My heart is a vacuum
and in it a prickly pear.
It is nothing that I swallowed,
it was you who put it there.
In absence of sunlight
it grows and bares flesh
while spines follow limbs
to a fine found filament
of sugar frosted fingers
for my grip almost spent.
It purges heat and a punch
then I swallow it back,
that prickly pear
perhaps, I did put it there.
p.s. it really wasn't as grand as I thought it would be.

(PSST. BC, did I ever say it was bad? ;D )
Take care!

J(uicey) are you going to bed?
:(
Sleep well my lovely sister and don't let the parasitic anons get to you!
Sorry sugarplum. I didn't know we were starting a new page already, but here's some extra smooches and hugs for comfort *smothers Wendy with MORE sloppy kisses and hugs*
"It" was just asking for a "peak" wasn't it, sweetcheeks! ;)
-------------------------------------
Seriously, I think it was! And I must say he looks sexy when his long hair is covered in sweat. Meow ;)
Okay, I think I'll stop now. My pervertedness is coming out in full force tonight.
I didn't know avocados were toxic to dogs, good thing they are so expensive I never have any around.
Mayo,
Are you feeling better today? I hope you are, I don't like to see you suffering. Take care of yourself, and take some time to relax, to enjoy your own company, and to shut your mind off for a while.
You deserve a rest from being you, Mayo. We all do, every once in a while.
love, peace, happ8iness, harmony

Wendy: painting? Mmm-hmmm. Is THAT what you young people call it today, then? ;) Baby Sparkle is quite well tonight. She's all covered up snuggy warm in her bed. She said for me to tell you, "Baa BAAAAA Baaa Babaaaa. Baa BAAAAA baa!" ("Good NIGHT Aunt Wendy! I love you!")
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
O_O
I was PAINTING, honestly, I WAS!
Please give this message to my little Sparkle:
"Baaaaaa BAAAAA BaaabaabaaBAAAA
BA Baaa Baaaaaa BAAA"
Part of it translates to: I love you too! ;)
Sweet dreams, J!!!!!
BC, you've piqued my curiosity, who is the drummer you are 'peeking' at?
J, don't let those fuckers get to you , or L. You are way above that shit. Life is precious.
Goodnight and sweet dreams to both you and L.
Goodnight J :) Maybe tomorrow will pass by without any vicious attacks around here.
Fang Bang, I didn't know that, and apparently, chocolate is dangerous to dogs as well from what I read a while back.
Well, this drummer I was talking about is one of the members of this metal band called Devildriver, and the lead singer is the former vocalist for Coal Chamber. Drummer's name is John.
I don't know. All of a sudden I just started developing an attractiveness for long-haired dudes.
"Coming out full force"?
You had a few donuts handy, didn't you BC?
;)
FangBang: I like avocados; but I can't stand guacamole! Go figure.
Are you going to CRUE FEST this summer???? BC says I'm the only one here going to Crue Fest and I just refuse to believe that!
Elena: How did your car make it through the hail storm last night?
No damage, I hope!
Mayo
Well today was much less stressful. That said I’m sitting here thinking how wrong is it that I’m thinking that it was a really boring day? Shouldn’t I be grateful that no major catastrophes befell me? Well, yeah if I was a smart woman I would feel like that. Sad thing is I must not be very smart cause hey, I hate boring days. That’s not to say I want each day to mimic a sad country and western song. I really don’t want to lose my dog every day but still…Oh yeah, did you hear Jake came home? You do know who Jake is, right? Yeah, Mayo I’m quizzing you. Holy hell, I am so annoying sometimes. You really don’t have to know who Jake is, Mayo. I promise you’re not gonna be given a test and graded on this goodnight. So now I’m laughing thinking about that idea. A test given on the ramblings of Elena. That’s just out there.
So feeling any better today? Wait there’s a problem with that question. I don’t know for sure that you felt bad yesterday. That’s just me guessing. Okay so let’s see how’s this? So Mayo if you had to compare yesterday to today how would it stack up? Okay that’s better. Except that the whole question is pointless cause there will be no answer. I know this and yet almost every night I ask you questions. Why do I do that? I suppose it’s cause it seems polite. I mean really I usually launch into telling you about my day so it only seems nice that I ask you about yours. Does that make sense? Shit, I just asked you another question. Just ignore the questions. Hell for that matter ignore me. I’m really just rattling with no purpose tonight. I think a lot of it is cause I’m sorta feeling alone. TJ’s departure has left me down in the dumps. She attended another concert tonight and I folded laundry. Let’s see….go to concert or fold laundry…which sounds better? Yeah, that’s an easy question. Oh well, such is life. Some must hit the road and be free to go where the wind takes them and some must do laundry. Shit, why do I have to be the laundry girl? Okay that’s way too complex to answer tonight. You know a few days ago Ergo said something to me that still echo’s in my brain. She said, “The road will wait, Elena.” Will it? Will the road still call to me when I’m free to follow? It calls to me now and I turn a deaf ear. The lure is always there yet I know I can’t leave this place. Not now anyway, not now. I always have this thought in my head that I will get in the car one day and just keep driving. I’ll drive until I can go no further but what I can’t ever see is where I’ll be when I stop. That is the part that worries me. Maybe I’ll just know when I get there. Maybe it will just seem right. Maybe I should just stop thinking about it. Yeah, that’s probably what I should do. I’m such a ridiculous woman sometimes. I feel bad that I’m not content with the here and now. But I guess dreaming about the open road somehow helps me get through the boring days. Yeah, it really does.
Night Mayo
Elena (grounded yet still reaching)
time for me to return vm's computer to her, i'm afraid. she wants to go to bed? i've heard of that phenomenon. i thought it was an urban myth.
i'm not sure what we're doing tomorrow, but i'm quite sure there will be....pizzaz involved.
and i'm getting back on the bus tomorrow afternoon, and heading down to kentucky, to actually, finally, visit my folks. i'm hoping to get back on the road for the memphis show (op's, i'll be emailing you!), and then, with any luck and the the favor of the fates, i'll be making a straight run of the remaining shows through to madison sq. gardens.
i don't know how half of them are going to happen, and the other half are still semi-foggy logistically, but so far, so good, so i'm not worried. *grin*
mayo, tonight's show was...exuberant. it really did feed me. it was a perfect combination of magic circle and observation. standing with me at the stairs was a girl from near us in the pit who had had to leave before the show even started. her friend was still down there -- but she and i rocked out together at the stairs, and that made it fun, too. (she asked for my lj afterwards. *grin*)
but while i was caught up in it and able to sing and jump and wave my hands around, as ordered, i also was able to really see the band, really hear their performance, and that was amazing. those guys are always just the shiniest thing for miles around, you know? well, for me, anyway.
i was just standing back there, all decked out in my now-usual concert outfit (elena performed a re-vamp on my former look), complete with beloved cute hat (which i had to take off in the pit because it was so damnned hot), singing along when moved to ("kill all your friends", especially the end, really gets me pumped up these days), grinning like an idiot at gerard's stories, actually watching the entire band instead of glimpsing one or two behind heads and raised hands...
it was a perfect night.
i am stuffed full with this night.
and i'm going to go to sleep, and dream of it, i know it. the music is still in my head, the smiles i saw on all their faces (yes, dammit, i watched gerard smiling more than the others, but still, they were all so happy and bright.) still fresh in my mind's eye.
it's the perfect tonic to take with me to my folks. i'm pouring it all out into my journal tonight, i must, lest one detail is forgotten. it will sit there in those pages in it's raw form, and i will be able to dip into it for my lj and more, and when i need it, a single page of reminiscence will bolster me.
i have a life. blog and music, and not one that my staid family would understand, but it's the nourishment of my soul.
(and yes, that was over-the-top, but since when have i ever been subtle? i was unrepentantly warped by poetry and barbara cartland at a tender age. *grin*)
i'm in cleveland right now. i saw lake erie today. last month, tis was unthought of, utterly outside my imaginings. last week, it was only a possibility.
but i'm here.
and i don't realy know where i'm going next.
good thing there's a travel agent out there helping me out. *grin*
and when it's done? will i be able to come in off the road? my life will be bare, a garden cleared for winter, waiting the spring planting. i've only got the faintest idea of what's going to go there, and i'm not looking at it closely right now.
there will be time enough later.
right now, it's the road, and the music. it's the silliness onstage, and the vibrance cycling through in a feedback loop, and strangers opening their doors to me and making themselves my friends.
i am chock full.
i just hope gerard didn't really try to eat that candy bar. *eesh* it's a good candy bar, but damn, nothing chocolate can survive the pit and still be considered a food product.
sorry, gerard. *contrite*
and good night, mayo-sama. sweet dreams.
Goodnight Elena! See you tomorrow (later today, actually) :D
SS precious,
Again: what's left to say?
I see them shining through. And that's why.
Look up. Still see it?
You always will, if you believe.
I love you, baby.
J
I knew about the chocolate, in fact I get mad at my best friend when she lets her dog eat some, but she swears a little won't hurt and I guess it hasn't because she still has the dog. But I won't let mine have any. She did tell me though that, pork is bad for dogs, but mine have eaten it with no problems. Who knows?
Devildriver...hmm, I don't think I've heard of them. Maybe I'll youtube them later.
I don't know. All of a sudden I just started developing an attractiveness for long-haired dudes.
Long hair is one of my weaknesses ;) and has been for years.
Wendy, HELL YEAH I'm going to Cruefest!!! July 27!!!
Night E!
Morning Mayo!
Morning anyone else!
Good luck FASC & Fimble for tonight!
Love live John Arne Riise and his own goal, mwuahahaha!
I have nothing to report this morning but a sense of mid-week contentment and a painful heel from running on gravel.
Kass xx
Goodnight Elena, TJ, sweet dreams guys.
Ha ha, yeah, I think so Sugarplum. I had at least five donuts hidden somewhere before I came here tonight.
I can honestly say that the one good thing about this art school I'm applying to is that the House of Blues is located just blocks away. Imagine me having a place near there and I can go to as many concerts as I want.
Just like a kid in a candy store. I can't wait! >:)
*pouts*
Why isn't TJ getting on that bus tomorrow to head down to New Orleans?????
*pouts again and shoots TJ sad/hurt look*
Goodnight TeeeeJaaaaay!
Sweet dreams, have fun and have a safe trip to Kentucky!!!
Goodnight Elena :)
Poor Fang Bang. It looks like me and you now has the same problem concerning long hair ^_^
But seriously, besides me ogling the poor dude constantly, he's pretty talented at the drums.
When was the last time I have seen Kass? Hi Kass *waves* long time no see :)

