love to YOU Always,
S

p.s. Slowly and purposely.




To the Faithful Heart/She Wolf Anon:

Thank you for your words. They always mean so much to me. You made me smile first thing this morning. How special is that?

Mayo,

I hope you noticed when you popped in, how far down the post you had to go to leave yours.

Shows how many people care about you.

Sure most of the time it's just chatter or what not, but you have to notice some give advice, some just wish you well.

Remember each and everyone that is here is hoping you will come in and just set and talk with us, yet you just drop us a line and then you are gone.

We know you are busy, and just that one line, gives us hope that you are OK and doing better.

You do peek in once in a while, how else would you know how worried we are about you.

So thanks Mayo, we see your caring nature, just one more glimpse of who you really are.

Maybe one day we will see all of you, till then, one post at a time will have to do, and is truly appreciated.



I hope everyone here is doing well, and i send all my love till i can stop and chat.


love to all

Happy Birthday for yesterday Soul Connector,

Happy Birthday to Anima for today.

*Showers the birthday girls with freaky little sausage dog shaped balloons and confetti*

Seriously, someone has to point out what public holiday or celebration occurs 9 months earlier in the Northern Hemisphere, because judging by the fact there are another five or six birthdays in the next two weeks, something back then induces a heck of a lot of parental hanky panky.

PJ!!
Good to see you.
Long time no snog.
*snog*


Mayo,

No snog, but thanks for clarifying earlier today.
Get more sleep, and don't be tempted again.

*throws the remains of a well battered pillow at Mayo's head with an accompanying instruction to use it!*

SS,

Hope you're doing something interesting and new today because you are starting to spend way too much time observing geese.

People are going to start whispering about you and your anorak behaviour soon, you know.


Elena, CTV, Mustard,
Nice singing!

It has finally sunk in... this post I mean. I have to say, I find it... brave. Yes, brave, it's hard to say these things, hard to open up, some find it harder than others.
I hope you're doing well, as always.

You're precious and I love and miss each of you.

I'm still a bit... well all over the place really.

I turn 18 this year... not long now!... scary to think I'll be allowed to legally drink.

Unfortunately there's been a bit of that around on occasion, Siobhan, but then we've always managed to regroup and move on so far. Miracle Whip, the SS Anon, various nefarious vulture attacks - all those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain.

I used to get frustrated but I tend to let that stuff wash over me now - real life is irritating enough as it is. If it really riles you: log off, stick a record on, dance like a loon, suck the Nitrous Oxide from a spent can of squirty cream and just savour the moment. Then come back with fresh eyes and maybe you'll be able to put a more positive spin on things?

oh and happy birthday Anima and anyone else who is celebrating a b-day today!

I wish I had more time now to figure out what all the huff is about right now here?

Vivienne said...

Well I don't have a bloody clue what's going on, but that could be due to my absence/absence of brain.

How is everyone?

capture this void said...

Cupcake, I'm well. I hope you are too?

Anima, before you leave, Kapunua left you a message over at DM.

She says "hau'oli la hanau!" :)

Kassiopeia said...

Siobhan doesn't seem very happy with something here, but beyond that I don't know.

Sorry.

Kass xx

Vivienne said...

Bye anima hun! xoxo

Hi and bye lovely Magic Pie! XD

Hi CTV, how are you?

Kassiopeia said...

I'll have my say
My star will shine
Cos you see me I got my Magic Pie!

CTV & Cupcake just get "Hello"s, sorry!

Are we all OK today?

Kass xx

JocelynHolly said...

Hello guys. Just popping in before I go to see the devil. =]
(aka. Doctor dude)

Anima, HAPPY MOTHER FUCKING BIRTHDAY!!<3

I love you sweetie. It's funny, you sure as hell don't look older to me!

ANNNNNNND happy birthday to Soul Connector!<3

*sprinkles fairy dust of eternal youth on SC and ANIMA!*

I'm off for now, I will return and we can all have buckets of fun!

Love you all dearly!<3

Vivienne said...

Oh hi Kass, sweetie!

And CTV, you answered my question, and then I asked it again... I should write a book 'ways to look like a dumbass'. lol
I'm glad you're well hun.

Vivienne said...

P<3!!!!

Good luck with the devil! :)

capture this void said...

1111 comments. Neat.

Cupcake, I noticed that too! Haha :P
*tight hug*

Vivienne said...

hehe thanks CTV!

*returns tight hug, holding on just long enough to make it creepy*

XD

Vivienne said...

Damn it all, now I am sleepy!

Sleep gets in the way of important things, like thinking and writing and obsessing over every tiny minute detail.

Oh well...

Goodnight CTV, goodnight blog. :)

Respectful? Yeah, okay. Asking thousands of girls to simulate an orgasm for you. Really respectful, Gerard. Ace job.

Christ. He doesn't fucking get it. I cannot believe he's still saying this.

Goodnight Cupcake. Take care!

Hello all. Stepped out of the shadows to say......

Mayo glad you are coping, must say you had quite a few people here worried. Hope things improve.

I'm excited b/c one of my fan girl dreams from the 80's is coming true tomorrow when I get to meet DURAN DURAN......Hope no one smells of ointment...LOL

Wish everyone well, I love reading you all.....should try to comment more often , but eeh.

Now back to the halls of lurkerdom

Kassiopeia said...

CTV,

I prefer this bit "We're the direct opposite of a f**king boyband. For one thing, we've spent our whole lives being looked at as unattractive people"

Yes Gerard, because all those teenage girls who waited 18 hours for you in the freezing cold outside Forbidden Planet were totally into your mind!!

Kass xx

capture this void said...

I know, right?

I love how when he was asked about the 2007 MTV Europe Music Awards he made up some bullshit excuse about not fitting in with celebrities.

'Cause it's so much easier to just make up something off the top of your head, isn't it?

If anything, Gerard would undoubtedly fit in with the celebrity lifestyle. Just another rock star. What a fucking shame.

Kass, can I just say once more that I am seriously proud of you for getting your thoughts about MCR and MSI published? Well done.

I hope he got the message.

farawaysoclose said...

oh god!

he just comes across arrogant and full of it in that interview!!

its like he has decided that he is responsible for fuck all now!

i dunno!

hi guys!

is siobhan ok??

Kassiopeia said...

Aww CTV thanks,

I do love our G-Way, really I do - the music rocks and the original ethos totally wins too - but Lordie he does come up with some crap on occasion.

Like I said in the K! letter, the reason I wrote it was because I wanted to express that criticism is not always born out of petty teenage jealousy - the message is being lost, and I strongly suspect Gerard would now step over a razorblade-suicide to get to a ciagrette machine.

I have been invited to an MSI gig by one of my BN buddies and I'm tempted to go and meet up with her as I'm sure it would make for an 'interesting' night; plus if I catapault a satsuma in a sock at JU it'll hurt, but won't bruise.

Then again, I'm an adult; the last time I was genuinely shocked and offended by my entertainment was Brasseye, 19th February 1997, whilst Mötley Crüe can see my tits anytime.

Kass xx

Anonymous said...

Well, at least he had enough you know whats to actually admit his responsibility stopped there.


Doesn't make it right, Gerard.


Oh, and respectful?

Far fucking from it.

mayo doesn't mess around when it comes to coffee, it seems.

i can take out 20.

ok, back to the job boards.

honest.
i swear.

Anonymous said...

OMG, TJ.

That was hilarious!

I can take on 15. I think it's cause I'm not much bigger than some five year olds.

O_O

anima said...

19 for me! Thanks TJ!

*goes back to working....

Anonymous said...

haha! tj! i got 20 too. i am reasonably tall though princess so that'll be why!!

thanks anon. theres your first part to the interview there tj that anon posted. its not much though.

*dashes back in, carrying first page of article*

*gives anonymous a peck on the cheek*

thanks! tinypic takes forever to load on my computer, but i got it.

Being different is fun and it's a gift in a lot of ways.

i'm glad there's someone out there saying things like this. it's the way i always felt all throughout high school, and it made a big differnce in how i felt about myself to have this attitude.

or, as paperheartxx would say:

RAWR!




*heehee*

*wonders if she's abusing her corporeal commenting privelages*

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Hello all

Let me guess GW did another interview where he was speaking out of his ass. Do I even want to even bother with looking at this one.

Happy late Birthday to SC and Happy Birthday to Anima.

Anyway CTV if you are here please email me.

Anonymous said...

Thank Martha!

Quick question, when did Mayo add this above Mustard's quote? "Character Advocacy"

I just noticed it.

ANIMA!!!

Gerard: "I might be vulgar at times, but I'm always going to be respectful of people's race, creed, colour, sexual orientation, and gender, but that's where my responsibility ends".
-------------------------------------

Bitch please. What a surprise that you admitted something truthful for once.

I don't call telling female fans to stimulate orgasms for him anywhere near respectful.

What a bullshitter.

Anonymous said...

P.S. I am not going to bother wasting my time reading that interview. Just another one where he blows more smoke up his ass.

And if anyone thinks he's okay, it's obvious that he's not. He's back to wearing those shades again.


I have a feeling that the fans are the ones who are pissing him off, and in return, he is saying all of that shit to piss them off. Maybe that is just me?

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Anima you are welcome.

I don't remember when he added that but its been there a while.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Hello BC and S$V

Martha Smith-Jones said...

In what way BC do you think the fans are pissing him off?

capture this void said...

Anima, it has been there since he added the quote. You probably just didn't notice until today :)

Anonymous said...

Helllooo MJ. In what way do I think the fans are pissing him off?

How about....the lack of privacy?
I am not excusing his behavior, but if that was the case, it makes sense to me as to why he blows smoke out of his ass, but I don't know. He's responsible for every little shit word that comes out of his mouth :/

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Hello CTV

Somehow I don't think a lack of privacy is the problem
He is the one that started putting the stuff about Lynz out there.

