Alien Sex
I've drank and drank, gone through drunk to sober (a few times), and now have eaten perhaps everything in sight. S.O.B! Arby's, diet soda, and cake ... it's making my system be all sorts of WTF!?
I also look like a trailor park whore, makeup everywhere where makeup shouldn't be.
Man, what fun.

Yes! Some OTHER BLOGGERS are STILL up and are JUST as tortured as we are! heh-heh-heh
I need some damned coffee - but it's a bit late for that now...
I am so exhausted - I thought the further South, the warmer the climate????
I am a few states away and I am freezing my ass off... I had to go put SOCKS on and borrow a hoodie!!! It's JULY! What's up with that?
I sweat nightly in Massachusetts, and this will be the second night I was bone ass cold in PA...
Scary - must be all the 'green'...lol
I will be sleeping most of today I am sure...probably well into the late afternoon.
but this was worth it.
Won't be too many more years I will be doing this I tell ya! -

Born in Lust, Turn to Dust
I love light houses. The New England Coastal area has always been so attractive to me. Anything with a light house on it, I must own.
That reminds me of one of my favorite movies, Stephen Kings STORM OF THE CENTURY. I have watched it at least twice and it continues to amuse me. You don't really know if the "bad guy" is really bad or good. I say he's good and it shows how these little piss ass towns are killed with little secrets and bad habits.
Born in sin ... come on in!

This has nothing to do with this post - but I am freezing my ass off...
4 more posts...Just FOUR... It's as comforting as it is maddening... I have no idea what to say at this point.
I have chosen to talk about pets, and how the personality and likes of their owners are reflected in not only their choice of pet - but how they name them...
I am a 'darker' type of person. I am also very sweet (most of the time) and I care greatly for the 'underdog'. If there is a litter of animals, I will ALWAYS pick either the runt, or the black one... That's just me. I will either name it something completely ridiculous/funny or something Occultish and Evil.
My pet of choice is the cat.
I have had many cats and two of my favorites are both runts and named silly. One is a black and white cat named 'tard - because she is both runty and not very agile...
My other cat is 'hella' because she was short AND the runt and reminded me of Cartman from South Park - but is a girl... Everyone else thought she was 'hella ugly'
so I called her that. Most of my other pets had Occult names; and most of them were cats as well; Crowley, Acacia, Bela, Orin, Aleister, Banshee, Gypsy, and Wassail - another cute name... Wassail then had a kitten we kept who we named Von Straussel...
Why? cause it was hilarious...lol Can you see your preferences and personality in your pets names??? I would love to hear them, myself - as it would relly tell me quite a bit about YOU...

Brick House
It gets to this time and I ponder who is still watching. It's funny because we are here in the early morning and everybody is sleeping. Then we are here into the late night and everybody is sleeping yet again. The only time anyone is watching is during the day and that seems to be up the in the air too.
We made (and continue to make with your help) a lot of money for a fabulous cause. It is wonderful all of those who are still watching. We love you all. It is tragic though how many people don't pay any attention and who don't give a shit. To those people a big *you suck* goes out to them.
I can't seem to get Michelle Branche's "Little Bit of Love" out of my head. The thing is I didn't even hear it today/tonight. That's when that sort of thing bugs me big time.
Autism is a very important deal. I hope you pledged and if you haven't, you have several more hours left to do so. We aren't done yet! :oD

How Autistics view the world....
This may sound strange to 'normal' people....
Autistics live like they are on one big psychadelic trip.
I have read so many books BY autistics, about Autistics, etc..and they ALL have common factors...
Sounds can appear as visual colors....Colors can be perceived as feelings, movement/touch can be perceived as sounds...it's as if their internal wiring is misconnected and the impulses sent go to the inappropriate receptors and it's all mixed up...
It is a very scary and confusing experience to be Autistic. Sometimes all the outside stimuli is so great that they just have to shut their brains down...and not see or hear or feel, and just rock for a while...to attain balance.
My little one rocks whenever any new change happens. I know it is anxiety related, but I am powerless to soothe him, because my physical comfort can be perceived as painful and my words can be felt as anything else... color, emotion, visual..I have no idea.. I just try to read him as best as I can - and make sure he satys happy, smiling and content.
It takes a lot of observation and mind reading...but after 5 years, it is rather easy to see what bothers him... as a parent you 'just know'.
So, here I am AGAIN - taking a few minutes to ask that you make a small pledge to help find out WHAT, in UTERO, causes this problem in brain wiring to manifest...
There are so many theories, but very few scientific studies... The blogathon for the ASA this year is to help fund those studies...to help educate people about probable causes and characteristics of Autism.
I ask that you PLEASE pledge what you can - even a few cents to Project Blog for D and Necroraven c/o THIS SITE... all your pledges will go directly to the Autism Society of America.
I am tired, but I am hanging in... because my baby needs this...and so do thousands of other parents, and their Autistic children.
Peace

