John Lennon
October 9, 1940- December 8, 1980

I know it might be stupid, since I never met him, but I miss him. I wish he was still here with his family, where he belongs.

Happy Thanksgiving, Everybody!!

I feel like I'm gonna be sick. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. My dad drinks a lot. That doesn't bother me. He doesn't get drunk often, and when he does, he can take care of himself. Of course, that's when he's only drinking beer. If he drinks anything stronger, he gets mean. I asked him earlier, begged him, not to drink that vodka. So did my mom. We can't stand being around him when he's drunk like that. He promised us he wouldn't. Of course, he and his friend drank the whole bottle. His friend sent him home because my dad was threatening to kill his pregnant daughter. He's in the kitchen right now, kicking the table, cutting himself with a steak knife, knocking everything over, repeating himself over an over, making everybody cry. And he's laughing. He thinks it's hilarious, like it's all a big game. No matter how much we plead, he just keeps it up. I don't know what to do. I wish he'd just go to sleep already.

Oh, Torchwood. Why are you so awful and yet so awesome at the same time? I was telling my sister a story earlier, and the conversation went something like this.

( Behind the cut, because it got a bit long. )

Her reactions amused me to no end. The show can sound even weirder than it actually is, if it's not explained right.

I just got back from Rifftrax Live.

I was so awesome, and it was worth every penny I spent, but I'm so tired. I'll write more about it tomorrow.

I must find a way to attend this. It'll actually be showing near me, but I need to find a way to get to either Morgantown or Kentucky. My sister lives near Morgantown, so I'll see if she's willing to give me a ride.

Ticket info is here.

This is kinda creepy.

I just got high-speed internet yesterday, and I'm so excited! I don't know what to do with myself. I'm amazed every time I open a website and it loads immediately. I'm so excited right now!

My sister Sarah was just singing the theme song to Mystery Science Theater, which contains the line, "But his bosses didn't like him, so they shot him into space." She messed up the line though, and somehow she sang, "But his bosses didn't like him, so they shot him in the face." Now I'm going to have trouble singing the right line.

Two days ago it was eighty degrees. Today it was snowing. I'm so confused.

jacksrumbottle tagged me in her response to this meme, so I'm answering the questions here.

Firstly: People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question that they dislike with a new, original question.

Secondly: Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.

I don't actually have eight friends, so I can only put three.
I tag: drkdrgns, pony_cartercash, and xx_mayo_xx

Sorry if there are any spelling or grammar mistakes. I'm really tired.

I was on The Last Shadow Puppets' MySpace page today. I started reading the comments people had left them, and I came across one that made me wonder if the person knew anything about The Last Shadow Puppets at all. It said, and I quote:

thx for adding me;]
you sound a bit like arctic monkeys to me - i love them
so,i love your music either^^

*headdesk* Gee, I wonder why that could be? Do you think maybe it's because ALEX TURNER IS IN BOTH BANDS? I think that the same person writing songs for both bands might explain it.

To randomly change the topic, this reminds me of the time a record company tried to sue John Fogerty for plagiarism. They said that a solo song that he'd written sounded too much like a song by Creedence Clearwater Revival. The two songs did sound a bit alike. The only problem with the record company's argument was that John Fogerty had written the song by CCR, a band he was a member of. That's right, folks. John Fogerty got sued for plagiarising HIMSELF. Needless to say, the record company lost.

I haven't been on the internet much lately. I don't know why. I haven't had much time, and I feel like I've been really busy. The thing is, I haven't really been doing much of anything important at all. I think I've probably been distracted by my PS2. Playing Grand Theft Auto can take up a lot of time. I start playing a game, and don't realise how long I've been at it. Sometimes I feel like I've been playing for half an hour, and it turns out to be something like four or five hours. That probably accounts for my feelings of lost time. I haven't played for a few days, though. Hopefully in the future, I'll be able to keep track of my time better.

I came into my room just now, sat at my computer, and got stung by a wasp that was in my chair. I'm probably one of the few people unlucky enough to have a wasp in their room in January.

My birthday was okay. I got money earlier this month to buy a Playstation 2, so the only present I actually got on my birthday was from Jennifer, my older sister. She bought me "Unrepeatable," a DVD of Eddie Izzard's stand-up. It was just my family at the party, but we had cake and ice cream, so it was okay. It was nice to see Jennifer, because I hadn't seen her since Christmas. All in all, it was a fairly decent day.

I just spent the better part of eight hours reading this. The story was intriguing, but the lengths to which some people will go to get attention are absolutely ridiculous.It's kinda creepy, to think that someone planned that all out.

In other news, it's my birthday today. I'm officially nineteen now.

Guess what I got for Christmas!




It's pretty blurry, but hopefully you can tell that I GOT A FREAKIN' LIGHTSABER FOR CHRISTMAS!

Sorry about that. I'm so excited that I got a lightsaber that talking about it sends me into capslock mode. It's a Force FX lightsaber, so it makes all the noises from the movies, and it's modeled after the one Anakin used in Episode III. I love it so much that for the first two days I barely put it down. I'm like a little kid with a favorite stuffed animal.

I am a hopelessly incurable dork, and I'm proud of it.

They're making a biopic about Iggy Pop called The Passenger. Now, I love Iggy Pop, and I'd watch a movie about him no matter who was in it, but I have to call their casting into question. This is Iggy Pop:



He's known for being absolutely INSANE on stage. He rarely stands still, he's always jumping around the stage or out into the audience. He frequently flashed people during his performances. He got peanut butter from someone in the audience once and proceeded to smear it all over his chest. At one show, he fell off stage onto a table, which had a bottle on it. The bottle broke underneath him and ripped up his chest. He didn't even notice. He got back onstage and continued to perform with blood pouring off of him. In the end, he had to be dragged offstage, and Alice Cooper had to convince him to go to the hospital. ALICE COOPER. So who did they pick to play this insane, hyperactive, shirtless wonder?




That's right. Elijah Wood. My reaction to this was something along the lines of, "What the HELL?" Don't get me wrong, I love Elijah Wood. I think he's a great actor. However, Frodo =/= Godfather of Punk. DOES NOT COMPUTE.

A movie is also being made about John Lennon with the stupidest title ever. They're calling it "Nowhere Boy," and they want Kate Winslet to play his mother, Julia. Also in production is a movie about Keith Moon starring Mike Meyers. It's a sad time for music fans.

(I'll probably end up watching all of these anyway. I'll watch almost anything about my bands.)

I'm so happy right now. They just declared Barack Obama projected winner of the election. I can't believe we won! I had tears in my eyes, and Sarah was outright crying. Even as I was typing this just now, John McCain gave his concession speech. Obama is now the president elect. I can't even put into words what I'm feeling right now. This is the first election I was able to vote in, and the first one I really cared about. I'm just ecstatic. I really believe that things will get better now in this country. Now we just have to wait until January.

Happy Birthday to John lennon, Sean Lennon, and John Entwistle!

It's kinda depressing that Sean is the only one that's still alive.

I forgot that yesterday was the day he died because I was, ironically enough, watching my new Monty Python DVDs all day.
