Scene one "RED"

Since you all were so nice to vote and pick a winning start to "RED". I'm posting it right now! There will be another poll up soon so you can vote for scene 2! I'm not sure how many scenes there will be but we'll see when we get down that road. Hope you enjoy, excuse the grammar..



“BANZAI!” Giggled Red as she twirled her beloved stuffed toy.

His nose is worn, some of his threads are torn, and a slight stain on his paw from that amazing pirate party they had last summer. He has always been with her from day one. Her beloved wolf plushy, with whom she bestowed the name Pin.

“RED!!” screamed her frantic grandmother, “RED COME SEE THIS!”

Needles, Red’s granny, was still young at heart and mind. She had decorated the entire living room in faerie lights, glitter filled crinoline, and paper flowers. Not one inch was left untouched by her imagination. Satisfied with her self she smiled a triumphant grin that would make most serious guardians shiver with worry.

“Red, my little prodigy, lets have a picnic inside today” declared Needles

Red was having a giggle fit with all the lights and colors assaulting her eyes. She nodded and jumped in agreement while rushing to the kitchen. She grabbed a bowl bigger than her head and Pin’s combined. Thinking very hard and seriously on the matter, she started looking for the perfect foods to eat for their faerie tale themed picnic.

“ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” she gasped when she opened the fridge

Dozens of different neon frosting covered cupcakes lined the first two shelves. Colors that would defy logic sat before her. She grabbed a tray and sat them near her bowl that still sat empty. Thinking on her feet she twirled towards the pantry for more goodies of the sweet kind.

“oooooh” she sang while her eyes searched

If it was sugary or chocolaty she grabbed in and crammed it into her bowl. Proud of the most certain sugar high they would get she started scooting the bowl to the living room. Needles gracefully stepped over her and headed towards the kitchen. She quickly mixed up some chocolate milk. While just finishing the chocolate masterpieces of liquid goodness… Axe walked in.

I think you are missing something?

recently my dad purchased a bag of potatoes, which is definitely not out of the norm for us. I reached in the other day to get a few spuds when I noticed what was on the bag. It was Toy Story! Then I noticed they where missing something. There was no potato-head! How can you have a toy story themed potato bag and not have potato head on it? I was baffled at what surely was a mistake. right?

What do you think? Should potato-head be on the bag or would that be kind of weird?

Tune Tuesday

I have been in high spirits this week or at least constantly trying to surround myself with good vibrations that I’m viewing this week as good! I was laying about when this song popped up on an indie radio station online. I screamed, “Jodi what’s that band?.” That’s when Tune Tuesday’s band was chosen. Yeah I bet you thought the picking process was more glamorous, nope not really. Sometimes it’s merely coincidence or what ever I happen to like that week. The band chosen is “Vampire Weekend” and their song “Cousins”. It’s a happy song and it makes me smile. The band originated in New York after they graduated from college. They did it as a side gig but it eventually grew into a full fledge band. You can go here to check out tour dates but hurry because they are selling out fast.



Lyrics...
You found a sweater on the ocean floor.
They're gonna find it if you didn't close the door.
You and the smart one sit outside of their sight,
In a house on a street they wouldn't park on at night.

Dad was a risk taker, his was a shoe maker,
You, greatest hits 2006 little list maker.

Heard codes in the melodies, you heeded the call,
You were born with ten fingers, and you're gonna use em all.

Interest in colors I discovered myself.
If your art-life is gritty, you'll be toastin' my health.
If an interest in culture, you should be lining the walls,
When your birthright is interest, you could just accrue it all.

Me and my cousins, and you and your cousins,
It's a line thats always running.

Me and my cousins and you and your cousins,
I can feel it coming.

You can turn your back on the bitter world.
You can turn your back on the bitter world.
You can turn your back on the bitter world.
You can turn your back on the bitter world.

Me and my cousins, and you and your cousins,
It's a line thats always running.

Me and my cousins and you and your cousins,
I can feel it coming.

SHUT YOUR FACE

I am one of those people who hold in their bad feelings but on the down side I tend to hold on to them for a long time. So I need to let how I feel out. The other day was Jodi and I's 7th anniversary. We stopped by Wal-mart to get some drinks, while maneuvering to the back (there were a lot of people surrounding us and they are renovating the store) I grabbed his hand to lead the way through. This man comes up to us and puts a hand on Jodi's arm. He says "You two look good together."

I thought OMG IT'S OUR ANNIVERSARY AND HE JUST SAID THAT. SQUEALS!!! but no...he kept talking. He proceeded with "you're pulling him through the store, making him carry everything (he was only carrying one bottle of mountain dew), eventually she'll make you carry the purse (I don't carry one) and then have to dress to match the purse....

I'm standing there in disbelief because HOW dare he randomly stop me in a food store and try to analyse who I am and what kind of relationship i have? No dude should have left it with "you look good together"... after that he just needed to shut his face.

P.s. PLEASE VOTE!! If you haven't I have three votes right now and each are for every option so if anything I just need one more vote!!! HURRY!!

I loved FLCL when Adult Swim started showing it late at night. It almost seemed like there wasn't a plot to it at all. It was completely crazy but in the end it came together, sort of. I was watching videos on youtube and came across this video. Instant favorite!!
