Blood Monsters

Hello everyone who reads this...all four of you. Things have happened recently so let's catch up.

First I had a horrible experience giving my blood about two weeks ago. I go to donate and get strapped into the chair. They put the needle in and shit is going pretty smooth. Then all of a sudden, there is a beep. My blood has stopped flowing from my veins. They move the needle around under my skin,which was horrifying. The blood started flowing again and the BEEEEP! It stopped again. They bring a guy over who is clearly a specialist in this situation seeing as how he did nothing but shove the needle into my arm even farther up and higher. It hurt so much. Blood once again resumes draining from my arm and then that damn beep starts up again. I'm told that my blood is clotting in my veins and that they can't use what they took from me because they need all the coagulants my body can muster. So in arm pain and feeling slightly perturbed I go to get my free blood cookies and juice after I receive the much coveted Indiana Blood Center hat that doesn't fit me. I watch as Caitlin gives blood and slowly slips in and out of consciousness as a large woman she referred to as Bubby drains her of her fluids and tries to keep her awake.

it was a harrowing experiences for me and the Mrs. but we pulled through. I was assured that nothing like this would happen again if I decided to deplete my fluids for the good of man kind, but I don't think I will.So that's about it. I will post more soon. Enjoy.

Now here is something bloody and fun.

Confusing Japanese Cartoon Things

So occasionally I go on to wikipedia and look up random stuff when I am procrastinating. Today I am procrastinating on a story for my creative writing class. Any way I decided to look up stuff about Cartoon Network and the different shows that were on it. After having watched almost the entire marathon of The Powerepuff Girls last month I decide to type that in and check out how the show was created.Was I suprised to find out that the show has a Japanese spin-off that was made after the original show ended in 2003.It is called Powerpuff Girls Z and it is all fucked up.

I sat and watched clips because I didn't believe it was real and trust me it is all to real.They took a cartoon that was generally funny and enjoyable and turned it into a horrifying bastardized pile of Japanese weirdness.Craig McCraken,who has created some of my favorite animated shows like The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, more than likely had no control over the decision to make a hyper-active seizure inducing mess of a show like this,but Cartoon Network did and for that I say shame on you.

Anyway if you want to check out the adventures of "Hyper Blossom","Rolling Bubles",and "Powered Buttercup" here is a link to the website.
