Next comes a 'real' entry, which is to say that instead of a cohesive statement of what I think about a particular subject I'm now going to write some semirandom nonsense that'll describe my day.

So!

They want to replace Beazley. Yay - it seems like the Greens are the only party actually in opposition at the moment. They want to replace Beazley with Rudd. Boo. Yes, Rudd > Swan, but Rudd < Gillard. Gillard as leader? Would be much <3. This is the extent of my political commentary for the day.

On a vastly different note, I was walking through a shopping centre earlier, with some random plodding along behind me. His footsteps sounded a bit like this:
Clomp. *hisssss*. Clomp. *hisssss*. Clomp. *hissss*. Clomp. *hissssssss*.
I think it'd be somewhat fun to record his footsteps just in case they're ever useful for something steampunk.

Absolutely nothing to do with steampunk-sounding randoms, there's a new church sign out: it's supposed to be a text from God. A god who uses gratuitious abbreviations and can't spell.

Still, if nothing else their sign reminds me of Dead Poets' Society: in particular, the 'call from God' scene. And he really does call reverse charges - sometimes you get eaten by a fish, sometimes your family gets turned to salt, and sometimes he just burns down that one tree out in the desert. So you know that text's just there because suddenly God's got a plan... that gives some number of free messages each month.

Cheapskate Almighty, that one. The one that is called I HAVE A VOUCHER.

The last thing for this entry is a brief recap of my shopping list for today, which works out as:
  • Glucose syrup
  • Red food dye
  • Yellow food dye
  • Blue food dye
  • A small water pistol
  • A moderately-sizable glass bottle
  • A small soy bottle
  • A shotglass
  • A black ink cartridge
I was almost hoping someone would ask, so that I could - with perfect honesty - answer "Oh, it's just supplies to stage the aftermath of a zombie bloodbath."

And on that note - oooh, suspense - that'll be it for this entry.

If someone had come through my register with stuff like that when I was working in a supermarket, I'd assume they were part of the crew for The X Files.

IF that were the case, I imagine I'd have had a cocktail shaker too. :)

Alright, I have to ask.

"Why are you staging the aftermath of a zombie bloodbath?"

Because sometimes ImageGoogle doesn't quite do the job you want it to.

And rightly so.

And to what end do you need this bloodbath?

Partly my own amusement, partly that I wanted an image that I couldn't get from Google. Beyond that, you'll just have to wait and see.

A friend of mine was recently in a zombie shirt film. He was a zombie janitor.

He's also involved in a fanfilm Firefly spinoff.

What's with all the zombies?

What's wrong with zombies?

Depends... Are they viral zombies, parasite zombies, voudoun zombies, occult zombies, D&D zombies, or just people who haven't been to Starbucks yet in the morning?

JULIA GILLARD FOR TEH WIN!



Also, some older girls at my school did that in assembly once, and the call from God was to tell our Principal to let boys into our school. XD

INDEED! I, FOR ONE, WOULD HAPPILY VOTE 1 JULIA GILLARD, EXCEPT SHE'S NOT FROM MY ELECTORATE, SO I'D HAVE TO VOTE 1 FOR MY OWN LABOR CANDIDATE INSTEAD, JUST LIKE LAST TIME.

Um... that's happy shouting. *nods*
