Dear Sir:

I notice that you have “WWJD,” or “What Would Jesus Do” emblazoned in very large font across your back.

Due to the vast span of time between Jesus and ourselves, as well as the corruption in his recorded words and deeds, it is hard to say exactly what Jesus would do, although we can hazard a pretty good guess.

I can say with some certainty, however, that Jesus would probably NOT whip his dick out and urinate in public.

Just a hunch.

I finished all my gift wrapping last night, I have not made the holiday cookies yet, so maybe that will be this weekend. Tomorrow I head to my moms to spend it with her, my step-dad, my brother and his family and I cannot wait! I’ll spend the night there, unless I really miss the cats and then head to my Aunt Rita’s on Christmas day unless the weather is really bad, since my car is not in the best shape. Addy and I have made plans to do a movie later that night and I’m thinking about Sherlock Holmes, because I REALLY want to see it. At some point over the weekend Solon and I will do lunch/dinner and maybe some video games. Sunday morning is breakfast with Karrin. Not the original plans I had, but it will still be a good weekend.

Last night the_matras  and I talked. He confirmed everything loopygirl and I had told the other and then later she I confirmed things. We wanted to make sure the lies had stopped.
 
I do feel like I finally have the truth and see the entire picture. I know the last of my anger is leaving me, but the hurt will be there for a while. I told the_matras that outside of things with my car or game if he wanted a friendship it was all on him and that he needed to make amends in a serious way for us to ever have a friendship again, since there was no way outside of divine intervention I would ever take him back after being played the fool for over year. He said he would, but I’ll believe it when he does some of those things and not before then.
 
I know that this situation has placed a few people in more than a precarious position and I am sorry for that. I hope now that the truth has come out your lives can return to their normal bat channel. I know some of you may also have questions and be worried. You're not prying, you may ask, please don't be afraid to if you are worried.
 
When loopygirl and I talked last night, one of the things said was that the past is just that, the past and that we need to be able to take away lessons learned, both good and bad. I think one of the most important lessons I will be taking away is that you need to cut out the middle men.

Pics from an impromptu snowball fight in Times Square last Saturday @ 1am.

I might be interested in one for the New Year. If anyone still has one please let me know.

Thanks.

A few nights ago I looked at my side table and realized that it was kinda a nice microcosm of my life:



First, there's a pile of books on the left that's about a foot high. Then, on the table, we have...



Stingray Sam is the latest movie by The Billy Nayer show / Cory McAbee, the geniuses behind The American Astronaut. YOU MUST FIND IT AND WATCH IT. You will not regret it. And HERE ARE THE FIRST TWO OF SIX EPISODES AVAILABLE FOR FREE STREAMING / DOWNLOADING.



A plastic Green Lantern ring. I've been buying these little 99 cent gems (from every color of the Lantern Spectrum) and giving them out to friends.



My father taught me that you should always have on you something that can make fire. I've found that the more patriotic the lighter, the less likely it is to be stolen. Don't ask me...



A vinyl, stylized King Ghidorah toy that arrived from eBay that day. SHUT UP KING GHIDORAH IS THE BEST DAIKAIJU.



The Screaming Head of Elian Gonzalez was cut from a magazine many years ago and is taped to the chest of visitors to our home that do things like make a groan-worthy grandpa joke or perhaps commit a hilarious party foul. When he cannot be found, Iron McDowell is available to glaring, pointing, and shaming.



Finally, I found for 15 dollars, via my strange eBay searches, a mis-labeled relic of Saint John Neumann. I haven't busted out the microscope yet to see if I can tell if it's fabric or something else. It isn't bone or it would say OSS. at the start of his name. My brother Jason says that the B. at the start of his name (hidden in this shot) means this was from before he was beatified.

So yeah. That's me, kids.

Show me a shot of something that defines YOU.

Love,

b

PS -

Last night Alex and I baked gingerbread people and monsters...



And here are the cookies!!!!

 I talked with the_matras  today and with loopygirl and I don't think I could have really cleaned the wounds with out her. Did I get answers, yes. Were they the ones I wanted, no, but you never get the answers you want when your real life becomes a horrid soap opera. It's late and I'm tired, I might write more later when I get sleep.

Cross stitch for the cross stitch god. Phase two of the chaos project is complete.

The Khorne symbol.

I despise organizing things through text message.

...who is doing really good modern - and by modern I mean non-period - crime books, these days? I mean, aside from Vachss and Lehane and Brubaker. And I'm thinking more prose, not graphic novels.

Also, for those with writer-fu:

If a protagonist is nameless in an almost supernaturally bleak noir book, does it automatically read like a Derek Raymond ripoff?
