-_- sorry I haven't posted in the last couple days guys. My grand mother finally passed on Friday morning and I've been going here and there on account of the ceremonies. 8 hours in a funeral home can get to ya > <
Yeah, Funeral homes can just be awful. Especially when you find out your allergic to embalming fluid fumes... Ugh, not fun...
Yeah, that right there kinda beats the pants off my 4 hours in a stuffy lighting booth in terms of unfunness.
I'll shut up now... sweatdrop
>.< Yikes. Lighting booth? Meses wants to know ~ Cujo-chan's stories rock!
(( gonk *has been watching the Hungarian Rómeó és Júlia on youtube and would really like to think of something amusing at other peoples' expenses))
So I get there, and I was greeted by none other than Stephen (whom I adoringly call Sven, for no apparent reason), who tells me that he was incredibly happy to see me, because he had misread his schedule, and had gotten there 4 hours earlier. I asked him: "What ever did you do to amuse yourself for that long?! Was someone else there with you?"
He says: "No. But I had a rubix cube and Pokemon Leaf Green."
Ah, and so that little mystery was solved. Rubix cubes, man. You just can't get bored if you have one to try and solve.
So together we went up to the lighting booth, where the heat of the day had sunk in, and made the air almost suffocating, as well as a veritible breeding ground for whatever diseases lurk in The Carpet. Oh, I haven't told any one about The Carpet? Well, The Carpet is this gnarly old... thing that is laid out on the floor of the lighting booth in order to muffle sound. Long ago (about 42 years, to be precise) it was a pure white shag dream, but now it's old... and golden-yellow... and quite possibly rife with fungus and the Ebola virus.
So Sven and I sat up there. Alone. With nothing but eachother and a Rubix cube. For a half hour. During this time Sven (who in four hours had become a bit of a Rubix Cube expert) would chuckle to himself while watching me get wonderously frustrated at my own vain attempts to solve the Cube (there were some spectacular explicatives used, as well as a hammer... and the wall).
Suddenly, who should pop up but Miss Cass-ADD! Yes! Finally! We get our cues!
Er, wait, no. No we don't. She hasn't been able to get around to those yet, but hey, here's a photocopy of the script with some pages missing. Sorry to interupt!
Ok. Well, at least now we've made some progress.
Half an hour until the rehersal begins. Sven and I realize that it's 6:00, and we both haven't eaten anything since lunch (10:30 for him, 11-ish for me). Oh snap! Everyone else has already gone off to Taco Hut (it's a nearby Taco Bell and Pizza Hut... COMBINED!) for dinner, leaving Sven and I (the carless wonders) stranded. Time to take action.
And I now introduce The Hungry Crew Members Dinner Program!
First step: Where did everyone else get food. You look around at the people who've returned from The Hunt and see what fastfood places they went to. This is how you assess the edibility factor. In our case, everyone went to Wendy's or McDonald's. No Taco Hut tonite. Bummer.
Second step: Beg. Usually effective if the begger is female and cute. I'm not cute, and Sven is a guy. It wouldn't work. But no big loss, neither of us care for McDonald's.
Third step: Examine your funds. Should you fail at mooching off others, then you must take drastic measures. In our case, call up Taco Hut and order a Chalupizza. Once our funds were pulled together, we found that we had $20. Ok, so no Chalupizzas. But we could get a large pepperoni pizza.
Fourth Step: Get permission. Yeah, um, Miss CassADD once fired a crew head for ordering a pizza without permission. But, that person was not Sven and there fore was not cool enough to pull it off. Miss CassADD said yes!
Fifth Step: Realize you don't know the number and then go find it. Ok, so we screwed up. We fail. We don't know the number for Taco Hut. However, we have TECHNOLOGY. Sven used a payphone to call his dad to get the number (neither of us had a cell phone tonite).
Sixth Step: Its Fast or It's free. Call up Taco Hut. Yes, Large Pepperoni. $15. Ok. Yeah. *insert school address*. What's that? Oh. That's *insert school name*. Ok. You know where that is. Ok. Yeah. Fine. Hmm? Of course we'll wait outside. 30 minutes.
So with our pizza ordered, we waited outside. We talked a bit. Mostly about anime and Pokemon, and how I want one of those box-y looking Scions so I can put paper-mache toast on the roof and paint "Toastermobile" on the side. Finally the pizza arrived, and we went with the fruits of our Hunt to the lighting booth. (unfortunately it was fast, so it was not free).
Up in the lighting booth, we thought we had it made, unaware of what was to come.
So practice starts, and Sven and I realize that out of 5 members, we're the only 2 who bothered showing up. That means that we got to be over worked. Yay.
However, with no cues, all we really had to do was turn the lights up and down at scene changes. Not to bad.
So Sven and I are chowing down on pizza while watching the play, completely absorbed by this masterful rendition of My Fair Lady (ok, so we were making fun of the girl playing Eliza because she can't sing on key), and don't notice that The Hunger has begun to settle in on some of the other cast and crew members.
Picture, if you will, one of those slasher movie scenes where all the monsters/psychotic axe murders are lurking in the shadows, unbeknownst to their victims. Suddenly, silently, they make there moves. They attack, and the victim screams, but it's to late. They're dead.
That's what happened to me. One of the actors comes up behind me and grabs my shoulder and turns me around to face him. I screamed, thinking that one of the school's cockroaches went into one of the ancient A/C ducts and mutated into a massive creature hellbent on eating poor misguided youth. I didn't realize it was just some guy asking for a piece of pizza.
And then I looked around, and watched all the actors just sort of fade in from the shadows. Just like those slasher movies I was talking about. Creepy, no?
So we just let them have it. That pizza was gone in a matter of seconds. They came. And they fed. That's what The Hunger does.
stare Vultures...
Well, after that the rest of the night went virtually incident free, save for my trip to the bathroom where I got suckered into fixing some poor actress's dress that she managed to rip. 20 minutes on a bathroom floor with a portable sewing machine while the song Disco Inferno blares on someone's stereo. Truely, I have been to hell.
Oh, and Miss CassADD got so pissed with the actors screwing up a scene that she let us out a good 10 minutes early.
But she's not as scary as my eighth grade play director who got so pissed off she threw a chair at someone. Now that was a Director!

