i didnt answer and i just asked what exactly that entailed of and he said 'what? oh. so is that no?' and the whole time he was like. pasting things from the onion in between. and dammit. and then he was just like 'well bye' and he left he fucking left and he hates me and what the fuck about nick and i'm immensely distraught.
ok that place decidedly RULES for eternity. wahaha. so today. uhhh. rehearsal went ok. we ran the whole of act 1! i actually SAW ALL THE SCENES. and i think everyone was actually PRESENT. it was amazing stuff, that. the bag dance. went.... ok? it went as it usually does even though i still dislike it. yes well. anyway after rehearsal i had like two seconds to eat dinner before mr. wilson came and picked me up to babysit his children - holly, rebekah, and david. it went well only that i was there for FOREVER and nearly fell asleep on their couch like a million hours after i'd put them all to bed. but i got paid $40 and that is quite cool. and i had a good time, aside from nearly falling to sleep to death. of course they were late. they said i would be home by 12:30 and they came home at like 1. but it's ok i'm not complaining. i'm disappointed that i didnt get to see laylee and brittany this weekend. but laylee was of course busy the whole time, but i didnt get to talk at her at all anyway. and brittany i didnt get to talk at either as her fucking phone is dead. last night i online-talked at katie (as below post would indicate) and nick for forever and that was lovely. the alphabetical cd thing is not going so well. as you can see by the above quote thingie i'm still on tori amos. only one more of her cds, though, after this one!!

this week is fucking fast! or is it just me? i have decided to listen to all my cds. well. aahhaah yes it's a good idea. and i didnt mean that i havent listened to all of them. but. RElisten to them in alphabetical order because you know how it is. you start listening to the same few cds over and over and completely forget that you own them. such as this one (american hi-fi) which you didnt even remember owning in the first place. (because it was $10 at wherehouse and brittany told you to buy it when she was getting dishwalla).
so i'll probably try to blog about some of the things that i'm listening to. you know. the closet ones. and i will tell you how wonderful they are and you can say "crunk" and go download them at audio galaxy or whatever you happen to use.
:::quotes of the day:::
samwise is crunk
mordor is the ghetto
*directed at an orc* what a bitch
legolas aint no poltergiest

JiveBassist: hey hey, looks like mickey's ass is mine
alkghahah and they were all true. well. except the saruman one AHHAAH but it was something along those lines.

Galadriel If I were a character in The Lord of the Rings, I would be Galadriel, Elf, Queen of Lothlorien, wife of Celeborn and grandmother of Arwen. In the movie, I am played by Cate Blanchett. Who would you be? |
hi all. i have had a little thing called "A Weekend" in which several things happened. amazing, eh?
saturday::: i woke up at like. i dont know. 10:30 or there abouts. and uhm. well. oh yeah i had a donut. then i washed some dishes and whatnot. and mom was playing really loud music -- laura nyro, leonard cohen, bruce springstein... i think that was about it. and one of dad's crazy mixes was in there but you know. so then dad drove morgan and i to rehearsal where we thereby finally finished the dance to beethoven's fifth. and i dont think we did anything else.... no. so then we came home and i nearly went insane because brittany and i were supposed to be making plans with katie and i couldnt get in touch with either of them for a while. but then i finally did. and after much 'planning' my family went and picked up brittany and we all went to borders and met katie. brittany and i gave her christmas presents and it was gorgeous. then we read such classics as everyone poops and once upon a potty and pass the gas which are all filed under 'nature.' and i had a quasi nosebleed and for once i bought absolutely nothing. dad got the moby cd and the moulin rouge dvd and mom got a winnie the pooh planner thing and a book about how to build robots out of legos. gahah we have no legos. and then we left (and poor katie was there for like another hour all alone!!) with brittany and we went to backyard burger and they were out of seasoned fries and it was sad. someone said backyard burger started in memphis. is that true? it's a very small chain, as it is. anyway. then we came home and ate and watched moulin rouge. and brittany said (in response to my question did she like it?) "i loved it. but it was so sad!!" and she thereby rolled over in bed. and said 'oooookkkk' and rolled over again and again and the bed went thuthunk and was a sex scene and there was much hot lesbian action. so then uhm. yeah after that brittany was like 'IM SOOOO TIRED' and we therby went to bed and took the quotes and whatnot. it was. good fun. ahaha.
