Bitsy

UH HEY WHAT'S UP IN THIS SHIT

TUMBLR DIED AND NOW I'M BACK

I NEED TO BE CREATIVE AGAIN FUCK MY ENTIRE LIFE

for real can anybody mainline me a gifset i'm going into withdrawal

Oh shit.

Pokemon Yellow ROM and a good emulator for Mac.

Doomed.

DOOMED.

Oh shit.

Watching Interview With A Vampire.

Oh god I love this movie so much.

Here we go. :D

...So today I learned that the VHS copy of "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" that I watched over and over in the '80s was highly expurgated and censored. I had no idea. None. Only fifteen minutes in and I've already seen three scenes that weren't in my VHS copy. All three of them very adult and scary in tone.

I mean. The three children. Had an aunt. Who got killed by a German bombing raid in London. I never knew that.

The nosy postmistress, the gruff general, the slimy little coward of a vicar...holy cow these are GREAT CHARACTERS that hardly appeared in the copy I watched as a kid.

...I MEAN PROFESSOR BROWN HAS AN INTRO SONG of course he has like six or seven others but that one I'd never heard.

I really hope it was edited due to length on the VHS tape and not censored because this full movie is so much better.

I'm utterly fascinated.

More shenanigans re: mom's ongoing battle with spam.

"WHAT'S AN SSL CERTIFICATE THIS GUY EMAILS ME EVERY DAY SAYING I NEED ONE TO GET ON FACEBOOK I DON'T LIKE THIS WHAT'S GOING ON."

This led into a very long and involved conversation about how google spiders work, how bots work, and why Facebook is the evil empire when it comes to selling personal data.

She turns to me and says "So...this Justin guy who emails me every day, he's not a real person?"

"Do you know him personally?"

"Well, no."

"Then he's likely a bot, mom."

"...what's that?"

...................and then I smashed my head repeatedly into drywall the end.

TO DO TOMORROW

-Trip to comic book store.
-Trip to BevMo.
-Laundry.
-NAP. God a nap. I have been craving more and more sleep this week and I'm going to get it.

Okay. If I like it or not, I'm going to really buckle down on writing that book of mine. It may end up being overwritten and so purple it's stinking, but I'm writing it.

SO. NEW WORLD ORDER.

I'm allowed one hour for MC. And another two for RP. I'm going to pay up my Rimmer account so I can use it to generate a new code and get another writing journal here. I will then proceed to write the novel in entries so I can access it from both home and work. (Home computer is a Mac, work computer is PC, I don't want to have to fuck around with dueling formats and thumb drives, etc.)

Writing at work can only happen at certain times on certain days (i.e. can't do it during VIP tours or dispatch board, but the rest of the time...).

Now I wonder if DW has a phone app like LJ does? If I can take notes with my phone and post them to the journal that would be amazing. Then I could conceivably write during my VIP lunches. Hmm.

I'm still debating if I want anybody reading along. I'd love constructive criticism, but I also don't want to put too much of it out there for possible theft reasons. We'll see how it goes. (Could be that nobody wants to read it anyway, so that would be pointless.)

And after that...well, finish the damn thing first, Bitsy, and then go from there. One step at a time.

Oh crap. Distraction from depression.

1.8 went live today and I had no idea.

I'm like LA LA LA PLAYING SIMS SOCIAL

DUMMY

/crawls into MC and never comes out

lol hormones

Last night was my first softball game in over a decade.

I wore my London Jets t-shirt and giggled inwardly.

I also pulled a groin muscle, and ow.

I got to keep my father's copy of Atlas Shrugged.

It's paperback, and I'll probably never read it. I've got my own hardback copy after all, that he signed for me, engraved for me.

Beth - A is A. Love Dad, Christmas '99.

A is A. A thing is itself. Over a decade ago, he gave me a beautiful hard-bound copy of the book that totally changed my life, and changed the way I think about the world.

I have two copies now.

I wish I still only had one.

I cannot wait for the new Muppet movie.

It's so not the same without Jim Henson, but god, I still love the Muppets with all my heart. Seeing the Muppet theater at Disney's California Adventure for the first time a few years ago was a highlight of my insipid little life. I actually started crying when I walked into that venue. I must have looked a total tit to the attendants when I did so.

Oh well. Others wait for superhero movies or Harry Potter...I line up for Muppets.