My great grandpa ((My dad's mom's father)) died Friday night emo ... The funeral is today... I don't really know much... I think he had a stroke and was in the hospital for a week and he was at Hospice House in Anderson on Friday night... He died that night... I believe he was 94 or 95 years old...

(Ho snap. I wrote another book, didn't I?)
xd Pretty much - my day didn't go much better though. Ah, cousins - gotta love them ne? *laughs nervously*
My black clothes don't intimidate little children - they only urge them to attack, pin me to the wet grass and poor a whole bag of half mented ice ontop of me >.< Ooooh the coldness - I do nothing but humor them and they overpower me!
Yeah I had to miss school today for my funeral ((Crap, there's going to be sooo much work to make up!!)) eek But I've got something so outlandish and so unbelievable that you have to believe in my loyalty and word on this one.
Now the person who died was my step-dad's mother, and we went to burry her in a cemetary that stretches miles upon miles long. We get to the sight, and the priest says his prayers and all and we all place the roses on her coffin. After all is said and done the first other grave I look to was behind me. I looked at the name and it sayed "BOY--" and the flowers of the grave were covering the rest of it. I wondered if it was the same last name as me and walked over ((note that this is directy vertical to my grandmother's grave ... -_- and knowing what my first name is you can most likely guess my last name, you can't get any more Irish))
I look at the multiple names on the grave, that read James, Martin, Maragaret and I'm thinking, "Wow, my grandpa is named James, and my great grandma's name was Margaret ... and Martin was her son ... wait a minute ..." xd It's so totally cool - the grave sight of my dad's family is right next to the grave sight of my step-dad's family. It freaked everyone at the funeral out - it doesn't seem possible at all but it's true!!

-_- sorry I haven't posted in the last couple days guys. My grand mother finally passed on Friday morning and I've been going here and there on account of the ceremonies. 8 hours in a funeral home can get to ya > <
Yeah, Funeral homes can just be awful. Especially when you find out your allergic to embalming fluid fumes... Ugh, not fun...
Yeah, that right there kinda beats the pants off my 4 hours in a stuffy lighting booth in terms of unfunness.
I'll shut up now... sweatdrop
>.< Yikes. Lighting booth? Meses wants to know ~ Cujo-chan's stories rock!
(( gonk *has been watching the Hungarian Rómeó és Júlia on youtube and would really like to think of something amusing at other peoples' expenses))
So I get there, and I was greeted by none other than Stephen (whom I adoringly call Sven, for no apparent reason), who tells me that he was incredibly happy to see me, because he had misread his schedule, and had gotten there 4 hours earlier. I asked him: "What ever did you do to amuse yourself for that long?! Was someone else there with you?"
He says: "No. But I had a rubix cube and Pokemon Leaf Green."
Ah, and so that little mystery was solved. Rubix cubes, man. You just can't get bored if you have one to try and solve.
So together we went up to the lighting booth, where the heat of the day had sunk in, and made the air almost suffocating, as well as a veritible breeding ground for whatever diseases lurk in The Carpet. Oh, I haven't told any one about The Carpet? Well, The Carpet is this gnarly old... thing that is laid out on the floor of the lighting booth in order to muffle sound. Long ago (about 42 years, to be precise) it was a pure white shag dream, but now it's old... and golden-yellow... and quite possibly rife with fungus and the Ebola virus.
So Sven and I sat up there. Alone. With nothing but eachother and a Rubix cube. For a half hour. During this time Sven (who in four hours had become a bit of a Rubix Cube expert) would chuckle to himself while watching me get wonderously frustrated at my own vain attempts to solve the Cube (there were some spectacular explicatives used, as well as a hammer... and the wall).
Suddenly, who should pop up but Miss Cass-ADD! Yes! Finally! We get our cues!
Er, wait, no. No we don't. She hasn't been able to get around to those yet, but hey, here's a photocopy of the script with some pages missing. Sorry to interupt!
Ok. Well, at least now we've made some progress.
Half an hour until the rehersal begins. Sven and I realize that it's 6:00, and we both haven't eaten anything since lunch (10:30 for him, 11-ish for me). Oh snap! Everyone else has already gone off to Taco Hut (it's a nearby Taco Bell and Pizza Hut... COMBINED!) for dinner, leaving Sven and I (the carless wonders) stranded. Time to take action.

First step: Where did everyone else get food. You look around at the people who've returned from The Hunt and see what fastfood places they went to. This is how you assess the edibility factor. In our case, everyone went to Wendy's or McDonald's. No Taco Hut tonite. Bummer.

So Sven and I are chowing down on pizza while watching the play, completely absorbed by this masterful rendition of My Fair Lady (ok, so we were making fun of the girl playing Eliza because she can't sing on key), and don't notice that The Hunger has begun to settle in on some of the other cast and crew members.
Picture, if you will, one of those slasher movie scenes where all the monsters/psychotic axe murders are lurking in the shadows, unbeknownst to their victims. Suddenly, silently, they make there moves. They attack, and the victim screams, but it's to late. They're dead.
That's what happened to me. One of the actors comes up behind me and grabs my shoulder and turns me around to face him. I screamed, thinking that one of the school's cockroaches went into one of the ancient A/C ducts and mutated into a massive creature hellbent on eating poor misguided youth. I didn't realize it was just some guy asking for a piece of pizza.
And then I looked around, and watched all the actors just sort of fade in from the shadows. Just like those slasher movies I was talking about. Creepy, no?

Well, after that the rest of the night went virtually incident free, save for my trip to the bathroom where I got suckered into fixing some poor actress's dress that she managed to rip. 20 minutes on a bathroom floor with a portable sewing machine while the song Disco Inferno blares on someone's stereo.

xd Pretty much - my day didn't go much better though. Ah, cousins - gotta love them ne? *laughs nervously*
My black clothes don't intimidate little children - they only urge them to attack, pin me to the wet grass and poor a whole bag of half mented ice ontop of me >.< Ooooh the coldness - I do nothing but humor them and they overpower me!
Yeah I had to miss school today for my funeral ((Crap, there's going to be sooo much work to make up!!)) eek But I've got something so outlandish and so unbelievable that you have to believe in my loyalty and word on this one.
Now the person who died was my step-dad's mother, and we went to burry her in a cemetary that stretches miles upon miles long. We get to the sight, and the priest says his prayers and all and we all place the roses on her coffin. After all is said and done the first other grave I look to was behind me. I looked at the name and it sayed "BOY--" and the flowers of the grave were covering the rest of it. I wondered if it was the same last name as me and walked over ((note that this is directy vertical to my grandmother's grave ... -_- and knowing what my first name is you can most likely guess my last name, you can't get any more Irish))
I look at the multiple names on the grave, that read James, Martin, Maragaret and I'm thinking, "Wow, my grandpa is named James, and my great grandma's name was Margaret ... and Martin was her son ... wait a minute ..." xd It's so totally cool - the grave sight of my dad's family is right next to the grave sight of my step-dad's family. It freaked everyone at the funeral out - it doesn't seem possible at all but it's true!!
That's pretty interesting whee ... I only missed half the day today because I needed to go for the first half of the day to take the objective test on The Hobbit and present a project of "Religion and Politics" xp ... There was nothing out of the ordinary with my Great Grandpa's funeral... But we had KFC afterwards rofl exclaim exclaim

