Zydrate comes in a little glass vial
Jan. 16th, 2010 11:49 pmI totally just showed my mum Repo! The Genetic Opera and she was totally enjoying it. Bwahaha. Score another to our team. (She's perhaps not converted as I doubt she'll ever watch it again, but she was interested and entertained.)
This means I've introduced every one of my friends to Repo and all of my parents! (All meaning mum, dad and my stepmum... who apparently didn't quite enjoy it so much. Heh.) Although I miss the forum days pre-movie, but just because I can't really keep up with stuff now because there's so many people and things there.
Noithing makes for a good night like a bottle of wine and Repo! and I am quite happily buzzed. Except no one else seems to be online to keep me entertained. You bastards.
Hahaha, mum just came back out and said "save me some pictures of that graverobber man and set one as my desktop... and I wouldn't mind if it was the Repo Giles either." She is SO caught.

New Year's Resolutions are for pussies.(1)
It's currently 11.14pm and I have spent the night cleaning things while everyone else I know is out partying because they are young whippersnappers and I am an ancient crone.
Yada yada yada life - visiting mum was awesome, although she did keep giving me things to bring home which meant we had to go buy a bigger suitcase to fit all said things in. We watched lots of good movies - Aliens, Sherlock Holmes, Zombieland and lots of... erm, not so good movies, like Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus.(2) I had drinkings and shoppings and then had to get up early for planeings :/
Got to Melbourne and there was no Lewi and Lara despite the latter making very excited noise previously about the fact that it was to the Circe Day. I wandered about and collected my luggage and attempted not to FLIP RIGHT OUT(3) that something horrible had happened to them and they were DEAD. Luckily it turns out they weren't and all was well and I walked around Melbourne malls for hours not purchasing anything made of liquid.
I have a goat that yodels.
Tomorrow I have to go get groceries since there's not really much in the house and I didn't do it today. I made tea when I got home last night and realised, crap!, there wouldn't be any milk. Open fridge with longing and caution and JOY! there was milk! So I poured it into my waiting tea and found it slightly more... solid than one might like. Lumpy milk is not a friend.
The tea had to go away in shame.
I am on Alison's computer as mine is currently with Tim getting itself completely nuked from orbit as it is not so healthy. But hopefully soon it will rise again and I'll give it a suitably zombieish new name(4) and I shall sit in front of the TV watching DVDs and drinking lumpless milk and eating Christmas chocolates of all sorts.
11.24pm now. Happy New Year in advance. I hope 2010 drunkenly comes onto you at midnight and wakes up naked in your bed before having to do the walk of shame in front of all the other years. Don't worry about it, 2010. They've all been there.
(1) But maybe I should attempt to eat slightly less crap...
(2) THIS WAS ALL MY MOTHER'S CHOICE, I SWEAR TO ALL THINGS HOLY AND UNHOLY.
(3) Attempts were terrible. Almost cried with relief on Lewi but I can blame half of this on being very tired and very hungry.
(4) Maybe Terrance.

I deleted* my Facebook. I AM FREE OF YOUR FASCIST SOCIETY NOW.

Tonight there was an informal sewing group in the living room as we all try and finish garb before Canterbury Faire. (Oh man, so close. How much can I not wait for nine days of medievalness? The answer is A LOT.) I am not even half way around hemming the skirt on my GIANT freaking gown. It's going to take forever but it will be worth it. Everyone loves a huge skirt.
After sewing we didn't do much. Oh, except that we watched Repo!! OH MY GOD, FOR THE FRACKING WIN! :D It made me happy in my pants and in my soul. (The bits with Anthony Stewart Head singing and being evil made me especially happy in the pants region.)
How tempted am I to watch it again later tonight?SO VERY MUCH Not at all. Nope. None.
Musical and Medieval both start with an M. M is clearly awesome.

Aug. 13th, 2008 03:01 amDammit! I missed seeing the Christchurch-based zombie movie at the film festival. Did anyone else in this fair city manage to go see it, and if so what did you think? It looked like it could have been a lot of fun. Very Shaun of the Dead but with added New Zealand.
I might drag Alison along to see Teeth because, lol, vagina dentata. And she wants to go see Let The Right One In which may or may not be about vampires, as I wasn't listening all that well when she told me about it.
The movie that should be showing is Repo! because, dammit, I'm way too excited about that muscial. But considering the fact that it is apparently only going to be opening on ten screens across the US, looks like I'll be waiting for DVD for this one. Bastards. But, mmmm, Anthony Steward Head should always sing. That man is so damn sexy. The Graverobber is also very hot. (And he reminds me of Alexei a lot.)

LFoD drinkies tonight means I have to clean my room. As one can understand this is a horrible thing for me to face and I have to remove to poets so I can vacuum. (Rats? Strangely not fond of the very loud sucking machine. Who would have thought it?) Uuuuugh, task too daunting. Abort. Abort.
Slave auction and party last night was pretty damn awesome even if I was - shock horror - sober. (See, mum? Totally not a drunk ;P) Had heaps of fun actually and did my regular trick of stealing leather jackets from the nearest male. It remains one of my very favourite games.
I want to end this on something really witty, but alas I have nothing.
EDIT: Hats make me look like a twat.
Rock on, my bitches.

May. 1st, 2008 11:44 amOh fingers, why you so cold?
There is a rat balanced rather precariously upon my head. He's going to fall and he knows it, which is why he keeps burying his claws in my scalp. Ow, Byron! He needs to learn to remain in more comfortable places. Not very bright is he.
Everyone is out now and the house is stupidly quite, which means I require music. And now that that's fixed in a minute I'm about to call someone to ask about an Othello audition. Because, mmmm, Othello. I haven't done any proper acting since high school so it's very possible I suck at it by now but, hey, it's just an audition. No harm in that. I wish I still had the singing voice I used to in my earlyish teens because then I could do muuusicals. I loves me some musicals.
Alison and I got out the first season of Queer As Folk last week and it was awesome, especially in the deja vu kind of way. Man, I used to love that show so much. I am discovering I am still quite fond. Jen got sucked into it as well toward the end of the season and now both she and Ali and flailing over Season Finale Dramah. It's funny ;D And then we watched the first episode of Dexter (with bubbly!) when it was on the telly the other night. Good, although I'm not yet sure what I make of it. I shall withhold judgement until I've seen a few more.
Sena brought around the latest episode of SPN and I now can't get the silly fake theme song out of my head:
Ghost, Ghost Facers! We go the places where the others will not!
Ghost, Ghost Facers! We stay in the kitchen when the kitchen gets hot!
Heh heh heh.
And, oh! The Sarah Conner Chronicles are going to start soon! Fuck yeah! I'm really hoping it's going to be good. Please wipe all memory of that terrible third film from my mind.

Apr. 6th, 2008 04:20 pmDrinkies the other night were awesome. Much of this opinion may be because of the fact that we got to write 'OWNED' on the face of someone who passed out. We told him he was lucky we didn't shave an eyebrow off. American Mike now swears vengeance against 'that ninja' but we all know he'll never manage it. No one out ninjas the ninja.
And now I'm tired because I stayed up all night reading Fight Club, which was written in a way that made me think I was more tired than I was. (I also couldn't see the characters as any one but who played them in the movie, even though I still haven't seen it in it's entirety.)
Tonight we're going to watch Spiceworld. This is not a joke however much you wish it was. Oh yes, Spiceworld. I can quote this movie. Oh, the mispent days of my youth! There may have to be drinking to go along with this.
(Tim! Now that Batman is all done, Indiana Jones?)