I KNEW IT!!!!!!
*does a happy dance with Fang Bang*
We get to see SIXX:A.M too, Fang!
I knew I could not be the only one
going *big smile*
KASS!!!! Good morning to you!
Either you are early today OR I am later than I thought.
I'm content to hear of your contentment :)
I would offer to massage your heel; but, I don't think my arms can reach THAT far ;)
good night all!
elena, you know you're out here with me right? who was i text messaging all day? who did i need to share this with?
you know the drill, don't you?
schlemeel, schlemazel, hasenfeffer incorporated!
*big stupid grin*
good night, big sis.
talk to you later, blogbelieve. :)
(go out and find some pizzaz tomorrow!!)
I knew I could not be the only one

I have a feeling you will find it difficult to resist sampling all the new jelly bean flavors, BC! ;)
Hi Kass, nice to meet you :)
BC, problem? I don't see it as problem ;)
*joins in happy dance with Wendy*
I'm excited for the whole thing Sixx: a.m., Buckcherry, Trapt, Papa Roach and the Crue!!! July can't get here soon enough!!
BC: Hop a Greyhound a head to TEXAS for Crue Fest!!!!!
July 22nd -- HOUSTON!

Goodnight TJ :) Happy travels!

I know, Fang! Is that a heavenly line-up or what?!!! I love it!
*continues the happy dancing with Fang*
It's a great line-up, no sucky bands to suffer through! :D
Fang Bang, sugarplum, thanks for making me smile tonight *squeeze*
I have a feeling you will find it difficult to resist sampling all the new jelly bean flavors, BC! ;)
-------------------------------------
Yes it will sugarplum! As for Crue Fest, even if I wanted to go, I won't be able to make it.
Especially with the school thing. If I have to start next month, it means I have to stay in the city and I won't be able to go on vacation and see my family in Texas, but I guess I have to live with that because I'm not planning on putting off school this time.
I already made my decision.
BC and Fang - regarding the long hair:
I concur! :D
BC: I think you made the right decision regarding school! It's great that you're going back, sweetcheeks! You sound very excited about it. Stick with your commitment to your education.
That is ONE decision I'm sure you'll never regret!
Besides, you can always catch Crue Fest next summer...or the next...
or the next ;)
BC, I think it's great that you are so committed to your education. Cruefest can wait, lol. :D
Thanks sugarplum. And besides, HOB is nearby. Why would I NOT want to go to school? So many bands I want to see ^_^
BC, I hope you'll be able to focus on your classes. I know how hard that can be. ;)
Thanks fang bang. With school, hopefully sometime in my junior year I can intern at HOB or something.
The weather has been so nice and it feels so great relaxing under the covers. Ahhh.
I must get back to trying to get the paint out of my hair! I shall take a second shower and resort to extreme, time consuming measures if necessary.
(Yep, PEELING the paint off - strand by strand)!
Goodnight (for now) Mayo, SS, BC, Fang, Kass, watchers, lurkers, furniture painters and refurbishers of blogbelieve....
Sweet dreams to one and all!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~
Wendy
BC and Fang: try not to get into too much trouble while I'm gone!
;)
Have fun!
Ooh, BC, interning at the HOB, how exciting. What are you going to school for, (you don't have to answer if I'm being too nosy)?
Good luck with the paint removal, Wendy. Goodnight, in case I'm not here when you return. :)
Yeah it would be, but I don't want to be too straight-laced ;)
good morning mayo!!
you good?
i hope so!
morning SS!
you good?
i hope so!
bonjour famille de blogbelieve!
you all good?
i hope so!
in one of those moods today......sorry!

Goodnight and sweet dreams Sugarplum, and good luck! Fang bang, oh no, I don't mind answering questions. My intended major is music business.
And on that note, I must sign off, I'm so tired. Goodnight fang bang, sweet dreams, and hope you will have a great time at crue fest :)
Hi FASC, nice to meet you :) How are you tonight/this morning?
Good morning Faraway *waves* I hope you're well. I'm off to bed, its late and I'm super tired. Have a great morning :)
Music business, cool! I've been thinking of looking into that myself, I think I'd be happier than I am with my current employment. Goodnight and sweet dreams to you. :)
I think I better head off to bed too, long day ahead for me tomorrow. Hopefully we can all chat again tomorrow night. Goodnight to anyone still hanging around, lurking, or 'watching.'
oops sorry BC and fangbang!! i wandered off!!
night night guys!!
Goodnight 616,
Yes methinks you're up a bit later than usual, as is BC - so "Hi" to you.
And it is nice to meet you too Fang Bang, although your name slightly disturbs me!
FASC, we've gotta win one damn Champions League semi against the 'Pool; I don't care if Abramovich has to hold a player's family to ransom to do it!!

