    I only played Smash once. Didn't really get into it. But then again I'd rather watch other people play games than play them myself.

    First step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

    I had war flashbacks to MSN convos with various KHVidians over the years at the thought.

    I'm watching a playthrough of Until Dawn and I don't need this tension. I don't even like these stupid horror games. I just want to know who's behind it.

    someone help


    I made it through No One Lives. I can handle this.

    6 is pretty much the only one I've seen since I like Luke Evans as an actor. It's rumored he's coming back from the 8th one depending on his schedule. But I think he'll do it since he likes acting and hasn't been typecast as anything yet. Even if most of my friends and family know him as Dracula and or Bard.

    Though he does villains well. I have to admit that.

    I know he makes a cameo appearance in 7 but I'm not sure if I'm emotionally prepared for that.

    First, I'd suggest going with something that's easily washed out. Kind of ease the parental into it. And just do a streak or something. Nothing overly drastic.

    Personally, I've never dyed my hair. I don't want to kill it since I'm indecisive.

    I like how there's a disclaimer at the end of Fast & Furious 6 telling us that the car action sequences are dangerous. I could have told them that one but I suppose some people are lacking in common sense.

    And I was not ready to see Luke Evans falling out the plane. I know Owen Shaw lives but... I was not ready.

    It's so dark in my room. The only lights now are my lava lamps and my fishtank. I took down my decorations today. A bit depressing really.

    I have a small vacation at the end of March to look forward to.

    I started reading High-Rise and holy sheet it's a trip and a half. And I've only read 3 chapters!

    Spoilers ahead! And possibly some disturbing stuff.

    • The first sentence is Laing eating a dog. And then he starts re-living how things got to that point.
    • Richard Wilder lives on the 2nd floor with his wife, Helen, and their two children.
    • Laing lives on the 25th floor.
    • Anthony Royal, the designer, lives on the 40th floor. The roof is immediately above him. He’s described as a ‘fallen angel’ ‘looking over and down on us’.
    • Royal and Laing play squash together once a week but Royal declined their most recent game. ‘Perhaps as an experiment.’
    • Laing heads up to the roof where a fancy dress party is taking place. They murmur disapprovingly about his sneakers and squash clothes. They crowd around him but Laing’s rescued by one of his neighbors.
    • There are two pools in the building. One in the upper floor and one on the 10th floor.
    • The 10th floor is supposed to be “neutral” territory. This is where the supermarket is located. Along with a bank, a hair salon, and a junior school for the 50 or so children that occupy the building.
    • There’s constant partying with booze.
    • Things are thrown off the balconies. At first Laing assumes it was an accident when the champagne bottle lands on his balcony. But later things are deliberatly thrown off to cause damage to the cars of the denizens of the upper floors.
    • What floor you live on determines where you park. If you live on a higher floor, you get to park closer.
    • There are set times for the children to use the 10th floor swimming pool but “the adults show up anyway”.
    • The 50 or so children belong to those on the lower floors. Whereas there’s an usual number of dogs owned by those on the upper floors. The people on the higher floors dislike the presence of children and the ones on the lower floors dislike the presence of dogs.
    • The incident with the dog in the pool happens in a passing mention by Laing. Along with the coincidence that Wilder was in the pool. It also happens during a black out the affects the 9th, 10th, and 11th floor.
    • The dog owners use the common elevators to walk their dogs. So there’s complaints of dog urine and feces in them.
    • People on the middle floors leave their doors wide open despite the tension and unrest. Laing questions another person about this and she says: ‘Why that’s half the fun!’
    • Growing content and satisfied with the goings on in the high-rise seems to be a red flag. Laing notices this on several occasions.
    • The buildings are also described as sentient on numerous occasions and as having legs and growing. The thrumming of the elevators is compared to a heartbeat and the residents to red blood cells.
    • The people watch their televisions with the sound turned down.
    • The first human death occurs at the end of chapter 3 and is the neighbor that rescued Laing at the rooftop party.
    • Wilder is described as ‘restless’. Yet Laing generally seems to like him and his wife.
    • Laing came to the high-rise upon advice of his sister after a divorce from his wife of 1 year. A place where he could be alone and yet meet people. It’s also within convenient driving distance to his place of occupation.

    And I've only read through Chapter 3.

    More like what a depressing week. We lost Bowie on Monday(technically Sunday night and Alan Rickman today(technically last night).

    They happen in threes. So who's the next one?

    My eyes have been twitching all day. I must look like I'm about to murder someone.

    EDIT:

    I've been kind of thinking of posting little snippets of work from my original story. Not part of the story itself but like little insights into the world and the more major players. And it might give me some motivation to actually work on the story proper. Was just kind of wondering if there'd be interest. It involves those pictures of dragons that wind up in my signature from time to time.

    I know Nova'd read them.

    For once I have nothing to say about something. Aside from welcome back?

    Big Thunder. ...Like a Native American version of Thor, God of Thunder.

    I relate too much to my sign. Pretty much a hothead who makes rash decisions. Though the leadership and love of attention usually falls flat. Since I hate leading people and i hate attention.

    RIP David Bowie.



    I think it's supposed to be a tabby tail. Or at least that's how I look at it.
