Burning the Manual

I have righted myself before you.
Pulled the knife out of my wound,
And shoved it back in yours.
Like you knew I would.
Like you knew I could.
Before I ever had a name
You knew it was there,
Everything for you
And you know it, and I
Know it still, the same.




p.s. who is driving who or...what?

Hi. This is a nice surprise before bed. Sounds complicated though. I hope you figure it out Mayo. It's nice to see you around lately, truly. I hope you are doing better.
Nighty night<3

Hope all you ladies are doing good too. Will try to check in proper sometime tomorrow. Rough day. ;p Love to all<33

New post. Neat.

Hi and goodnight Lewis, sweet dreams. I shall be harassing you on Twitter when I can. Hehe.

Off to bed for me. Goodnight to anyone here.

ergoproxy said...

hello Mayo
nice to see you

not sure what to make of this though, you sound quiet angry, hope everything is ok

toujours said...

oooh, i'm glad i decided to hop online before my coffee this morning!

it's very good to see you mayo, and very good to see a new post. this little poem is interesting -- it feels like there are two different moods in it. the first part is aggressive, what with the knife and all, but the last three lines have a softer tone. hmmm.

i like the repetition of those two lines, though, they have a good rhythm.

definitely will be thinking about this!


hope you're still in good spirits, and glad you stopped by.

off to get my coffee!

good morning all!

ergoproxy said...

hey TJ have a good day :]

toujours said...

thanks ergo! i'm all coffeed up and about to hit the road -- you're about at the end of your day, aren'tyou? hope you have a good night. :)

see you later!

Mayo
Outside the windows it is dark, very dark. Clouds hide the moon and obscure the stars. She yawns, covering her mouth, even though no one is there to see. Dishes still sit on the table, and empty wine bottle beside a Spongebob Squarepants glass, "not exactly the sort of thing you'd read in a romance novel" she laughs to herself. She re-reads the post and decides to sleep on it, though now senses a determination, and a strength in the words, tempered with a touch of regret perhaps? Take care mate, much love EP xx

SS
A breeze shifts against the window, the noise of a car in the distance gets louder, travelling far in the cool night air, she knows it will still be minutes before it passes. Crickets sing again, the tv needs to be turned off. The dishes can wait until the morning, now it is time to lie down and rest in the company of the one who loves, and is loved. The car is close now, heading to somewhere, the sound peaking, then fading to nothing. She hopes that your journey is filled with wonder, and that those who are able to share in it bring you good things. Then, sd'jgioh, a cat jumps onto her arms, reminding her it's tuna time..
lotsa love EP xx

goodnight blogbelieve see you in my morning

Hiya Mayo. Nice to see a new post though not sure what to make of it. I hope you are fine and dandy this rainy wednesday.

Hiya guys, how are you all today?

This is just a quickie as I've gotta get ready for the hospital tomorrow. Gotta have the lady bits fiddled with but it's nowt serious.

L, I hope the snot clears up.

Catch you guys soon xxxxxx

Original Punk L said...

Hey, everyone, hope you are all doing well.

Hello, Miss T. Good luck tomorrow with your surgery. Take care of yourself.

Mayo, nice to see you. S.S. hope you are good and have a great day.

Been listening to Linkin Park this morning and thought I would share one with you.

From The Inside

L.

Original Punk L said...

Here's the lyrics for From The Inside too. This is from a different album, but check out Hybrid Theory if you haven't heard it. It's one of the best they have made.

From The Inside

I don’t know who to trust no surprise
(Everyone feels so far away from me)
Heavy thoughts sift through dust and the lies
(Trying not to break but I’m so tired of this deceit)
(Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet)
(All I ever think about is this)
(All the tiring time between)
(And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me)

[Chorus]
Take everything from the inside and throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I won’t trust myself with you

Tension is building inside steadily
(Everyone feels so far away from me)
Heavy thoughts forcing their way out of me
(Trying not to break but I’m so tired of this deceit)
(Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet)
(All I ever think about is this)
(All the tiring time between)
(And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me)

[Chorus]
Take everything from the inside and throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I won’t trust myself with you

I won’t waste myself on you
You
You
Waste myself on you
You
You

I’ll take everything from the inside and throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I won’t trust myself with you

Everything from the inside and just throw it all away
Cuz I swear for the last time I won’t trust myself with you
You
You

Original Punk L said...

