I was born once, and have been alive ever since

I can hear that fucking thumping still, which I now attribute to the neighbor's fucking stereo, which is alarming since, uh, it seems to be reverberating quite loudly through two concrete walls. It's occured to me that I probably should have been a jock. I was about as athletic as possible when I was a kid, up until I was given a computer and taken away from my friends and into homeschool and developed "fake friends"(not my preferred term) online. Bizzarely, I still feel like I should be athletic. I'm fat, but I don't feel .. Like I should be? I still feel athletic, though at this point I've spent so many years sitting on my ass that I am completely and hopelessly uncoordinated. I just eat too much. I think maybe if I did 10 situps every time I rerolled a new ADOM character .. I would die. Maybe we'll make that 3 situps and I'll probably be in shape in about a week.

I got a book today, "Runelords", which appeared cheesy on the cover but I opened it up and it had a rather sincere endorsement by Demigod Orson Scott Card. It seemed pretty sincere anyways, I don't recall it word for word but I was moved to believe that perhaps if he thought it was so grand that it was indeed worth a dollar. And at any rate, you're not supposed to judge a book by it's cover.I then went back and continued to freeze my fat fucking ass right the hell off for another 6 hours. If anyone tells you not to wear shorts when it's 45 degrees out, FOR GOD'S SAKE LISTEN TO THEM. Don't fucking try to argue that you don't have any long pants that fit you, no, shut up, JUST WEAR THEM BECAUSE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD YOU'RE GOING TO FUCKING FREEZE TO DEATH AT THE FLEA MARKET AND THAT IS NO PLACE FOR A MAN TO DIE

Shit, I just remembered how fucking awesome Card's shit is. I meant to pick up those other Ender's Game spinoffs, but somehow his stuff seems obscenely difficult to find in bins at the flea market and I am so not willing to pay like $50 per page to Amazon.



visit www.rathergood.com and listen to "We Like The Moon". If you've already heard it, what you need to understand is that I'm not inviting you so much as telling you to do it, so you get to hear it again anyways.

WE LIKE THE MOON
COZ IT IS CLOSE TO US
WE LIKE THE MOOOOOON!
BUT NOT AS MUCH AS A SPOON
COZ THAT'S MORE USE FOR EATING SOUP
AND A FORK ISN'T VERY USEFUL FOR THAT
UNLESS IT HAS GOT MANY VEGETABLES
AND THEN YOU MIGHT BE BETTER OFF WITH A
CHOP-STICK
UNLIKE THE MOON
IT IS UP IN THE SKY
IT'S UP THERE VERY HIGH
BUT NOT AS HIGH
AS MAYBE
DIRIGIBLES OR ZEPELLINS
OR LIGHTBULBS
AND MAYBE CLOUDS
AND PUFFINS ALSO I THINK MAYBE
THEY GO QUITE HIGH TOO
MAYBE NOT AS HIGH AS THE MOON
COZ THE MOON IS VERY HIGH
WE LIKE THA MOON
THA MOON IS VERY USEFUL EVERYONE
EVERYBODY LIKE THA MOON
BECAUSE IT LIGHT UP THA SKY AT NIGHT
AND IT LOVELY
AND IT MAKES THE TIDE GO AND WE LIKE IT
BUT NOT AS MUCH AS CHEESE
WE REALLY LIKE CHEESE WE LIKE ZEPELLINS
WE REALLY LIKE THEM
AND WE LIKE KELP AND WE LIKE MOOSE
AND WE LIKE DEER AND WE LIKE MARMOTS
AND WE LIKE ALL THE FLUFFY ANIMALS
WE REALLY LIKE THA MOON

I didn't even realize until I got done typing that out, and yes I typed it all the way out manually, the relevance of it to tonight because of the Lunar Eclipse! Which I couldn't see, because God is gathering all the clouds in the world over us in preparation for another Great Flood! Except he's just going to make it REALLY FUCKING COLD first and not give me any fucking instructions on how to build a goddamn ARK.

I really need to download that recording thing again and record an MP3 of me singing that, and post it on Kazaa as the new Britney Spears song or something. I think I'll need to get a little drunk off my ass before I do something like that, but wouldn't the life-long humiliation if it actually caught and spread be worth it?

I get to drive the car in the morning so I guess I need to actually go to bed now like I told myself I was doing about half an hour ago. I need to be nice and awake and prepared to scream in horror and cover my face when the car locks up while I'm careening towards a train or a brick wall or the moon.
