Long Weekend
Yurts May 29th, 2006Saw the first of the summer blockbusters on Friday.
It suffered from a surprising lack of yurts. Not as good as the first two movies in the Yurtmen franchise, but definitely worth watching.
Best part of the movie was when Phoenix lights the yurt encampment on fire and Magneto saves the yurtmen from a crispy demise by pulling them to safety by the metal fillings in their teeth! Man . . . who thinks this stuff up! Guess that’s why these guys are working for the big studios in Hollywood and I’m not.
In other news, still working on the book (haven’t been able to update the progress bar, but I will tomorrow). I may even get some writing done today, if I can ignore the crazy south-of-the-border music blasting from the apartment next door. When did Rascal Flatts start singing in Spanish?

One day you will get a yurt, and then what will you do? You’re whole life’s purpose will be achieved, and from that point on your existence will seem pale and shallow like a saucer of sour milk. And you won’t even get to drink the milk, because the kitten of despair won’t let you. It will drink it up, drink up the sad sour milk of your life, and you will be left dry and empty as a bone, fit only to be buried by the doggy of ironic anguish. And then centuries later, you will be dug up by an archeologist, who will put you on display in a musuem, and people will come from miles around to stare mutely at the remains of the sad and pathetic yurtboy.

Your comment certainly made me laugh, Tab. However . . . I may be a mere “yurtboy” now, but some day I will be a Yurtman, defender of the doggies of ironic anguish!

Why would you want to defend the demon doggies that–Kruschev-like–want to bury you in their cindered, smoking backyard? But whatever. It’s your yurt. You can do whatever you like with it.

“Does Isaac seem depressed to you?”
“Yeah, he’s really in the dogyurt.”
Heh, that reads like someone suffered a muscle spasm while trying to spell “yogurt.”

That’s how I misread it the first time.
He’s really in the yogurt now.
