It's Been...Except

It's been one week since you looked at me
Cocked your head to the side and said I'm angry
Five days since you laughed at me saying
"Get that together come back and see me"
Three days since the living room
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like LeAnn Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous,
you'll have to sign a waiver

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air
and said "You're crazy"
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault
not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry

Chickity China the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy

Like Kurasawa I make mad films
Okay, I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides
and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame,
but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

I finally updated! Except...it's a huge post.
Life's good!

...Bet ya thought I was gonna say Except... ;)

Alice

I saw my school's play last night, Alice. It's a creepy version of Alice in Wonderland with some comedy. It was so awesome to see my friends, who have been rehearsing for hours a day for the past month or two, finally perform. IT WAS AMAZING. I think I'm going back tonight to see it again. Everything really was that good: script, acting, costumes, makeup, set, casting, EVERYTHING. Pure magical genius.


UPDATE: I walked over a mile in the rain to see Alice again. I was too late, so I had to kill time outside for 45 minutes alone. I missed the first act, but the second was amazing. The actors, some of them my good friends, are really good! :)

About Updates-

I've found that I'm updating every other day. Check here for updates then. Cha-ching!


I have another deadly English paper. I've been trying hard to write/not actually writing much all day. It's due Tuesday and I've got about a paragraph. 4 to go!
Good news is that I have almost no homework for Tuesday, so I should be free to finish it up then. :) I'm not mad/hating the paper anymore, either.

Reality is Fear

No Country For Old Men
Scariest movie I have ever seen
It's reality is what is scary:
There is no music. You can hear every sound. The plot is slow, like life. He will get you.

Terrifying, amazing.

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum

If you haven't been, go.
If you've already been, go again.

If you already know it all, feel it.
If you've already felt it, learn.
If you've already felt and learned the Holocaust, go anyway.

Never forget.

"For me the Holocaust was not only a Jewish tragedy, but also a human tragedy. After the war, when I saw that the Jews were talking only about the tragedy of six million Jews, I sent letters to Jewish organizations asking them to talk also about the millions of others who were persecuted with us together - many of them only because they helped Jews." - Simon Wiesenthal

Never again.

"When I came to power, I did not want the concentration camps to become old age pensioners homes, but instruments of terror." - Adolf Hitler

Snow in March?

Snow day today was awesome. Sorry, PA, maybe you shouldn't be so darn warm!

I'm re-obsessed with Star Wars. I'm such a cool nerd.

I shoveled snow for two hours today. Afterward I felt like I'd been raped by a snowman: aching back, freezing cold.

...Sorry about that last one...

For Krista

I've always found that
Haikus are pretty crazy.
Don't you think Krista?

Blurb

Plan: Forget long, boring "life dumps". Procrastination is making this blog now worthwhile to anyone, especially myself. I feel obligated to write, but the more I feel this way, the more I put it off. Then I come back and have even more to write, and the cycle begins until the original post has to die.

New Idea: A phrase, sentence, thought, quote, brief description, anything short and sweet that fulfills my duty and desire to write.

Sound good?
