Sweet! That's gonna be quite a scene! Drive safe, Brother!

Speaking of Day of the Dead, ain't it ironic how George Romero's zombie movie of the same title has nothing to do with the Mexican Holiday? ::stick out tongue::

So I made some friends last night! I went over to this guy's house where he and four others we're all set up and decked out and ready to play vampire the Masquerade which if any of you don't know is a tabletop role-playing game similar to Dungeons & Dragons. Yes, I am a hardcore nerd. I felt comfortable with them and they shared my kind of humor which is good because it can be pretty damn offencive to some people. They were friendly and there was one guy who appeared Asian or perhaps a Pacific Islander who appeared to be in his mid-to-late twenties that was talking about having to go to Pittsburgh next week for filming. I didn't really get to talk to him much about that because the game is going on and I was observing. I used to play vampire back in high school but these guys take it to a whole other level which I think is fucking awesome! I have been in Las Vegas 6 months and I think I am finally starting to make some friends. Life seems to be looking up for me for the time being. I can honestly say I am happy and these last 6 months have been the most liberating six months of my life.

Well....guess we'll be seein' ya then bro..Peace!

That's great Morningriser! I'm happy for you! :)

I need to make me some friends like that too. People who I can go visit and hang out with so I can get the hell away from Mommie Dearest. ::smile::

I can’t speak for anybody but myself but I find it harder to make friends as I get older. I think my anxiety has pretty much made me a recluse and the only thing I get invited to is bars and I refuse to do that.

I have Aspergers Syndrome which has always impaired my abilty to make friends but ironically I find it easier to make friends as I get older.

I only had one friend in my life but now I have a few friends on the internet who I like a lot. I think maybe I've learned from my own experiences how to be more social. ::smile::

I had a big social circle when I was younger but over the years most of them have either moved away or we just simple grown apart. Many have kids now and I don’t so there’s that. I moved to a new city a year ago and don’t know anybody outside of work and they are mostly younger people.

I don't think it really so much has to do with getting older being harder to make friends as it does that the world is changing. People are a whole lot more cautious than they used to be about who they open themselves up to and while it's never anything personal against you per se, people can't stop and take into account that not everyone is terrible but yet they treat strangers all the same. It also has to do with where you live. I live in Las Vegas in the majority of the people here are Hangers On so you need to be just as good as they are in their eyes or better or else you don't matter. Luckily there are still good people in this world. All the people I was hanging out with Friday night all seem to have really nice jobs and the guy who was hosting had a small home but it was still a really nice one in a residential area. They seem to work somehow in the entertainment industry as a few of them seem to work for a software company and at least two of them are cameramen. I'm just glad they don't look down on me like a lesser person because of my disability and having to be on Social Security.

These shoes are too tight.

Today, I resisted three AMAZING looking cakes they gave us at work. Not a bite.

I agree It's just harder for people to trust other people nowadays especially when they hear about all the horrible things that happen in the world.

I think the internet kind of makes it easier to make friends than real life though. It somehow feels safer to open up to people when you don't actually have to meet them. But the internet can be dangerous too because people lie about who they are and will prey on the naive and vulnerable.

Internet friends are good for people who don't really get out much and have trouble mingling with people in person. I used to be the same way but now I can say that real friends are so much more meaningful than people you know over the Internet, no offense to anyone if I just hurt your feelings because it's nothing personal at all. I just prefer real life experiences over digital ones because you honestly have no clue who you're talking to on the internet and people feel more obligated to be rude over the Internet because they know they can get away with it.

Remember how I said before that I always wanted to be a dark evil witch? Guess who my Disney childhood hero was a as a kid? ::big grin::

Honestly, who wouldn't want to have magic powers that can get them anything they want? ::devil::

I'd be brewing potions, flying, shapeshifting, zapping fireballs and lightening bolts out my fingers, putting mind control spells on people, conjuring spirits and demons, gaining immortality, and all that fun stuff. ::cool::

I just hope I don't get caught by witchhunters and burned at the stake or crushed with heavy rocks. ::EEK!::

I'm actually thinking about getting one of these for Christmas.

Seriously what horror fan wouldn't want a creepy undead mermaid doll? ::wink::

Well...alltho I gave up action figures some time ago, books I never gave up. So dig...I been tryin' to line up plans for New Year's Eve, so I hooked up 6 advance VIP tix to a funk show. I had to print a PDF what ever that is..::confused:: so I go to the library for help to print out my tix...They go "Oh you can't you our computers, your currently banned"
::love:: I love my little town library ::love::

They say "You've reached the renewal limit on these few titles here. Just bring 'em in and prove their not lost, and you can check them back out again. I'm all cool. Go home, get the goods, come back.
The librarian scoops up three good titles on puts 'em under the desk. I thought it was all cool and I could hang onto 'em a while longer::sad::nope. She had to take my Betty Page bookmark outta one of 'em::big grin::

I sacrificed Horror literature for live funk. I know that's wrong, I'm holdin' 6 VIP tix tho.::smile::

Didn't your mother ever tell you not to watch porn on the library computers? Mine didn't either and I got in trouble once as well, when I was 16 ::big grin::

I hate library computers. They always fuck up on me. ::sad::

I was 16 around the time when the internet started booming. I didn't have any money as a child in my family didn't either until I was 18 and I got my first computer. But before that anytime I wanted use the internet I had to go to the library. Needless to say I got in trouble and kicked off for a month for trying to print off naked pictures of Carmen Electra.