By the way, Mayo, I do like this post of yours. The words paint a very powerful picture.

I've pulled that knife out a few times myself, and even though I feel like shoving it back, I usually stand holding the bloody blade for the longest time, just watching metal shine in my hand before ultimately dropping it to the ground.

Only problem there, someone usually picks it back and up and buries it to the hilt again.

My thought now is to just not get close enough to give them opportunity.

Lonely sometimes, but it keeps you from having to wipe the blood from your back.

L.

Original Punk L said...

Although, I should clarify.

Sometimes, I don't have to walk toward the knife. It comes to me.

Original Punk L said...

Lovely picture, anon.

I hope it's alright to say that.

Jennicula said...

Hey Mayo,

Having lived through a relationship like the one you’re describing, I became anemic. You heal and then the wounds are opened again. You inflict and the wounds are opened again. You try and try and try and still find the knife either sticking out of you or you’re plunging it back in to the other person. It’s a vicious cycle.

While Oscar Wilde once said, “A true friend stabs you in the front,” sometimes it’s just better to put the knife down and walk away.

Easier said than done - I know. I find myself an occasional human pin cushion for one particular person. Oddly enough, I’m always surprised when I’m left laying there bleeding on the floor and they’re the ones who are walking away. Sharpening their cutlery and waiting for another day.

Oh well. One day I’ll get it right. Isn’t that what life’s all about - living and learning?

Good to see you’re still around.

Smoke said...

Hey Mayo! Long time, right?

So, I’ve been to visit a friend of mine this morning at the hospital. Her husband is a patient there and he may not even make it through the day. This lady has had more than her share of tragedies. Her first husband died in a car accident many years ago. Her daughter has had medical problems from the time she was born. Her current husband’s son passed away not too long ago and he was only in his 30’s. Now this. But you know what? Even today, she finds a way to smile. I just can’t help but be amazed by her and hope that someday I can find it within myself to be like that. There are a few things I’ve learned over the past couple of years (most of them easier said than done, I know) and I’d like to share them with you:

1. You can’t change the past and you can’t control the future. No matter how hard you try. Use that energy for something much more constructive.

2. For the most part, you get what you settle for. So, in other words, stop feeling sorry for yourself, stop blaming everyone else and do something about it if you are unhappy. (Took me awhile to figure this one out!)

3. It’s the little things that matter. Yep, that’s it.

4. Don’t let stupid petty shit ruin your day. Nobody else is gonna care if your day gets ruined!

5. Opening yourself up to others can either be the coolest thing you’ve ever done or the dumbest thing you’ve ever done. It can go either way, dude. But take a chance every once in a while, okay? You never know what kind of cool things can happen.

6. You only live once and you may not live that long so just roll with it and do those things you’ve always wanted to do. If you have an opportunity, take it. No regrets.

Okay, now that I’ve got that out of the way, how've you been? Seriously, when I read your post this morning I thought it sounded a little like Smoke about 15 years ago. Crazy, huh? Honestly though, nothing ever goes according to plan, who needs directions and holding grudges is too time consuming! Plus, usually you end up being the only one that cares in the end anyway! So see my list above! You get it, don't you? Yeah, I know you do. When this blog started that was all I knew how to do. Hold grudges and not let go. Funny how things change.

Miss you. Hope you are having a lovely summer and your life is awesome. Not much has changed in my life since I talked to you last. I did get a chance to see TBS and Eddie Reyes stand on a banister 2 feet from my head. Adam has unbelievably awesome hair and Matt Rubano is my hero. Just sayin! That little dude is a monster. And I learned that bands from Long Island are just made of all kinds of win. Envy On The Coast has to be one of the best live bands I have ever seen. No joke. They are the shit. Oh, and I'll get a chance to see the for real Mr. Brightside this year. Jealous much? Of course you are! ^_~

Anyways, hope everything's good.

*smacks the back of Mayo's head*

What? You knew I would!

Oh, and this is a line from one of EOTC’s songs called ‘Lapse’:

“No, I'm not afraid, at least not to die; I’m afraid to live and not remember why.”

*winks at Mayo*

See you around!

Smoke said...

Hey SS!

What's new in your world? Anything good? Hope you are well! Miss you like crazy.

EOTC is awesome. TBS shows are crazy and the most fun I've had in a long time. It's hotter than hell outside but life is good. Oh, and check out The Dead Weather, dude. A whole new level of awesomeness right there. :)

Hope to see you around one day!

Hugs and high fives!

i'm 1:59.

did i say i thought you were 1:51? no. as a matter of fact, i thought that you were *not* 1:51. i simply liked the lyrics, liked the way you posted the three lines previously, and posted some lyrics of my own.

CUT IT OUT? cut what out? you said they weren't for anyone in particular. shouldn't that mean they were left for everyone's enjoyment? including ours? and just to let you know, i didn't post any u2 lyrics. mine were the ones from early this morning. whoever 5:13 was, it wasn't me.

i think there's been some miscommunication here somewhere. if you want to post things for everyone, why don't you label them "for everyone"? then you won't have to be angry at those who might take them the wrong way.

good morning, 10:44. what a lovely picture! and yours as well, 5:28. i'm guessing it's all right to acknowledge those?

have a good day, everyone.

Hello Mayo, SS, Amy, Mya, Ergo, J and L, Sweetcheeks, Lewis, MissT, Jenn, PPU, anons, lurkers... everyone!!!!

How are you all today? Good, I hope!

Mayo: As always, thank you for the new post/painting/piece/place!
I really like this one. The rhythm, rhyme, flow.

Well, I'm not so sure I like that knife your using. Sharp, metal objects can be a bit disconcerting. Especially when one is shoving them (or thinking about shoving them) into wounds. Just remember not to run with it!

Amy: What's this about a naked cat??? Funny you should mention naked. I found those pants I told you about. Yes, THOSE pants! I still have them. I'm going to have to take a picture to show you. Get your opinion on them!

MissT: Good luck today/tomorrow!!!

Elena, that is a cool cover. I can see why you like it. Nice.

Ergo! You lucky thing! Hope you have a great time tonight.

Wendy, don't be running with those scissors, etiher! The other night I was opening a package with a knife and instead of cutting away from me I turned it toward to get under the tape better and just as J. said "Don't cut toward yourself, you'll..."

Yep. You guessed it. Sliced my finger about half an inch. She spared me the "I told you so", but I think it was implied. :)

Hey, Jen, Mya, various anons and anyone I missed.

How is everyone tonight?

Good to see you. I am, as always, surrounded by books.

And scratching mosquito bites. Had to go pick tomatoes and the little buggers are out in full force.

Original Punk L said...

Hey, Elena. Those critters are annoying aren't they? J. just suggested letting the mosquitos pick the tomatoes for you.

Ah, books. I went to one of our local used book and CD stores today. Something comforting about being surrounded by books.

Feeling some better, anti-biotics are kicking in. Still running a fever off and on, but I'm not as snotty as I was. LOL

Glad to hear you're feeling better. You know judging by the size of those mosquitoes they probably could pick tomatoes. And carry off small children.

It's not been too bad here for mosquitos, not yet.

One year we had a cricket invasion. Or at least it seemed like it.

True, true. LOL. I always loved the Snow White movie until I had to watch it 50 times in one month! And don't even get me started on The Little Mermaid!

I still love Sleeping Beauty!

Oh the one the girls always wanted to watch was Jungle Book. Over and over again.

Original Punk L said...

After a while, were you singing "Bare Necessities" anywhere and everywhere? I had the Pokemon tune stuck in my head for months.

Speaking of books, have you seen the huge leather bound X-Men book that's black with a giant red X on the cover? I got one at an auction and it's so nice. It tells the whole back story, including different realities and times, and the artwork is beautiful.

hi there guys, how's it going?

No I haven't see that but it sounds cool. I still have my eye on the boxed set of Sandman. Should have bought it when I first saw the thing. Now everytime I see it it's more expensive.

Oh Ergo funny story

This morning when you sent the text...

It was after 5 am and my phone was across the hotel suite. When it went off the hubby got out of bed to see what it was. I opened one eye and asked what it said...

He turned around and said, "Uh, Mayo posted."

Holy crap I just started laughing. Gotta say he took it well. He wanted to know if I was gonna get up and read the new post.

ergoproxy said...

yes it came back at about 2 pm, and hour early

we are heading out to a special dinner launching a wine at this huge expensive hotel, the Clarion, sitting at the table of the guy who OWNS it, it's a 4 course dinner, the wines and a room for the night

I am so excited

but have to get BG's stuff ready to drop her for a sleepover
*big thanks to my friend for not minding very short notice!*

ergoproxy said...

ooops tell him sorry, I still am not all up with the time zones
*sheepish*

elena said...

