I apparently died yesterday. Paramedics searched for my blood pressure and found none. Pretty weird, considering I was kind of talking. LOL
Then I apparently resurrected, because the upper digit was 70, even if the lower one still wasn't found.
Now it's 120/85, so I guess I'm all alive again. A pity I don't really feel like I am.
That was fun.

A friend e-mailed this link to me. He was going through the list of bands there and wondering what kind of sin is "texan" next to George Michael's name.
http://lovegodsway.org/GayBands
Apparently, Metallica's gay, as well as the Grateful Dead, Nirvana and Frank Sinatra. And Ted Nugent (I'd pay to see them say that to HIS face). And Elton John, of course, is so gay, he's listed TWICE.
I don't know about you, but to me, the site is HYSTERICAL. Discrediting itself, from first to last page.
Plus apparently those who love god's way can't spell. Look at the logo. It might be just my distorted perception, but I swear, "GODS WAY" the way it's spelt there has a distinctly pagan sound to me.
Back to rolling on the floor.

Well, I have a few friends on my Russian blog who are anime fans. Me, I'm not into this at all save for the very few exceptions, but when I saw this quiz in a friends entry I thought I'd take it. The test is called "Are You A Seme Or An Uke". For those not familiar with anime terms, a seme is the top, and an uke is the one who bottoms. ;) So I took it. And lookee what it told me! :D
Don't Fuck With Me Seme
Serious and to the point, and sometimes bordering on the sadistic, it takes a special breed of uke to satisfy your needs. You tend to be anti-social with little patience for most people. You need someone to challenge you and push you to your limits, and then be able to take the punishment you dish out, which frequently involves rope and alchohol. This is what makes the Badass Uke the yin for your yang, as you're the only one able to put them in line and satisfy each other.
Dude, doesn't that make me a total Sixx? Because if Vince isn't the Badass Uke, I don't know who is. LOL I mean, the description sure fits. :)
Cheered me up, even. :) Wanna know what yaoi people will make of you? Click here. :)
*still giggling* I'm being totally silly today...

I haven't been pic-whoring in quite a while, so I thought I'd post some stuff. Better than talking nonsense again, huh? ;)
This is me, sometime during winter holidays. I'm possibly out of my mind, because I'm only wearing this jacket and nothing else on me, and it's really, really good that other pics from that night turned out too dark to see anything in them. LOL
( Yours truly )
And this is my cat, Alice. :D She was helping us with unpacking all that Christmas-y stuff and decorating the apartment, so she finally got so tired she had to lie down and have some rest. ;)
( Santa's Little Helper )
This is also my cat, showing some 'tude. ;) She's so punky at times. LOL And she's a hunter!
( Little Devil )
Here are a couple of places in my town.
( Two houses I really like )
And finally I decided to show you some shots of my room. Not that it's awfully interesting (and it's surely nothing pretty) but I figured someone might want to have an idea about the place I live in. Just out of curiousity. :)
( Come on in... MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!! )
Well, that's all! I bet you're hoping you never get to stay with me now, aren't ya? LOL

I guess when you remember (and sort of celebrate) your favorite rocker's kids' birthdays, it's the most inadequate degree of fangirlism. But still, I'm partial to that kid.
So Gunner Nicholas Sixx turns 16 today. :) In two years he'll be legal. :D Hope everything goes well for him and hope all this shit with Nikki's divorce didn't hit him too hard and well, just hope to see a more recent photo of him some day. LOL
Many happy returns of the day and all that. :)
Monday, January 15, 2007
Well, I'm awake at an ungodly time. (Yeah, 10 AM became an ungodly time for me as of lately; but in fact I had to wake up at 7, anyway, so I feel my point is justified.) Our New Year/Xmas holidays are finally over and the classes at the postgraduate have started again, and I decided that just for the sake of pertaining the remains of some kind of righteousness in my image I need to appear there at least once in two weeks. So today's the day. *heavy sigh*
That explained, you really should excuse my being grumpy...
( And thus, enter my rantings on movies, critics and entertainment... )
End of rant.
Thank you. :)
Ah, found the original adress for the page I was talking about: NEON - Movies. And again, I'm biased, but I will stand my ground: Casino Royale and Happy Feet ended up among Carol's B's purely by accident...

