About a recusant.

It is a youthful requirement,
A developmental entitlement,
To want to be separate, unique.
“Your perspective is quite oblique.”
True, but they say it’s inevitable
And becoming is so undeniable,
That now, when I look into me
More and more it is him that I see.



p.s. of course I am and he wouldn't want it any other way, a knock-off.

The girls today in society go for classical poetry
So to win their hearts one must quote with ease
Aeschylus and Euripides
One must know Homer, and believe me, Beau
Sophocles, also Sappho-ho
Unless you know Shelley and Keats and Pope
Dainty Debbies will call you a dope


But the poet of them all
Who will start 'em simply ravin'
Is the poet people call
The Bard of Stratford on Avon



Brush up your Shakespeare
Start quoting him now
Brush up your Shakespeare
And the women you will wow



Just declaim a few lines from Othella
And they'll think you're a hell of a fella
If your blonde won't respond when you flatter 'er
Tell her what Tony told Cleopatterer

If she fights when her clothes you are mussing
What are clothes? Much ado about nussing
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kow-tow


With the wife of the British ambessida
Try a crack out of Troilus and Cressida
If she says she won't buy it or tike it
Make her tike it, what's more As You Like It

If she says your behavior is heinous
Kick her right in the Coriolanus
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kow-tow


If you can't be a ham and do Hamlet
They will not give a damn or a damlet
Just recite an occasional sonnet
And your lap'll have honey upon it

When your baby is pleading for pleasure
Let her sample your Measure for Measure
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kow-tow - Forsooth
And they'll all kow-tow - I' faith
And they'll all kow-tow




Better mention "The Merchant Of Venice"
When her sweet pound o' flesh you would menace
If her virtue, at first, she defends---well
Just remind her that "All's Well That Ends Well"

And if still she won't give you a bonus
You know what Venus got from Adonis
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kow-tow - Thinkst thou?
And they'll all kow-tow - Odds bodkins
And they'll all kow-tow



If your goil is a Washington Heights dream
Treat the kid to "A Midsummer Night's Dream"
If she then wants an all-by-herself night
Let her rest ev'ry 'leventh or "Twelfth Night"

If because of your heat she gets huffy
Simply play on and "Lay on, Macduffy!"
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kow-tow - Forsooth
And they'll all kow-tow - Thinkst thou?
And they'll all kow-tow - We trou'
And they'll all kow-tow

Night, J :) Greetings to L!

Original Punk J said...

Sorry Miranth, didn't mean to leave you out! Goodnight. No, actually, my Dad read a lot of Westerns, historical fiction (John Jakes, etc.), and I guess you'd call them "war thrillers" like Clive Cussler and Robert Ludlum. I go for psych thrillers, mysteries, S. King, D. Koontz, L. Hamilton. But I know exactly what I'd buy him if I could. :)

Hope your memories were fond ones.

Mayo,

Thanks for the new post; your tribute to Daddy Mayo is really good. Hope your Father's Day was a jappy one for all involved. Take care of your Dad, Mayo, he's the only one you'll ever have.

Hugs and kisses to Daddy Mayo, from me.

Take care, my friend. Love to you.

Not sure yet about the bongos or the percussion set, Miranth. I may think on it for a bit and give it to him as a Christmas gift.

aahh, i can't help it, you know. i love shakespeare.

first read him when i was eleven, reading romeo & juliet out loud to my friends, and macbeth to myself for the witches.

he was my first drug. *grin*

miranth said...

Goodnight cuppy, sleep well :)

miranth said...

TJ - While I like some classical reading from time to time, I was never that interested in Shakespeare, however your enthusiasm (and excellent selections to quote) are helping me gain an appreciation!

Original Punk J said...

Dear SS.

Hope your Father's Day was a jappy one also. Like I told Mayo, take time to enjoy Daddy SS; our time together on Earth is so short, and before you know it, it's over.

Please also give Daddy SS hugs and kisses from me. I've had to hold on to all of mine for 20 years, they're building up. :/

Lastly, the one thing I think I could safely say tonight is:

LINOLEUM.

Yeah, you know what I mean. *winks*

Goodnight, baby. Love to you.

In Times Of
by Kit McCallum
******************
My soul drifts aimlessly in times of hopelessness.
It searches tirelessly for meaning and truth ...
Yet finds no direction.

