Still getting used to this. I am not very eloquent. Don't expect too much.
I will post some "top fifteen" lists.
I will rant on about stuff.
I will clog up your internets with junk.

Well last night was the first dream I could remember when I woke up since... Thursday.
I dreamed I was on one of those reality/elimination cooking shows. It was like a cross between Heck's Kitchen and Chopped. I kept thinking that I did not belong there. In my dream, I knew that I had passed some number of rounds and there were 6 of us left. (I only know this my counting the number of stations remaining around the funky grill-sort-of-thing.) It was a disaster. I had made my dish (entrée) ...More Read More

Top Fifteen Movie Songs 5/15 (in no particular order that I will admit to):
05) "Dare To Be Stupid"
Performed by 'Weird Al' Yankovic
Film: Transformers: The Movie - the first one.

If you've seen the movie, you know this is on the junk world. I can't imagine a better song for the scene... but I am not sure that part wasn't spawned from listening to the song. I mean, I like Weird Al. I was already familiar with several of his songs. I am "too young" for the original Transformers series, ...More Read More

Words by Graham Chapman and John Cleese

FIlm: Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)

I had seen some Monty Python before seeing Holy Grail (Penguin on the telly, Spanish inquisition, confuse-a-cat, funniest joke) (and many ...More Read More

Woke in the kitchen again yesterday, and just a little bit ago in the bathroom.

Day 200 - and my Birthday. (Yeah, when creating my f*net id, I botched the date and it won't let me fix it.)
Sixteen.
Sweet Sixteen and never been kissed.
Okay, yeah, I have been kissed, but that is just about it.

I don't feel much like posting much today, so, I'm going to take a break today - maybe. I don't know - didn't really post yesterday either.

That's on the to-do?
Home-made buritos and nachos ...More Read More

Well.... Kitchen again this morning. I am starting to grow weary of this. The stove burners (they were off, of course) left peculiar "dents" on some of the squishier parts of my anatomy. Never had sheet-wrinkles like this before.

Toast.

got dressed.

Back to my room and my laptop had no power. no light on the brick, battery dead. No music to keep me company during my footwork.

got undressed and back to sleep for a while.

Got dressed again and back to the living room to use th ...More Read More

01) "Gimme the Prize (Kurgan's Theme)"
Performed by Queen

Okay, we all know the film. "There can be only one."
There, officially, was not a soundtrack for the film (until I don't know when), but the Queen CD "A Kind of Magic" has the songs, plus "One Vision" from the film Iron Eagle.
UNFORTUNATELY - "Hammer to Fall" is not on the CD because it was a previously released Que ...More Read More

Bah... woke up in the bathroom this morning - (sorta)sitting on the counter. This could get weird.
Dreamed I was riding my bike. Taking stuff all over town. This makes sense. I picked up Virtual Light again. The dream had its issues.
>> Walked in to this one building to deliver a letter and, turning the corner, the hallway became the belly of a B29 Superfortress and I was in my old nightgown. <<
It went downhill from there.
Like it normally does.
The way recurring nightmares tend to d ...More Read More

About Me
I am currently sixteen years old, but I expect that will change, eventually - maybe. I started fencing about 4 years ago, with varying levels of competitiveness. I mostly fence for health reasons (stress, fitness, sanity; well, 2 of 3 isn't too bad.) The club where I fence is kinda limited on the schedule, so several of us get together on our own. I teach a little kids fencing class at the local community centre, but it is a small town, so it doesn't always make. I was infected with HIV in 2000, when I was about 7. I am living with it and have a descent life – or I should say most of the issues I have were pre-existing. I managed to control things with diet and exercise, but since about 2005, my immune system surrendered and I started my chemical regime. During the school year I live with my dad and in the summer I stay with my mom. Except this year - staying with Dad. They get along ok as long as they do not have to live together – in the same city. Alaska is kinda big, so they can manage to be in the same state. I like reading I like cycling I like music I like school, but not so much the people in it... myself included because I am evil, just so you know. Sometimes I have issues and whatnot going on in my life and whatnot and I will sometimes blog about it, but mostly I like making Top Fifteen lists. Just search for "Top Fifteen" and you can skip the malarkey. :edit:To day is my sixteenth birthday and I thought I would update this About Me part:/edit:
