i leave you with this wonderful abortion comic book from the seventies.

predictably enough, there is nothing to say.
in other news, i had a co-worker, who was formerly president of the national ghost story society, critique "the roman boyfriend". he liked it a lot and said that after a few edits, it would definitely be ready for publication.
i'm leaving for maryland on thursday and will be gone until next tuesday, if anyone needs to know that for some reason.
that's right. julie andrews.
now, this is a sore spot with me. at the beginning of our relationship, steve told me that i reminded him a lot of julie andrews- in victor, victoria. this hurt me greatly. i don't like being androgynous, goddammit. androgyny is advantageous when it's being implemented by japanese men, and basically no one else. julie andrews would have never scored with an austrian nobleman in real life a la "sound of music" because she looks like a fucking man. in fact, if it wasn't for her exceptional vocal talents, she'd probably be working a low paying retail job, like myself, being told that she resembles elton john, like myself.
oh, and my other photo matches were hilary swank and sandra bullock. BOTH chicks who look like dudes. it's been an exceptionally foul evening all around.
i'm not kidding. i didn't tamper with the results in any way; i swear. here's the photo i submitted:
and here's the one it most resembles, evidently:
ouch.

go there. savor the flavour.
Lamb starvation, the number one killer of lambs, often is associated with lack of shepherding. Contributing causes:
- A "genetic will to die." Actually, the majority of lambs die for no apparent reason. A genetically caused lack of vitality may well be the cause.
there's your thought for the day.

i was trying to explain to a german tourist what a mullet was ("it's an ugly hairstyle. you know, short up front...") when the fire alarm went off. i assumed it was a drill, but then i heard someone screaming at the customers to get out. and that was when i knew something fun was about to happen.
evidently, a radiator exploded by the north entrance, sending boiling water everywhere and leaking into the electrical wiring. not one but five fire trucks showed up, while we stood outside in freezing temperatures, trying to figure out if they were going to send us home or not and watching an inch-deep puddle creep slowly across the floor. about an hour and a half later, we got a call from the gm, telling us to get in there and clean up because we were going to stay open come hell or high water (no pun intended.) i'd wasted my lunch hour standing outside in a snow drift, and the german never got his "mullet rock" compilation.
seriously, it was almost as good as when a group of kids got trapped in the elevator on harry potter night.

Oh Great Cthulhu!
I have been an extremely diligent devotee this year.
In May, I stopped
treylis from defiling Lovecraft's grave (-20 points). When the stars were right, I rescued
inlaterdays from being sacrificed (-200 points). In November, I recruited
djdayglo as a new cultist (30 points). Last week, I defiled the grave of that traitor, Lovecraft (90 points). In April, I called down the wrath of Yog-Sothoth upon
inlaterdays (65 points). In June, I fed
nepenthe01 to a Shoggoth (250 points).
In short, I have been very good (215 points) and deserve to be promoted to High Priest.
Your humble and obedient servant,
mourningwood
Submit your own plea to Cthulhu!

1. mourningwood, because i thought it was witty at the time.
2. "a loud noise in ancient rome", because a few years ago, i had a dream that i was invited to a roman-themed party at hannibal lecter's mansion. in the dream, there were tents set up all over the house, and there was a constant loud pulsing noise that echoed through the rooms. plus, ancient rome is cool.
3. "bright lights at hannibal's party", because of aformentioned dream; also, because it's confusing.
4. "we in the tent orgy": see question #2
5. robert aickman, because he's the shit. what, did you think it was that guy from weezer?
genesis p-orridge is dead, yall.
I killed a man of mine
In a small montana town
I was down by hounds
Hear the light has cried
Their voices dry and hollow
Hear the crowd cheer
They cheer me to the gallows...
4,500 words to go. i'd probably be dead if it wasn't for that stupid sex scene.
