Forward, March !


Okay so it's almost the ides of March. Are you being ware yet?

I've really got nothing to say today but I just felt like updating the blog so I'm sure I'll at least have something in here in the March category. Gonna be short though cause I gotta go pick up my guitar from the shop. Finally had to take it in to get it all set up again. It's only been 19 years...It's funny cause I have several other guitars and I've been playing them, but as soon as one is not available I constantly want to play it. Hopefully though the wait will be worth it. Apparently my lovely strat had a severely twisted neck as well as some shorts in the electronics, so I'm excited to see what it's like now. At least it won't cut out randomly when I'm playing any more just because I decided to take a step forward or adjust the volume. And apparently that nasty rattling noise will be gone too! Will wonders never cease!

What else. March is such a slow month. Same with February. Nothing seems to be happening....just going through the motions till spring. I barely got up the energy to shave and get groceries today. Never mind trying to oh, I don't know, clean or do laundry or something. Forget it.

So what's the deal with all these 3D movies coming out? I saw Avatar. It was NOT that good. Enjoyable enough I guess, however I would have liked it a LOT more if I didn't have 3D glasses on over my regular glasses pinching my nose and giving me a headache for 3 hours. Why do people like this? Sure it allowed a couple of neat shots, but mostly it just served to take me out of the movie. Let's just hope that this is just some passing phase....I really don't need to see movies in 3D. If I want to see in three dimensions I'll just take a walk.

Oh one thing did happen! My divorce finally went through. I got the paperwork a week or two ago. Guess what day I was officially finally divorced on? Valentine's Day! How romantic.....

So yeah, that's it. Is it April yet?

Gunslinger Autobots


"Now say your lesson, Bumblebee, and be true."

The words fell from his lips like small chunks of frozen energon. His right hand trembled lightly against his chest like an idling engine.

"I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his maker."
"I aim with my optical sensors."

"Good."

"I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his maker."
"I shoot with my processor."

"So it has ever been, Bumblebee."

"I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his maker."
"I kill with my laser-core."

"Then KILL them, for your maker's sake!" Optimus shouted. "KILL THEM ALL!"

Blue Moon in February


The moon, still and cold
is unreachable tonight,
as far away as

Your face,
pale and blue
glowing by the light from the

Television
left on to spout it's nonsense
into our subconscious minds
as we

Sleep, and dream
of the days when light,
dancing on rough waters
spilled from

The moon, still and cold
is unreachable tonight,
as far away as
...

Hello, Dave


Welcome to 2010.


Why isn't the future the future?

Meet the new year, same as the old year.....

Oh well, at least it's no worse...yet.

Have I learned anything yet in 2010? Let's see:

1. Working with Saturday and Sundays off is a mixed blessing at best
2. I am lazy and have yet to actually use most of my Christmas presents
3. Quitting smoking sounds like more fun the farther away your quit day is
4. Even in The Future your friends will still come to your house and put your toys in sexually explicit positions.

Yeah, that's it.


Oh No! That baby is going to eat that planet!!!! Is this what fate has in store for us?
