I'm so sleepy, almost been up for forty hours o.O its weird that my mind feels okay but when I try to talk to someone I'm not coherent. Oh well, I'll hit the hay soon after some more work.

It's so hot and muggy over here. Why isn't fall here already?

My dental implant healing has puffed up my face, but it isn't tender anymore.
I can eat almost normally now. Hooray for steak! (slurp!)

Funny story.
I work as a lifeguard at a waterpark. At the wavepool, I tell kids that are under 48 inches tall that they need to wear a lifejacket, and they are provided by the park. So, along comes a...little person. My friend and I, both at the wavepool, couldn't decide whether or not to stand him up next to the height stick and see if he needed to wear a lifejacket. Sooo, I called over my supervisor, figuring she'd tell me what to do. She didn't know what to do, so she radio'd to HER supervisor. My manager, Mindy, heard the call over her radio, and hopped into her Mindy-mobile with two other head honchos of the park searching for the midget. Why, you ask? Sweet ol' Mindy wanted to ask the man to be in the FREAK SIDESHOW for the park's month-long Halloween event.
How fucking rude is that?

I bought the first two books of The Legend of Drizzt at Value Village for three dollars each (woot!). Its a bit of an adventure for me because the cover paper thingy that goes on hardbacks is missing, so I dunno anything about the story, but I looked up reviews and all of them were good, and I haven't read a fantasy novel in ages, a GOOD fantasy book in forever, so hopefully this goes well.
Most fantasies I read were really old ones my dad read as a kid, he kept them all, and I found them all kinda pervy. Other than that the only other fantasies I can think of that I like are children's books (Myst is the only exception I can think of).

If you need a GOOD fantasy book or series, I don't think you can go wrong with Terry Brooks;
Shannara Series (First King, Sword, Elfstones and Wishsong)
The Scions of Shannara Series (I forget what the book were called in this one)
Voyage of the Jerle Shannara Trilogy ( I know the second one is called Antrax and think the first is titled the Voyage of the Jerle Shannara)
High Druid of Shannara Trilogy (Jarka Ruus, Tanequil and the third title escapes me)
Armageddon's Children Trilogy (Armageddon's Children, Elves of Eintra and the final book is still being written I believe)
Running with the Demon Trilogy (Running with the Demon, Knight of the Word and Angel Fire East)
I've read all of those (well, except Elves of Eintra, the unwritten book and book 2 and 3 of the running with the demon trilogy, I own them, I just haven't read them yet...) and can guarantee some good fun reading in them, and I COULD dig through my piles of books to find them and the titles but i'm lazy though I may read them all again, they're decently sized, each one at about... 500-600 pages I think.
He also wrote a series called; Magic Kingdom for Sale-SOLD!, which is apparently quite good but I never got around to buying or reading them.

haha, I changed my mind. I'm just going as a PVC whore. Doesn't matter, I just want to experience what it's like. I don't imagine I'll talk to anyone, or that anyone will talk to me.

I was randomly looking around a joke encyclopedia, which makes fun of all subjects included, and so I wondered what it had to say about goth.... After reading the section and laughing ect. There was a section of pictures at the bottom of different types of 'goth'...
One of the pictures happens to be of GothicusMaximus, denotated as "CapeBoy".

Hehe, I actually read The Sword of Shannara, and Elf Stones of Shannara when I was 13 or 14, and I had a copy of The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara, I started it but just couldn't get into it. Sword of Shannara was pretty good and actually I wouldn't mind reading that again, I don't remember it too well, but I remember not enjoying Elfstones at all.

I found I appreciated all of them a lot more when I was older, and its interesting that you day you didn't enjoy the Elfstones since that is one of my favourites.

It's funny, although from 3:35 onwards I just want to give him the biggest hug ever and sympathise!
It's horribly catchy. I must remember not to sing it in public!