My heart bleeds quietly in times of loneliness.
It yearns to find warmth and happiness ...
Yet it somehow eludes me.

My eyes seek out visions in times of want.
They gaze endlessly through the blackness that envelops them ...
Yet they cannot see the light.

My ears listen earnestly in times of silence.
They search for familiar sounds to comfort and console ...
Yet they cannot penetrate the darkness that surrounds me.

My arms reach out frantically in times of despair.
They seek strength and compassion to enfold me ...
Yet they find nothing substantial to enwrap.

My mind cries out desperately in times of solitude.
It poses intense questions that demand answers ...
Yet there are none to be found.

***

My hand reaches out earnestly in these times of confusion.
It dials the number of a familiar and calming voice ...
And gratefully, my lifeline to sanity ... remains intact.

can't spin a ramble for you tonight, i'm afraid, i've lingered too long as it is!

time spent here is never regretted.

this is one of those places i can call my heart's home.

Morning Mayo, TJ, Miranth & lurkers!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. I've got my brother staying with me as he's currently in between trips to Asia - he's already done Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, etc... and heads out to Japan/Siberia next month - and he's driving me insane. I'm a bit of a 'Monica' when it comes to housework whereas he hasn't had to do any washing up or laundry for 4 months so he leaves it lying about knowing that I'll eventually crack and do it for him, grrr... On the positive side, I'm 1lb under my target weight so I can ease the frustration by finally eating that tub of Pralines & Cream I've been keeping in the freezer.

'Hello' to all who follow,

Kass xx

Hi Ergo,

Well he's a computer nerd by trade and mine's just gone horribly wrong so at least I'll get some kind of use out of him! He's also spray painting his car on my driveway so I also have lots of black patches all over my nice clean tarmac. Can't live with 'em, can't actually kill 'em...

elena said...

Mayo

Thank you for the new post. Your words are a touching tribute.

I realized something today that I wanted to share with you. My Dad was an incredible storyteller. No, he didn’t write and he only read one book in his whole life. Seriously, one book and for the life of me I can’t remember what that book was. He hated to read. He said he couldn’t concentrate on the words for too long before they would start to blur and his mind would wander. The first time he told me he’d only read one book I laughed and didn’t believe him. To me the idea of not reading is well, unbelievable. But he was dead serious. But here’s the thing Mayo…I hate that I can’t remember what the book was. I mean really one damn book and I can’t remember the title. I hate that I can’t remember. I hate that he told me so many stories about his childhood and that I can only remember bits and pieces. Why didn’t I pay more attention? My father’s life was colorful and so damn interesting. I remember he told me about catching rabbit fever as a boy and almost dying. I remember he told me how he used to deliver huge blocks of ice when he was a teen. (No such thing as air conditioning back then). He told me about walking down to the Kaw River and walking into quick sand. He was always skipping school to spend his days down at the river. To him living life was so much more important than sitting in a classroom. He was a Huckleberry Finn sorta guy. See I do remember parts of the stories but not all the details. And now I realize that had I just taken the time to listen closely I would be able to write these stores down for my girls. But I didn’t. So now I only have partial stories in my head and a sick feeling in my soul for what was lost.

Mayo, pay attention to what your dad says. It’s so easy to drift off when a story is being told because you just think to yourself that you can ask again later for details. But sometimes you can’t. Time gets away and people leave you. That is when you think of all the things you should have asked. All the questions that can never be answered haunt you. I wish I’d listened more, I wish I’d taken the time. His stories were of a different time that is lost to us now. His voice could have lived on in words. Death silenced his voice. My lack of attention silenced the words that could have gone on speaking to future generations. I’m sorry Dad.

Night Mayo

Elena

Good morning/afternoon/night Mayo, SS, Elena, Miranth, Kass, Ergo, FASC, Possum, RW, J, TJ, Fred, Alicia, CUPCAKE!!!!, anons, lurkers, watchers...everyone!

How are you all today? A little better than yesterday, I hope.

Mayo: As always, thank you for the new room/painting/puzzle piece...
A knock off? How about thinking of yourself as the new and improved version? It could happen. Just a suggestion!

Elena: *hugs*

I have not properly caught up. Sorry if I missed any important happenings.

To ponder today (because Mayo is bringing lyrics to my mind once again):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Recusant
Ray Tarantino

How does it feel
When what you need is what you lost?
And still tell a lie
Because you get it wrong again.

How does it feel
To kiss a falling angel
When the tear on her face
Feels like poison in your vein?

Send your soul
One step ahead of your mind
Overcome life when over refined
There’s no disease within your kind
Or medicine you will find
You’re a recusant inside

It’s another day
So take a further look
Behind the words that you wont hear
Sketching consequences you won’t fear.

Now phoney certainty has the sound of a thousand lies
Like voices crying from a distant land
Where everybody looks the same
And every feeling feels the same

You want to take a look
Take a look, take a look at what your are
Take a look, take a look
Take a look inside, inside

Send your soul
One step ahead of your mind…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Recusant??? I think I prefer rebel, nonconformist or (best of all) bohemian! But, that's just me. ;)

I hope you all have a slightly (or more if you wish) unconventional Monday!

Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

'Goodnight' Sorry I didn't catch up, as I am tired - too much socialization...

elena I think many of us can relate to that sentiment. I know I wish I had taken more time and asked about everything, including the painful stuff, like the war (II) but I didn't want to mention anything painful and now I wish I had. He could have refused to answer, after all... And I think, I would have understood him better. I was only 20 when he died, but at least I had that much time, if only I had used it to better purpose. Hopefully others won't. :)

ergo I am glad to hear it, but sorry its so cold where you are!

RW Sorry I missed you! I hope you found an instrument that your nephew would like!

Mayo - I had a wonderful weekend! I hope you did, too :) Now I am very tired, however, as my friend's band was up first, at noon, for the Harley Festival - sometimes I stay here too late!

I gave my response about fathers day on the last page. I hope you're not considering emulating anyone else? I know I detected the faint whiff of a double entendre just there. :) But perhaps that's just me, noting connections between ideas, as I do. ;)

Days of the New headlined the festival I attended, and finding that all of us (with varied musical interests) enjoyed their music (YAY!) I decided to speak to the available band members after the show. For a very short time, I spoke with Taylor about varied cultural influences on their music and he provided a means for me to contact him to continue the discussion. I realized that I hadn't gotten his autograph and he signed for me. 'T-BONE' I laughed when I looked at it later, as we once had a visitor, here, named t-bone :) Perhaps I'll ask him if he's related, when next we speak. :) Apologies if someone else already mentioned this. T-bone was probably triston using an alias, but I enjoy discovering patterns in life, whether related in context or not. In this case, linking this sphere with real life, at least in the laughter it garnered me, even if no pertinent association actually exists. :)

BTW, he loves Dead Can Dance, as well. Hmmmm, I wonder how I can associate that influence with the blogosphere? :)

I suppose everything is subject to interpretation ;) in this case, literally! *laughing*

PS - I did notice that no one gave an opinion about social expectations encouraging conformity. Maybe I should take my question to a blog about education as this one is more appropriately focussed on literary discourse, despite its social aspects.

I am very tired now and will try to make it back here as I can, but I may be attending my niece at the hospital. Any positive thoughts are appreciated and, I believe, may have some influence. Thank you :)

==============================

Lovelies, I hope everyone enjoyed pleasant thoughts of their fathers (and father figures) yesterday!

hello family!

hi kass, miranth and wendy.

wendy i loved your poem for your dad yesterday! really lovely.

kass it must be fun having your brother stay with you though! i am a tidy freak and i live with a messy bastard and 3 messy kids! i am constantly pissed off about that! the weekends are the worst.....strewn out mess!! i hate it! my brother is obsessively tidy like me! a trait we got from my dad so i am told!
when i had baby no. 3 my mum came up for a week to look after my 2 girls....take them to school and nursery whilst i sat on the sofa with baby attached to breast!! all the fucking time! slowly my house became messier and messier. my mum made my dining room table look like her's at home! quite a feat! just lots of things placed on it in some random order! i was boiling with rage and wanted to tidy, alas breast feeding in the early days is unbelievably time consuming!! (trust me on this...horrendous!) i am not a sitter down, i'm always on the move! so i was glad when my mum went home, the baby got a bottle and my house was tidy again!!

right well hello to anyone arriving soon.

PP i haven't been around with you in ages....i miss you crazy chick!!

have fast moving mondays everyone!

love to you all!

Smoke said...

One last thing before I go. This is what I am already singing this morning and I want somebody to sing it with me. Mayo, how about it? Wanna sing with me? Do you like The Killers? Awwwwww, who doesn't? ^_^



"Under The Gun"

She's got her halo and wings
Hidden under his eyes
But she's an angel for sure
She just can't stop telling lies
But it's too late for his love
Already caught in a trap
His angel's kiss was a joke
And she is not coming back

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now

Yeah she's got a criminal mind
He's got a reason to pray
His life is under the gun
He's got to hold every day

Now he just wants to wake up
Yeah, just to prove it's a dream
Cause she's an angel for sure
But that remains to be seen

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now

Stupid on the streets of London
James Dean in the rain
Without her it's not the same
The same, the same, but it's alright

Because heaven sends and heaven takes
Crashing cars in his brain
Keep him tied up to a dream
And only she can set him free
And then he says to me

Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Kill me now, kill me now, kill me now, kill me now
Again and again


Later taters. For real, this time.

sdock10 said...

Smoke,

That's freaky indeed because I woke up singing "Tranquilize". Must be Killers kind of Monday.

Is that good or bad? Is it too early to tell?

Anyhooo.....

Let's just try today. Okay? That's all we can do. Try.

wow this is a late post for me, but it gets busy at night with dinner and everything.
Sorry I just kind of disappear sometimes, but it's hard to get back to the computer. We had some of our new meat for dinner and I must say we grow mighty fine beef!

Mayo paying tribute to your father is a lovely thing to do, they are often very special men in peoples lives. Being a father is such an important life choice, it's such a shame it's often taken so flippantly. Being a father is so much more than genetics, it's being a role model, a guide, a source of loving discipline. And whether a person has a blood relationship to the person they see as filling that role is irrelevant. It transcends that.But as it would be for you a male, with your father, the day you say something and your brain realises you sound just like your mother (father) is a scary one! I think that is really the sign you've grown up whether you wanted to or not!First time I did it was to a student, not even a child of my own and my whole brain freaked out.
So wishing you fabulous times with family, wonderful memories to treasure, strong standards to live up to and all the best qualities of your father.
Much love EP xx

SS haven't (knowingly) heard from you for a while, hope you are well. It would also be a time you're recalling your concepts of fatherhood and I'm hoping you've had a wonderful experience of it in your past which will help you to be another shining example of it into your future.Sending you the warmth of loving family, the depth of abiding relationships and the comfort of true friends
lotsa love EP xx

goodnight blogbelieve, take care and have a great Monday.

I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life
You go in shadows
You'll come apart and you'll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there.

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then it's smiles cover your heart

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you

I think it's strange you never knew
I think it's strange you never knew
I think it's strange you never knew

although i don't like getting up to the alarm, i enjoy the early hours of the day (as much as i enjoy the late night hours, tbh. i'm not one or the other it seems when it comes to being a night owl or a morning person!), and i enjoy spending them sitting hereat your place, mayo, wandering out to email and the internet and then coming back to partake of your excellent coffee.

it's a very good way to start a day.

but now the caffeine and my morning dose of tbp has got me sufficiently amped to tackle the world outside (i hope!) -- i don't think i'll be playing on the blog from work as much as i did last friday, so i'll say adieu until tonight!

For My Friend.
Thank You Dolphin!

A person sits on one side of the world alone and broken-hearted.
Another person plays happily on the other side.
The first prays a silent prayer for guidance
While the other is bouncing around without a care
These two beings not knowing the other share the same qualities.

A prayer is heard of a sad soul searching
A friend reaches out to another
A kind, gentle soul strives to help the lost being
A troubled mind needs to be put at ease.

A dolphin swims while the falcon flies
A serene being vs. the unknowing soul
The falcon falls
T'is the dolphin that shall save it
The dolphin gives the falcon the courage
The falcon tries to stand but fails
The dolphin pushes the falcon to its feet
The falcon stands knowing the dolphin will catch it.

The troubled becomes understood
The worried becomes calm
He who flies shall never fall far
For a friend will catch him.

A person sits alone on one side of the world broken-hearted
Another plays happily on the other side
The first begins to understand
The second already knows
These two beings not knowing each other have helped the other.

Say all the things I want to hear
So speak low,
Oh baby baby drink the poison
We can disappear, away, away from here
Can you hear?
Whisper softly in your ear,
We will never, ever know

The day after my fourteenth birthday Anon,
I'm so sorry. No matter how much of a drunk he was, that was a terrible thing for you to go through *hugs*

People here should show more sensitivity when wishing happy father's day, and talking about certain subjects that are distressful to others.

Thanks TJ,Anon and MJ for replying to this so thoughtfully. I'm aware so many visitors to Mayo's are sadly without their Fathers, but there are many still with them. Listening to those without, reminds those with, to tell their Dads how much they mean to them...if they do.

It is a gift inspired from Fathers passed, to Fathers present.

Father's day is one of those holidays that carries a lot of baggage for me. So, parts were really good and relaxing and other parts I wanted to brain someone. I would've settled for less than extraoridinary.

I totally feel you. Saturday was worse for me I think. Needless to say, I got a little overwhelmed with thoughts, and had a really bad attitude towards the whole thing. So, yep, I completely understand.

Hopefully the really good, relaxing moments outweighed the not so good ones, yeah?

Jennicula said...

Saturday was a good day for me. I caught a few sun rays, ate well, and relaxed. Sunday was a different story. I managed to not cry, throw things, or even curse. So, I guess it was better this year even though circumstances were worse. (If that explaines anything at all)

Cat yack on my pillow - it's so yucky
Cat yack on the floor - can make me slide
Cat yack on the carpet - looks so lumpy
Cat yack, almost always - makes me sigh

if i had a food that i could give you
to keep you from barfing, it'd make my day
if i had a pill that i could give to you
i'd give you the pill and make you okay

Cat yack on my couch - isn't funny
Cat yack on my bed - can make me cry
Cat yack in your water - looks so runny
Cat yack almost always - makes me sigh

if i had a bowl that i could give to you
I'd teach you how to use it instead of my shoe
if i had a wish that i could wish for you
i'd make a wish for no cat yack, like you'd have a clue

Cat yack on my towel - makes me angry
Cat yack on my toes - can make me cry
Cat yack on my chair - looks so chunky
Cat yack, almost always - makes me sigh
Cat yack almost all the times makes me sigh

Now, back to work.

Aww man, my beautiful oriole died. That blows. That brings me down to 14 birds I think. One of the TITMICE looks a little runty and weird, and everyday I expect to find him dead, and everyday he keeps popping up for food.

Today I went to the chiropractor with Mummy K because we go there together like twice a month or so. We took Tonin, the red Elantra (in other words my car,) and Meleli'e (my iPod) died and on a whim I popped in Three Cheers. There will never come a day when I don't recognize it for the brilliant piece of art that it is, from the first second to the last. There's nothing really skippable on it. Everytime I hear it I want so badly to go back to making that goddamn stupid movie I was doign with my friends and fellow MCR fans (and some people who hated MCR but wanted to be in an MCR movie anyway ^_^ ) I babbled to Mummy K the whole way about, "And at this part I had this great idea where we would (blah blah dicker blah,)" and Mummy K said, "You should still make the movie."

>_<

It's an amazing album and I just want to take Gerard by the ankles, hang him upside down and shake him until all the female-insulting, Jimmy Urine wannabe, sharpie-love, Frank-throwing, MSI-plugging, chimp-renting, lying, ridiculous psychodrama crap falls out of him.

Okay you guys, hold up. I'm about to write out my horrifying dream I had last night that made me wake up crying like a little emo bitch.

Anonymous said...

Well, there were all kinds of details like me going back to college, my friend Jeremy running into my bathroom (looking like he did when I was in college,) and weird stuff like that. But the crux of the dream is this:

Dinosaurs were doing their whole "roaming the earth" thing again. Of note: I often dream of being chased by the T. Rex. No, not the awesome 70's band whose entire catalog of albums I still own, but the actual dinosaur. These dreams scare the everloving Christ out of me every time. The T Rex is always, well, as huge as they probably were, and like in Jurassic Park, their vision is based on movement in all of my dreams and I always have to fight the urge to run while one is breathing in my face.

So the earth was being taken over by dinosaurs in my dream, and there was epic, blockbuster mayhem like city blocks destroyed, fires, cars crushed, floods, it was biblical.