Your Cosmic Future Depends on It
We can't forget it's a very important year to VOTE. Our future depends on it. I truly think we are headed for destruction with the current office. Like the world may be even in danger.
No matter what they tell you, you really should vote. Give it a shot. Maybe we can make a different this year.

Rammstein
I haven't heard about Rammstein for ages. I remember when I was like a kid and I saw their video on MTV and it freaked me right out. Like ... they are scary MOFOs.
I am looking at a CD of theirs now and like they are still scary MOFOs. Though the music itself is not really that scary anymore. Of course ... I'm not 8 anymore.
In other news, my lips feel rather cemented with Necro's lipstick. It's good shit though, it's not coming off. That's what I need!
She's picking her nose. Yeah, that's pretty much it! :oD

I am running out o things to say....
I just sat in my car for 15-20 mins attempting to charge my cell phone - which died and I did not even think to bring the regular charger.... :(
For some reason I thought the one charge would last 4 days... tells you how often I get out... lol
Let's put it this way - during the past 4 years, I have gone to TWO places out of my home town to meet people off line...and this is ONE of those two. SAD, eh?
I have actually met 4 people - but two were kind enough to come to my house... LOL
I am reallt NOT as free-willed or vain as people think. I am rather insecure and asocial.
I am amazed I am even this many states away from home... so bear with me - this is really an anxious time for me...and sometimes bitchiness covers for fear...
There's some truth... Tha's all you get for the next hour... :-P

7/24/2004
Topics we decided should never be discussed during a charity blogathon.....
The following topics are NOT condoned by the bloggers at this site - they are only mentioned due to lengthy discussions about the most politically incorrect subjects available to us...
1) - Jews and their yarmulkes.
2) - The up-sides of Adolf Hitler.
3) - The sensuality of rape.
4) - When Pop persona's take on stupid names
5) - The bad make-up techniques of standard 'Drag Queens'.
6) - Thankless bastards who ask you to do or make something but then they don't buy it or participate in it.
7) - The belief that Michael Jackson is at all innocent... LMFAO!!!!
8) - The remaining minorities, including white people, who we haven't spoken badly about.
9) - Anyone who has spoken badly about us or misunderstands where we are coming from. We save you out of kindness.

I have been here since yesterday afternoon..
and I have not seen d's room fully. I know it is mint colored - I have issues with mint... my parent's house was mint all my growing up life.. Mint is, as Rick from my para group says, PURE EVIL! You know - I am drinking Jack Daniels...A lot of Jack daniels..
It tastes good. It has been a while since I have had J.D. - I know I won't kill D while drunk...on whiskey.. which to most men I have ever cared for is SUDDEN CERTAIN DEATH.
Be forewarned.... 1 man I care for and one man who is iffy - and D...he's in the category all his own..... LOL - if you know him... YOU KNOW!

Reinvention
Madonna ... or Esther ... is currently touring on her Reinvention tour. If you've been living under a rock the tour is all her OLD music re-mastered. So you're paying very high prices for some way old shit (kind of like if Necro was a whore).
I'm not sure how I feel about this (Madonna, not Necro) but Madonna certainly has done well for redoing all her old songs. Not to mention her merchandise like the tshirts are $50 a piece. I don't know about that, man.
We'll be back with ... like pictures ... of ourselves ... not Madonna.

