i hate gingham.
yeah, you heard me right. i *hate* gingham.
now i'm not talking hatred in the "ewww...yuck...gingham" kind of way. oh no. i'm talkin' homicide. extreme acts of unimaginable violence. bloodshed. murder. that's how much i hate gingham.
so, you see, this is why i could never go on a show like "trading spaces" or "changing rooms". i'm terrified of walking back into my house and discovering that my idiot neighbors and some retarded decorator have redone *any* part of my home in gingham.
i'm afraid my reaction wouldn't be pretty...at all.
first, i'd smash the nearest large vase over neighbor #1's head. then i'd slash the throat of neighbor #2 with the broken shards of vase. after that, i'd smother the decorator with some handy (but now hideously gingham) throw pillows. after that, i'd run screaming at the stunned camera man, yelling at him to "turn off the goddamn camera before i shove it where the sun don't shine".
in the midst of the massacre, i'm fairly sure the police would be called. i'd be arrested, tried, found guilty (despite my "temporary insanity brought on by gingham" plea) and given the death penalty. probably the electric chair...or maybe they'd bring back beheading in my honor. ;)
theedgyloner and darkwolf3114 would collaborate with dindrane to write a sleazy "tell-all" book about my life. they'd hire minnaloushe to do the cover art.
it would, of course, be a best seller and they'd make millions selling the rights to hollywood. eventually, the sci-fi channel would do a mini-series loosely based on the book...but taking place in the middle ages. they'd hire cynical_ghost and rhiamon as the conceptual artists. scarsandtutus would get her big break playing my fictional bestfriend stella...a hard-drinking, foul-mouthed bar-maid with a heart of gold. she's later nominated for an emmy award for her performance and goes on to get her own comedy series on NBC. the mini-series, of course, is a smashing success with a four dvd, extended version set to be released later in the year.
meanwhile, pinknightfaerie would organize a mass protest against my death sentence...and she'd hire shyfayrie to design the signs the protesters would be carrying.
during the protest, zoloft and murderoftwo would team up to break me out of prison. they'd manage to smuggle me over the canadian border before our plane is shot down. we'd later be rescued by a mountie who looks just like fraser from "due south". he and i will, of course, fall madly in love and retire deep into the wilderness...where we'll live off of roots, berries, moose and rain water. we end up raising four kids and live happily ever after.
meanwhile, the rest of you all go on a special, two hour "oprah" show. everyone agrees that you figured i'd probably go postal eventually because i "had crazy eyes"...and i hated gingham. :)

michael and i were talking on the phone just a little while ago and we got on the subject of goth-themed stuff for some reason or another. anyway, now i'm thinking about doing something with a skull and bones border. of course, all my art stuff is over at my MIL's right now...dunno, maybe i'll call j. in a little bit and ask him to bring it over with him when he comes home.
speaking of which: he's been gone all afternoon and evening working on his mom's water pipes. i miss him. it's his day off and i know that it's the only time he's really got to work on this stuff...he promised her that he would. but i'm feeling very selfish today and wish he was here. :(
but, on a lighter note...i finally talked flint into joining the messageboard over at epilogue. i dunno if he's submitted any of his artwork there or not yet. if not, i'm going to have to harrass him until he does. his work is really quite amazing. :)
anyhoo. gotta run...i need to go bookmark tonight's "24" re-run. ;)

that song "flora's secret" by enya makes me unbelievably blissful for some reason. it reminds me of hobbits and fields and wildflowers and breezy sunshine and things that smell nice. i listen to it and i just get this big, sloppy, stupid-happy smile on my face.
that is all. :)

last night, i had this very bizarre dream that a girl i used to be friends with (catalina) had a movie made about her life. i dunno quite why that would be bizarre...but it just was.
and i've decided that i'm going to draw something interesting today if it kills me. well, hopefully, it won't actually KILL me...but, you never know. ;)

