With Fall I Rise

It is beginning. Solemn faces look at me, people are aware of the coming changes and everybody is afraid...The fall. It is the bearer of awareness, the reminder of loneliness and you can´t get away from it.
But to me, it´s grey clouds, the days of rain and the dying leaves are a joy.
There is nothing I love more than walking under those darkening clouds, having a cold wind dancing around me and reminding me of past times.
Mostly smiling, I wander the city, thinking an wondering, what is to come. The passion for this season I try to share, although I rarely have success.
It is the time I cherish lonelyness and listen to the music of raindrops and falling leaves, the time death and silence are friends of my thoughts.
Do never let Gaia´s humors bother you, let the thoughts and feelings they awaken in your deepest sink in, and cherish...

Guns n Vamps

I have this thing for vampire stories...I don´t know why exactly, maybe because they are so much simpler than normal human stuff (to bite or not to bite), or maybe because it´s even more complicated (It´s our wedding, did you have to eat the priest?)...

Anyway, some of the best stuff I´ve read is Laurell K. Hamilton´s Anita Blake novels.
Anity Blake is this petite lady who lives in a St.Louis where it´s normal that vampires have their own bars and who likes to shoot first and ask questions later (mostly). But the really cool part is that it is really about all the charming vampires and werewolves she meets, who - of course - are all in love with her. So, you have the blood splattering, zombie fighting, monster hunting part and the romantic, oh-we-can´t-cause-you´re-the-bad-guy part.

I really recommend it to all vamp-lovers. Here are a few quotes so you get the why...

"Paranoia is just another word for longevity."

"Jesus, are all vampiresover two hundred perverts?"
"I am over two hundred," Jean-Claude said.
"I rest my case."

"There are only two kinds of vampire hunters: good ones and dead ones."

"Polly isn't it? I have been on my feet for over thirteen hours. If you do not put Richard on the phone right now, I am going to come down there personally and bust your ass. Am I making myself clear?"
.... I spent the next fifteen minutes convincing a crying werewolf that I wasn't going to hurt her. My life was getting too strange even for me.

Being funny...again

The Price of Beauty

Is it normal to sit in front of a mirror and practice the movement of your lips? Or how you move your hands while talking? Sure, if your an actor, it is actually necessary. But, what if your just that average person, who goes to school or to work or whatever the heck you do? Are you playing a role? Does reality become a play to you?
Those question cross my mind when I talk to people who just seem be perfect - not as a person, but aesthetically. It's just beautiful to watch them. But I know for a fact, that some of those practice the art of talking.
So, if you are an actor of life, where does your personality go? You don't "act" naturally anymore, so it's not really your personality you are showing the rest of the world, but little moves that you copy from some person you saw on tv.
Maybe it's like selling your soul. You give up your personality and naturality, but, you get to be admired for your beatiful gestures and stuff.
Yeah, that's so cool...

Carnivalé

If you're weird, have style and are totally into the awsome world of magic and wonders, you have to see the HBO series "Carnivalé". Google it, buy it, watch it and then cry when it's finished after the second season. For the guys: Adrienne Barbeau. I mean...and otherwise cool actors and a lot of sex.
Just check it out. (Now).
