It's in the abstract
I really don't know what I'm taling about with this post. It's one of those instances where Im' just going to write and see where it takes me.

I got all of the homework I needed to do done this afternoon. That was really, really cool. I'll try to do the same tomorrow, 'less I'm in Plant City. I have to go to Plant City's HCC campus to get an HCC ID card. Bummer, ne?

"Ne" is another word I picked up after talking to Li-Chan for a bit.

Speaking of the Lady Li-C, she told me I have a history of liking freaky, kinda' crazy guys, after I told her that Ryu is the coolest character on Shaman King.

I mean, that's not true, is it?

Yami Bakura, Ryu, Faust VIII, Venom, Joker, that freaky lady I quoted from Naruto, Toad, Beelzemon...

Damn, she's right.

You know what movie sucks? "The Day After Tomorrow". Just...ugh.

So, I want to take Julia (<3!) to a nice lunch; I'll ask her about it. Maybe she'll even say yes. She's probably busy, but you don't know.

Yeah, I've taken enough of your time tonight. Time to wrap this up.

Halloween bit of the day:

When I was a child of eight, I bought book called "Scary Stories to Tell at Sleepovers". This was about the same time that my family moved into a German house in, well, Germany.

My room was in the basement. This was a freakin' huge basement, or so it seems as I recollect it. And it was also winter, so it was dark by about three in the afternoon. I'm exagerating, but not by much.

Anyway, I read the book, and, that very night, was promptly scared to death.

Three of the stories stand out in my mind: the one about the boy whose pet black cat turned into a monster and attacked him, the one about the boy whose shadow attacks him, and the one about the girl with the monster in her basement.

Guess which one scared me the most, as I sat in the dark, in my room in the basement?

The monster ate the girl right in front of her best friend, by the way. This book wasn't big on happy endings.

I darn near traumatized myself reading that damn thing. It would scare me for several more months, even after I quickly got rid of it.

A few months ago, I found another copy of it.

Damn, those stories were stupid. ^__^

Thought of the moment: Shake it fast! Watch yourself!

Quote of the moment: "I really do like your house." -Dr. Octopus, "Ultimate Spider-Man"

Song of the moment:

"Godzilla", Blue Oyster Cult

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitting high tension wires down.

Helpless people on subway trains
Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them.

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down
As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town.

CHORUS (×2):
Oh no, they say he's got to go:
Go, go, Godzilla!
(yeahh)
Oh no, there goes Tokyo:
Go, go, Godzilla!
(yeahh)

(Guitar Solo)

Godzilla-zilla-zilla-zilla...
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Rinji news o moshiagemasu!
Godzilla ga Ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!
Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai!

[Chorus]

History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men.
Godzilla!
(×4)
