Drill Bit
Tuesday I hear it’s going around;
I’m off...again, knuckled white.
Wednesday I will talk myself into
Round about routes to denial.
If I say it, then it won’t come true.
And, I find comfortable restraint; bound to
Repeating it over and over and over. And again,
It feels better that way, medicated meditation.
Then Thursday everything is white. I eat
From a bland full service spectrum buffet,
Plated and nothing touches.
I won’t even sip from her cup.
By Friday I am unable to tolerate human contact.
And, I count back to the last
In order to find spared time. I’ll be free-
On Saturday what is in the air will kill me.
So, I hold my breath between rooms. Suffocated,
Sunday I become completely restricted.
I will not accept from anyone, anything
That has been anywhere other than here.
Those days, they wear me hard
And to the end, so I have become
Exhausted from the fight. I finally sleep.
Then Monday brings me back, slightly.
With a negligent handshake,
So that again Tuesday I am found,
Wringing dry, anticeptic hands.
I will not allow myself to open a door
I stay; refusal and restraint, withholding.
p.s. its got quite a grip.

MJ not only doesn't make sense, she can't even make WORDS usually.
And Amyranth telling people to stop bringing things up is pure irony.
Wait on second thought Amyranth telling people what to do and what not to do is normal.

She can't make WORDS
LOLOLOL! Did she get a job with Webster's?
You're just so brilliant anon!
You're just jealous cause MJ made Mayo hot. That's it. That's when you started attacking her isn't it? Admit it. Come on. WE know you can do it. Confess.
MJ stole Kapu's man. She made him HOT. That is unforgivable. WE must run MJ off of the blog. WE can't have Mayo giving attention to anyone who doesn't kiss our asses. Do you people have any idea how obvious you are?
MJ, you just have your favorites and it is impossible to reason with you. You see bad in the porches and only good in these people.
Sorry anon I had an important appointment with the toilet. Had I been able to print out your comment I would have used it to wipe my ass.
I will clarify this for you I have no favorites. I will talk to who ever will talk to me. And I will stick up for them as well. I will also point out when I think what they have said is wrong. Usually I try to do it in private.

The third funniest thing I've ever read here.
Someone who obviously has no understanding of basic English language skills trying to put down MJ. Hilarious.
Leave Martha alone or sign in and own it. Come on, I will if you will.

MJ - 4
Kapu "anon"- 0
Hi 10:14. They won't sign in. They're hiding their asses. If I were them
I would be too.
Too bad, it would have made for one Hell of a surprise.
10:14
Thank you 10.10 and 10.14
All I managed was to be ignored.
My pleasure anyway.
10:14
To the anon who said I can't make words,
Will you be visiting me over at VV's as well?
10.14 Why don't you come on over to 7's We can have fun there.
And thank you again
You're not being ignored 10:14. I am. I'm going cry. Maybe I'll write a poor me, feel sorry for me, sob story. I'm leaving now. I hate you all.
^_~
Except for MJ. I don't hate MJ. She talked to me.
^_~
Ahem, checkmate to MJ.
And with that, I'll go to bed now.
Goodnight everyone.
Why would they want to leave? I was willing to engage them in riveting conversation with "WORDS" they might enjoy. I even offered to own those "WORDS" by name.
Now, I'm just disappointed. What kind of bully are they?
(That's rhetorical for those who don't get it.)
goodnight Amy sweet dreams
Goodnight Amy
Sorry about that 10.10 and 10.14 I am so dull and draining that I drove them away. ;)
What's wrong with having favorites, anyway?
In a public commons as this has become, everyone can't become best chums with everyone else....
oh no MJ is your dull drainingness on a rampage again!!!!

