                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, actually life is not particularly wonderful from an objective point of view; subjectively, I'm content a lot.  This is why my writing has slacked -- it is primarily an endeavor to divert my attention from brooding and such, I guess.  At least, that's what I've been learning lately.<br />
<br />
Just wait for it, I guess.<br />
<br />
Then again.  I've been thinking lately.  Thinking often ends poorly.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow, my little equinox celebration was amazing.  No details as I assume there will be some present in my writing, which also probably will be taking a short break from Dischorderly Madness maybe.  Of which a couple more are written but will remain unposted until a little more of it is done.  The pieces just aren't made to stand alone.<br />
<br />
I'm also ready to announce that I am, and have been, writing a book.<br />
I'm not sure how I want to go about posting it or whatever, maybe chapter by chapter, but, uhh, I want it to all happen with a certain rapidity, so .. we shall see.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

Skittles are dangerous. They could kill our president.  Do no let them travel on airplanes or own firearms.  Screen them for drugs regularly.  Eat them at your own risk!<br />
</randomness><br />
<br />
This is the first in what might become my NEW FANCIER OnLINE journals (of doom)!  This does not make them any more clever, witty, or guarded, oh no! It makes them more public!  See me overuse exclamatories! See me plot to take over the world in my underwaer!  Eww.  Stop seeing that, really.<br />
<br />
The point here is thus!  To take the journals I would normally write and horde and keep to myself, and share it with you, the unwashed and unabashed unaudience!  This is exciting!  Which explains the exclaiming, but does not exclaim the explaining!<br />
</introduction><br />
<br />
You decide.<br />
My hair is pretty sexy.  It's all cut and stuff. Pictures forthcoming.<br />
<br />
</actual entry><br />
<br />
I'm going to try to include bits from my poetry scrapbook sort of thing here, too  Explaining the following:<br />
</poetry introduction><br />
<br />
---------<br />
I thought we were falling in love,<br />
but it was just the drugs.<br />
We thought we were falling in love,<br />
turns out it was just the drugs.<br />
<br />
I could see the light in her eyes<br />
reflecting at me, pools of moonlight<br />
The end was half-written there<br />
in the dark vacancy of her stare!<br />
Insanity was never all. that. hard, to find.<br />
She painted a picture of me naked,<br />
smoking, so jaded, with horns of Satan!<br />
Is that what I must seem to her to be?<br />
Just a drunk and depressed discarded condom?<br />
<br />
Insanity was never all. that. hard! to find.<br />
<br />
We thought we were falling in love<br />
but it was just<br />
the drugs.<br />
I thought we were in love<br />
turns out it was just<br />
the drugs.<br />
<br />
<br />
Explosion.<br />
<br />
(yes, Felix, that was just a loose joke about you ending a poem with the word 'chaos&#039<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />
<br />
This is what happens if you mix reggae and industrial, other than getting weed laced with cocaine and gunpowder.<br />
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;<br />
</poetry><br />
<br />
Poetry over.<br />
Decease!<br />
I mean, desist!<br />
decapitate!<br />
capitulate!<br />
quarter!<br />
parsnips, no, wait, parley!<br />
</schizophrenic session><br />
<br />
And on that note farewell.  Keep in mind the recent tragedies, most notably the loss of a few of Leon's precious brain cells, most of his hair, part of his ego, all of his journal privacy.<br />
Pray for peace or piece of mind.  Change a diaper of someone you don't even know.  Eat a good sandwich.  Call someone you miss.  Hug the next person you damn well want to hug.  In short, be a warm and fuzzy fucking individual.  Then screw up.<br />
</inspirational session><br />
 If you really read all of this and didn't just read the first line, middle paragraph, and last line?  I like you.<br />
The others:  Watch A Scanner Darkly as penance. Then A Beautiful Mind.  Then download the Scanner_darkly book.  You can get it on a .torrent from someplace like mininova.org along with like 40 other books by whomever so kindly wrote them, all in one nice .zip file.  If you still have not come to the same conclusion as I, also download Neuromancer by someone like William Gibson.  If that has not done it, you're either pointless or useless, unless you are dumb, in which case you're actually just pointless and also useless because you won't realize they're the same thing and will find it twice as insulting.<br />
</useless (pointless)  task><br />
<br />
I hope you enjoyed all this shiz.<br />
May sweet Morpheus eat you with his pointy teeth,<br />
like the wolf<br />
and not the grandmother.<br />
</farewell piece><br />
Staxu (10:02:11 PM): So, like, if you play on godlike and get to the last guy<br />
Staxu (10:02:40 PM): it's beyond godlike, it's more like the whole universe including god is pitted against you and focused into one single flak cannon shot. Every time it hits you in the back. :/<br />
cieuxdemort (10:03:07 PM): Lame.<br />
cieuxdemort (10:03:12 PM): I'm leaving though. See you.<br />
Staxu (10:03:04 PM): peace.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Felix, Felix, Felix, always touching me inappropriately. With your tagging.   Err.  Nvrmnd.<br />
<br />
So.<br />
__________________<br />
HERE ARE THE RULES:<br />
<br />
The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 weird habits/things about yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a journal about their 6 weird habits/things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their devpage comments and tell them to read yours....<br />
__________________<br />
<br />
Six strange things about myself?  Hah.  Luckily, I'm pretty dern odd.<br />
