richard belzer. transgressive horror. DIAL THE TRUTH. when you put it that way, the world is all wonder and rainbows, isn't it?!

it's a big thing with people this year to do everything. while tweak does win, it seems everyone has their hands in too many pots (except heather, who is so cool and 17 today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEATHER!!!). i'm committed to...young democrats, first and foremost, i will clear any space in my schedule to aid tweak, and then at an infinitely lower second the club formerly known as drama, the committee i'm on seems to have crinkled up and died, "our" (his really) job is rather on the done side.

ARGH - all right, i am very angry. we may very well have digital cable in my dad's room, but it's not practicle to do your three-digits channel-surfing up there. we may have one in the sunroom, but my brother has a devastatingly creepy monopoly over it (he is always out there, and when he's not, he's taping something on the dvr, he yelled at me the other day for having two episodes of "law & order: criminal intent" on there, saying i was hogging space, and i checked all the things he has recorded...i could cry, really, so could you). so if i get to see anything at all, i get to see it in the living room. so i thought today i would go home and relax and switch on a movie. so i punch in the code, lay back...and the picture is completely digied-out. my brother passes through for food, "oh, the cable is out on that tv". all right, then, may i use the sunroom? "no, i'm recording" - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!

AND HE WATCHES THEM AS THEY RECORD! HE WATCHES TV ALL DAY! HE DOES VERY LITTLE ELSE! ALL I WANT TO DO IS WATCH "LAW & ORDER" SPINOFFS, A DOCUMENTARY HERE OR THERE, THE OCCASSIONAL HORROR FILM, BUT NOOOO - ANGEL IS ON.

i'm positively seething with rage right now. seething.

if anybody should ask i'm going to a seminar