March 3, 2009 10:51 PM
It wasn't about being best buddies. The anon was trying to say that I was only standing up for the people here because they were my favorites.
I don't have favorites I have people I get along with better than others.
Lol ep come on over to 7's
I want a riveting conversation with "WORDS" I might enjoy. Hell. Nobody wants to engage me.
Except MJ. MJ is MY favorite now.
'Nite Amy.
After the comment at 10:51
EP is my second favorite.
I still hate the rest of you.
Amy is my third favorite. She said "goodnight everyone". I'm ASSuming that includes me. Yes. She's third.
The rest of you are still on my shit list.
;)
Truman: [to an unseen Christof] Who are you?
Christof: [voice-over] I am The Creator - of a television show that gives hope and joy and inspiration to millions.
Truman: Then who am I?
Christof: You're the star.
Truman: Was nothing real?
Christof: You were real. That's what made you so good to watch.
This whole thing has been the online equivalent of The Truman Show, from day one.
Mayo is Christof. Most of the posters are Truman. The rest are clued-in extras and a small contingent of common internet sociopaths. Some of you already suspect this. If you recognize yourself, keep heading for the blue wall on the horizon. Beyond it lies the truth. If you require (or simply desire) an alternate reality, fabricate one of your own design, populate it with whomever you choose and refuse to exploit the inhabitants. There can be no honest unreality without abundant consideration for the vulnerable and an equal footing for all participants. Liberate yourself. The home viewers are rooting for you. I am rooting for you.
:) MJ
Goodnite all.
*heads for the blue wall and runs into solid matter*
>_<
11:13
You know what list you're on now don't you? ^_~
'Nite!
If you recognize yourself, keep heading for the blue wall on the horizon.
that made me grin.
Goodnight 10.10
I hated the Truman show. Everyone was going on about how great it was. I was disappointed.
lol anon
I thought the Truman show was really clever, but I could see why people wouldn't have liked it too.
but the concept was interesting,
however to Truman it was his whole life, there lies at least for me, the difference
hi Tj how was work? Any interesting things like wet kitty prints today?
i liked the truman show alot. but then, that's typical for me.
hi martha, hello ergo. not much hapened that was too noteworthy, ergo -- but the last two days we've been working on a nice old lady's house. she's in her 80's and is helping us move furniture. she's really something else!
i want to be like her when i'm her age. :)
*waves to lurkers*
goodnight 10:10
11:13, you get to be on my fave anons list, I think you are onto something. Just sticking my head in on my way to bed. Hope everyone is doing well.
TJ
wanting to be is the beginning of becoming
keep her in the back of your mind and you're on your way :]
hello Carrie, how's your week been so far?
Hello Carrie, Ep and Tj I am back to 7's
Ergo, aside from the ass kicking you are giving me in Scrabble, oops, I mean Lexulous, it's been pretty ok. :) It's so cool that you got the part time gig, even if it means dealing with the occasional poop head teen.
see you later martha, hello carrie. :)
too right, ergo. i shall do just that.
And hey Martha and TJ too. But my bye is coming right behind, I really am on my way to bed. I got home from work a couple hours ago, watched American Idol to destress, and now I'm about to drop. Night all!
gosh carrie I don't know what letters you get but I seem to get all vowels, like A U O I O E L are you getting all the consonants? I've just had lucky placement I think
thanks they are a necessary evil unfortunately. How has work been?
have a good night carrie!
Hi TJ, ergo, mj. Goodnight carrie, anon
goodnight Carrie sweet dreams
hey there bc.
sorry i don't have much to say tonight, but i kinda wanted to be here anyway. i work on my files and peek in.
oh! and i forgot to thank the anon who left me a jrock clip the other day -- unfortunately, i haven't been able to watch it here on this computer, but i saved the link and will look at it the next time i'm at a faster connection.
thank you. :)
TJ it was a pretty cool video clip, hard to describe though, but I think you'd like it when you get to see it
i know a little bit about the genre, so i'm pretty interested in getting to see it, ergo.
and now i should probably mosey off to bed. have fun with the rest of your day, ergo, and i'll see you tomorrow. :)
good night all.
Goodnight tj sweet dreams
thanks Tj you have a good wednesday
sweet dreams
mayo,
i wish i knew what to tell you tonight. i'm in that particular frame of mind where i shuffle through the day and glance at the moments but can hang on to none of them, they slip right through my grasp like slivers of glass, bright and uncatchable.
there are also questions in among them, things i wonder about but feel uncomfortable wondering out loud about them here.
and then the plans, the minutiae of my daily life. today i bought tua #4, saturday afternoon i'll be sitting in the movie theatre by myself, watching "watchmen", next week, a few items for my travel kits to buy.
tonight it's a tangle of threads, and in the morning it's coffee and the stain of the sun on the eastern horizon and another day, and i'm happy about that, even while i feel dissatisfaction.
i'm a writer. i see the world as everyone living out a story, including myself. but there are days that, in a book, would be a one-sentence segue, but that are just fine to live through.
no character development, no foreshadowing (er, i hope), no plot advancement.
just muddle, and breath, and the companionship of one's own thoughts, that narrator in the skull providing p.o.v.
good night mayo. i hope your tomorrow starts and ends with beauty (and that the tangle in between isn't too gordian).
Mayo and SS
tonight I want to hold up for you both the same song but give each of you a different version in both era and style
From the Partridge Family
I Think I Love You
I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
When all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knockin' at my brain.
Before I go insane
I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread:
"I think I love you!"
This morning
I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
And didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into the room.
"I think I love you!"
I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.
I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
That I've never felt this way.
wwwwhhhh
I don't know what I'm up against.
I don't know what it's all about.
I got so much to think about.
Hey, I think I love you.
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for.
I think I love you.
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
That I've never felt this way.
Believe me,
You really don't have to worry.
I only want to make you happy
And if you say,
"Hey, go away," I will
But I think better still,
I'd better stay around and love you.
Do you think I have a case?
Let me ask you to your face:
Do you think you love me?
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
I think I love you.
For Mayo the original from 1970 sung by David Cassidy, of course one of my young girl crushes and he hasn't aged too badly, still has that adorable smile
sing along
much love EP xx
and for SS
a version I loved when I heard it in 1991, and had as a single and adore singing along to
from Voice of the Beehive
sing along
lotsa love EP xx

