While I've already got Brendon's autograph, and got it by hanging out with him after the concert that night, I'm tempted to enter just for the hell of it. Fast is always fun anyway, and it could lead to a unique piece of Dethklok related memorabilia.

Tempting. Very, very tempting.

Though it was announced months ago, I still see no sign of the Dethklok signature guitars being released. There was supposed to be a Gibson and an Epiphone version, both with the same set of EMG pickups Brendon himself uses, both "Skwissgaar Special" black explorers with the white pickguard.

Toki gets no love.

May have to set aside my current musical project and take this one up for a week or two. I could do with a little mindless speed-freak activity.

After the spectacular pen-tossing that BB did to laughing girl yesterday, she ended up having a breakdown of some sort late afternoon. She started talking almost as loud as she usually laughs, really, really fast.

"I mean, like, I just don't, you know? Like there's something, like, just not right, you know? Like, somehow, like, something went wrong, and like, I just know that I need to do something. 'Cause, like, this is just not happening, like, I'm totally I just, don't know. There's something just, like, totally out there. I'm just all screwed up. My brain is like, so scattered right now. I don't get it. Too much going on. There's like, all this stuff to get done, right? And it all, like, needs to be done before the trip, right? But I put my phone on DND and like, the receptionist bitches still come to get me when people call. I can't take much more of this. It's just, like, you know, really! Enough, really. I'm sorry, I'm babbling, aren't I? It's just, like, you know, way too much for one person. But, like, they won't get me help. Something's gotta give, you know?"

I texted BB, "But why did it have to be her mind?"

BB responded, "Yeah, I noticed that."

She didn't stop for about another twenty minutes. Didn't even giggle during that period of time. That's how we knew something bad was going down. When she stops giggling, it's like any normal person stopped breathing.

She did eventually pass out. Her closest boss came running out of his office to see what happened when the noise stopped and revived her quickly. Then she was fine.

Now, the interesting part of all this? She wasn't really talking TO anybody through that whole babble session. She was just talking. Out loud. To no one.

In typical Funhouse fashion, once she was re-awakened and back to somewhat stable everybody goes, "OK, back to work," and that's the end of it. It's just, like, you know, I feel safe.

Thank goodness laughing girl's trip starts soon. She needs to get out for a bit. The stress from working here the last three months or so is really getting to her.

Stay tuned. Maybe we'll have a full-fledged "IMMA KNIFE YOU BACK!" breakdown soon. We are close to the crapateria here, where they keep all the knives and forks.

Randomness:

The aquarium supplies I ordered should be here Friday. So, *THIS* weekend I should be able to do the basic layout. Then, I can order plants and get it all kicked off. Then the fun part. Waiting and watching it grow.

BB took off today to prepare for a business trip. I'm stuck with Zippy and Destro today. Looking forward to seeing how this shakes out, I am not.

Rocks are expensive, yo! Because that shit's in short supply I guess.

Mrs. NFB is full of excitement. She heard China Beach may finally be getting a DVD release and nearly exploded off the couch to come tell me. She's been waiting for that one for a long, LONG time. She also found news The Class may be coming too. At least we'll be able to see it again, even if we don't ever get new episodes.

Enough. Gotta go see what Zippy's trippin' over this morning. Laterz.
