Let's go trick-or-treating dressed up like Marilyn Manson
Snatch up all the kiddies and then hold them all for ransom
November 01, 2004
I trust everyone had a lovely All Hallow's Eve.
I dressed up as Ashlee Simpson and went around blaming embarrasing mistakes on everyone around me!
Hah! Look at me! I'm topical!
Just kidding! I was Ace Ventura again, because if I shell out 6 bucks at a thrift store a year ago, you'd better be DAMN sure I'm wearing THAT shit again.
So, I wore my pink tutu and hawaiian shirt underneath a thick blanket as I sat out in the freezing cold with my mom's neighbors/only friends/link to outside world as they watched the Steeler game on a television, told the score to all the long-faced dads, and argued about politics.
It made me sick. Even the ones I agreed with. Especially the ones I agreed with. Because it makes me some sort of monster for siding with them and their hate for all things different.
I am not scared for the outcome of the election (here I go again), but I am scared for the OUTCOME of the election.
See, the difference is the caps lock.
Allow me to be fucking Nostradamus here for a minute, I have had my impending doom feeling again (Update, the last one was a fluke. See, I'll admit when it's Braxton Hicks Impending Doom Feelings), and this one's not too hard to predict.
SOME shit is going to go down, whether it's fisticuffs, litigations, riots, god knows what else.
Re-counts, angry Americans, cats and dogs living together, UGH, someone just KNOCK me out and wake me up in a month, when...well, when everyone still hates everyone.
Next update: We never speak of any of this again!

There will be some of that, just because we have already had incidents before the election has even happened. But, I have a gut feeling that it isn't going to be close enough for my future associates to make a difference, and aside from the usual suspects complaining/yelling/frothing at the mouth it should be ok.

i'm just going to voice my protest by writing in for Stephen King... again.
see, if Mr. King were President, at least things would be a LOT more interesting at the top. Plus, all those conspiracies and hidden agendas might give him some fresh ideas. who knows.

WTF are huckabees. DAMN my being on the other side of the planet. I never know what the jizzy you crazy kids are talking about. Till about 3 months later, usually. But yeh, you A-Mericans seem to take your politics rather seriously, don't you. Maybe the leader of your country actually has some real impact on the way you get to live your lives or something, I dunno. Hope whatever happens, it all goes well for... you all.

Whoah... Self lyrics. I thought I was the only person who remembered them.
Somebody must have spent some time in or around Murfreesboro.

It's on my 'mosey' list. I like to mosey through every now and then, just to make sure nobody is dead or anything. I consider it the internet equivalent of being at the grocery store and bumping in to someone you met at a party like two years ago. Except they aren't weirded out that you're wearing underwear on your head. Actually, they don't know you bumped in to them, nor do they remember the party. In fact, the party never happened. It's a really abstract idea, but it works for me.
By the way, I'm engaged now. I think you know her.
Anyways, yeah. Self. Good stuff.
Did you know Matt from self did the music for the Jumbone commercial, also the "Expedia... dot cooooooom" commercial.
I wonder if that will ever make it into Trivia Pursuit - Shit you never heard of: Turn of the Century Edition.
Little kiddies indeed.
