  I’m trying to just train myself to blog when my net is up,
  not just when I feel like it.  Haha because then it’s never up. (no bad
  jokes please.)

  I usually compose blogs on xanga then sometimes
  post repeats on myspace–but last night I got wild and crazy and posted
  on myspace first.  wow!  Haha

  From wilspace:

  

  Tiddlebats and Pickwicks.   

  Well
  for a change of pace, I’ll write a blog on myspace first.  Usually on
  the rare times I post something here I compose first on xanga
  (www.wilcarter.com) then copy over…  I could whine no one reads me
  here but then again I don’t post much here, and unless I install one of
  those spytracker things- no way to really know if anyone reads here or
  not.
  
  Comcast ( my local net sometime-provider) worked great when
  I first got hooked up in August, and it’s been down hill since around
  Thanksgiving.  I don’t think the Atlanta net companies can keep up with
  demand since no one I’ve polled really has good story about whatever
  provider they have.
  
  My existence has been cluttered most of my
  life, so things being relatively uncluttered– floorwise or
  emotionally… I feel a little lost?  Haha  When seems you pushed
  against walls of one sort or another all your life–almost perplexing
  when the barriers appear less or gone.
  
  Saw the movie “Children of Men”
  the other night.  Grim but well made.  Premise is that about now all
  the women in the world become infertile, and no more children are
  born.  Story takes place about 20 years later in 2026.  Some what
  cynical government worker gets pulled into escalating series of events
  which eventually finds him helping a refugee girl who is pregnant
  escape England, which has become island police state by then.  (And
  from news items I’ve been reading about authorities over there
  increasingly putting cameras everywhere–like everyone’s trash
  dumpsters most recently–they seem well on the path.)

  I may have to get the soundtrack.  They have a version of Ruby Tuesday
  that’s touching.  The original novel was published in the 80′s by
  British mystery writer P. D. James and at the time everyone was making
  big deal about a mystery writer producing science fiction work.  Yes! 
  Once you’ve been pigeon holed by THEM–
  can’t leave the hole!  But actually at the time she got much praise for
  the detail she realised such a bleak future possibility.   The movie
  was  effective in giving England that Israeli blitzed South Lebanon
  look.  Well–if there’s no future–then little concern with repairing
  infrastructure, and fuck the enviroment!  Haha
  
  I guess the movie
  had “happy” enough ending–given the bleak circumstances–but–just
  makes me think a lot.  Which I probably do too much anyway.
  
  Brain reformat anyone?  Haha
  
  I
  dream alot of weird shit.  Recent variations I’m in crowded space
  figthing hordes of whatever–mummies, soldiers, demons. Sounds like an
  ad for The 300–which I’ve been counting down towards for some time. Lets see– recent movies I’ve seen:  Ghost Rider quite good.  Flaming Skulls ands chains!  Haha    Hannibal Rising was first time blood was a fashion accessory.  Probably should be retitled The Adventures of the Young Hanibal Lector.  He was cast as sort of wounded hero type like Batman Begins or the X-People movies.  Haha     And Pan’s Labyrinth was
  good, but if you’ve seen the preview–that uses and reuses up about all
  the fantasy in the whole movie.  It was set during the Spanish Civil
  War, and had generous amounts of war torture.  I have no problem with
  blood and guts–but I was expecting more of a twisted Terry Gillam type
  fantasy based on the trailers.   It’s not a kids movie.
  
  I’m
  craving macaroni and cheese for some reason.  I wonder if I can
  substitute one of my many flavored coffee creamers in lieu of my
  recently spoiling cow lactate which I liberated into the window sink
  earlier this day…if I have a box of m & c though.
  
  *checks*
  
  I do!  But I think I’ll wait until I buy milk–I’m not that desperate.
  
  There’s no place like home.

  
  

  Bill came over and did  some
  more wiring on the house.  I was given A Plus on how the house
  looked–haha.  But the weeds in my yard are the only green in the
  neighborhood–haha    I usually think yards are waste of time, money
  and effort, but I’m getting mnore flyers on the door offering
  lawnservices–mmmm.   I could paint myself green and work naked in the
  yard as the Green Man– but when I mention him– most people think I mean Martians.   ahem

  I guess I need to make a Lowes run for some stuff.

  This is nice.   Xanga is not letting me save this.    …    …     …    …    …..

  Ok–at least got the blog itself posted….
