Today was not as bad as I expected it to be. Actually, it was friggin' GREAT.
Went to Uncle Gary's house tonight to watch "Outfoxed", a documentary on how Fox News distorts its information. There were about twenty people there, mostly Gary's intellectual friends. We sat in the basement and watched the DVD on folding chairs. I felt like I was doing something subversive and important.
The documentary was very good, although I really knew what it was saying already. What, Fox News doesn't always tell the truth? I am amazed.
There was a videoconference on MoveOn.Org afterwards, with the director of the movie and Al Franken. I typed in a few questions about the effectiveness of humor to get a point of view across, and it showed up on the map but they never answered it.
Earlier today...
Lannon is one of my very good friends; we've been friends since seventh or eighth grade. In eighth grade, I became attracted to her, and told her that. Today, we finally hooked up while watching Y Tu Mama Tambien.
She had actually been flirting with me for a while, I suppose. I always thought it was teasing. But during the scene in the leaf-filled pool, she started rubbing my leg, and honestly I don't think I have to explain what happened next.
It was a little different from what I'd known; I've never actually made anyone come before (as far as I know), and it was amazing that I could make that happen. It was, as far as I am concerned, actually a minor miracle that she initiated contact in the first place.
I've been considering the question of attraction lately. Allison, for example. When we hooked up originally, there wasn't very much time to get to know each other beforehand. I suppose it could have simply been immediate attraction, but was it something else? Availability, perhaps; we each knew that the other was receptive, and just that was attractive. At that early point, it really could have been either.
This isn't really an important issue, or one that I'm going to pursue, mostly because it's not something that I care that much about. I've got Lannon and I've got Allison.
It just occured to me that there's a deeper issue to this: that is, the nature of relationships. Will Allison be jealous? Are she and I in the kind of relationship where jealousy is an issue?
I'm amazed at how clueless I am about these things. Aren't females supposed to know things about relationships or something? Maybe it's the male hormones or something, I don't know. Jeez.
Anyway, here's some nice juicy fanfic ideas.
VH1 clip shows slash. Michael Ian Black must find another nice D-list celebrity to hook up with.
A crossover with Y Tu Mama Tambien and the third Harry Potter movie. Just because Alfonso Cuaron is cool.
Ozzy Osbourne as a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I don't mean stuttering old fogey MTV sitcom Ozzy, I mean early Ozzy, where he was a brilliant shrieking guitarist who bit the heads off bats and snorted coke and fire ants in equal proportions and pretended to worship Satan. Black Sabbath-era Ozzy.
