That previous entry was nowhere near done, I left before it was finished and I have reason to believe my sister posted it. The ending before I left stated "I am Vicki durrr", and it was deleted in favor of "I AM VICKI I AM STUPID HAHAHA!!!!!! durr", similar in flavor, but still a very different thing. Accusations will be leveled upon her return.

Today I attempt to explain art as I see it. I feel I am in a fairly qualified position, having suffered through VADA and their tyrannical integration of art and academics in addition to my experiences as a jaded traveler. I am also feeling very pompous today.

First on my list, 1793 "Death of Marat". Indeed, this is a fine piece of work, depicting ( Read more... )

Did I mention I saw Doomsday a while back? Cause I did. Yes, I know, with jewels such as 10,000 BC, Doomsday, and the Bank Job, how could I pick just one? But I did, the promise of a plague post-apocalyptic action flick was too much for me to pass up.

When I saw the preview for Doomsday I naturally assumed that it was a bastardized jumble of 29 Days ( Read more... )

Since it looks like a lot of people are in the poetic mood I'm going to try one myself

The ticklings in my throat, they itch and catch
Causing wheezing dry and fruitless-
No phlem for me to expel, why macrophages, why?
From the sour looks and narrowed eyes I duck
In my little lab I shall hide
Disguised by the sound of the vacuum ovens
As I spread ( Read more... )

Found in Nippur, Babylonia, these bowls contain some of the most lengthy and explicit references to Lilith up to this point. Of the 40 bowls which were excavated, 26 explicitly mentioned the figure of Lilith, and at least three of these bowls contain sketches of Lilith as their central ( Read more... )

I'm doing better, although I fear I may have developed a runny nose. I've spent a while downloading and sorting manga which always makes me feel better. Mindless organization and foolish stories are immensely distracting which I've needed lately. It probably sounds cold and heartless, but it brings me some measure of happiness which I figure I do ( Read more... )

Today is O Fortuna day. I love that song, in fact I loved it so much it was the accompaniment to that horrible project Susanna and I had in Dawson's class (You still have a copy?) Agreed upon in the cesspools of the internet I visit, Carmina Burana really only has one song of note - The Carmina Burana song = O Fortuna. It has that epic dramatic ( Read more... )

    I'm back from Florida! I was not killed and left in the thick cypress forests of the South as I feared, although I will take this moment to note that Susanna's marvelously awesome house has not one, but TWO flocks of buzzards that live by it. MASSIVE FLOCKS. That sure was exciting...knowing that if I'm killed and left in the woods the carrion ( Read more... )

Its coming Halloween, and for my very favorite holiday, I am moody and upset which only makes me deeply unhappy since I /ought/ to be giddily happy. What other day is it not only acceptable, but expected to dress up and eat candy until queezy ( Read more... )