I was running away from a T Rex (duh,) when I saw a brontosaurus standing in the middle of the road with its foot on top of a car. Someone shouted to me that water killed them, so I needed to get a hose and stick it in its mouth. This I somehow managed to do. I ran past the brontosaurus and I stuck a hose in its mouth, then I ran away.

As I was running, I was thinking, "That brontosaurus wasn't really doing anything but standing there; I think it had its foot on the car by accident." I started to feel really bad.

Then the brontosaurus called after me, "Mama?" and it started making all these baby animal noises.

My heart totally broke and I went running back to turn the water off, but by the time I got there the brontosaurus was dead.

So, yeah, I woke up bawling my stupid eyes out.

Anonymous said...

Wow. That's crazy! It must have been the baby voices that go to you, huh? That would kill me.

Anonymous said...

*got to you

Anonymous said...

It was when it said "Mama" and I thought, "Oh jeez, it's just looking for its mommy and it doesn't even know that I'm trying to kill it."

Once I saw it dead, I decided to wake up. I'm glad I can do that, when dreams get too awful. I can just go, "Wow, this is too terrible to be real. Time to wake up and take a pee."

Anonymous said...

Yes, I find myself doing that, too. That is when I actually have a dream and the dream is bad.

I just normally jerk myself awake, or my dream makes me fall or something, then I wake up.

Anonymous said...

I know this is totally off topic, or maybe not so much, but I think when we hit the "A Lucid Transaction" post, everyone loosened up and we all melded together. I think that's when we all "got it." It was like the first time we all just said "Fuck it," and we all kind of started barfing everywhere.

Okay, sorry for the visual. I'll shut up now. :)

Anonymous said...

Mustard! Kapunua! I'm bored.

I had a dream the other night that I kinda somewhat remember. Some of the local doctors in town had done something like really bad and I knew about it and they were scared I was gonna tell on them so they all started sending me checks. I was soooooo happy. Then I woke up and I was pissed off when I realized I really didn't have all that money.

Anonymous said...

LOL Princess! See, you have a criminal mind. ;D Just kidding. ^_^

SOmetimes I also have dreams that I managed to get huge amounts of money, and I start paying everything off and I wake up and I'm like, "Well, damn."

I realized why I had that dream last night. Yesterday I was looking at my hibiscus plants and I saw some inch worms on them and I was like, "Aww, inch worms!" Then I noticed that they had already eaten about a quarter of the plant. My hibiscus is glorious; I've had it for about five years and it gets flowers the size of dinnerplates, literally. And last year it got eaten and I feared for it even returning this year. So I didn't have any choice but to spray soap on it, which killed the inch worms. I felt really bad about it.

I think that's why I had that dream.

Anonymous said...

There are a few things that give me a really specific kind of sadness, totally a pathos kind of sadness. And it's usually when things that are supposed to be gross, or scary, or tough, or otherwise not really considered cute, are being tormented. Baby versions of those things, for instance. Like baby reptiles, and I guess dinosaurs ( O_O ) and this one time when I worked at the animal hospital we had a baby kestrel and its ribs were crushed--I wanted to put it to sleep but my ex boss wanted to x ray it--and it kept making all these really sad, painful noises. I actually had to go hide in the x ray room and cry like a sissy. (Which is one thing you never, ever did at that job.)

The other thing--and I think we talked about this once before, Splash--oddly enough is fallen food, especially ice cream. Once anyone drops their food, but most especially drops their ice cream, I really have to fight not to cry.

How weird is that? O_O

Anonymous said...

I know it's not funny but I've taken my headache meds and everything is funny right now. I'm sorry! I never dream about food. Huh. I wonder why? That dream made me so mad because I was already spending the money.

I just had to call this lady and ask her if she had an updated address and the girl who answered the phone said, "Hold on." and it sounded like she had to walk a mile to give the phone to this person and when she got on the phone she said, "I don't have any bills." and I said, "Ummm, yeah, you do." and she said, "Oh, that lady don't live here no more. She used to borrow my phone number."

O_O

Uh-huh. Yeah, right. Do you think I'm an idiot? Obviously. >_<

What's everybody here's opinion of Eliza and LynZ's intelligence? I want to know because you all seem to like or used to like MCR, and Eliza made a fool of herself with the story about her and "Paul" and LynZ isn't looking too smart lately either. If you don't want to say it or whatever you can even tell it anonymously. I'm really curious. I think they're both pretty stupid and I'm wondering how Gerard who is supposed to be pretty smart, can be in long term relationships with women who can't even carry on a conversation at an adult level.

