Ugh...

This flu or cold or whatever it is is going around faster than a Tumblr post...

Little baby Luna

Little baby Luna would not go to sleep last night. She wanted mommy and the Doctor doesn't mean crap when that happens.
I literally tried everything, I picked her up, sang to her, gave her another bottle, you name it. I was just going to leave her in her room (it seemed to work the first time she freaked out), but little Luna wasn't going to have that. I had totally forgotten that she knows how to open her door now and by the time I raced upstairs she was already in the master bathroom.
So I had to do it. I didn't want to, but I was left with no other choice. I took her downstairs and turned on the Imagination Movers.
Good Lord that girl calmed down. We were into the third episode when mommy and daddy walked in...

I don't think I'm gonna babysit again any time soon.

Sometimes....

Sometimes I wonder if my friends are worth keeping around.
Do they help me or hurt me?

The saddest thing...

The irony of love is not loving the right person at the wrong time, it's YOU. (points to girl) You're the irony of love. Loving YOU at the wrong time, loving you and letting the real "right one" pass me by. You're the reason I cried, drank, and lashed out at everyone.
I gave you everything I could, all my time and money and patience. And for what? So you could lie to me, treat me like a paper towel that you use to wipe the blood from your nose.
I thought you were the most important thing in the Universe, but it turns out that you were just another bad thing ruining my life.

I'm glad I'm done with you....

Weening the hallow.

I want to get a group together and go as Buckaroo Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers next Halloween. Who's in?

Stupid dogs and other things...

Finally got the dogs back a few days ago. Someone had turned them in to the neighborhood security (who are such incredible pricks btw) and they promptly called me (four hours later). These dogs are more trouble than they're worth. With things going the way they are, there's no way that "Martha" (the friend I'm house-sitting for) can handle two dogs, a two year old child, and another baby on the way.
Anyway, just as we were leaving with the dogs, the property manager (who is more of a prick than the security) decides that this is the perfect time to bring up the face that Martha's yard is a total mess, something that was brought to my attention at the beginning of my house-sitting gig.
I can't stand these stupid monkeys sometimes.



On the other had, I did get to see a few good movies this week.

Tokyo Drifter, a film from the 60's about a former Yakuza trying to go straight. The film maker's use of colors in this movie is brilliant.

Tetsuo: The Iron Man, a cult classic about a middle-aged salaryman who is slowly turning into a crazed robot. I really didn't like this film. You can probably find my review of it somewhere if you look hard enough.

Wild Zero, a film that I'm watching as I write this. It's not bad so far considering it was only shot for about $50,000 US. I'll probably put a review up for it somewhere later on.



Anyway, that's about it for now. No brooding memories of love lost, no philosophical questions about sex or life or anything like that. Although if you hang around, I promise to throw a few of those in from time to time.

House-sitting sucks!

So while everyone was sitting down to a nice dinner, Jupiter's dogs burrowed under the fence and took off into the cold rainy night.
We had the entire crew looking for them last night, but to no avail. Called the Humane Society, called Jupiter, went looking for them this morning, but nothing so far...