*comes in and sees David Cassidy lyrics*
OH NO, Ergo!!!! Why? Why? Don't you remember what happened last year when BC talked about that song. I had that dang song stuck in my head for a week! POOP!!!!
*tries to calm down and get over her anger*
:P
Good morning/afternoon/night SS, Mayo, FASC, Ergo, Amy, Martha!!!, Sweetcheeks, TJ, Carrie; various anons, various lurkers and various watchers!
How is everyone? Happy and well, I hope!
Martha: It's so good to see you visiting the Mayo Mansion again!
I'll be next door in a bit (although, you're probably sleeping). I'll leave some goodies by the futon for you!
Ergo: *smooooooooch*
Elena: I hope you had fun last night ~ wherever you went!
FASC: How are you? How's the family? Any upcoming camping trips where you can drink some good stuff for me?
;)
Sweetcheeks: I'm so happy to hear you liked the Charon songs!!!! I had a feeling you would! Have a good day at school (if today is a school day)!
That is all for now. Enjoy the day/night, everyone!
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Hi PJ, Miranth, L and J, Possum, Loli and Poofed C!
Well the hills are pretty and rollin'
But the thorn is sharp and swollen
And the man plays a beautiful whistle
But he wears a prickly thistle
Singing
Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
the love cats had the cure
Battle Of Who Could Care Less lyrics
Do you not hear me anymore
I know it's cool to be so bored
I know it's not your thing to care
But it sucks me in
when you're aloof
It sucks me in, it sucks it works
I guess it's cool to be alone
Will you never rest
Fighting the battle of who
Could care less
Everyday you wake up late
Sometimes I wish I was
that way
And you think Rockford Files is cool
But there are some things
that you would change
if it were up to you
So think about your masterpiece
Watch the Rockford Files
Call to see if Paul can score some weed.
Will you never rest
Fighting the battle of who could care less
Unearned unhappiness
That's ok I guess...
I've go this great idea
Why don't we pitch it to the Franklin Fucking Mint
Fine pewter portraits of
general apathy and major boredom singing...
Whatever and ever Amen
Oh well maybe not try again
This should cheer you up for sure
See I've got your old I.D.
And you're all dressed up like the Cure
Will you never rest
fighting the battle
of who could care less
unearned unhappiness
You're my hero I confess
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
thanks for the link 10:18 they sound like they'd be a great band to see, and I never thought of the Cure as "gloom and doom' anyway. They had far too many great catchy tunes along with any slower more melancholy types. They were very creative and unique
I like those 'who could care less" lyrics too
and Imagine has always been a beautiful song
good morning all! I'm going to make a nice hot cup of coffee to wake up properly
What up Mayo...you in Fiji?
Hello peeps. How are you all today?
My foot hurts. It feels like I have been walking on marbles.
hi missT what have you done to it?
Why do birds, suddenly appear...
Everytime, you are near?
God, that's a horrible song.
awww come on Amy, it
s romantic!!
(but verging on the really sappy)
stupid Facebook :[
Hiya Ergo sweetie. I haven't done anything to it. It was just aching like mad yesterday. I thought it would be gone by today but sadly no.
Hiya Amy sweetie. Gotta agree with you on that song. Bleurgh!
Hiya MissT! Long time no see!
They play it every day at work. :B
it is really high on the old saccharine meter lol
but she did have a lovely voice
missT do you have a stone bruise on it from somewhere? or were you wearing new shoes?
Ergo, you're right. She does have a lovely voice.
But if birds kept dive bombing me when someone was around, I'd probably get my eyes checked.
Oh Amy you have my commiserations!!!!
LOL!!
It's not an every hour, on the hour thing, but it's not anything I'd like to hear once a week, let alone once a day. :P
Oh well. Just means I REALLY try to enjoy the songs that I do like when they come on.
LOL amy if you took the song as literally happening you'd be in a lot of trouble, especially when stars began falling. I think you'd want to be as far from them as possible not "close to" this poor person sort of magnetically attracting feathered missiles and huge burning balls of gas
They play it every day at work. :B
OMG, poor poor you. *shakes head in dismay*
No new shoes Ergo, just feels like a cramp. It's just a pain in the ass. Well not literally, it's in my foot. Ah whatever.
Those sappy song lyrics should be followed by realistic lines like.
Why do birds suddenly appear,
It's because of that rank smell you give off.
Something like that.
missT I had a foot pain problem a few years ago sort of came from nowhere and saw the doc, they said it was probably an arch muscle thing and I got some arch support inserts for a pair of slippers and would wear them around the house (as arch supporting shoes are sooooooooo stylish for out of the house wear) and just doing it morning and night for a few months seemed to fix it
why do birds suddenly appear
every time you are near?
why don't you
quit wearing that suit
covered with birdseed
la lalalalalala you're an idiot
la lalalalalala get away from me
LOL Ergo.
And thanks for the foot hint. I'll have to do that if it hasn't gone by the weekend.
OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
I just got stung by a stupid little paper wasp
>:[
Oooooooo nasty Ergo. get some cream on it.
ergoproxy said...
la lalalalalala you're an idiot
la lalalalalala get away from me
Can you please refrain from using the word idiot, even in fun, I find it upsetting.
sure anon, no probs
it's ok now missT they only sting for a little while it's just red now.
it's on my left shoulder
I'm just getting ready for work too, it's going to be annoying in the humidity
Take plenty of creamw with you Ergo. Some good old savlon.
What is the difference between a paper wasp and an ordinary one?
why do birds suddenly appear
every time you are near?
why don't you
quit wearing that suit
covered with birdseed
la lalalala I find you disturbing
la lalalala get away from me
hahahahahahaha Ergo, nice one.
these are small wasps, they build paper nests that hang from things, there are a few types. I don't know if they are worldwide or just here
this one was this type
so not a big yellow and black one
Oooo the little bugger.
I don't like wasps. I think it is the way that their bum part looks to be hanging onto their upper body by a thread. Just creepy if you know what I mean.
it was a Brown Paper Wasp
here
I don't think we have them here. Their paper nests are weird.
*shrieks*
I hate wasps!!!
Also:
Why do birds suddenly appear?
Every time, you're near?
I really need to stop meeting men,
at the zoo.
MissT, I betcha the paper wasp migrated to Canada and Australia because it got tired of being used for emergency fags.
Self-preservation is essential for evoloution.
Hahahahaha Amy.
Some people will smoke anything.
Or *evolution. God forbid I spell correctly.
*deadpan*
I knew a guy who would smoke used teabags, because he was too young to smoke cigarettes, and his mom wouldn't give him any of hers.
I'm ashamed of where I'm from sometimes.
always annoys me that when we have 9 1/2 acres of vegetation which doesn't get disturbed by anyone do they decide to start building right by my front door!
LMFAO Amy.
It's just as bed here. We are having a problem with bugs in hospitals so they put these alcohol based gel pumps on each ward for visitors to wash their hands.
All the alcoholics are drinking them. It must be vile but it doesn't stop them.
Oh no, what they building Ergo?
sorry missT I meant the paper wasps
they had started a nest right by the door which is how I got stung
Oh I see Ergo. Damn them, the little buggers.
ok have to go to work, wish me luck have the difficult boy, hope it goes ok
bye all!
Good luck Ergo, have a nice day.
And I am gonna take my achy feet to bed.
Nighty night all.

