The Stage

Alas, a post!

Oh, dear blog, how long has it been since I've seen your boxular interface, smiling at me, pressing me to use you like the typing tool that you are...It's been too long.

So if anyone is still out there, wondering if I'd ever awake from my bloggie coma, then I wave very frantically and urge you to come over here, where I will tell you about all the many exciting things that happened while I was in a very deep sleep.

Although please bear with me, for I have but fifteen minutes, because I work soon. Because someone got fired and I've been working full-time hours.

Suddenly I have stage fright. I stare out at my faithful audience and my eyes widen in terror - what do I say? What should I do? Should I dance, or perhaps make up some bullshit? [Banana hammock!]

Allysia lets out an aggravated battle cry, and exits stage left. Exasperated, she grabs her hair with hands that want to punch something and does some quick thinking. How much do they know? How much SHOULD they know? And how do I say it when I know what they might or might not know or want to know?

She does a quick costume change [flamenco costume with a really fucken huge red hat] and re-appears on stage. The audience appears shocked that she came back - she's full of surprises. She begins to tap a slow, smooth rhythm with her shiny black shoe, and then cool jazz hues light the stage, controlled by a ghost of a light operator. Then she begins to sing...

The other day I quit smoking,
And this time I'm not joking.
There will be no more poisoned lungs for me.

I'm working all the time,
Where people commit crimes,
Like the lady who stuffed clothes down her pants.

She was caught,
So very distraught.
The man who regularly browses the toy isle saved the day.
She was caught,
And now she cannot
Rip off tags and find other ways to not pay...

I started playing Final 10
The experience is very zen
I like Wakka, his accent is greater than any I've heard.

But sigh and alas, it's time to go!
Places to be, both to and fro!
Mad adventures in the mild blowing snow!
Oh, wow!
[All this enthusiasm is no more than a show.]
