I should feel bad for not keeping up with blogs.
*creepy announcer person voice* but being bad just feels sooo gooddd...
Really, I've just been tired. All the time. You can't tell because I'm sneaky.
Oh, what have you been doing? Why are you so tired?
Is what they would ask if there were anyone there.
Honestly, I can't remember where I've been. It takes too much effort to remember. People say I've gone to school and gone home and gone back and came back home and I just believe them. They all seem very trustworthy. Upright gentlemen.
Thanks for reading. I think I'll have a muffin tomorrow and keep it all to myself.

"C'mon, you know your tired."
"But I can't."
"You know, if you don't go to sleep now, you'll end up staying up past three and waking up at two-thirty, though you won't ever really wake up, you'll spend the other ten hours in a daze and-"
"I just can't. Oh there's so much to do, so much to do.."
"Like what?"
".... I don't know yet."
I was walking and my shadow caught my attention. I liked the way it made my legs look, all trim and healthy, but it left every part of my body that was above the waste horrifically disfigured. I wondered if I twisted myself a certain way and waited long enough for the sun to cast my shadow at a more desirable angle, if I could look completely perfect. Of course, I could just wait for the sun to burn out.
I have a scab on my lip
that I think used to be a zit
but I picked at it too much.
It bothers me enough
to keep picking at it
and if I pick at it enough
it peels away
but the air stings my flesh.
I poke and nudge the exposed skin
until the stinging goes away
or I find a better excuse of my time.

Your daily dose of depression
It's really weird: sometimes I'm swept by these waves of sadness and when I peer deep into the crevices of my limbic cortex all I find is songs on the radio. I search deeper and come up with kittens, then random movies. Soon I'm all spaced out and sort of just absorb all the words and sounds and every stimulus I can find, then I don't feel so blue anymore. I'd just like, just for once, to remember what I was thinking in the first place.

Blog to (hopefully) contain all random thoughts on today, Thursday, the eighteenth of December, year two-thousand and eight
Poor Caylee. They've found a body and they're waiting for the autopsy results. For some reason, I had a feeling that she was gone long ago.
Now, this is a horrible case and I realize that a lot of people feel very passionately about it, but do they have to have an update every day when there's no new information? During the first month or so, I was thinking about Caylee's family and I thought that they could not possibly be liking this. I thought it would be hard, missing someone and literally seeing their face everywhere you turn. And this news is important to her close family, and the people involved in the trial and such, but does anybody else really deserve an opinion? If anyone has one, it's what the media has anyway, so it's obvious to everyone else that you're thinking exactly the same as they are.
Then, what really hits me is that people get all worked up over a missing white child, when this sort of thing has happened before and no one made such a fuss. It's like, until CNN put a face on child abduction, no one really cared. And everyone will gladly voice their redundant opinion, but only a small percentage of those people will act on it.
And if all this is true then you're talking just to hear yourself talk right? Or else you want everyone to know that you dislike child abduction, that it's a terrible, terrible thing? Well if that's all agreed upon then, that it's a terrible thing and that it happens all the time, then shall we move on?
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, turned out to be a great book. The only problem I had with it was that it's so short (roughly 26 pages, one sided), that a few of the characters aren't entirely developed. Though the film adaptation may be longer than the book, I don't feel that will necessarily be a bad thing. The cast certainly looks well enough to meet my expectations; Brad Pitt fills my mental image of Benjamin Button perfectly. Definitely worth your dollar.
And, Christmas is only seven days away! I hope I'll be able to sleep on Christmas' Eve. I haven't been good about that the past few years. Maybe because of all the hot chocolates and cookies and sweets? No, it must be insomnia :P
I got a cool, blue plaid jacket today. It has plaid, thermal pockets.
I also found a white chain lying on the floor near the mall and decided to give it a home. Now, that home was supposed to be on my wall, but alas, laziness prevails. I'll get around to it sometime during the break. Sometime after sleeping in, I shall hang it neatly below my band posters.

Fun Test Thing [ +5 for origonality! ]
Haha I don't care if I get points for this or not.
I tried this the first time and it utterly failed.. like I couldn't answer at least four of the questions haha.
So here's take two. A few of the names are obviously computer-generated...
1. If Evan and Marissa teamed up, what would they most likely accomplish?
O.O I'd rather not think about it... It would probably be something like War of the Worlds only with more giant Robert Trujillos crab-walking people to death.
2. What song could be Ashley's theme song?
"do dee do Transformers. Robots in disguiseee." :P
3. What is or would be a good nickname for Alyssa?
Blue-eyed she devil! I'm watching you...
4. Have you ever been in Kim's house?
Once or twice. We watched House!
5. Who's She-Ra dating?
Lars, Prince of Shlarganovia.
6. Marissa just got vaporized in a freak accident. Now what?
Ahhh poor Garrett :[ (....how many freak accidents involve vaporization?)
7. Who would be a better superhero sidekick between Eliysha and Marissa, and why?
Eliysha! Because she wouldn't fit anywhere else in the quiz xD
8. What would you do if Alex and a Disney prince were going out?
I dunno, give them a cookie?
9. What is one thing a girl isn't exactly made for?
Urinals? Only thing I could come up with.
10. A Disney prince is actually Kim in disguise, you know.
Ahh Kim and Alex are dating? and my mother's a man?!

And on a more random note...
I've just realised that if you hit the tiny blue preview button on the corner of your posting box and you click on the title section of the post, you can effectively type in real time! Like, as you type, words appear on the preview! I must have typed "I like waffles" ten or twenty times before I remembered that it was supposed to be a serious post...
The Intriguing Tale of Edward Edmonton
The only movie I'm looking forward to seeing this Christmas is The Curious Case of Benjamin Button because it seems like it's the only film that wasn't made specifically for Christmas. Then again, my only other options are a remake and two "feel good movies" But I'll save those rants for later.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is about a boy named Benjamin who's born an old man and as he ages, he seems to become younger. It's kind of like that Robin Williams movie from the times of olde, only in reverse and presumably more enjoyable. Benjamin falls in love with a girl named Daisy and the two sort of have to deal with this peculiarity as she ages and he grows young.
I think I'm mostly curious to see what happens when the two become middle-aged. Better yet, what happens to Benjamin when he actually reaches 80 years? Does he die an infant? Well, it's supposed to be based on a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald so I really won't have to wait for Christmas day to find out. After, I guess I'll decide if it's worth watching.
