You may have noticed something the past two weeks: God is trying to sear the Pacific Northwest before serving it with a light salad and a lovely vinaigrette dressing.
It's too fucking hot to write. The past week all I've done is sit around and prayed for death by sno-cone maker. I finally took the floor AC unit we have (and haven't used for years) and set it up in my study where my computer used to be. Which, of course, meant buying a new workdesk and moving everything.
Alas, I have neither the inclination nor the discipline to do this in a neat, orderly fashion. As I stated earlier, it's TOO FUCKING HOT. And I tend to be a whiny prick when it gets like this.
So my study, which has never been the cleanest room in the house, now looks like Caligula's bathroom. On his birthday. Books, weapons, miscellaneous computer parts, a couple of rapiers, beer bottles, the odd sharp knickknack from some third world country strewn everywhere like a miniature hurricane hit the room.
I'll get to it, I guess. But that AC unit is kicking ass! I can write again!
And I finished that collage I was working on. Let me know what you think.

Not bad, the collage.
Don't cut your ear off.
Wow, that was fast. I thought you were doing yardwork.
I didn't cut my ear off, why would I do that?
Do you know how hard it is getting that damn martian mask on in the first place??
You wanna know what I think?
I think you found some good doses.
There are about 12 of my favorite things in that. Heavy Metal, Hellraiser, The Old Gentleman, Ellison, The Black Hole, Snake Pliskin, The Thing. Oh, and Dr. Who which is the most awesome thing ever if the people who made Torchwood can please get renditioned to Abu Ghraib now.
What, no "The Prisoner?"
BTW, did you hear that there's a Prisoner remake coming?
at least I know your still breathing
LASERBLAST!!! Oh man, thanks for throwing that in there for the Misties. Smmmmmokin'!

I have another Robot attack story you might like to see at Dojo Rat

Love the MST3K guys watching it all.
Vincent Van Gogh. Ear. Cut his own off. (Though some theories have it that the missing lobe was a result of a knock-down with Gauguin, who bit it off ...)
You gonna do art, you have to read up on the history so you can wave it at people when you go through your Blue Period, like Picasso and all ...
Artist - ear = Van Gogh
Where does that little gold box at the bottom come from? I have a screensaver where it takes itself apart and puts itself back together in weird ways.
BTW this is the _best_ weather as far as I'm concerned.
Tiel, the box is from the Hellraiser series (Pinhead?).
Where did you find a screensaver of it?
Bobbe, did you get the tapes?
Agreed. It's been too hot to much of anything besides whine about the heat. Makes you wonder how people riot, loot, pillage, etc in temperate climates. Maybe they have to charge up with a Sno-Cone.
Nice collage. Bonus points for Marvin always.
