| so me and a group of friends including a guy named dillon in real life and kyoko in fake life were playing around in the backyard of my childhood home. The radio is reporting how everyone's worried about spaceships and nuclear power and how they use oxygen and that it's probably not a good idea for the spaceships to release the oxygen they use back into the atmosphere. Suddenly a gigantic spaceship blots out the sky as it flies over us. We all get curious as it lands on the other end of the field (how it did this, I don't know, it was HUGE). We climb in the spaceship. We're in an empty room and fog is pouring out behind us into the field. We walk across the room and into the next, and in there we find some guy and... Arthur C. Clarke. We walk back to the room before, and in the center is a small display. One of us walks up and grabs a small metal string thing and begins flailing it around. It stretches to about 100 feet long and sounds like a tape measurer whenever it bends. Arthur C. Clarke runs in freaking out that we have no idea what we're doing. The metal keeps emitting a red beam of light which we all understand to be infrared light(even though you can't see infrared light). Anyway, we climb out of the spaceship, and go walk over to my pond. These giant lily pads are there and we all start jumping on them. We are jumping when someone points out that at the bottom of the pond is a Bible opened up to revelations. He reads the verse as night falls: "the _______ will come from there" and as he says this he points up to the sky, where the stars are all out, except for where he's pointing. There's a circle of blackness with no stars, but just a yellow glow in the center, and for some reason there's another smaller no star circle witha yellow dot underneath it. We stare at it for a while, as if it was some sort of 3d eye trick, and for a second it doe slook like it gets bigger. then it does get bigger. Then it turns out to be some kind of monster scrolling across the sky. Only it's 8bit and printed on paper. they just keep scrolling across as if we were supposed to shoot them, but instead we watch. some of them are eyeballs and smaller, some of them ar esomething you'd see in the original zelda, like the statues that come to life. the rail/string they are hanging from curves down and goes around the pond, and one of the guys i'm with watches it until it's right on top of him, then it like sticks on him and kills him or something. Kyoko points at it and steps back, but we all know she won't die because she's the girl. I look back and my friend Dillon is sitting on a truck or tractor something and talking on his cellphone. We try to get him to realize what's going on but he makes hand gestures to tell us to hold on. Kyoko and I and a a few other people run around the pond, and the "monsters follow along on the rail. Finally my friend gets off the phone, but by that time we've realized we can just rip off the monsters and tear them up.

| my internet is completely gone. darn. | | |
| I love when people flip out their phones(literally) and ask for my cell phone number, only to stare unbelieving that I don't have one. Also I still haven't memorized my new home phone number. Yay. | | |

| So the guy, J. Kirk Pleasant, said he needs to come back down here eventually to show his old friends his wife and new baby. He said also, about the possibility of him and I putting on a little show. I'm not trying to make the guy out to be this super amazing guy or anything. I know he's just a person. But he's played with some of my favourite E6 bands. and people... like Olivia Tremor Control, Gerbils, Marshmallow Coast, etc. So when he mentions something like this to me, it's kinda scary. First off, I can't really claim any high level of musicianship. Second, I rarely ever play my songs in front of even close friends. Also, the guy's music is incredible. Well, not mind blowing or anything, but the lyrics and simplicity of his latest album really struck a chord with me. | | |
