There was a time where I was going to do it a year to the day of the original post but that came and went as well. And so I figured, why bother. what do I have to say on SG. Something new and exciting that I have not posted on Twitter or my facebook page?
Not really...things happen, done stuff, moved on...friends come and go or have kids...the usual.
I did ponder this though with a SG member. 2010 is a big year, hell May is a big Anniversary Year to me. I started thinking about this last year and when I heard about Celebration V, i was like YES!!! I need to celebrate, I even think I posted the thread in the SW group in January.
I wanted to...no, had to post this Today before Midnight which will now be misse
. For those who dont know me . I warn you now...THIS IS SOOO STAR WARS GEEK that you might as well not even read it...
Hell I'll even through in this shot, see...she's even wearing an Empire Tee
I collected every Empire figure, every item I could. Sadly I didnt keep them and really loathe the fact that I lost a vintage Empire Style A poster which I am hunting for now. I also want to get some vintage carded figures too. Had Star Wars Sheets, never had Empire...Will be getting an Empire LunchBox(as a child I couldnt have one by then). Did have the Darth Vader collector case. I received that from the nurses at my hospital when I came off the respirator...yes...yes...I breathed and still breathe like Vader. Hell when i go to my room its my meditation chamber. And his breathing is my ringtone on me phone.
R2D2 is the name of every laptop I owned. Hasn't failed me yet and has saved the day on quite an occasion.
The Geek in me has seen Star Wars up and down....I saw the damn Holiday Special which did introduce Fett and I do have it on dvd...somewhere... I see the resurgence and the celeb fan come latelys...and the introduction of better action figures and collectibles(I mean I can have my own WAMPA RUG or TAUNTAUN sleeping bag) Not too mention if I want toast, i can have Vader toast too. I quote Empire in my everyday life. I am getting an Empire Tattoo, sooner than later hopefully. And to some I am a lone nut by being excited all week. But its special to me...it helped shaped me into the warped individual I am today which is probably why I love Military and the bad guys so much too... Decepticons anyone? or Cobra?
So I Say Thank You The Maker(George Lucas) for giving us probably the best film in the saga. Actually No it is the BEST film in the Saga. Thank You to Irvin Kershner for directing it(hence no George Involvement and probably why its soo good). Thank you to my dad for taking a little kid to see it. And to the HardCore Star WARS FANS out THERE WHO CONTINUE to keep Star WARS in the PUBLIC EYE(Good and Bad) and who still buy the stuff that has that logo on it.
Thank You Yoda for your Words of Wisdom(Do or Do Not, there is No try) and of Course "Size Matters not."
And to the ones who've stuck around and read this...thank you. Its after May 21st and It took me way longer to write this than I wanted. But i wanted to share this.
Interesting Read
I've seen the Good...the bad...the ugly...
Met some good people I still keep in touch with...
Lost a lot of friends along the way...Made friendships that started and ended before a full year....Lost friendships that took years to grow and were destroyed with just mere words....
And Here I am now...thinking...WhaT DA HELL AM I STILL HERE FOR??????
I mean....is it the Girls and sets???? not really
I mean is it the Boards.....rarely if never go on them...
I mean is it the members....meh, i'm down to maybe a good 15 or 20 people i talk to regularly and cut that in half i talk to off of SG...
I mean the groups????....True I like my groups I manage, but hell I've left some groups because of the drama.
So Really...WHAT DA HELL am I STILL DOING HERE????
yeah...no....youtube clips or funny stories or anything...just....a Goodbye, So Long and Thanks for all the Fish.....
But its 2009....New Year and New Me Dammit or so help me!!!!!
Soooo here's some more Looney Tunes:
I always did like Marvin the Martian, he would've been my first tattoo years ago... I wonder could he take on Zim. I identify with Daffy myself....Big shock i know.
My Friends are going to Vegas tomorrow for the AVNs...every year I want to go and every year so far something comes up...friggin sucks.
Also I was re-watching Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back...I must admit its still funny. I'm curious to see that movie stoned..speaking of stoned....If you like to listen to things while smoking, I recommend the Smodcasts(Kevin Smiths and Scott Mosier's Podcasts) Its friggin hilarious...Kevin has done it while stoned and his train of thought is all over the place.
New Year and already drama drama drama....
First of all Happy belated New Years to you all...
How was it?
Me, I drank myself until i collapsed on my bed watching Diary of the Dead which is rather depressing and scary at midnight...The next day I stayed in with a hangover watching Looney Tunes all Day...I mean really i watched it from beginning to end....
Thank you all for your well wishes to me and my family. Its been a rough week for all of us....He will get Military Honors though...Edited to add, he may not get his military honors...his other family took care of it and we are officially not involved...Family Drama...Sucks so much.
Speaking of Death... We lost someone on SG the First day of the New Year... Societypliers is no longer with us. I must say it hurt the heart. He was a good guy and such a wealth of music knowledge. I can honestly say...he will be missed. His Obit has been posted on his Blog which in itself is weird seeing it updated frequently.
