Are they going tonight? I don't remember when it starts or...if anyone still goes. I might. It's either that or go to Lowes for PVC pipe and foam tonight. Whatever gets me out of the house. wah.

Someone mentioned it over the lpp mailing list, but I have no idea what it is. Could I make a cricket bat out of it? what else would I need to make a LARPing-type cricket bat? Electrical tape, pvc pipe, etc.? Thane, this question is directed almost entirely at you. If anyone else has any ideas, please let me know? I'd like to have this made before the 22nd? Speaking of which, what days would be available for a get together to watch DVDs to celebrate my birth? I doubt anybody could make it on the 22nd. Also, if Game is this Saturday, I might not be able to make it. I'm sorry. I didn't realize how close the date would be to Xmas. Thanks to Fetus for the Ben Folds Ep comp, the copy of Tom Waits interview of Fresh Air, and loaning me Fear of Pop. I'm enjoying them quite a bit. Thanks also to whoever gave me 17 hugs on my info page. I guess that's it for now.

"Adam's Apple" by Pain. sorry, but all of the song is good. Does anyone want a copy of the Fiftydollarfine CD? It's free, and I'm rather proud of it.

I loved it. I'm usually wary of biopics. Althoug I tend to enjoy the hell out of some of them(Ed Woord, People Vs. Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon) they usually suffer from spin, and at their worst are very forced. Case in point, "What's your name? I'm Quincy Jones." I didn't get to read up on the accuracy of this movie, but it definitely feels right, and that's worth something. It's odd. Growing up Ray Charles was just that in the open credits for Designing Women* and in the Pepsi Commercial. When I went to middle school, there was a portrait of him on the cafeteria wall along with Jimmy Carter and...I dunno, Michael Stipe or David Cross. The point is that I never thought much of him. Not until I saw Osamu Tezuk's Metropolis. They use one of his songs in it. It's one of the most moving songs I've ever heard. I'll prolly try to get it on CD this week despite the fact I really shouldn't be buying CDs. I feel like I'm already derailing, so I'll just say you all need to see this movie. Twice. There's an interesting theme in the movie that I've heard used many times before. The people you love never really die, because they live on in you, Harry. I've never subscribed to this. The dead people in my life, I felt were just that. Dead. So very, very dead. Tonight...I'm ready to think otherwise. The movie got me thinking about my father (my biological one...who's dead), because my parents saw Ray Charles in concert once. I started to think about whether or not he'd be proud of me. I keep trying to do some of the good things he did. I try to learn from his mistakes. I wonder he and my brother is. I'm never really sure. I guess that sounds bad, but I have no idea how to understand death, and it's a question I've always had to struggle with. Does anyone want to go check out Van Gogh at the High with me? See some movies? There are a lot of movies out right now I want to see.*How did I know that? whole 'nother lj post, y'all.
