It's 5:30 in the morning.

My Econ still isn't done.

I really, really love procrastinating. It's so easy when one's Internet connection is working.

This is what I've been procrastinating with: Memes. Namely, music title memes. They're weirdly amusing. I did one with Beatles song titles about a year ago. Since I've been listening to nothing but Steely Dan and Oingo Boingo for the past few weeks (that and Bach's "Little Organ Fugue in G Minor"), I used those.

I fully expect every single person who sees this entry to immediately gank this. GO. NOW. BEFORE I TURN YOU INTO A FROG TOO.

( Cut for annoying meme )

I really have absolutely nothing interesting to say right now. Except that I need a plushy d20 to cuddle. Neal brought his over during the game, and I hung onto it while fighting giants.
I've got stuffed animals, though...I've got a nice purple dragon at home, named Spiro. After Nixon's vice-president, not the video game character. The dragon looks a lot like Agnew. The resemblance is uncanny.
And I've got a demented looking teddy bear up here. It's not that he's a particularly unusual teddy bear--he's brown and fuzzy and has a ribbon. It's just that the look in his smooth plastic eyes is that of a teddy bear who is filled with insane rage. I believe he wants to kill, rape, and eat everything in my room. I've named him Lee Harvey Oswald and I tied the ribbon around his head like a bandanna. My grandma Debbie sent him to me. Thank you Grandma.

I would like to add that I'm now watching "Captain Planet." I loved this show when I was in third grade. I really have no idea why.
Oh, mannn...I remember sitting in front of the TV for hours watching this. The freaky supervillianess with the hair that covered her eye. (What was her name?) The multi-ethnic group of kids with the "cool" American kid that I think everybody hated. Oh, and Gaia--always thought she was gorgeous. Also always thought that Gaia and Captain Planet were doin' it. (As far as I knew what that meant when I was in 3rd grade. Well, I did.)
Now that I think about it, parts of the show are almost Wiccan propaganda. The things with the power ring--power of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water. And Heart. Fifth...element thing. Point of the pentagram. And Gaia. She always got really sick whenever the villianess did anything, as I recall.
You know, the villianess doesn't really have any point other than to be pollutionlike. I can take that in the Fourth Horseman Biker of the Apocalypse, but a supervillian is human and doesn't have such a metaphorical role. I think she ought to be based on Dagny Taggart or one of the characters from "The Fountainhead." One of those hardcore rape-the-earth-for-the-greater-good types. At least give her a good reason, y'know?
I can even sing along with the theme song. God. That's pathetic.
On that note, book recommendation for the eco-geek within you: "Zodiac" by Neal Stephenson. Not one of his better-known books, but I like it.