Career Choices...
My last job was as a manager in human services. I ran a home for the developmentally disabled - for all the people not hip on the new politically correct terminology - that means mentally retarded. I worked for salary. That means that even though I made $14 an hour - I did not get extra cash for holidays, or when I worked 15 hr days for 10 days or more straight...and I neglected my own family for the sake of a few d.d. people who basically had none. - I thought it was noble - but my father reminded me before he died that 'charity begins at home' - and I felt guilty.
So, the second I had enough money to live well for a year AND still be home with my now almost grown kids and my Autistic baby who was as attached to his daddy like any toddler would 'normaly' be to his mother (due to role reversal) - I jumped at it.
I MAY seem crass and independant - but my family means the most to me.
The whole point of this was - I resigned in Jan 2004 to spend time with my family...but money doesn't last forever. but I will never deprive my family of myself again. It's just not me.. I am relly a mommy more so than I am 'Necroraven'.
More to come about my next career decision...

I love the 90's
You know they are all up with this I LOVE THE 90's and all that on VH-1 lately. Watching it made me realize that I really didn't love the 90's. Not at all!
Especially that plaid wearing Cobain era. It was all so Guns & Roses knock off. Please.
We're still taking pictures. I think.

PVC Lovely
I am squeezed (happily) into plenty o' PVC. The wig is about to go on and as soon as that happens I am out of here (until we take enough pics). That shit is HOT.
Have you ever wondered about drag racing? Not drag queens racing, but the cars racing. It's so noisy. I don't get it. Just like football. Anything noisy that makes crowds of hicks yell for no particular reason.
Drink up! :oD

All trussed up and ready to go....
So, during the last break, I got all sleazed out with D's help. You ever see those old movies where they are corsetting those poor girls, by yanking really hard on their corset strings to get a nice tight fit??? Well - that was D and I a few mins ago... I am now in a corset, black lace pleated mini skirt and lycra thigh high 7" boots.. I can't walk - I feel like a newborn fawn... after pics these bastards are coming right off...Momentary vanity is what I am all about - then I want COMFINESS...
The drinking has begun! Send pics of yourself nude or in underwear to: ME! heh-heh j/k - OR AM I??????!!!!!! LOL
If you aren't gonna pledge - and I'd rather you DID THAT...then you can at least gimme something to do in the meantime between blog entries... :-P
This will only get worse as I drink.. I warn you now!

Dragging Them By
I wanted to talk about being a drag queen, but then I realized I already did that in this essay ... Not a Drag Queen. So you know ... go read that instead.
The only thing I really have to add to that is the phrase "in drag." Being that I'm not a drag queen, I do not dress IN DRAG. It's equally as unflattering.
For me we say "like a woman" or "as a woman" ... drag is ... well drag.

Old Asylums
I have a love of old architecture - especially asylums, institutions and colleges.
One of the prettiest local places as such in Massachusetts is the old Northampton State Hospital.
If you like he same type of creepy desolate buildings as I do YOU SHOULD take the Virtual Abandoned Hospital Tour.
I loved it - it has that awesome lonely visage...

Blogging Bastards
We're at $460 now!!! There's a new cam pic posted too, you better all watch out! This party has just begun. ;o)
I forgot to mention about Arby's Grilled Chicken Sandwhiches. Does anyone remember those? They were not breaded, they were just plain grilled and they were so good with the Horsey and Arby sauces smothering them. Omg, they discontinued these things about twelve years ago and I've been bitter about it ever since. They replaced it with something else chickeny, but it never could live up to the original.
My grandmother was a real connoisseur of fast food restaurants. Back in the day, every Friday afternoon she'd go get her hair did and then we'd go out for lunch. That was her favorite day and one of the reasons I still enjoy Friday just for the helluvit. She taught me a lot about shopping, hair dressers and fast food places.
Her favorite food was Chinese but Arby's was like a big deal to her too. She loved the roast beef sandwhiches.
So here's a shout out to my granny who is getting jiggy with it in heaven right now. I hope they do their roast beef up there as good as they do it down here.