To wake up and find this paritucular interview in the news.
Michael Monroe apologizing. Michael Monroe. Apologizing. Holy fuck, what ever happened? Any of the three finally cornered him somewhere and told him where to put his mouth if he has nothing better to do with it?..
But whatever it is, it has a real quote-worthy Sixx saying:
"Yeah, I'm willing to bury the hatchet — into Andy McCoy's head!"
Have to agree with Mike, it's a great quote. LOL
*thinks back to the brawl* In fact, it produced some nice quotability back then, too. If I remember right, it was then that Nikki called Monroe an "anal astronaut" - which is still one of my favorite set-expressions EVAH...
Thursday, January 11, 2007
Okay. Here it is. Unproofread and everything, but since hardly anyone is going to read it, anyway, I guess it's okay. LOL
B, auto-search the document for the word "rain", and it'll deliver you almost to the beginning of the sex scene. :) Which is rather crappy, because I lost the ability to write sex some time ago, as I mentioned before, but still it's there.
Everyone else who ever reads it to the end: please, PLEASE say what you thought of it, because it's the only time I'm writing an RPS fic that's totally not connected to Motley and is out of rock fandom alltogether. It's very important for me to know, whether I still can do anything with those taken away. :)
The thing:
WHO YOU ARE
You know the rap. Mel Gibson, Rudy Youngblood, Mel's 51 and Rudy's 25, and they were filming that movie Apocalypto last winter and spring in Mexico, and then it went to theaters and ate what I had for brains.
Obligatory Rudy pic:
(With Mr. Gibson, because the occasion grants it.)
Sorry for cluttering your friendlist with pics. :)
Wednesday, January 10, 2007
So I finished it.
Five days; 13,200+ words.
Funny how I know no-one will read it, but still feel accomplished. :)
After all, I guess, we ARE writing for ourselves. :)
Hope Rudy sues me so I meet him in court. Because Mel definitely won't...
:D

There is only one meaning in which the term PWP applies to anything I do, and the meaning is "Porn? WHAT PORN?!". *grumbles*
17 fucking pages without as much as a grope! Trust me to write the most boring fic you could think of...
Because Rudy insisted on dancing his grass dance, and Mel insisted on doing that infamous jump off a 17-storied building, and now it all turned into such nonsense that not even B is going to read it, even though she wanted to.
But at least I'm writing, yeah? *a weak smile* And I even did write sex (which finally happened on pages 18, 19 and 20). Yay me. Woot. I mean, SHOOT. SHOOT ME.
While I'm at it and because K teased me about Rudy being a woman: HE'S NOT. :D I think he doesn't look too girly in these pics:
 
*contemplates* I wonder, does it make me weird that I also still find Mel Gibson rather hot even now when he's 51? Ah, scrap this. I think Al Pacino's hot. And that's older...

Once an RPS writer - always an RPS writer.
Everyone here in Russia watched Apocalypto. Everyone in our slash community who was interested in the movie went writing fics. Like, maya-based, jungle-located fics, yes? Jaguar Paw and friends, so to say.
I?
Am in the middle of writing a Mel Gibson/Rudy Youngblood ficlet.
Yeah, I know Mel is 51, okay? And I know he's Roman Catholic. And I know how many times he's been accused of homophobia, so don't tell me. Because those are no impediments, I guess. Because I exist outside the realm of common sense. /sarcasm
But... Rudy.
I mean, there really is a pattern. He's part Mexican and part Indian, and he sings, and... *sigh*
But yeah, I'm totally, totally incurable by now, I guess.
Smile, Rudy... You ate my brain, kid.

