Sure thing, hon

I swear I'm still alive. Look, I'm still breathing (*puffs on mirror... which does not fog up... uh-oh...). Anyway, point is, I'm still watching movies and reading comics and listening to music. Though I haven't done it properly for a while, thanks to my wonderfully malfunctioning hard drive. But no hard feelings toward the more-often-than-not faulty hard drive... mostly because I'm trying my best to pull all my life's worth of music and comics off it right this moment and I need to flatter it for it to behave. So together now on three... one... two... three... *YOU ARE THE BEST HARD DRIVE IN THE WORLD, YOU ROCK, MAN!*

Okay, aside from that, I'm sure no one is holding their breath over my triumphant return. That's because I usually return defeated. No, that's because very few read this thing so if you just did, you should feel elite. (Yes, I recently learned this thing called "flatter your readers as well as your hard drive.")

But honestly, it has become shocking how much of my life is documented by the forms of entertainment I enjoy. I remember important occasions by what movies I watched or what music I was listening to. Re-reading certain comics makes me feel young again. Virgin blood makes me immortal. No. Actually, non-virgin blood would do. No, just kidding. Jeez, I'm not even a Twi-hard.

The main reason I don't write down as many movies and comics as I watch and read is sometimes it's so hard to put a feeling into words. That fleeting feeling as the material connects with you on some neural level or another... I suppose that is why I need to try harder, but when you don't even like the subject matter that much (as in some of the movies I watch)... it gets more difficult.

Also, I just can't shake off the feeling that no one is reading this (Ha! I successfully put a feeling into words! Good-bye, uncommunicative, anti-social cavewoman. Hello, new, eloquent me!). If only I get some divine sign that someone is actually paying attention to this... like a comment after a post or something.... I would be much more motivated. If you like what I ramble about, show me some love. Everyone needs love... All we need is love, all we need is love *going off to sing "All We Need Is Love" from Moulin Rouge*
