"Twenty Years Has Gone So Fast..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

Two things!

One: Sunset Boulevard is the most frightening film I have ever seen. Daddy and I decided to go for Damn Yankees over Cuckoo's Nest, because we are both traumatised. Eeeeeesh.

Two: I forgot to mention! ^_^ Christine named my eating disorder Ed. She keeps gesturing and saying things like, "But you can't listen to Ed! Ed lies all the time! He lies to everybody. You need to learn to listen to yourself, because you know more than Ed," and it makes me giggle every single time. It's perfectly logical, but I still find it hilarious, because I fail.

I think I shall go to bed early to-night. I am most dreffle tired, and I have to get up early to-morrow, too, as am working again, and, in the afternoon, helping Daddy to plant the field, since he did indeed get it tilled. We are so good together.

*hugs*

*envies Soujin the planting of that field*

*smiles and snuggles against*

It will be a good strong field. It has potatoes and strawberries and tomatoes already, and to-morrow it will have corn.

Ed does lie. ^^ I don't think I like Ed very much.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I'm not at all fond of him. But he does make me laugh when Christine is pretending to slap him in the face. Even though I shouldn't ever laugh at anybody over something like that.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

I'd slap Ed in the face, you know. If I could. And you could laugh.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

You're my brave champion on a shining white--um--Greyhound Bus. Wouldn't be nice of me, thought.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

^______^ I shall be. Or something like it, at least. Ed deserves it.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Squeeeee. ^____________^ My champion! *swoons* Does anybody deserve it?

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

♥ ♥ Lovethee. Ed does.

SO. SO, SO, SO. I was printing out a summary of the play for my mom, who gets easily lost at Shakespeare. And so I went to sparknotes. ... ...and promptly choked.

In the character list (and left out of this production):

Conrad - One of Don John's more intimate associates, entirely devoted to Don John. Several recent productions have staged Conrad as Don John's potential male lover, possibly to intensify Don John's feelings of being a social outcast and therefore motivate his desire for revenge.

Lovetheeso. Are you sure?

....OMG OMG OMG OMG. XD *DIES A LOT TIMES A LOT* HERO IS NOT HEARING THIS. XD OMG. *DIEDIEDIEDED*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Lovelovelo-- Quite sure. He's a villain.

HOW DID I NEVER NOTICE THAT BEFORE? XD XD XD OMG OMG OMG. I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Twopointnineninenine-- A plain-dealing one? No, I suppose he's not so plain-dealing, is he?

I HAVE NO IDEA. NONE AT ALL. ALL I CAN PICTURE IS DON REEVES GETTING THE OILED-DOWN BACKRUB FROM HIM, AND IT'S KILLING MEEEEEEEEEEE.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Lessthanthreeeeeeee. No, nothing plain-dealing about him.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I KNOW.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

<33333333333333333 Okay.

...I THINK WE HAVE TO WATCH THAT MAAN WHILE YOU'RE HERE. AMONG THE EIGHTEEN OTHER THINGS WE HAVE TO WATCH.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

♥ ♥ *hearts; ♥ ♥

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I THINK WE DEFINITELY HAVE TO. XD

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I KNOW LIKE FOR REALLY. ARE YOU SURE YOU CAN'T STAY EIGHT MORE DAYS? OR COME BACK THE WEEK AFTER?

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

I DON'T THINK THOSE WOULD WORK OUT. XD I COULD POSSIBLY STAY 'TIL MONDAY.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

REALLY? REALLY? 'TIL MONDAY? *jumps up and down*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

POSSIBLY? IT'S MEMORIAL DAY, YOU SEE.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

OMG OMG OMG. ^_____________________^

...The only thing is, you'd have to come with me to work. Could you handle four hours with my people?

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Well, I dunno. What time do you work?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Twelve to four. And--I wouldn't be upset or anything if you didn't, you know. Not everybody thinks they're nice. :D Some people think they're crazy.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

It's not that-- I doubt I'd think they're crazy and they do sound nice. I'm just not that keen on-- well, people.

I could go home Monday morning, I suppose-- or we could stay with the 8 o'clock Sunday bus...?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

And that's--really that's understandable. Plus they would be so confused when Charlie said something like 'ohhhhh, ohhhhhhh, B2' and I started cracking up, since with you there I would not be able to restrain myself. >_>

I guess late Sunday. Daddy won't like going out in the morning. *cries*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

And I'd hate to confuse them-! You may tell them hello from me, however, if you'd like. (Also, I suspect we are going to have intolerable levels of Hamlet for all the rest of the people at your party. :D :D :D)

;______________; I'm sorry.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

I shall be sure to. And I think Lillie is coming along. (... XD We so are.)

Don't be. I love you. <333

Oh, and by the way--

(22:39:18) BitterRusset: Arthur/Percy is going to be illegally fun; Cleo/Horatio is so already happening; and Beelzebub/N. is disturbingly plausible, given that N. sees killing people as a good thing.
(22:39:42) MhariMackenna: ARTHUR, YOU DIRTY OLD MAN. :O
(22:39:52) BitterRusset: XD XD XD
(22:40:34) MhariMackenna: real cause of battle: who got to take percy out for ice cream.
(22:40:40) MhariMackenna: oh jesus i think i just killed myself.
(22:40:50) BitterRusset: *falls over DED*
(22:40:58) BitterRusset: Take that, Lance.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

Excellent! (Lillie, at least, is used to it. XD)

Oh, good. ^____________^!

AHAHAHAHAHAHA. IT'S SO TRUE. XD ...Imean.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

(Lillie's limits, even hers, will be tested, yea faith.)

^_______^ <3333333

... O:D

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

(As are everyone's. XD Poor Maria.)

^_________________________^

You are wonderful.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

(... XD XD XD That's Waen, of course.)

^__________________________________________^ love.

...me what?

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

(THAT'S WHAT I SAID. ...)

Lovelovelo--!

you wonderful. wonderful you.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

(OH NO IT ISN'T.)

^__^

Silly you, you silly, love you.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

(OH YES IT IS.)

Love youuuuuu... wonderful.

Sunset Boulevard is quite frightening, although the acting is utterly brilliant. Actually, that's probably why it's so frightining.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*nodnodnodnodnods* It's just--augh. And the lady. I wanted to hide under my chair.

[mmebahorel.livejournal.com]

now what do Norma Desmond ever do to you? (besides be batshit insane and shoot Joe Gillis, but you're neither Joe nor Betty nor the chimp for that matter, so it shouldn't be a big deal. And the musical is one of ALW's best, dammit. Even if it needs to cut the sung transitions and I could do without the whole buying suits scene as it just runs like a rerun of Rainbow High from Evita even though the scene is in film canon and even though it's hard to completely hate a song that includes the line "You know what you can do with your vicuna".)

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Frightened me with her frightening eyes, she did. (I do not see how anybody could ever make a musical of that film, ever.)

[a-pale-death.livejournal.com]

*would probably be offended*

*if, y'know, he actually thought of himself as Ed*

*(he always tells the truth, but, then, he's a shark, not an eating disorder, so hey)*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

*flaps a little* Well, I don't mind sharks, you know. I don't mind animals at all, even if I'm a bit frightened of them sometimes. But--Ed'rashtekaresket is much more dignified, isn't it? Better than Ed, I think. Just plain Ed, that is.