sunday::: i wake up first, as usual, at like. 8am somethin. and i lie there and listen to tori amos and then i decide i have to go to the bathroom and check the clock and so i get up and trip over this glass of water (thankfully empty) and i scream and brittany rolls over and looks at me funny and i hop away to the bathroom. and no, the glass did not break. thank god. anyway so eventually everyone got up and i took a shower and during that period in time morgan managed to break my glasses. x_x so i was blind for a while until mom taped them togther ahahah until dad went to walgreens and got a little healie kit thing. even though now the screw is sticking up funny. and uhm. then we watched rock n roll high school even though brittany sucks because she refused to get up and dance. and then dad mentioned something about 'when are we gonna take brittany home' and she was GOING to have to come to rehearsal and read and watch us and laugh and doodles but instead she wanted to go home and thereby miss the horror of our dancing. so dad and brittany and i stopped by at cd warehouse only to discover that they were having a SALE for the month type thing. in which. if you bought two used cds for $8.99 you got one for $5.99. we took advantage of this. and there was a dvd sale of some kind, kind of like that only everything was a bit more expensive, but the point is. dad bought three dvds which were. the matrix, excalibor, and almost famous. and he got two cds. probably todddddd rungren and sting, but i cant remember. so i was just gonna get the murmurs but then i decided that i wanted hole so i picked up that too. and brittany decided she wanted the luscious jackson cd with 'deep shag' on it and she decided i had to pick out one more thing to take advantage of the sale thing and plus she owed me $6. so we ran ALL OVER and we had to be reeaallly fast because if we didnt leave soon it was going to make morgan and i late for rehearsal. so i grabbed cake for some reason, and it wasnt the album with the single (short skirt long jacket) OR the song that john kept singing (sheep go to heaven) so. x_x well we listened to some of it in the car and they covered 'i will survive' and it was hilarious. and then um. i didnt get to have lunch. just a couple crackers, really. but we rushed and we werent even late for rehearsal, really! then we danced beethoven's fifth a couple times and we had to teach sylvia, claire, and brad the parts we learned yesterday. today, though, katherine was still missing and sonja had to go to work. sad day. at least we had more people than yesterday and no one had to leave early. yes it went quite well. and then everyone had a break and she called back the fire tones (remember - morgan, mack, and sylvia) who worked on their dance to the moby song. i think linley was supposed to be there today, too, but she wasn't. so during that time zoe and i looked at magazines such as the new yorker, memphis, and redbook. whagha oh my horoscopes are funny creatures. anyway kimberly was sorta drilling them and we were like x_x ahhhhh because she seemed remotely stressed. and there song was really fast and ahhh oh my. and then at one point zoe and i were standing at the door and watching htem and they were doing this thing that looks like the push up position, in a little row, right after a roll. but when morgan rolled she did it funny or something because when she did the push up thing and she like diagonal and nearly running into sylvia and i started cracking up and then kimberly made us leave. hahhahah. and after they were done she called for "Dan and the Water Tones" and we thereby decided that we are a band. and for those of you lovely readers who do not remember who the water tones are, that is katherine, zoe, tracy, and moi. right so. when i came in bill was trying to find the track on the cd that we were going to be dancing to and reading the board for the name of the song hence he thereby said "ghost....." all absently and i thought he maybe meant from the movie. (oh i was one of the first people in from break, as well) and bill pushed play and i stood there and there was a woman singing and i was like "this is really familiar...." and said so, for once. and then i KNEW who it was!!
me: who is this
bill: kristin... kristin.... uh
me: hersh?!
bill: yeah
me: *nearly fallie leanie over thing* i LOVE kristin hersh!!
bill: tell kimberly that. *i think he wanted me to go far far away*
me: *floats away all happy to have MY GROUPS special dance be to KRISTIN HERSH!!!!!!!*
kimberly: *walks in*
bill: alanna likes kristin hersh.
me: *terribly happy* ;_;
[btw its a GORGEOUS GORGEOUS song called "your ghost" from the first album "hips and makers" and i intend to upload the mp3]
i am now going to discuss the dance itself. it's right after andy (our favorite synesthete) has painted a portrait of angela, thinking she was romantically interested in him, but she gives the painting to her boyfriend. and andy (thats not really his name, its just hte actor's name. i cant remember a thing.) is really. depressed. and if you didnt remember, the dancing bits of the play are what is going on in andy's MIND. so dan is playing andy as he wants to be in his mind. so, of course, as we are the sad colors, it is a saaaad dance. so through like the first half of it dan is sort of. curled. in the sort of corner. like on the floor in a little ball, poor thing. so then we come out and do this thing and then about halfway through the dance we have worked our way over towards him and we help him up (the colors do, that is.) and then we are sort of background, really now, because dan is what you are supposed to be watching. and the song says "i think last night you were driving circles around me" and we sort of encircle him and it's. just. gorgeous. only that i wish i could actually WATCH instead of BE. ok so the question is -- are we actually supposed to be helping dan/andy out and saying "it's gonna be ok" and doing the comfort thing? or are we like "we feel your pain. here we are. we are your pain. we exist here in your little head with you. let's dance." because i know that at some point after this we (all the colors) have to clean up the mess that the Terrors have made. and thats like healing. so i am not sure. the healing thing is supposd to happen while andy is at the therapist. oh well.