-_- sorry I haven't posted in the last couple days guys. My grand mother finally passed on Friday morning and I've been going here and there on account of the ceremonies. 8 hours in a funeral home can get to ya > <
Yeah, Funeral homes can just be awful. Especially when you find out your allergic to embalming fluid fumes... Ugh, not fun...
Yeah, that right there kinda beats the pants off my 4 hours in a stuffy lighting booth in terms of unfunness.
I'll shut up now... sweatdrop
>.< Yikes. Lighting booth? Meses wants to know ~ Cujo-chan's stories rock!
(( gonk *has been watching the Hungarian Rómeó és Júlia on youtube and would really like to think of something amusing at other peoples' expenses))
So I get there, and I was greeted by none other than Stephen (whom I adoringly call Sven, for no apparent reason), who tells me that he was incredibly happy to see me, because he had misread his schedule, and had gotten there 4 hours earlier. I asked him: "What ever did you do to amuse yourself for that long?! Was someone else there with you?"
He says: "No. But I had a rubix cube and Pokemon Leaf Green."
Ah, and so that little mystery was solved. Rubix cubes, man. You just can't get bored if you have one to try and solve.
So together we went up to the lighting booth, where the heat of the day had sunk in, and made the air almost suffocating, as well as a veritible breeding ground for whatever diseases lurk in The Carpet. Oh, I haven't told any one about The Carpet? Well, The Carpet is this gnarly old... thing that is laid out on the floor of the lighting booth in order to muffle sound. Long ago (about 42 years, to be precise) it was a pure white shag dream, but now it's old... and golden-yellow... and quite possibly rife with fungus and the Ebola virus.
So Sven and I sat up there. Alone. With nothing but eachother and a Rubix cube. For a half hour. During this time Sven (who in four hours had become a bit of a Rubix Cube expert) would chuckle to himself while watching me get wonderously frustrated at my own vain attempts to solve the Cube (there were some spectacular explicatives used, as well as a hammer... and the wall).
Suddenly, who should pop up but Miss Cass-ADD! Yes! Finally! We get our cues!
Er, wait, no. No we don't. She hasn't been able to get around to those yet, but hey, here's a photocopy of the script with some pages missing. Sorry to interupt!
Ok. Well, at least now we've made some progress.
Half an hour until the rehersal begins. Sven and I realize that it's 6:00, and we both haven't eaten anything since lunch (10:30 for him, 11-ish for me). Oh snap! Everyone else has already gone off to Taco Hut (it's a nearby Taco Bell and Pizza Hut... COMBINED!) for dinner, leaving Sven and I (the carless wonders) stranded. Time to take action.
And I now introduce The Hungry Crew Members Dinner Program!
First step: Where did everyone else get food. You look around at the people who've returned from The Hunt and see what fastfood places they went to. This is how you assess the edibility factor. In our case, everyone went to Wendy's or McDonald's. No Taco Hut tonite. Bummer.
Second step: Beg. Usually effective if the begger is female and cute. I'm not cute, and Sven is a guy. It wouldn't work. But no big loss, neither of us care for McDonald's.
Third step: Examine your funds. Should you fail at mooching off others, then you must take drastic measures. In our case, call up Taco Hut and order a Chalupizza. Once our funds were pulled together, we found that we had $20. Ok, so no Chalupizzas. But we could get a large pepperoni pizza.
Fourth Step: Get permission. Yeah, um, Miss CassADD once fired a crew head for ordering a pizza without permission. But, that person was not Sven and there fore was not cool enough to pull it off. Miss CassADD said yes!
Fifth Step: Realize you don't know the number and then go find it. Ok, so we screwed up. We fail. We don't know the number for Taco Hut. However, we have TECHNOLOGY. Sven used a payphone to call his dad to get the number (neither of us had a cell phone tonite).
Sixth Step: Its Fast or It's free. Call up Taco Hut. Yes, Large Pepperoni. $15. Ok. Yeah. *insert school address*. What's that? Oh. That's *insert school name*. Ok. You know where that is. Ok. Yeah. Fine. Hmm? Of course we'll wait outside. 30 minutes.
So with our pizza ordered, we waited outside. We talked a bit. Mostly about anime and Pokemon, and how I want one of those box-y looking Scions so I can put paper-mache toast on the roof and paint "Toastermobile" on the side. Finally the pizza arrived, and we went with the fruits of our Hunt to the lighting booth. (unfortunately it was fast, so it was not free).
Up in the lighting booth, we thought we had it made, unaware of what was to come.
So practice starts, and Sven and I realize that out of 5 members, we're the only 2 who bothered showing up. That means that we got to be over worked. Yay.
However, with no cues, all we really had to do was turn the lights up and down at scene changes. Not to bad.
So Sven and I are chowing down on pizza while watching the play, completely absorbed by this masterful rendition of My Fair Lady (ok, so we were making fun of the girl playing Eliza because she can't sing on key), and don't notice that The Hunger has begun to settle in on some of the other cast and crew members.
Picture, if you will, one of those slasher movie scenes where all the monsters/psychotic axe murders are lurking in the shadows, unbeknownst to their victims. Suddenly, silently, they make there moves. They attack, and the victim screams, but it's to late. They're dead.
That's what happened to me. One of the actors comes up behind me and grabs my shoulder and turns me around to face him. I screamed, thinking that one of the school's cockroaches went into one of the ancient A/C ducts and mutated into a massive creature hellbent on eating poor misguided youth. I didn't realize it was just some guy asking for a piece of pizza.
And then I looked around, and watched all the actors just sort of fade in from the shadows. Just like those slasher movies I was talking about. Creepy, no?
So we just let them have it. That pizza was gone in a matter of seconds. They came. And they fed. That's what The Hunger does.
stare Vultures...
Well, after that the rest of the night went virtually incident free, save for my trip to the bathroom where I got suckered into fixing some poor actress's dress that she managed to rip. 20 minutes on a bathroom floor with a portable sewing machine while the song Disco Inferno blares on someone's stereo. Truely, I have been to hell.
Oh, and Miss CassADD got so pissed with the actors screwing up a scene that she let us out a good 10 minutes early.
But she's not as scary as my eighth grade play director who got so pissed off she threw a chair at someone. Now that was a Director!
So that's how my night was!
(Ho snap. I wrote another book, didn't I?)
xd Pretty much - my day didn't go much better though. Ah, cousins - gotta love them ne? *laughs nervously*