The fire, the flame, that keeps us both alive.
Always.
Our souls entwined.
Impossible to be separated by space or time.
The world can only try to keep us apart.
But it doesn't know that we share, one soul, one breath, one heart.
Thank you, my love.
Eternal Flame
do you feel the same, am I only dreaming
is this burning an eternal flame ...
April 22, 2008 7:32 AM
know i feel the same
my love
my heart
always
if this is a dream
i wish never to awake
i wish to stand with you
in the warmth of our flame
knowing your every thought, fear, strength, weakness, desire
loving every one of them
every part of you
for eternity
be well
(We're In) HEAVEN
Once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feeling down
Now nothing could change what you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way
And Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
Ya - I'll be standing there by you
And Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
We're in heaven
thank you, my love
thank you
Ummmm, just one word today........
Ewwwwwwwwwww. >_<
Have a good one Mayo, SS, and errbody! Like fo'real and stuff! Okay? ^_^
XOXO
Mayo,
How are you? I hope you are happy and well. Smiling so much your face hurts. Me? I'm good. Here we are stuck in the middle of the week again. Wednesdays, I'm still not sure what they are good for, but I think I am going to spend the day doing pretty much just what I want to all while "working" of course.
Let's see...my morning has consisted of...fruity pebbles, getting ready for work, and lots of singing. See, I've already done 2 out of 3 things that I wanted to do. My plan will be a complete success.
So, Mayo, if you are just waking up and wondering how you want to spend your Wednesday, may I recommend starting the day with Fruity Pebbles? I believe Fruity Pebbles can conquer the world. It's impossible to eat them and not be in an at least halfway good mood. So then after breakfast, you can spend Wednesday doing exactly what the hell you want!!
What?
Yeah, or something like that.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. No, Fruit Loops won't work the same way.
Gosh TLA, I do hope that you are seeing your love in the real world.
It would be a living hell to pour all your love on blog, and not be able to touch and hold the one you adore.
know i feel the same
my love
my heart
always
if this is a dream
i wish never to awake
i wish to stand with you
in the warmth of our flame
knowing your every thought, fear, strength, weakness, desire
loving every one of them
every part of you
for eternity
be well
April 23, 2008 6:25 AM
When I am with you, I am me
there is no pain, no fear, no hurt
You give me all that I need
and leave me speechless with no words
All I can do is show you how I feel
with my touch, my warmth, my fire
and our love that makes this dream real
Always.
When I'm With You
I never needed love like I need you
And I never lived for nobody, but I live for you
Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you
Maybe it's the way you touch me with the warmth of a sun
Maybe it's the way you smile, I come all undone
Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you
Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
When I'm with you
I never cared for nobody like I care for you
And I never wanted to share the things I want to share with you
Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you
Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
When I'm with you
Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you
Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you
When I'm with you
goodmorning
kass, well done in last night. i also think John Arne Riise is a closet dirty blue fan, he has to be closet though, you dont want to admit that sort of imformation hehehe.
anyhoot, goodluck in your games against them but you are going down in the title race. booyaa
bye guys.
Hi Guys!!
Ive just woken up and Im feeling like shit but I thoght I'd drop by and give you my review of MSIs gig in Yeovil last nite.
First off, 80% of the crowd was mostly teenage girls with their parents hanging out at the back and I saw a few MCR shirts too, but thats OK - I never heard of them a year ago either! They came on with Shut Me Up which is like the only song i know and Jimmy stuck his hand down his pants before shaking everyones hand in the front row. Nice! They played mostly stuff from the current album and the last one so no 5 year-old panty shot thank god! I looked at veritavenoms 'MCR is dead' thread and they did play "Bitches" and "2 hookers & an 8 ball" and the crowd actually chanted for "Faggot" which they got a girl and a guy in a rabbit & penguin costume up on stage to sing. I dont think VV would have liked "I hate Jimmy page" either! All the songs kinda blendd into one after a while but its hard to be offended by this stuff because a). you cant understand what hes actually singing and b). its totally fucking stupid! I kinda hated myself but its almost impossible not to jump around to something as dumb as "Stupid MF".
Jimmy was an dick, but a carismatic dick (sorry!) and his inter-song talk wasnt too bad, except he dedicated a song to '13 year-old girls dressed like sluts' and talkd about 'taking cocaine on the bus'. Steve has gotten faaat since the promo pics were taken and both Kitty and LynZ are alot prettier than you think from their photos. There was a lot of electronic backing traks used and LYnZs bass was fed through a synthesizer - I dont think her bass playing is very difficult so maybe shes not the most talented musican but she was jumping around a fuck of a lot and was more entertaining to watch than most bassists! Yes, she was in a very short skirt and did a back band and knelt on the stage with her legs apart but she was wearing those white fishnet dancers tights with black hotpants over - I know this because she stood up in the crowd literlly in front of me and I could see right up her skirt! She had "More than Mrs ..." written on her right arm, smiled almost constantly and just giggled when Jimmy stuck the mic in her face.
I wouldnt pay to go see them again and I still dont think they should have been taken on tour with MCR but as long as you remember its supposed to be 'mindless' youll have a fun night!
My hangover apologises for my crappy speelin, punkchooashun & gramah.
-Kira/Pants
hey blogbelieve too late for me to stay
have a great wednesday
Mayo and SS lots of love
see you in my morning
(ps TJ great to hear of your trip)
What are we coming to
No room for me, no fun for you
I think about a world to come
Where the books were found by the golden ones
Written in pain, written in awe
By a puzzled man who questioned
What we were here for
All the strangers came today
And it looks as though they're here to stay
cheers for that peace, take care of your h/o. i hate those.
Im going back to bed now Fimble Star. I just thought you should know that MSI are bad, but theyre not THAT bad!!
-K/P
Good *insert time of day here* Mayo, SS, FASC, TLA, TLA's love, Ergo, Pants, Sdock, MIB, Smoke, Fimble, various anons, watchers....
world!
*wonders where Possum is*
Thank you for the comment at my place Possum! You are most welcome!
How are you all today? I hope you all had a most excellent night of sleep! Ohhh.....my hair is now paint free. I knew inquiring minds would want to know ;)
For those of you with a regular schedule, congratulations! You are half way through the work week!!!
Ergo: Did I read something about camping? Did you roast some marshmallows and drink some scothch for me? I hope you had fun!
Pants: Thanks for the concert review! It sounds as though you had fun. At the end of the day, that's what counts (well, that and how you treated people who crossed your path during said day) I'm sure passed both the 'fun and treatment of others' tests! :D
To ponder today:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are admirable potentialities in every human being. Believe in your strength and your truth. Learn to repeat endlessly to yourself. "It all depends on me."
Andre Gide
and:
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”
Swindoll
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have the best day possible everyone!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Wake up you sleepy head
Put on some clothes, shake up your bed
Put another log on the fire for me
I've made some breakfast and coffee
Look out my window and what do I see
A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me
All the nightmares came today
And it looks as though they're here to stay
ops, u realize ss is talking about u in his profile right??/ honesty - which u seem incapable of possessing
anonymous you realize that ss is talking about you on his profile right? your lack of respect and the dishonesty of the ones that faked that email and sent the PICTURE of the faked email around
move the fuck on
Good morning everyone! Did I mention I'm still smiling. Now I'm contemplating going to the Columbus show. Can't make up my mind.
Later Lovelies
i love david bowie anon @ 8.56am!!
your lack of respect and the dishonesty of the ones that faked that email and sent the PICTURE of the faked email around
------
You're saying that Fimble Star is a liar. And she is not because she's not the only one who got that email.
Face it OPs, only the braindead people believe that email was faked. You did it. You got caught.
Tell me, why would someone go through the trouble of faking an email to say "hypocrites" and talk about Gentle Vengence? A faked email would have contained worse stuff than that. Why would anyone go so far as to send a fake email to only Fimble Star, and just do it once, and say the random things that you said? "You guys are hypocrites and you're net begging us to stay, let me add a reference to Gentle Vengence so that you don't think it's the OPs because everyone knows we hate her".
No way. A faked email would have said many other things.
And it would not have been sent out by blogger, which this one was.
It wasn't what you said that got you into trouble. It was the fact that you lied. You lied, and then when you got caught you turned around and pointed the finger at Sdock, MissT, PPU the "porchies". You accused them of hacking.
I know your friends will never accept that but every time someone says it was fake, they are accusing the same people over again.
HONESTY
your lack of respect and the dishonesty of the ones that faked that email and sent the PICTURE of the faked email around
--------
Say the names anon. Say who you are accusing again.
WHO CARES!
WHO CARES!
WHO CARES!
WHO CARES!
ANON at 10:27
Thank you.....
Could you please repeat that again?
This topic is so old it farts dust..........
Writing this in a rush, sorry, I hope to be clear.
Okay, okay, here we go again. I keep trying to ignore this in hopes that it will go away. It doesn't seem to.
Sometimes honestly is not the best policy, as in this case. Why? Because honesty leads to awkwarness. Sometimes silence is the best policy, even if you know the truth. Here's why.
Say the names anon. Say who you are accusing again.
Please don't. Everytime someone brings this up, people come out saying that the email was faked. 10:21, I agree with you when you said this: every time someone says it was fake, they are accusing the same people over again.
Those people are my friends and me. Smoke saw the actual post. Saying the email was faked is saying she's lying. PPU had nothing to do with it. Saying that s/he did is calling him/her a liar. Solly and all the others were playing a game that night. Saying the email was faked is saying that they had something to do with it because of a silly game. I'm still not clear on why my name was brought into it, but I seem to remember it was because I had gone to bed early that night. I still don't understand why that all happened.
We had nothing to do with it. Anons, please stop saying that we did. Please stop asking to bring this back up. I didn't care about the stupid post or email until we somehow got dragged into it, and for doing absolutely nothing.
This is why honesty can get awkward and sometimes it's better to just not say anything at all about it! Look, no one is going to make anyone believe what they don't already believe, one way or the other. It's turned into a fight for dominance over other people's "truth" and it's just pointless. Right?
Okay, I really have to run, gotta go babysit.
If you want to keep on bringing this up, can you please bring it up on the porch. I hate when comments get vaulted into the thousands over subjects like these.
close up view of that email with spelling error circled
spelling error pointed out
the other half
any explaination?
Anon(s) please quit with this. I expect both sides involved are tired and want to move on; us "neutrals" stopped giving a damn about 30 seconds after it happened. It's as stupid and pointless fighting about this as it is arguing with the "URJUSTJELLUS!!!111" brigade over at Buzznet; relieve yourself of this burden and thou shalt find inner contentment. I did!
Thanks for the review PoP; if JU still seeks to annoy than he shall fail - I'm quite liking the new stuff* on the MySpace and I'm, like, getting on a bit!
Kass xx
*To my burning shame
good morning all. (and it is still morning, there's a half-hour of it left so i'm in my rights. *grin*)
i stayed up until 6 am getting it all down in my journal, everything i could remember, all of it.
re-lived it, basically.
and i've spent what time i've been up this morning playing with a child (who is 110% full of pizzaz, i kid you not), looking through the black parade book while she pointed out her favorite pictures. she likes the dead bird, particularly.
she's a weird kid. :)
and i've had about half-as-much coffee as i really need today...
but things are still good.
oh no!
the computer is starting to make that sound. better hurry this up then.
i'll be on the road, no internet (though maybe if i'm nice elena will keep me updated on the blog doin's via text msg. *puppy dog eyes*) until i'm ensconced on my folks' computer in kentucky.
don't break the blog, ok?
save some for me!
mayo,
sometimes i can't believe this place is real -- maybe i'm ridiculous but when i look at what this blog is straight on i am overwhelmed with gratitude for being allowed to be a part of it.
my life has been utterly transformed because of this place, because of the encouragement and love i receive from so many here. you encourage me, too, you know, with every word.
i've been thinking about getting my first tattoo at the end of this trip, to commemorate it. i want words...i'm a writer, too, and i want words on me to remember this experience.
your words, if you don't mind.
i haven't decided which ones -- the trip isn't over -- but maybe, if you feel like it, you could write me something, sometime? no pressure, i would only use it if it was perfectly right for me, so you wouldn't have to worry that i'd blindly write whatever you type up. it would have to resonate with me, and my memories of this trip, and how it is transforming me.
but...
well, it's a bold request, isn't it?
don't freak out, mayo. i'm not a blog-stalker. *grin*
gotta go -- got things to do and then this afternoon, the bus!
talk to you all from kentucky (sorry it's not new orleans, wendy! *grin*),in a few days!
bye, blogsibs
(elena, read you later?)
bye mayo. be well.
TJ
Take care. You know we'll stay in touch via text.
Be safe....always
Hearts my sister
Elena
I think it's hilarious that Kapunua asks someone to quit with something.
Hello Elena,
From TJ:
*big squeezy hug*
She wanted me to tell you that she is currently sitting at my dining room table writing you a real pen and paper letter.
We had a great time last night, but I think she is missing you pretty hard.
-VM
Final words – this I mean
The whole incident took on a life of its own.
Kapunua said
Smoke saw the actual post. Saying the email was faked is saying she's lying.
Well the same can be said for Wendy. She too says she saw the actual post.
Bottom line is this.. People are going to believe who they choose to believe.
Sometimes silence is the best policy, even if you know the truth.
Of course we all have our own truths. I agree though that silence is the best policy in this matter because nothing is going to change what people think. I accept that. I don’t care. I will believe what I want and let others believe what they want.
Really the worst part of all of this shit is that it’s so unimportant. People please put things into prospective. Look at the world outside your window and see all the things that are important. This constant rehashing is time wasted.
I will add just one more thing…It has been said that this keeps being brought back up as a means to tear us apart. Well, that can only work if we let it. This place is too special to let this happen. Please, don’t let this shit ruin what we have, just let it go.
Hey VM
TJ is writing a real letter? For me? Oh my I only get bills in the mail.
I miss her too. The house is so quiet. LOL
OH and the cats really miss her.
I'm so glad you both had a great time at the concert.
I can't wait for St Louis....
I am following Kapu's request and putting a question in DM instead of here.
Elena I had a question about something you said I put it on DM. You dont' have to answer it but it confused me.
Mayo, I've read over your post a 1/2 dozen times so far. I kick the words around and I search for a comment. Yet, I cannot seem to find one.
I searched for poetry, a quote, scientific information to help me express what I thought was in my head. But I got nothing.
Apparently my brain is a vacuum. It sucks up all the information but I have nothing to show for it.
So, with that, all I can do is hope that you have a nice day. It's sunny here and I keep trying to think of a way to ditch work this afternoon.
So far I've come up with:
walking out,
taking a long lunch,
fake an illness
fake an injury (do papercuts count?)
or pleading insanity.
Anon thanks for taking it to DM.
I cannot BEGIN to tell you the kind of gorgeous day it is here! It's a typically gorgeous Spring day.
Jennicula, you should come on chat. You are sorely missed. ^_^
Hey Mayo, I want you to know something. A lot of us--more than I know, I'm sure--really do get your posts, or parts of them. Now, I'm pretty slow so sometimes I rely on other people to "get" these things for me. Once in a while I get them too. Some of the time, we just don't feel like we can talk about our interpretations here because, you know, trolls tend to come out from under the bridge. Like your p.s., well, I know that a bunch of people here had a total lightbulb moment. I don't know if it means anything to you, Mayo, but I wanted to tell you anyway that just because we're not discussing the stuff you're saying doesn't mean that we don't hear you. Well, sometimes many of us don't. But you know, sometimes we do.
Now back to the weather.
You know what days like this remind me of? They remind me of a song we sang in chorus when I was in tenth grade. (Did you know I used to be a really good soprano? Like, really really good? Bet you didn't. Bet you can't imagine this amazon as a soprano, but she was. ;D )
I don't remember the entire song, just some of it, but I do remember the melody and I find myself singing it a lot. The words that I do remember went like this:
Sweet day, so cool, so calm so bright,
the bridal of the earth and sky,
the dew shall weep they fall tonight,
for thou must die....
THere was a middle part that talked about "Sweet day, so full of spring and roses,
a box where sweets compacted lie..." I remember our teacher explaining to us that it was about a box of candy.
I remember the end though. Maybe you might like it, Mayo, it went like this:
Only a sweet and virtuous soul
like seasoned timber never gives /
But though the whole world turn to coal/
then chiefly lives.
Do you know anyone with a sweet and virtuous soul? A friend of yours? Yourself?
Hope you're all enjoying the spring weather, those of you who are having, you know. Spring weather. ^_^
Kapunua -
Thank you for describing the beautiful day you are experiencing.
I too am having a lovely spring day but in true Kansas tradition the threat of storms is nearing. Just down the road in Topeka the storms are gathering.
Spring in Kansas can be beautiful but violent. I'm hoping the storms don't reach us.
Oh man, I love thunderstorms. Of course it's way different where you are out there, where it can turn ugly. O_o I guess they would lose their appeal.
Our main concern out here when we get bad storms is floods. Long Island is teeny, it's just a sandbar. Water seems to come out of nowhere. I swear you could be driving along the road and the next thing you know you're hydroplaning like crazy.
Hey Mayo!
How's your day going? Well, I hope.
So, I was thinking about your post and the 'prickly pear'. I looked it up online because I never saw one. It's hard and scary on the outside, but what is on the inside is delicious once one is able to get to it.
Then, the prickly pear kept needling me. It seemed familiar, like I heard it somewhere, but I dismissed it. Then last night, while doing lesson plans, BAM!
The Hollow Men by T.S. Eliot
Here we go round the prickly pear
Prickly pear prickly pear
Here we go round the prickly pear
At five o’clock in the morning.
Between the idea
And the reality
Between the motion
And the act
Falls the Shadow
I got all giddy, and had a 'lightbulb moment'.
So, here's hoping you have a 'lightbulb moment' today.
visit me
dm
Thank you for that, Star. ^_^
Hey Star, I got an email from another college and I just left a message with the continuing education adviser. (I thought I'd catch him int he office; guess not.) Hopefully he will call me back soon and tell me where to begin.
I won't lose momentum!
Mayo, I had this creeping suspicion that you were lurking around here today.
If you are, do come out and say something to everyone. I promise you I won't leap out from behind a corner and throw words at you. You won't even know I'm here, but it'd be nice to read you.
Hey guys, I just remembered my dream! I dreamed I went to a Leathermouth concert. I was all up on the barricade but the stage was really far away. I woke up before they got on stage though. Damn! What a tease.
the comment that started all the mess
mischief managed said...
Hypocrites,
You all seem to be more concerned with making sure your beloved prety unicorn is welcome and happy than you are that no
one has heard from someone who threatened suicide (or do YOU know anything PPU?) or that people you called your friends have left, some of them possibly for good.
I used to think this was such a wonderful place of unity and concern for each other's well-being.
Now I know better, I am leaving too.
Hope you all have a 'lovely, peaceful, and sunshny day.'
FEBRUARY 22, 9:42 AM
Hello, put it on THE PORCH.
Hiya Blogbelieve Friends!
Today is a beautiful day - I do not want to be inside damnit. Grrr.
SS, I saw your update from the other day. Thank you. Per usual I'm still worried about you. Hope you are enjoying this lovely day (at least I hope it's beautiful were you are) outside and not inside some darn office space. ^_^
Elena, I'm still catching up, but I am so happy Jake came back! And I finally got all the silly photos downloaded off my phone, I will be sending those hopefully sometime tomorrow.
Kapunua, did I read that you are going back to school?! YAY!!! I'm so proud of you. (Again, I haven't read everything, so I will have to read more or have you fill me in on the details.)
*sips on fruit smoothie*
Mmmmm Yum.
So Mayo, whatcha up to?
*takes another sip*
Damn that is GOOD!!!
*has brainfreeze*
I think I'm gonna go smoke.
And I need to get back to work. :(
I want to, Anima. I'm trying to get info on what program would be the best for my purposes, where they are and how much they will cost. :)
Hey guys, I just remembered my dream! I dreamed I went to a Leathermouth concert. I was all up on the barricade but the stage was really far away. I woke up before they got on stage though. Damn! What a tease.
Niiiiice.
^_^
Hey errbody!
Hey Princess.
I'm just tousling with some anon and playing video games. What you doin'?
Hey, everyone.
Sorry about that post this morning. The more I thought about leaving it up, the more I started kicking myself for even writing it, so it got trashed.
For the sake of argument, this morning was tough as hell and I didn't want to get out of my bed.
BUT! Sounds like all of your days are going well!
Afternoon, Mayo. :)
I'm so sad now. We had been hearing a baby kitten outside but didn't know where it was coming from. Well, we found her and she was soooo cute! She was grey just like my Sugar-kitty. The O.G. Cat. ^_^
Well, I went to go get some baby-formula to feed her because she didn't even have her eyes open yet and when I got back.....she was gone. :(
Excuse me, can someone please direct me to DM's blog?
I'm feeling slightly out of the loop and dont have enough information to reach my own conclusion on the matter.
Smoke, that's so sad. Maybe it'll turn up again?
Here you go, Anonymous.
Discuss Mayo
Thank you, Mustard.
You're very welcome!
What doesn't make sense is why you decided to play a game called Orange Little Bees. orange B's are what makes bloggers LOOK like they are signed in. Sdock said that she thought of it because she saw orange bees outside on her porch. (That's right, the PORCH)!! But it was night time, why would there be bees on a porch at night?
Are you serious?
You realize that it's not a for real porch, right?
DM = porch
O_o
Exactly! SHe was talking abotu DM!
So are you agreeing with me or what?
I so fucking lost and it so does not fucking matter anymore.
Jesus Christ Peas and Rice!
good morning!
Good morning, Ergo!
How goes it?
Thank you for directing me to the other blog. It saddens me that you have no respite there and you are still subjected to anonymous attacks.
I thought we towed the dead horse away to the pit o'death yesterday?
hi smoke kapunua anima mustard star elena and anyone else
so who wants to come camping with me tomorrow?
I hope Ergoproxy doesn't mind me reposting this.
I was looking back over the Christmas presents that were left for everyone last year (Thank you Kapunua for setting that up) and trying to remember what we were all like back then. I have to admit, I found myself crying when I realized what all has happened. Please everyone, on both sides, stop the hurt, the hate, please no more. Take a moment and go back over those presents. It will break your heart.

