I am about to embark on a mystical quest for the magic of the red stones (a.k.a. South Pasadena). I am sure to encounter many dangerous villains, helpful cobblers, and a few +5 elves. I shall relate my journey when it is completed. Or I may not. I haven't decided.

U is for Ukraine

Ken overshot the Ukraine by a few hundred miles on Thursday. He was launched by scientist Dr. Marvin Monroe, who was working in conjunction with the science division of the Eastern European Branch of T.A.G.S.M.S.

What i'm listening to right now: Erlend Øye "Unrest"

So that last post for the letter "T" really sucked, i know. But oh well, i'm just not feeling it right now. watch, i'll try and write one my trademark whimsical poems:

The birds fly through the air
with worms in their teeth
and gel in their hair.
The fly north for the summer;
they would stay south but seriously this global warming shit is just making things too hot and they'd much rather be in cool weather 'cause they get hot and then they sweat and their gel melts and gets sticky.

see? it isn't working like it used to. and believe me, it used to work. oh well. things are alright i guess.i have a crazy teacher for my summer school class, i swear he's on something and there are very credible rumors that he's slept with some students. gross. you know i'm running low on the creative mojo when i start talking about my life in this thing. i go back to South Pasadena on June 1st. I leave at like 6 am and get in to union station in L.A. at about 10pm. a long trip but so much cheaper than flying. (i'm taking amtrak).work is going ok, but i need more hours so i can pay my rent! i think i might work all next week, so thats good. that reminds me, i went to go see "the chronicles of riddick" last week, and it wasn't the soul sucking vapid abortion i thought it would be. ok yeah it was dumb in some parts, and it needed to be shorter and stay with the main plot better (there was this like 45 min. sequence in this prison on a really hot planet, "crematoria", lol, that could have been shortened by a lot.)but anyway, the production design was neat, done by the same guy who did Dark City. Overall it was a fun movie, i'm glad i saw it, and well worth what i paid to see it (which was nothing, haha :), thanks will) there are some movies i want to see this summer, like michael moore's new film, and "young adam" (it has Tilda Swinton!!!! YEA!!!!! )speaking of tilda swinton, i've been having this strange urge to watch "orlando" again. its a really great movie that has been called "the draughtsman's contract of the ninties." now, i wouldn't go that far, cause you all know how i feel about the draughtsman's contract, but "orlando" is still a great film. my sister teresa has netflix so i asked her to put it on her rental list so i can see it when i get down there. :) well thats all for now, i've gone on quite long enough. in fact, i think this is the longest post in which i actually talk about whats going on in my life at the moment. lucky you, you get to read it. i'm so jealous. wait..no i'm not.

p.s. the third harry potter movie is awesome. now i'm not that big of a potter fan, and i stopped reading the books at number three, but the third movie is not just the best harry potter film, its a damn fine film period. go alfonzo curon!

T is for Test.

Ray took a test on some subjects that he really didn't like. so he killed the teacher. blah...
