(14 jams | scat solo)

Time:8:47 pm.
Mood: devious.
Music:Destiny's Child - Bills, Bills, Bills.
When I get my paycheque, the first things I want to buy are inks, watercolours, and pastels (both soft and grease), with huge pieces of paper to use them on.

I want to paint/draw portraits of my more interesting friends and acquaintances during their odd moods, draw them out by drawing them out, learn their secrets by finding a colour for the mystery behind their eyes.

What feather do their wings have? How far does the crackle of their aura reach? And how have I mostly neglected this long-simmering project until now?

What I like best about people is their expressions. What I like best about art is expressing people.

It would be cool if LJ had a feature where, much like tags, you could click on a song you've posted as your "current music" and have it bring up all the entries you made while listening to that song.

If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, please post a comment with a COMPLETELY MADE UP AND FICTIONAL memory of you and me. It can be anything you want—good or bad—BUT IT HAS TO BE FAKE.

When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people DON'T ACTUALLY remember about you.

Every Canadian on my friends list should read these, especially if you are old enough to vote.

The first provides a list of your candidates with links to their sites:

http://www.nodice.ca/election2004/ridings-alberta-2.html

and the second gives the platforms of main federal parties (Liberal, Conservative, NDP and Bloc Quebecois):

http://www.cbc.ca/canadavotes/thecampaign/index.html

(link to "Leaders and Issues" under heading "Campaign Overview". You can view each party's stance on the issues you want to know about under the tabs on the left.)

Many of us are in the St. Albert - North Edmonton riding. Those local candidates will be answering pre-determined questions on Tuesday, June 22 at St. Albert Inn. It will be 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., and although there will be no floor questions allowed, there will supposedly be opportunity to talk personally with candidates after the meeting and during breaks. The event is being hosted by the St. Albert Chamber of Commerce, and any questions about the event can be answered by calling 458-2833 or visiting http://www.stalbertchamber.com/contact.htm

(4 jams | scat solo)

Subject:I trimmed.
Time:2:24 pm.
I just took off people whose posts I often skim and/or who never comment on my posts, so therefore we don't really seem to care about each others' journals.

Don't mistake that for me not caring about you in general. I still love you.

One of my best qualities is the ability to find humour in nearly any situation.

One of my worst qualities is procrastination.

(6 jams | scat solo)

Subject:WAY TOO GREAT TO MISS
Time:1:06 pm.
Mood: impressed.
Tink
You are Tinkerbell, WORST of all of the villanous
Disney women. I kid you not. Let's just look at
the facts.

Tinkerbell begins her part in the story by trying
to kill Wendy by dropping her from several
hundred feet in the air onto some sharp, nasty
rocks. When this fails, she attempts to get the
Lost Boys to /shoot/ Wendy, telling them that
she's a bird they can roast and eat.

Later on, she betrays her ten year old fantasy
lover Peter Pan and all his friends for playing
house with Wendy, nearly getting all of them
killed by way of first, a bomb, second,
drowning, and third, by the sword.

Despite all this, she is still one of the most
beloved characters for her cherubic face, body
a la madonna, and glitzy glam, being allowed to
open most disney shows and movies for many,
many years, and also getting to close them too.

Based on this, we find it likely that you are a
notorious social climber. A real backstabber
who always gets their way, and knows how to use
good looks as a weapon, you bitch.