Mayonaise World Tour 2008
Merry Christmas Everybody!!!
For my present I’d like to take you on a trip
Mayo and SS will be kidnapped (very nicely and gently) and placed on the incredibly large comfortable and fully equipped tour bus.
And everybody promises to leave them alone (and that means everybody OP’s!) at least until the tour is over.
As we are all MCR fans we shall begin our tour In New Jersey with a special concert in which Gerard will be instructed to just sing the songs and not say anything on a list lovingly compiled for him by Kapunua.
The backstage gear shall be organised by TJ Elena and myself and our newly formed company. I will unfortunately not be able to help fully though as Mustard and I shall be giving a certain pair of magic hands a limbering up massage prior to the performance.
The OP’s shall, along with most of the others being ensuring that Frank gets to the stage unharmed and on time. Mikey and Bob shall be looked after by whoever else is not already occupied (poor Bob and Mikey)
We shall then travel with Star in Lodi (NJ) and we shall visit Glen Danzig’s house and travel 10 mins to spend an exciting evening at the Loop Lounge.
We will drive up to Canada travelling via Hamilton, the home of Magic Pie, and also the donut capital of the world!! We shall load up with a huge quantity of donuts to munch as we drive past the steel mills (windows up!) and then on to visit Toronto for Redrum, Capture This Void and Resurrected Wreck where we shall spend about 4 days seeing
Royal Ontario Museum, Art Gallery of Ontario, Ontario Science Centre, Princess of Wales Theatre, Toronto Zoo, Chinatown, Casa Loma, Toronto Islands (Gibraltar Point Lighthouse), Yonge St. (Eaton Centre), Queen St. West, The Beguiling, Panorama Lounge and the Kensington Market
From there we will travel to see Paperheart in Winnepeg where we shall smother everyone in Hugs!! And also visit The Forks and Grand Beach
We move north to Edmonton where Sister Midnight lives and visit West Edmonton Mall (duh), the river valley, Whyte Avenue, The Muttart Conservatory, the University of Alberta campus
Then South to Calgary and Amyranths suggestions to visit Redd Skull Comics, Higher Grounds Coffee Shop, Bernard Callebaut Chocolatiers, Vicious Circle Cafe, Sentry Box, Chinook Center Mall, Calgary Tower, Crescent Road.
And as we leave Canada we all shall be wired on coffee and stuffed with Calgary chocolates!
We move to Toujour’s home of Seattle and visit the Pike Place Markets then the Sci Fi Museum and finally Seaherst Park (a little gem) Then west to Chicago for BC where we split up and choose to visit anything from Lake Shore Drive, Navy Pier, the Field Musuem, Lincoln Park Zoo, Brookfield Zoo, the Magnificent Mile (Michigan Avenue), The Musuem of Science and Industry, The Art Institute, Adler Planitarium, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Broadway, etc.And then to Bay City where Carrie can show us around the lumber baron mansions on Center Avenue, the many churches in the area with soaring spires, very Gothic. And after all the churches, the bars on Midland Street, home of the yearly pub crawl.And we can all sleep it off on the bus!
From Chicago we travel to California to visit Martha Jones in Oakland and see the Oakland Museum and across to San Fransisco to see the Asian Art Museum then down to Silence in San Diego (though she did’nt respond to the blog I think we should call in!) Then down to Mexico for Andiebomb in Monerrey to see Paseo Santa Luchia, Fundidora Park and the Contemporary Art Museum.Then across the country to New Orleans with 616 to see The French Quarter(and not JUST Bourbon Street), New Orleans Museum of Art/City Park, The Riverwalk, The Aquarium, areas still not rebuilt since Hurricane Katrina such as The Ninth Ward, Lakeview and Chalmette Live entertainment: The House of Blues, The Howling Wolf, The Famous Door, One Eyed Jacks, Club Eutopia, THE DUNGEON (no bands, but still entertaining, dark and loud)
After which we may need a rest!
We travel through South Carolina to Mya's home near the town of Greenville admiring the fabulous mountain scenery, then take a 3 hr trip to Charleston and have a look around
Then we move to Florida and Daytona with Fimblestar and of course to the Speedway and Daytona Beach. Up to Knoxville Tennessee where the OP’s will show us the Great Snowy Mountains National Park.And we shall carefully drive to Shelby to the home of Smoke&Venom20 and Sdock10 but her advice is "We are a geographical oddity 2 hours from everything.
Need to see: nothing. If you find yourself in Douglas, Georgia, you are way too deep in the Georgia swamps. Keep driving until you hit the Florida line. Do not talk to strangers. We have lots of unsolved murder mysteries and shit like that." But S&V assures us there are plenty of good ol' country boys to protoct us!
Across to Kansas City for Elena to see her bookstore and all buy something!Then to St Louis the home of Anima to see The Arch,The Loop in University City
Forest Park (Home of the 1904 World's Fair)
Soulard - Historic town that is just awesome. Plenty of pubs and great food.
North City - JUST KIDDING - do not go there!
Up to Cleaveland with VM spending a few days to see everything! The Rock n Roll hall of Fame, The Alternative Press offices, The West Side Market, The Grog Shop, Tommy's (and all of Coventry), The Cleveland Orchestra at Severance Hall (and all of the University Circle museums), The Cleveland Botanical Garden, The Cleveland Metroparks ZOO and Rainforest, and The Great Lakes Brewing Company, SPACES Gallery, Playhouse Square Center (outside of NYC, it is the biggest performing arts complex...(I am there far too much), and Dennis Kucinich.
Across to Philadelphia with Jennicula to see the Liberty Bell, Reading Terminal Valley Forge Park and Independence Hall.We shall travel then to Long island to meet Kapunua’s dogs and crow perhaps taking some relaxing walks along the beach and visiting some of the many haunted locations! Then to the airport to fly across the Atlantic to London
Once in the UK we shall board our new tour bus and heads off to Essex with Jade and the O2 Arena to catch a concert (all bookings taken care of) then to down to Plymouth with farawayso close to see the Plymouth Hoe. Up to Bristol (amidst many boob jokes) withKass79 to visit her home at Burnham on sea and to see the mud flats and Hickley Point nuclear power station. We have the second highest tidal difference in the World and every Summer a couple of Brummies try to walk to the power station, get stuck up to their armpits in mud and have to be rescued by our hovercraft.
We then move move up to Sheffield with MissT to see the Wintergardens, Manchester to see the home ofDei gratia and Fimblestars old home and theatre of dreams, canal street, Machester itself. And invade DG’s home to dring tea and make her bake scones.
Up then to Burnley with Shame in Me to see the Towneley Hall and Pendle hill, and then on to Bedford with Gnothi Seauton to see all the small local Art galleries, The Butterfly Park, the river, and soon to come...The Nirah Project, a huge aquarium built along the same line as The Eden Project, but for marine life , not plant life. Which sounds lovely.
We haed down to London to make our way across to france to see Villanelle’s suggestions of the Marais (where she lives), Père-Lachaise Cemetery, Quartier Latin (Shakespeare and Company bookshop, Caveau de la Huchette - jazz bar), Montmartre... everything!and Especially for MissT to see in Paris: the obelisk at the Place de la Concorde and the Egyptian antiquities at the Louvre museum Plus I’d add all the touristy thing as hey we are all in Paris!!!

