strange dreams that i ran into tommy at a walmart type store. and recovered a repressed memory that his dog once put his head in a big pile of rubber cement. and i was pissed that tommy let his dog’s head get all glued together. the dog kept trying to wipe it off and it was all stringy the way rubber cement gets. then an exploring dream that i took someone around buffalo and richardson was on an island in the river, also near by the terminal, with a tunnel that ran from the terminal to richardson, where there was a hot topic where a bunch of people were playing a video game i created. and then a work dream that i was pulled off the floor to get trained in surveillance, because there was finally an opening in that department and they thought i was a good candidate for it.

i really feel like going to the mall. which is a ridiculously bad idea. i know that as soon as i get there i’ll be completely pissed off at every person there, and i’ll spend about 15 min there before turning around and going home. and i’ll find nothing for anyone for christmas. so i’ll just stay here and watch the finale of america’s next top model, even tho i accidentally read a spoiler and already know who wins.

the trip to the place where i have a key, which is not the terminal, is happening on thurs at 2ish, meet at my house. i’m considering taking an artistic approach to lighting, since the first 2 floors are pretty dark (so those coming come equipped with warm clothes and flashlights please). dan, you use tealights? sorta nervous about having a key to this place. i don’t think it’s checked on much, for anyone to have stopped by and notice the lock situation, but still…for some reason i’d feel better just crawling through a window, but we tried that a few months ago hahaha. at least i feel good knowing that i had nothing to do with this lock/key thing.

i finished reading “rat scabies and the holy grail” – fabulous book. amusing and entertaining story about a regular guy and his punk drummer neighbor investigating the Rennes le Chateau mystery. totally fun quick read. at first i thought it was a made up novel but i’m now thinking it’s based on a true story. the people really exist so…not sure.

now i’m reading “electric kool-aid acid test”. so far it’s not bad, and it’s not frustrating to read like a few of the other i’ve started. but i think i may be too old for my mind to be blown by this hippie drug culture book.

was going to a nin show, apparently here in buffalo. i walked in and hardly anyone was there, but S was up at the rail so i went and joined her. V came back with food and we were just chillin. they had decided to come to the states for the one show here before europe haha. the opener came on and it was these 3 girls in 1980s spandex leotards who do covers of nin songs. we didn’t quite understand the point of having a nin cover band open up for nin. anyway. after the opener we left and went to my house – apparently because that’s the thing to do between the opener and the main act. we were talking and they mentioned they were renting a motor home to travel during the europe shows. and i thought that was the most brilliant idea ever.

the weather is total shit out. super windy, rain, lightning. as i was driving home from walmart i was thinking that all the trees that were damaged, but still standing, from the october snow storm would definitely be coming down tonight. then a few miles down the road a tree fell on my car. or part of a tree. i don’t really know cuz i was driving, and the next thing i know there’s a thud and debris on my car and i’m driving over tree pieces. wtf. i’m so calling in. not going out in this shit weather again.

this is not to sound egotistical at all…but i was telling someone about my parents, and my dad’s parents experience in germany, and i realized that to some people i have quite a fascinating history…

which brings me to this: Start off with 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about yourself. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 10 weird habits/things/little known facts as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you need to choose five people to be tagged and list their names. No tagbacks!
1. my dad was born in germany, and his father was drafted into the nazi army. meanwhile my pregnant grandma was fleeing from someone – the nazis or the russians i don’t know – with my toddler aunt. she had to leave my aunt at a relatives house when she went into the hospital with complications. months later she got out of the hospital with my newborn aunt and found that the town had been half taken over by russians. the russians wouldn’t let her into the other part of the city to get my aunt for months. finally they let her, she went to the relatives house, and they had given my aunt to an orphanage because they couldn’t afford her. so my grandma had to get her from the orphanage and my aunt didn’t even remember who she was.
2. i enjoy the smell of crayons
3. as a very young child i drew gigantic eyelashes on everyone i drew
4. my favourite songs as a child were falco’s “rock me amadeus” and phil collins “easy lover”
5. i am disturbed by the way food looks so i try not to look at it while i eat or i’ll barf. especially when its an animal product.
6. like adr2, Can’t keep nail polish on for more than a few hours before i start picking it off. it makes me feel claustrophobic
7. i have 2 stumpy toes on one foot because i broke them in college, and apparently, they healed wrong
8. i tried to make myself fall asleep last night by singing 99 bottles of beer on the wall in my head
9. i absolutely cannot stand whistling or people who whistle. it is possibly the most irritating thing ever, it pierces my brain until i can’t function.
10. my last cat, ziggy stardust, hated whistling too. if you started whistling he’d run up and try to attack your face.