Unfortunately I missed Harv's funeral. But I always thought that the date it was held on did him no justice. Yes, the man who spent his entire life complaining about students having too many days off given to them had his funeral on a school day. And school was cancelled.
Stupid funeral planners. stare

I don't know xp ... Maybe his comp messed up or something...
Nothing really interesting here sweatdrop ... Lets just discuss InuYasha related things 4laugh exclaim
Lets see... What is your favorite Inu movie and why? I like them all but I think my favorite would be the 3rd movie b/c it shows InuYasha's and Sesshie's father whee . I also really like the 4th movie too 3nodding exclaim
BTW, AWESOME NEW SIG SANGO-CHAN mrgreen exclaim
EDIT: STILL NO CHAPTER 503 stressed exclaim Wait a minute... I think there was actually going to be 2 chapters this week eek exclaim Yeah... the last page of 502 says this week is a double-issue and next week there will be no chapter...
Lol arigato Junkie-kun but it's just a doodle (not to mention I forgot the ears ... though how intimidating would I look with them anyways?)
My favs are in this order
1. Castle Beyond the Looking Glass Inu 2
2. Affections Touching Across Time Inu 1
3. Swords of an Honorable Ruler Inu 3
4. Fire on the Mystic Island Inu 4
My reasoning you can all guess: They're rated by MirSan interaction. Inu 2 had the most physical action like hugging and the attempt to kiss, while Inu 1 had bigger parts for the two of them. And Honorable Rulers is at #3 because of the whole "Why would I bare with this curse if I cannot use it to protect the woman I love?" thing that boosted it up imencely ... stare and four just had a grope and a jealous arua glare ...