Hello blog
I'm back and pretty happy. I actually returned from the casino a winner!!!
Much better than losing.
Hope everyone is well
Goodnight Ergo and MissT!
Elena, congrats on your win! More comics? :3
Hi Amy
Well I'm always in the market to buy more comics but happily right now the last batch I bought has been processed.
How are you this evening?
Tearing around the internet as usual. I'm trying to figure out which tips I'm going to need to decorate my cake with.
How many comics this time?
The last batch of comics was around 600.
How many tips? I am confused!
Mayo
Well it appears it's gonna be a quiet night here. That's not really a bad thing I guess. So I think I'll just wander off and find something to do. Don't know what. Maybe I'll finish the novel I've been reading. Maybe I'll write. That always makes me happy.
You take care. I'm counting on you to take care of yourself. That's real important to me.
Night Mayo
Elena (always wishing I could do more)
I need like... 3 decorating tips to ice the cake with. I think.
Once it's done it'll be a masterpiece, you'll see.
Goodnight Elena! I'm heading to bed too.
Mayonaise and SS,
A quiet night alone in the halls! Sometimes it's nice when all the little ones shuffle off to bed of their own accord, huh?
I'll be making a mess of the kitchen soon, decorating a cake you can't even eat. Counterproductive, I know, but it will look very pretty. And it's styrofoam, so don't even try it, buster.
Goodnight guys!
hey mayo,
you know what happened today? i almost rented a house -- it would have been my first, having lived in apartments my entire adult life, and my first place on my own.
it was such a great house, too! two blocks from downtown, a fifteen minute walk or so from work, red siding, gabled ends, high ceilings. the woman who showed it to me was so friendly, and what's more, her grandfather was the one who built it. the house was over 100 years old, a little shabby, but friendly, from the minute i walked in the door.
and she wanted to rent it to me, too. even knocked $50 off from the advertised amount. can you believe a one-bedroom house with yard for $300 a month?
yeah. pretty nice. *grin*
there were a few problems though, like: no appliances. i would have to buy my own. and only one closet in the entire house, and it was about a foot deep and four feet wide. oh, and no shower.
i still wanted it though! but i decided against it, eventually. the landlady understood, and was so generous and kind about it that it ended up being a great experience all the way around, and somehow increased my determination to rebuild my life to my own criteria.
and who knows? maybe that place will be available again in a few months...
or maybe another friendly house elsewhere in town, one with a shower. i like baths, but my hair looks weird when i wash it in a tub.
but it was nice to know that i'll be able to rent a place in this town without the locals running away, shrieking. there's a strong artists' community here, oddly enough, and the town has incorporated them into their revitalization efforts, so being an artist makes one a bit of a golden child here. when i mentioned being an artist to the landlady, she perked right up, and you could see she had visions of handpainted fireplace bricks, and murals on the walls. *heh*
even the things that don't work out can be good things.
mayo, do you realize we've been at this for a year and a half now? yesterday marked the blog's eighteenth month. makes me smile.
good night, my friend. sweet dreams.
HI!
looks like I'm here alone
got home from work, it was a good day :]
sweet dreams TJ and that was aa great experience
congrats elena!!!!
amy I thought you had that website of great decorating tips, XD
The long and winding road that leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before it always leads me here
Leads me to your door
The wild and windy night that the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears crying for the day
Why leave me standing here, let me know the way
Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried
Anyway you'll never know the many ways I've tried
And still they lead me back to the long and winding road
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here, lead me to you door
But still they lead me back to the long and winding road
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here (Don't keep me wait), lead me to you door
hi anon
I like that song and it reminds me of this one
When you walk through a storm
hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
Just beautiful Anon
Thank you
Goodnight
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
Thank you ergo. Those lyrics are even more beautiful IMO.
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though I oft have passed them by,
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.
J. R. R. Tolkien
hey elena!
They are both lovely songs
but thank you and you're welcome also anon it's a traditional song and the sentiment is wonderful
oh anon that Tolkien is lovely!
thanks
You're welcome ergo. I forgive J.R.R. Tolkien for stealing and changing that last line
to make his walking song rhyme.
Any artists here might be interested in this book
the illustrations are gorgeous
oh anon her work is incredible!
so beautiful!!
I googled her and found this site
the intricacy is phenomenal and her use of colour is amazing, some feel asian inspired, others like illuminations
I must admit I do love this
and this is just beautiful
thank you so much for introducing her to me
You're welcome ergo. I'm so glad you checked into her further. Her work is awe inspiring isn't it? That sleeping beauty illustration is one of my favorites as well.
:)
this is another of my favs
and this one
:)
oh that face on the horse on the fist one is marvellous but I must say the second is gorgeous, the background is lovely and the figure of the princess so beautifully proportioned and the troll is fabulous
her attention to detail and the lines of her work are really quite incredible
Her work flows in a way few artists can achieve
Good morning/afternoon/evening Mayo, SS, Ergo, Elena, TJ, Amy, MissT, Sweetcheeks; various anons, various lurkers and various watchers!
Is everyone well, good and happy this morning? I hope you all are!
Elena: Congratulations on the casino winnings!! YAY YOU! I haven't won at a casino in years and years....
Phooey!
Ergo: Is today a titioring day or an "at school" day? Either way, I hope it's a good one (day that is) for you!
*smoooooooch*
Pssst....

