She blinded me with science!

Because whenever I don’t like the way things are going I quit.

Yellow under the African sun
Busy eyelashes
Tall neck like a
Chinese chopstick
Dancing with marrionette
Tail like a balancing libra

It's my brother's birthday.

2005-05-01T20:26:14Z

This journal has been rampant with dull and trite entries lately. As far as I know there is only one remedy for dull and trite - and that's modeling and dancing.

Sitting indeed, and doing what we usually do after school.

But then we started modeling.

This, of course, is the naughty elephant.

Love.

Boobs.

My personal favorite: conquering the beast or slaying the dragon.

We were slaying/conquering the beast/dragon with a chair...

...When the principal came in. He talked for a while...

...and I made this face while I listened.

After the beast was dead Megan decided it would be good to model again.

Reaching for the stars when they started to fall and I didn't know weather to be happy or afraid.

Cute.

She wants me.

Then we found this sign, and Megan was happy about it.

I felt a little differently.

And when you feel a little differntly the only thing to do is dance interpretively.

We dances first to The London Symphony Orchestra's rendition of Gandalf the Wizard.

I then danced to Lothlorien the Elven Woods.

I got ten points for creative use of props.

Dynamic poses.

The ceiling, unfortunately, suffered some injuries.

I didn't get any points for looking attractive while I danced, but I can't see why not.

More innovative prop use.

Imagine that I am floating in air.

Resurrection.

My dancing challenges your perspective.

What is this?!

The most amazing finishing pose the world has seen.

Then is was Megan's turn, she danced to Hobbits.

This is a Hobbit emerging.

This is a Hobbit praying or something.

Still emerging.

Those silly Hobbits shure do love their weed and their drink...

...And their video cameras.

Ribbon dancing was the highlight of Megan's performance.

Astounding what that girl can do with a ribbon.

Semi-authentic Hobbit jigging too!

After all that dancing we took a moment to reflect.

We remembered how all those years of exotic dancing made it super-easy for me to turn into a gorilla.

We remembered how sad the Gollum song was. But when we realized what we had just done...

Megan fell into a state of self-loathing and ripped her ears off...

...And I was utterly ashamed.

Don't discriminate.

On behalf of all us here at the Going household...please...

2005-04-27T22:32:59Z

Have a Sunchy Day!

Side effects...

2005-04-26T04:09:36Z

The recent hardship has destroyed her ability to articulate, but word choice is nothing short of impeccable.

A summary of the day: Fuck.

The Week In Breif.

2005-04-24T21:10:20Z

Grew Older - It was my birthday.
Became technologically mainstream - Got an ipod.
Celebrated Earthday - Walked to school.
Supported Dairy Farmers - Ate yogurt for at least one meal each day.
Envied Thespians - Saw Oklahoma three times.
Mastered the Beast - Rode my horse.
Communed with Nature - Spoke to a Raccoon.
Discovered uncharted Lands - A meadow behind The Walk.
Had an Adventure - Locked my Keys in the car.
Strapping Young Boys - Did their makeup and broke their hearts.

You heard it here...and multiple other places.

2005-04-19T03:11:15Z

A Preview.

2005-04-16T20:30:47Z

Keeeevvviiinnnn.

2005-04-02T20:19:12Z

All of these pictures are masterpieces.

2005-03-23T23:36:21Z

My new shoes, however, they don't go with my rippling, red calf muscles.

This is my cat, eating my camera strings.

For me, this picture just screams "St.Patricks Day".

Look at me, I'm sexy-mysterious alright.

Mis gatos...

...les gustas todos los fiestas!

I don't know, you tell me what they're doing.

I was almost killed for taking this picture. Apparently one of these car's owners has somthing to hide.

I visited my horse at like, nine at night, he was less than thrilled about it.

There was a barbecue at school...

...which I was too preoccupied to be really involved in.

Then I was cleaning out my closet.

Then we played dress-up.

