On my way...

2005-06-28T06:50:39Z

Hi all, well I am now out of Tucson. For a dandy journey to a new life. ((Wow that sounds corny…)) Well, I guess I should tell you that our first stop on our two week long road trip was Las Vegas. And it was awesome!!! It is in Sin City that I finally found my life’s purpose. I am going to join the circus. Well, that is the end, lets start at the beginning. Heather and I had SUCH a blast in this first stretch of this vacation. We stayed at the Mirage. Cool. And the strip is so damn hot…HOT!!! Last night we got to go to a show. So, we chose KA, by Cirque du Soliel. I have seen over a dozen shows on Broadway, this blew them away. Yes, this includes Wicked, Ave. Q, and Hairspray. This WAS Final Fantasy the stage performance. With the SEXIST set EVER. My jaw was open the entire time in awe. After gushing with Heather for half an hour she asked, why don’t I join the Cirque. Yes, I’m a freak. I no longer want to be in musical theatre, its to easy… yes, a freak. I have set myself a deadline. In four years I will audition. You know what that means. We made a list. I have to take about a dozen specialized classes. Including gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, trapeze, diablo, dance including interpretive, music, and a few fighting styles for fun… I’m not sure if I’m going to die or have the best time of my life. I know I’m crazy. But this show was THAT good. There are NO WORDS WHATSOEVER!!!!!!!!!!!

Crazy, I’m just so crazy. Well, right now we are between cities and are on our way to Texas to stay with my extended family. So, I will update later.

P.S. Yes, Kalido Star has conquered my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just call me Sora.....

I havent updated in a while, (i know, slaps himself on the wrist.) Well, life is gaing pretty darn well at the moment. Tonight for exaple i got to see the comic genius of gallager. The night was made better because it was one of my best friends moms birthday, and she go to go up on stage, then bobarded by...well... everything immaginable from the fridge and pantry. I am still gushing about the move to Chicago. I also had the BEST time at my last LARP. Being the primpy socilites of the court has finally weiled some fruits. Aka, mass marraiges. I am tired, as you can tell by my writing.

In other news, i will be going to cochella in California. This is a consert fest with handfuls of musical groups playing just for me and my closest hundreds of friends. This trip is perfect, we even get to camp out. If you can call the lastest and best equipment and tons of food, camping. Just give me a pocket knife and a yoga mat and im good to go.

Alot has happened lately, obviously. I would just like to say all is well.

Taran, is now offically pooped.

Bye yall,

Eat, Drink, and be Merry

Hideho,

I realize that I have not kept many post lately so I have some large news, of course there is the move to Chicago. Which seems to have taken a life of its own, and is unstoppable. I cannot explain how much I will love a new city. I am a mover through and through. Going through fourteen moves growing up and five states it is easier for me than most. This time I get to bring one of the most best people ever with me, Heather. Chicago will be good for both of us, on every scale possible.

Besides this I am also taking a trip to New York. I get to see Wicked, Avenue Q, and The Producers. Although I have already seen Wicked I am completely overjoyed. A sad SAD thing hit me the other day. I have run out of Broadway musicals. I have literally seen every single one that I want, and that realization is heartbreaking. I guess now im off to British theatre…

This move will be #5 in two years. I’m not sure how I feel about this yet. Besides that I CANNOT wait to get out of Tucson. I am really pissed right now. That’s right I am actually angry right now, practically one of the only times I have felt this way since moving here. My current anger is aimed at one person, and not the person you might think and not for the reason you might think. I am tired, FUCKING tired of people jumping to conclusions and believing gossip at my expense, I am VERY disappointed at one person in particular. Hypocritical does not even begin to describe it.

There were three people in this city that I would practically do anything for. Period. I am a damn loyal person. Period. I will lie, cheat, steal, practically anything for these three. Period. Well, with a freaking heavy heart my list has shrunken to two. And those two will be taken good care of, and you know who you are, since both of you are having great life events happening now.

Once again, for once, I am pissed.

I really miss theatre… I know I know quite a random thought, but I was just in the shower and something hit me. The very last time I was on stage, almost two years ago, I was the butt of a cow…

Now you may be thinking that I am speaking in metaphors, but no. I was literally the back end of a cow costume. Now, you might ask yourself, what the hell???

