Llamas (named Ralph) and Klingons and Jedi... Oh my...
Posted Apr 28, 2003
So here we are then.
I went to Starfest this past weekend, and boy was it a /trip./
I think it's fairly safe to say that I had more fun there than I ever have before. Why is this, you ask? Well I'll /tell/ you.
First off, I was dressed as Death. No, not the big seven foot tall Death whose all bony and covered in a big black cloak with a big white horse named Blinky... Well all right so the bit about the horse is right, but that really is just about it. Anyway. If I can ever get the thing scanned I'll put a link to a pic up. But let's put it this way; there was a whole hell of a lot of black and grey fabric involved. And a rather nice scythe as well.
But yes, of the Death thing. I had a lot of people snapping pictures of me, particularly in the bat'lith(sp?) class, as I was totally mixing styles (tae kwon do, tai chi, and ballet will jack up the best of martial artisis,) and kicking down lots of supposedly "experienced" veterans at the sport. Oh, and then there was that Anakin Pratwalker (at least that's what I call him) who was extremely slow on the draw (meaning that when he said some stupid things about Death being a big zeven foot bony guy with a big black cloak I had my scythe blade at his neck before he could even think about putting his hand on his lightsabre. He left me alone after that... Heh.). Evidently, people like to see little blonde girls kick bum. And I am 
with that.
But yeah, moving on. There was a Harry Potter club thing, and they sorted me (...into Slytherin. I laughed for /hours/ and mock-complained about it being discrimination, "'cause can I help it if I'm Death's granddaughter?" and all that.) and I went to Defense Against the Dark Arts class and got generally harassed by the Headmaster by telling him that if I had a Patronous, it would indeed be a llama. He said something to the effect of "Yes, a dementor'd just be terrified, wouldn't it, being run down by a llama?" and Of course I said that yes, it would, wouldn't it? And I assume he took points from Slytherin house for my being a smartarse.
The llama thing brings up an inteersting bit tho: one of our fellow researchers (or at least someone who knows of him,) was there in the class! Ralph the bloody Wonder Llama! But I only saw him the once, so I am sad, but I shall harass him until I get him to go for coffee or something. He was dressed as a demihuman kitty person and was being generally cool. So yes. Coffee shall be done, if I can swing it.
So yes, not much else happened until the dance, where I ended up being a finalist in the dance competition. (What can I say besides ELF BOOTY GOT SOUL!)
Anyway I'm off for now. Cheers!

Went to a concert. Lots of punks. Heard a fat man with a washboard say something obscene about Tony Blair. Inhaled secondhand pot smoke. Got a cold.
Had a bloody good time.

This mess in my head is a mess standing out...

Happiness is just a word to me
And it might have meant a thing or two
If I'd known the difference
Emptiness, a lonely parody
And my life, another smoking gun
A sign of my indifference
Always keeping safe inside
Where no one ever had a chance
To penetrate a break in
Let me tell you some have tried
But I would slam the door so tight
That they could never get in
Kept my cool under a lock and key
And I never shed a tear
Another sign of my condition
Fear of love or bitter vanity
That kept me on the run
The main events of my confession
I kept a chain upon my door
That would shake the shame of Cain
Into a blind submission
The burning ghost without a name
Was still calling all the same
But I just wouldn't listen
The longer I'd stall
The further I'd crawl
The further I'd crawl
The harder I'd fall
I was crawlin' into the fire
The more that I saw
The further I'd fall
The further I'd fall
The lower I'd crawl
I kept fallin' into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
Suddenly it occurred to me
The reason for the run and hide
Had totaled my existence
Everything left on the other side
Could never be much worse than this
But could I go the distance
I faced the door and all my shame
Tearin' off each piece of chain
Until they all were broken
But no matter how I tried
The other side was locked so tight
That door it wouldn't open
Gave it all that I got
And started to knock
Shouted for someone
To open the lock
I just gotta get through the door
And the more that I knocked
The hotter I got
The hotter I got
The harder I'd knock
I just gotta break through the door
Gotta knock a little harder
Break through the door