Down then to Rome to the home of Bellatrix and seeing the Este Residence (www.terragalleria.com/images/italy/ital7318.jpeg) and all the other sights of Rome!!
Then a long flight to New Zealand to visit Pickled Possums home and she can show us around the area perhaps to climb any of Auckland's 56 dormant volcanoes.
Have a hangi (underground cooking with heated stones)- I can vouch,very yummy!!or go on a LOTR locations guided trip! Then fly across to Australia's southernmost island state of Tasmania to see Cupcake’s city Hobart and the Salamanca Markets then finally up to my home outside of Mackay in Queensland to visit my menagerie of animals then off on a trip to see all the aussie wildlife, out to the genfields to fossick for some sapphires and then finishing it all off with a relaxin week on a tropical Barrier Reef Island. (sunscreen supplied)
Hoping everybody has a fantastic Christmas and a very happy new year!!
Hey Ergo!
Well 4:35, to be fair, I did ask them to take the arguments over there.
hi anon who's nice,
I'm good mustard, just got up and haven't made my coffee yet, it's 6:30am
*yawns*
*rubs eyes*
Hi Ergo! Unless camping has indoor plumbing, a shower, and the guarantee of absolutely no ticks, I will pass. ^_^
You're welcome, Anonymous.
Yeah, we attempted to keep all that stuff out of Mayo's. That's why we try to get somewhat controversial things sent to DM. It doesn't always work, but we all try.
---
And thank you to the Anons who took it there instead of keeping it all at Mayo's.
oh anon I don't mind at all :)
it took me so long to work that out, I even sat with an atlas to make sure it was in a logical order!
That was funny, Ergo. I loved reading that back at Christmas. ^_^
Ergo,
Sounds like you need a double shot o' something!
Ergo,
I mean, I think we have the best duties, don't you think?
Magic finger skillz are a necessity, I'm just sayin'.
Poor Bob and Mikey. :(
I'll take care of Bob and Mikey.
We'll like have fun and what-not.
And do stuff and what-not.
I love Mikey and what-not.
^_^
kapunua, could have some sort of indoor, well I won't say plumbing but set up, we have a shower (though it gets hung in a tree with a tarp around it, but hot water) and we've never gotten ticks there!
we are in a beach hut this time, though don't really know how it's set up yet, but apparently it has a fridge if you have a generator so I assume it has a bit. probably a shower set up too
there are however sandfies and mozzies, the major drawbacks of the aussie beach!
I'll take photos
What-not.
Dude needs a shirt, I'm tellin' ya!
Hello everyone!
MissT, I read about your teaching course.I'm so happy for you, sweetie!Congrats!
One more thing: I MISS YOU!
Take care
*HUG*
Fimble, hope you received my lst email.
Anon, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
smoke I'm glad you'll look after them.....and I really read I love mikey's what not first time!!
mustard - if I organise the trip ... :)
that was when we decided we'd have one hand each
hello bella!
Hey Bella!
Yes, Ergo. We decided, together, that we would each contribute our services to one hand. It was only fair. :)
Ooooh, Ergo. Will Bear Grylls be there? I'll camp out with Bear Grylls.
I ♥ Bear.
Hello ergo, mustard and smoke!

