Word Configurations: Sentences by Me!

Supposed to be working. I am not. Instead I am finding pictures of the majesty that is Christopher Walken. My hero, my idol, my nightmare, in one frightening and shiny package. I mean, just look at this:

And again:

For more googled glory, contact the champion of champions (er... me!)

Procrastination: Not a Sonnet
Forty two and a half minutes later
Two bathroom breaks
One flavoured water
Another bathroom break
Two episodes of Drew Carey
Three visits to imdb.com
Rough outlines for a screenplay
That I will write
before I write this stupid essay,
I call it "Shatnerphone: The Epic"
Tagline?
"Ashes to ashes,
and dust to dust,
Shatner is coming,
to the future or bust!"
100% historically accurate,
and invisible to the naked eye.
Nothing but explosions
and sexually charged, all-Shatner
Robo-chorus lines.
Away I go,
to delay even more,
you can help me conceive
even more premature
and promising
future motion pictures.
Otherwise,
work must happen.
Let us pray
it doesnt come to that.
Shatners AWAAAAAY.

By the way, my and Sam's (guy what is my brother) plan to eliminate the "Zoom Zoom" kid (Operation Zoom Zoom: Mazda Go Boom-Boom) is underway. Forecast: TOTAL AND ULTIMATE SUCCESS!

That is all of the word configurations. I hope I stimulated your brain and/or your happy places.

Sarrah the Tangible.

DAY TWO: AND THE BOREDOM CONTINUES

Tuesday, right? It's only Tuesday? Shit. I'm going to have to perform strange medical procedures on ... well .. anything within reach of my reaching broom. You may not be conjoined with anything now, but if I get bored enough...
Anyway, its my second day in solitary confinement. But today, I got the most exciting trip into the harsh reality of daylight, for... AN ORTHODONTIST APPOINTMENT! I can practically hear your envy. I made the long, grueling trek to Goderich (20 minutes away), where I was prodded at by an old man with rubber gloves for a while. Then I went to the orthdontist. He looked at me, said "Want 'em off?", I nodded, and then left. Now the excrutiating wait until they call The Deb (mommy) to make the appointment. I am de-elastic-ified, though. I guess it was worth changing out of pyjamas. Now for the next, and longest, two days of my life. I will be most likely found making a fort, or on MySpace. UPN is not good daytime (or primetime, for that matter) television. I have watched the Steve Harvey Show more than any white teenage girl ever should. I'm not good at dealing at boredom, or waiting. Now I have the worst combination of the two. I might have to... like... clean. Shit. But you know what is fun? When your mom breaks the silence in the car, by asking about your boyfriend. And lecturing you about... well... you know. And my options. Turn the music up a notch. And another. Drown it out. Sigh.
...
AND NOW A LIST!

Wag of the Finger:

March Break: Long, boring, solitary. The end.
Braces: Pretty much the whole ordeal, but now, especially, the wait to get them off. And the stuff that becomes more difficult with them on (ie. anything that requires a mouth.)
Places that people go to: That means you, Toronto.
Height, and the people that have it in spades: You're doing it just to spite me.
Daytime TV: Dare I say it, too much Cosby.
American Idol: 'Nuff said.
Herbivores: Pussies.
The Weather Channel: Control the weather (make it warmer), and then I'll watch. Also pussies.
Being mentioned on the blog of your boyfriend's friend: Wagging the finger, but also blushing and looking bewildered.
Smurfs: Too good for a full-length feature film?
Xena: Same as above.
Nature: Can't even outwit herbivores.
Dancing: If it's not dirty, it doesnt count.

Jesus: See Daytime TV.

Okay, that just gradually got more and more ridiculous. But that's my week for ya. I guess I've been watching too much Colbert. If there was such a thing.

Only two more days to go before Toronto gives back to me what is rightfully mine. Until then, beware the reaching broom.

gday.

PS!

Okay, so I just wrote a bloggy-do thing liek 42.7 seconds ago, but I forgot to say:

I LOVE SIX DEGREES.

If you dont know what that is, you will self-destruct in 30 seconds. Or I will just have to explain it to you.
There is actually TWO ways to play this highly-addictive/greatest game of all time.

THE FIRST WAY!
All right, now be warned: if you have minimal to no movie knowledge, regarding actors, co-hosts, film titles, and televison appearances, you will be crushed by your co-player, namely, me.

So now you're ready to play, huh? Well, if you're sure.
Pick an actor/actress. It's easier to play if you pick someone who has been in a lot of freaking movies, unless you want a challenge, which you don't... yet.
Now, what you have to do is connect this actor, through different actors, and back to him/herself. FOR EXAMPLE: Doug E. Doug, who you may remember as the lovable "Sanka" from the movie classic, "Cool Runnings".
Doug E. Doug was in Cool Runnings with John Candy, who was in Stripes with Bill Murray, who was in Wild Things with Neve Campbell, who was in Scream with Courteney Cox, who was in Friends, with Lisa Kudrow, who was in The Opposite of Sex with Christina Ricci who was in That Darn Cat with Doug E. Doug. Ta-da.

What you are SUPPOSED to do is connect these actors in only 6 steps, hence the name Six Degrees. But you know what? Fuck you. Ninety-thousand degrees is astonishingly more fun. Period. All right, have you got it yet?


THE SECOND WAY!
So, you think you've mastered six degrees? Well, YOU'RE WRONG. There is another, more traditional way of playing.

Pick an actor/actress. Okay, got that? (Sarrah, how is this different from the other way? wahhhhh) QUIET, UNIDENTIFIED INQUISITOR!
Once you have picked an actor... PICK ANOTHER ONE. Bet you didn't see that one coming. Now you're really supposed to pick Kevin Bacon (get it? Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon?) but it isnt necessary. I will now use the same Doug E. Doug pattern but this time we will get to, for example purposes, Kevin Bacon.
Doug E. Doug was in Cool Runnings with John Candy who was in Stripes with Bill Murray who was in Wild Things with Kevin Bacon. Now wasn't that practically orgasmic?

Now I know what you are all thinking. WHY WAS BILL MURRAY IN WILD THINGS? Well regardless, this is probably the greatest game on earth. Unfortunately, Six Degrees players/enthusiasts are a rare species. So if you have a deep, secret passion for this game, I am willing to play morning, noon and night. I can be found in the deepest depths of Clinton. OR add me --- coolhandsarrah@hotmail.com.

Let's play.

PS. Extra points if you can get to Judd Nelson or Patrick Swayze.
