I'm awake? I'm awake!
I'm also a moron. This is the second day this week I blew off doing homework to RP with Rayne. I have, like, no self control.

"Okay, this'll be the last post...but what's happening to Seth next? Just one more..."

Well, fortunatly, I can pick up the slack tomorrow, in that big span of nothing I had planned.

At any rate, I've got a busy weekend planned. No, not really; I'm just going to work 'til I'm tired.

Tomorrow night, Ernesto and I (and anyone we can get to join us) are going to see The Grudge. Sarah Michelle Geller in a manga horror flick? Yay.

I'll be sure to let you know how that goes down.

Or maybe I won't. Maybe I'll keep you in suspense. Yeah.

Have you guys been reading Azale? You should be.

I'm down to two Spider-Man comics a month, until this "Sins Past" crap is finished. "Sins Past" sucks.

Who knows? Maybe I won't go back. Serves 'em right.

Ahem.

I traded in my Game Boy Advanced SP to get the store credit value, allowing me to set a deposit on a Nintendo Duel Screen. NDS = God.

The downside is that none of the first wave of games really appeal to me, but, whatever; a good RPG can keep me quiet for weeks. I used the rest of the money to buy Cowboy Bebop: The Movie and '98 Godzilla.

Godzilla was a horrible, horrible movie, but I still enjoyed every second of it.

Speaking of horrible movies, it's time to cover one in my Halloween moment of the day.

I love the '50's black & white crappy horror films, and none is dearer to my heart than the grand daddy (grand mommy) of bad monster movies, the Attack of the 50-foot Woman. It's not just a monster movie, it's a soap opera. A bad soap opera.

The effects were so lame you could see right through them, literally. The acting was so forced, and all the horror movie stereotypes were there, particullarly the dopey sherrif's deputy.

The best part is, at the end of the whole thing, one of the main characters simply shrugs, in the very last scene. His shrug kind of exemplified the way folks felt about the movie.

I think there was a re-make, but I wouldn't want to see it. No way could it be as wonderfully horrible as the original.

Watch it with friends, and prepare to laugh at it, not with it.

Thought of the moment: My foot's asleep.

Quote of the moment: "Except for slavery, fascism, nazism and communism, war never solved anything." -One of my classmate's t-shirts

Song of the moment:

"Attack of the Fifty-Foot Woman", The Tubes

It was a normal date with my girlfriend Sue
Blond hair, blue eyes, and five-foot-two
The night was cold, the stars were bright
From over her shoulder came a strange light

We parked the car down at Three-Mile Point
The top was down, we were really going
I heard her cry, the reactor flared
She grew and grew, I freaked and stared

Attack of the fifty-foot woman
Our love was at an end
All she did to get her kicks
Was step on all the men

I had to run just to save my skin
She scooped me up, I could not win
“My God,” I screamed, to my distress
Got a fifty foot woman in a five-foot dress

Attack of the fifty-foot woman
Our love was at an end
All she did to get her kicks
Was step on all the men

Attack of the fifty-foot woman
Our love was at an end
All she did to get her kicks
Was step on all the men

Look out here she comes
the biggest pair on earth
So scared I gotta go with her

The National Guard couldn’t shoot her down
Before she left she really trashed our town
She left me there, though I tried and tried
A fifty foot woman’s never satisfied

Attack of the fifty-foot woman
Our love was at an end
All she did to get her kicks
Was step on all the men


(I'm very, very sorry. No, really. It's just that, it's hard to find Halloween music, and I had a theme going, and...I won't do it again. Sorry.)