o_O
Nooooo! Alicia is so pretty but she scares me. I wouldn't dare talk about Mikey's what-not.
Hey Bella! ^_^
well each hand truly deserves full attention!
Smoke!
Bwhahah! I had to reread, because I wasn't too sure what we were discussing to be honest! O_O
well each hand truly deserves full attention!
I agree so hard! :)
"Nooooo! Alicia is so pretty but she scares me. I wouldn't dare talk about Mikey's what-not"
AH!I can imagine her defending Mikey! XD
This one is really bittersweet. It is so funny, but it was written by one of our lost sisters, Dei Gratia. I miss her still.
A GIFT FOR YOU ALL!
THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS
by Clement Clarke Moore and Dei Gratia
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Mayo’s house,
Not a blogger was stirring, not even an anonymouse;
The stockings were hung (by the Original Punks) by the chimney with care,
In hope that Shitsubou Shita soon would be there;
Villanelle, Ergoproxy, Possum and Paperheartxx were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Pixie, Cupcake and Mustard danced in their heads;
And Sister Midnite in her boots, and Kapunua tipping her cap,
Had just settled down with anon616 and Alive! for a long winter's nap,
When out on the lawn , Toujours and Jennicula made such an Andiebomb clatter,
Siobhan and Shame in Me sprang from their beds to see what was the matter.
Away to the window MissT and Gnothi flew like a flash,
Fimble tore open the shutters, Anima threw up the sash.
The moon on Elena’s breasts in the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to Mayo’s blog sheep below,
When, what to Sdock and Gentle Vengeances’ wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature kickball game, RW, VV, SC, VM and the leaders of cheer,
With Entropy and Martha, so lively and quick,
And a mean anon running around with a glow-stick.
More rapid than eagles; Amyranth , The Avenger and Velocity Girl, they coursed through the game,
An Interested Party whistled.The Masked Anon shouted, and called them by name;
"Now, Mya! now, Jade! now, Eliza B! now, Lolita, you Vixen!
On, Kass! on Carrie! on, Bellatrix; go Blitz’em!
From the top of the porch! Mayo shouts over the wall!
Now dash! I like oranges! dash away all!"
As dry leaves that Capture This Void fly,
When they meet, Bittersweet Heart and Bitter Revenge mount to the sky,
So up to the house-top the bloggers they flew,
With blogs full of e-gifts. Redrum, PJ and Andrea, too.
And then, like a twinkling Star, a tiara was seen on the roof
The prancing and pawing of Ernie’s little hoof.
As Magic Pie drew in her hand, and Silence was turning around,
Down the chimney Shitsubou Shita came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with Mayo sheep poo, ashes and soot;
Squealing OP’s he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a riddler just opening his quiz-pack.
His eyes -- how they twinkled! FASC got so merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His cute little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
All the bloggers mused how they loved him (and Mayo!) so;
The stump of a rose for Emily he held tight in his teeth,
And smoke and venom encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That Lonely One thought shook when he laughed; like Gel or a bowlful of jelly.
He was handsome and buff, a right cutie elf,
And Katherine Dreier giggled when she saw him, in spite of herself;
A wink of his eye and a nod of his head,
Soon gave them to know they had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his (present anon) work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his car, to his friends Franklin, Lewis and Bikey gave a whistle,
And away they flew like the down of a thistle.
And I heard m exclaim, as they drove out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night."
lol smoke I think (hope) it would get enough attention from her, you can be in charge of his new cool longer hair instead
Anonymous,
That's so eerie. I thought about DG this morning and how I couldn't remember her blog address and how, the next time I see MissT, I'm supposed to ask her for it (I make mental notes).
HELLO MAYO
Oh, sorry everyone, I don't really think he's here. I just wanted to say hello to him. I'm not even sure why. I was just sitting here in the bookstore and suddenly thought "I've got to say hello to Mayo." So I did.
Okay carry on everyone........
oh anon I'd forgotten that one! gosh DG did a fantastic job!
I miss her too
Yes, Ergo! Totally!
Ya'll know how I love hair so, that'd be cool.
I'm actually a little jealous of ol'Bob. The last pic I saw of him his blonde hair was amaaaayzzzing. ^_^
Anon, thanks.
Mustard,I should ask for her address too.I miss her.
Hey Elena!
hello elena!!
I hope I can catch you with you later, I'll be away 3 days!
I think it was deigratia(dash)69, or maybe without the dash, I can't remember. But, I think that's the main part of it.
I'll give each a try and see what works.
Do you guys want to hear something totally mad, that will get you angry?
Check out this dude who is calling the gay-rights Day Of Silence wrong, because GAY SEX KILLS!
Yup, that's right, specifically buttsecks, that kills A LOT.
Watch out, people, because GAY SEX is coming for you next! You never know when or where it is going to strike! You're out on a picnic with your family one day and BAM! GAY SEX SHANKS YOUR MOM.
Seriously dude. Can we have a "day of silence" from these people? Or how about a few years of silence? That'd be so great!
Hey Bella
good to see you!
Ergo you can't leave for three whole days!!! Oh I mailed your package this morning.
Thank you, mustard!
Hey Kapu!
*HUG*
Oh,I've sent you an email.
Where is it?
Lets get some perspective, people.
And yes, I have this on my ipod!!!
One more that I hope Paperheart doesn't mind that I posted. This one was so simple and heartfelt, and said it so well. Thank you for putting up with me reposting. I just wanted to share them with all. I don't know if I can read any more, not right now. I can't stop crying.
Paperheart's Christmas Message
Okay, for now, just because I suck at writing, and it takes a VERY long time for me to finish things up, and get everything I want on paper, I just want to say Happy Holidays to you all.
We've been there for one another, through thick and thin. That really is a hard thing to accomplish considering we are all miles apart. We've taught one another many many life lessons, well, mostly you all have taught me. Each day, I try remember to have love, hope and faith. Those are the three main words processed through my brain everyday. I would not be who I am today if it weren't for each and every single one of you. Seriously, I can't even say how happy I am to have virtually met you all. This includes Mayo and SS, even though I've never really talked to you both. But reading the comments and blogs and all the love and support shown, it really blows me away. Family has become an essential word used everyday on these blogs.
As the Mayo Mafia and Blog Believe family, we've all been there to pick each other up when we were down. We've fought, we've cried, we've laughed. Together. This is one place where I can really feel safe to express myself. No one has ever judged anyone, unless is was an anonymous person who wasn't so kind. We've fought for each other against the "bad" guys. Really. I can't even say everything.
Basically, that was random babble off of the top of my head. I don't know if it will mean anything, and I don't know if it is worth reading. Just know, that I truly care about you all.
Pactum Serva.