I went to see Wolfhound today. :)
The movie... well, it's not exactly that it sucks, let's just put it this way... it leaves MUCH to be desired. It could've been much better, but someone in the crew hired an imbecile for a script writer's job, and so yeah, we have what we have. The only thing left from the book are Wolfhound himself (Alexander Bukharov, who played him, is INCREDIBLE. He's mainly a theater actor, and I guess it's good school because the way he plays... the way his eyes change, even... it's amazing) and the Unflying Bat - now, the Bat is... LOVE! Just plain LOVE, gah, I totally adore the little creature! :) Even if it hadn't been for Bukharov, the Bat would've saved the movie single... oh, single-wingedly, I guess. :D
Foreign distributors have already bought the movie (did so before it ever premierred, in fact), so some of you might see it. If you see the same - or roughly the same - cut of it as we do, I have only one thing to tell you: please DO get through the first 30 minutes of the movie. Give it a chance. The first half an hour is disastrous, absolutely. From then on, the movie picks up somewhat. Too bad it's full of references to every known blockbaster out there, from Star Wars to Lord Of The Rings to The Fifth Element... but the main character - he's BEAUTIFUL. I think he's worth it.
Also, great shots of nature. The entourage, so to say. :)
I could've gotten majorly dissapointed were I not the spoiler-loving type. I read everything on the movie that appeared on the Net after its premiere showing (Dec 28th) and THAT was where I got disappointed, because everyone kept saying how crappy it was. Okay, those were mainly the book fans. I'm also a book fan, but I never expected the movie to follow the book, so maybe that's why my experience was less traumatic than the most. :)
I'm still gonna buy it on DVD. :)

Dude, but it's weird.
I woke up this morning (which started 3.30 PM for me, because my night ended about half past eight in the morning) with a hangover. And I totally don't remember what I did this night between 2 and 8 AM. I came over here and saw this post about sitting there and watching Slade on the TV, and I just don't remember posting it!
I mean, I don't remember drinking. And I couldn't have gotten drunk. I'm on the wagon, and so I didn't buy any booze at all. Maybe my parents have some hidden somewhere for my dad's B-day party, but I have no idea where. And I know for sure that my own parents won't offer me drinks, even on a New Year's Eve night.
So what was that, then? Euphoria? Can it have after-effects that are as... physiological as a hangover? Natural endorphins? LOL
Weird.
But anyway, the year started, and I'm stil euphorical about that. Hope it won't result in another hangover tomorrow. LOL

Am three hours 28 minutes into the New Year and totally happy. Have watched the obligatory traditional assortment of pop stars on one of the channels with my family (and I swear I liked it, because fuck, it was NEW YEAR!), and now one of the local channels is broadcasting "The Best of Slade", so I'm watching that.
Feels great.
Once again - Happy New Year to everyone, and hope you have a blast tonight. :D Whatever might be meant by that - whatever way you like to spend your time.
AND BE HAPPY. :)
Sunday, December 31, 2006
Finally - FINALLY - it's gonna be over. Right here it has only about 8 hours left. And it makes me perfectly happy. :) (Not to mention that Nikki Sixx made me a NY present by holding this Royal Underground event in Aspen. Now the Net is swarming with photos, and damn, he looks fine. :D)
This was a hard year. Sure, a lot of good stuff happened, but somehow bad stuff overshadowed that too much, no matter how I tried to stay positive, and in the end, I just gave up trying. Yet, I'll try to revise the balance.
Good stuff:
( Read more... )
Bad stuff:
( Read more... )
So, this year was hard. Really, really hard. But it's almost through, and I survived it, and now I think everything is going to be okay, because just before the end of the year things started fixing themselves. My health is finally stabilizing. I have money. I feel creative. I'm meeting this New Year with the best and most beloved friends I've ever had - my family. I'm pretty calm - since Christmas I haven't been in a bad mood once. I feel at peace with everything that happened - I think I finally accepted it and reconciled with it, and I'm ready to move on.
And it's snowing. :)
So, to everybody who's reading it, to all my friends: HAPPY NEW YEAR! May it be much, much better than this, ending one. May it bring you joy, love, happiness, well-being, everything that you want and more. May you have lots of strength - and as few occasions where you need it as possible.
I love you all. :)
P.S. Almost forgot! I now have a site. I never thought I'd finish it before the New Year, but I did. It's awfully designed and has a really weird system of navigation, besides, it acts and looks weird in Firefox... but hey, IT'S ALIVE!!!
You can see it here: http://triplesix.narod.ru
I have no idea whether it's going to load too slow, as Russian sites usually do for foreign browsers. But I tried to make it not as graphically heavy as that last site of mine, the Motley site. So try it. :)