Ergo he laughed about it. He's finally just going with the flow. Besides it's not like his friends haven't called at all hours of the night. Once his best friend called at 3 am to tell him a joke he'd just remembered.

oh wow we have a friend does stuff like that

and another who does drunk calls, thing is they are really cute drunk calls, and phone is on hubby's side of the bed so I don't have to get up

toujours said...

mayo,

when i read your post again tonight, the title and postscript made me think of my driving practices...it's kinda obvious to see what's on my mind!

but i like the way your poetry often takes on different nuances with each reading. this one is no different -- sometimes it's almost gentle in tone, and other times it carries a defiant edge.

how do you do that? how do you write something that conveys what you want and yet leaves enough space for your readers to wander around in?

there's always something new to find in what you write. is that you writing it, or us reading it?

hmmm, i think i'll ponder later, when i'm more awake.

good night, mayo. sweet dreams.

elena said...

Mayo

It was great to read a new post this morning. But I gotta say reading it sorta made me sad. It sounds as if the person is just acknowledging that they were waiting for what they believed was the inevitable to happen. I can kinda relate to that. Always trying to grasp on to happiness but at the same time in the back of my mind I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop, so to speak. At least that’s what it made me think. Oh and that wounds we feel are healed can be reopened with a simple glance or word. And even though your post made me sad I have to admit the PS made me smile. I’m sure it was to be taken seriously but damn it I just thought of you as a truck driver again. Yep, “who is driving or what?’ Mayo is driving the 18 wheeler along a desolate stretch of highway. Sorry, my mind does wander.

Anyway, I hope you are doing well. Take are of yourself.

Night Mayo

elena said...

Just for Ergo........


She stands staring into the closet. A frown mars her face as she ponders what to wear for this special occasion. The phone call earlier informing her she’d won the contest had made her giddy with excitement. An all expense paid dinner for two and a night’s stay in a fabulous hotel was the prize. Now however, trying to decide what to wear was putting a slight damper on her mood. Glancing over at the clock she noted he would be home soon. It was time to make the decision. Perhaps her newest dress, a bit Summery but with a light jacket it would be perfect.
Soon she was dressed and waiting. In her mind she once again ran down the list. BG was safe and sound, the animals had been cared for, and goodnights had been said. Smiling she noted she was ready. Yes, she was more than ready for the romantic evening that lay ahead.
Outside she heard his car pull into the driveway. It was time. One final glace at the computer and a smile played at the corners of her lips. Tomorrow she would share her adventure. Well, at least part of it.

Oh my! Story time!!!!

*hopes ergo and elena don't mind my contribution*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As she stepped out into the night to meet her beloved, ruggedly handsome outback man; shivers ran down her spine. It was not the chill of the night air that caused those shivers. It was him. There was something about him standing there, holding the car door open for her, that reminded her of the night they first met.

He gave her a gentle hug and a passionate kiss. He told her how beautiful she looked and how he had been thinking of her all day. He took her hand, kissed it and helped her into the car.

She felt as giddy as an untouched teenager and as hungry as a woman skilled in the sensual arts ~ at the same time. The anticipation was mounting. More and more with every mile. She allowed her thoughts to wander while glancing at his hands tenderly stroking the steering wheel.

Her mouth opened, slightly, as she imagined those hands feeding dessert to her. Holding the fork to her mouth, his index finger gently wiping the whipped cream from her lower lip. Only he knew what to feed to her. Only he knew how and when to feed her.

One look into his eyes and she knew she would be well fed on this night...
and many more nights to come.

(Free dinner and room or not.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, now I forgot what I came in to say. Oh well!

Goodnight Mayo, SS, Ergo, Amy, J, L, MissT, Elena, TJ, various anons and lurkers!

Sweet dreams to one and all!!!

I rather liked reading the lovey anons. I liked the lyrics, pictures, all that stuff. Why are people getting offended with others joining in? And lyric anon at 9:32, too. Yikes. People dig tunes! People like to drop em too! I don't think it was meant to personally offend! You can still hang!

Damn.