So for 2009 i'm truly thinking of biting the bullet and really shutting off the Emotions thing. I mean I mentioned to MDF last night I regretted meeting someone because now I care about her and her family and worry so much. Yet they never did or ever ask how i'm doing or check in on me...Actually that bugged me alot. People get so self involved in their life they dont see how your doing but you always ask bout them...Yeah I am bitching and complaining....GRRRRRRRR
I see my SGmates here in distress and depressed and it bothers me I can't help them that I can't do more. Sometimes i honestly don't know what to say and that's not good. I just hate seeing others in pain while the few i can't stand are happy and carefree...I don't know just my two cents...
One thing is for sure. I need Change. Big Change with Life and Everything...
In closing I leave you with one of my fave Bugs Bunny toons....
PS: I really need a new screen name so suggestions are welcome.
2008, finally coming to a close, alot has happened alot of pain from former friends. alot of death alot of misery.
On Monday December 29th 2008 at 10:50pm Joseph Murphy Peoples passed from this mortal coil. Most will not know who he is, to me....he was a friend, my first confidante, my babysitter, my hero, a bank, treasurer, debater, Encyclopedia, just a wealth of knowledge. A lover of Westerns and War Movies. He Loved the Duke and Clint.
He was also my Grandfather. The cancer finally metastasized and he was tired. He lived to be 88 years old. Saw alot. Saw the election of a Black President which he never thought he'd see. Saw one of his Grandchildren raise 4 good kids. Saw another get so engrossed in the weirdness that he thought I wasn't right in the head. But he knew i loved movies and taught me about photography.
The call came after midnight, actually the Police stopped by and told my Mom that the Hospital was trying to contact her. It was me who made the call and was told he was deceased. My mom was freaking out, i was on the phone with my brother and txting my friends. They told my mom the body would not be moved until the morning if we wanted to come and see him one last time. At first she didnt want to go but we did, 30minutes later we were in his room.
Death...is so final. I've seen it afterwards meaning in a funeral home, But he was still there. I walked in first. He looked like he was sleeping, like i've seen him hundreds of times. The IVs were gone and he looked peaceful. She came in shortly after. His body wasn't even completely cold yet. But he looked at peace.
The morbid person in me, well Death fascinates me even now. It is final. I was expecting him to wake up, heck, i thought I saw the eyes flutter or the sheet go up and down with his breathing but no. Nothing. It was here where it hit me, my grandfather is finally gone. I've been expecting it for years but now its final. I didn't get to see him before Christmas. I didn't say goodbye while he was around. I got teary but that passed. I was also waiting for that zombie moment to just come thankfully it didn't. I kissed his forehead, held his hand one last time and said goodbye.
He had a rough life, but he lived it. He loved. He drank, He smoked. He watched his Movies. He watched his porn. He was fascinated with Technology. Makes you think....live life to the fullest. Live in the now.Don't wish...Don't wonder...don't regret...
Farewell El Capitan....You Will be missed. I hope to do you Proud one Day. Say Hello to Grandma. I miss her so much and I miss you already.
For those who celebrate Hanakkuh. Happy Eight Days of Lights.
This is going to be just images...Too much on my plate that I really dont feel like getting into around this time of year.
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it.
HAPPY FESTIVUS!!!!
New Blog....
Geez, another Legend has left this mortal coil. I'm talking bout Bettie Page....now true her accomplishments have gone under my radar but if it wasn't for her, they'd be no Suicide Girls...
Year's almost over....Christmas, thankfully is almost over so I can really get rid of this Christmas Spirit.
My friend got a new car...Chrysler 300...So we went up to Woodbury Commons in Harriman NY for some christmas shopping(he did the shopping, i just went for the ride) and boy was it cold....They had victorian carolers up there. It was nice.... While there, I thought of my characters and how they would interact...I do that often, act out the scenarios in my head sometimes with dialogue to get a feel for it or to give me ideas. Writing is coming, my goal is to finish two outlines before the New Year....
I also went and saw the Day the Earth Stood Still...the original is so much better but it has its moments. I liked the fact that it took place in Jersey....Nothing like seeing the Trenton Train Station act as Newark Penn or for that matter seeing Giants Stadium decimated by Nanite Locusts. They showed the Wolverine trailer as well.
My friends turned me onto this burger joint called 5 guys burgers and fries. The fries are freshcut and boy were they GOOD OHHHH SO SO GOOD!!!! they over flow the cup and throw more in the bag, and you get the whole greasy bag feel too. It was yummy. but so so bad for you...
Friday went to the SGNJ Diner of the Month where I got to see khoos and mydogfarted little one. She's just a month old and so small. We then went to an Ice Rink but I guess a High School game just let out so it was wall to wall tweens....OMG...I felt like I was in a Hannah Montana/Jonas Brothers concert. Too much squealing for my audio sensors.
Sunday relaxed and watched tv and did laundry.
December 12th has come and gone some know about the Mayan Calendar and doomsday...its a scary thought if its true....some believe it...I have 4yrs to make my mark on the world or else...Gone....if its true but Its bad when your brother even says to you while your in your buddies car, your doing good, maybe some of that good fortune can rub off on him and turn him around... *yikes*
I also think its time that I move on, past my anger and hurt. My wanting revenge and just clear the conscious and soul...Cleanse...So I'm thinking of sending back a few items to someone and writing that final letter of why I feel the way I do. Months late sure....maybe its a bad idea...who knows...
Oh yeah i think starting next year, I'm turning off my friends requests and doing a major Order 66 and Purging my list...i dont speak to half of the list in there anyway...