Pursuit of proof for life after death
I am a Paranormal Investigator...Yes, a Ghost Hunter. Some people may laugh at this, and oh yes - I have been laughed at for it A LOT. But it is a passion of mine that I have held dear for most of my life.
I belong to an investigative Team in Massachusetts - a group of people that I feel so comfortable with that it is as if I have known them all forever...and YES, I MET THEM ONLINE! ;)
For those few of you who don't know the scientific aspects of 'ghost hunting', I figured I would share a few tidbits right now. Our main tools are Electromagnetic field meters (EMF), laser temperature guns, highly sensitive audio recording devices (for EVP - Electronic Voice Phenomena), standard and digital camera's and night vision video camera's. Our team has 2 Mediums, myself and our associate Gary McKinstry.
What we usually do after someone contacts us for an investigation, and Mike (The Founder of out group) makes sure they are legit, is go to the home or business and first psychically feel out where the highest energy levels are in the place. Then after Me or Gary (or both sometimes) find those spots - we get readings from the EMF and temp equiptment and compare them to a control area where we feel nothing different. I have not had a time yet where the EMF readings were not way off the normal measures in a spot that I or Gary felt an entity was. We then set up video and audio as well as take numerous rolls of pictures, not only of those spots but of control places of normal energy... Then we go home and go through all of the video/audio/photos meticulously looking for anything out of the ordinary. We have caught so many instances of paranormal phenomena on video/photographs, that I can't deny SOMETHING is at work there...but to prove just WHAT is another story...
and it is my life's passion to do just that...

Romantic Entanglement via AIM
Adding to the last thought, I often think about such things. If the Internet wasn't around I would probably be in a mental hospital or I'd be a repressed little janitor. Not only is the Internet the reason for opening minds and spreading the truth of expression, but it helps everyone find their place in the world.
You would think that the world is so big and there are so many people everywhere that everyone could find someone. But that's not how it is these days. Not at all. It seems weird though that you need a computer to connect you to the real world. I've said that too, "Get out more, go online."
Aside from finding your life and your calling from online peruseing, there are so many people who are meant to meet via the Internet. That's something I also say, "You need to be more social, go online." You can find a body in a bar, but you can find a soul online. Despite of what Oprah or Dr. Phil may tell you, most people online are being honest and even more honest than they would face to face. This of course depends on where you are online and what exactly you're looking for. (I.E. If you're in some random Yahoo chatroom looking for the love of your life, you may be putting yourself in danger.) I suppose it all takes a bit of luck too. I've met hundreds of people from the Internet, before I valued my life and sanity, and they were all basically fine upstanding people just looking for a good bud. You've got to be careful, but there is no science to being careful after all.
D & Necro's Tips for Being More Careful
- Insist the person have a cam and go live at random times.
- Have them scan in their ID for you.
- Call them and have them call you several times.
- And if you're really unsure; birth certificate anyone?

Internet Friendships, Love and probability....
It never ceases to amaze me how much the internet has opened up opportunities that we otherwise would never have...
Like friendships. If not for the net, I would never have known D - who honestly is a great friend...
Think about it for one moment - if we all had to choose our friends and lovers/partners from people we would meet in the course of our daily lives while out and about in our towns....how compatible would we all be??? How many realistic choices would we have? Would they be good matches?
What if our only outlet for finding dates were through local bars???? How limited our choices would be...
How amazingly easy the internet has made it to find truly compatible people with common interests and goals. It puts love within the reach of EVERYONE now - at the touch of a keyboard - you can find it online in a second... Every possible taste and fetish - can be found. Every psychosis/neurosis about meeting people can be lessened through online interaction.
There are so many less lonely people in the world now due to technological advances.
THAT is a beautiful thing.

Lunch time!!!!
Here's a cop-out post with a link to my favorite play Sartre's No Exit.
If you like good existentialist stories - this is for you!
It's not that lengthy and as an added bonus, for those of you who have never read him, you will soon be able to say, 'Why yes! I am familiar with Jean-Paul Sartre!" ;)

Movie Theaters and the (Wo)Men Who Hate Them
I don't like seeing movies on the "big screen." It's not something I never found to be fun. They are too loud or they're too big or the crowd is full of punks.
They haven't really made the whole movie going experience that much better either. Thankfully we now have soft chairs that sometimes recline. The soda is bigger, the popcorn still could choke a cow, but the movie itself is just the same. Some theaters have moved into the new century, but most of them still use that blotchy jumpy film. Have we not figured out a better way to project a large image onto a screen? Must I pay $15 to watch a movie on equiptment that hasn't been updated since 1985?
I didn't think so!