<br />
One.<br />
I like to sing, and can do so tolerably.  But, only when listening to what I'm singing.  This annoys me to no end, as it is potentially the only thing that brings me as much joy as completing a well-written poem.<br />
<br />
Two.<br />
I'm a very humorous and humor-driven sort of person.  It may or may not be apparant in my poetry/DA interactions, but if you met me in person it would be very hard to take me seriously most of the time.  If you did so anyway, you wouldn't like me very much.<br />
<br />
Three.<br />
I preen.  A lot.  When I am not looking as nice as I would like, I don't generally enjoy my day, and the inverse is true as well.<br />
<br />
Four.<br />
I hate 90% of all things and would be crazy were it not for the consolation of friends, humor, and poetry.  I pretty much live for those three things alone.  With love included in there, somewhere, and friendship being a form of love.<br />
<br />
Five.<br />
I am not a static individual.  If you met me a year ago and saw me again now, you may as well be meeting a new person, and so on and so forth for as long as I've lived.  I consider it improvement, but I could be lying to myself.<br />
<br />
Six.<br />
I have no real guiding purpose in life, and am content to merely exist.  I think people think about things far too damn much, and am of course being a hypocrite in thinking so, as I'm an intellectual by nature if not choice.<br />
<br />
Since I'm both lazy and a nice person, I refuse to tag anyone else.  Also, I don't like these things in general, but .. if it comes from Felix, I can't ignore it. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ This might seem a little not-nice, but I'm clearing out my watch list to include only a reasonable number of people.  Frankly, those who keep up with my work deserve some attention in return, but there are way too many people on my watch list, and I end up ignoring every single one.  Thus, if you read this and want to be watched by me in the future, -please- note me and tell me not to remove you.  Make the notes creative, if you'd like, I don't really get many and I'll know the purpose.<br />
<br />
-Not- noting me doesn't necessarily mean you'll be removed, but noting me does necessarily mean you won't be.  Some people whom I really look up to/appreciate as artists will stay based entirely on me wanting to drool over their work, and also a few people who have been helpful/supportive to me in the past but are likely in the same situation as I, with watching too many to keep up with.<br />
<br />
Thanks, people who care. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ One. Hunder. Ed.  That's a number, and it's the number of deviations I have -posted- to DA.  Some of those aren't poems.  Buuut, I have some poetry I don't post for one reason or another.   Thus, it's freaking awesome omg mega-kickass that I now most definitely have written more than a hundred poems.  I am so cool.  <br />
<br />
Now we just have to do something about this low pageview number, and the unimpressive ratio of deviations to favorites. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hiya all,<br />
<br />
     I've decided I suck at the poetry thing, and now I'm going to write a book.  To those that are interested, I'm still debating the exact content of the book.  However, I think I've decided on poetic prose as the medium.  Anyone with advice on this style is quite welcome to give it, and those people who are curious enough to actually want to read the book as I write it/ help me out with a few things as I go should send me a note (or comment on this entry) telling me so, and then I'll talk to you about it and all that.  C'mon, guys, I need help~! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yay!  The much awaited first band  practice has now come and gone.  This  is going to be so cool, all these  people rock.  I really couldn't have  asked for anything more.  We practiced  for a few hours (well, I listened)  and  they were extremely good considering it  was the first time they've played  together.  Afterwards, we all went to  Wal-Mart (there's nothing to do here)  and ran around messing with stuff and  generally having fun with the fact that  we are now officially a band.  It was  especially fun to start saying random  crap about being in a band anytime a  female walked by, haha.  We sat around  in the snack bar for a while and  eventually voted on a name.  We pretty  much all agreed on Our Septemer Guest  ... so, now we have a band, weee.  Oh,  and I almost forgot, we finally left  after they kicked us out.  Yes, any  first band practice day that ends in  getting kicked out of Wal-Mart is a  good sign.   It's in the official band  rulebook, honest.    ... I think that's  all, yeah.   Oh, the first song we're  going to play is Cute Without the E by  Taking Back Sunday ... yeah, pretty  cool song.  After we do a few cover  songs we'll manage original music,  until then I have no real purpose.   Then again, I am the official Prophet.     Peace out. ]]></description>

Looks like I've been  drafted into a local emo band that's  starting up ... those silly emo kids,  sprouting up like weeds.   My official  role in the band, since I lack all  forms of musical talent, will be  Prophet.   This means .. well, not  much, heh.  However, it does mean I'll  be writing more songs, when I'm not  busy .. you know .. looking pretty and  being mysterious.   Soooo ...   expect  some emo style songs out of me in the  coming days, but never fear for my  gothness.   Every emo band should have  a kickass gothic prophet. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Anyone who enjoys my poetry should also  visit these poets.  They can all be  found in my little "watched by" box,  and accessed from there.  And probably  in my favourites as well.<br />
<br />
LordOfSenses<br />
NoWhereToHideX<br />
DevilnSatin<br />
<br />
These are, so far, my most consistently  favorite poets here on DA.   Enjoy. ]]></description>