I don't know much about Kat but what do you guys think about her? Do you think she was a dummy too?

Um, so why didn't anyone ask if Mayo was a father himself last night?

Nothing stopped most of you before to ask personal questions.
Everyone just assume he wasn't?

Anonymous said...

Hello, Anima! How're you doing? I hope your Da had a good Father's Day. And yourself, you hanging in there?

Anonymous said...

"Kat", or as I like to call her, Kevin, was probably higher on that smart scale than his other "girlfriends".

Anonymous said...

3:52, I didn't ask 'cause I was sleepy, but it's a good question. I suppose I assumed that Mayo didn't have any kids because I expect that by now he would have mentioned them, like he has mentioned his wife in the past. Also, at the 6 month mark of this blog, I got the idea that he'd only been married for about a year or so (I'm not very mathy so that could be off, but I was pretty sure it was a year or close to a year,) and I guess while it is possible that he'd have a kid by then--and who's to say you have to be married to have one anyway--it didn't seem likely.

So Mayo, you got any kids or what? If so, what flavor?

3:45, well, Eliza sure didn't do herself any favors, but all she really proved with her "story" was that she is a horrendous writer and has a lot of baggage. I guess you can be intelligent and be a horrendous writer. Err, I guess. She didn't come off too bright, anyway.

As far as Lindsey goes (sorry, I hate scene names,) the best I can do is assume that she gets nervous in interviews. I say "like" a lot too when I get nervous.

I absolutely disagree with everything she says and everything she stands for. I suspect she was trying to talk about third wave feminism when she was talking about a woman's right to dress however the hell you want, show your cooter to the world and not get called names and not be treated badly and I actually agree with that. I think a gal should be allowed to walk down the street wearing a string and not get touched or shouted at. I know it's never going to happen, but that's what I believe. I also devoutly agree that a woman should not be defined by who she marries.

If Lindsey actually lived by any of those things she talked about, I would think that was great. But she does want to be known for who her husband is, and you really can't claim any "wave" of feminism when A) your songs are derogatory to women and little girls (and, for godsakes different races!) and when you think it's cool to ride on your famous husband's coat-tails.

I can't speak for the intelligence of those actions and choices, but I do disagree with them.

She's probably a good visual artist though, if she was having art shows. And she could be real nice (chimp-renting aside--again, maybe that was some kind of animal charity thing or maybe they don't understand how cruel and exploitative that is--benefit of the doubt.) And she's certainly a beautiful girl.

That's my mana'o, I guess.

anima said...

Anon, I have asked Mayo before if he had children. He never answered. Unless he answers a question specifically we usually assume it is not the case. Just like when he said he was married. Had he not answered, we would probably assume that he wasn't.

Hi Kapunua! My pops had a wonderful Fathers' Day. And I must say, my parents enjoyed the DVD I made them for their anniversary. They watched it again by themselves yesterday. :) We found out that the cancer has spread this his brain stem. Bummmer huh?

Okay, well so far I've got the typical anti-anxiety herbs: St. John's Wort, Chamomile and (this one is a little more hardcore and harder to find,) kava-kava. They are all mood-lifters, though kava-kava is a pretty strong depressant. I took kava-kava once and I honestly don't remember the rest of the night. Use caution with this one: it is illegal in some places, and otherwise very hard to find. Overuse can cause skin-breakouts and liver damage--of course that's if you live on the stuff.

If you find it in tea form, go for naturally decaf. Make sure it's naturally decaf, because some processes use


(Ummm, okay, the medical nerd is having a total brain shut-down. WTF do they put into dead bodies and use to store samples? Oh my god, I can smell it but I can't think fo the name.)

Anyway some decaf processes use that to get the caffeine out.

here are some tips I found. They sound very naive and pollynanna in the face of addiction, but maybe something will catch on?

How to Quit Smoking with Natural Treatments

* Home remedy to quit smoking: Put mustard seeds on the lungs and tape them with plaster, also rub the spot.
* Drink a lot of water, that will help you to quit smoking and will clean your body from the toxic.
* Every time you have the urge to smoke, put some salt of the tip of your tongue. Repeat for 1-2 month.
* Natural treatment to quit smoking: When you feel an urge to smoke, take a gum or a candy.
* Drink a lot of celery juice and carrot juice, that will reduce the urge for cigarettes.
* Work out daily.

