I'm Worth More Dead

$4905.00


I don't know whether I should be happy about that or not.

Bored? Oh God Yes.

You know what's fun to do if your friend takes you along shopping at a big box electronics store? Going to all the demo computers with internet access, pulling up something dirty and walking away. But it has to be something a little more understated than your basic hardcore porn site. That kind of shit gets too much attention too quickly.
At London Drugs most of the computers had internet access. Amazon was already open so it wouldn't be too obvious right away. I'm a fan of subtlety in matters such as these. Luckily for me "dildo" pulls up quite a few interesting items on Amazon.
Yeah, I was that bored. And childish. But I made the best of it.

It's Here!

Holy shit! I can't fucking believe it! Seriously, it's only been a week and my shit from Pushin Daisies is here already. I'm completely stunned at how fast they managed to get everything to me.
I'm so excited about my cake pan and my cookie cutter I could poop. And my pen is fucking awesome! The only thing I wish was different it the plunger on the pen. The end depresses, but not fully. I wish it did. But I can't even really complain about that. It still fucking rules.

Is It Over Yet?

You know what I love? Waking up with a headache. On my day off. When it's about 300 degrees in the damned house.
I've taken some pills, but I think they're actually making my head hurt worse. And there is no way to cool off the house as it's even hotter outside. If I open the door or if I could open any of the windows (they've all been painted shut, thank you very much to the dumbass who did that) I would just have the inferno that is the summer heat pouring in to my house.
Why the hell is it that in the winter my jouse leaks heat like a fucking sieve but in the summer, no matter how much cooler it is at night, the house isn't going to give up one single degree? We're going to stay at a lovely 32 fucking degrees all night long! Because that, THAT is a comfortable temperature to sleep at.
Fuck I hate summer.



*On a side note, I'm really starting to wish I had one of those full body refridgeration suits Mr. Freeze has (from Batman you idiot, look it up) that keeps him all frosty and cool. That's right. I am an Ice Queen.

Yay Spending Money On Crap I Don't Really Need!

So I found this store online.
I know, you're really happy for me but why am I telling you? Because some of you are friends or relatives and may at some point wish to spend money on me. This would be me just skipping hint dropping and going straight for "Get this, right here, no jokes, this one." It seems so much simpler that way.
Pushin Daisies may very well be my new favourite site. I know it doesn't sound like it should be, but shit, this stuff is awesome and very not daisy related at all.
Here are the things I bought for myself today (because I want to show them off and so you don't go and buy me something I've got already... Hopeful? Why yes, yes I am.)

A tombstone cookie cutter:

It's so fucking awesome! Next I need to get the coffin and the hearse.

Coffin cake pan:

I don't care if I only ever use this thing once. I had to buy it. Seriously. Best. Cake pan. Ever.

Syringe pen:

This I bought because it was $2 and it made me laugh. Also, it will go nicely with the antique medical kit I bought yesterday to put in my coffin.

I'm Too Upset To Come Up With A Clever Title


First, let me just say I love Jason Lee. Really I do. A whole bunch.
Now.... What the donkey raping hell is this? Seriously. You're fucking kidding me, right? Jesus titty fucking Christ.
What's next? Huh? Kevin Smith starring in "Barney: The Movie"?
GAH!

Fuzzy Wuzzy Was A Bear

Fuzzy Wuzzy got ripped open, had his insides pulled out and was put back together inside-out.
Sound like it would make an awesome photo book? You bet it does! And it's exactly what Kent Rogowski did.
I love it, but then, I think there is something wrong with me.
These are my favourites.

Seriously, I Wish


I found this over at Penny Arcade today and seriously, as sad as it is, I would see this movie. It would be kick ass.

Brad Bird, I Love You

You've worked on some of my favourite things (like the Simpsons, the Incredibles, the Critic...) and you just keep on going.
The Incredibles was... well... incredible. The look of the film was amazing, it captured that 50s-esque style I love so much, from the opening shot to the end credits. The animation itself was flawless, the hair was enough to make me want to weep with joy. It was funny and poignant and clever. It was more than I could have ever hoped for.
There isn't one second of the film I could find fault with. The only less than positive thought I had when the end credits rolled was "How the hell is he going to top that?"
Well, you answered my question, with of all things a rat. (Don't get me wrong, I'm quite fond of rats.)
Ratatouille is, quite simply, the best piece of animation I have ever seen. I don't think I can even come up with praise worthy of this film.
The animation is mind-blowing. The shots of Paris at night were perfect, absolutely perfect. The characters all had such a... a life to them. And I hate to keep coming back to it, but I understand what a job it is, the hair! Good lord. Especially in a movie where half your cast is covered in it, the hair was just... I don't even have a word for what it was. And that's how I felt before Remy fell in to the water, before he and his father stood in the rain. I didn't think it was possible, but it actually got better.
And I could spend all day babbling about just the look of the movie, but the movie itself, the story was wonderful. It's something I know I'm going to watch again and again, just trying to take it all in. Trying at once to process the beauty of the film and the fabulous story is something I know won't loose any of it appeal any time soon. The characters alone are enough to keep me coming back. (I think I actually love Anton Ego as much as I love Edna Mode.)
I know it's not enough to cover just how wonderful everything you've done has been, but thank you. It's people like you and films like these that keep my faith in movies alive.

PS - If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask. I'm here, ready and willing to be your gofer.