I'm about to read that, but how about that representative from Colorado?
Calling the Hispanic workers they have there "illiterate peasants" on the floor of the house.
I'll post the link in a minute.
O_O
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT...
Hey, Anon, that's a good song!
And, *gasp*, it actually has a good, solid message.
kapunua perhaps GAY SEX lurks everywhere just waiting for an opportunity to pounce!
Yay elena!!!
I am shopping for you this morning, and should have it to send next week
I got mobile service around there last time so I may be able to get my emails, can't know 'till I'm there though
Fergie! ^_^
Reposting Anon,
Thank you. It was nice to go back and read that stuff again. ^_^
It's around every corner, Ergo. And there's no way to guard against it.
Yeah, I got a soft spot for Black Eyed Peas, wtf? O_o
5:06 why so many tears?
Thank you anon for posting the wonderful memories.
We have all come so far yet we need to remember our past.
We need to make new memories like these. Ones we will be able to look back on in a few months and smile.
anon that's a great song the words are so menaingful
*hands anon a tissue and gives them a big hug*
PH always underestimates the thoughtfulness and truthfulness of her words, and she shouldn't, she has a real knack of hitting the nail fair and square
meaningful even!
PH amazes me.
Well, that's stupid and crazy all mixed up into one nice little package.
Here's the story about the Colorado Representative.
I see what you did there, Sneaky Sneakerson.

