I just got to thinking a couple hours ago about how obsessed I am with random things. I though I would make a list of some of them and explain a little bit about what its is and why I like it.


1.) Ex-Celerator hand dryers.

These things are so cool! I could spend hours in a bathroom washing and rewashing my hands just to use one of these things. I love watching the way it makes my skin ripple in a weirdly awesome way, like a hair dryer blowing onto a bowl of milk, and the tingly feeling I get when my hands are dry. Their one downfall is the noise. They sound like a freakin' Boeing 747 is taking of in the bathroom, and I fear if I were to spend all day playing with one, I'd lose my hearing faster than a patron of a Spinal Tap concert.


2.) Wipeout

I feel sorry for the people who can't watch this glorious show! If you don't know what it is, here's an equation that should explain what it's about.

Ninja Warrior + water + crazy people willing to do anything for $50,000 + Dweeby announcers with rapier wits= MAJOR LULZ!!1!

Seriously, if you live in the states and have ABC, then you should check out this hysterical show. If you don't look for it on youtube or something. I promise you you'll laugh. And if you don't, well, you just don't know what funny is.

3.) Family Force Five video for "Country Gentleman"

2 words : Mullet Slap!

4.) Spinach (fresh, not canned.)

I'm not a muscle bound sailor man, but I just can't get enough of the leafy green stuff. Seroiusly, I may never put lettuce on my sandwiches again now that I've experienced the glory of crunching through a mound of crisp, delicious spinach mounted on my burger. Speaking of which that brings me to

5.) Cheeseburgers

For the longest time I didn't eat burgers, because I had somehow gotten it into my head that I didn't like them. I don't know why, because they may be the best food since chocolate (which is a whole other journal entry altogether.) So I've been eating a lot of them lately to make up for 20 years of avoiding them (I'm 21 by the way). And today I had a Kobe beef cheeseburger. KOBE BEEF! You better believe I was happy (though the $7.00 price tag was a little upsetting.)But it was worth every cent.

6.) Purple cars

I like the color purple, and I think it's strange that more people don'd have purple cars. Not that I do, but I want one. Hey, nothing says awesome like barreling down the street in a grape colored sports car, while all the people in their non-purple cars stare at you and think "Man they're so lucky. I wish I had a purple car." What, you mean you don't think that?

7.) Apocalyptica

Lets face it. Cellos are cool.Heavy metal is also cool. So what could be cooler than banging your head to Metallica's Master of Puppets being played by four hot Finnish dudes on electric cellos? I can't think of anything, except maybe purple cars, so if you like heavy metal, cellos and hot Finnish dudes, I would check them out. Hey, it's a lot better than trying to bang your head to talk radio.

8.) Screaming at other cars

Aside from the fact that he is not purple, I like Sparky, my 1995 Chevy Lumina, because it comes equipped with things that many cars I've seen do not. You know, optional things like brakes, turn signals, speedometers, and a driver who never passed their drivers exam. So I guess I really shouldn't yell at that huge F-150 that cuts me off or I shouldn't blame the SUV that turns left at that red light, even though there is a sign that says "No left turn on red". But when it DOES happen, it really chaps my fanny, so I can't help but scream "USE YOUR TURN SIGNAL YOU MORONIC MEATHEAD!!" or "WHERE'S A GOOD COP WHEN YOU NEED ONE!!" while grinding my fist down on my horn. I know it doesn't do any good, but it does make me feel better.

9.) Magnus Bane

I've only read the first installment of the Mortal Instruments trilogy, but I've already formed a fondness for the glitter addicted high warlock of Broolkyn, and NO it's not because he's gay and I'm one of those people who think that all gay people are cool (from someone who knows, they are NOT!) It's because he cracks me up to no end. Sure, all of the characters in the book seem to have been born with a razor sharp wit, but Magnus is the only one who has one AND throws birthday parties for his estranged cat Chairman Meow, cavorts around in pink dragon print kimonos, and wears more glitter than everyone in the Ice Capades combined. Just tone down all the multicolored stuff please dude? It hurts my eyes just reading about it.

10.) The nameless dude at the gas station.

Not far from where I live is an old gas station that used to be a Citgo, but now has no offical name. Nonetheless, it is still in business, and working behind the cash register is the most beautiful Middle Eastern man I have ever seen in my life. His eyes are like chocolate colored gemstones, his hair a long, thick, near black cascade, his skin smooth and brown like polished wood. Okay, knocking off the mushy stuff. But seriously, I went in there to pay for my gas the other day and I saw him. He was like a Prince of the Desert, and I couldn't help but gawk at him as I gave him the money to fill up Sparky and nearly melted when he said... "Which pump is this for?" Now I've taken to going in there for any reason I can think of to see that gorgeous, nameless cashier, but I havn't had the luck. It was like he was there, and then he was gone, never to be beheld by my eyes again. (sigh). Man, didn't know I could be so mushy.


Well, there you have it, the uncomprehinsive list of things and people I obsess over, despite however strange it may seem. So now consider yourself lucky that you've read this journal, because it should let you know that your bizarre obsession with Sailor Moon may not be a bizarre as it seems. Until next time Deviants.



........... PURPLE CARS!