Anyway compared to other famous people he has privacy. A whole lot of it.

I think that he is just jaded now. The music has lost it new and shiny appeal for him.

I think he maybe dissatisfied with his life.
He has fame and fortune but he still feels empty.

Anonymous said...

MJ, it's possible, but I'm at a point where I don't want to discuss it anymore. It will only turn my smile into a pissed off frown at the end.

farawaysoclose said...

hello guys!!

he got the marriage plug in too!so thats his job done really!!

sorry i'm disappointed and fucked off with that interview.

we all ok though???

BC,MJ,CTV, S&V,TJ???

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Alright

Martha Smith-Jones said...

I'm fine FASC how about you?

I sometimes wonder if his handlers are the ones telling him what to say. I know they do it to a lot of other famous people.

capture this void said...

MJ, BC, FASC, and Anima. I hope we're all doing well.

farawaysoclose said...

yes i'm fine thanks!!


i just don't imagine gway doing anything he doesn't want to do. i imagine him to be pretty stubborn.

i find it hard to even refer him as gerard now. its gway for me or fuck i feel like calling him mr way, thats how much i think its all changed you know??!!

Anonymous said...

Faraway, he's still bitching about his marriage?! My older brothers are married, but they don't have to talk about it 24/7. I think Gerard feels insecure if he has to keep mentioning it in every fucking interview.

Hey CTV, Faraway. How are you guys?
MJ, as far as the interviews go, anything is possible.

Anonymous said...

Faraway, if his behavior keeps up, it's better to just call him dick head. The man is in his thirties and he still acts like a fucking kid. He hasn't learn anything has he?

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Yes I think he is a pretty stubborn guy as well. But in the world of entertainment people aren't always as free as we like to think they are.


If the record company or who ever feels that certain things are having a negative affect I'm sure they will flex their muscle at them.

Anonymous said...

MJ:

Sucks to be him then.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

I wouldn't go as far as to say it sucks. But it was his own actions that brought it on if I'm right.

farawaysoclose said...

haha BC!!

he just mentioned that at the european music awards they were a bit uncomfortable cos they felt like they didn't fit in?? and he said he just wanted to be spending time with his wife.

sorry but the constant mentioning of it annoys me. i have no fucking interest.

i want to be inspired you know like i used to be!!!

not that he owes me that at all but i wish he hadn't started off so fucking inspiring cos you only end up feeling let down when he can't be arsed to inspire anymore you know. if he'd acted like a tool from the beginning i would have still loved the music but would have thought he was a tool which is fine. but you just end up feeling a bit let down and you end up feeling a bit of a mug for being suckered you know!!

makes me mad!

Anonymous said...

Exactly. But eh, I don't want to talk about it anymore. Usually when this happens, my mood sours :/

Anonymous said...

Faraway, I know how you feel. Every time he mentions his marriage, I'd be like "Why don't you shut the fuck up already?"

I get sick and tired of hearing about it. That dude is not happy if he has to keep bragging about it all the time. Like I said, I bet he's insecure.


I miss the old Gerard. Sighs.

farawaysoclose said...

ok i've had my rant!!

i don't normally rant at him. only on a few occassions. and that was one of them!!

so what else is going on??

Anonymous said...

you don't like hearing about his marriage because it forces you to understand he does not love you and he never will love you.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

Sorry About still talking about this BC but...

So Now all of a sudden he doesn't fit in with the other celebrity's at the award show.

What about the scream awards on Spike or the American MTV award show they were on.

Come on now give us some credit here. We all aren't those naive people who believe everything that comes out of a celebrity's mouth.

And if he wants to spend time with his wife he could have just not shown up. Let the other guys take over. He could say he needed to rest his voice or something.

Anonymous said...

I'm done with my ranting as well, but I have the urge to punch him, and then stomp on those fucking sunglasses. I wouldn't be surprised if he was wearing them in the interview anon posted earlier.

But anyways, the blog is pretty quiet right now. How are you doing faraway?

Anonymous said...

Anon @ 3:20

Actually, no. I just get tired of him bitching about it. Enough is enough.

Anonymous said...

MJ, to be honest, I never watched the MTV awards or the Spike awards. Everyone knows how I feel about MTV.And whenever My Chem makes TV appearances, I usually don't watch them anymore.

When you start to lose faith in them, your interest in them begins to waver, and then sooner or later, you stop giving a shit about their music. At least that's how I feel sometimes.

No anon that is not the case. No one here thinks that Gw is in love with them. And if you think that that is the only reason for people to be annoyed with it, Than you have a lot of growing up to do.



Maybe you are a child so you have never had an adult relationship. but from my own experiences and from watching people around me. When you go on about it that much something isn't right.

Martha Smith-Jones said...

BC back when the Helena video was up for an award.

Oh no, then MJ, I never saw the awards around the time Helena was released. I stopped watching MTV about eight or nine years ago. Everyone knows MTV sucks anyways.
MCR is not worth watching that shitty channel anymore.
