11:37 pm - Do you want to hear how I got these scars?
|
I was a 9-5 type businessman, on the fast track to success. I was getting a bigger and better pay and space almost every month. Promotions, dinner, accolades, that kind of thing. Problem was, I couldn't sleep. So when I came to work, I kept my head down, my brows furrowed, and my mouth in a scowl, just trying to stay focused enough to not walk into things.
Everyone always said I was ungrateful. That there was no way I knew how well I was doing, or I'd be happy.
"Why so serious? You're doing great! Cheer up!"
Those were the nicer of the things I'd hear.
"Son of a bitch, must think the rest of us are worthless."
Still nicer, than the worst.
Day after day, week after week, the same thing. Like clockwork. Monotone drivel and whispers at the water cooler. Until I just couldn't take any more.
"Hey, man, smile! You just made that huge..." before the man could say 'deal,' I was on him. Shaking.
"YOU WANT A GRIN?! YOU WANT ME TO SMILE?!" And I took out my pocket knife. Poor coward pissed himself. Thought I was gonna cut him.
Instead, I turned it on myself, bleeding on his crisp white shirt.
And here I am.
That deal got canceled. So did my permit to carry concealed.
Oh well. Who needs a permit, anyway?

4:48 am - Evan & Jaron - Crazy For This Girl
|
She rolls the window down
And she
Talks over the sound
Of the cars that pass us by
And I don't know why
But she's changed my mind
Would you look at her
She looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl
She was the one to hold me
The night
The sky fell down
And what was I thinking when
The world didn't end
Why didn't I know what I know now
Would you look at her
She looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl
Right now
Face to face
All my fears
Pushed aside
And right now
I'm ready to spend the rest of my life
With you
Would you look at her
She looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl
Would you look at her
She looks at me
She's got me thinking about her constantly
But she don't know how I feel
And as she carries on without a doubt
I wonder if she's figured out
I'm crazy for this girl

3:55 am - The Creature of Silver
|
I am a creature of pure silver.
I am soft as the moon's light for you, love
But sharp as the knife's edge for those against us.
The comfort of my sheltering wings
Will shatter for those who mean you harm
And splinter into a thousand blades to rend their flesh.
These eyes that peer beyond your skin
Into the soul of you, and see the love
Will glare past their facades and see only their sin.
These loving arms which hold you,
Melting into you as you in them,
Will tear at our enemies until their very last spasm.
These lips which breathe the sweetest truths
Against your cooling, pliant skin
Will speak of their evils and their doom, with forked tongue.
This tail which cradles you
Circling your body endlessly
Will snap the necks and shatter the bones of they who come in darkness.
For I am your creature of light, love,
And I am their creature of night.
That is the way of those who are silver, death and love entwined.
~Beloved

12:57 am - Fearless Leader
|
 Fearless Leader. That's what I always was, right? What they wanted me to be? What I wanted to be?
What better, really, what better than to devote my everything to a greater cause, to accept responsibility and prove my worth? I wanted it, I did, I asked for it in my own way. But it ate at me, gradually, so sick and slow I couldn't tell. Ate at me like the red that consumed my vision, the red that one day turned to a red that would be there even with the glasses off. When I'd had enough. When she'd had enough. My red, seeping out of me in a final outburst of chaos. Letting the control slip, letting my life slip.
But they wouldn't let me go.
And eventually, through some fate or circumstance, I met someone who expected nothing, didn't care if all I could do was sleep, attempt to eat, and sob all over her. She gave me a new strength, a new life. She kept dragging me out here until I could see the colours I'd lost so long ago.
I don't want control anymore. Not over myself, not over anyone. I want to live, but I want someone else to help be in charge of me. I don't want my old power, in any way to take that word.
I want a new life, a normal life.
With no more red.

I had my entry, had it down, had finally broken that facade that I've always kept and just sat and poured my heart out in text.
Forget it.
This was so well-worded the first time around. I know I won't be happy with whatever comes out now...
Forget it! Really. I'm far too aggravated now for it to come out in anything but particularly short, angry sentences.
And that's not how I want them all to find out what's really in my head right now.
I'll try again when I'm not so upset.

4:49 pm - Just your friendly neighborhood unicorn...
|
Hi...in case anyone was worried about me given the last two days, I'm alright. I'm a little shakey, but I'm sitting here feeling very proud of myself. Maybe the scary man is right, maybe I really can do more than I think I can. I've already surprised myself a bit with how much transfers over...I didn't know I could do Chakra work...yay me. *^_^*
I hope the Julz is alright. She should be, the Wolfie and I didn't see anything else to get rid of...
Call me if you need me, and you know who you are. I'm here to help.