Hi PJ, Redrum, Bikey, Gel, CTV, Entropy and Professor Anon!

tomorrow?today for you sort of is a work day, both classes but should be ok. Doing a prac with the yr 8 science but I think they'll be ok
and I will get the bird rest house ready!
Mayo
tonight I won't give a song, but I would really like you to look at the artwork the anon and I were talking of just above, it really is quite beautiful a very talented man (oops referring to them as a "her" earlier that was before I looked at Wiki) and he did the Night on Bald Mountain sequence in Fantasia, which was the bit I liked best. It's lovely to discover something new, and then also find out you had known it a but without even realising! he unfortunately died in poverty, but I suppose it is good his work lives on to delight untold further generations
Hoping you can find things to delight in your everyday
much love EP xx
SS
I really hope you can spare a moment to look at the artwork too,some of them are truly beautiful, so intricate and with such an eye for form and flow.
Hoping you are well and that you continue to weave grace and compassion amongst those you encounter

Hey Mayo!
Hope you are doing okay today. I'm on a Muse kick today and I was totally gonna do a clicky link and make you listen to Muscle Museum. (Like I can make you click on a link but you know you would. ^_~)
Have a good one.
Hey SS!
I was totally gonna clicky link Outkast's song about roses smelling like boo-boo for you. That song was on the radio yesterday on my way home and it makes me laugh. Oh wait! It wasn't that one, it was the 'Hey Ya!' one. Ah, well darn, they both make me laugh so there. And one more thing, I think you would get a kick out of the show Paranormal State. Dude, watch it. I swear, it's more serious than Ghost Adventures because they actually try to help people deal with whatever is going on. Lots of creepy shit happening in the world on a daily basis, man. Creepy as hell.
"Demon." O_O
Have a great day people.
Later!
Good to see you, Smoke
Have a great day.
You all want to read something horrible, disgusting, sad, tragic, the pinnacle of bad parenting?
"It's okay, baby. He was wrong. You were right. Here's a gun. Go kill him. He deserves it."
Actually, her exact words were "Go get the moth**f***ers".
This trial was postponed so many times. It's finally underway. I just don't understand how she's not up for life in prison without the possibility of parole (the sentence her teenage son did finally receive)!
*shakes head*

