So I suppose that I don't really update in this journal anymore.
If you didn't already know my other journal, then look for a new friend on your list. I'll just add everyone to it because I'm lazy.

the election = :(
there really isn't all that much else to say.
Despite the fact that I
1)disagree with 90% of bush's policies
2)think that he's an idiot
3)believe that he is ruining our country
i suppose the only thing to do now is accept the outcome of the democratic system that we hold so dearly and stop complaining.

I'm very tired of Kerry and Bush bickering constantly like pregnant transvestites on the Jerry Springer show. Nader, anyone?
In other news: I am getting sick. If I end up going to school tomorrow, it would be prudent to stay away from me.
If I have to drag my sorry carcass to that hellhole, I'm sure going to take down as many of you fuckers with me as I can.
This "early class" proposition is going to be the death of me, I swear it.
edit:
(And to think that I used to have time to write amusing or meaningful journal entries.)

Couple Fined $94,000 for One-Child Rule Lapse
Mon Sep 20, 9:03 AM ET
BEIJING (Reuters) - A court in China's southern boomtown of Shenzhen has fined a couple 780,000 yuan ($94,250) and sealed off their house for having more than one child, the Beijing Morning Post said Monday.
The pair were among nine couples who were fined "social fostering fees" for their extra children, the newspaper said. They had their first boy in 1997 and last year had twin boys, the newspaper said.
With approximately 1.3 billion people, China is the world's most populous nation. It has stringent rules on family planning that allow couples usually to have just one child, at least in cities, and limit numbers elsewhere.
The couple's house had been sealed up "according to the law," the paper said, or until they pay the fine which was unusually large. A house is sealed with a white paper bearing the stamp of a local court pasted across the front door.
Punishment for having more than one child can include having the power to the offending couple's house or to the houses of relatives being cut off.

All right, so I got cast as Catherine. I've never read for her, and wasn't even called back for the part.
However, it's kind of pointless to attempt to justify Pape's irrational decisions, so I'll just give up while I'm ahead, shall I? (Actually, that's not entirely fair - I think that for the most part, the cast is an excellent one.)
So you won't be seeing me as a satanic nun...but you may possibly be privy to my performance as a sassy barwench - or something. I don't even know the background information of the character that I've been fucking cast for.
Or even if I'm going to keep it.
I've always tried to live up to the things that I start, and at this point, I suppose it would seem terribly flaky to back out. I'll make some sort of decision on Friday once I actually see the script.
On a sidenote, I have a smorgasbord (sketchiest spelling I've ever seen) of new earcandy:
- Simon & Garfunkle - The Essential Simon & Garfunkle
- Lou Reed - The Raven
- Nick Drake - Made to Love Magic
- Beach Boys - Endless Harmony
- Love Actually - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

2) will - casey
3) marian - becca
4) ellen - kim
5) the queen - tonia (of course)
6) sheriff - greg
7) the king - chase
hopefully i'll be cast as the prioress, because honestly, who wouldn't want to be cast as the malicious bipolar nun from hell?

x. I need to stop falling in love with everything that i see.
x. It's like I'm supposed to have this reflex, like when you yank your hand away from a hot stove. Only I've got no feeling left there, just calluses. The alternate versions are always better. This applies to music and life.
x. The house is full of people, and all these faces that know me but I don't recognize them. Here I am, always missing a step. Out of sync, out of focus, out of time.
x. Nothing I did today really counted for anything. Today's game counts as a forfeit.
x. The thunder outside reminds me of the storms that we used to have back home. In the Midwest, every spring is tornado season. The skies get stormy grey that change over to sickly pale green and yellow & you can tell just by looking at the sky that something big could be about to happen. I had an insecurity complex when I was little. I always thought that I would get lost in grocery stores, that my mother would leave me. I must have been the only kid in the world that didn't actually wind up clutching the skirts of some identical stranger, but I was more terrified than all of them combined. I guess you could say that my complex is still alive and well, only manifested in different forms. Funny how that works out. So every spring there would be these big storms, huge torrents of chemicals and molecules and hydrogen bonds pooling in streets and mixing with the oil to make oilslick rainbows. I never used to splash in them because I thought they were the prettiest. Now I don't because it's polluted.
Some of the time, the electricity would go out, and we would all grope around with flashlights in certain parts of the house, but not my mum because she could still see a little from the light coming in the kitchen window. She would be fixing dinner and I would ask, "Are we going to die?" and she would say "No". And I always wondered how she could be so sure.
Me and my sister would pack up all of our things (being 4 and 6 respectively, it made sense to only pack the essentials, like stuffed animals and Legos for survival in the basement) and bring it all down. Of course, we didn't die. And now I guess I'm grown up, because I sort of feel invincible. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?
x. There will be a party tomorrow.
x. My margins are empty.
