Go here. You will not be sorry.
You may wet yourself.
But you will not be sorry.

Somehow, I always manage to forget I have an IMDB page.

So, sorry about that.
I NEED to make a movie, be in a musical, barbershop quartet, straight play, air guitar competition, a substantial will... something.
Got Monkey Island: Special Edition (now available on XboxLiveArcade). Nice. It's a little weird playing that game without a mouse. But it's definitely great. It's weird to see how the design aspects of games have changed since the early 90s, and I think an update of a classic like that really shows that evolution off nicely. It's hard for me to explain why without boring you to death and sounding like a nerdy jerk who expects you to know everything I know (and appreciate it, you nincompoop!), so I won't go into that.
Had a dream about Jason last night.
I was in this house, and I had a gun, and just found like, 3 full clips. So I run downstairs, and there's somebody I know there (it's a dream, so I don't know who it is, I just know they're part of the Mystery, Inc. Gang). I turn around, and hear Jason thudding his way down the stairs. I put a clip in the gun, and right as I raise it to firing level, Jason rounds the corner.
*click*
?!?!? I just loaded the gun!!!
Jason then, seeing a business opportunity, decides to bum-rush me. Now, this may seem strange, as Jason never moves past "lumbering speed", which is why I nearly dream-pooped myself. Then, he rams me through the back wall, and out onto a dark yard. He's then, mysteriously, gone.
I stand.
I find myself surrounded by tons of people that are clearly, not Jason Voorhees, but are, in fact, Dressed like Jason. And they all want to kill me. Like Jason.
I don't remember much, because I think at that point, my alarm went off.
And I thought it was odd that I have nightmares, not about Freddy Krueger, but Jason Voorhees.
So I'm guessing Freddy will come after me while I'm at camp sometime.

It's funny to think about the fact that you never own anything.
At the most, you can rent it for the duration of your life.
Boy. That makes me want to sell everything I have.
I saw on the news today that a race involving Model-T Fords and a trip from Maine to Washington had concluded today. So I started wondering what kinds of people would spend the money to get a Model-T... and how much time it would take to get that much money (because I assume Model-Ts aren't spendthrift commuter vehicles for the everyman). Then I thought, "Well, they must be retirees who have the time and money to spend on a cross-country trek involving cars older than they are." And I thought about being at that point in our life where you're sure that, best case scenario, there are fewer days ahead than there are behind. Phrases like that always make my mind collapse a little bit. It's like trying to comprehend eternity. Go ahead. Try to comprehend eternity. I'll wait.
Wife's cooking spaghetti. Smells good.
That eternity thing made you dizzy, didn't it? Or light-headed? At the very least, it had to make you want to not think about anything for a few minutes, right?
Sometimes I think about things that are too big for my brain. I don't think of myself as mentally deficient, but I am not smart enough to get, I mean really get these concepts. I think that's what is so scary about the concepts of HP Lovecraft. I've not personally read any Lovecraft tales, but from what I understand, the central themes are concerned with knowledge that is not intended for man, and how that knowledge can ultimately destroy him.
I could draw some parallels between those Lovecraftian ideas of knowledge destroying and some dude named Adam and his wife Eve. But I won't.
I know that I'm not going to be here forever. I know that. Intellectually, I have that concept down. I think the reality of that is really starting to sink in on me, though. It helps. Puts things in perspective.
Excuse me. My spaghetti is calling.