Mother who gave her son a gun to kill his rival expected to go to trial today
by The Times-Picayune
Monday January 26, 2009, 6:05 AM
A mother accused of giving her son a handgun to kill a neighborhood boy is expected to go to trial today in Criminal District Court.
Vanessa Johnson is facing a second-degree murder charge in the 2007 death of 17-year-old Robert Dawson in Central City. Johnson's son, Clarence Johnson, is serving life without parole for the murder.
After Clarence Johnson lost a fistfight to Dawson, Johnson went to the Guste public housing development where his mother allegedly gave him a handgun with instructions to kill Dawson.
Vanessa Johnson is also facing a federal firearms complaints for allegedly providing a gun to a juvenile.
Vanessa Johnson gave her son a gun with orders to kill, witness testifies
by Susan Finch, The Times-Picayune
Tuesday March 03, 2009, 3:40 PM
A key state witness in the murder trial of Vanessa Johnson, a mother accused of giving her son a gun to kill his rival, admitted on the stand today that he had lied in court proceedings twice before about Johnson's involvement.
Edward Willbon, a 19-year-old high school senior, testified that lied in pre-trial proceedings and at Clarence Johnson's murder trial because he didn't want to keep coming back to court and didn't want his family to get involved in the case. Clarence Johnson is serving life without parole for gunning down 17-year-old Robert Dawson on a Central City street corner in February 2007 after a fight.
Willbon told the jury that on the day of Dawson's murder, he, Dawson and others had been playing basketball on a court near Simon Boliver and Clio streets, where Dawson would later be shot eight times. At some point Clarence Johnson and Dawson got into a fight.
After the fight, Willbon said he went to a friend's apartment, who lived across the hall from the Johnsons in the Guste housing complex. That's when he heard Vanessa Johnson tell her her son to "go get the mother f---ers."
Willbon testified that he saw Vanessa Johnson hand her son a black gun through the Johnsons' partially-opened front door. "I just remember the barrel part," he testified.
Prosecutor Laura Cannizzarro pressed Willbon about why the jury should believe him when he lied twice before. He replied, "Ms. Vanessa had gave her son a gun. If it hadn't been for that, my friend Robert would still be living."
Defense attorney Jason Williams then took his turn with Willbon, reminding him of his prior contradictory testimony. Willbon, however, continued to insist that he lied in previous proceedings.
Hi Elena!!!! I hope you're having a good day!
*blows kisses and licks for Jake*
PS for Ergo: That would be my today/your yesterday... I think! This gets confusing!
Hey Wendy
Took a new pic of Jake I'm gonna post maybe tonight. Sandy Ann must see it!!
That article just made me shake my head. I just can't believe things like this.
You have a great day too
Ohhh... I just told Sandy Ann about the new picture of Jake! She and I are both excited about seeing it!
I have to tell you, I'm having a heck of time finding a wedding dress to fit her! I might have to make one myself. Oh no! And, I thought I had trouble with Little Bo Peep!
;)
That story is unbelievable isn't it? People also ask where these kids are getting those guns. WEll, we know where this one got his... along with instuctions to KILL.
*shakes head again*
I can't wait to see the picture, Elena!!! I'll talk to you tonight!
*blows final round of kisses for now*
LeATHERMOUTH
"XO"
LeATHERMOUTH is a force to be reckoned with. A side project for guitarist Frank Lero, of My Chemical Romance, recently released “XO” from Epitaph Records. First off, LeATHERMOUTH is not My Chemical Romance nor does it even resemble a hint of influence. This hate-infested sound claws at the very core of your being. And that is what I love most about this. Pouring out his disgust for the world over the microphone, tracks such as “Body Snatchers Forever” and “Sunsets are for Muggers,” Lero is given the opportunity dispose of all the hatred he has bottled up inside himself for years. Take the disgruntled views of Bad Religion and throw in the energy of such bands as Every Time I Die and Maylene and the Sons of Disaster, you will start to comprehend the sound that is LeATHERMOUTH.

Bye Bye Wendy
Oh it's a beautiful day here. The sun is shining at it's nearing 70.
Oh and yeah, next week the forecast is for snow.
Lero
lol
Bet he's going to get some hate mail.
I was just going to comment how nice it was wihtout the porchies and then.......
:C
Why don't they ALL go away and stay gone?
It's ok 2:33. They're not here much. They're not being fake nice to anybody but Mayo and SS. Nobody has to be fake niceto them either. We can coexist and be uncomfortable this way.
anons @ 2.33 and 2.46 do you behave like that in real life? or is it just cos you are anon on a blog you can insult whoever the fuck you please?
face it mayo's has been dead of late (no offense mayo, but it has). i don't understand how you think that is better than some lively and fun chat. i don't get it. why would anyone prefer to have no comments at all? as it was, certain groups of people were on at different times anyway. i think it is very sad that this place is how it is at the moment.
people don't feel welcome, others feel uncomfortable. it's pretty grim.
anyway hi mayo how are you? hope all is good and well in your world?
SS you too.
and cos of my shitty ass time zone i bet no one is around.
I'm around for a few minutes before I have to slog off to the deli mines. How is (or was) England today?
Well the shitty poetry and endless quotes are gone. I think it's funny (and GREAT) that Amyranth won the battle after all. The porchies fought and fought but they were still out numbered in the end.
If they want to come in and be fake nice to Mayo and SS no one can stop them. It is REAL nice without them though. ALL of them.
It's your bad anon, you made me think of it.

Do, sir.
Mr. Fox, sir,

Freezy breeze made these three trees freeze.
Freezy trees made these trees' cheese freeze.
That's what made these three free fleas sneeze.

Very well, then, Mr. Knox, sir.
Let's have a little talk about tweetle beetles....
What do you know about tweetle beetles? Well...
When tweetle beetles fight,

And when they battle in a puddle,
it's a tweetle beetle puddle battle.
AND when tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle,
they call it a tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle.
AND...
When beetles battle beetles in a puddle paddle battle
and the beetle battle puddle is a puddle in a bottle...
...they call this a tweetle beetle bottle puddle paddle battle muddle.
AND...
When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles
and the bottle's on a poodle and the poodle's eating noodles...
...they call this a muddle puddle tweetle poodle beetle noodle
bottle paddle battle.

Now wait a minute, Mr. Socks Fox!
When a fox is in the bottle where the tweetle beetles battle
with their paddles in a puddle on a noodle-eating poodle,
THIS is what they call...
...a tweetle beetle noodle poodle bottled paddled

Fox in socks, our game is done, sir.
Thank you for a lot of fun, sir.
shit hi carrie!!!!
sorry i wandered off for a bit!
how are you carrie? i hope good.
England is fine, it's 20.47 and all is well!
But you don't do it constantly and you DON'T do it just to bother Amy. We don't mind a little poetry (depending on who it comes from) but they did it constantly, to attention whore from Mayo.
i don't want to bite 3.33 so i won't. just get back to listening to your teacher instead of blogging yeh.
I'm pretty good, not enthralled that I have to go to work. I can get along with anyone, but the people I'm scheduled with tonight try my patience a wee bit. And good to hear that all is well there! What are you and Mr. Bloke up to tonight?
carrie, you work some funny hours? what time is it with you?
carrie, are these the slacker workforce today?
mr bloke and me are gonna watch some stuff on telly we've sky plussed later! and yeh that's about it really.
hope your shift goes nice and fast carrie.
I bitched about the poetry too at the time, but it was so very very long ago, like ancient history. Now you act like certain people aren't "allowed" to come on here at all, and sorry, I just think that isn't right.
FASC, I usually work 4:30-9:30, the closing shift. The good thing is it's only five hours, but I miss making dinner and being here when the kids go to bed and stuff. Usually it's only three or four days a week though. And we do that every night, as in watch tv we recorded. Usually bad reality tv.
How many people have they insulted and mocked faraway? How many of you let them get it away with for 17 months? Just because the plastics have names doesn't make them more special than us anons. Why can they do it to whomever they want and we can't? People are tired of the bullshit. Including letting them get away with trying to control this blog and treating people they don't like like shit.
Okay, gotta go put on my lurvely uniform! Have a nice night, FASC and anon(s).
is that good or bad not making the evening meal and putting them to bed Carrie? i know yours are older, but fuck from teatime to bedtime is kind of desperate in our house. and mr bloke often doesn't appear home from work until most of the shit is done and they are PJ'd up and cuddling in for a story. hmmmm convenient hey?! but if i didn't do it i would miss it for sure. well after a 2 week break maybe!
seeya carrie! work that uniform!!
one last, Far, I still get to deal with the mess, that's the bad part! And my kids are living on frozen junk! Okay, really gone now.

