Not much new.
Been listening to all possible Crowbar to psyche me up for the show.
"Broken Glass" is SUCH an exceptional album.
Might almost be better than "Time Heals Nothing," but, dude, what HAPPENED to Crowbar???
After 1997 they just started releasing such crappy albums left and right like they don't give a shit... they turned into sludge metal and I can't stand that shit. I want it fast, heavy, aggressive and brutal...
Woke up yesterday to a FUCKING PARKING TICKET on my car!!!!!!!!!
In my usual spot, too!
So, instead of giving the City of St. Louis that $25 (which I'll need to drink heavily at the Pro-Pain/Crowbar show) I'm contesting that motherfucker!!!!!
Also, I'm contesting the math requirement that Webster imposes on me. I need to get a B or above in a fucking MATH class in order to fulfill their core requirement to get certified to teach... high school ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!
Does that make sense to ANYone else???
I took a math class (on really abstract and obscure methods) and got a fuckin' D in it, which shot my GPA down from a 3.999 to a 3.7!
Goth girl of my dreams (from Camille La Vie) walked past my store TWICE yesterday and I'm still too big of a coward to say something or do anything.
I think at this point she's taunting me cuz, really, there's no damn reason for her to walk past my store. She could just go up the escalator by her store and walk directly to the food court upstairs... and she always looks in at me when she passes. Probably cuz I'm sneaking hopeful glances at her and smiling all stupid and huge, but whatever.
Dude, a coupla weeks ago Johnny Depp was on the cover of Entertainment Weekly (to which the store has a subscription... I normally don't read that shit, but it's good bathroom reading...OK, moving on...). The point is: Johnny Depp is a fucking piece of ass, man!
Any heterosexual man in the world can admit this,.
I don't care how homophobic you are (if you're close-minded and ignorant enough to be that way) every guy wants a piece of Depp.
I, for one, would go gay JUST to get a poke at him.
Actually, I have a list of dudes I would homo-out for:
1.) Johnny Depp
2.) Antonio Banderas (ONCE UPON A TIME IN MEXICO was a total bonerfest for me)
3.) Taye Diggs
4.) Hugh Jackman (yeah, VAN HELSING sucked! But who wouldn't wanna get it on with Wolverine?)
5.) Tommy Lee (did you SEE the Pam&Tommy video??)
6.) Christian Bale (whether super-skinny like in THE MACHINIST or buff like EQUILIBRIUM... the dude just has it goin' on?)
Well, now that I've totally exposed my homoerotic tendencies (which was no secret to begin with) I think I should probably do some work...
However, I did rewatch the Russian vampire movie THE NIGHTWATCH the other night and for anyone who likes beautiful, artful, crazy horror flicks with style, substance and originality I seriously suggest you check it out. It's a nice mixture of Stephen Norrington (DEATH MACHINE, BLADE), Alex de la Iglesia (DAY OF THE BEAST, THE COMMONWEALTH), and Clive Barker.
I woulda said there's some Peter Jackson thrown in there... but Jackson, in his early days, was a bit too wacky (DEAD ALIVE and BAD TASTE and whatnot). The humor in NIGHTWATCH is definitly more dark humor along the lines of, say, ACCION MUTANTE or DAY OF THE BEAST... Dammit! I love Alex de la Iglesia!
That guy needs to make more movies!
'Cuz DAY OF THE BEAST is one of my all time favorites!
Oh, AND I finally started writing again!
However, my copy of Final Draft 6 acts up a bit from time to time.
Hopefully I won't have any serious problems with it.
It just feels good to write in my new place... Without any distractions, without any interruptions.
And next I begin work on my 3rd novel.
I already have the paperwork filled out for when I copyright it.
If you're an artist then creating your art is truly the only thing that will keep you sane.
Everything else is just vanity...
