"where's my tall boy?" (at home)

it's after 3 am. I'm listening to the Chrono Trigger soundtrack, organizing my HD and drawing. If I don't accomplish something every day, it's like the day won't even matter. I wish sometimes I could make every day memorable but that's not how it works, I 'spose. One time I read about this woman who apparently can't forget anything even if she tried. she remembers every detail of her life since she was born or something crazy. scientists didn't even know what hit em. I love that crazy shit you hear from around the world that "baffles" scientists. FIGURE IT OUT DUDES, YOU WENT TO MEDICAL SCHOOL! like some article I read about how this one guy in this tiny town on this tiny asian island hadn't slept for 30 years, and he's not even tired! maybe they should check if he's super human?? hello!?

anyways, all those things could be lies, but as Ripley always dares me to believe it or not, I always believe it. I wonder if Ripley throws in a fake fact once in awhile to test us.

I've been starting to draw again, hopefully I'll keep it up. mostly I should be working on film related things. but all I seem to really do is day dream about japan and being rich. needs me a second job. I want to make a video like this one day. can't stop listening/watching it. I read that it was originally a song written for britney spears, but har mar ended up with it instead, and didn't change any lyrics. love it.

I can hear you upstairs, squeeky floorboards

GOJI on the GO! I think these tiny vials are meant for old people. I'm not sure though, but the cashier questioned me like I was crazy but offered no other information on the product or why she was suspicious of me buying these. I didn't even know what was inside! That is what most trips end like after leaving Uwajimaya. Not knowing whats inside.

Today I won the lottery. well, at least I know what it feels like to win the lottery, because I found a PARKING SPOT on CAPITOL HILL a half a block from my apartment at 1 AM!! you can't tell me that is not on same level of being high off winning a multi-million jackpot. well, the high lasts about a minute, and I imagine the Mega Million Jackpot high lasts till you spend all the money, which could take a while (depending on your style).

At my work we have a movie that gives you tips on how to win the lottery. with notepad and pen in hand, I was ready to learn the secrets of the winning pros. turns out the moral of the story is "you can't win if you don't play". I think it was commissioned by Lotto. I stopped taking notes 5 minutes in.

Devin found a shit load of Bossa Nova music for me. I'm feelin lucky.

of baths & strange happenings

I've been taking a lot of baths lately. our tub fills up really fast because it's sort of shallow. I make sure that the water is so hot, that my skin turns pink because it's burning. not so hot that it's painful, although I've had the thought that if some cannibals barged into the apartment they could make some great Hot Human Water* out of me.

there have been a few times when I'm in the tub, soaking in the warmth, I think about someone I used to know who took baths all the time. I thought it was weird. once he said something like when you pull the drain on your bath, a small percentage of yourself goes down too. I never really understood it unless he was being literal with dead skin flakes (gross). I feel more complete when I get out of a warm bath, so I'm not sure what he was talking about. He was always cynical and dark, anyway.

I've been having a lot of consistently weird "coincidences" happening lately, and I've been surveying friends and family on their opinions of ESP situations. maybe I just want to be more like Alex Mac. I'm nervous about the unknown, as most people are. however maybe it's my need to feel different and I'm grasping every little desperate occurrence and trying to force it to be something more mysterious. I was told some strange things that run through my mom's side of the family, and I'm determined to have some of it handed down to me.

also, NHU is not a thing. and not everything is a coincidence.

I was really into this chain email Devin's grandpa sent him with these facts:
Lincoln & JFK coincidences on wikipedia. I don't think it's a conspiracy, but I'd like to think someone is hinting at a crazy reincarnation situation.