The Ad Channel
You've got to be joking. There's going to be a new television channel that shows advertisements only? (Would link it but it's being a bastard.)
I can not stand commercials. They are just as bad as songs they play on the radio. After the third time in the same hour, you are ready to go ballistic.
That's why I tape all of my programs. I must be able to fast forward. The perfect example of this ABC's "Kingdom Hospital." I loved that show, but the commercial breaks were like ten minutes a fucking piece. Christ.

Random Acts of Anonymous kindness...
People who regularly read my journal saw a link I posted to The Generosity Game.
The object of the game is to do some random generous act, anonymously and leave a card behind instructing the person you did the act towards to do the same for someone else and pass along the card....You start with 10 or 100 cards and use them all - once they are gone - you have done your part to set off a chain reaction of kindness.
To me, this is such an awesome thing to do, because it DOES get the ball rolling towards a more conscientious, caring and humanitarian based society. Sure there will be many people who may throw the card away - (THOSE BASTARDS! - YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!!!) but if a few people keep it going here and there - well, it's worth it.
So, if you are into general random acts of kindness like I am, check it out!
It's anonymous - like those pledges that I keep wondering about!!! ;) Please drop me a hint at my e-mail if you pledged to this blogathon anonymously... I won't scare you by publicly thanking you and showing the world how nice you are! I WOULD, however, like to thank you myself! :)
Pledges can still be made all through the blog at http://www.project-blog.org
Thank you so much for hanging with us and giving us your support!!! *hugs*

Here's a few interesting facts about inmates who have been executed in Texas.
The most common ordered last meals are (in decreasing order):
Double Cheeseburger w/fries
Steak with Baked Potato
Huge Breakfast with Eggs, Bacon, Sausage and Biscuits
Fried chicken with biscuits
The most common drinks ordered for a last meal are:
Dr. Pepper
Fruit Punch
Milk (pitcher of)
Milkshake
There's your bit of random useless knowledge for the morning...
Now here's a bit of careless advice:
Stay away from Dr. Pepper - it may make you homicidal... :-D

RuPaul's Red Hot Fire Dies Down???
I am constantly dissapointed at the music industry! They piss me off so much and it doesn't matter if you are a private label or a big power house corporation. I have yet to see the marketing strategy of delaying the release of an album. It killed Anastacia's American debut and has probably ruined the carreers of several people we haven't even heard of.
RuPaul's newly anticipated album, "Red Hot," was to debut as a SUMMER ANTHEM. That meant it was going to be released at the beginning of summer. Right, that made sense. The release date came and went with a posting that the NEW release date was in August. I thought no surprise there, it still can be a summer anthem. I was thinking perhaps that's a good idea to wait until she's toured a bit more.
Currently the release date has been pushed up to September '04. Looks like the summer anthem is now an autumn release. Don't get me wrong, I am so happy that after eight long years we are graced with a new album from my childhood mentor. However, I am right pissed that it's going to take even longer to fiest my ears on it. Let's hope September is Ru's final answer and that it doesn't turn towards a Christmas release.
The music industry is perhaps the only industry I am not directly involved with. So I can't imagine what they're thinking. Is it supposed to build up anticipation? If anything it makes me want to support the album less. Not to mention you wait for it so long you stop checking the release date and then you'll never buy that thing!