But every time I check Videric's horoscope, I can't help but laugh.
"Take out your portable microscope and examine the little things that turn your life around in a positive manner. So many small and seemingly insignificant realities help to get you through every 24-hour time-period. When the Moon is in Virgo (5:01AM PDT), steer clear of critical judgments and magnifying the flaws in people dear to you. Become a master of efficiency and order. Bring your home out of the dark ages. Straighten your desk and organize office files and paperwork. Eliminate dust bunnies and toss out boxes of nonessentials. Visit a health-food store and stock up on natural goodies. Health, diet and nutrition are in the spotlight."
Is it just me?

9:43 pm - Drunken Sailor Dance Party FEVAH!
|
I wanted to post about this before I forgot. It's already been awhile, hope I haven't lost anything...
Jack was out, singing along drunkenly with the Pyrates Royale with Julz and Connor. I was inside, of course, having installed a lovely new stereo system like the one in my living room. I was sitting on top of the stack part, coffee tumbler in one hand, cinnamon roll in the other. Earthling was the one who had baked the rolls, apparently we have a kitchen. Who knew? So he was there in his usual attire, except he also had a pink apron on and matching oven mitts, carrying the tray.
During "Old Joe" we were laughing our asses off at Jeremy, and by the time we'd hit "Bell-Bottom'd Trousers" we had him in the old timey sailor gear.
I don't know who switched out at the time, think it was Adrien, but at one point Jack was jigging around with Earthling, since no one was dancing with him. It was kinda jigging...kinda square dancing...I dunno. They bowed to each other at the end. It was adorable.
Jackie stopped by at some point and danced with Earthling, thankfully, and a whole huge group of us were singing and dancing, I believe during "What Do You Do With a Drunken Sailor?" Safe guess, anyway.
Wanted to make sure I didn't forget this, it was really, really fun.

"You could receive some good news today that will lift your spirits, Aries. You could receive the creative inspiration of a lifetime. Or you could experience a breakthrough in your personal life, like an improvement in your current romance or the interest of a new, attractive person. Whatever it is that happens, enjoy the sense of reward and achievement that it brings. You deserve it!"

2:27 pm - Well then...

Seeing as I was mentioned in the last post here...perhaps I should introduce myself, just a little.
*clears throat*
I am a pirate, yes. But I prefer to keep clean. I try to look proper when I can, and I usually stay rather quiet. I admit, I am a bit squeamish...I like turtlenecks and clouds. I don't like to cause trouble but if need be I will step in and stop it. I was once a captain...but obviously, at the moment I have no ship.
...Yes, Jack, I'm in the market, as it were.

2:00 pm - Reference Post: On Music
|
Yep, it's your host, {or theirs, anyway...} eleganceflawed. Last night, lying awake, unable to sleep, I thought about things. The way I do. And I made a mental list of the various popular musics the Inhabitants seem to prefer. So I decided to make the list text, for some reason. And so, here it is.
Captain Jack Sparrow likes 70's, 80's and early 90's rock. Some punk. Tin Machine.
Antaram likes pop, showtunes, and "girl-power bands" as he calls them. {Garbage, No Doubt, etc...}
Dilemma goes for glam rock, new wave, and j-rock, but also greatly enjoys Madonna.
Earthling is obsessive over David Bowie, but also likes techno, 70's rock, New Wave, and 80's rock. He also likes world music, especially if it has a lot of drums.
Erik likes gothy music and classical, especially anything involving harpsichord. All the better if it's one of those groups that mixes some electronic elements in. Depeche Mode.
Fiasco, of course, is into glam rock, but also new wave and j-rock. He seems to have a spot for Placebo.
Nint likes anything you can dance to, so techno, pop, and yes, even disco, are things she enjoys. When in a more sinister mood she likes 70's rock, especially Bowie, and the not so happy "girl-power" type things. {Alanis Morrisette, Tori Amos...} She also likes things that are just really strange, like Renaldo and the Loaf and Momus. She has a special fondness for Fad Gadget as well.
Vichar goes for the really dramatic gothy music, the more sadistic the better. Diary of Dreams, Death in June.
Videric enjoys elegant gothic music, but also has a penchant for odd things. He'll listen to anything once, and if it strikes his fancy he'll keep it. VNV Nation.
The Thing seems to really prowl when it comes to Tones on Tail and certain eras of The Smashing Pumpkins. I guess that means it likes it.
So there you have it. I suppose, if you're looking for one or another of them to pop out at you, you know what to play now. *shrug*
PS: There's another pirate in here, but I don't know whether or when he's going to make an introduction, to me or otherwise...