Anyway. I just wanted to come and say I know I am late but holy shit The Watchmen was fucking awesome! I haven't encountered a story like that in fucking ages! I am absolutely floored! It was complicated! You had to shut up just to understand the fuck was going on! It was pure awesome! And the ending shocked the hell out of me! I actually yelled out when they slayed my favorite character! THAT WAS FUCKED! (But I did understand the end purpose as well. Sad. Humans.) Fucking crazy! And WHOA. Denny may have been a right bastard in that one, but damn. The man was still hot. Sigh. Alrighty, so I wanted to apologize for taking my sweet (blue!) ass time for joining in the awesomeness. But I promise to make it up to those here I have offended by spending the bulk of my coming check on everything I can get my hands on Re The Watchmen! ;p

And lordy Ergo, ya naughty minx!! Is it too much to ask for pictures of the evening??? heh. (Lovely portrait you paint Mrs. Saintly. Pardon my flushed cheeks!) Have fun at dinner with the hub!! (We are all SO aware that ya will..) (-have fun, at dinner, of course.) ;p

OPL, my dear. Please stop trying to see if your detatched body parts will grow back. Have you been watching too much influencial sci-fi hero's of late?

Trust me, it won't grow back. :(

And kudos on the great lack of snot. It is a wonderous feeling is it (s)not?? :)

Miss T, I do hope everything goes smoothly for ya and ya bits, loves! Let us know how you are fairing when you can.<3

Awesome to see ya Smoke! I hope you and co. are all doing well! And Jennicula too! Awesome to see ya names! Hope you guys come round more often!

And hey BC! I'm still waiting to be spammed my dear... ;p You tease me.

11:46 (Or 1:59? You all confuse me.) I agree that is really beautiful. Reminds me of REM. (Which is a compliment, in my head.) Hope you get what you want.

And I'll say the same to Mayo.

Hope everyone is well, thinking of ya. I apologize if I missed anyone, I am fuckin beat! Love to ya guys<33

Why do I drink?
So that I can write poetry.

Sometimes when it’s all spun out
and all that is ugly recedes
into a deep sleep
There is an awakening
and all that remains is true.
As the body is ravaged
the spirit grows stronger.

Forgive me Father for I know
what I do.
I want to hear the last Poem
of the last Poet.

Gerard TUA interview


Looks like VV's legions have gotten ahold of G's TUA interview and are shredding him for it, My Sweet Insanity posted a link at VV and they are all going crazy on him for saying he didn't care about the plot. (When it is HIS story and his business if he cares about it or not). Why is it that My Sweet Insanity, and Siobhan at VV's get news about Gerard before anyone else???

Hey, everyone!

Just stopping in for a minute, getting ready to go have dinner with a friend and see her new condo. Was supposed to go last night, but she had a last minute change of plans.

Miss T, hope you are home and doing well after your surgery. Take care of yourself and let us know how you are doing. Love ya!

Ergo, how was your night out? Hope you had a wonderful time.

Nice quote, Elena. I like it. He did have a way with words.

Lewis! You have amazing timing, you know that? :) Don't let it get to you, babe. How are you doing? Has the week got any better? Love to you and hope to catch you here soon!

Amy, was there a particular reason the cat was shaved, or did it just seem like a good idea, or...? I'm not even going to make a bad pun out of this one!

Wendy, I will be careful, I promise! I accidently dropped a bread knife once in the kitchen and J. was standing there barefoot. It bounced all around her feet, but thankfully didn't cut her. She says she can't trust me around knives. I wonder why? :)

Hey also to Mya, BC, KOL anons, Lovely anons, Jenn, Bubbles, TJ, scheming backstabbers, passing through, other anons, lurkers, John Boy, and anyone else I missed.

May or may not be back later, so have a good day, evening, night, etc.

Love,

Mayo,

Hope you are having a great day, and recharging your batteries. No, not the ones in the nightstand drawer, your energy level!

*Ducks as Mayo smacks at me for that one!*

Hope you are still in great spirits and taking time to reflect on the good things in life.

Love to you,

S.S.,

Hope you are having a great day too. Do you remember the show, "Are You Being Served?" The actress who played Mrs. Sloucomb passed away at the beginning of this month. The talk of Amy's cat made me think of her! Here's a tribute clip you might like.

L!!

The cat was shaved because she was seriously matted. In fact, she wasn't much happier getting shaved then she was when she was matted.

She was so angry at the groomer she pissed on her. Poor girl.