I can't give an opinion on "Kat" as I know nothing about her.

I can't really give one on Eliza either. The only thing I know about her is her "Emma and Paul" story.

The most I can say about Jamia is I respect her for being able to live the life she has lived being with Frank. I can only imagine it takes a lot of strength, courage, and probably faith above all to be able to do it. Additionally, I think it's quite respectable that she's co-running a flourishing company, and would probably be a good example of someone a kid could "look up to."

Lindsey I know nothing about aside from her band. Go figure. I don't think she's respectable at all, not for her "music," not for her abilities, not for her band, not for her band placement, not for anything.

Those are my only opinions.

Hi RW!

Kapunua, thanks so much for those tips! Are you think of formaldehyde?

Princess, yup Mustard is hella funny. All of you are!!!

Good Evening All,

Way-hey! I have my (ever so truculent) broadband back, so I thought I'd pop by.

"I took kava-kava once and I honestly don't remember the rest of the night. Use caution with this one: it is illegal in some places."

Sadly, one of them being the European Union. I found it to be a most efficacious sleeping aid; plus if you take too much it had a mild paralytic effect, which is quite fun if you're weird like me.

And honestly, can't a girl have PMS without people casting aspersions on her entire character? Jamea may well be the conduit through which Beelzebub and his hordes of mischievious pixies enter the mortal realm, but we'll never know because Frank hasn't made it his mission to shove her as far down the fans' throats as his arms can reach...

If she was any sweeter she would make sugar taste like salt.

Hey Kass!

Well I'll tell ya, I've got me some kava kava so I can hook you up. ;D It has become very hard to find though, and like I said I only drank it once. An entire night, gone!

amea may well be the conduit through which Beelzebub and his hordes of mischievious pixies enter the mortal realm,

Oh man, that'd be so cool.

Hi Lucy Lu! You and Solly were in my dream Friday night. And I have no idea what you even look like! But it was you! Some bizarro scenario that involved us at a coffee shop then some other random stuff that made no sense. ^_^

4:32, my logic circuits must have gotten wet because it took me a second to figure out if you were a nice anon, or mean.

Sweet like stevia sweet?

Stevia's going to be the new thing in sweeteners, you guys. Keep your eyes and ears open. It's coming!

Kass! I ♥ you!

Just wanted to let you know! ^_^

Okay, really gone now.

FORMALDEHYDE! Thanks, Anima. That's the stuff. They put it on the leather seats of cars, too.

"I can't really give one on Eliza either. The only thing I know about her is her "Emma and Paul" story."


The other thing you know about her is that she's slightly less delusional than Lyn-Z, in that she knows exactly what she's 'famous' for!

Mustard! Hi!

Kapunua,
They put formaldehyde in nail polish too. It burns me like fire!. I always have to check the label before I buy a new color.

You guys are reminding me that I need to paint my toesies.

Kassiopeia said...

OK, so 'Hellos' to Star, Kapunua, MIB, Smoke, Anima, Lucy Lu & Anon(s)!

I ♥ U all 2, for providing me with entertaining reading matter to accompany my breaktime lattes and lunchtime soup and salads.

And now it's getting near my bedtime as I'm going to be up early tomorrow. Or at least I intend to be!

Have a great night y'all,

Kass xx

Yeah, and there's some other toxin in nail polish and nail polish remover that I was reading about, too. I forget what it is though. They sell "safe" nail polish but it's hard to find.

And oh my gosh, hair dye, let's not even get into that. There's a hair dye / lymphoma connection, you know.

Kass, I hope if you dream of those pixie minions, they are entertaining rather than terrifying. Good night! ^_^

This may be totally naive of me to ask, but wouldn't it be a whole lot easier to set nation-wide, if not world-wide, standards for products like nail polish and dyes and bug killers and things of that nature?

Wouldn't it be easier to just make the stuff safe?

Hiya Star!

Well my friends, I must get back to finishing up some of this work.

Nice to see all of you. :)


Hope to be around soon.



P.S. Have I told you guys lately how much I ♥ you? Well, I do, like a whole bunch.

Mayo, thanks for this new post. I hope you got to spend some time with your family this weekend. *hugs*
