Well, since is all hollows eve and all that. The last day of October. I thought I'd post something here for the edification of all who still bother to read this blog.
Underused word of the day: befuddle Neologism of the day: befilldededededdded.
Ah
well for my august, August post, I would like to recap or perhaps just
cap, that my sister has gone away to college, and that I am still here
at home. I would also like to say that this August I intend to turn
over a new loaf, and treat this season of spring with the respect it
deserves, and grow like the trees do in this season of winter, in love
and contemptment with all human kind. I would also like to now publicly
thank those who have had the greatest influence on my life: my cat,
Emily who has always been there to attack my untied shoes. My left ear,
who has heard all the things I have every wanted to hear regardless of
what posinous lies my right ear claimed to have heard, and above all my
computer, a Frankenstein and a saint, who has never failed to teach me
a little humility by virtue of seeming when I seem to get too long
winded and verbose and yea, even prolix shu
ting down before I can save things, and making me reflect on what I have said, testing my keen memory skills. To these I give my heartfelt thanks.
In other news I would have to say the month of Thursday, has been quite exciting to me. I have done numerous wonderful things, like things that are great and really super wonderful that will stay in my mind forever such as er things that are just... wow indescribable really, you just wouldn't beleive it.
In other other news, the card you are thinking of is a eight of dimonds.
In other other other news, if the card you were thinking of was not a eight of dimonds, it is the card you are thinking of now
and trying not to think of now.
In other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other news, if you have read this far, you are probably my best friend in the whole wide world and I love and chersish you. Unless of course you are my mother, and then you are not my best friend in the whole wide world but my mother. But then I love and cherish you anyways. Hi Mom.
Underused word of the day: loins (well, it is!) Neologism of the day: herkalupalopis (my first bid at one upping "Supercalafragilisticexpealidocious" I know, I am not there yet...)
Well, kids that time of the month again: blog time!
All, I can say, is that my life is on the up and up, mostly in the "its the little things in life that count" way. Thus, while it is true that I have yet to hear back form the Peace Corps, no girlfriend, or the money to spend on one (unless she is a really really romantic "All we need is love" sort of girl in the literal sense), and still live with my folks; I do have good friends, a decent job (on the personal level), and my instruments (including as of tonight my Accordion.)
I have also found a possible solution for my bubble pipe problem. I bought some spray on paint sealer, for painting projects (like my new devil sticks I made, another plus) and thought to myself "Hey why don't I coat the inside of the pipe with the sealer so the wood doesn't soak in the bubble mix?" So I did that this evening, and tomorrow we'll see if it helped.
In other news, I have discovered Amazon.com, which is a bad thing for a unrepentant bibliophile, I have already bought three books, and have several more on a wish list. One of them is the best book on Clowning out there, "Creative Clowning." The other two are a Sci-fi book, and a book on mentalist, that is, "mental magic." I spent some time on the magic book tonight, and have found a couple that I quite desire to learn.
Lets see what else? I have a new drum, a "Remo" doumbek. I have been mucking about with the open G tuning on the guitar with interesting results. I have also watched a bunch of Buster Keaton on You Tube, along with other clowning clips, which is inspiring to me. I need to learn to fall.
Thus I will leave you with this month with this: Its not Buster Keaton but it is freaking hilarious. It is what clown magic is all about.
Underused word of the day: Why. Neologism of the day: Grustectiacian.
WELLLLLLL... folks I am done with the dentist! I had my teeth cleaned today, and they said I am good to go! So I resurrected my Peace Corps paperwork from the grave of a file it was in and I am going to get it signed off and sent tomorrow! VICTORY IS MINE! Take that dream crushers and skeptics! Begone fowl nay-sayers, and avaricious homebodies! PEACE CORPS HERE I COME! [does happy dance around the room]
In other news, we no longer have Jackson our Labrador Retriever. He was caught killing two pet rabbits and so the pound took him. We like to think that he was labish enough to be picked up by some caring family at the pound who could take better care of him, but chances are: probably not.
In other other news I have thought up some viable and origional clown gags and bits that I plan to implement when I have the funding. Prepare to Laugh your ass offlaugh hardchucklegigglegrinsmirk look around sheepishly and see what everyone else is doing.
In other news beyond the other and other other news, I am teaching myself the musical saw. I intend to play it with Neil on his Turtle song before I go. Hopefully, I can play by then.
A observation: Steven King's illustrator is more morbid and dark then he is.
