I always have premonitional dreams. According to my latest, the Simpsons and Marty will get mad at me while we drop furiously from the skies, spiraling down and down, and they will link hands in an attempt to stay together upon the inevitable gloriously gruesome impact but leave me to fall at my own pace off to the side. I scrabble pleadingly at my buddy Homer, on whose good side I have always resided, but he turns up his nose. Oh dear. Marty? Naw, he's with Homey on this one.
No, my betrayal was far too insulting to ever merit a hand, any hand, to grasp desperately as I plunge through the clouds like a sack of insanity-potatoes. They are insaner than regular potatoes.
Perhaps, they rationalized, linking together would increase their surface area and slightly decrease their downward velocity. Or sum shit. Either way they left me out of it. I plummet helplessly beside their selfish little camp circle, backs to me, no hope of diminished velocity, the ground rises maniacally to meet my perfectplastic nose. Crash.
I awoke in a theater, the previews showed a belated Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert trailer. It is my favorite film featuring magnificent actors in drag (Hugo Weaving, Guy Pearce), though I don't know many. Except the one with blacker than the blackest black times infinity-Wesley Snipes and the guy who played Darry Curtis and John Leguizamo. Not as bomb. I prodded Marty to let him know it was one of favorite films but then I remembered he does not prefer humor of the overtly homosexual variety. He and Homer were suddenly not mad at me. 'Kay... Also, popcorn. Khristine was there too she's the shit.
I called Loho and heard one of her roommates tripping the fuck out and having an existential crisis in the background. Loho and I are experts at existential crises. Questionable Methods, Kickass Results. Is our motto. Unofficially. Okay I just made it up.
Uh I had my first existential crisis when I was four. I could not, for the life of me, stop imagining what my relatives' reactions would be if this reality had gone on its CORRECT course and I had actually died when the concrete floor-fountain attacked me instead of mostly surviving, and acquiring a gnarly head-scar to boot. My oldest uncle struck me as being the sort to be quite distressed even though he is a bit awkward-odd and I don't much like him.
That was a bit.. uh, age-inappropriate. Also, I realized at far too early an age the pointlessness of Candyland. I think I enjoy it more now, actually. Dude, the colors...
For a while I was trying to relive my childhood and take the time to savor each dorky little thing prematurely abandoned as I force-aged in an attempt to escape only-child-mind-suffocation. Like Peter Rabbit and Freakazoid and Star Trek and bunnies. Heee...
I think that's called regression. I grew up way too fast, whatever.
And yet I haven't grown up at all! Snortgigglefart.