KEITH MOTHERFUCKIN' RICHARDS, BABY!!!!!!
So this time it wasn't a rumor! Pirates go rockin'! :D
Monday, December 25, 2006
I'll just congratulate you guys right here. :) I know that Xmas is tomorrow, but for me Xmas Eve has always been way more special, so I'll post this tonight. :)
MERRY CHRISTMAS, PEOPLE!
Wishing you everything, everything, everything that you wish for yourself, have fun and BE HAPPY. :)
It says 'Merry Christmas!', and so do I. :D

I got the book, Brigitte! THANK YOU SO MUCH! And the card, it's so beautiful. :) It's quite appropriate to send a Satanist Xmas greetings, because Satanists still want to have winter fun. :P YAY! Will start reading soon. :)
H, I got your card, too! It was so cool to find it there in my mailbox! :D THANK YOU!!!
And you already know, C, but I got your Xmas card on Sixx's Bday, which was strangely appropriate... LOL THANK YOU!
Bad, bad, bad me, because I'm not sending cards to anyone. :( You'll have to forgive me, guys. It hasn't been easy for me. Yesterday was the first time in a loooong while that I dared myself to get out of the house by myself. I freak out even if it's a five minute walk to the nearest food store. :( I know it sounds sick, but I just hope that I'll stop feeling this way come New Year.
And today I was taken out to the movies, saw Apocalypto and LOVED IT. And I have a new crush. :) Damn, not only do I fall for Italians, it turns out, I'm weak for those Mexican-Indian mixes, too. :D

I just feel the need to say it somewhere. Because the person left the conversation before I had the chance to tell it to her and because she probably woulnd't have listened anyway, and because I just feel the need to make my point.
So.
There are people. And there is such thing as a relationship. There are people who are in a relationship. There are people who aren't. Some people are in a relationship because they need it. Some people are in a relationship, and they don't need it, but they think that they should be in one because it's generally accepted that people should come in couples. Some people aren't in a relationship because they can't establish any, even though they want to.
AND! Some people aren't in a relationship because they don't need any steady relationship in their life.
They just don't need it. They're fine without it. Actually, they're better off without it because they wouldn't know what to do with it if they had it.
YES SUCH PEOPLE EXIST. Deal with it.
Trying to prove that if a person isn't in a relationship then she/he is invariably deeply unhappy and unsatisfied, because of COURSE she/he wants to be, trying to prove that all people who say they don't want any relationship are just saying it because they can't get any and are showing off in order to cover up their insecurity - it's like saying that a cow doesn't eat meat because nobody feeds it any meat, and lists itself as a herbivore because it wants to take a stand and look cool and is afraid that we'll guess no-one's giving any meat to it.
(That, of course, works both ways. Trying to prove that a tiger doesn't gobble hay and eats meat instead because it doesn't want to look worse than other predators is no smarter. Some people are in a relationship because they need it and because it works for them, and trying to label them 'uncool' or 'conservative' for that is just as wrong.)
In short, both cows and tigers eat what they eat because eating something else would hurt their systems. And it's the same with people. Some people are born to have a lifemate. Some people are born to be loners. The first kind are unhappy on their own; the second kind freak out if someone stays attached to them for two long.
In a nutshell: if someone tells you that he/she doesn't have a significant other because she doesn't need one, it might just be true.
Honestly.

Today Nikki Sixx turns 48.
Dude, now that's a number! I mean, that's not even old, but had someone told him he'd live that long, then, back in the early 80s, I bet he'd just laugh in their face.
And he did live that long! And I sure hope he's gonna live twice as long and then some. Come on, I saw his granddad - in this family, men live long and age damn nicely. :D In another 48 years Sixx is still gonna kick ass, dude!
Sixxy retrospective under the cut, just because!
( Nikki, Nikki and more Nikki! )
If it weren't for that guy, I probably wouldn't be alive right now. Back when I was 15, it was he, his band, his music and - and I mean it! - his interviews that made me realize where I was headed and turn around. And just keep me going. So, Nikki... HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Hope everything will be fine. I wish you luck. Wish you success. Wish you happiness. Health. Everything and more. Hope that everything works out fine for you. And - ROCK ON!!! You crazy thing you.
Many happy returns of the day, dude. :)
