It's been awhile...
Awww, man, now that song's gonna be stuck in my head. Anyway, yeah. So I haven't posted in a good long while. Why? Real life, to an extent. Then there's Myspace. Yeah, I've been cheating on Blogger with Myspace. At first I tried to post on both, but it's like the Bible says. You can't serve two masters. OK, so maybe that's not exactly what the Bible meant, but it's kinda true. And now that I've spent so much time saying that, I have to go get food so that I'll be able to eat before my line run-through for the One Act. But I'll be back, I swear!

Stop me if you've heard this one... I walk into a bar...
Yeah, I was at a bar. That surprises a few of you, I'm sure, but those of you who were with me are less surprised, I imagine. I only went because my friends were giving a little performance and I usually try to support my friends and whatnot. Other than that, the smoke is enough to make me wanna steer clear of bars. Anyway. I was sitting there, Paula's show was taking a break, and a friend's ex-girlfriend wanders over. The ex and I have met before, you know, twice, and she recognizes me and promptly sits in my lap. We converse, me politely making smalltalk to this inebriated friend's ex, and her clinging more than most would consider proper. Suddenly, she gets the idea that she wants to dance. Good for her. But she wants me to dance with her. Bloody woman. After several minutes of trying to deflect her (she's a stubborn drunk) I let her drag me onto the floor. We... well, I won't say danced. She was drunk, and I was Baptist. But the song did end, mercifully, so I was able to slip away when they told us to clear the floor for the second half of the show. Makes me wish my cross necklace was bigger, maybe it would be able to deflect non-fun drunks then.

Life's pretty good, ya know?
I got cast in a One Act! And it's one of the best of the options for this year. Oddly, I'll be using the same dialect for this One Act as I did for the last one (New York kinda thing) and it's being directed by the long-time girlfriend of the guy who was an actor in the one I was in last year. Not really surprising, seeing as how I could have connected the guy to any person in the theatre (we're all tight like that, yo) but I thought it was fun to make it seem like a big deal. Also? I really, really like my new story, and I'm doing a much better job developing it than... before. Hehe, I still wanna go back and fix that one. Also? There's just one month between me and KH2. Sweet.
Hey Blake. You have 50 new hits to your site cuz I got into the template and tried to fix those colors on the sides of the screen. Well, after about an hour of tinkering, I give up. I don't know what it's prob is. Oh well. Tell me when you want a new template, and I'll hook it up for ya with all the bells and whistles included. :)

Awww, heart-warminess.
Someone just IMed me a consolation thing based on my movie post. Wanted to thank her, but she disappeared, so I figure the next time she checks here, she'll see this. Cause it could slip my mind the next time we're both online. Also? Life's pretty good right now. Nothing's really changed, but I think life's going alright. Maybe it's cause I've had time to just sit down and draw some stuff. It's very relaxing for me. Woo! Especially when it involves a new story idea. Heh, I'm creative, but useless. Isn't that nice?

Alright.
I've calmed down a bit now. So I suppose an explanation is in order. I went to see Underworld: Evolution at the first showing yesterday. As we sit down, Paula gets a phone call. It's Lindsey, calling to tell Paula that the instructor for her telecourse has finally set the meeting to give her and her fellow students all the info they need for the course. But the meeting is at 3:30 that afternoon. Crap. So we watch the movie, and I get really irritated because some moron behind us keeps making stupid smart-aleck comments. Probably a high-schooler that skipped class to go. Anyway. The movie starts building, and I love it. It's a great movie. We are almost to the climax, the final showdown, right? Paula leans over and says "If I don't leave now, I'll miss the meeting and get dropped from the course." So I have to take Paula back. By the time I return, the movie's over. I missed the big ending. Months of waiting for this movie, and I missed the ending because Professor Kindig can't set a meeting a day in advance. So now I have to go back and see it again. And since I've calmed down, it probably doesn't sound "curse-worthy." But it was yesterday. So... yeah.

Movies Galore!
Mmmm, Underworld: Evolution. I'm headed to see it this afternoon at 1:30. I figure that'll be reasonably safe, since the high-schoolersshould still be in class. Here's hoping the previews are good, too. I loves me my previews. Guns and supernatural turf wars oughta make this movie good. Also, I've seen a lot of nice things about KH2. It's out in Japan, and IGN has the intro and the dredits posted, along with several bits of gameply footage. I love that site. I wanna marry it. Have it's babies. Etcetera. More also? I've seen the teaser trailer for X-Men 3. Yay! Somebody buy me a tire, cause it's gonna be a good year! Hehe, get it? Goodyear? Like the tire brand? Yeah, I know! Total Blake joke. And now that I've officially killed the joke, I'm calling it quits. Loveyabye!

Ok, number 5? I demand that I not be nearly frozen just because of this stupid thing. Number 8 is referring to the cold shoulder you receive for mocking videogames... or gloating about eating while I am uncapable of chewing solid foods. And number ten? Honestly, I don't have to go over the obvious "I'm nuts!" pun, cause you all see it coming, right?
