Totally unfair fucking with me

So I'm watching Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex because that show is straight up fucking awesome, and this ep in particular (Portraitz) really got me going. It looks like they're revealing a big fat clue as to who or what the Laughing Man is. Very very cool.

Well, except for the fact that at the very end of it there's this 3 line message written on a baseball mitt that I know is important in some way, only they don't leave it up long enough for me to read it. Fuckers. So come on - what was the message? I'm dying to know!

So yes, I did indeed make it home in one piece. The flights home were basically uneventful, I only had to deal with a bumpy ride while coming in for a landing in Albuquerque. So now I've got to use the next week to figure out how I'm gonna get the house back in order.

And, of course, that annoying feeling that I always get when I'm going somewhere, that one that tells me that I forgot something somewhere, was entirely correct. I left every one of the shirts on hangers that I'd hung up right out of sight where they would be easy to lose. Feh.

It's rather nice to be back home. I do certainly miss the random activities and having a nice revolving selection of people to meet and greet, but there's something to be said about being in your own domain. Plus I was getting tired of sleeping by myself.

I have mistaken my date of departure countless times. In case you have not yet heard, I am not leaving on Sunday the 5th but Friday the 3rd.

Yes, I am a dumbass.

You know, it did actually go by the booth where I work at, but I had to watch it from the elevated porch outside our tent-door hooch. I didn't shimmy to ring my cowbell because I'd gotten out of costume as soon as I was off at 2.

Peep under the kilt...

Bus!

Anyway, we broke out the Mage Knight figures, a small pile of d6s apiece, and had a rousing game of...

Shadowrun! Wolf loaded up Pistolero for me because it was the perfect theme song, and Smedge and that crazy Chuco took care of some crazy gangers in the Barrens. The opposing mage ran a car at them, but made the mistake of firing a huge powerball in front of him and crashed himself more than he trashed the two PCs. Took us a few hours to set up, deliberate, and play out 4 rounds of combat. Maybe a couple minutes.

Geekery, I know. It's been a while since I've had to coordinate so many cubes and things. I need to wrap this one up soon. May have to come up with a plot twist. Did I tell you that they geeked one of the main NPCs I'd made up? Outright blasted him on this woman's voicemail. That's harsh, yo!

My stupid thing tied with the FrogZard. Why did I get a fucking bee?

You haven't seen Kung Fu Hustle yet? WTF is wrong with you? Go!

Having the theatre to just us (also wic Shygirl n Laz) was grand. I could have had an aneurysm in there...

Anyway - go, now!

Movie binge

Topic: Brain candy
Had a rather lazy day today and managed to catch up on some of my cinematics.

Watched the Spongebob Squarepants Movie around noon. Giggled my ass off through most of it. Not much to say about it though - if you think Spongebob is stupid then it's a movie length mess of stupid. Pretty much what I expected, which is a good thing.

After that (and a brunch break, etc...) we peeped out Nausicaa (+ umlaut), which is this rather involved little anime flick. I just love that Miyazaki dude - he can take some of the hokiest ideas that would drive me nuts in any other movie, and just make them into these amazing things. Fun fun watch, with some great ideas and visuals.

Then, just to spice things up, we took a quick drive over to the little ghetto theatre near here and hit the Hitchhiker's Guide. Again, giggled through most of the movie. It wasn't 100% - they did that damn romantic angle thing and I'm still not totally with the Mos Def as Ford thing (I mean he did play it up strange and quite bland, which seems to be the Ford Prefect I ought to expect...), but in all I would say it's basically faithful to the Guide. Plus the effects were rather zippy.

My testicles are going to explode by the time I get home. There will be no visit from the hubby this year, on account of injury. Now I am glad that he's going to keep off his foot and keep it up while it heals. Gods know I don't want him any more broken than he already is. But now I've got a month left, surrounded every weekend by man candy, and little relief in sight. Oy...

I might have to get me a dart gun and find some helpless victim at Faire to aim it at. I mean, it's not like I can bring a bottle of Wild Turkey on site with me. Anybody know a good hypnotist?

Can't exactly argue...

You May Be a Bit Schizotypal ...

A bit odd and socially isolated. You couldn't care less of what others think. And some of your beliefs are a little weird. Like that time you thought you were Jesus.