???? WHAT?
Check out SS's.
Thank you.
Up above, Jules. Just posted it. :)
Same time, Anon! *high fives you*
A Sneaky Sneakerson is better than a Stiffly Stifferson.

hahahaha
I just reread my trip blog and we loaded up the bus with donuts!
Elena! how spooky is that!!
"PH amazes me."
I second that
Thanks Splash; it's going to get me mad, I know it.
Uhh, and as far as what I'm supposed to be seeing, I am utterly retarded. Sorry. O_o
Ergo
It was a sign......
Magic, I tell you, this place is full of magic!
thanks SS
and that would have to be one of my favourite Beatles songs, we all need to stand around in a big circle arms around each other and sing along!!
kapunua he added a link on his blog
OMG SPlash, they made him leave the floor though! How hilarious is that!
"GET OUT, BIGOT! You go stand in the corner till you learn how to act!"
Still, how the hell do these people get in positions of power? I mean, I know how, but it still boggles me.
Well, lots of things boggle me.
S(S)S, remember, with the "family" and "respect" thing, I get to be consiglieri, okay? ;)
Since we're on the topic, if you guys have not had the opportunity to see Across The Universe, do so.
I really don't think you'll be disappointed. It's a beautiful film, but I'm partial. :)
Thank you, friend.
Dear Mayo,
I'm assuming you're talking about the comiccon when you refer to something being not as grand as you thought it would be?
Convenient excuse for your post to be a day late.
Oh jeez, I thought that had been there a while.
Like I said, easily boggled.
*facepalm*
Uhh, probably not too good of a consiglieri then, after all.
"You said you'd tell me how they were gonna come at me!"
"Yeah but I flaked! Sorry!"
SS!
Thank you for everything.
^_^
Smile today, 'kay?

Yes. Maybe someone can come up with something for May Day, or just Lovelies Day? Hey, there all other kind of days, why not?
SS, as always, thank you.
The Beatles song has been there, right?
It just wasn't highlighted in red.
Am I right? Or am I wrong?
Prolly wrong!
mustard I cannot believe in this day that people still make comments like that, especially someone in government!
OMG!!!
Redrum is Mayo!
I'm gonna weep and jiggle erratically at this amazingly beautiful revelation.
Alright. Done. Had to do it.
Thank you.
SS--I can imagine you doing your thang to the Black Eyed Peas. Thanks for sharing! I wouldn't have guessed you had that song on your I-pod.
Ergo:
Tell me about it. If anything boggles the mind, that will.
Smoke:
You're right! It's red now. :)
And I'm up for another day. Valentime's Day didn't go over so well, but maybe we can do another one, yeah? I think it'd be pretty fun, and maybe we could all do a blog party like old times?
it wasn't in red before
oh anon reminded me of days, could you all take a minute on the 25th (or it would be this time on your 24th) to remember the australian and new zealand soldiers who have fought and died in battles and are currently serving overseas
ANZAC Day
What do we have Mayo get the Lovelies for Lovelies Day? Oh, and don't forget SS. He has to think of something too. Come on guys, start planning now. Anyone want to set a day?
Ergoproxy,
In heart and mind.
Yeah, absolutely, Ergo. Thanks for posting.
And I'm up for another day. Valentime's Day didn't go over so well, but maybe we can do another one, yeah? I think it'd be pretty fun, and maybe we could all do a blog party like old times?
No, it really didn't, did it?
Well, I'm willing to have a go at May Day for sure, I love that holiday!
Got any ideas? Lemme know. ^_^
YAHHHH!
Man, I hate being last.