anyway so we worked on it QUITE a bit -- kimberly finished choreographing the whoooooole thing today. it is only 3:16 or something but still. i think its going to go quite well except me. poor katherine missed a good bit. but in this dance and in beethoven's fifth i'm sort of her partner, in a lot of times, so we're doing the same thing and that makes it good because she sees me more than anyone else in the cast and i can help her out! ^^ yay for that. next rehearsal is. wednesday, i hope katherine can make it!!!!
and uhm. then kimberly made us perform it for my dad... x_x oh but i'm veeerrryy proud of morgan, she recognized kristin hersh. ^^ i have raised a good chalt. so after rehearsal we came home and sat around for a few mintues and then we went to see the royal tenenbaums which i thorougly enjoyed. a lot. ahhhaha. and then we came back here and uhm. i'm talking to nick and listening to kristin hersh. it's a good thing.
saturday::: i woke up at like. i dont know. 10:30 or there abouts. and uhm. well. oh yeah i had a donut. then i washed some dishes and whatnot. and mom was playing really loud music -- laura nyro, leonard cohen, bruce springstein... i think that was about it. and one of dad's crazy mixes was in there but you know. so then dad drove morgan and i to rehearsal where we thereby finally finished the dance to beethoven's fifth. and i dont think we did anything else.... no. so then we came home and i nearly went insane because brittany and i were supposed to be making plans with katie and i couldnt get in touch with either of them for a while. but then i finally did. and after much 'planning' my family went and picked up brittany and we all went to borders and met katie. brittany and i gave her christmas presents and it was gorgeous. then we read such classics as everyone poops and once upon a potty and pass the gas which are all filed under 'nature.' and i had a quasi nosebleed and for once i bought absolutely nothing. dad got the moby cd and the moulin rouge dvd and mom got a winnie the pooh planner thing and a book about how to build robots out of legos. gahah we have no legos. and then we left (and poor katie was there for like another hour all alone!!) with brittany and we went to backyard burger and they were out of seasoned fries and it was sad. someone said backyard burger started in memphis. is that true? it's a very small chain, as it is. anyway. then we came home and ate and watched moulin rouge. and brittany said (in response to my question did she like it?)

sunday::: i wake up first, as usual, at like. 8am somethin. and i lie there and listen to tori amos and then i decide i have to go to the bathroom and check the clock and so i get up and trip over this glass of water (thankfully empty) and i scream and brittany rolls over and looks at me funny and i hop away to the bathroom. and no, the glass did not break. thank god. anyway so eventually everyone got up and i took a shower and during that period in time morgan managed to break my glasses. x_x so i was blind for a while until mom taped them togther ahahah until dad went to walgreens and got a little healie kit thing. even though now the screw is sticking up funny. and uhm. then we watched rock n roll high school even though brittany sucks because she refused to get up and dance. and then dad mentioned something about 'when are we gonna take brittany home' and she was GOING to have to come to rehearsal and read and watch us and laugh and doodles but instead she wanted to go home and thereby miss the horror of our dancing. so dad and brittany and i stopped by at cd warehouse only to discover that they were having a SALE for the month type thing. in which. if you bought two used cds for $8.99 you got one for $5.99. we took advantage of this. and there was a dvd sale of some kind, kind of like that only everything was a bit more expensive, but the point is. dad bought three dvds which were. the matrix, excalibor, and almost famous. and he got two cds. probably todddddd rungren and sting, but i cant remember. so i was just gonna get the murmurs but then i decided that i wanted hole so i picked up that too. and brittany decided she wanted the luscious jackson cd with 'deep shag' on it and she decided i had to pick out one more thing to take advantage of the sale thing and plus she owed me $6. so we ran ALL OVER and we had to be reeaallly fast because if we didnt leave soon it was going to make morgan and i late for rehearsal. so i grabbed cake for some reason, and it wasnt the album with the single (short skirt long jacket) OR the song that john kept singing (sheep go to heaven) so. x_x well we listened to some of it in the car and they covered 'i will survive' and it was hilarious. and then um. i didnt get to have lunch. just a couple crackers, really. but we rushed and we werent even late for rehearsal, really! then we danced beethoven's fifth a couple times and we had to teach sylvia, claire, and brad the parts we learned yesterday. today, though, katherine was still missing and sonja had to go to work. sad day. at least we had more people than yesterday and no one had to leave early. yes it went quite well. and then everyone had a break and she called back the fire tones (remember - morgan, mack, and sylvia) who worked on their dance to the moby song. i think linley was supposed to be there today, too, but she wasn't. so during that time zoe and i looked at magazines such as the new yorker, memphis, and redbook. whagha oh my horoscopes are funny creatures. anyway kimberly was sorta drilling them and we were like x_x ahhhhh because she seemed remotely stressed. and there song was really fast and ahhh oh my. and then at one point zoe and i were standing at the door and watching htem and they were doing this thing that looks like the push up position, in a little row, right after a roll. but when morgan rolled she did it funny or something because when she did the push up thing and she like diagonal and nearly running into sylvia and i started cracking up and then kimberly made us leave. hahhahah. and after they were done she called for "Dan and the Water Tones" and we thereby decided that we are a band. and for those of you lovely readers who do not remember who the water tones are, that is katherine, zoe, tracy, and moi. right so. when i came in bill was trying to find the track on the cd that we were going to be dancing to and reading the board for the name of the song hence he thereby said "ghost....." all absently and i thought he maybe meant from the movie. (oh i was one of the first people in from break, as well) and bill pushed play and i stood there and there was a woman singing and i was like "this is really familiar...." and said so, for once. and then i KNEW who it was!!