But she's better now, took a few looks in the mirror, and she's much less warm than she was, which is great as it was 30+ yesterday AND today.

So, I'll be out by the pool of anyone needs me. :P

GOOD MORNING!!!!!!

had a fantastic night, the dinner was wonderful, the wines they had with the winery owner Giesen wines, people we sat with were really nice (own a very popular restaurant in town and the other couple who were new to the area) and our host, who owned the hotel and all the whole marina area around it, was so nice. He is a lovely person, couldn't do enough for us and this morning took us for a drive out on the breakwater in his 1929 Dodge :D
PLUS
staying at the hotel as well was the PRIME MINISTER!!!!!!
Mr Kevin Rudd!!!!

we had breakfast at the table not far from him, there was only us and 3 others and the table of security guys further over.
After we finished we went over and said hello, he was really really nice., held out his hand and said "hello I'm Kevin" and we thought "well YES!!!"
Hubby then asked him how the job was going, and he said that was probably the most straightforward question he'd been asked , lol. He said it was difficult but satisfying, asked how we were, what we did etc, we talked a bit about the current economic issues and how it adds a lot of pressure...
all this while just standing by the palm trees at his table, overlooking all the boats.
Bit of a surreal couple of days really.
the newspaper was interviewing him at the time and they are calling us soon to get our "what was it like to just meet the PM at breakfast" lol
and all because I thought I'd have a go at winning a CD!
(which by the way is a pretty good CD)

hello TJ!!

I shall make and exception for you lol

he was so nice and it was so different from seeing say, your president on TV with all the guys around him and press and all, this was just so casual, and a beautiful day too to be by the marina
we were all sitting having breakfast under the umbrellas in this pic
Last night we had no idea he was there until the hotel owner said, and I thought "is this night going to get any MORE amazing??"

how are you?

ergoproxy said...

one just like his dodge, but this one is a bit more restored, which we went for a ride in, you can see the breakwater behind the boats

toujours said...

it's a great story, ergo! who knew a cd could lead to so much? :)

i'm clicking on your pics now!

toujours said...

wow, what a beautiful place to have breakfast. and that car! what was it like riding in one like that? did you feel like part of jeeves & wooster?

ergoproxy said...

oh it was very cool TJ, only does 15 km/h and has a horn that sounds like you're squeezing a duck!
we had all the windows down, and the windscreen folds up as well
has 3 gears and the floor was wood
he is very proud of it
it was just amazing that we won a contest and he was treating us like the most special guests, which is obviously why he is a very successful man
met his wife at the dinner too, she is a really lovely person too, they are about our age as well, 2 young kids.
he even got them to make us fresh ground and brewed coffee at breakfast (he sat with us in between doing hotel stuff) instead of the premade coffee at the buffet

toujours said...

it's just so cool you got to have that experience. it sounds marvellous. :)

Amyranth said...

*makes crackling noises while coming into the living room*

I swear, I need to set an alarm the next time I fall asleep outside....

Ergo that sounds pretty freaking cool, to meet the Prime Minister!

I hope you voted for him. :*

mayo,

a line from one of the decemberists' songs is running through my head, just playing on repeat in the background of my mind: hear all the bombs fade away, hear all the bombs fade away...

it's actually kind of soothing.

no surprise that it's in my head, though -- i think the decemberists are the only fully safe-for-work cd i have on my mp3 player. they play all day long.

well, except i decided to try out muse on the quilters today.

no one said a thing.

*heh*


i had tried mychem out once, one saturday when i really wanted to hear the black parade...

i didn't think anything of it until there was a woman browsing through the shop with her three-year old daughter...

while "mama" was playing.

there's that one line...eep!

so, yeah. i only have one sfw cd.

