"Keep your earplugs handy, the constant collective moan of the undead, a sound that will persist at all hours for as long as the siege continues, can be a deadly form of psychological warfare."
- The Zombie Survival Guide

my cat is a chip off the old block. check him out.

he can't get enough of those car chases. just like his old man.

watched "21 Grams" just now. all the heart talk makes me uneasy, considering the the fact that the images from the MRI showed that i don't have one.

hey Moscow! you get my package yet? hope you didn't already have that cd. if you do, maybe you can trade it for some cigarettes. wait, that's prison. you aren't in prison. are you? see you on leave bro.

i was talking to a friend who's baby had the hiccups today. watching the babies faces between spasms we wondered if maybe the baby was forming all sorts of complex thoughts and ideas and the hiccups were distracting her from realizing some deep truths (or at least what a baby might regard as a deep truth). it's like that story "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut where there's those bells and buzzers in your head to distract you if you're smarter than everyone else because they need everyone to be equal. and if you're stronger, you'll have to carry around these weights to slow you down. of course these things just make you stronger and that insures an uplifting surprise ending right? wrong. read it, it's only like three pages tops. it'll make you hate people, but in a good, creative way.

am i growing up or what? i eagerly purchased the new Korn, Cypress Hill and Slipknot albums and i can never remember to listen to them. it's depressing but maybe i just can't go back. what the fuck am i supposed to listen to then? blues? jazz? classical? it seems like just yesterday i was in a loud conversation defending my shitty taste in music with:

"they got THREE drummers duuuuuuuude!"

and this was interesting. i got an email from someone who wanted advice about actual spiderbites. sweet. i always wanted to be ahead of actual spiderbites links on search engines but to mistaken for one? hell yeah. that's some sort of accomplishment right? right? here it is:

"hello, a couple of weeks ago I believe I was bitten by a house spider. after the bite the skin area that was bitten turned into a bruised area and a punture wound later. I felt the area numb (?) and I would scratch but no sensation. later the area was not only numb but now I felt pain such as a burning and very sensitive to touch... I am curious to know if this was due to a spider bite. My daughter had one bite on her stomach, later bruised and pain occuring. Have you heard of this?"

my response:

Isabel,

"These injuries were not from a spider. your daughter bit you. maybe while you were sleeping. then she bit herself, i think. be nicer to her."