I have went and done a bad thing. I hadn't had a cigarette since the beginning of Summer and then Monday night for some reason I felt impost to buy a pack of cigarettes. I told myself all alone I was only going to get that one pack but this morning I smoked the last one and then I went and bought another pack. I have been drinking a lot of coffee lately and I think that might have something to do with it. I need to chill out on it. I was already having trouble sleeping as is before the time change considering I moved 3 time zones away but now that it's getting dark so early I am waking up really early and craving coffee. I am going to try my damndest to go tomorrow without it and after that stay the fuck away from it and cigarettes. I mean weed is already an expensive enough vice as it is.

Dont beat yourself up. I once quit for a whole year and ..boom..just bummed one off a friend and started up again. But Ive been cigarette free for about 28 years now. Never quit trying to quit.

When I first moved out here back in May I quit because a pack of Marlboros R8 fucking dollars here. I really had to watch my money because at the time my social security check was being garnished for something and I just couldn't afford that have it and then at the beginning of Summer when I took that girl and I was telling everyone about, she got me smoking again and I think it was so I could also Supply her with cigarettes but once I kicked her out I quit cold turkey again. Every now and then I thought about a cigarette but for some reason I had an Impulse Monday night. This is one habit I really don't need to get back.

I'm having to quit a nasty addiction of my own. I managed to go four days without doing it and then I started doing it again every day the last several days so I'm trying to make myself quit again. :(

Here's a picture of my baby neice. ::love::

That one is cute.
Still looks so new...

Friends, what quality antivirus for a laptop can you recommend?

OMG! She's adorable! Love her hair!

Gorgeous. Very pretty little gown or sleep sack. Might be one of those ones that closes up at the bottom.

Think you and Anna will have another?

Thanks guys! She us adorable isn't she? And my Mom and my brother's girlfriend picked that nightgown out for her they like those kinds of floral patterns. I think it looks beautiful and suits her very well. ::cool::

She's adorable psycho! You will have to corrupt her with good horror while she's young ::big grin::

That's how I did my baby sister. ::big grin::

I wasn't exposed to her until I was around 5 years old and my first movie was a nightmare on Elm Street. I don't think it had even been on VHS very long but my dad rented it and on the first viewing it creeped me out and then the next morning I remember my dad and my mom move the Dining room table into the living room so we can watch it again while having breakfast because my dad became obsessed with that movie. I start having really bad hardcored nightmares and then my dad felt like moving me up to the big leagues so he exposed me to The Shining. I was pretty traumatized as a child I'm sure you all know by now haha. In all honesty parents shouldn't be exposing their children to movies like that at such an early age but whenever I got to watch something like that my parents were always there. They weren't the kind of people that would just let me loose with a PS4 controller and let me play GTA V even if those things were around back then. Crazy how things have changed in 30 years.

Lol, she looks like she getting ready to kick up her heels and start dancing! ::love::

2My Mom never really cared what I watched or played because I could tell the difference between TV and real life. I was 10 when I first played Resident Evil. lol

And thanks bloof! :D

The first violent video game I was ever exposed to was Mortal Kombat. The first violent video game I ever owned was Mortal Kombat 2 and my grandmother about shit herself when she saw how violent it was.

As a kid I played everything from Resident Evil to Mortal Kombat to House of the Dead. ::cool::

Has anyone ever wonder if our universe is just a cog in a machine or something? I mean think about our son and all the energy it generates and then think about all the other suns in the Milky Way galaxy and all the energy they generate and then all the other universes and electrical fields that last for billions of light-years. Now think about all the black holes in the universe that sucks this energy out. Where does it go?

I always heard matter cannot be created or destroyed. Maybe the afterlife plays into that? Assuming there really is some sort of afterlife for every living thing.

But I feel like our universe is just a speck in something much greater. I mean these black holes do have to lead somewhere, but where? It's like these black holes are taking the energy of our universe is creating like we are generating it to power something. Just like we can look under a microscope and see super small organisms, what if we are being looked at under a microscope right now by some sort of superior beings which I guess to us would be considered gods?

You know I think that is a very strong possibility.
