Someone Please Stop Me...
Aug. 20th, 2003 07:16 amThere is a version of "Luckenbach, Texas" sung by Kenny Chesney and Kid Rock, that is now available on a Waylon tribute album.
I think I just need more coffee.
Oh! Speaking of...when I woke up this morning Dawn had made coffee and muffins and I closed my eyes and pretended I was at Vividcon. Sadly, no one yelled, "Penis!" so I knew I was still at home. Although, now that I think about it, I was the person yelling penis, so I suppose I do have it in my power to recreate that experience at home...but it just is not the same.
Dawn is totally into the dough/sauce slash from my last post. She wants me to write where the dough and the sauce have fallen madly in love, but the dough still holds back from the sauce a bit, and one day the sauce comes home and finds the dough covered in refried beans. The sauce just stands there and watches and the camera then pans to the avocados falling to the floor. Later on, the sauce is not mad about the refried beans. The sauce tells the dough that it knows what the dough is all about and does not want the dough to change - but the sauce wants to know why it is here? Is it because the can fell off the counter and is dented? And the dough can't answer and the sauce leaves. The dough actually has to be refridgerated for a while, cause all of the emotion is difficult for it to process, but after a long talk with some jumbo martini olives, it seeks the sauce out. It finds the sauce in the pantry making time with some linguine. It tells the linguine to fuck off and then tells the sauce that yes, the sauce is with the dough because of the fall off the counter and the denting. But that is not why the dough wants the sauce to stay. The dough warns the sauce that this doesn't change anything, they are still just ingredients and the dough is still gonna do exactly what the dough wants to do, seeing other sauces, sometimes refried beans, sometimes just cheese, but it also includes coming home to the sauce.
I think I'm getting choked up here.

What is truly sad....

Date: 2003-08-20 05:16 am (UTC)Or Batman.
One or the other.
Maybe Wolverine...or Wesley...or Wolverine and Wesley...
Wait. I was going to stop with the random exploitation of naked men...
I can see that...you should do the vid...
Date: 2003-08-20 05:30 am (UTC)Wolverine and Wesley slash? Wolvie on the bike...wes on his bike...on a bike together perhaps...bent over a bike...
Right. We have to stop. I mean that would be like picturing Spike going to the Babylon for a drink...
Spike..Brian..Justin...

We are bad and wrong...
Date: 2003-08-20 06:11 am (UTC)I wish Gale Harold was a robot. I don't think robots mind slash.
Gale Robot?? You think they have those on ebay?
Date: 2003-08-20 06:17 am (UTC)Gale Bots...Would it be wrong to want slash Spike..the vampire...but is he a vampire anymore? Ohhh think Spike could share his bling bling with the Gale bot..that would be a true sign of his undying love for the Gale Bot.
Wrong? How could something so beautiful be so wrong?
Robots: not just for plot devices anymore
Date: 2003-08-20 07:11 am (UTC)See - this only works as Not Exploitation if Gale (the original) is actually a robot. Otherwise the robot would be exploiting Gale's image and that would be wrong.
Now if Spike was actually a gay vampire robot, all of our lives would be so much easier. But since he is not I will drop it.
But I still wonder/hope that maybe Gale is a Mandroid.

Date: 2003-08-20 07:18 am (UTC)But this is why I don't make vids. One song that I always go, "Damn why can't I make vids" to is Master of Puppets by Metallica. Thing is, the song is like, 8 freaking minutes long.... you'd have to use a lot of filler, or have a really epic story to tell.
*sigh*

Date: 2003-08-20 10:08 am (UTC)"You!" cries the avocado. "You're the bastards who kicked me off the table."
The beans apologize. There was this really hot dough. It was rising like a souffle. The beans thought it was love.
The avocado is not mollified. It starts whaling on the beans like mad. The avocado and beans stuggle, getting all mushy and greasy and ... suddenly, they're overcome by their passion! They don't hate each other--they want to fuck each other! They should have known all along! They have such mad passionate sex that when they slam into the table leg, it cracks and the table falls down on them. The beans and the avocado continue to screw as the sawdust showers over them and strangely triumphant music plays.

Date: 2003-08-20 11:49 am (UTC)I'm sobbing here! The ridiculous romance of it all- Sauce & Dough!
Date: 2003-08-20 11:03 am (UTC)But don't skip over how the Sauce fell off the counter! Was it the anchovies- who callously & with a bigoted heart pushed the sauce off the counter while the dough was helplessly watching? Does the sauce know how the dough watched the sauce recover from it's fall & got back up on the counter?
*sniff* I'm still choked up from reading this. & am now off to buy some sauce (organic in a can) & fresh dough- so I might... well, give them the care & love & heat they so richly deserve. I'll watch over them, observe how the sauce bubbles over the dough and the dough reciprocates with browning & it's own risen pockets of heat... yes, that's what I'll do. I'll just watch & protect them...

Date: 2003-08-20 11:08 am (UTC)Ohh- Yes! There can be flashbacks!
Date: 2003-08-20 11:15 am (UTC)bwahahhaaha and this baby, is why you're my Kool Aid
Date: 2003-08-20 02:21 pm (UTC)*sniff* It's okay...people already say I'm evil. It's the whole supposed to have been born on Halloween but came a couple of days early.
See- & I was *supposed* to be born on Christmas-
Date: 2003-08-20 02:36 pm (UTC)Yes- given my odd dreams last night (haven't posted yet- rather disturbing- featuring a staircase leading to no where- mirrors-my mom & restaurants)- I can feel the oncoming Pizza dreams- the fresh herbs & tomatoes eager to become part of sauce, the hands kneading dough- eager to get it to the right consistency- pliable- yet able to rise & fall, rise & fall- all in preparation for sauce. & then... the brick oven with the blazing flame- the heat, the steam, the sweat on my brown as I watch sauce & dough succomb to the ... heat. *sigh* Is it bedtime yet?
damn...

Re: damn...
Date: 2003-08-20 09:00 pm (UTC)By the way -- thanks again for burning all of that for me! I watched the rest of the "Get Some Lovin'" vid, and.. wow. The end is *so* cute. I want to see them kiss like that some more! Too bad I'm still stuck in season 1. Thankfully my situation will change in about 10 days, and then it's all Prom Dancing and That Scene With The White Sheets.
Re: damn...
Date: 2003-08-21 10:08 am (UTC)"That Scene With The White Sheets."
This cracks me up because your basis and knowledge of the pairing is mainly based on vids. Love it. Like me with Highlander . Oh - Got a vid rec for ya too - it contains pretty much all of season one and a teeny tiny bit of season 2. You want now -or should I wait?

Date: 2003-08-21 05:27 pm (UTC)"Fast As You Can" by silvia kundera - found the link in her LJ and watched it this afternoon. Technically, there are problems but it worked for me on a total emotional level. She has many more, but I haven't watched them yet. Her LJ, however; was cracking my shit up today.

54187.html, will you marry me? I'm the internet persona of a sixteen-year-old already-in-a-relationship lesbian, and you're a bunch of digital information on the LiveJournal server. But we can make it work. I believe this.
