Why aren't ya'll listening?

Take my love.
Take my land.
Take me where I cannot stand.
I don't care, I'm still free.
You can't take the sky from me.

Take me out to the black.
Tell 'em I ain't comin' back.
Burn the land And boil the sea.
You can't take the sky from me.

Have no place I can be since I found Serenity.
But you can't take the sky from me.

- Joss Whedon

btw

I'm trying to straighten out this page..


may patience be with me...

"If you can't be with the one you love, honey.."

(every body!)
"LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH! Love the one you're with"

It's a great sentiment, if the one you're with knows you exist.

If you have taken my advice and gone out and at least rented Serenity and given it a spin in the dvd player, or your favorite gaming station not owned by Nintendo, then your probably familiar with Kaylee and Simon.. unless your just like Simon in which case your probably still so busy multitasking and maybe not even past the title of the post. ( and in which case, more so if you evern remotely resemble Simon.. or Malcolm.. or Walsh.. hell I'll even settle for Jayne right now, e-mail me and end this misery.. lol) But moving on... I can't say I relate the most to Kaylee, not sure who I relate most with, but I do know I feel for the girl, I know I've been in her shoes before, somewhat currently in and possibly will be again, despite the outcome of my current situation. And I know in the end she gets her guy and I know in the end, I and all the other women in the world like me will get a.. not necessarily the guy, but a guy who in the end is probably better for them after all. Though this in no way is me saying settle for what's their, by all means have standards, I know I do.

Just hang in there and guys ( and in some cases the role can reveres, I feel for you men out there too) wake up and smell the coffee, because even if she's not waiting for you, someone else is, so find her or go for broke, and take a chance on the most beautiful girl next to you.. could make your day and her's too.

PEACE OUT

one hangover and a hero later...

I spend yesterday - Saturday - recovering from what wa a relatively mild hangover considering the alcohol consumption from the night before. And I spent it with friends, Good Friends.. Nik, Batman and A. I even managed to squeeze in another 2 episodes of FireFly... which by the way Joss Whedon is my new hero..
Let me explain..

Every few years I take on a new... well idol isn't the right word for it, but close enough... it used to be Warren Ellis.... and now it's quickly becoming Whedon... well at least with Firefly, can't really say I'm a fan of much anything else he's done... like Warren Ellis who gave me hope for the future of Comic Books and the future I could one day have in said genera... Whedon gives me hope as a writer in general. More so as a Character writer, which when you really get down to the heart of who I am and what my strong points are as a writer, that would be it. The down side is now revisiting that story line I gave my life to in high school, refining. But with the help of Nik, I'm at least looking at it with the highlight of an actor's perspective, so at least the characters are being polished up instead of fully revamped, which is usually the case.

And I love having the friends that I have, like take yesterday for example... I sit down with Nik, A, and Batman... ok so first off, when Batman watches something, (at least I hope this is whats actually happening) as a tech he's going to watch it from a more mechanical perspective... Nik, an Actor, well you can guess her perspective... me a writer, well duh a writing perspective... and A, well she's what you can call an informed Viewer, she's not a stupid couch slum, slave to the TV forever and eternity, she enjoys tv when she dose stop and sit down to watch certain shows, she's observant and watched the full picture and takes a bit from each aspect.. If Matty were around we'd have the Director/Producer/graphics... but in my world that would be the perfect world.. at least given the circumstances.

Well when it's all said and done I can leave you with two bit of some decent advice...

1) it's amazing what you learn when you listen..
2) Go buy Firefly.. you be glad you did....

*cough*

Sick again.. something new this time, same symptoms, but different order - gotta keep things interesting...

I have my drivers test this Friday... *shivers*

Finally got a real offer on the house... so if it pulls through I guess I'll be living else where, at least during the summer, can't afford my own place until fall....