"shores of avalon" - tina malia. |

the day is overcast and cool. the air smells very faintly of cut grass. there is a breeze and a stray sunbeam peeking from behind the clouds and into my window.
my sister loaned me a cd called "shores of avalon" by tina malia and it's very pretty music...faerie music with accoustic guitars. it makes me want to go somewhere where there are gardens and blooming trees and ponds and wooded pathways to walk down for hours.
"the fragrant air,
the apple blossoms
have all been beckoning..."
so, i'm going to go take my bath now...and then i'm leaving. i will go to j.'s mother's house and find my camera. then i'm going on an adventure. when i return, i hope to have some photos to share. :)

everything is catching up to me and i'm feeling tired and a little bit sick right now. O_o
earlier, i trimmed my bangs (which were getting way too long) and then cut j.'s hair for him. i think i cut my bangs too short, but, on the otherhand, j. seems very happy with HIS hair-cut. :)
i think i'll probably go to bed early again tonight.

"poison" - alice cooper. |

she's REALLY unhappy at the moment...and hiding under the couch, too, i think. since it's cool and sunny today, j.'s decided to cut the grass. well, bronte HATES the sound of a lawnmower. so, as you can imagine, she's not terribly thrilled with the situation.
on the otherhand, gabrielle could care less. she's sitting in front of the stormdoor, watching j. thru the window and seems to be completely unfazed by the noise.
meanwhile...the ferrets sleep. ;)

Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Well, it's time to celebrate your birthday, it happens every year
We'll eat a lot of broccoli and drink a lot of beer
You should be good and happy that there's something you can eat
A million npeople every day are starving in the street
Your daddy's in the gutter with the wretched and the poor
Your mama's in the kitchen with a can of Cycle Four
There's garbage in the water
There's poison in the sky
I guess it won't be long before we're all gonna die
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Well, what's the matter little friend, you think this party is the pits
Enjoy it while you can, we'll soon be blown to bits
The monkeys in the pentagon are gonna cook our goose
Their finger's on the button, all they need it an excuse
It doesn't take a military genius to see
We'll all be crispy critters after World War III
There's nowhere you can run to, nowhere you can hide
When they drop the big one, we all get fried
(Come on boys and girls, sing along, ok?)
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
wow! (background screaming, sound effect)
Well there's a punk in the alley and he's looking for a fight
There's an Arab on the corner buying everything in sight
There's a mother in the ghetto with another mouth to feed
Seems that everywhere you look today there's misery and greed
I guess you know the Earth is gonna crash into the sun
But that's no reason why we shouldn't have a little fun
So if you think it's scary, if it's more than you can take
Just blow out the candles and have a piece of cake
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
wow!
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
(Happy Birthday!)
And a pinch to grow an inch!

| something very cool happened yesterday... |

 surprised |
] |
while i was visiting my parents.
my mom and i were taking a walk around their yard (which is huge)...we'd come 'round the back of the house and a hawk flew overhead and landed on a tree in the woods just off the edge of the yard. he perched there on his tree while i walked down the wooded path towards the garden so that i could see him better. after a minute, he swooped down to the forest floor and then back up to the tree again with something in his mouth. i was too far away to see what it was, but i'm assuming it was probably a lizard, fieldmouse or mole...whatever it was, he ate it!! then he was chased off of his perch and over to another tree by a couple of smaller birds, who probably had a nest nearby and were worried about him plundering it. when he noticed me stalking him, he then flew off, over the trees and in the direction of the neighbors' house.
it was really facinating...i've never been THAT close to a hawk before, let alone witness one snagging some prey. we have hawks that nest in the woods that surround the fields by our house and i see them often. but they never come very close and i only see them as they're flying across the fields or perching in trees and powerlines. this fellow was only about ten or fifteen feet away from me and i could see him very clearly. he was a small hawk, so i'm not sure if he was just a very young redtail or if he was another type of hawk. but he was lovely. :)

well, i got about five hours of sleep. all things considered, that's not too bad. ;)
the weather has been INCREDIBLE...i slept with a fan in the open window last night. the air smelled really nice and the pollen didn't even bother me. i'm kind of surprised!! :D
i'm going to see my parents later today. my mom bought me a blender...which is nice because i really need one. now i can make milkshakes and fruit smoothies and homemade spaghetti sauce again...a day without homemade spaghetti sauce is like a day without sunshine, ya know. ;)