I was in the show Gypsy, a nasty show for a high school to pull off. I was cast as Tulsa the singing dancing farm boy… don’t ask. Well, Suzie one of my good friends could not perform her drearier duties the last night of the show. So, my other good friend Kate and I took over for her, in the end… I swear that I am not trying to make puns, but moo-ve over sanity…

Kate took over the main Caroline, the cow, song that required dancing. This was during the first half when I was preoccupied as Tulsa. Then during the second act I would take over as the rear of the cow. Honestly, I volunteered for this part because…Come on, who wouldn’t want to be the butt of a cow at least once in there life.

Therefore the last night of the show I did my thing the first act, then changed into my cow costume. This means that technically, the last time I have been on stage, I was an ass.

Goodness golly and a handbag, batman. I really miss theatre.

Well I am off to El Paso, oh joy. One strange thing about this little dust town, in the middle of nowhere, is that everyone hates it. That its dirty or scary or that you can see mexico from your hotel room. I personally love the city and everything with it. I grew up there, sorta, I lived there for about five years which is only the second longest I have ever grown up in a city. It has culture, however tainted, and really great people...aka my family.

Now for the reason of the trip, my Great Grandmother, known as Grandma Cano, just died. I am not upset about it. My families' dont see death that often. In recent memory there has only been one other death since I started high school, another Great Grandmother. ((Which hopefully I will live a young life up to ninety as well.)) Its just a bit of a shock beacause it is just a rare thing to happen, I mean I have over two hundred close relatives in four families, and we just refuse to die. Im sure there is a keen point to all this but its lost on me, and im just sorta ranting.

I am still not sure if I will go, to be honest. Its only a five hour drive, but Tucson has become sort of a haven for me, dare I use the word home? I feel good here, and comfy, and i adore its people. So why do i want to move anywhere else. I dont handle complex emotions well. I can handle being blue with sadness or red with anger, but when im Technicolor with emotions, I just plain get confused. Why cant life just be like Leave it to Beaver? Or any other bad sitcom from the forties and fifties, ((I call Samantha Stevens)) Where we may have issues that plauge us, but its all resolved in thirty minutes. ((Laugh track and all...)) I dont know what i want, but im sure a laugh track would help.

I guess that im just being whine-e. If i could get any wish, if i could finally catch that leprechaun that has been stalking me from outside my window for the past two months, and that green little trickster would give me a wish, I would want to be normal.

Yep, definatly whineing. I guess normal people dont have leprechauns stalking them ;-) so why bother.

Well, I decided to start up a new journal. Yea i know, I have been kind of a hermit lately. But heres a small update... I am still in Tucson. The trip this winter was rather...well...blah. It was like Loveboat from hell. Sea sickness and all. I did get to go do Disneyworld on X-mas day. It was amazing and about forty degrees and raining. That just meant that the entire park was practically mine. My first ride, Pirates of the body of water located near Flordia...I literally got in line and walked to the little boat that you ride. *Joygasim* I also explained to my little sister that the movie was made from the ride not the ride form the movie. (She will be one of those preppy sorority girls whom i have come to know very well...from a distance.)

Now that i am back in Tucson i have some things to do. First is to move apartments. I need something near...well...anything. Curently i live in the middle of the mountains, and since I have no desire to take part in "When Javelinas Attacks..." I think that is near town would be glorious. Also, I will start hunting for a job. (Puts on hunting gear and butterfly net.)

Also, I am in a new LARP. FOr those of you who have no idea what it is...then you are lucky. These games, where you role play as characters, consumes your soul...But, like i mentioned, I have joined a new one that is based on Feudal Japan. *Massive Joygasims* Thats right yours truly will be in a changeling inspired game, ((We have four diffrent and divivded houses,)) That all combat an evil located at a mystical version of the Great Wall of China. You may ask yourself, the wall is not in Japan, well your right. But, this game is totally everything asian. So far the game only has about twenty five odd people, and its going to start in less than a month. If your intrested the character creation night will be on Feb. 11th. This game will be EVERY friday, and will be filled with politics, secret alliances, and Feudal warfare. *Once again Joygasim*

Besides that my life has been going slow, very slow. The only socail thing I have done lately has been GM'ing my own table top named "Bump in the Night." This great game is my own little sadistic pleasure... sorry players. So far in the game, loosely based on World of Darkness, we have a SanGiovanni Ghoul, a whoresome Wizard, a secritarial SandWitch, and an Asian psudo-Vampire... And many more wackiness to follow.

I would also like to recommend a book series. The Harry Dresden Files, by Jim Butcher. The first book in the series is entitled Storm Front. These books are the cross between the Anita Blake series, Harry Potter, and The Seires of Unfortunate Events. If you are looking for a GREAT read, grab this randomly awesome book.

Well, I guess that this will conclude my update for today. Everyone be safe.
