1:08 pm - Into the Dark
|
I've recently been listening to covers of Death Cab's "I will follow you into the dark". I don't actually like the original, but the covers are one and all amazing. Of course, the rather over-the-top nature of the song has made me want to give it new lyrics of a comical nature, playing off the dark theme. The first idea that came to me uses the same line of following one into the dark, but makes it about playing games in the dark when the lights go out. It suddenly turns a Romeo and Juliet vibe into something much sillier. I'm also mulling over lyrics about eating dinner. It would keep a similar rhyming scheme, and the word dark. I don't know why I find this idea so very amusing, but I keep at it. Maybe if I keep up with it long enough I'll post my new lyrics.
current mood:  amused

Been a while since I've updated this thing. Had a decent thanksgiving, though a little tiring. Watched 2012 twice in the past week. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. It is an awesome disaster film, though that means questionable science at times. Still, it was a lot of fun. I've been watching through Avatar again with my mom, and over this past weekend, we managed to watch all of season 3. More people really need to watch the show. Unfortunately, most people stop short when they see it's a cartoon. Bah!
I also managed to watch an anime movie called Paprika last week. I'm glad my roommate made me watch it. It's a heck of a mind-trip of a movie. It has this really crazy-awesome parade song, which alone is worth watching for, but there's so much more. Um, so yeah.

12:06 am - Another successful man night
|
|
I don't think I've mentioned it before, but I have a group of guys I hang out with on monday nights. We call it man night, and it is truly epic. We play a good hour of Halo 3, eat manly food, drink way too much pop, read a few chapters of the bible, pray, then kill each other a little more. Sometimes we watch the latest episode of the Big Bang Theory or an old ep of Metalocolypse. The guys whose apartment we do this in also has easily a dozen plus knives stashed under and around the furniture, so we always have something to play with when bored. So awesome.

Listening to the Flobots and Muse for the past two days has given me a very strong desire to write poetry. Unfortunately, I keep listening to them at like one in the morning, when my cognitive functions are not terrible functional, and when I would like to go to sleep. So apparently it's not going to happen any time soon.

I have been having a slew of very odd dreams the past week or so. I remember very few of them, but I do recall that they have all been very vivid and have all kept me from having a deep sleep. I'm not sure why. Last night's dream was very disturbing, on par with the twilight zone, or some other similar sci-fi story. In fact, in retrospect it reminds me just a little of Bradbury's Martian Chronicles. Very weird.

I had a weird, weird dream last night. Specifically, it was a repeat dream that wasn't. Meaning, I had a dream some night before, and it started playing again, except this time I was aware that it had occurred before and was able to change the plot. As the plot revolved around breaking into a bad-guy's house through several layers of security devices in order to steal from him, the dream seemed like some version of an Ocean's Eleven plot. It was rather intense though, as the first dream involved us being caught by a secret alarm, and one of my men was working for the enemy, not to mention that I had gotten shot, though somehow survived. This second time through, I couldn't remember how I had survived being shot, so I was trying really hard not to get caught this time through. It involved a lot more sneaking around beforehand.

Delightfully cheesy. Has anyone seen the new show from cartoon network called The Super Hero Squad Show? It's straight up Marvel chibi. It's so kiddy, but it's still pretty funny.

I've been rediscovering the joy of legos recently. I forgot how much fun they were to build, not to mention how many I have. So much fun.
I've also been playing FFIII for the DS, and I just finished reading a book called The Court of the Air, which have both been quite interesting.

My Sobe says that it is "Naturally sweetened with sugar". What does that even mean? How is that "naturally sweetened"? Natural sugars from fruits, that's naturally sweetened. Adding sugar just makes it sweetened.

Did you know that in the past 30-some years since abortion was legalized here in the US, there has been about 50 million abortions performed? And that might be a low estimate. That's a lot of blood and guts, if you think about it. Also, what do they do with all those baby guts/remains? I mean, babies are pretty small, but even still, 50 million of them are bound to take up a lot of space. Do they just bag 'em all up and toss them out with the garbage? Are there bags of pulped infant remains cluttering our many dumps out there? You know, in just a few more years, we'll have committed the holocaust ten times over. Go us!

Oh man, that was an intense movie. This is the reason why I love sci-fi, but it's also the reason why I'm not always fond of true sci-fi: it's just so emotionally bereaving.

9:39 pm - Tower of Babel anyone?
|
Maybe it's just the cynicism in me, but all I can think of when I hear that new eco-friendly song by the latest batch of disney-ettes (Jonas Brothers, Miley, Lovatto, etc.), is the designers of the Tower of Babel. I mean, they have that whole thing about how if we all band together, there isn't anything we can't do! Gag. Forgive me too for not really trusting the mouthpieces of a mega corporate machine like Disney.

I had a dream last night that I saw the new Harry Potter movie (which I have not). I've heard there is a bit of twist in the story, and in my dream, that was so true. In it, Dumbledore isn't killed by Snape, but somehow regains his strength and fights off the death eaters until he has a showdown with Voldy. If I recall correctly, Voldy kills Dumbly, but it was quite odd. In my dream, after watching this, I immediately decided that I must journal this major plot change, but was very worried about spoiling things for people. Very strange.

According to my last.fm profile, I have a rather eclectic musical preference. I'm so proud of myself.

I just had a flashbulb moment of insight a bit ago, regarding Captain Jack Sparrow. Specifically, I realized that I finally understand the nature of his ship longing. It struck me that while I don't possess any desire so strong for a thing, I have, for many years now, so longed for a wife. Before now, I liked Jack, but I didn't understand what was so important about that particular ship, but now, I can see the connection. It's really quite interesting to suddenly find one's self empathizing so suddenly.
