Skreeakch! Inflamed arm and ice angel

This stupid thing cuts me off at 9:30 instead of 10:00 for some reason. Since I've run out of time, I'll be posting today's post tomorrow.


K. This video is taking forever to upload. Instead, have an AMV I found.

I still don't know what AMV stands for. Animated Music Video? Makes sense.

Ana and Kata are the two fourth-dimensional cardinal directions. Left, right, up, down, forward, backward, ana and kata. They're also the names of my lead characters in the play I'm writing. Ana and Kata (not necessarily a love story) stars Annie AKA Ana and Kate AKA Kata, two sisters. There's something not quite right about them. Other than that, my ideas have somewhat run dry. I need inspiration.

Today has been a Hot day. I have Hot days and Cold days. Neither is particularly better than the other by definition. Hot days are fast-paced, dramatic and full of energy, while Cold days are slow, meticulous and emotional. It's been awhile since the last Hot day.

Here's the story so far:

Two heartbroken characters (slightly stalkerish) are attending a support group for the brokenhearted in the somewhat vain hope that their loves will be looking for them there, despite not having seen or heard from them in three/seven years respectively. They are both so anxious they arrive half an hour early. Dr. Frank, whom the surgeon has previously operated on, suggests that the two go out for coffee together.

Meanwhile, at Pete's Coffee, a pretty girl has walked in and ordered a hot chocolate. The CEO of a local company strolls in, gets some coffee, and tried to make small talk. Pete, the owner of the coffeeshop, is also attracted to the pretty girl and sits directly between them. The pair begin arguing over who is the better man, ending with the CEO insulting his coffee and then pouring it over Pete's head. Pete retaliates. The pair agree to go outside and fight.

Rose, a surly teenager trying to annoy her mother, has a date with a guy in a penguin suit. He wears it because he works at the zoo, and it's kind of become part of who he is. Rose is at first shocked, but soon warms to the idea of a penguin suit (her mother will be horrified). So, she quickly invites him home to meet her parents. They get into his special penguin car, borrowed from the zoo just for the occasion, and start driving. Feeling romantic, penguin suit guy puts his arm around Rose, but she stops him by putting out her cigarette on his suit leg. Unfortunately the suit catches fire, followed by the entire car.

An undercover detective is interviewing a model, Lola, for a photoshoot for Vogue magasine. He suspects her to be a Black Widow, a seductress who murders her boyfriends one after the other. As the interview progresses he becomes more and more uncomfortable and Lola becomes more and more, shall we say, physical.

Meanwhile, two musclemen, Bob and Joe, are working out in the gym and talking about the clubs they're going to tonight. Joe tries to lift a particularly heavy weight, but almost drops it on his neck. Bob detects something strange about the weight, specifically "it smells like that girl I dated last night." They decide to inspect the surveillance videos for the gym. There they discover a video of Lola doing something to the weight.

Two goth teenagers are sitting in a basement. One lives there, the other works at a funeral home. They've put videos of themselves on a dating website, just to see what will happen. Suddenly, a message pops up, telling them that a perfect match has been found. Guess what? They're the matches for each other.

A grubby beer-drinking bounty hunter is visiting a gun show. He's been given the task of killing Duke Ironbolt, and he needs a gun to do it. A surly girl tells him she can get him the one he needs, but it'll be expensive. They agree to split the money he gets from killing Duke.

Not too far away, Duke is visiting his extremely rich father, who is cruising a dating website. When Duke inquires how the clock shop is doing, his father tells him he's left it all to his brother. Enraged (or at least mildly annoyed), Duke spots the woman his father's talking to on the dating website and decides to get his revenge by stealing her heart. The two set off to visit her.
Meanwhile, the girl in question and her boyfriend are plotting how they're going to steal this old man's fortunes by seducing him over a dating website. The boyfriend, Sky, is unhappy about her lack of commitment to him, but decides to hold on for the money.

Alfonso, the Spanish bodyguard and butcher, is planning a wedding for himself. He's instructed his inept wedding planner and his reluctant assistant to find him a bride for Friday - or else. Desperate, the unlucky pair go to force the planner's sister to fall in love with Alfonso.
A famous baseball player receives a note from a girl telling him to meet her at the train station. Once there, he finds her to be a fourteen-year-old girl. After being shot several times by the peanut gallery he tries to leave, until she reveals herself to be his daughter from Alabama. He is surprised, then decides to take the girl and her sister to a baseball game to make up for the past fourteen years.

I think that's everyone...