And I just saw the new Astros Monopoly.. 44 Roy O' is one of the Boardwalk blues... yeah I know I'm a little shocked too, I didn't even think he'd make the reds' good to know there are other fans like me and more devoted out there. So yeah - obviously I'll be buying that next pay check... :D

light up

So I went to see Thankyou For Smoking... money well spent.
Aaron Eckhart is wonderful as always... along with an equally stunning cast, not at all brought down by Katie's performance... Amazing I know, she usually destroys everything she signs on too. Aaron is also among what seems to be an ok cast for the Black Dahila movie. A personal fave of mine. I have the doll and everything. Plus I saw the trailer for the new Duchovny, good to know he's working seriously again, not that I didn't love love love House Of D. Trust The Man looks interesting and somewhat humorous. And as most of my oldest friends know Mr. Duchovny is among my top 100's list of Hollywood Hotties, holding a special place in my memories as one of my first movie star crushes... the rest of the girls may have had Dawson or whatever Creek hanging on they're walls, but oh no not me, for me it was all about the Fox.. fox mulder.

All I can say about the movie I saw today is simply that it doesn't disappoint, not a single place in the movie drops from it's advertised glory.. it delivers exactly what it promised too.
So if you wanted to go see it and weren't sure, then wait no more, flee to your local moving picture plaza and take a seat, you wont be disappointed.

I'm feeling better....
I just finished watching SERENITY, after already somewhat familiarizing myself with FIRE FLY.... it's scary how much of my own style I see in both show and film, leaving me to only hope there is still room in that world for one more... On the other side of thought, I realize my friends feel no need to shelter me from anything... not Brother Bear and not Serentity. ...
Oh well INXS' SWITCH is getting me through...

I've been driving a bus... Yeah I know! Go Figure... and as long as it's not in reverse I'm actually pretty good... I KNOW! WHO'D OF THOUGHT RIGHT?
It's ok, I would have lost that bet too

And of course Titus last Saturday did not disappoint, all new bit and he said some things that I had been saying for well over a year or two now... and not all of it was obvious... which I know doesn't mean I'm not crazy, but it does mean I'm not alone.. so yay me. Though I understand what all he is saying when he says it and such, but because I'm not where he is in his life, like I'm not married, no kids yet, and neither of my parents have killed themselves or anyone else, but have come close once or twice, I can understand and laugh along, but not relate as much as I have to his earlier stuff.
But y'know what???
I can't wait until I'm as equally blessed enough so I can.

A little bit of a peek at my soul is all ya'll get for now, Going to sign off here before I really show a venerable side.

Cheers Darlings

So Sick For So Long

Oh, I have been so sick, and I'm still gradually getting better. And on top of that my sister has actually managed to keep the same sleeping schedule I have... except she heads to be before I do and I have to break my sleep for about 3 hours to take care of my morning shift. So needless to say she's on almost the entire time I'm awake. Never the less I'm thinking that Thursdays are going to be my official "catch up online" days... mostly because all my friends are busy and nothings on TV.

So news.. news.. news... Well I did get my permit finally, now the scary actual bus driving begins.. Monday - can you imagine me in the drivers seat of a 30 foot long yellow bus. I know I'm having a hard time with it already, but if I want to GROW UP, I gotta start somewhere, and a decent paying job is usually a good start.
And that's another thing I saw the movie "FAILURE TO LAUNCH" and sadly Nik and I and even though A wasn't around - we could relate to the 3 single guys still living at home - And believe it or not I don't relate to McConaughey's character - I actually relate to Bartha's character more. and Nik to the Nature Boy of the movie. And of course as funny as the movie was, it still left us wondering, thinking surely we wont all be still living under our parents roof, physically or proverbial at 35! I mean at least one of us has to make it out alive and with a decent social life in tact.... right?

And in other news, I'm going to see Christopher Titus Saturday night with Nik, A and 'Batman' as he now refers to himself as. Nik, Batman and I are just big fans and I think it will be a nice way to show A that things in life could be allot worse, but with the subtle humor that keeps things interesting.

Outside of that I just purchased a lap top, sure it needs some tweaking, but it'll be perfect by the time I sit down and start on that 2nd draft of my book.

And I'm still looking into fully revamping this site and such, after I can balance out my sleep cycle a bit.

Thats all for now.......