NO TAGS!

had all my favourite asian players (who aren’t banned) tonight. let’s see…AA#1(asshole asian) asked me if i was related to alice cooper. and AA#2 followed up with saying shit about me in vietnamese, everyone laughing, and then referring to me as lucifer the rest of the night. doesn’t get much better.

oh and here’s a tip. if you want to use superglue to stop bleeding, it works. however in my case, covering my cuticles with superglue was brilliant until i began picking the superglue off. then it hurt. and it won’t come off my nails.

i had this total wack dream. i was driving around with someone in a car, filming trains, and we are off roading now, and we pass this industrial looking building, that we realize is something that loads the train cars up with whatever. lots of inclined conveyor belts and stuff that looks like the remains at beth steel. then as we pass by i realize that it was a church converted into something that loads train cars. so suddenly it was even more interesting so we turn around and get out of the car. there is an exhibit out front and it turns out it’s called 13 mile creek house, and i remember hearing about it being super toxic, and also haunted. it was the home of the lady on the water, which was some indian who walked on water, and died and now haunts the area. so we start looking around and it’s really pretty and i suddenly remember i have a camera. so i’m about to start taking pictures and something always ruins my shot…the cam not working, not focusing, and by the time i focus it something is in the way. so we go inside and it’s super weird, really pretty in an urbex way, but totally weird and evil. we have to walk on this suspended walkway, real indiana jones like, and it starts moving and falling apart, and we realize it’s the ghosts messing with us and trying to kill us. so we leave and we’re back outside. and now sean and all his crew show up and i’m trying to take pictures and they’re constantly in my way, or hitting me so my shot gets ruined, and i just keep getting more and more pissed until finally i yell WHAT THE FUCK I’M TRYING TO TAKE A FUCKING PICTURE STOP GETTING IN MY WAY!

the big news of the day is that adr made the sabres telecast! and she missed it! (and so did i but i have a better excuse haha). eric called and left me a message that adrienne was just mentioned during the intermission – because she made and sent a pillow to rick jenneret, since someone stole his last week. how cool!! i want to see pics!

and the other big news, the short version, is that our season ticket account got hacked and someone stole the tickets to wednesday’s game. because the fucking RETARDS who set up the myticketreplay system on sabres.com set everyone’s default passwords to their zip code. how many zip codes are in WNY? 15? trial and fucking error will get you into people’s accounts, if they never logged on to change the password (which we didn’t). spent an hour at the arena figuring out what was going on, and we’re basically at this point, getting nothing in return… no refund or anything. phill’s mom was livid and they went back down to the arena again, and were told that now they’re doing a police investigation because “it goes beyond just this”…though we looked at our account status there, and no other games were affected. i had asked if this had happened to anyone else, and at the time they said no, but maybe the discovered it had happened. or phill suspected it may have been an inside job – as in inside the sabres organization – and that they’re investigating that. either way, they know the name of the person who used the tickets, and i would imagine that the system has logs, and they should be able to trace IPs to who logged in and transferred the tickets etc. whatever. so aggravating.

2 weird dreams. one was about going to a nin show with adr and bliss. i had met them there, but they had been late and the show was supposedly already going on. we tried to find the spiral entrance and couldn’t, so we went in through a loading dock door and ended up right on the floor. and no one was inside yet, and no one cared that we were there. so we went up front, but it was this steep incline…i’m talking almost vertical. so we had to almost climb up this barrier and sit on the top of it to see anything. then people came and got in our way, and i dunno the rest.

then one about seeing u2 on tv or something, and bono had a huge tattoo on his back of like…an astrological chart, with zodiac signs and circles and stuff. and me thinking i needed to talk to kate and find out if this was new, or something i just never heard about before cuz i had never seen his back haha.
