Six Feet Under

I am a little obsessed with death.

So, would I want to know when and how I would die? Hell yes I would! I think it would fuel my need to see the world a bit, and push my relationships with people. I might not take people for granted as much as I do. Frankly, I've been called an ice queen (the inspiration for last year's Halloween costume), so maybe my impending death would help remedy things. Of course, it could also fuel some new phobias or compulsions. Like what if you died from some disease you caught because you didn't wash your hands? I'd probably wash my hands 'til the skin came off.

And speaking of diseases, this might be old news to most of you, but I think this stuff is too cool. I'm buying this one and this one, and giving them to my friend Chad for his birthday, just so I can say I gave him syphilis and gon0hrrea.

Sorry about this post being late. I was going to do it last night, but I was really sick (still am, hence me being home right now writing this), and it was all I could do just to make myself stay awake long enough to watch Pushing Daisies. Hmm...which is perfect for this topic. Has anyone else seen this show? It's cute - quirky and weird. It's about a guy who can bring dead people back to life with a touch and put them back under (permanently) with another. However, he has to put them under within a minute of bringing them back, or someone else nearby dies.

Hmm...this one tending towards stream of consciousness. I guess that's what you end up with when I'm not feeling up to par.

A friend of mine caught giardia (AKA "beaver fever") from the water supply of the shitty northern Canadian town where we live on account of the runoff from the chicken slaughterhouse that the town dumps into the river. I never figured the parasite itself would be so cute.