Mayo

Let me share a joyous, life altering experience with you. It began simply enough with a package arriving from Amazon. Nestled within was the Special Edition DVD of Rock ‘n’ Roll Nightmare. The movie lived as a faint memory from the bygone era of VHS. You can imagine my unmitigated joy when I learned that it was to live on in this digital era. Tears, Mayo, I had tears. So tonight Fred and I gathered to experience once more the intense happiness only this movie could bring. Just gazing at the box made my heart beat a little faster. I was verklempt. Seeing that man-beast Thor on the cover in all his glory (and believe me his glory does hang out) was almost too much for us. So after a quick shot of vodka to take the edge off we were ready to begin. So then how to begin? How can one describe the most deliciously awful movie ever known to mankind? Certain words leap to mind – excruciating, mind-numbing, laugh-out-loud, head-shaking, breast heaving (don’t ask why and that would be his not ours) …..Oh crap even now as I’m looking back on the experience I’m laughing (with it not at it?)
The story is as old as time. There are all the elements – a rock band, groupies, a sleazy manager, an abandoned farmhouse, a dim-witted caretaker, lots of gratuitous sex and penis monsters. Really, not kidding. Little monsters in the shape of a dildo with one eye. (Insert one eyed monster joke here). But I digress…
The plot is inconsequential. In fact it barely exists. It is merely a platform for Thor. After all he wrote the movie, the music and he produced it. I can only imagine how wonderful it would have been had he also directed.
We don’t want to give away the wisp of a plot but suffice it to say the first 8 mins and 20 seconds are painful. Out of that time, a full 6 minutes is spent watching the van drive to the farm while Thor, behind the wheel, gazes into the rear view mirror. Keep your eyes on the road, Mister! Finally the band arrives at the farm and mischief and mayhem ensue. Death, demons, doppelgangers, and disgusting drippings (from the one eyed monsters) all lead up to the ultimate battle between good and evil. Well that’s after we get to see Thor in the shower with his gal. Yep, naked Thor ass. A memorable moment now and forever seared in my mind.
And if all of that isn’t enough there the DVD extras. A wonderful interview with Jon-Mikl Thor. Rock and shock memories; rare behind the scenes footage. And two rock videos. Yes, I was caught up in such a state of ecstasy that I immediately ordered Thor’s DVD and his latest CD. As soon as I post this I’m going to order the soundtrack.
But wait, that’s not all. We just noticed that there is audio commentary by the director, John Fasano and Thor. Yes, first we search for more alcohol then we will watch the movie again. We will report back if we survive. But it may just be too much THOR.
As we start our adventure again we leave you with a Thor quote….”Come on men, let’s tune our weapons”

Take care, Mayo.

Hello again everyone

Well we made it through the second viewing and it was better the second time around. What fun listening to Thor and the director chat about the movie. The seven day shoot. And the $53,000 budget (explains a lot)
Special emphasis was put on boobs (8 because that is what was promised to the distributors) and on Thor's shower scene. He said his hammer was ready LOL
You must watch this with the audio commentary!

Anon, thanks for the links.

And yes we have the sequel and soon, yes soon, we shall partake.

ELENA! Jim was an amazing poet. He was straight fucked up, but he was amazing. No denying it. Thanks for posting that! I can't be the only one that found Thor slightly disturbing? He bulged in ungodly ways. I feel terror. :(

L! I know, right? I'm still waiting for the offical badge. ;p Love to ya and J. I'm dropping a comment here instead of mailing ya as I have been yelled at to watch Harry Potter the 5th, so we may be prepared for the 6th instalment tomorrow eve. Ya forgive me? I mean, it's Harry. I promise to mail tomorrow night! And with it, hopefully a long and irritating review of the 6th Harry! ;p

Cabana Boy, I could have seriously gone without the cat picture. Holy eww. Nightmares. ;p

Please leave VV's out of it here. No bullshit from this blog to them, none from them to us. Let's keep the peace, shall we? It's not really that hard. Everyone is entittled to their opinions.

Ergo I promise to let ya know as soon as I figure all that shit out. It would be an honor (and a riot!) to meet ya loves! No doubt about it!! Will keep ya posted, <33

I am so tired, but had the most wonderful, tasty, enjoyable night, then a fun, amazing morning. I feel so lucky to have been able to have the experience. But at the same time, sorry for the guy who missed out. But you know, it really seemed to be meant to be, so many things came together. So my short romance novel has a happy ending, hope yours does too
much love EP xx

hope you are well, I am really exhausted, excitement, nerves, a very late night of food and wine, thrilling morning of vintage car ride, yummy breakfast and meeting the most important man in the country! All of it is now in total wind down. But I am so grateful and just had the most fabulous time. All because I decided to take a chance. So make sure you always try, you really never know what might happen!

You have to try to see it from the Lovelies point of view. This is an MCR fansite. They like Gerard and MCR. Of course they are going to try to stop people from talking bad about the. They also don't like the Porchies. So why should they care if people talk bad about them? You can't blame these people for looking after their own iterests.
