New Year's Eve Day

I woke up to a message from my cousin Walsh, asking what my plans were for tonight?  Messaged back saying if I didn't end up babysitting, same old same old; a few movies and a pizza. What can I say, I have less and less of a life.  Which is why I haven't been in on this blog in weeks.  Nothing is going on. There has been no one to talk to.
Well, nothing new anyways.  Storm is back in town, bumped into him at the grocery last week. He hasn't changed at all.  Had a strange conversation with Tarot Lady earlier in the week about fairies. Yes, the kind with wings. I've said more then a few times, that I believe in a lot of things, but dude, there is just so many times you can hear the sentence "Tinkerbell isn't just a name of a cartoon, but the actual category of angels."  I ended up walking around for the rest of that day singing the line "Fairies wear boots and you've got to believe me."  from that old Black Sabbath song.

On to semi-reasonable things.  Caught last night's wrestling. And I have to say, Dimmer still needs a haircut. 

But, beyond that, I don't know who's a better actor, Mad Hatter, or Werewolf King?  Mad Hatter was his totally brilliant self on the show last night. Picking his teeth, scratching his fleas- which I noticed was indeed the right side of his body, he needs to be careful on that, remember not to scratch the right side on camera otherwise, you know people like my cousin Walsh will point it out to me and laugh like a lunatic for the next month- shaking like a kid who lost his ritalin... then you had Werewolf King, who went back and forth between laughing at Mad Hatter to this look of totally disapproving fed up babysitter. There were actual moments when I had to wonder if Werewolf King was actually feeling like a fed up babysitter at Mad Hatter's behaviour?  I thought Mad Hatter was going to start sucking his thumb at one point he was biting his nails so much.

I'm waiting for the day he comes to ringside with a dream catcher clipped to his hair... long story.

After Friday 13th

Sister was in a crap mood earlier. My brother in law is sick and acting like the world is coming to an end. We were at mom's for a very rare night where we had dinner together. That happens maybe once every four years.
My cousin Walsh dropped Mavis off for babysitting.  She saw me hunched over a notepad writing.  "What you writing?"

Me-:"Fairy Tale."

Mavis-:"What's it about? Can I read it?"

Me-:"These are just notes for the real story which I've been writing on the blog."

Mavis-:"Can I read the story on the blog?"

Me-:"It's not for kids."

Mavis-:"But you just said it's a fairy tale. How can it not be for kids if it's a fairy tale?"

Me-:"It's a fairy tale for grown ups."

Mavis-:"What's it about?"

Me-:"Alice in Wonderland meets the Big Bad Wolf."

Mavis-:"Oh. I want that." she was pointing to a commercial on tv. "What do you want for christmas?"

Me-:"For the readers of my fairy tale to comment on my blog and to be married happily ever after for real."

Mavis started laughing like it was the funniest thing on the planet, then flopped back on the sofa as if she'd worked pulling a mountain, her hand over her forehead dramatically.

Walsh-:"Yeah, I don't understand why no one's commented on that yet? I mean, they are reading it right?" he was still fighting his winter boots the one shoelace having a knot in it.

Me-:"Yeah, if you mean the wrestlers. Pretty sure of it. Steady hits on the fairy tale same amount every time I post, so guess so."

Mavis-:"Why aren't you married? And why don't you have kids? Someone I could play with."

Me-:"I ask myself that every day."

Mavis-:"You ask yourself what every day? Why I don't have anyone to play with when I'm here?" she was standing up at that point her hands on head, starting to jump up and down."

Me-:"If that's what you want to hear sure."

Walsh-:"Don't get her started."

Me-:"I'm not doing anything."

Walsh-:"I was talking to Mavis. I really don't feel like seeing you cry right now."

Wow!

Got a message from my cousin Walsh few minutes ago.  "You watching wrestling tonight?"

Me-:"Yeah. Think my eyes fell out and rolled onto the floor."

Walsh-:"Hahahaha! Thought you might be drooling."  referring to the Pack having come out in suits.

Me-:"Wow. I want one of those."

Walsh-:"One what?"

Me-:"A guy that hot. Get me one for xmas."

Walsh-:"Hahahaha! They have Mad Hatter action figures at the store."

Me-:"voodoo dolls!"

I was in the middle of typing this when he messaged me again.  "Suits. You know what that means for your boys right?"

Me-:"No, what?"

Walsh-:"Crappy storylines that you're going to hate."

I didn't answer him back on that one cause he's right. I hate when he's right.

Dec 3rd 2013

Caught up with last night's wrestling, there Mr. Scratchy, Herman.  It was decent enough.   Liked the promo the Pack had, I miss seeing those. Shame they stopped posting them on the website...but anyways...

Dimmer needs a haircut. There I said it.  Rebel without a Cause needs to chop down that beard too, he's the only Pack member that is starting to look...like well something out of the fairy tale I'm writing.

My cousin Walsh dropped in for a few minutes earlier, dropped off a dvd he'd borrowed while back. Asked me if I had seen the turkey skits. No idea what he was talking about at first, then he pulled up the website and showed me.

Walsh-:"It's under the Pack heading when you search for them on the site. No idea why?"

We watched the first segment, and I pointed at the computer with my coffee cup, luckily it was nearly empty this time.

Me-:"Most likely because that's Mad Hatter." 

Walsh-:"What? In the turkey suit?"

Me-:"Who knows? The voice box thingie. That's Mad Hatter."

He looked at me like I had just told him he'd be turning into a tree at midnight. "And what makes you think that?"

Me-:"Listen to it."  I made him rewind and listen again, then told him to go to the promo from last March and to listen to it. "Tell me you didn't catch that?"

Walsh-:"The voice could be anyone, what makes you so sure...okay yeah maybe."

Me-:"That promo from March, it's the promo that got me hooked on Mad Hatter. The one that inspired me to write the novel and the fairy tale, and the whole reason I started to crush on him. I think I've watched it like ten times now."

Walsh-:"Now you've just taken all the cool out of it for me. Now every time I see the Mad Hatter, he'll be some goof."

Me-:"Join the club. If you hadn't of shown me that old youtube of his from his indie days, I'd never have seen him in that light either. So blame yourself there bud."