This is me being a jock of all sports.

Nothing but net.

Apparently my camera supports those durn heat detection pictures as well.

I found out my cousin is going to be in the next Hooters calendar...

...I realized the genetic potential and started to practice for next year's edition.

Westside, naturally.

It's a new religion. Yes, I am insinuating that peeps are god.

2005-03-16T05:33:10Z

Creature Feature.

2005-03-10T08:08:59Z

And in tonight's program Kate will be playing the role of a fucking moron.

Does the part strech her acting abilities? I think not.

It comes naturally to her.

It was an out of body experience.

2005-03-09T02:23:23Z

It was like talking to myself, but not.

I'm really not this upset...swear.

2005-03-03T02:06:12Z

Poor Che.

2005-02-28T21:09:00Z

And just when you thought "conforming to rebellion" was an oxymoron.

Well, crap, its true.

2005-02-23T02:42:40Z

I changed the colors because they were ugly...uglier.

K	Kinky
A	Amorous
T	Twisted
E	Exhausting

Do it.

Ooh, capitan.

2005-02-21T04:53:51Z

Penny wise and dollar foolish.

2005-02-11T02:51:13Z

Today I went to the Renaissance Festival.

Today I paid money to fall off a ladder.

I became upset at this monetary waste and released the horrifying yelp of a suddenly poverty stricken female of teenage years and volatile nature.

Oh contraire - I AM your angel of music!

2005-02-07T23:55:36Z

I need to write a paper. It might be fun once I get started, but I'm less than motivated at this juncture. I don't have anything to say either, I just want something to do aside from homework? I have green tea and the Phantom of the Opera...Oh, heey, that's an idea...

- This picture was too ugly to continue to exist. It has been removed for public benefit. We apologize if you accessed these corrupt files before we could solve the problem, we will compensate for any losses with favors of a sexual nature. -

Success! Time wasted, green tea and damn sexy man involved. Yeah, that was definitely worth the thirty minutes it took.

No super sleuths needed here.

The cartoon grandpa was bad at hiding evidence, it was simple as that.

Nature Journal Diaries - Entry One: The Deneise

2005-01-24T01:24:29Z

Recently when on an excursion to the wilds of Fort Lauderdale I was encountered by a strange vermin. It couldn't speak, so I will never know its real name, but the beastie struck me as a Deneise and so I have classified the horrific creature as such. Locals say it's a cat, but I have my serious doubts. Locals also say that the poor creature had been hit by a car, suffers a thyroid problem, howls incessantly throughout the night, smells, had very few teeth and may be the walking dead. I personally can testify to the howling and the smell. I have classified the beast for you so that you may identify it in your travels throughout South Florida.

The Deneise is quite obviously a carnivore, you can see it in their eyes, they feast on homo spaiens sapiens whenever they can, and rocks when they cannot. Their howling is so painful that my tape player broke upon trying to record, but if you ever see me just ask and I will impersonate the noise as best I can. Somthing along the lines of "Baraow!" might cover it.

It is said that the Deneise may grow to incredible heights, the specimine I encountered was, thankfully, quite small and toothless; hence, unable to eat humans. Thankfully I was fortunate enough to live through the encounter and bring you these tales. My cameraman, however, was not so lucky, which is why we have no video of the elusive creature. My appologies.

We've burried my faithful cameraman in the Deneise Victim Cemmetary. It is a lovely place and I suggest you visit. I must go into mourning now, so please forgive the pending absence of entires. Rest in peace dear dead cameraman.

This is now the symbol for all that is good...show your mom!

2005-01-20T05:42:11Z

Obtuse statement of the hour: I hate people.

2005-01-18T22:38:00Z

Keep talking my freinds, one day you'll find out what you're saying.

Radioactive Rodents!

2005-01-14T02:39:56Z

We're lucky that my personal paparazzi were still awake when this insane new mammal specimen reared its ugly glowing head.
