Procrastinating
I don't want to write about anything serious this morning, so here's a little clue-in to my thought processes:
- I was looking at the costume I made for this skit tomorrow and was thinking of how much I like costuming.
- Next I thought of how I would design clothes for my paper dolls as a child, sometimes copying from pictures in magazines and doll catalogues.
- I am really glad that my parents never bought me an American Girl Doll (much as I sighed for one at the time) because it would surely have gotten broken or something.
- A lot of my dolls had things happen to them. I would cut their hair and dress them in weird things (like rubber bands) and bits of their bodies would come off. Or they would get glue on them.
- I had Aladdin and Jasmine barbie dolls once. Aladdin's head wasn't manufactured very well, so it would keep coming off. I would try to take Jasmine's head off so that they would match.
- I'm really glad (and other people probably are, too) that I'm not queen of a country somewhere. "Off with his head! Wait, he was married? Bring his wife! Aw, they'll look so cute..."
- In the Mikado, if a married man is beheaded, his wife must be buried alive.
- I really really really don't want to be buried alive.
- Neither did the Victorians.
- I learned that from Michael Crichton. His book "State of Fear" isn't nearly as good as most of his others.
- I'm not a very good writer.
- I need to write more in order to become better.
- Dude! I'm sitting at my computer typing. Maybe I should write a story.
- Maybe later.

I thought this was fitting:

Very fitting indeed.
Writing My Novel vs. Playing Escape From Monkey Island
Let me think...
Now you've got me thinking about how the female praying mantis bites the head off her mate during sex.
Which gets me thinking about What's Eating Gilbert Grape, which gets me thinking about Johnny Depp...mmm...
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Okay, we can stay here for awhile :)
If what he says is true - 'tis death to marry you! :) *heehee* Haven't listened to the Mikado for awhile - I should stick it in for the ride home.
