The voices of angels, what they would sound like as raw feed information; explaining my theories on hotel rooms and the gideon bible; the differential inherent in friends and chosen family. I suppose I should explain why I woke in such a dreary mood the other day. When I say I woke with a nosebleed, what I really meant was that I opened my eyes, choked, and watched red fountain arc parabola up then splatter down on me. In spite of being <i>quite<\/i> the interesting visual effect, it wasn&#8217;t a pleasant way to greet the day. Sitting up, my mouth flooded again and again cut off all the air. More bloody mess. By the time I&#8217;d barefooted my way to the cold bathroom, I was less than impressed with myself and the blood dripping through my hair, caught in my eyelashes and down my thighs. I felt like a badly cut scene from a horror film. <i>Well, the special effects were pretty, but it wasn&#8217;t enough to rescue the acting.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Speaking of atrocious cine, as part of yesterday&#8217;s twenty-four hours of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/legacyofty\/\">Tyler<\/a>, we sat through the sequel to the Ring. I say no, do not do this. There are a few moments where it&#8217;s like they collared a local arts major into directing a few shots, but they&#8217;re not pretty enough to make the other hour and fourty-five worth the price of admission. We, however, were lucky enough not to pay for our random moments of vicious deer attack, as we&#8217;d met up with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/mgoodbar\">Matthew<\/a> for lunch and he sent us off with a movie pass to help while the time between his wanderin&#8217; off and his wanderin&#8217; back for our evening of Elementary Introduction to <a href=\"http:\/\/imdb.com\/title\/tt0118736\/\">Six String Samurai<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Tyler and I get along exceptionally well. It&#8217;s like we&#8217;ve stumbled upon another one of Us. We, the sane, do hereby declare that the aforementioned isn&#8217;t a trick, but honesty. We have a shield of worth and we&#8217;ll walk all over you by accident. It&#8217;s fun this way, walking down the street arm and arm, skipping loudly to the 7-11 for a slurpee, feeling it in the teeth. I respect friends who bring their own pyjama pants when they invite themselves to stay. Today we&#8217;re going to bicycle around on a quest for decent cinnamon buns. They have to be <i>gooey<\/i> to count. Now if I could only find my underwear, because gods only know where they went last night in this mess.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve got some ideas rattling around my head.