me: who is this
bill: kristin... kristin.... uh
me: hersh?!
bill: yeah
me: *nearly fallie leanie over thing* i LOVE kristin hersh!!
bill: tell kimberly that. *i think he wanted me to go far far away*
me: *floats away all happy to have MY GROUPS special dance be to KRISTIN HERSH!!!!!!!*
kimberly: *walks in*
bill: alanna likes kristin hersh.
me: *terribly happy* ;_;
[btw its a GORGEOUS GORGEOUS song called "your ghost" from the first album "hips and makers" and i intend to upload the mp3]
i am now going to discuss the dance itself. it's right after andy (our favorite synesthete) has painted a portrait of angela, thinking she was romantically interested in him, but she gives the painting to her boyfriend. and andy (thats not really his name, its just hte actor's name. i cant remember a thing.) is really. depressed. and if you didnt remember, the dancing bits of the play are what is going on in andy's MIND. so dan is playing andy as he wants to be in his mind. so, of course, as we are the sad colors, it is a saaaad dance. so through like the first half of it dan is sort of. curled. in the sort of corner. like on the floor in a little ball, poor thing. so then we come out and do this thing and then about halfway through the dance we have worked our way over towards him and we help him up (the colors do, that is.) and then we are sort of background, really now, because dan is what you are supposed to be watching. and the song says "i think last night you were driving circles around me" and we sort of encircle him and it's. just. gorgeous. only that i wish i could actually WATCH instead of BE. ok so the question is -- are we actually supposed to be helping dan/andy out and saying "it's gonna be ok" and doing the comfort thing? or are we like "we feel your pain. here we are. we are your pain. we exist here in your little head with you. let's dance." because i know that at some point after this we (all the colors) have to clean up the mess that the Terrors have made. and thats like healing. so i am not sure. the healing thing is supposd to happen while andy is at the therapist. oh well.
anyway so we worked on it QUITE a bit -- kimberly finished choreographing the whoooooole thing today. it is only 3:16 or something but still. i think its going to go quite well except me. poor katherine missed a good bit. but in this dance and in beethoven's fifth i'm sort of her partner, in a lot of times, so we're doing the same thing and that makes it good because she sees me more than anyone else in the cast and i can help her out! ^^ yay for that. next rehearsal is. wednesday, i hope katherine can make it!!!!
and uhm. then kimberly made us perform it for my dad... x_x oh but i'm veeerrryy proud of morgan, she recognized kristin hersh. ^^ i have raised a good chalt. so after rehearsal we came home and sat around for a few mintues and then we went to see the royal tenenbaums which i thorougly enjoyed. a lot. ahhhaha. and then we came back here and uhm. i'm talking to nick and listening to kristin hersh. it's a good thing.

holy shit i have a huge craving for circus peanuts.
morgan and i watched rock 'n' roll high school which is hereby dubbed the best movie ever created. we also taped it so brittany and laylee and katie, you guys HAVE TO COME OVER TOMORROW AND WATCH IT WITH ME AGAIN AND DANCE ROUND THE DEN, OK!??! yes. good.
morgan and i also picked our five favorite lines in the movie and they are as follows.
5. "i thought she was splitting protons in the basement!"
4. "he's tall and handsome and he looks like a poem" (thats about joey ramone right after morgan had been commenting on his ugliness)
3. "those ramones are ugly, ugly people."
2. "i'm allergic to violence; i break out in blood"
1. "DO YOUR PARENTS KNOW YOU'RE RAMONES?!"
I WANNA BE YOUR JOEY RAMONE!!!

I am a Thrust-ship.
I am small and tricky - where you think I am, I probably am not. I can work very fast, but I tend to go about things in a round about way, which often leaves me effectively standing still. I hate rocks. Bloody rocks. What Video Game Character Are You?
