So how is the dating going, you ask? Well last night I amused myself by coloring in my dragon coloring book (of 14th century dragon designs-- a coloring book I got at The Cloisters like 15 years ago). Tip: don't cheap out on the crayons. "RoseArt" off-brand crayons are like coloring with candle stubs. Tonight I did laundry. And now I'm getting a boost from reading my collection of Bad Guy lines. I keep this little notebook handy near my comfy chair - I titled it "Notes From The Dark Side: Studies of Villainry." Many are from Buffy episodes. Some are from Angel, some from SG1, some from Inuyasha, some from Miyazaki movies... and the occasional [making the "guilty pleasure" face] Charmed episode. The title of this entry was something I think Angel said to Buffy. Here some others I enjoy:
I care about deadlines!
You've been spending too much time with humans.
It'll all be over too fast and you'll be dead and I'll be bored.
You are not here to provide information. You are here for my amusement.
You will bow to my awesome power.
I appreciate loyalty.
You lied to me. You made a mistake. You are sorry.
It's the end of humanity, not the end of courtesy.
How dare you summon me?!
You can't take me. No one can take me.
Can't a woman wreak a little havoc without there being a man involved?
I don't miss my heartbeat.
Come with me. It is the only way.
I wish you could feel what I'm feeling right now.
Ah yes, the whole god issue. Maybe we did take it a little too far... Can you blame us?
I shall savor your defiance.
Ah, I miss Buffy. My favorite Big Bad was Glorificus. That actress will never have such an interesting ass-kicking role ever again.
I watched Miyazaki's "Castle in the Sky" yesterday and really enjoyed Dola, the Pirate Captainess- that was another great anti-hero. The voicing by Cloris Leachman was just wonderful.
Some more lines I enjoy:
We can bring order to the galaxy.
I'm here to kill you, not to judge you.
Oh my God! Well, not my God, because I defy Him and all of His works...
And, last, a special thought for the evening... in the cold foggy grey area of silence following a second date...
- Everybody feels alone. Everybody is, until you die.