and I thought *I* was paranoid....
Okay...me bitching about paranoia is like the pot calling the kettle black - but...D is the most paranoid MOFO I have ever met... hee-hee
I come from a long lineage of SEVERE Paranoid Schizophrenics. No Bullshit.
My Dad's Uncle was so paranoid that he moved every year AND would only eat foods that he himself caught or picked. That dude was so rich from never shopping, that it was a shame he was too paranoid to ever get a woman, cause I am sure he would have gave her everything she wanted...except store bought foods....and a steady address...err-forget I said any of that - he was better off alone.
Anyway - D lives in a nice quiet neighborhood, too quiet, in fact. YET, he keeps his doors DOUBLE locked at all times and then even locks himself in his room at night JUST INCASE someone unknown makes it through the first set of doors.... Man - He's got me and my 'must have a webcam for me to believe you are who/what you say you are' beat! lol
D says he left his bedroom door unlocked last night - but that's just because a) - he knew they would get to me first as I was in the living room.... or B) - he was hoping I'd go up there and molest him... nah - I was too damned tired and he wasn't in drag... heh-heh-heh
Be back in 45...every hour...Gods help me!

Cultural Attache
We ate at a Chinese restaurant yesterday and were waited on by the rudest China dude in the world. Just because you can't speak my language does not give you that good a reason to treat me like crap. We didn't understand him, he didn't understand us. The dude must have been new.
I have never had such bad service at that particular establishment. While none of them speak English, they are usually pleasant. Have you ever noticed in those Chinese places they always go over in the corner and jibber on in their language? It always sounds really bad and they are probably talking shit about everyone. It's just amusing when they do it. Now when other minorities do it, it's not so cute. Chinese guys are just snuggly though!
For the particular waiter guy, he got no tip as he motioned to us in this "What do you want?" kind of way. It's like a vicious circle and I hope he breaks it. People are rude to him and so that makes him bitter, therefore he's bitter and gets no tip.
As Necro said, these people need religion.

Atkins will make you kill for Cheesy Bread
As some of you know, I have been on the Atkins Plan for about 9-10 weeks now. I lost about 23 lbs so far, and I love the way I feel without tons of excess sugar/carbs coursing through my bloodstream.
For those of you not familiar with the Atkins Diet (and for those of you who are sadly misinformed) - It is a SAFE diet - you DO have some carbs each day AND vegetables, but mainly protein and cheeses, etc. It is a highly effective way to lose weight when other diets don't work.
BUT - I miss carbs - especially Domino's Cheezy Bread.
A few days ago, my daughter wanted Domino's Pizza. I was in a severe quandry.
I LOVE cheezy bread. It's my favorite take-out item. I NEEDED cheesy bread...
but I also feared it. I had been SOOOOOOOOO good on this diet. Not ONE screw up.
Then that....having to go into the Domino's and smell the tasty luscious carbs...it was too much.
I broke down
I ATE THE CHEESY BREAD!!!!
I ATE PIZZA TOO.
GOD DAMN IT!
Cheezy Bread...
It's PURE EVIL.

AH! - First Post of the Blog...
Good Morning! :-D
As most of you know, D and I are blogging for The Autism Society of America.
As a parent of an Autistic child, I am often beseiged with sympathetic and sometimes rather unnerving comments, such as: "Oh - that must be VERY difficult for you" or "I am so sorry - it really takes a special person to deal with that type of thing".
In truth, I must say, that being a parent of an Autistic child really isn't any more difficult than being a parent of a non-autistic. As a mom of three, I know that each child has their own set of preferences and personality traits that require extra consideration on my part. It is no different with my Autistic child. He is simply MY CHILD - just like the other two. He may not talk yet, and he may like to spin things or rock on the couch, or play the same part of a video over and over, but to me - it's just like Nik's interest in video games and solitude and Rhiannon's interest in pets and socializing... It's part of who he is regardless of the cause...and I love him for his uniqueness. There are many joys to being the parent of an Autistic child... The smiles and hugs I get mean so much more when I DO get them. Each milestone my child reaches, brings more joy and is taken so much less for granted than if reached by a 'normal' (and I hate to use that term) child. I know people mean well when they attempt to sympathise with a parent of a special needs child... but I don't really agree with what they think...
On my way here to PA, I saw much pretty scenery. Gorgeous and varied shades of green, grey skies with rain, stone embankments. At one point, I came across a swamp in the middle of the divided highway. It had the most gorgeous purple flowers growing from it. It was different than any other scenery I saw, and it seemed out of place - but it's uniqueness and odd placement made it all the more beautiful to behold.
Such is it with my Autistic child.
He is a wonderful blessing to me.
