And who will be her lover?
Jul. 20th, 2006 12:55 pmLast night (when the word came down/Ten dead in Chinatown...) I had a dream that I was composing a black metal version of the classic Fleetwood Mac song "Rhiannon." I couldn't seem to get past that vexing hook of "would you stay if she promised you heaven? Will you ever win?" but I must say that part was turning out rather nice. I was just figuring out how to sing it with this nice raspy Cradle of Filth-style shriek. Before I woke up I was obsessing over whether to credit the original songwriters in the liner notes by their full names or by initial plus last name (e.g., M. Fleetwood, S. Nicks, etc.)
In the waking world, I have job-hunting fatigue. I filled out four applications yesterday. I'm pooped and taking today off from it. I just hope something will open up soon. If I don't get any interviews from this round I'm going to heavily overhaul my resume. Today I went and played a few hands of L5R with my dad and that was a nice diversion and change of pace from the daily pouring over of Monster.com.
I don't know why I bother watching news coverage of Israel conflict. I believe the Bible, so it's not like I don't already know how it all ends.
On a more profane note, I have found it is fun to use the names of male porn stars as adjectives for food items of great size. Today I enjoyed a carbonated beverage from Quik Trip which was positively Ron Jeremian in stature, then came home and chowed down on some brautwurst of John Holmesian proportions. As
megiloth would say, I ain't queer or nothin'. I just believe it wasteful to deny the humorous potential of big penis. Ayup. Big penis humor; it was good enough for Aristophanes and it's good enough for me!
I suddenly feel uncomfortable ending this entry with talk of penises. So... should I create that seething black metal cover of "Rhiannon" or what?

I might have to bring that up next time I see Brian chowing down on that extra long Sabrett's. I'm sure he would appreciate it. Or at least look at me funny and say "dammit... you're spoiling the meal!"

Date: 2006-07-20 07:59 pm (UTC)also, I love your big penis humor. I'm going to have to start doing that, too, just for fun. A couple of friends and I like to go to the restauants where they take your name and then say it over the intercom, but we give them porn star names, and look to see if anyone perks up when they hear that Herschel Savage or Aurora Snow have just been sat. ahahahahahahahahahsigh. ;)

Black metal covers of anything Fleetwood Mac is brilliance. It must be done, and it must be shared.
