a morning away
saturday, april 6, 2002
yes, i am, well, a-way! (you have to say it like you're french) spent the night at angela's. i haven't seen her (or her house, for that matter) in weeeeeks. it's a welcome return. i "baby-sat" garrett a few hours yesterday while angela and husband went to see Blade II.
i don't think it qualifies as baby-sitting when you make the kid watch veggie-tales and dance around crazily to music instead of the other way around. garrett is always a good sport--when we pick things to watch, he lets me watch things i haven't seen before instead of insisting on something completely of his own choice. :)
a bit like angela that way. hee. she managed to tivo an airing of Quest for Fire--whoa, what a movie. it's such a.. project. it's all about that time when different stages of human evoluted were running about, complete with specially made up languages and lots of violent thwacking each other to death.
it's really coo.. i was sceptic at first, because, well, no-real-dialogue movie with a lot of monkey-men bonking on each other with tree-branches and crushing skulls to steal another tribe's fire.. not my cup of tea. but then there was an actual romantic development, and it's wonderful, and awww! so. it's a very unusual film. i'm glad i saw it. warning: lots of random drastic animally sex! :)
speaking of sex, angela was also kind enough to tivo the mtv special on 'goth sex".. i just watched it (good breakfast tv). heh. there's just something lame about people visibly getting off on telling themselves that they are doing something that "mainstream america" people are not. one girl got visibly excited imagening the horror of a white-bread, blonde christian mom hearing of the things the girl'd do in bed (or out of it, rather).
y'know. somewhere along the line of maturing, i just got over that superiority complex. and i've learnt that white-bread blonde christian mom's aren't necessarly less kinky in their sex-life. i have a feeling that they could freak out plenty of gothed-out "we have crazy sex! and fangs!" teens more than the reverse if it really came down to it.
and for the love of.. the central nerve system, stop getting fake fangs and chewing on necks!! even if the skin doesn't break, you can still sever or mess up nerves inside the neck, or rupture blood vessels, and the neck is _not_ the place where you want to have either of those happen. and did you miss the part where the human mouth is _not_ the cleanest place on earth to open up a wound with?
sigh. what would i do without silly mtv specials? :) (i still fondly remember the one on "furries" and vh-1's fanclub episode for stevie nicks fans.) alright. must do laundry, and hope my e-mail comes back up. cin cin. �� 10:10 a.m.