anon you know i just don't get you, but i guess that's fine.
i see it very differently cos i enjoyed spending time with those guys.
this obsession about controlling a blog baffles me. i maybe don't get it, but i didn't see it as controlling. why are people so paranoid about their status anywhere? that i don't get at all.
anyway no point arguing anon, i think this place is dead as fuck without both sides of the coin (if you get me).
and re insulted and mocked, that's come from everywhere. you'd be a liar to deny that.
i just think this place is desolate now and i find that sad that's all.
one last, Far, I still get to deal with the mess, that's the bad part! And my kids are living on frozen junk! Okay, really gone now.
yeh i bet you walk back in to a shit pile of mess that your husband has failed to see! no diss to your bloke, but they are blind aren't they?
nice chatting briefly carrie.
good morning!
hi fasc,
(wondering if when this posts and I see the time it'll be hours later)
hope work isn't too bad carrie
I think it's a damn shame how quiet it's gotten around here. Whether you like one camp or another, you have to admit that it's not the way it used to be.
It used to be fun.
It used to be interesting.
It used to be semi-educational.
It used to be friendly.
It used to be supportive.
It used to be...
morning ergo!!
anon 4.22 exactly.
Hello FASC, how are you today?
no diss to your bloke, but they are blind aren't they?
fasc it is genetic I'm sure of it!!
tuesday at work (and keep in mind I haven't worked there 6 years and the stationery cupboard is in a totally different place and I hadn't looked in it at all yet)
a young male teacher had opened it, gazed in then said "are there any overhead transparencies?"
I walked over as the lab tech did (also female) looked in and I pointed to a box of them in one spot and she at 2 boxes in another.
So I said did you have a "man look or a mummy look?" LOL
hi anon
Hi guys, how is everyone today?
Hi Ergo.
I love your stories.
hi 4.27 i'm good thanks. hope you are too.
ergo it's fucking ridiculous isn't it, they just don't see it!! they are like children. i say to all of them (kids and bloke) "i bet i walk in and put my hand on it immediately!" and i always do!!
hope your new job is going well?
miss T!!!!!!
i have left you some foot advice at the porch. how is your foot today?
and did you see my footie comment from our game on sunday??
Hiya FASC sweetie.
I have seen you foot advice, my foot feels blog famous. It is feeling much better though.
Yup, THE game. At least we took you all the way, we didn;t make it easy for you. Although I hate seeing the young Cliff Richard (Ronaldo) all happy.
hi missT
and thanks anon
fasc I feel the same!! I think they believe everything must be labelled with just it's name and no other distracting words and all facing the right way around and nothing is behind anything
hunters? pfft
unless animals in the past were labelled "BISON"
I can imagine a poor stone aged mother saying "Can you go out and kill that bison honey?"
"what bison?"
"the one standing over on the edge of those trees"
"I can't see a bison"
grabs male by the arm and drags him over and points
"The one with it's head behind that bush"
"Oh I see it NOW, how am I expected to find it with all that vegetation around?"
~and so we know why mankind began clearing land.....
haha! miss T i am sorry but it was a fab game! sometimes you get some fucking awful finals so we all did ourselves proud!
you hate Ronaldo? i can understand that. i hope you like Wayne Rooney slightly though just for his footie skills! and my lovely Giggsy! and Scholes cos he is the bizz! i totally understand anyone hating Ronaldo, i get that. but our home grown boys, they are more level headed. and it's always good to have home grown boys!
Hiya Ergo sweetie, how's the sting?
~and so we know why mankind began clearing land.....
absofuckinlutely ergo!
Wayne Rooney bleurgh. I have respect for Ryan Giggs cos he's been there years and I do have respect for the Neville brothers. They just turn up and do their job without any of the celebrity crap.
But any other Man U players *snort*. I'm sure you know how it is.
oh shit i saw that paper wasp ergo!
i have a wasp phobia so i did not enjoy reading that!
oh shit and whilst backtracking. wendy the camping trip for May seems to have been postponed! lack of funds. i must say as it approaches that makes me feel better!
but the July holiday in the caravan will happen and much drinking will be done! feel free to join in!
not that I think it is connected but the young male teacher was actually wearing a Spurs polo shirt
sting is fine now missT they aren't bad wasps but it was annoying for a while, it's just a red mark now
But any other Man U players *snort*. I'm sure you know how it is.
i'll let you off Wayne, if you include Scholesy!! he is nearly as old as Giggsy and he has served his country and he is deffo not a whinger!!
I'm glad it didn't last long Ergo. I hate wasps, nasty things.
Cool on the guy with the spurs shirt, ther are actually a lot of spurs fans over your side of the world.
Wanna hear something funny FASC. My uncle is a ginner and someone once asked him if he was Paul Scholes's dad. Hahahahahaha As you can imagine, we take the piss regularly.
missT what's a ginner?
and if I follow the soccer I look at Spurs and Man U
A ginger person Ergo hee hee!
It's like saying ginger but not pronouncing the g in the middle.
ergo i think she means "ginger" but she is Northern so i might be wrong!!
guys we absolutely have to do race to the next page yeah! it'll take us no time.
can we agree before we roll?!
yep Northern!
hey miss T "it's grim up north!!"
just kidding babe, shall we race for top spot? i've gotta go at 10pm, i am on a curfew cos apparantly i am a child? or owned or sommat like that!
No definitely the Day Crew was friendly and good for the blog.
The porchies were FAKE NICE and they did the poetry posting an dquotes on PURPOSE to upset Amy. I think that's what May was trying to say in that one post of his. I thought that was a Pro Amy post. HE KNEW they were doing it just to upset her.
guys i will race myself to the next page soon! i don't have any time!
I'm in the race FASC.
Hahahaha Grim ooop north, damn right.
5.01 sorry but blah blah blah.
load of shit mate.
You still here FASC? Or have you left at 10 bang on?
fuck i am racing now miss T!
Keep on running.
Blimey, I'm getting puffed out already.
i'm here!!
Don't you dare just sit and hover while I do all the running then pip it at the post.
blogger is a lazy fucking arse for me tonight!!
Who's it gonna be?
mother fucking fuck!
ah I get you a ginger!
Over her they get nicknamed Blue a lot
